Chapter 166: Once Born, It's a Cauldron Furnace
"My brother didn't lie to you, he really hates the scent of foxes," I said. "Hey, that's not right. The Ye Family are ordinary people, so why would the Ancestor of Foxes appear?"
While driving, Yu Rongling rubbed his chin in confusion.
"Ye Jiqing's father and my dad are friends. The Ancestral Fox Remnant Soul was given by my dad. In the Ye Family, each of the three family members has one of the Xuanjing's Jade Pendants."
"Are you kidding me? Did Xuanjing wholesale these from the Yiwu small commodities market?" Yu Rongling exclaimed in frustration.
I too felt deeply worried, "Even the Ye Family has Black Jade Pendants, it seems that Xuanjing gave them to everyone linked to him."
The ultimate goal was naturally to trap Yu Longting...
Was Xuanjing excessively persistent?
"Wife, instead of worrying about me, you should worry about yourself," Yu Longting said to me. "The Ancestor of Foxes split its Three Souls and Seven Spirits into ten Remnant Souls. Each Remnant Soul can easily possess you..."
"I'm not doing too bad, now that two have been eliminated, there are only eight left," I optimistically said.
Yu Rongling was skeptical, "Damn, if that's the case, sis-in-law, aren't you screwed? I heard my brother say that your body is extremely receptive to the Ancestor of Foxes' soul. After possession, your soul will be devoured and eroded, and one slip could mean no coming back."
"What else can I do? I was born with a body meant to accommodate the soul of the Ancestor of Foxes."
My heart felt indescribably desolate and bleak, something I had previously refused to face at Granny Wu's house.
Even when Yu Longting's face looked so terrible, even though I had guessed the truth.
Nevertheless, I still didn't want to believe that my own flesh and blood would treat me like this.
After seeing the Ancestral Fox Remnant Soul again at the Ye Family's, the gruesome truth became inescapable, leaving me with no choice but to accept and admit it.
After eradicating two of the Ancestral Fox's Remnant Souls and Spirits, there were still others left.
If I encountered them again, it was very likely I wouldn't be so lucky and could be easily deprived of my body by the powerful soul of the Ancestor of Foxes.
Yu Longting held my back and let out a cold chuckle, "Wanwan, what nonsense are you talking about? You're my wife, no one is entitled to use your body, least of all the Ancestor of Foxes."
His... wife...
I froze, feeling an inexplicable tightness in my chest.
"We just need to destroy those souls one by one, so their existence won't endanger you," Yu Longting paused before saying again.
Surprisingly, Yu Rongling didn't make trouble and agreed with his brother, "Sis-in-law, you're really lucky to have met my brother. Originally, you might have really become a Cauldron Furnace for the Ancestor of Foxes, but with my brother around, that's absolutely impossible."
My heart warmed with unspeakable emotion, "Thank you."
Soon after, Yu Longting had the business van stop at the entrance of the hotel.
I thought he might have left something in the hotel.
A dark shadow flew in through the window, and my shoulder suddenly felt heavy.
Looking down, it turned out to be that black cat.
So I'd left something very precious at the hotel.
Thank goodness Yu Longting was considerate, otherwise, this little creature might have been heartbroken.
I embraced the fluffy little black cat and leaned on Yu Longting, falling asleep before I knew it.
When I woke up, it was already the next morning.
My phone had many missed calls, all from Wei Yao.
I lifted my gaze to Yu Longting, who was looking at my call log with a smile that wasn't quite a smile.
To show I wasn't guilty, I promptly called back, "Hello, Wei Yao, were you looking for me for something?"
