The World of the Human Race Prospering

The carriage headed for the imperial examination drove straight into the main city of Xia Yu.

After entering the city, what Su Yan saw was a broad road that led straight to the Imperial City. 

It was about one mile wide and bustling, with people hawking along the street. At a glance, he could not even see the outline of the Imperial City of Xia Yu.

Although Su Yan had never been to the Xia Yu Kingdom, he was a hitchhiker in the team rushing to the capital for the exam. 

He spent his free time eavesdropping on the gossip of the examinees, so he had a basic understanding of the Xia Yu Kingdom.

The Xia Yu Kingdom was the only non-sect power among the five continents. 

Rumor had it that the current emperor had the power of an immortal.

The Xia Yu Kingdom was the only territory in the primitive continent that could accommodate hundreds of races. 

Human cultivators and beasts lived together here. 

Righteous and devil cultivators passionately had a crush on each other. 

A female devil cultivator was even holding a half-beast baby in her arms.

Su Yan lived in the Southern Province, an area ruled by the Devil Tao Sect. 

There were various Devil Tao cultivators there. The Beast Race's territory was mainly in the Eastern Province. 

Su Yan had only heard about it from his mother, but he had never been there.

Because the bell his mother gave him was still there, Su Yan was certain that he had never been to the Eastern Province.

Anyone who had been there would hang their bells in front of the door to warn their clansmen that they would regret not taking any precautions during sex.

....

The carriage entered the main city of Xia Yu. The carriage driver drove to the stop designated by the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs and arranged for the examinees to stay in the inn.

Every five years, the Xia Yu Kingdom would regularly release an enrolment plan, allowing those willing to be officials to come to the main city to take the examination. The officials here were either civil or military.

It was said that the exam was not difficult, but it was not like the ancient times in Su Yan's previous life, where one could become an upstart. 

Now, one had to start from the bottom and rise to the top by contributing.

The officials of Xia Yu were all cultivators. For powerful cultivators, it was very difficult to survive for thousands of years until the officials of the imperial court abdicated. 

It was possible that the emperor and prime minister would still be the same after reincarnating dozens of times.

Therefore, in Xia Yu Kingdom, only meritorious service and reporting were the fastest ways to get promoted.

This was Su Yan's general understanding of Xia Yu.

"Let me see."

After checking into the inn, Su Yan jumped up from the bed when Yu Yanning went out to register the students' information. 

His small snow-white fox body expanded and contracted in the air, and when he landed, he turned into a young man with a delicate face and a seductive gaze.

After Su Yan landed on the ground, he flicked his white robe sleeve, revealing his slender and fair right palm. 

On his index finger was a silver ring, inlaid with a brilliant blue gem with flowing runes.

His mother had given him a very expensive storage ring. There was some food and money in it that could be used for Su Yan's escape expenses.

Su Yan did not care about the Spiritual Stones. Instead, he took out a jade pendant from his storage ring.

Mother Su repeatedly reminded Su Yan to activate the jade pendant after he arrived at the main city of the Xia Yu Kingdom. 

This way, he could contact Mother Su's cultivation partner to keep Su Yan safe in the Xia Yu Kingdom.

Otherwise, a cute little white fox could not survive in the Xia Yu Kingdom, where foxes were everywhere.

Those girls who liked cute things could easily destroy Su Yan.

Clang!

As Su Yan injected his beast's power into the jade pendant, it flickered as if it was connected to a power source. 

Finally, as the message was sent out, the jade pendant cracked into pieces of stone in Su Yan's hand.

Oops.

Su Yan did not know what it was, but when he saw the jade pendant in his hand crack, Su Yan was about to crack as well.

The jade pendant that Su Yan's mother had repeatedly urged him to activate cracked open after it was activated. How could Su Yan remain calm?

A moment later, the window sill made a strange sound as the wooden window was pushed open.

Whoosh!

While Su Yan was staring at the jade pendant, a guest appeared outside the window on the second floor. 

She looked about fifteen years old and wore a light pink low-cut dress with many white ornaments. She appeared on Su Yan's windowsill and whistled at Su Yan.

"Babe, what can I do for you?"

The girl shook the broken jade pendant and explained to Su Yan," This is a Southern Devil Tao Tool called the Soul Seeking Secret Jade. The two jade pendants contain a wisp of my and your mother's spiritual consciousness. Once activated, as long as you're within the range of the Secret Jade, it can transmit information anywhere and anytime, even through formations."

"I came as soon as I received your message. Is this how you treat your auntie?"

The girl did not care about etiquette at all. She placed one hand on the windowsill and flipped into the room. 

She looked at Su Yan, smiled, stretched out her hand, and gestured, "The last time I saw you, you were still a fox egg. Now, you've already become a little fox. How time flies."

"Life is truly wonderful. Chong Qiong, your mother's Tao companion, originated from the Mutated Beast Pride Insect Clan."

After the girl sighed about the miraculous time, she briefly introduced her name and clan to Su Yan.

In the world of beasts, there were three main types of beasts: divine beasts, mutated beasts, and monster beasts.

Divine beasts were born with a noble nature and incredible divine power.

Mutated beasts were slightly inferior, but they also had divine power.

Monster beasts were the most common. Ordinary animals would become beasts when they achieved success in their cultivation.

Bloodline did not represent cultivation strength, but it represented the starting point of a beast. 

The nobler the bloodline, the less effort needed to take in cultivation. 

Divine and mutated beasts were born with intelligence and powerful magical powers, while ordinary beasts needed hundreds of years of hard work to obtain them.

"Su Qing is generous. She abandoned her hundred years of cultivation to build your physical body."

Chong Qiong looked at Su Yan in amazement. She stretched out her hand and poked, touched, and pinched his body. 

By touching his body, she confirmed that Su Yan's current cultivation level was roughly equivalent to a human's Qi Refining Cultivation Level.

He was still a short distance away from the Foundation Establishment Stage. Then, she exclaimed again.

This was because it was unreasonable. To beasts, childbirth meant the arrival of a weak period. 

During the pregnancy, many female beasts' spiritual energy would be consumed.

In exchange, the fetus could cultivate the moment it was born. It could also care for itself even if its mother was not around.

With the nine-tailed fox bloodline, Su Yan should have possessed the power of an Aurous Core Level cultivator when he was born. 

However, his current cultivation was only at the Qi Refining Level. This was beyond reasonable and common sense.

There was an explanation for this!

Judging from Su Yan's flawless human form, Chong Qiong could guess where the spiritual energy had gone when Mother Su was pregnant.

The nine-tailed fox was born noble, but it was only a fox. It could not transform into a human at birth.

Nowadays, the human race is prosperous and favored. So, the human race would continue to thrive. 

As long as a living creature had a human form, it could also be favored.

Mother Su must have given all her spiritual energy to Su Yan when she delivered him. So Su Yan could transform to human form. 

This way, the beast race, which had a slow cultivation speed, could also receive the blessing and cultivate quickly.

If a beast wanted to transform into a human, it needed to be at the Newborn Baby level.

The human race's fast cultivation speed was exchanged for a short life. The beast race was born to be long-lived, and it was understandable that they had a strong physique body and a slow cultivation speed.

Ordinary female beasts would give birth to a fetus with a half-human form and some cultivation power. 

It was very rare for the fetus to completely take a human's form.

This meant the mother beast needed to care for the cubs until they could protect themselves.

Judging from Su Yan's current situation, Mother Su planned to take care of him until he reached adulthood.

Unexpected, nine-tailed fox seniors wanted to castrate him.

For Su Yan's physical and mental health, Mother Su had no choice but to send Su Yan to her good friend - Chong Qiong.

She could probably take good care of Su Yan, right?

It should be possible, right?

A Chong, please don't disappoint me.
