My Evil Wife Is a Nine-Tailed Fox

Not a deity, she said, but did Zhao Yichen have any other choice at the moment? The possibility of entering a contract with a demon crossed his mind but what else could he do to save himself in this situation?

\'I agree.\' Zhao Yichen replied mentally. \'So please, save me.\'

Since it had already turned out this way, he could only accept the consequences of his action by making a deal with the devil.

A sinister laughter was followed, as if she was deeply pleased with his answer.

"Then bleed more for me, my sweet human and I shall grant you your wish."

F*ck. What did she mean he had to bleed more? Couldn\'t she see that he was already dying from blood loss? She was really a devil, wasn\'t she?

As his blood seeped into the ground below him, the ancient seal, where he happened to lie on started to crack. An earthquake followed, startling the four men who kidnapped Zhao Yichen. They struggled to keep standing and held onto the boulders for support.

"What\'s going on?! Why\'s the ground shaking?"

This wasn\'t the first time they were here. In fact, they were already accustomed to the mountainous terrain as people rarely came to this place. Many travelers were lost here, unable to return home. That was why it was normal to see dead bodies and skeletons in this area.

What better place to hide Zhao Yichen\'s remains? This place was perfect.

A gust of wind followed, with the blurry fog, they could hardly see a fox spirit emerging from the ground where Zhao Yichen\'s limp body lies. Zhao Yichen struggled to open his eyes but with his remaining energy finally depleted, he allowed himself to succumb into the darkness.

So in the end, he would die? He shouldn\'t have put his faith in a demon. How naive he was to fall under such a trick again? Shouldn\'t he have learned his lesson the first time he was betrayed, leading him into this situation?

As if weeping for his impending death, the dark sky allowed the heavy rain to pour down, drenching everyone and everything in its wake.

On the other side of the Qingqiu mountain, the fox spirit possessed the dead body of an eighteen year old woman who was pushed to death by her cousins. Her eyes suddenly opened and the fox spirit found herself lying on some rock below the cliff.

How many centuries had it been since she was sealed by those hateful members of the Li family? The fox spirit wasn\'t sure, but she didn\'t want to think of the past at this moment.

Her legs were fractured, even her right arm was broken. Using the faint magic the fox spirit had left, she healed the wounds and injuries of her host. This body will do for now. So long as this body wouldn\'t reject her, there shouldn\'t be any problem with her mingling with humans.

She slowly stood up and looked at the clothes she was wearing as she tried to delve into the memories of the poor girl who had recently lost her life. Suddenly, foreign memories that didn\'t belong to her flooded her mind. The fox spirit then realized that the world this woman lived in was far from the life she had in the past.

The dead woman\'s name was Shen Minyao. As the rain soaked her entire body wet, a sinister smile crossed on the lips of the gentle girl who was considered by everyone as trash.

Ah, this girl was so stupid. How can she allow other people to bully her, leading to her death? The fox spirit thought. Since she had now possessed Shen Minyao\'s body, she would make sure to get even with all the people who hurt and bullied the girl in the past.

Thankfully, Shen Minyao\'s body was untouched and because she had just breathed her last breath before the fox spirit possessed her body, it was easier for the fox to ingrain herself into this human body. The fox had a snippet of how to live in this modern world and was curious to see it with her own eyes.

\'Interesting,\' she chuckled inwardly. \'It seems like this old lady needs to learn more about this world.\'

However, before anything else, she should return to that place to save the human who made the contract with her. She might not be a benevolent spirit like the other mountain guardians, but since the man released her from the seal, she owed him her freedom.

"Ah, I probably should head back to my new Contractor." She mumbled to herself, a little surprised that Shen Minyao had a nice voice.

"Well then. Let\'s see if this body could keep up with my pace." Shen Minyao flexed her right hand until long nails were unsheathed. A foxy smile crossed her lips and she leaped from one branch to another, making her way back to the place where her fox spirit was sealed.

When she returned, she saw the same four men hovering over Zhao Yichen\'s half dead body, trying to see if he was truly dead this time.

"He\'s dead right? Boss won\'t be pleased if we don\'t make sure he\'s dead."

"Well, we can just put another bullet through his head to make sure." The other one laughed, kicking the side of Zhao Yichen\'s body but the latter didn\'t respond. His eyes were blank, slowly slipping to his death.

"Now, now. I can\'t allow you to do that to my Contractor." The fox spirit in Shen Minyao\'s body said, revealing her presence to the four men.

The four men were confused to see a young woman here and couldn\'t understand what she was saying. Was she one of those who lost their minds and went crazy because they couldn\'t find the way out of Mountain Qingqiu?
