Seeking Vengeance for His Sister

This is a very common red fox, with smooth and glossy orange-red fur and a large, fluffy tail that makes you want to pet it.

"Wow, what a beautiful fox!"

Even Zhao Wan couldn't help but silently praise Yin Yunze in her mind.

In most people's eyes, Yin Yunze is still a fox spirit, and Zhao Wan naturally has a fondness for foxes as well.

However, around the fox's neck was a chain about the size of an adult's thumb, and the other end of the chain was held in the old man's hand.

Look, this fox seems to be kept in captivity by the old man. It doesn't seem to resist being led like this; instead, it follows the old man step by step.

After glancing at it with interest, Yin Yunze did nothing more.

People keep tigers, lions, and even elephants as pets, so keeping a fox is quite normal.

Although it is indeed rare to see them dragged directly onto the main road.

Even though he has the identity of a fox spirit, Yin Yunze is not a real fox, and he wouldn't really pick a fight with someone just because of an ordinary fox.

Even as he approached, Yin Yunze became somewhat wary, keeping a close eye on the fox in case it suddenly attacked and bit him.

Even domesticated dogs can bite suddenly upon contact, let alone untamed foxes.

Even though it looks quite good, Yin Yunze wouldn't let his guard down just because of that.

However, whether it was his imagination or not, Yin Yunze noticed that the fox he was staring at actually showed a hint of fear in a very human way.

If you hadn't reacted, Yin Yunze might have glanced at it twice and then looked away. But seeing the fox's expression, Yin Yunze couldn't help but glare at it again.

"Huh?"

Just as Yin Yunze's attention was focused on the fox and he inadvertently brushed past the old man, Yin Yunze heard a surprised sound come from the old man's mouth.

Yin Yunze assumed that the old man had noticed him glaring at the fox, so he quickly looked away and pretended not to notice as he continued forward.

However, he might have been discovered, because Yin Yunze sensed that the old man seemed to be staring at his back.

However, Yin Yunze quickly realized that this might simply be his guilty conscience. Thinking about it carefully, it was rather strange for a ten-year-old girl to be walking alone on a country road without an adult; it wasn't unreasonable to glance at her a few times.

Shaking his head, Yin Yunze wondered if he was becoming paranoid because of his recent encounter with the two immortals at Tomb of Prince Jing.

Keep a positive attitude and move forward. Yin Yunze soon noticed that the old man had also withdrawn his gaze.

However, Yin Yunze, who had already walked away, did not hear this. After the old man withdrew his gaze, he suddenly tugged at the chain in his hand and asked, "Tell me, have you noticed that something seems off about this little girl?"

The old man's question seemed rather strange, because there was no one else around him.

But the next moment, the large orange fox beside the old man suddenly spoke in a high-pitched, somewhat hoarse voice. "I sensed a strange aura about him. It seems related to our fox clan, but upon closer inspection, it's quite different. And, I'm a little afraid to look at her..."

"Then that's it! That day, the expert from the Yin Immortal Sect... after that, the evil spirits here either died or fled! Now, apart from the fox demon that Second Sister mentioned, the one she didn't get along with, there probably won't be another one! Sure enough... instead of staying in her den, that fox demon came out to court death!"

As they spoke, the old man took out a shimmering green sphere from his robes, held it out to the fox, and instructed, "Continue walking towards Clear Creek Village. That fox demon is possessing that little girl; it's the perfect opportunity for me to strike! Once I injure it and it breaks free from the girl, it will definitely flee towards Clear Creek Village. At that time, use this Soul-Capturing Pearl to capture its soul!"

Looking at the Soul-Capturing Pearl, a hint of human-like sorrow appeared on the fox's face.

"Yes."

Although reluctant, the fox still opened its mouth and bit the Soul-Capturing Pearl.

Seeing that the fox agreed, the old man loosened the chains.

Strangely enough, after the old man loosened the chain, it transformed into a black collar. However, it remained tightly wrapped around the fox's neck.

As the fox with the Soul-Capturing Pearl in its mouth ran towards Clear Creek Village, the old man strode after it in the direction of Yin Yunze.

"Little girl!"

Yin Yunze was walking alone when he suddenly sensed someone rapidly approaching from behind, and then he heard a call.

Subconsciously turning his head, Yin Yunze saw the old man who had been leading the fox earlier chasing after them again.

However, what bothered Yin Yunze was that the rather beautiful fox the old man was leading was nowhere to be seen.

"Grandpa, what's wrong?"

Yin Yunze's eyes showed a hint of wariness as the old man approached, but he didn't take it too seriously.

Yin Yunze thought that the old man was at most a human trafficker with ulterior motives.

As a Land God, even if he is not on his own territory, he is not afraid of a human trafficker.

"Hehe." The old man smiled calmly, walking towards Yin Yunze as he said, "I just have a few questions I'd like to ask you, young lady."

"Stand over there and don't move." The old man's behavior undoubtedly confirmed Yin Yunze's guess. He said impatiently, "I have no interest in answering your questions!"

"Young lady, I see you're coming from that direction. Could you be from Clear Creek Village?" But the old man seemed not to hear him, continuing, "I wonder if you know Wang Guihua?"

Who is Wang Guihua? I don't know her!

He subconsciously replied, and as he watched the old man approach, Yin Yunze backed away, his hands reaching for his belt.

"My name is Wang Guisheng, Wang Guihua is my second sister. Although she is both stupid and wicked, and killed our little sister for a Law Technique she couldn't possibly master, she is still my sister, my only blood relative."

As he spoke, a trace of sorrow seemed to appear on Wang Guisheng's face. He sighed, "But just recently, I heard that she was burned to death by a restless wild fox demon! And my nephew, he was the only bloodline of my Wang family..."

"It can't be such a coincidence, can it?"

Upon hearing this, Yin Yunze immediately realized that the so-called blood relative sister Wang Guisheng spoke of was none other than the Spirit Medium Wang Yin Yunze had burned to death earlier.

Unexpectedly, after so long since Spirit Medium Wang died, Yin Yunze only now truly knows her name.

Although judging from her appearance, Spirit Medium Wang looked about ten years older than her so-called brother, it would be normal for her to look younger if he were a cultivator with extraordinary powers.

Not to mention, in this ancient society, women in rural areas tended to age more easily than men.

Yin Yunze's only concern was that it had been over a month! Why did they have to come now of all times?

Two days ago, Yin Yunze was still in Clear Creek Village, in his complete form as the Land God.

Two days later, Yin Yunze also finished his business in the county town and returned to Clear Creek Village, still in his complete form as the Land God.

Just these past few days, right after Yin Yunze stepped out of Clear Creek Village, he ran into it.

If this hadn't been a last-minute order that Yin Yunze hadn't given him beforehand, Yin Yunze would have suspected there was a mole among the people.

"Wait a minute! Song Ran!"

Just as he realized that no one would have had a chance to notify him, Yin Yunze suddenly thought of Song Ran, who had gone to the county town alone ahead of time.

And this Wang Guisheng happened to come from the county town.

Wang Guisheng is Spirit Medium Wang's brother, so he's naturally from Clear Creek Village. Clearly, Song Ran probably knows him too!

If we rule out the possibility of pure coincidence, then whether it was intentional or unintentional, the most likely explanation is that Song Ran revealed Yin Yunze's situation to Wang Guisheng!

However, these are no longer things for Yin Yunze to worry about! With these thoughts in mind, Yin Yunze's hands moved quickly. He swept his hands across his waist and inserted four different types of characters between Yin Yunze fingers.

To avoid being flustered during combat, Yin Yunze had practiced this technique diligently for a long time. Now, using it, he executed it flawlessly and without the slightest confusion.

"Monster! I can tell you're not human at first glance!"

At this moment, Wang Guisheng's nonsense came to an end.

This sudden remark caught Yin Yunze off guard for a moment.

Your next sentence isn't going to be "Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon," is it?

Thinking this, Yin Yunze suddenly felt a chill on the back of his neck, as if something was about to grab it.
