My Evil Wife Is a Nine-Tailed Fox

The moment Qin Zhi arrived at the Qin family mansion, he was greeted by Qin Zhihao who had been anticipating his return ever since the news about Su Daji\'s escape from Qingqiu Mountain spread around. 

As of now, there weren\'t a lot of humans who were aware of her escape, and only the Li family was on the move to hunt the infamous nine-tailed fox demon, whose ancestor had sealed it for a hundred years. 

"Welcome back, milord," Qin Zhihao said with a polite bow, "I\'ve prepared the things you might need tonight. The preliminary reports are on your desk." 

Qin Zhi nodded at him and walked past him as the master ascended the stairs in a hurry. 

"You better make sure no one would disturb me tonight. Reject all phone calls, whoever it is," Qin Zhi commanded before he disappeared to the dark hallways of his vast mansion. 

Tonight was the first time he would do a night hunt in his demon form, something that he hadn\'t done for a while now. As he entered his room and closed the door behind him, Qin Zhi sauntered towards his desk and read the reports about his sister\'s disappearance from Qingqiu Mountain. 

Three mutilated bodies of humans were found around the scene, each missing livers that had no doubt been eaten by Su Daji in her attempt to satiate her immeasurable hunger. 

For his sister, who he knew to be a picky eater, to eat a human liver in such a state… it only meant that she was desperate. However, three human livers would never be enough for her in such a pitiful state. 

Unless she devoured another demon\'s orb or hunted a hundred humans to eat their high-quality livers, it would never be enough. His poor sister who had been kept inside a seal for hundreds of years… it was only natural that she would be too hungry once she woke up. 

\'Daji, where are you now?\' Qin Zhi thought. 

The mutilated humans who fell victim to Daji\'s hands were identified as hired killers. They did a lot of dirty work for several businessmen not only in Jiang City but also in neighboring cities and towns around. 

Having read the file, Qin Zhi changed his clothes from his dark business suits to a traditional white robe he used to sport centuries ago. As he stood before the mirror, he watched as his short black hair slowly grew past his shoulders, down to his waist; while his obsidian human eyes turned into golden orbs with slits on them. 

If a human would take a look at him now, they would never believe that he was the same CEO Qin that everyone was praising. With his elongated fangs and sharp claws, it would be impossible not to think that this devilishly handsome man was a demon after all. 

However, unlike his younger sister who had silvery, silky hair; Qin Zhi\'s long hair had a slightly golden hue, a touch of being unruly, and sharp edges at the ends. Still, it was undeniable that he had otherworldly features that would leave so many people in a trance upon seeing him. 

Once fully transformed in his demon form, Qin Zhi shut his eyes and used his spatial awareness ability that covered the entire Jiang City. Every nook and crevice of the city was scanned, not missing even the dead ends and hidden alleys to find demons lurking within his territory. 

However, he couldn\'t find a single hint of Daji\'s whereabouts. However, he noticed that the demon that took over the city hospital—which Qin Zhihao reported about—was nowhere to be found anymore. Instead, the demon was replaced by two presences Qin Zhi couldn\'t fully identify as demons or not. 

The city hospital was just too far from where he was, so he would need to see up close to know what they were. However, he had no time for that as he needed to check the seal at the Qingqiu Mountain where his sister used to be for hundreds of years. 

Qin Zhi cracked his eyes open, and he slowly vanished into thin air. Since he had been on Qingqiu Mountain hundreds of times ever since Su Daji was sealed in it, it was easy for him to travel back and forth without notifying the Li shamans of his late-night visits. 

"You really know how to hide yourself well, dear sister, but I will find you nonetheless," he muttered to himself, aware that it wouldn\'t be easy for him to find someone who didn\'t want to be found in the first place. 

The moon was already high up above the sky when he arrived at Qingqiu Mountain. The wind was a bit chilly, but not for a nine-tailed fox demon like Qin Zhi who was able to withstand the harsh weather of the seasons. 

As he descended at the place where his sister was sealed, he was greeted by the faint scents of human blood that permeated around the area. 

The rain wasn\'t able to totally wash away the blood that seeped through the soil and the cracks of the rocks where the seal was seated. 

Instead of only three distinct scents of human blood, Qin Zhi was able to pick up four different scents… which meant that there were four humans within the vicinity when Daji awakened. If the three humans were hired killers, wouldn\'t that mean the fourth one was with them? 

No. Qin Zhi shook his head. Daji would have obliterated them all completely if they were all hired killers, which only left him with the possibility that the fourth person was the victim. It was the man the three hired killers were supposed to dispose of that day. For Daji to allow that fourth human to live, it should mean something. 

It seemed that he had no other choice but to start investigating those hired killers to find their last target before Daji killed them, saving their victim in the process.
