My lady, don't be angry. I'm letting you touch my big tail.

Hua Ran covered her mouth with one hand, and for some reason, a sense of familiarity and sweetness welled up inside her.

It was as if he had witnessed this scene before.

This made him repeatedly exclaim that his wife was really cool.

I found the treasure.

This body wasn't given to her for nothing.

The villagers outside saw the fire on the ground and fled into their homes.

They all tried to shift the blame onto each other.

"What did I tell you? Joey came out of the coffin this time to get revenge on us. We should have someone pretend to be friendly, and then, like before, stab her in the back and kill her and put her back in the coffin."

The other one was not happy.

"Who did this? Could an ordinary person have started this fire? The priest has never made a mistake in all these years! It's obvious that Joey is involved; she might have absorbed some kind of magical energy from the fox spirit and is now taking revenge on the entire village!"

The white-robed priest also rushed over at this time.

"Yes, that brat Joey is going to destroy the whole village! So many people have already been sacrificed to the fox spirit, but she's so selfish. Instead of appeasing the fox spirit's resentment, she's using its power to destroy our village. I have a way!"

But actually, they only needed to touch these fires to know that they wouldn't burn a living person.

You can only burn things that symbolize resentment and malice.

The dog god was in the shadows, and reached out to touch the flame.

very warm.

"Like my sister's yang energy back then, no... even warmer than my sister's."

His almond-shaped eyes were glistening with tears.

But soon, he turned around and saw a ghost hiding in the shadows.

The dog god first roared angrily.

"Don't come out! You've been possessing this strange phenomenon for so many years, your body is already tainted with yin energy. If you come out, you'll be burned to ashes!"

But soon, he paused.

He realized that his previous remarks were inappropriate, which seemed to indicate concern.

So he took a step back, his face filled with a cold, murderous intent.

"What are you doing here? You've become a disgrace to the village by degenerating yourself, and you even poisoned me. Once this village returns to normal, you can reincarnate, probably as an animal."

The Taoist nun looked the dog god up and down and said softly, "Your body is under the dilapidated house to the north. I have been covering it with a slight amount of yang energy. Your soul should return to its place soon."

"What on earth are you up to?"

The Taoist nun continued to smile gently.

"Whether I've done anything wrong or not, you'll know once you go and see for yourself."

After saying this, the Taoist nun disappeared.

Inugami stood there stunned for a long time.

Beneath the fox's underground palace, the tremors grew stronger with each passing moment.

Joey remained seated before the Foundation Sword, calm and composed.

"That monster has been turning over quite frequently; it should be coming out soon. In this moment, I'd like to ask you a question."

Hua Ran blinked her foxy, alluring eyes and looked at Qiao Yi with a puzzled expression.

"My lady, what do you want to ask?"

"who are you?"

Hua Ran chuckled and said she thought it was some kind of problem.

"I am Hua Ran, your little fox, my wife~"

He reached out and gently stroked Joey's cheek.

"I'm a little fox who, on our first meeting, was pinned down and forced upon by you~"

As she said this, Hua Ran lowered her head shyly.

It also wrapped its large, brownish-red tail around one of Joey's arms.

Joey suddenly moved closer to Hua Ran.

Hua Ran was startled, "Wife?"

In an instant, their surroundings changed.

A black space, a fiery red, gold-plated scale.

Hua Ran sat on one side, and Qiao Yi sat on the other side.

Below is an abyss with no bottom to be seen.

"My lady! My lady... what's wrong? Why aren't we sitting there like before?"

Joey exhaled and said, "I'm going to put you on trial."

She stated that this would only take up a fleeting moment of real-world time.

After the trial, she will voluntarily erase Hua Ran's memory of being tried here.

Going out won't change anything.

Hua Ran frowned.

"Trial? My wife, what did I do wrong? You used this thing to judge Granny Wang and the others... Isn't it only bad guys who need to be judged!"

Joey silenced Hua Ran.

The system's youthful voice appeared above.

With a joyful tone.

“Baozi, you should have done this a long time ago. If you’re unsure, we can just have a trial.”

Joey nodded.

But I was still on edge.

How could she not know that a trial would be better?

She was simply afraid of the outcome of the trial.

Fearing the judgment would reveal that Hua Ran was all a sham.

"Baby, shall we begin?"

"let's start."

Hua Ran was in a hurry. He had no idea what was happening. He wanted to get off the tray and go to Qiao Yi's side.

But there seemed to be a transparent cover over the tray, preventing the flowers from getting wet.

He kept banging on the cover.

"My lady...my lady! I don't want to leave you, what did I do wrong!"

In an instant, everything around Hua Ran turned black, and she could no longer see where Qiao Yi was.

All that could be heard was a young man's voice from above.

"Prioritize the trial of Hanazono's past."

However, the balance scale did not display a scrolling image like before.

The system made a "Huh" sound.

"No past? Strange... But don't worry, the scales can still judge the truth."

"The judgment of Hua Ran's love for Qiao Yi is deemed to be over 85%, which is considered true love. Now, the judgment begins."

Joey sat on another tray, feeling very uneasy.

She never used this system's ability to judge her siblings during her lifetime.

Because she always felt that there would be no problem with family ties, since they were relatives she had grown up with since childhood.

But the result was... a terrible price to pay.

Joey also felt that she might have really fallen into Hua Ran's gentle embrace.

Get it checked and stop the loss in time.

"Trial over! Wow~ Baozi, do you want to know his stats?"

Joey pouted, "No, don't tell me."

Joey waited and waited, but the system remained silent.

Joey immediately said, "Okay, I know, he really is a liar!"

"No, no, no, he's not a fraudster, it's just that I... have never seen such a high number before, I'm analyzing it."

"How high can it be? Can it exceed 100%? In my world, anything over 95% is pure, unadulterated true love."

The system coughed.

"His test result was... 120 percent."

"Pfft, it's overflowing? This stuff can overflow?"

"Hmm... This is the first time I've seen this either. The internal explanation is... that your bond is very deep, which is why it overflowed. I don't know if this is a system bug, but he definitely loves you, and it's the truest and most sincere love."

Hua Ran's crying could be heard.

It's so miserable.

"My lady! Why have you locked me up here?"

"My wife! Where are you...?"

"My lady, my lady! I will do anything for you, why do you never believe me? Can't your heart tell whether I truly love you or not!"

When Joey heard the crying again, her heart softened instantly.

He quickly said, "Master, make him forget the memory of the trial. I'll go out now."
