Chapter 970 I was so drooling!

As Sister-in-law Huang spoke, she couldn't help but glance at the little weasel. She couldn't believe that the child she had seen that day was actually a little demon in disguise.

After hearing her words, the little weasel became even more aggrieved: "It's not a dream! You clearly promised to take me home, but you haven't come yet. You broke your promise! Grandma Mountain Fox said that people who break their promises are bad people, they are liars."

After understanding the whole story, Sister-in-law Huang couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. In truth, she was also at fault. But who would have thought that such a fairy-like child was actually such a fluffy weasel?

Ye Wanxi was amused by the little guy's words and patted its head reassuringly, saying, "Alright, alright, she's wrong, but aren't you right too? You transformed into a child to find her, wasn't it because you wanted her to worship you? But you changed your appearance and didn't explain yourself clearly. How could she have imagined that you were a great immortal who needed to be welcomed back and worshipped?"

The little weasel was still unconvinced after hearing this, and he puffed out a few breaths of hot air before turning his face away from her.

Upon hearing Ye Wanxi's words, the Huang family members couldn't help but ask curiously, "Does this little monster want Zhenzhen to worship it?"

Ye Wanxi nodded and said with a faint smile, "Have you ever heard of guardian spirits?"

"A guardian spirit?"

"The so-called guardian spirits, as the name suggests, are the demon spirits that some families worship to protect the peace of their homes. They are divided into five categories: fox spirits, weasels, hedgehogs, snakes, and rats. Among them, fox spirits, weasels, and rats are the most common."

"I think this weasel came down from the mountain seeking offerings and to become a guardian spirit of the household. It happened to be attracted by the lady's urgent desire and chose her. However, it was young and inexperienced. It knew to transform into a child to lure the lady, but after getting her approval, it became complacent and forgot to explain the situation. As a result, the lady thought she had a dream and completely forgot about it."

"Since the lady agreed to its request, an agreement was reached with it. However, within the specified time, the lady neither went to fetch it nor made any offerings to it, so it thought that the lady had broken her promise."

Sister-in-law Huang looked embarrassed: "I really didn't know. If I had known, I definitely wouldn't have agreed so easily."

Ye Wanxi glanced at Sister-in-law Huang, signaling her to calm down: "Although household spirits can protect the peace of the home, the relationship between the worshipper and the worshipped is mutually beneficial. The worshipper worships the household spirit and receives its blessings, but if the worshipper offends them or even harms them, they will retaliate."

"This weasel waited in vain for the lady to come, and received no offerings. It then mistakenly thought that the lady was playing a trick on it and breaking her promise. So it possessed the lady's body to teach her a lesson, which led to this farce today."

As soon as Ye Wanxi finished speaking, the little weasel snorted coldly. Although it did not answer, everyone thought it was an admission.

Sister-in-law Huang never expected that her casual remark would lead to such serious consequences.

Upon hearing Ye Wanxi's words, Huang's mother seemed to have thought of something and asked in a low voice, "Is Zhenzhen's recent mental changes and her fondness for eating live animals also due to being possessed by this weasel?"

"Yes."

"When I went downstairs just now, Miss Ye specifically asked me to prepare several meat dishes for lunch, preferably roast chicken or rabbit, was she trying to lure it out?"

After hearing what Mrs. Huang said, the Huang family members suddenly realized what was going on.

At the dinner table, although they didn't say it, they were wondering why Ye Wanxi wouldn't eat the other dishes but only the roast chicken. Now they know why.

Ye Wanxi smiled as well: "Before I came, I heard from the second young master that because of the madam's unusual condition, the family has not dared to eat meat these past few days, let alone bring any live poultry home. I think this little guy has been craving meat for days and is already crying."

Sure enough, this little foodie was drawn out by just one roast chicken.

In fact, Ye Wanxi had already smelled the demonic aura permeating the Huang family mansion from the moment she entered, and she knew that the demonic aura was coming from Huang's sister-in-law.

Charcoal Head noticed this too, which is why he's been so restless. If Ye Wanxi hadn't been holding him, he would have pounced on Sister-in-law Huang long ago.

Ye Wanxi initially kept quiet, firstly because Sister-in-law Huang had a karmic connection with the little weasel, and secondly because it was clear that although the little weasel possessed demonic energy, it lacked bloodlust, indicating that it had not harmed anyone and should not be killed indiscriminately.

Secondly, since the two are entangled in cause and effect and share the same body, if the spirit of the little weasel is forcibly pulled out, Huang Da Sao's soul may also be injured.

The best way is to lure it out and then force it to leave Huang Da Sao's body on its own.

Therefore, Ye Wanxi deliberately told the Huang family that Huang's sister-in-law's unusual behavior was just due to excessive stress, in order to lower the little weasel's guard and then lure it out with food.

The little weasel was indeed caught in the trap. In the past few days, the Huang family invited several half-baked Taoist priests to come and exorcise it, but all of them returned empty-handed.

When Ye Wanxi first appeared, its animal instincts alerted it to danger, and it wanted to lie low and avoid conflict.

But after Ye Wanxi said those words, it realized that the person in front of it was nothing special, just like the others before, only half-baked and not worth worrying about.

That's when they lowered their guard and fell into Ye Wanxi's trap.

Hearing their conversation, the little weasel couldn't help but glare angrily at Ye Wanxi. Humans were indeed the most cunning animals; they had known of its existence all along and had even deliberately used roast chicken to lure it away!

It thought about it for a while, but it was still a little angry.

Weasels are notoriously vindictive and petty, and immediately turned to bite Ye Wanxi's wrist.

Before Ya could even touch Ye Wanxi's hand, he was so frightened by Tan Tou's roar that he wet himself.

The absolute superiority of their status instantly froze the little weasel, making it tremble with fear.

Waaaaah, what on earth is this black, dark lump of coal? Why is it so scary? Mommy Mountain Fox, Grandpa Tree, brothers and sisters, it wants to go home QAQ!

The Huang family was quite wary and cautious of the weasel, and didn't know what to do.

“Miss Ye, now that the weasel has come out of Zhenzhen’s body, what’s next…”

Mr. Huang's words were also what everyone present was most concerned about, and in an instant, everyone's attention was focused on Ye Wanxi.

Ye Wanxi didn't answer immediately, but looked up at Sister-in-law Huang: "Do you still want to worship it?"

"I..." Sister-in-law Huang hesitated, unable to make a decision for a long time.

Ye Wanxi turned to the little weasel: "Are you still willing to let her make offerings to you?"

The little weasel snorted arrogantly, "Do you think she can just feed me whenever she wants and not feed me whenever she doesn't want to? She looks down on me, but I look down on her too!"
