Chapter 1 Journey to Another World
The Kingdom of Qingqiu is to the north, and its foxes have four legs and nine tails. (From the Classic of Mountains and Seas)
Among the foxes of Qingqiu, the nine-tailed fox has the purest bloodline. The Qingqiu Fox Emperor has nine children, and Hu Xiaojiu is the youngest and the most pampered in the family.
Despite being pampered, the emperor and empress never relaxed her cultivation. For some reason, she had not differentiated any other tails even after reaching adulthood, which made the emperor and empress very anxious.
“Your Majesty, yesterday I observed the celestial phenomena for the little princess and discovered that her opportunity does not lie with us, but in another world. Only in another world can the little princess successfully differentiate into nine tails, undergo the heavenly tribulation, and become a true nine-tailed fox.”
The Fox Emperor of Qingqiu was troubled by how his daughter, who had not yet differentiated into nine tails, could undergo the heavenly tribulation to become a true nine-tailed fox. However, the words of the Qingqiu priest gave him renewed hope.
He and the Fox Queen searched day and night through the ancient books left by the ancestors of Qingqiu, but they could not find a case like Xiao Jiu's. They were afraid that their youngest daughter really could not differentiate into other tails and could only be a nine-tailed fox with one tail, which they were afraid she could not bear.
Now that's good, there's a way to save her. It's just another world, right? Xiao Jiu should be an adult by now, it's time to let her go out and get some experience.
"Jiu Jiu, is it still not working?" A childish voice came from above Fox Xiao Jiu's head. The one who spoke was Xiao Jiu's companion spirit plant, which only she had. She didn't know why the little fox needed a little grass as a companion spirit, since foxes don't eat grass.
But it was something she had since birth, and it wasn't part of her diet, so she just lived with it like that for hundreds of years, and it became a friend to her.
"Little Radish, don't worry, my father said he will find a way to solve this for me." Fox Xiao Jiu was quite carefree. Anyway, she wasn't an adult yet, and with so many older brothers and sisters protecting her, she wouldn't be bullied even if she didn't become a nine-tailed fox.
"Little Princess, the Fox Emperor summons you to the main hall." A maidservant called her from outside the door. Upon hearing that it was her father calling her, she transformed into a little fox and darted out. Two legs are no match for four.
Before the Fox Emperor could even see what was rushing towards him, his hand instinctively reached out to catch it, and Little Nine ended up in his father's arms.
"She's almost an adult, how can she be so energetic every day?"
Although the Fox Emperor seemed to be lecturing her, the way he stroked her fur was very gentle. "No matter how old you are, you're still Daddy's daughter." Xiao Jiu jumped down from the Fox Emperor's arms and transformed into human form.
"Daddy, why did you call me?" Fox Xiao Jiu knew that her father and mother had been busy with her lately because her tail hadn't differentiated yet. Could it be that they had come up with a good solution?
"Your priestess found a way to separate your tail yesterday, but you need to go to another world. Your destiny lies in another world. I called you here today so that you can prepare well. Tomorrow at midnight is the best time to open the other world. Then you will have to go and experience it on your own."
Listening to the Fox Emperor's words, the Fox Queen felt a little sad. This was the first time her youngest daughter was leaving her side, with no certainty of when she would return.
Fox Xiao Jiu immediately noticed that her mother was a little unhappy, so she snuggled up to her and gently nuzzled her with her little head. "Mommy, don't be sad. I'll try my best to succeed in my cultivation as soon as possible and come back to find you. I'll think about you every day."
As her daughter gently nuzzled her, the Fox Queen softly stroked her daughter's head. "My dear, there's no need to rush your cultivation. Let it take its natural course. With your parents not around, you must take good care of yourself."
They weren't too worried about anything else. Although their daughter was a girl, they had made sure she learned everything she needed to, so even if she couldn't use spiritual energy in another world, it wouldn't be a big problem.
Seeing that her mother had recovered her composure, Hu Xiaojiu felt relieved. She couldn't bear to see her beautiful mother sad.
She was leaving tomorrow and wanted to go back to see if there were any treasures she could take with her. "Daddy, Mommy, I'm going back to pack my things!" she said and ran off.
The Fox Emperor and Fox Queen exchanged a smile. This child was really boisterous and boisterous, not at all like a little girl. But they were happy about it, after all, they doted on the child.
Fox Xiaojiu returned to her room and rummaged through all her treasures, looking here and there. Hmm, it seemed like she had no use for any of these things. These were all treasures that people would fight over outside, but to her they were just ordinary trinkets.
These things are useless in this other world, they can't be used with spiritual energy, and those related to spiritual energy are even more useless. But even though her things are useless, she still has her older brother and sister's treasures. If she can't use her own, she can just ask her older brother and sister to make her usable ones.
"Which big bastard should I go find first? Oh no, which brother should I go find first?" Fox Xiaojiu's eyes darted around. She had an idea. She would go find Seventh Brother first. Seventh Brother was skilled in medicine. She could ask Seventh Brother to make her some small pills, the kind without spiritual energy, which could be made with ordinary medicinal materials. That would be fine.
Fox Qi was organizing her medicinal herbs when she suddenly sneezed. She was a little confused. Could someone be thinking of her? No way, could someone be eyeing her? Could it be that Xiao Jiu again?
Otherwise, no one else would bother with her. Thinking this, Fox Qi prepared to pack up the herbs she had dried and then run away. She couldn't let Xiao Jiu catch her, or all her spiritual herbs would be lost.
"Seventh Brother—" Speak of the devil and he appears. Before Fox Qi could finish tidying up, he heard the voice of a little rascal. He knew then that he was probably not going to escape.
"Little Nine, what brings you here?" Fox Qi asked, while simultaneously putting medicinal herbs into her storage ring. "Seventh Brother, don't be so scared, okay? I don't need these spiritual herbs this time. Don't worry, I saw you secretly hiding them. Stop hiding them, I don't need them this time."
Seeing that her seventh brother was so wary of her, Xiao Jiu pouted so much that she could hang an oil lamp on her lips. All she did was take half of his spiritual herbs last time. The main thing is that Little Radish can only eat spiritual herbs to cultivate, and she is too lazy to go out and pick them. So she just secretly took a little bit of her seventh brother's medicinal herbs. What a stingy person.
Fortunately, Hu Qi didn't know what Xiao Jiu was thinking, otherwise he would definitely be furious. This little rascal steals his spiritual herbs every few days. Last time he came back, he saw that the pharmacy was half empty, and his heart broke. That half was enough for him to use for more than a month, and he just took it away. It took him half a year just to fill that half.
"Then what are you doing here this time?" Hu Qi still loves his sister after all. After all, she is his only sister. Although she sometimes makes him so angry that he grinds his teeth, she is still his own flesh and blood.
"I'm going to another world tomorrow, and I'm worried that I can't use spiritual power there. All my treasures will be useless. I was thinking that you, Seventh Brother, know about medicine, so could you get me some medicine without spiritual power? Please, Seventh Brother!" Xiao Jiu blinked her big, bright eyes. She was no longer the girl who had been pouting and arguing earlier.
