The Female Fox Spirit Gets Spoiled by the Big Shot
Chapter 151

Pei Chiyao suddenly became very interested in this Anthony.

Obviously, he must have guessed something related to Anthony's identity, but he wasn't entirely clear about it.

There were not many people in this world who could see through his true self, and being able to guess even a little about it meant they were highly capable.

Perhaps... he could really trust Anthony?

When Zhi Yao heard that those things were not aimed at her, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief. She reached out and tightly gripped Pei Chiyao's sleeve, her little face full of tension.

"Are you really sure it's not aimed at me?"

She was a little doubtful.

"No." Pei Chiyao was amused in his heart. "Why are you so timid?"

He grabbed Zhi Yao and strode inside.

The little girl was initially in a very frightened state, but as they went deeper inside, Zhi Yao realized that those things had absolutely no effect on her.

She instantly relaxed and curiously looked around.

Pei Chiyao set Zhi Yao down and sat down on the sofa in the living room.

He was in no hurry. Since Anthony had asked them to wait here, then they would wait.

He wanted to see what kind of trick this Anthony was up to.

After about fifteen minutes, Anthony finally arrived leisurely.

In his hand, he held something like a compass, which Zhi Yao curiously stared at. She saw that the needle on the compass was pointing directly at her.

The little girl was a little startled. "What is this? It's like a compass."

Anthony looked at the girl in front of him and was similarly taken aback.

He never expected that the cute little white fox, after turning human, would be so beautiful.

"So you're that little white fox?"

Although the answer was already quite clear in his heart, Anthony couldn't help but ask.

"Yes." Zhi Yao's gaze was fixed on the compass in his hand, as if she had seen some particularly interesting toy.

Anthony looked at Zhi Yao with a thoughtful expression.

Pei Chiyao didn't like the way he was looking at Zhi Yao, so he stood up and pulled the little girl behind him.

"Anthony, you know very well why I'm here. Likewise, my time is also precious. You had better tell me the solution to lift the seal right now."

"And those things in your room have no effect on me whatsoever."

He was not an ordinary spirit. Perhaps those things would work on spirits who had just cultivated into human form, or could be used to scare someone like Zhi Yao who was inexperienced with the world. But to him, they were nothing more than a pile of junk.

Perhaps Pei Chiyao's tone was too harsh, as Zhi Yao couldn't help but tug on his sleeve. "Pei Chiyao, you're too fierce..."

Anthony glanced at Zhi Yao, then looked at Pei Chiyao. "No effect? Are you sure?"

He narrowed his eyes, and his previously calm expression also became sharp at this moment.

He clearly... clearly smelled a scent similar to demonic energy from Pei Chiyao's body. Why would these things have no effect on him?

If they had no effect on Zhi Yao, he could guess it was because the seal on her had sealed her demonic energy tightly. But why... why would the man in front of him also be unaffected?

Could it be... that the compass was wrong?

As if to confirm Anthony's thoughts, the compass in his hand suddenly started spinning wildly.

Zhi Yao stared at the compass, wide-eyed, and hugged Pei Chiyao's waist tightly. "Pei Chiyao, is this... is it going to explode?"

Anthony's expression also darkened instantly. "How is that possible!"

He had used this compass for so long, and it had never made the slightest mistake before. How could this happen?

"Give it to me."

Pei Chiyao reached out his hand and, taking advantage of Anthony's distraction, snatched the compass from him.

But another strange scene occurred. As soon as the compass fell into Pei Chiyao's hand, it miraculously stopped, and the needle pointed at Zhi Yao again.

If Pei Chiyao wasn't mistaken, this compass... should be used for spirit-catching.

He narrowed his eyes and looked at Anthony. "Are you also from the Ji Family?" sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Nʘvᴇl(F)ire.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

The Ji Family...

As soon as these two words came out, Anthony was not only surprised but also became tense. "You... how do you know about the Ji Family?"

The once most famous spirit-catching family. Unfortunately... later, due to some incidents, the Ji Family fell into decline. Now, the people who knew about the Ji Family were either already dead or so old that they couldn't speak clearly.

Anthony knew about them because he had accidentally seen things his grandfather left behind, as well as this compass.

But... how did Pei Chiyao know about them?

He wasn't from the Ji Family!

"I've met Ji Lingshan. What relation is she to you?"

Ji Lingshan?

Anthony frowned, clearly trying to recall where he had heard this name before.

After a while, he suddenly looked up at Pei Chiyao. "Ji Lingshan? You've actually met Ji Lingshan?! She's still alive?"

The woman who was expelled from the Ji Family back then was still alive?

"She's dead. I killed her." Pei Chiyao admitted it nonchalantly, which startled Zhi Yao.

Oh my! Did Pei Chiyao not know that killing people was illegal in this world? The way he said it from his mouth made it sound as simple as eating, drinking, and sleeping!

And her father and brothers, those lawless people!

She really worried herself sick over them!

Anthony's expression changed drastically. "You... you..."

Pei Chiyao didn't intend to hide anything. "If you don't cooperate and tell me everything, I can't guarantee that I won't do something to you."

"Hmph, what a big mouth." Although threatened by Pei Chiyao, Anthony didn't panic. Instead, his expression became even more resolute.

"Mr. Pei, let me tell you, if I die, then there will be no one left in this world who can remove her seal. Because the Ji Family..."

Anthony didn't continue what he was going to say next.

Because he was the only remaining member of the Ji Family.

The others, or rather those skilled in demon-catching and versed in the art of catching demons from earlier generations, had already passed away a hundred years ago.

He, too, only learned these skills by chance, finding his ancestors' books and notes at home, coupled with a bit of natural talent, and through self-study.

Moreover, he could see at a glance...

"The seal on this young lady is that of the Ji Family."

She must have come into contact with someone from the Ji Family!
