CH 29

Yan Hui felt that the ghost of the three-tailed fox demon seemed off.

She didn't dare to be careless, so she spent the entire afternoon looking for a seldom frequented willow grove. She set up a spell array in the grove.

Yan Hui sat in the middle of the spell array. She rubbed her hands together: "You stand watch at the border of the spell array. If you see the fox demon about to possess my body, then immediately kick away that rock by your side. Be fast. The fox demon's ghost seems like a malicious spirit now. If I get possessed by her, then we both will suffer."

"I'm not as slow as you." Tian Yao was clearly getting annoyed by Yan Hui's repeated warnings. "Cast your spell."

Yan Hui's mouth twitched, but she didn't continue arguing with him. She only closed her eyes and quickly recited a secret chant. Hardly any time had passed when a black aura started to materialize. It was like the fires of purgatory were scorching the earth.

Tian Yao couldn't see the black aura, but he could feel the temperature suddenly drop all around him.

Yan Hui was so scared by the black aura that she didn't want to continue the spell anymore. This vicious feeling.......she feared the fox demon was already an evil spirit.

Right when Yan Hui started to internally quake in fear and give up, the fox demon suddenly appeared.

The fox demon's translucent soul floated in mid-air. Her body was dimly lit with a red glow. Her hair was loose and disheveled; her face was deathly pale and haggard. However, the demon's eyes were lit with a vaguely murderous red light. Yan Hui couldn't help swallowing in fear at the sight.

In this world, the reincarnation cycle was freely entered. Those with a formidable enough will to remain as a ghost numbered less than one in one thousand. Out of those ghosts, the ones that become malicious spirits were less than one in ten thousand. In her life, Yan Hui had met many ghosts, young to old. Some wailed and grieved. Some enjoyed pranking the living. But she had never met a ghost that could strike fear in a heart without a single word before.

She glanced at Tian Yao. It was a hint for him to be prepared at any moment to kick away the stone holding together the spell array.

Tian Yao naturally didn't need her hint. From the moment the three-tailed fox demon appeared, his foot had been placed right next to the stone.

Although some would call Tian Yao a malicious spirit, he had never even seen a ghost before. When the three-tailed fox demon appeared, he simply only felt a bad feeling. The ghost's aura was extremely ill-omened.

The fox demon ignored Tian Yao and fixed her gaze on Yan Hui. She didn't say a single word nor move a single muscle.
