Chapter 563 - 461: Matters of Celestial Wolf City, The Squirrel Maiden’s Fantasy

One-tailed learned a great deal about Celestial Wolf City from the Squirrel Demon. She then kept the Squirrel Demon by her side, having her constantly recount information about the city, while the other miners continued their mining work as instructed.

After all, Spirit Stones were a very important resource. Once she entered Celestial Wolf City, she would undoubtedly need a lot of them to trade for things she had never heard of before, like the clothes the Squirrel Demon was wearing.

Although the Squirrel Demon’s clothes looked tattered, their original quality must have been quite good—especially since they offered far better coverage than the outfit of woven vines One-tailed wore.

Therefore, One-tailed was very eager to buy a set of clothes. Of course, it would be even better if she could get a set for her master and her main body, too. She knew her master had always wanted a proper outfit to cover everyone’s bodies.

’Yes, Master must feel this way. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have gone to the trouble of weaving so many vine outfits for everyone after they gained their Transformation bodies. Aren’t we all wearing one right now just for cover?’

So, One-tailed needed to go to Celestial Wolf City to get clothes for everyone. The immediate priority was to first excavate all the Spirit Stones so they would have sufficient funds.

And surprisingly, the Squirrel Demon knew quite a lot. She could clearly describe most of the shops within Celestial Wolf City, and she also knew the locations of the Workshop Markets and the manors belonging to the Great Demon Races.

’Yes, how could an ordinary member of the Demon Race have such knowledge?’

The Squirrel Demon had actually once been an existence above the Spirit Control Realm, but she was crippled after offending the Celestial Wolf Race. Even now, with her Realm at the Spirit Control level, she was still beyond what most members of the Demon Race could compare to.

In fact, she had once been on the same level as the former Nine-tailed Fox, one of the Eight Great Dominators. But because of a minor incident, she offended the immensely powerful Celestial Wolf Race and was beaten down. Now, with her Realm having plummeted, she was stuck mining in this quarry.

So, her original status was by no means low. In fact, among those without a Great Demon Race bloodline, she was considered one of the strongest, belonging to the most powerful group of Independent Cultivators. Nevertheless, she was utterly beneath their notice.

In the eyes of a Great Demon Race like the Celestial Wolf Race, she was no different from a wildflower or a weed on the roadside—easily crushed underfoot and posing no threat at all.

And so, after provoking the Celestial Wolf Race, the Squirrel Demon was quickly crippled. She was sent here to mine and had already been digging for several months.

She had been on the verge of growing numb. It was utterly hopeless. ’Who would want to mine in this godforsaken place, getting whipped by those powerful members of the Celestial Wolf Race at a moment’s notice?’

Truthfully, among the Celestial Wolf Race members guarding the quarry, not many had a Realm stronger than hers. In fact, there was only one who had reached a Realm above the Spirit Control level—the very one Jiang Qiu had killed at the beginning. Aside from him, there were no others.

So, the Squirrel Demon’s Realm was actually quite high. However, the Celestial Wolf Race was a Great Demon Race, after all, and the Secret Techniques they commanded were beyond anything an Independent Cultivator like her could compare to.

Yes, according to the system set up by the Celestial Wolf Race, she had only been allowed to enter Celestial Wolf City after reaching a relatively high Realm, completing several missions, and collecting some Treasures of Heaven and Earth. But life there was not easy; she faced deep-seated discrimination and her status was incredibly low.

In that environment, forget about reaching a higher Realm; even her combat ability was inferior to that of "wild" demons of the same level who had grown up in the outside world, such as the Eight Great Dominators.

In Celestial Wolf City, the Squirrel Demon had neither enough resources to trade for those Secret Techniques nor a powerful background, so of course she had no way to advance her Cultivation. Consequently, her strength grew weaker and weaker. Now, after being ground down by months of mining, she was even more powerless.

Fortunately, her former Realm had been quite high. Although she couldn’t compare to the Great Demon Races, she was among the very best of the Independent Cultivators. That was why she had seen so many things and could now relate so much to One-tailed.

After hearing the Squirrel Demon recount her experiences in Celestial Wolf City, One-tailed’s interest was piqued. ’I never imagined that Celestial Wolf City could not only gather so many members of the Demon Race but also sort them into a rigid hierarchy!’

Furthermore, the Celestial Wolf Race was the largest clan in Celestial Wolf City, its main lineage. Otherwise, the city wouldn’t be named Celestial Wolf City. Their power was immense. For example, the legendary Super True Dominator, who was said to have taught the path to countless members of the Demon Race, was the Celestial Wolf Ancestor!

He was also the First City Lord of Celestial Wolf City!

That’s right. Celestial Wolf City was built by that Super True Dominator, and the Celestial Wolf Race was born from his descendants. Now, the Celestial Wolf Race is the only bloodline qualified to be the City Lord in Celestial Wolf City, making their power immense!

And yet, a group from this great clan had been slaughtered by Jiang Qiu’s people upon their arrival. If nothing unexpected happened, a contingent from the Celestial Wolf Race would soon come to this place on a punitive expedition!

Yes, the Squirrel Demon had already guessed it. The Celestial Wolf Race would soon learn that this place had been occupied. When that happened, many powerful members of the Demon Race would surely come here, and it was even possible that the various other demon races would dispatch their own experts as well!
