My Evil Wife Is a Nine-Tailed Fox

Chapter 121 - Easier Said Than Done (1)

Shen Minyao and Mu Qing were obviously having a hard time dealing with the leader of the crow demons. He was just so fast that it was difficult even for the fox woman to keep up with his pace. She couldn't do anything but block his attacks using her fan. 

Still, the grin on her face remained, as if she was enjoying this battle. As for how she could find such entertainment in this situation, Jiang Chen had no idea. Still, he had to admit that the barrier she made earlier was strong enough to keep the other crow demons from leaving. Was she planning to devour these demons all at once? 

Because of his mere human eye, Jiang Chen found it hard to see what was happening in the battle. He could barely see Shen Minyao's movements at all. Was there even a sliver of hope that they would win this battle? 

Suddenly, Shen Minyao and Mu Qing were hit at the same time by the powerful blast sent by the crow demon. The two were sent crashing to the glass windows of the building underneath them, making the humans scream from the sudden impact that shocked them. 

"What's happening? Are we under attack or something?" One of the humans asked as they took the emergency exit to save themselves. The windows continued to break, and the whole floor was crushed by an invisible force none of them could see. 

"Stop asking questions and hurry!" Another one exclaimed. 

Thankfully, it was already past working hours, so there weren't many humans in the business district where ZX Entertainment was. The battle continued as Shen Minyao refused to back down and accept defeat. 

The fox woman spat out the blood from her mouth and wiped her lips with the back of her hand as she stood up. 

"How annoying." She muttered to herself, as she brushed off the dirt from her clothes. The crow demon was too fast; she couldn't even land a blow on this person. 

Mu Qing also easily got back on his feet without any injury. Not even a speck of dirt was on his person. 

"We should end this as soon as possible," she told the fox woman. 

"I know, but that's easier said than done." Shen Minyao hummed as she closed the fan in her hands. 

The crow demon hovered in the air and looked down at the two with contempt in his eyes. He hadn't fought with other demons for a long time and wondered if these two had come to destroy their future plans. 

His eyes then shifted to the fox woman standing next to the grim reaper. Was this the infamous nine-tailed fox demon his new master was looking for? If she was, then there was no way he would be allowed to kill her. His master wanted to capture the escaped fox demon alive. 

He gritted his teeth in annoyance. He wanted to avenge the death of his fellow crow demons, but he could not kill this fox woman? Ha! That didn't mean he wasn't allowed to torture her, right? His eyes were set ablaze, his hatred towards the fox demon continuing to rise. 

Shen Minyao chuckled as she sensed such hatred coming from the crow demon. He was angry, and yet something was stopping him from killing her. What could it possibly be? 

'Hmm. This kind of look. Why does this remind me of that spider demon?' 

Ah, what could this possibly mean? Were they somehow related to each other?

However, this was no time to ponder about such a possibility. There was nothing more important now, aside from killing this demon to gain his powerful orb. Ah, thinking about it, his demon orb would be worth as many as a thousand crow demons at once. If she was to devour it, then her rank would surely rise significantly. 

Now, now, how was she supposed to do that? This crow demon was just too strong for her. It wouldn't be easy to defeat him, given how weak she was right now. 

"Let's find its weakness. I suppose crow demons have one?" Mu Qing asked her. 

The fox demon hummed as she considered his question. There wasn't much known about the crow demons, except for them sticking to their murder and hunting together. As for its weaknesses, Shen Minyao had an idea of what it would be, but she needed to prove it first. 

"I don't know…" Shen Minyao said in response, walking towards the pile of ruins that was made during their collision against the building. 

"Detestable fox. You will pay the price for killing my comrades." The leader of the crow demons sneered at Shen Minyao. 

"Enchant." The fox woman flicked her fan open, her golden eyes shone brighter than ever. 

Suddenly, the time seemed to stop within the barrier the fox woman made, the humans stood unmoving in their places. They all looked up at where she was standing as if they were revering her as their god. Only Jiang Chen wasn't affected by her enchantment spell. 

"W-what's happening now?" Jiang Chen braced himself, trying his best to resist the fox woman's spell. 

"Come forth, my little ones, and serve your master to the fullest." Shen Minyao snickered behind her fan. She hadn't done this for a long time, as it consumed a lot of her spiritual powers. Still, it wouldn't hurt to try and see how the crow demon would react to her plan. 

This spell was a reason why the nine-tailed fox woman earned her spot as one of the most dangerous demons. No demons in history had killed so many humans at once other than 'Su Daji'. Would she do so again, just like what she had done in the past?

"Shen Minyao! Don't go overboard! If you kill these humans, you will pay a price!" Mu Qing yelled at her.. If she was to start another massacre, he wouldn't be able to cover for her for once and for all.
