Nine Lives, Nine Worlds of Tribulation

Memories are like ever-blooming stone flowers, yet only the self believes them to be eternal. Ultimately, what they bring is the ruthlessness of reincarnation; perhaps no one will wait this time.

Chapter 168 Seeking Knowledge and Inquiry

Lei Li grabbed Gu Changqiu by the collar and pressed him again, "Tell me the truth about the fox demon! Hurry up!"

Gu Changqiu turned pale with fright. "Yes, he's the husband my daughter brought home. But we discovered he's actually a fox spirit in disguise, and he's bewitched my daughter. Now he even wants to seize our Gu family's assets..."

Before Gu Changqiu could finish speaking, Lei Li pressed on, "Where do you live? Take me there quickly!"

Upon seeing this, Lin Ruixin frowned, stepped forward, pushed Lei Li aside, and said with displeasure, "Hey buddy, there's always a first-come, first-served rule, isn't there? This uncle asked me for help and even gave me a dowry. If you're going to give me your address, you should give it to me, right?"

Lei Li looked coldly at Lin Ruixin and said, "Girl, that fox demon is not someone you can deal with! You'd better be sensible and not get involved!"

Lin Ruixin couldn't help but laugh, "That's hilarious! If I can't do it, do you think you can? You just suffered at my hands!"

"you--"

Seeing that the two were about to fight, Gu Changqiu hurriedly spoke up, "You two immortals, gods! It's me, an ordinary person, who will suffer from your fighting! Why don't you use your skills on that demon? If you ask me, why don't you two go and eliminate that demon together!"

Lei Li squinted at Lin Ruixin, thinking to himself, "This girl may seem unreliable, but she's quite capable. If she's truly willing to join us, we could recommend her to the Grand Strategist... Perhaps we should first show goodwill and then observe her performance before making a decision..."

Upon realizing this, Lei Li's expression softened. "Since you've come this far, I agree to cooperate with this girl temporarily!"

Lin Ruixin rolled her eyes and nodded reluctantly. "I don't care. I'm just pursuing knowledge and learning. Fighting evil and upholding justice is also a learning process!"

Hearing that the two had reconciled, Gu Changqiu breathed a sigh of relief and secretly laughed to himself, "That's wonderful! I didn't expect that my trip to find help would result in finding two experts! Let's see how that fox demon survives!"

Lin Ruixin squinted at Lei Li, then glanced at Gu Changqiu and couldn't help but smile wickedly, secretly plotting something.
