My Evil Wife Is a Nine-Tailed Fox

"Milady, it\'s imperative that we know what kind of wraith we are dealing with." Xiao Bai agreed with the grim reaper. "If it\'s the most common wraith we are dealing with, it would be vexing for us as it won\'t stop until it gets what it wants from you." 

"How unfortunate." The grim reaper crossed his arms, the long sleeve of his black robe hanging in front of him. 

Shen Minyao furrowed her brows and pressed her lips into a thin line. Indeed, how unfortunate that she was the first one targeted by that wraith. Was it because her spiritual presence was more prominent than the rest of the demons haunting the ICU area? She wondered. 

"What do you mean \'what kind of wraith it was\'? Aren\'t they all inherently evil?" She asked. Wraiths did not only pose danger to the humans but also to demons who feed on negative life force. 

"That\'s true, but there are some instances that wraiths could be considered as \'good\'." Xiao Bai pointed out. "Just like Lord Hell mentioned earlier, if what we encountered earlier is a common wraith, it only meant trouble." 

"So you mean to say that there are several types of this creature?" The fox woman arched her brow. In her eyes, they were all the same. 

Perhaps the reason why there weren\'t many wraiths in the past was that humans back then had high paragons of virtues that they had enough self-control and awareness not to fall into the deep pit of hatred. 

"En. There are actually three types of wraith known, milady. The first one is the most common kind of wraith Lord Hell and I described earlier. It has an extreme rage that motivates its actions. Some variations of this first type of wraith are incredibly intelligent and capable of holding grudges while in their undead state. They will target an individual that they perceive has wronged them until they have captured its soul and can force it to wander outside the spirit realm for eternity. 

"The second kind of wraith is described as being a parasitic kind of ghost-demon. These creatures are the type of wraiths that inhabit any type of empty space until they find a human to meld with. However, unlike most creatures capable of possession, these wraiths do not make their presence known to the victim. It is unlikely that the affected person will ever know that they have been possessed by this demon." 

The fox woman nodded in understanding. In her long life, she had only encountered this kind of creature once in her past life, and to think that this modern era was able to make a rare wraith to be a common occurrence had surely surprised her. Humans in this era surely had no idea what kind of monsters they were breeding. 

"So the rare instances you mentioned earlier—the good wraiths, is it?" She still couldn\'t believe that a wraith could be classified as good as Xiao Bai claimed. From the strength and prowess the wraith showed earlier, it was impossible for Shen Minyao not to sense its intense hatred. 

There was no way it was a good wraith.

"It\'s extremely rare, milady. This type of wraith follows the soul of a person from the time they are born until the time they die," Xiao Bai replied, tuning out of the wailing of the human who had just lost his beloved grandfather, not aware that the spirit had turned into a malevolent wraith. 

"Extremely rare that I haven\'t encountered one," the grim reaper said in a matter-of-fact tone. He had received a task to collect this old man\'s soul tonight. However, the moment he stepped into the hospital, he encountered a human shell with a demon soul inhabiting it. 

The grim reaper knew that he shouldn\'t meddle with the demons unless they gave him troubles. However, he couldn\'t help but be curious about this demon who was able to possess a human body. The human soul had already departed from this mortal world, yet her own body still functioned as if it was still alive and well with a demon possessing it. 

"Well, he surely wouldn\'t fall under the third type, given how agitated and angry he was." The fox woman commented, pinching the bridge of her nose and taking a deep breath. This wraith proved to be problematic. It was enough to give her a headache while thinking about how they should deal with it. 

"Since neither of us could defeat it, why don\'t you go and find a shaman that could exorcise it?" He told Shen Minyao. He was a person working for the netherworld, and while he was strong enough to defend himself from its attacks, he wasn\'t the right person to deal with it. 

"Me, asking for a shaman for help?" She huffed and glared at him. "I see you really want me to push for my own death." 

There was no doubt that once those shamans saw her, they would realize what she was and would try to exorcise her soul from her body. 

"Your human host\'s soul has been long gone and has already crossed the spirit realm. Are you afraid that they will exorcise you instead of the wraith?" The grim reaper asked in return. "If you don\'t want to seek a shaman for help, then go and find a priest or a priestess." 

"Since you were the one who thought of that idea, why don\'t you do it yourself, oh dear Mr. Grim Reaper? I like to see how you would deal with them." The fox woman spat venomously. 

This grim reaper was really hateful! He kept pushing the wrong buttons to annoy her! 

Anyway, that was the only option they could do to kill the wraith since neither of them was capable of doing it on their own.. If they failed to kill the wraith, it would surely haunt the place, causing more mortality to the humans and would put Zhao Yichen\'s life in danger by being close to it.
