Crossing the Palace Fighting Fox Harem

Chapter 269 The Past is Long

Time still passes slowly and will not stop for anyone because of grief and sadness.

During the endless waiting, the boy never gave up. He never thought that the girl had deceived him. He always stood under the tree, looked up at the lush branches and leaves above his head, and immersed himself in the memories of his childhood.

He kept waiting and waiting for the girl to appear again, but he never waited.

Later, he had his own queen, a group of concubines, and many princes and princesses, but he was still waiting bitterly, waiting for a shadow whose face had become blurred...

Finally one day, the boy heard people say that the sacred tree had blossomed, and the tree was full of crystal white flowers as bright as snow.

The boy suddenly remembered the conversation between the two when he first met the girl under the tree many years ago.

"What are you looking at?"

"I'm waiting for the tree to bloom."

"This tree does not bloom."

"It blooms. I have seen it. It has the most beautiful white flowers."

"I have never seen it bloom since I was born. You look no older than me. When did you see it bloom?"

"It was a long time ago, so long ago that I even forgot when it was..."

"A year ago? Two years ago? Ten years ago?"

"No, none of them... It seems to be a hundred years ago, two hundred years ago, or maybe... a thousand years ago."

Thousands of years ago, thousands of years ago...these four words kept circling in the boy's mind.

Until this moment, the boy seemed to have guessed the girl's identity for the first time. Maybe... the girl was not a human at all, but just a monster who enjoyed teasing humans. Under her beautiful appearance, she only had a heart that despised humans.

The boy laughed wildly, laughing at himself for being fooled by a joke from a monster all his life.

That night, the boy had a dream. In the dream, his soul left his body and floated quietly under the sacred tree.

There, he finally saw the figure that he had been dreaming about for decades.

The girl turned around and smiled at him. Her smile was still beautiful, but it also revealed a bit of sadness and pain.

The girl finally confessed her identity to the boy. She said: I am a demon, and now I have cultivated to become an immortal. Tonight I will fly up to the sacred tree and ascend to the immortal world. From now on, I will never see you again. Please forget me...

After leaving these words, the girl's figure gradually became transparent.

The boy wanted to keep her, rushed forward and grabbed her, but he could no longer hold her. The girl's body was like a wisp of smoke, blown away by the night wind, and disappeared silently into the cold night sky along with the white petals flying all over the sky.

The story ends here, and the love affair also reaches its end here.

This is the story that has been passed down in the Tianyou Holy Dynasty Palace, about how Taizu fell in love with a fox demon.

But this story is not complete, there is a sequel - only Yan Niang knows this sequel.

Next, Yanniang finished telling Ji Anni the story.

In fact, the girl did not ascend to heaven that night. She deceived the boy just to stay with him.

Not as a monster, but as a human, staying with the boy.

In fact, the girl has always wanted to become a human being, so she has been searching hard for a way to become a human being.

But she failed, she could not become a human. Later, because she wanted to become a human so much, she used a forbidden technique, a forbidden technique that allowed her to possess a human and continue to live in that person's place.

At that time, there was a concubine who was seriously ill in the palace.

When the concubine was dying, the girl used a forbidden technique on her, allowing herself to possess the concubine.

Three months later, the concubine died of illness, and the girl took over the concubine's body and continued to live as a concubine.

Everyone else in the palace thought that the concubine had suddenly recovered overnight, but in fact it was just another life that borrowed that body to continue living.

The purpose is just to stay with the man she loves like a human being and grow old with him.

However, when using this forbidden technique, one must abide by an agreement, which is that the secret of breaking the forbidden technique must never be told to anyone.

If the secret of the forbidden technique were revealed and people knew that the concubine was possessed by a fox demon, then the forbidden technique would become ineffective.

The fox demon's soul will be separated from the concubine's body and can never be integrated again.

Although she couldn't tell the boy her true identity, the girl stayed by his side in her own way. But the boy didn't love her, no matter how hard she tried, he never loved her again.

The boy always went to the tree to remember the girl who had passed away, but he never knew that the girl had not left, but had always been by his side, but he was unaware of it. He broke the girl's heart, but the girl did not blame him.

Because from the very beginning, the girl knew what price she would pay for using the forbidden technique - she would become her own love rival, and she would cause herself lifelong pain.

But she had no regrets. She was easily satisfied and was always immersed in the little happiness of being able to watch him silently.

Although the girl was satisfied with this, one of her friends could no longer bear it.

The girl’s friend is Yan Niang, a red fox who has known the girl for thousands of years.

Yan Niang cast a lightning spell, causing huge thunder to strike down the sacred tree, in order to destroy the place where the boy missed the fox demon. She wanted to use this method to make the boy completely forget the fox demon, and cherish the people around him again - cherish the girl who possessed a human.

The sacred tree fell, but the boy still didn't fall in love with the girl.

But the good news is that many years later, the girl finally had the boy's child.

The girl was very happy and immersed in the happiness of being a human mother.

But this hard-earned happiness has already sown the seeds of disaster.

The child was born, a little princess, but this little princess had a tail and ears, and a pair of amber eyes.

The palace servants began to panic, saying that the concubine was a fox demon who wanted to eat people, and that the little princess was also a monster, and that they must be burned at the stake to ensure that they would never be reborn.

Finally, the boy ordered the mother and daughter to be tied up and burned to death in the yard - this yard later became the Demon-Suppressing Temple.

In the burning, the concubine's body turned into ashes, and the fox demon soul attached to the body turned into a fox bead.

All of the girl’s magical powers and memories are condensed in this fox bead.

Before she died, the girl used her last bit of strength to move her child, the little princess, out of the palace.

This transfer method is the spell that Yanniang cast on Zhaoji later. However, Yanniang's spell failed due to Yun Zhen's obstruction, and only Zhaoji's soul was transferred away, so Ji Anni possessed Zhaoji's body. But many years ago, the girl's spell was very successful, and she successfully transferred her child from the burning ground to outside the palace.

Later, Yan Niang found the child and has been taking care of her ever since.

As the child grew up, his fox ears and tail disappeared, and his eye color turned black. He became just like an ordinary human being, married an equally ordinary human being, and had children.

Seeing that the child finally lived a happy life like a human being, Yan Niang left her silently and returned to the palace of the Tianyou Dynasty as a palace maid.

She wanted to protect the fox bead here because the fox bead contained the lifelong magical power of one of the most important friends in her life.

This happened twenty-three years ago.

But just twenty years after Yan Niang returned to the palace, that is, three years ago, something happened in the palace that made Yan Niang choose to leave the palace.

She thought she could live a peaceful life after leaving the palace. However, thousands of miles away in Qi State, the fox demon child she thought had lived a happy life had already given birth to a girl and named her "Zhao Ji".

Zhao Ji is the third generation of fox demon. With the fusion of the blood of the first two generations of humans, she is already very close to humans. She has no fox ears or tail and was born in human form, so no one doubts that she has fox demon blood flowing in her body.

Zhao Ji could have lived peacefully in Qi like an ordinary human being.

But fate played a trick on her, and God's will made her a maid in the Qi Palace.

In the Qi Palace, she met Long Mohan, the man who brought her love but also brought her disaster.

Zhao Ji fell in love with Long Mohan and gave birth to his child, the fourth generation of fox demon - Prince Ming.

Prince Ming was closer to human than Zhao Ji.

If the family of three had lived in the Qi Palace thousands of miles away all their lives and never set foot on the land of the Tianyou Holy Dynasty, then perhaps their peaceful and happy life could have lasted a lifetime. However, the death of King Hui gave Long Mohan the opportunity to return to his homeland.

Zhao Ji and Prince Ming returned to the Tianyou Holy Dynasty with Long Mohan as his wife and children.

On their way back to the palace, Yan Niang leaned on the railing of Xianghong Tower and saw Zhao Ji's figure.

At a glance, she recognized that the woman was the descendant of a fox demon.

As the third generation of fox demon, Zhao Ji is already very close to humans, but if she gets too close to the fox beads left by the first generation, the evil spirit lurking in her body will be stimulated, and her instincts as a fox demon will slowly awaken.

Yan Niang couldn't bear to watch Zhao Ji turn back into a fox demon, so she immediately rushed back to the palace in the form of a fox and threatened the Queen Mother not to let Yan Niang and Prince Ming enter the palace under any circumstances.

The Queen Mother agreed to Yan Niang's request, so Zhao Ji and Prince Ming were blocked from entering the palace. Fortunately, they were later taken in by Yan Niang in Xianghonglou, so they did not have to wander the streets. However, three months later, the Queen Mother suddenly broke her promise and sent someone to take Zhao Ji and Prince Ming into the palace.

At this time, Yan Niang had already sold Xianghonglou and planned to take Zhaoji and Prince Ming away from Tianyou Holy Dynasty. However, the Queen Mother's breach of contract not only prevented Yan Niang from taking Zhaoji and Prince Ming away, but also caused Yan Niang to lose her place to live.

The Queen Mother felt guilty for breaking her promise and suggested that Yan Niang return to the palace.

In order to protect Zhaoji and Prince Ming, Yanniang agreed to return to the palace and become the managing aunt of the East and West Concubine Palaces.

After this betrayal, a deep rift appeared between Yan Niang and the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother began to fear Yan Niang, while Yan Niang began to resent the Queen Mother.

Although the relationship between the two was not completely broken, it could never be restored to the same state.
