Chapter 13 The Fox
He was extremely beautiful.
He was one of the finest specimens among nine-tailed foxes.
His great-grandmother was the Daji who brought chaos to the Shang Dynasty a thousand years ago.
And his name was Da Ling.
Over the years, many women had been bewitched by his appearance. Some wealthy young ladies even eloped with him under the guise of running away.
He committed evil for a long time.
Until he met my master.
Yes, my master was also an unparalleled beauty... no, to be precise,
he was an unparalleled handsome man.
Master had made a great vow from a young age to capture all evil demons in the world.
Unfortunately, he was born in the wrong era. After the founding of the country, demons could no longer cultivate freely.
The number of monsters had greatly decreased.
Many ancient ones hid deep in the mountains and old forests, staying out of sight.
Later, Master took over the inn and became the eleventh successor of Mingyue Inn.
He guarded the two monsters in Qiuyue Valley—Qiu Gu and Hua Pi Gui—while living his days.
Then Da Ling arrived.
The moment he saw my master, he took a liking to him.
Later, he forced himself on Master.
According to Master, he had pretended to surrender. Once the fox demon became completely devoted, he used his demon-catching technique.
Later, I hid in the wardrobe in the room.
I saw Master personally drive the seal into Da Ling's heart.
His heart shattered into pieces in an instant.
Da Ling without a heart would not die.
But he could no longer go down the mountain to commit evil.
He questioned Master, "Why did you do this to me?"
Master took out a ring from his pocket.
It turned out Master had been married long ago.
From then on.
After Master passed away,
Da Ling completely became a heart-digging fox demon.
He only dug out the hearts of unfaithful men.
