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

Hua Ran noticed it clearly too, and he tilted his head.

Joey looked back at the rocking chair; it was devoid of its spirit.

Only a tiny bit of resentment remained, proving that something had indeed been there.

Granny Wang gently tugged at Qiao Yi's sleeve.

"Miss Qiao, Miss Qiao?"

"Oh, Granny Wang, who exactly has been telling you that the Fox Spirit wants a woman to be his wife?"

"It's...it's the priest. The priest came to the village twenty years ago. Even before that, you could only enter the village but not leave."

She said that before that, things were very strange in the village. It rained heavily every day, the river rose, and several people drowned.

As a result, all the crops were destroyed. Just when everyone was at a loss, the middle-aged woman came in; she is now the priestess.

"The priest said she couldn't leave either, but she had a way to keep the villagers alive. The strange things happening in this village were because a fox spirit had taken over the mountain, and the fox spirit was angry and wanted to kill everyone here. The solution was to find a beautiful young woman of marriageable age every year and send her to the fox spirit as his wife, so that her yang energy would be drained. This would temporarily appease the fox spirit's anger."

Joey felt like she understood, but she didn't really understand.

"What did you do twenty years ago?"

"Ah...ah? We...we didn't do anything, and suddenly, it started pouring rain..."

Joey turned around and walked towards the leftmost of the three small rooms.

As soon as I stepped onto the floor, I felt a cool breeze rush through my body.

The bed is quite wide, there are two teacups on the table, and the wardrobe is also quite large; this doesn't seem like a place where one person lives alone.

Joey saw a scroll standing in the corner and reached out to take it, but Granny Wang suddenly came in and took the scroll away.

“This was a drawing my daughter made for fun before she died. Now that she’s gone, let’s burn this drawing along with her.”

Hua Ran leaned close to Qiao Yi's ear and said, "My lady, this scroll smells of blood."

"Your nose is quite sharp."

"It's a fox, you know~"

Qiao Yichong reached out to Wang Po, "Give it to me."

“This… Miss Qiao, this is really just something a little girl drew for fun.”

Just as Qiao Yi was about to make a move, Hua Ran's large, brownish-red tail suddenly grew longer and hooked the scroll over.

"My lady, here you go."

When Granny Wang saw the fox spirit make a move, she dared not move either.

At such close range, Joey could smell the blood.

After the scroll was unfurled, Qiao Yi didn't react much, but Hua Ran was taken aback.

Fear settled on a handsome young face.

"There's blood..."

"There's blood?"

Seeing that it was broad daylight, and that it was not easy for someone of pure yang nature to see clearly, Qiao Yi asked Granny Wang to leave.

She closed the doors and windows tightly, and Joey even lowered the curtain from inside the room.

Suddenly, the room became even cooler, as if the setting sun were casting its last rays at dusk.

Hua Ran looked at the painting again and took a step back.

He lowered his head in fear.

"Very scary?"

"Um……"

"Why can't I see it?"

The system chuckled, "Because half an hour has passed, the Yin-Yang Eyes have lost their effect, and you need to kiss his little mouth again."

Shit!

Qiao Yi turned around and met Hua Ran's alluring face. She felt a strange feeling in her heart.

But since she's already here, what's the point of not seeing her?

So Qiao Yi pinned Hua Ran against the wall.

Hua Ran was startled at first, then relaxed her body.

"My lady, do you need Yin energy? Then, then bring it here."

"Could you please not be so...natural?"

They gave the impression of having known each other for a long time, like an old married couple.

Hua Ran lightly stroked Qiao Yi's cheek with her finger, and Qiao Yi felt as if she had been electrocuted.

"I'm already the mistress's woman, so doesn't that mean she can do whatever she wants?"

Joey felt a sense of powerlessness, as if enveloped in honey.

She told Hua Ran to close her eyes.

Tell yourself, he's a vixen, that's why he's acting this way, it's just instinct...

Hua Ran obediently closed his eyes, but when Qiao Yi kissed him with her eyes closed, he quietly opened them again.

So beautiful~

The wife's face was absolutely among the most beautiful of all women.

His tail also quietly grew longer, swaying back and forth behind Joey.

As Joey finished kissing him and was about to get up, Hua Ran suddenly stepped forward, hooked her tail around Joey's neck, and kissed him deeply.

"Well!"

Joey immediately became fully alert.

She was about to slap Hua Ran, and Hua Ran let go of her at that moment.

"My wife... your yang energy is so strong, I feel my skin and fur have become shinier."

"you!"

The system called out to Qiao Yi in the consciousness space, "Baby, baby! If you kiss him, your Yin-Yang Eyes will have accumulated for two hours. If he kisses you, your Yin-Yang Eyes will have accumulated for four hours!"

Hey, Joey can't get angry yet.

The big fox licked the corner of its mouth with its pink little tongue, looking shy and smug as if its wicked scheme had succeeded.

But the next moment, when he looked at the painting, he immediately hid behind Joey.

It was only then that Joey saw what the painting looked like.

A man and a woman, one sitting and one standing, represent the most ordinary and harmonious picture of a married couple.

However, dark red drops fell from the woman's sleeve.

Look up along their bodies.

The woman's head was tilted to the side, with a large gash between her skull and neck. In the portrait, her expression was ferocious, her eyes staring in terror at the top of her head, and blood was flowing from her mouth and neck.

Look at her diagonally above.

The man's eyes were filled with bloody tears as he glared angrily at the woman.

He was also choking the woman with both hands.

Joey swallowed.

No wonder Hua Ran was afraid.

Hua Ran stood beside Qiao Yi with her head down and said, "It wasn't like this just now. There was just a little blood in my veins, and it suddenly turned into this. Oh, my wife!"

Hua Ran pointed to the painting again, and Qiao Yi turned around to look. She found that the two people in the painting were facing her, their eyes were bloodshot and their eyes were fierce. There was also more blood in the painting.

His hands also moved towards her, reaching out to grab her.

It even seemed to extend its reach.

Qiao Yi spat, "How dare you act so recklessly in broad daylight? Heaven and Earth gather Yang, annihilate!"

A burst of yang energy shot out from Qiao Yi's fingertips, striking the painting and burning a hole in the paper.

"what!"

A distant scream reached Joey's ears, and Joey frowned even more.

"We couldn't destroy them, those two got away! Strange, they're not even that powerful spirits, what's there to destroy?"

Besides, men have grievances, while women only have resentment. Even if the men can't be eliminated, the women should be eliminated.

"System, where did they escape to?"

The red dot marking this location is still visible on the map.

The system is strange too.

“That woman must be Wang Po’s deceased daughter. It’s not surprising that she harbored resentment after death, but where is her soul hiding? And what’s the point of her being alive after being killed in this state? She should have returned to heaven.”

Joey understood what the system meant: every world has its own cycle.

The soul returns to heaven and transforms into countless fragments; rebirth and reassembly are the natural order.

Just then, Wang Po outside asked, "Miss Qiao, are you ready yet? What did you notice?"

Joey opened the doors and windows and said, "Did your daughter kill her own husband?"
