Chapter 659: Chapter 659: Qingqiu Nine-Tailed Fox

"If you want the God Temple, I’ll give it to you,"

the Black Butterfly Fairy said with a light laugh, catching a peach blossom petal in her hand, her tone playful, as if joking.

Qin Jun shook his head, thinking to himself, ghost would believe her words.

"Fine, in three days, I’ll bring two mighty warriors with me to the God Temple," Qin Jun said as he stood up, with Daji and Liu Ruolai rising as well.

Neither of them interjected because they believed that nothing would go wrong with Qin Jun’s trip to the God Temple.

"I’ll go find an inn in the city to stay,"

said the Black Butterfly Fairy, turning to leave as she spoke.

"Wait, why not stay at Saint Emperor Peak!" Qin Jun called out to her, having come all this way, how could he let someone who had helped him so much stay in an inn?

He could distinguish true sentiments from falsehoods.

The moment when the Black Butterfly Fairy stood in front of him during Divine Wuji’s attack, Qin Jun understood her heart.

Upon hearing this, the Black Butterfly Fairy turned to look at him and smiled, "Then thank you very much."

"You guys take her to find a place to stay,"

Qin Jun said to Daji with a smile, but he noticed a hint of gloom on her face, and a thought crossed his mind, guessing her feelings.

Daji quickly composed herself and then, with a smile, walked out of the pavilion, followed by Liu Ruolai; the three women disappeared down the shaded path from Qin Jun’s view.

"System, if we allow Daji to restore her peak God and Demon powers, how strong could she become?" Qin Jun pondered inwardly.

In "Investiture of the Gods," Daji wasn’t very strong at all, basically cannon fodder.

"You don’t have to solely choose the version from ’Investiture of the Gods.’ This Daji’s origin is a Nine-Tailed Fox; the system will select the strongest Nine-Tailed Fox from mythology for Daji to inherit its powers,"

the system finally spoke after a three-second hesitation, causing Qin Jun’s eyes to light up.

After all, he had two opportunities to reach the God and Demon peak; he might as well give one to Daji.

He really didn’t want to see the beauty’s heart hurt.

The arrival of the Black Butterfly Fairy did not cause much of a stir.

Night fell quickly.

Qin Jun went to Daji’s sleeping palace and found her sitting at the window sill, staring at the bright moon in a daze.

This scene made Qin Jun feel both heartache and amusement, recalling the first time he saw Daji when she was so high above him, a heavenly sight.

Now, Qin Jun’s cultivation had far surpassed hers, and reflecting on the past filled him with deep emotions.

Not only Daji, but early summoned Gods and Demons hardly took on significant roles anymore; they fell behind because their strength couldn’t keep up.

Qin Jun hadn’t forgotten their past merits, so he ensured their benefits and salary were higher than those of other officers of the same rank.

"What is my Saint Empress pondering over?" Qin Jun approached Daji from behind, drawing her into his arms, and asked softly.

Daji snapped out of her reverie, reaching back to embrace Qin Jun’s neck, and murmured, "Nothing much."

"System, restore Daji to the peak of the Nine-Tailed Fox!"

Qin Jun commanded inwardly, then lifted Daji in his arms, indulgently smiling, "I know what you wish for, and I shall grant it!"

As soon as he spoke, a black hole appeared above his head and, to Daji’s astonished expression, it swallowed her whole.

Qin Jun sat down in front of the bed and murmured to himself, "I don’t pray for you to be very strong, just to reach the goal in your heart."

He then recalled the opportunity for a God and Demon summoning he had earned by completing the task that day.

Should he use it now?

After some thought, he decided to hold off on using it and wait until after entering the God Temple.

The invincible aspect of the system was that the summoned Gods and Demons wouldn’t stray too far from their host and could arrive within a day. Of course, cases like Zhu Bajie were rare.

This time going to the God Temple, Qin Jun not only wanted to retrieve the Torch Dragon but also to deter Zun Rudao and, if the moment was right, even to seize the position of temple lord!

Meanwhile, Divine Wuji had to die!

Only with his death could Qin Jun complete the task.

After all, the hatred between the two of them was irreconcilable. Killing him, Qin Jun felt no psychological pressure whatsoever.

...

The sun rose in the east after several days.

The first ray of morning sunlight shone through the window, landing on Qin Jun’s face, but he was still sleeping soundly, as peaceful as a baby.

"Ding! Daji has recovered to the God and Demon Apex and is about to return!"

Qin Jun was awakened by the system prompt, rolled out of bed, and rubbed his eyes.

He hadn’t expected that Daji would achieve the peak of God and Demon in just one night.

"Bring up Daji’s attribute list!" Qin Jun commanded in his mind.

He wondered how strong Daji had become.

If she could reach the Golden Immortal Realm, that would be decent; at least she could defend herself.

Soon, Daji’s attribute list appeared before his eyes:

"Daji, from mythology stories."

"Race: Nine-Tailed Fox!"

"Cultivation: Early Stage of Taiyi Xuan Immortal Realm!"

"Cultivation method: Heavenly Fox Clan, Bewitching Mind Technique."

"Innate Divine Power: True Form of the Nine-Tailed Fox!"

"Loyalty: 100 (max value 100)!"

Early Stage of Taiyi Xuan Immortal Realm!

Qin Jun’s eyes widened as if he had read it wrong.

"The Nine-Tailed Fox in ancient mythology is an existence akin to a Divine Beast. Even Dayu, one of the Five Emperors, once took a Nine-Tailed White Fox as a wife, but later it was demonized. It is said that the Nine-Tailed Fox comes from Qingqiu Mountain and is the most gifted among the fox clan. Arriving in this new world, she may well break through to Daluo in the future; everything depends on fate," the system explained, leaving Qin Jun overjoyed.

Leaping to the level of a Taiyi Xuan Immortal, even Qin Jun felt his head spinning.

Alas!

In just one night, his woman had surpassed him again!

"System, can I use the God and Demon Apex on myself?" Qin Jun couldn’t help but ask in his mind.

What a hustle!

His painstaking cultivation couldn’t compare with someone else getting a boost from the system.

The system replied irritably, "May I ask the host, what kind of god, immortal, or demon are you?"

"I am the Holy Emperor of Qin!"

"Heh heh!"

"..."

As Qin Jun bickered with the system, a black hole suddenly appeared in the room. Following that, Daji stepped out, and Qin Jun’s gaze involuntarily shifted toward her, his eyes going straight.

She was still dressed in the dignified white crystal long gown of the Saint Empress, her black hair cascading down her shoulders. As she touched down lightly, she tossed her head slightly, her hair floating gracefully, her skin pale and glowing like jade. When she turned and saw Qin Jun, her smile bloomed, in that instant, causing everything else to lose its luster, breathtakingly beautiful.

Seeing Qin Jun’s stunned expression, Daji chuckled and covered her mouth to laugh.

With a flicker, she was in front of Qin Jun, pressing her hand against his chest and pushing him to sit down on the bed.

"Your Majesty, thank you. Otherwise, how could your concubine have achieved the Taiyi Xuan Immortal Realm?"

Love filled Daji’s eyes, melting Qin Jun’s heart.

He replied subconsciously, "It’s nothing... You are my woman, it’s only natural!"

In a daze, he felt as though he had returned to the very first moment he saw Daji, when he was even more nervous and excited than now.

Daji pressed against Qin Jun’s chest, pushing him down on the bed, and spoke with a seductive laugh, "Your Majesty, your concubine has inherited some dual cultivation techniques. I’m not sure about their effectiveness; how about we...?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Jun could hardly contain himself. He immediately held her waist, wanting to flip over and press her down, but at that moment, Daji was no longer an entity he could budge.

"Let your concubine serve you, Your Majesty," Daji said with a smiling face. As she spoke, she slowly lowered her head.
