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

Joey didn't stop for a moment; she wanted to complete the mission quickly and get the Demon Mirror.

Because of this, Hua Ran, the fox demon, knew everything about his cultivation level.

One can also judge many things from one's level of cultivation.

For example, guessing the real reason why Hanazono loves her.

Otherwise, Joey would feel awkward. She knew he loved her, but she didn't know why, and it was just...

At this moment, the system said, "Joey, why do you insist on figuring out why he loves you? Love is a very subtle thing; you can't grasp it or see it, yet it manifests in every aspect of life. Why don't you just enjoy this love?"

"I……"

The system continued, "And you love him very much. You're just one step away from confessing your feelings to him, and then you'll be together. I'll temporarily act as the civil affairs bureau here and process your marriage certificate."

Qiao Yi pouted, "If you love him, you can't love him in a vain way. Also, don't you find it strange? I give him plenty of yang energy, and we kiss and hug each other a lot, but he insists on sleeping with me. Actually, we're already in this relationship, and he's a vixen, so there's nothing wrong with sleeping together, but... his eagerness is unnatural."

Joey said it seemed like there was a purpose behind it.

Hua Ran is definitely hiding something from her.

When two people love each other, it's best to be honest with each other.

"Tsk tsk tsk, you've gotten so thin now."

The system chuckled and said that only couples in love are worth watching.

"Then I look forward to your confession~ And I have to give something in return. The day you confess will be the day my social anxiety system comes out of the screen, how about that?"

"Tch, it's not like I haven't seen what you look like before."

After that, Joey rested for a day, and then in the evening, she was to explore Wuming Mountain from the bottom of the river.

Hua Ran naturally followed.

He also said to Inugami and Joe.

"You two will stay here and protect Father. This is a tough task, and it will be the best time to show your strength. As for the river, my wife and I will go. I know you don't want to get your fur wet, right?"

Hua Ran patted her chest.

"I will sacrifice myself!"

Inugami remained unmoved.

He doesn't even want to talk to Qiao Yi, so why would he want to talk to Hua Ran?

Qiao Dawang sabotaged the operation.

"The dog paddle of Inugami is the most suitable."

Hua Ran snorted, "I can doggy paddle too!"

Joey, trying not to laugh, said, "Alright, I'll take you there."

Even after Qiao Yi had half her body in the river, Hua Ran was still disgusted and tilted her head to lick her paw.

“My lady…the water is dirty.”

Joey sighed, "Why don't you just stay here and wait for me?"

"Hmm...no, how about you give me a big kiss, then I'll muster up the courage..."

Before Hua Ran could finish speaking, Qiao Yi plunged into the water.

Hua Ran was so angry that she slapped the water.

"Why didn't you let me finish what I was saying! I just want a kiss! Oh, you brat, you can't disappear from my sight, what if something happens?"

As Hua Ran spoke, she quickly jumped down as well.

Sure enough, there was a large whirlpool at the bottom of the water.

Moreover, this is the center of the large red dot shown on the system map.

Joey first put her hand into the first layer of the vortex, where there were opposing yang energies.

That belonged to another person; it was a very strong yang energy.

Then Joey pinched her finger until it bled, and a few beads of blood came out and were rubbed into the vortex.

The next moment, Qiao Yi turned to look at Hua Ran and hugged him directly in the water.

With a hissing sound bursting from their mouths and noses, the vortex began to disintegrate from the inside, and a huge gust of air rushed towards Qiao Yi and Hua Ran.

Hua Ran choked on the water quickly, but luckily Qiao Yi leaned over and kissed his little mouth.

"Well……"

intimate.

Hua Ran hoped that she wasn't choking on water right now, but rather that she would be knocked unconscious.

Would the wife kiss him more and breathe on him a little longer?

But soon, the scenery before their eyes changed.

When the two of them came to their senses, there was no water around them, and they were standing on the mountain.

Looking down the mountain, there is a small river with a small bridge over it.

"That's right! This is the river from your dream, Hua Ran. Look."

Hua Ran didn't look at the river, but pointed to the other side and said, "My lady... the fox statue is exactly the same as the one in Shiqiao Village."

Joey quickly turned around.

Sure enough, we saw a fox statue standing beside the mountain.

She increasingly felt that many things were actually a closed loop.

Can the unsolved mysteries of Shiqiao Village be found here?

What is the relationship between the fox statue and the flower dye?

Just as she was thinking this, Hua Ran exclaimed in surprise again.

“My lady, look! That male vengeful ghost has come out of the river.”

A man was walking slowly in the river where there was a bridge in the middle.

He was not wearing any talismans at the moment, and was still wearing a Taoist robe, with a smile on his face.

Then a woman came out of the mountain cabin.

Qiao Yi quickly pulled Hua Ran to hide around the corner.

The system then unfolded the map for this location.

“Baozi, it’s true that you can only see the interior and locate it after you come in. There are two strange phenomena here. The two phenomena are very close to each other and overlap to form a large red dot on the outside. The first phenomenon is this male vengeful ghost, and the second phenomenon is the fox statue.”

Qiao Yi understood.

At this moment, Hua Ran felt a pain in her chest.

He knew things were going badly.

As expected, his body couldn't withstand the prolonged abstinence from his wife.

But why at this particular time...?

At this moment, not only would it be easy for the wife to discover him, but it would also hold her back!

Hua Ran put one hand behind her back, clenched her fist, and used her tail to tighten around her wrist, instantly leaving red marks on her wrist.

Joey focused all her attention on the male vengeful ghost and the woman who had emerged.

The woman was also dressed in a Taoist robe, exuding an air of otherworldly elegance.

Moreover, he was a person who had attained great enlightenment.

Her hair was neatly styled into a bun, adorned with a green hairpin.

She held the man's hand, chatted with him with great concern, and even sat down at the table with him, serving him food and pouring him drinks.

She even straightened the man's clothes, wiped the rice grains from the corners of his mouth, and put them into her own mouth.

They are clearly a couple who practice Taoism together.

A peaceful atmosphere.

“Strange… Something is definitely amiss. Since there are unusual phenomena here, there must be something wrong.”

Suddenly, the woman pulled a dagger from her sleeve and, without saying a word, plunged it into the man's chest.

Fresh blood gushed out, startling Joey.

kill?

No, the man is already a vengeful ghost, so there's no point in killing him.

What are they doing?

put on a show?

However, Hua Ran had no time to care about anything else. He was in increasing pain and couldn't breathe. His vision was blurry.

Even though his tail left bloody marks on his wrists, it couldn't keep him normal anymore.

"Hua Ran, let's stay here and observe for a while before making our move."

"My wife..."

Hua Ran made only a faint sound, then swayed and fell into Qiao Yi's arms.

"Flower dyeing!"

"pain……"

However, the woman with an ethereal and otherworldly air was already standing in front of Qiao Yi.
