After Her Mother Remarried, The Metaphysical Princess Became Famous in the Capital

After failing her tribulation, the Grand Elder of the Xuan Sect reincarnated as a little village girl in a remote area! Her father was dead, and her mother was remarrying!

Her stepfather was ...

Chapter 117 He... Came

Although Tangtang is strong, she has also been spoiled a bit by her mother.

Unlike Zhengzheng, who looks honest and simple but is actually a clever little devil.

It was almost noon when Ye Xianya finally took Zhengzheng back.

After having lunch at Taoyuanju, Ye Xianya took a nap with the shrunken Zhengzheng, and then began to tell fortunes.

There were a lot of people coming to her for fortune telling today. As soon as Shen Furong went out, all the number plates were snatched up, and many people were clamoring for more numbers.

Because the news had spread throughout the capital, everyone knew that Taoyuan Residence had a spirit beast, and that this spirit beast belonged to Ye Xianya.

However, Ye Xianya did not want to exhaust herself.

Plus sign?

It doesn't exist!

When she was telling fortunes, Zhengzheng shrank to the size of a little bird and obediently perched on her shoulder.

The people who came to have their fortunes told all stared intently at Zhengzheng, looking as if they wanted to reach out and grab her, which left Zhengzheng speechless.

Don't think it's harmless just because it's so small now. If it bites you, it can definitely pierce through your body.

Finally, Ye Xianya kicked out anyone who came to see Zhengzheng under the guise of fortune telling.

In the end, only seven people remained.

She doesn't plan to issue the license plates that were taken away.

It's better if there are fewer people.

Today is the first time since her rebirth that she has encountered a place with such abundant spiritual energy. She couldn't help but absorb more of it, but she hasn't fully refined it yet and made it her own.

With the rest of the day available, she could use the time to refine the spiritual energy she had absorbed, allowing it to fully integrate into her body and improve her physique.

The person who came to have their fortune told was a woman who looked to be in her early twenties. She was pale, but her face and lips were very red, clearly indicating that she had applied rouge.

She was wearing a coarse cloth dress, which was so long that it completely covered her feet. She almost tripped over the hem of the dress when she walked over.

The people standing in line behind her were so startled that they quickly spoke up to warn her.

"Madam, lift your skirt a little and walk slowly, lest you fall."

After hearing their words, the woman slowed her pace, walked up to Ye Xianya, and slowly sat down in the chair.

“Miss, my surname is Hu, and I live in Wuli Village on the outskirts of Beijing. I heard that your fortune telling is extremely accurate, so I waited outside the city gate before dawn today. As soon as the city gate opened, I rushed over to wait for you. I’m so glad to finally see you.”

As the woman spoke, she grabbed Ye Xianya's hand and said, "Girl, you must save me, I...I don't want to die."

Upon hearing this, Ye Xianya gently patted the woman's extremely cold hand and said softly, "Madam Hu, don't be anxious. Tell me what's wrong."

"I've heard that you, young lady, not only know how to tell fortunes, but you can also pray for blessings and ward off disasters, and even... even catch ghosts and exterminate demons." Madam Hu looked at Ye Xianya as if she had grasped at the last straw, her voice trembling as she spoke, showing that she had been greatly frightened.

Ye Xianya nodded slightly: "Yes, I know all of these. Did Madam Hu encounter a ghost?"

Ye Xianya should have kept her question in mind. But when she did, the seemingly frail Hu Niangzi suddenly stood up from her chair, startling the people standing behind her.

“He…he must have followed me here, he’s nearby…he’s already inside, I…I smell something rotten, he’s here…”

After Hu Niangzi finished speaking, she suddenly squatted down on the ground, pressed her head tightly against her knees, her whole body trembling, and screamed in a hoarse voice: "Go away...go away...don't come any closer."

The people inside the house were terrified when they heard this.

Everyone looked left and right, instinctively crossing their arms.

They seemed to actually smell a putrid odor.

And...it seems even colder inside than before.

"Miss Ye... Miss Ye, is it really true that something unclean has come in?" The middle-aged man sitting in the back asked, trembling.

"Mm." Ye Xianya nodded.

Now everyone was even more frightened. Even Shen Furong, who was standing behind Ye Xianya, subconsciously grabbed Ye Xianya's clothes.

The people waiting inside for their fortunes to be told trembled. Just as they were about to leave, a gust of wind blew in and the door slammed shut.

"Ah..." Everyone screamed instinctively.

Outside the lobby, Ye Miaoyun, who was talking to Qi Jiu, heard the shout and rushed over to pull the door, only to find that the door was as if it had been welded shut and could not be opened at all.

"Xianya...Xianya..." Ye Miaoyun pounded on the door from outside: "What happened? Why can't I open the door?"

The people inside were terrified when they heard this, and rushed over. Together, they pushed the door open with all their might, and even Shen Furong was so frightened that she joined in.

Apart from Ye Xianya and Hu Niangzi, who was squatting on the ground trembling, everyone else ran to push open the door.

Of course, Zhengzheng doesn't count.

The little guy had already jumped off Ye Xianya's shoulder and was leisurely lying on the table, daydreaming.

The wine at the Drunken Immortal Pavilion next door smells amazing, but they only care about the best.

That small jar of wine costs ten taels of silver, and Sister Xianya said it was too expensive.

"Sister Xianya, I killed her, so will you reward me with a pot of Zuixianlou's fine wine tonight?" Zhengzheng suddenly jumped off the table and into Ye Xianya's arms, acting coquettishly.

In the past, it only knew how to guard the Vermilion Fruit Tree and cultivate itself. Every winter, after eating the Vermilion Fruit, it would go out for a stroll instead of guarding the tree.

Because it was afraid of encountering powerful human cultivators, it only dared to wander around those villages and towns, and occasionally it would stroll around some more remote county towns.

Of its gold and silver jewelry, only a small portion was stolen; the rest was found in a very hidden cave, which it took a long time to dig open.

Because of this, its knowledge is limited, and it has no idea that the human world is so fun, with so many delicious foods and drinks.

It now eats with Ye Xianya and the others every day, and it eats whatever she eats. It's so delicious!

Sister Fairy Sprout had set up an array, so it wasn't worried that the Vermilion Fruit would be stolen. From now on, it would follow her wherever she went.

"I only get ten coins for telling fortunes, but you charge ten taels of silver for a pot of wine? You wish!" Ye Xianya pulled it from her arms and put it on the table.

"Miss, the door won't open," Shen Furong said loudly as she turned around.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here. Please sit down." After Ye Xianya finished speaking, she formed a hand seal, and a faint light filled the room. Everyone instantly felt the cold atmosphere in the room dissipate, and they all involuntarily stepped back and sat on the stools at the back.

"Madam Hu, I've driven that ghost away. Don't be afraid, get up and sit down," Ye Xianya said softly, looking at Madam Hu who was squatting on the ground covering her ears.
