However, at this moment, the jade pendant on her chest was suddenly pulled by an invisible hand, and a furry, little, red fox was sucked out of it.

The fox was carried by a gust of wind and directly flew to Sixteenth Miss’ hand.

Sixteenth Miss pinched Hu Lai’s neck with her left hand, and before Hu Lai could react, she slapped his back twice.

“Ahhh!!!”

Hu Lai screamed in pain. As his cultivation drained away, his limbs suddenly became powerless, and his entire body turned limp like a worn-out stuffed toy.

At no time had he been more aware than this moment that he was about to die.

However, the next moment, a slender white hand pinched his chin, causing him to open his mouth uncontrollably. Then, a pill was thrown into his mouth.

Just as he was about to spit it out, the pill dissolved into liquid and flowed down his throat. A shallow stream of energy filled his limbs.

This— this pill was actually a good pill!

After Sixteenth Miss fed him the pill, she casually threw him on the futon, took out a red handkerchief, and slowly, carefully wiped her hands.

After wiping the gaps between her fingers clean in slow elegant movements, she put away the handkerchief and looked at An Rugu with sparkling eyes, “However, his crime does not deserve death, so he is rewarded with a pill to heal his wounds. But right now he has no skills at all, and an ordinary person could easily kill such a formerly deadly fox.”

An Rugu said, “Then will the Lady of Mount Tai deal with this person who committed the crime of bewitching people together with him?”

“Foxes have their own laws, and humans have their own laws. If we deal with her privately, I’m afraid you won’t be satisfied.”

An Rugu understood in her heart; it seemed that this fox attendant also knew about the existence of the Special Cases Management Bureau.

“I understand. I will pass her on to the Bureau.”

An Rugu stood up, her posture straight and tall, even taller than Sixteenth Miss, and her already imposing aura became even more imposing.

There was a subtle flash of interest in Sixteenth Miss’ eyes. This emissary from blue sky that had fallen to the human world had an imposing look, like an Immortal descending. This was probably her true form.

However, this was just a guess. Perhaps only the Judge of the Underworld who had the Book of Life and Death knew whether this emissary was the real deity or a reincarnation of one. If it was a real one, then there would be no name written in the Book of Life and Death. If it was a reincarnation of one, then the opposite would be true.

Sixteenth Miss paused, seeming to have thought of something, and lowered her eyes to look at the fox on the ground who was celebrating his survival. “This fox has excellent aptitude, and he has mastered the art of cultivation at the age of ten years. He is a rare genius among the ordinary foxes, but no one has guided him onto the right path. I wonder if the Master can help him become a good person?”

An Rugu blinked, feeling a little surprised.

Why didn’t she take this fox with extraordinary talent away but instead want to throw it to her? What was her intention?

She was just an ordinary person, alone, and there seemed to be nothing about her that the Fox Clan could be interested in.

“Why do you put this upon me?”

Sixteenth Miss smiled, the curve of her lips sweet, “This fox is naive and can’t see through people’s hearts. Even if he hadn’t met Zhou Yu’er, he would have met Hu Yu’er and Wang Yu’er. He will have to face this disaster eventually. I hope the Master can take him and let him experience the ups and downs of life in the human world, so that he can achieve the perfection of Daoism.”

An Rugu felt that there was some truth in this and accepted the explanation, “It is a good deed to help others go on the right path. I would like to thank you for giving me this opportunity.”

“In that case, of course, I can’t let you work for nothing. From now on, you will be an honored guest in our Fox Clan.”

Sixteenth Miss threw out a fiery red token, and An Rugu caught it.

The token was in the shape of a diamond, with fox patterns carved on the front and thunder patterns carved on the back. 

“Once the token is taken out, it is like seeing the Clan Leader herself.”

Before An Rugu could refuse, the Sixteenth Miss had already disappeared as fast as she appeared.

If it weren’t for the fragrant scent lingering in the air and the token still in her hand, An Rugu would have thought the other party had never been there.

The next second, the originally quiet environment suddenly became noisy, and all the missing people reappeared, calmly continuing what the had been doing. The pilgrims continued to burn incense, and the Daoist priests continued to guide them.

An Rugu, who had a good memory, stared at the incense she had just burned.

She thought they had been talking for a long time, but in reality only a little incense was burned.

A fleeting dream, nothing more than this.

An Rugu called the Special Cases Management Bureau, and soon someone from the Beijing Office came and took Zhou Yu’er—who was at the peak of her popularity—away.

Zhou Yu’er was still clutching the fox pendant, terrified.

With Hu Lai’s departure, her dream of being the center of attention and her only friend who truly loved her were all gone. Having seen the top luxury of the entertainment industry, her horizons had already been raised; now she just wanted to calm down, shed some skin, and return to an ordinary life.

However, it turned out that the country actually had an official department that deals with such matters. She arbitrarily seduced people and mentally manipulated others, and she was to be punished.

She once used charms to enjoy the love and admiration of others, but now she had to repay for her sins by going to jail.

Thinking of this, she forced a smile that was uglier than crying.

It would have been much better for the ten-year-old fox if he hadn’t met her—and it didn’t seem like it would be a bad thing for herself either.

In the end, it was her greed that harmed both herself and the fox.
