'A Fox Demon?'
Shen Bai frowned as he watched Zhang Chaofeng cry, snot and tears streaming down his face.
'I just dealt with a group of Fox Demons, and now another one shows up,' Shen Bai thought. 'The mastermind behind this is getting interesting.'
"Old Zhang, calm yourself. Sit down and tell me what happened, slowly," Shen Bai soothed.
Reassured by Shen Bai, Zhang Chaofeng found a seat and recounted what had happened.
"I took my wife back to her family's home. We'd only had a few peaceful days when a fox suddenly appeared in the village."
"Every day, this fox would bring gifts to the village. The villagers all said it was a Fox Girl repaying a debt of gratitude, that it was an Auspicious Beast."
"But after a few days, the villagers started dying one by one. Every single one of them was found completely withered and emaciated."
"My wife... my child... neither of them escaped. I only survived because I'm not originally from the village."
