My Evil Wife Is a Nine-Tailed Fox

When Shen Minyao came back to the place where she had left her new contractor, the rain had finally stopped. His body laid on the cold, wet ground with his eyes opened. The young woman knelt beside him and gently pushed his body, making him lay on his back.

Shen Minyao wiped her mouth with the back of her hand. This man was on the brink of death and if she wasn't desperate to free herself, she wouldn't have to make a deal with him.

While his blood was able to break the seal that was placed on her centuries ago, her spirit was contained in a round stone. She wouldn't be able to break free and get her freedom unless she made a contract with a human.

'Oh, how troublesome.' The fox spirit thought.

If she doesn't fulfill her part of their deal, she would be cursed by the heavens for a thousand years. That wasn't something the fox spirit wanted to happen. Their existence and long life was envied by some, but for the fox spirit, it was a curse that burdened her.

Anyway, since she had already made a deal with him, there's no time to waste anymore. His injuries were more severe than Shen Minyao's body and the life essence she'd gotten from the livers of the four men weren't enough to sustain them.

This man was as good as dead. However, as Shen Minyao hovered over him, pressing her lips to his, a red fox orb that contained the spirit energy she had obtained over her long years of living came out of her and directly entered him.

Once she parted her lips from him, she watched as his whole body was slowly engulfed by a golden light, slowly healing the wounds on his body until there wasn't a trace of injury on it.

Meanwhile, Zhao Yichen had slowly regained his consciousness. The coldness of the night was slowly replaced by a warmth that spread throughout his body. Had he died?

After being tortured over a week, was this warm and relaxing feeling his final solace on earth?

As he opened his eyes, he found an unknown woman kneeling next to him. Who was she? He wondered. She couldn't possibly be a local here, given her style of clothes. Zhao Yichen also didn't think that meeting her was just a coincidence.

"It's good that you are finally awake, Contractor." The woman said before standing up, checking her soaking wet clothes. "Might as well find a change of clothes before this body gets sick." She told herself.

Zhao Yichen pulled himself up and sat straight. He looked curiously at the woman in front of him, wondering if this was the same demon who offered to form a contract with him before he passed out. There was something about her that he couldn't point out.

The young woman was dressed casually in a pair of jeans and a hoodie with a white shirt underneath. She was also looking curiously at the pair of white sneakers she was donning, as if it was her first time to see such footwear in her life.

"Who are you?" He asked. "What are you?"

Shen Minyao raised a slender brow after hearing his questions. Did he really want to know the answers for such questions?

She fell on one knee, cupping his chin, forcing him to look at her face.

"Contactor, are you sure you want to know? To bind your soul with mine to continue living, are you regretting it now?" She said with a mischievous smile.

"Contractor, do you know, our names are sacred and important for creatures like us? For you to know our names would mean that you are binding us to you for submission. That's not going to happen, human." The woman chuckled.

"But if you insist, you may call me Shen Minyao, since I now own this human body and identity."

"You are a demon?" He couldn't think of anything else to describe her. Looking a few meters behind her, he spotted one of his kidnappers with an opened midsection, as if he was mangled by a wolf.

Zhao Yichen furrowed his brows and tried to release himself from her grip but failed. This woman had such inhuman strength! To think that he made a deal with a demon! Oh Lord, what has he done to himself?

"Demon? Monster? What's the difference?" She said before releasing his chin. She stood up and Zhao Yichen could clearly see the nine long white tails behind her.

"I've been called worse."

He opened his mouth to say something, but no words came out. He wasn't that oblivious not to recognize the kind of creature this woman was. He had heard several folklore and legends of her kind, but Zhao Yichen had never thought that he would see and meet one in his lifetime.

In this fast paced, modern world, it was almost impossible to believe such creatures still existed.

"Ah, you can see my tails? Interesting." The fox woman smiled, her eyes flashing with mischief. She had heard tales of spirits like her entering a contract with a human, but she had never heard of a human being able to heighten his physical attributes after receiving her spirit core.

Perhaps because this man had her energy core, it allowed him to see past her magic. Normal humans wouldn't be able to see her tails and golden eyes, but her Contractor did.

Zhao Yichen tried to stand up, but the overwhelming pain that shot through him was enough to bring him to his knees. He gasped for breath as he broke into sweat. It felt like his insides were being stabbed repeatedly.

"Only the superficial wounds have healed so far. Do you really think that it's possible to fully recover in a few seconds? My, my, how silly." He heard the fox woman say.

Zhao Yichen looked at her as if she had grown another head over her shoulder. She could have told him earlier! Why did she wait for him to feel pain before informing him? Such a wicked fox she was!

If he had a choice, he wouldn't have made a contract with this fox woman!
