My Evil Wife Is a Nine-Tailed Fox

Chapter 233 – Rebirth As A Human (2)

After Su Daji spoke to the fox, she then mouthed 'thank you' to Li Yun. Soon, she and the grim reaper next to her dissipated in thin air. Although she regretted many things, Su Daji willingly let go of her grievances and crossed from the world of the living to the afterlife. 

Su Daji's death only meant that the white fox now had the chance to possess her body before it started to deteriorate on its own. The fox and Li Yun then found Jiang Mo standing a couple of steps away from Su Daji's bed. 

Li Yun took pity on his friend, knowing that Jiang Mo couldn't even properly grieve over Su Daji's passing. He wouldn't be able to put her body to rest as well. However, it couldn't be helped. Only the two of them knew about what truly happened to Su Daji tonight. 

"It's time." The white fox was then covered with a golden light. Her form changed in front of the two humans and entered Su Daji's body. 

Li Yun, at the same time, set up a barrier to stop other entities from sensing the great disturbance inside the Su Estate. With the fox spirit's great power, it would be problematic if they attracted unwanted attention from others. 

However, the young shaman didn't expect the fox to have tremendous demon power. Never in his life had he encountered such a demon with such a power that was as strong and intimidating as this. 

It was like the fox could destroy the whole Su province at will. It was truly frightening, in Li Yun's opinion. This display had shown him a grim possibility. If his family was to face such a strong demon that was in the same league as the fox spirit, then they would have no chance of winning. 

Jiang Mo didn't say a word and only stared blankly before him. Su Daji's body began to glow in response, indicating that the process of possession had started. Perhaps the shock of knowing Su Daji had just died didn't sink in yet, and the man could only watch mindlessly as things unfold in his eyes. 

Initially, Li Yun was worried that the moment the white fox entered Su Daji's body, her concentrated power would turn it into dust like how other human bodies suffered. However, it didn't. 

Surprisingly, aside from the fact that her dead body was glowing, he couldn't see any damage on Su Daji so far. 

Her colors were even starting to return as if Su Daji was coming back to life. What the two humans couldn't see was that the fox spirit was also healing the internal damages the black magic spell left on this body. 

Her fingers twitched slightly before the two humans. At this, they knew that the fox spirit had successfully fused itself with the remnant of Su Daji. It didn't take long before she opened her eyes, but her irises had changed into an amber hue. She then blinked, trying to focus her sight. 

When she sat up, one could easily mistake her as the real Su Daji, but Jiang Mo and Li Yun knew better. Their Daji had already gone and wouldn't be coming back anymore. The young woman in front of them wasn't the same young woman they grew up with. 

Her long dark hair cascaded down her shoulders, and she lifted her head to look at the men standing next to her. The fox spirit was successfully reborn as a human. 

"It's surprisingly easy to possess her body," the young woman spoke softly, her voice a little hoarse and unfamiliar. 

The fox spirit ran her hand on her thick mane, pushing it out of her face. She then tried to wiggle her toes, amused that Su Daji's human body wasn't resisting her. Instead, it willingly allowed her to be ingrained within it, giving the fox spirit absolute control

Same face, same voice… but Jiang Mo and Li Yun could tell that she was a totally different person. This new Su Daji had the  air of arrogance around her visage and a glint of mischief in her eyes. 

"Since Daji willingly gave you her body as your host, please take care of it." 

The fox woman slightly cocked her head in acknowledgment. "Naturally." 

Jiang Mo didn't need to tell her what she should do. So long as the fox spirit was alive, so was Su Daji's body. She would be immune to common illnesses humans like the original suffered from. Even physical attacks and trauma would have no effect on her body anymore. What's more, with her heightened senses, she would be able to perceive danger much easier than normal humans. 

"What else did Daji ask you to do?" Li Yun asked the fox woman. It felt weird for him to talk to such a majestic creature occupying Su Daji's body. He was used to speaking with her in her white fox form for the past few days. 

"She asked me to save her father whatever happens and not inform him of her death. Su Daji didn't say it directly, but it seems she also wants me to ruin the ninth prince if I get a chance." 

Jiang Mo frowned at that. "The imperial harem isn't a safe place. You should know this." 

It was one of the places on earth that were filled with malice and never-ending schemes from others. Even if the real Su Daji chose to go to that golden cage, Jiang Mo would never allow her. He would stop her at any cost. 

"Oh? That's much better, then. There's no such thing as joy and peace at the imperial palace. It's filled with romance, jealousy, and every kind of human affair that is incredibly loathsome. Appropriate for a demon, such as me." The fox woman wore a bemused smile, far different from the warm one Su Daji usually had on her pretty face. 

Jiang Mo could only sigh before flopping down on a nearby seat. The exhaustion he endured from his long journey from the north to back home was starting to catch up with him. 

"I don't care what you are up to, but you have to promise me that you will take care of her body. Don't let anyone, especially the ninth prince, defile her." 

"Fine. You have my word." The fox woman tucked some stray locks behind her ear. "Is there something else?" 

"Don't let anyone know that you aren't the real Su Daji," Li Yun reminded her. "It would be a huge problem if they found out that you are a demon." 

The fox spirit chuckled at that. "And why should I be afraid of them?" 

"We aren't concerned about you. We are concerned about Daji's body," Jiang Mo corrected her. "It doesn't matter whether she has died or not; this body is hers. Since you are using her body, you have to protect not only her reputation but also her name." 

The fox woman gave him a good look. It seemed that Jiang Mo had changed tremendously since the last time she and Su Daji visited him at the northern borders a few weeks ago. 

Who would have thought that the young lady would lose her life like this, allowing the fox spirit to take over her body? 

Su Daji looked healthy a few weeks ago. No one would believe them if they said that Su Daji had just died. Wasn't it only recently that she and Su Daji had left to see Jiang Mo?

"You would also be my eyes and ears within the imperial palace." Jiang Mo clenched his fist as he thought about the newly crowned emperor. He couldn't wait for Xuan Yanrui to lose his head through his own blade. 

"Xiao Mo, I don't think this is a good idea…" Li Yun said worriedly. However, it seemed that the only reason for Jiang Mo to keep going was to kill the ninth prince, who caused Su Daji to lose her life so early. 

If the ninth prince hadn't taken an interest in her… 

The young shaman shut his eyes and sighed. There was no need to think of 'what-ifs' because it wouldn't change the fact that Su Daji had already died tonight. The maiden had just died at a critical time when Minister Su was imprisoned by the new emperor and when Su Daji was called to join the imperial harem at the capital. 

"You intend to kill the emperor?" The fox woman questioned Jiang Mo. "With your current ability, do you think you have a chance to kill him? Human, I think you are overestimating yourself. At this rate, not only would you lose tremendously, but you're also putting Su Daji's effort into naught." 

Jiang Mo didn't take her words as an insult, but instead, he accepted her criticism. He was aware of his strength and limitations. This was why he decided to get stronger. 

"I know that," he admitted. "But one day, I would have Xuan Yanrui's head.. I will wait for that day to arrive, no matter how long I must."
