My Evil Wife Is a Nine-Tailed Fox

Chapter 117 - Never Trust A Demon Like Me (2)

"You probably know who he is, so I don't need to introduce him, right?" Shen Minyao told Mu Qing nonchalantly. Since grim reapers like him could identify any human however they could do such a thing, Mu Qing would have known by now who and what Jiang Chen was. 

Mu Qing only hummed and didn't say anything in response. It didn't matter to him with whom this demoness got involved, so long as she wouldn't cause troubles to him. 

"Can you fly?" He suddenly asked, surprising not only Shen Minyao but also Jiang Chen. 

The fox woman tilted her head to one side and gave him an inquisitive look. Why would he ask her such a question? 

"I want to show you something, but we have to move to a higher place for you to understand the situation clearly," Mu Qing explained. 

"Very well," the fox woman replied, but Jiang Chen's presence reminded her that she could not take him with them if she was to levitate in the air along with Mu Qing. 

"Mr. Jiang, do you happen to know where we could find the highest building here in the fourth district?" She asked the sole human in their seemingly odd team. 

A human, a demon, and a grim reaper. Who would believe that they all came here for the same reason?

"Give me a moment." Jiang Chen pulled out his phone and searched for the information they needed. 

"That building is owned by ZX Entertainment in the northeast direction, but we can't go there." 

It was a private property anyway, and what would they say if they were asked why they wanted to see the rooftop? If they were back in Jiang City, Jiang Chen might be able to pull some strings in their favor, but not here in the fourth district. 

"Heh. Who said we need to ask for permission?" The fox woman scoffed arrogantly. "It's not like we are taking something from them. We only need to see what could be seen up there." 

She would not have bothered to ask and just fly with Mu Qing from where they were if Jiang Chen wasn't here with them. 

"Then, let's go." Mu Qing started walking ahead of them, not bothering to check if they were even following him. However, his expression was enough for the fox woman to sense that whatever was happening here at the fourth district wasn't favorable to the grim reaper. 

"Lord Hell, you are really an impatient one, I see," Shen Minyao commented. Still, she followed his lead, along with Jiang Chen, who was still a little wary of the presence of the grim reaper. 

Jiang Chen felt it was really weird for a demoness like Shen Minyao to not avoid a psychic like him, much less a grim reaper like Mu Qing. From the looks of it, it seemed that the two knew each other for a while now. 

The three reached their destination, but as Jiang Chen expected, ZX Entertainment was under tight security. How would they get to the rooftop if they couldn't find their way in first? 

"So… what's the plan?" He asked Shen Minyao. If they insisted on coming here, they'd better have a plan. What was it that Mu Qing wanted for them to see, really? 

"Xiao Bai," Shen Minyao called her familiar, and at once, the white fat cat's eyes shone brightly until the three of them were engulfed by the light. 

Jiang Chen was forced to close his eyes. The light that surrounded them was enough to blind him momentarily. He had no idea what was happening and what plan Shen Minyao had in mind. 

When it dissipated, Jiang Chen opened his eyes and noticed that another spiritual presence was covering his body. He looked down at his hands and thought that his body was almost like a ghost. 

"We are practically invisible to a human eye now. Unless they are psychics or they have their sixth sense opened, they wouldn't be able to see us," Shen Minyao explained, "Let's not waste our time here, then." 

Her feet lifted from the ground as she levitated in the air. Shen Minyao grabbed onto Jiang Chen's arm, and they soared into the sky, with Mu Qing following them this time. He had no time to react as he was already pulled up in the air by the fox woman. 

Jiang Chen shut his eyes closed, feeling the coldness of the evening air touching his whole body. To think that the fox woman would drag him like this… was she planning to kill him on the spot to get rid of him? 

Was she afraid that he would report her whereabouts to those people who were hunting her down? If he was killed by Shen Minyao now, would Mu Qing send his soul to the afterlife immediately? 

His whole body trembled not only from the coldness of the night but also from fear for his life. He realized right then that his life was practically in Shen Minyao's hands right now, and she could easily kill him without leaving a trace for anyone to see his remains. 

"How long are you planning to shut your eyes? You are missing the good scenery right now, Mr. Jiang." Jiang Chen heard the fox woman's voice. Only by then did he dare to open his eyes, only to find himself standing so close to the edge of the rooftop. 

Mu Qing and Shen Minyao stood without a problem next to him. Their long hairs fluttered behind them; they stood unbothered by the harshness of the cold wind. It only made Jiang Chen totally different from these two. 

"So, what do you want to show us?" Shen Minyao asked the grim reaper. 

Her question immediately reminded Jiang Chen of the reason why they came here. 

"See it for yourself and tell me what you could see from here," Mu Qing replied. 

Shen Minyao furrowed her brows but did as she was told.
