Dressed as the last nine-tailed fox

Chapter 351: Converting Awang
"That's not the case." Ah Wang shook his head solemnly, "Wen Fei, I'm helping you. I'm trying to stop you from doing stupid things. Besides..." Ah Wang's eyes involuntarily drifted towards Yi Changle, and then he said solemnly: "You won't be a match for Miss Yi and the other three."

"Heh." Xu Wenfei smiled helplessly, and said with disdain: "Awang, don't be scared by their words. What about the prince of the Celestial Clan, the young leader of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan, and the Creation Instrument? It's all nonsense. They don't even think about it. With my ability, how can I possibly get in touch with people of that level?"

"But even if Miss Yi is not an important figure, I still believe that she can help me." Ah Wang said confidently, "For a while, I always felt that something in my body wanted to come out. I couldn't suppress it or control it. But when Miss Yi appeared, the restlessness in my body suddenly disappeared as soon as I saw her. I felt relaxed and comfortable in an instant."

"There's something in the body?" As soon as Awang finished speaking, Xu Wenfei's face changed immediately and he asked nervously: "Why didn't you tell me anything? What's wrong with you? Does your stomach hurt? Does your head hurt?" As Xu Wenfei spoke, he pretended to touch Awang's forehead.

Ah Wang stopped Xu Wenfei's movements and shook his head obediently, "Don't worry, it doesn't hurt. You always run around for me, and I was afraid that you would worry and be tired, so I didn't tell you."

"Wenfei." Awang took Xu Wenfei's hand and advised: "You know in your heart that I shouldn't be alive until now. Now, neither you nor I should keep you here. It's time to let go."

"I won't let go."

"Please, Wenfei, I don't want to become the evil ghost that Miss Yi talks about." Awang pleaded to Xu Wenfei with red eyes.

"I won't let you become a ghost, Awang. Don't believe them."

……

Yi Changle took in everything and exclaimed, "Miss Awang, you are sober as to be rare."

Hearing this, Xu Wenfei glared at Yi Changle and said, "You are looking for..."

Before he could even utter the word "die", Yi Changle gently waved his hand and cast a spell to block Xu Wenfei's mouth, freezing him in place. After glancing at him impatiently, he uttered two words from his red lips, "Very annoying."

The warmth from his hands turned stiff, and seeing Yi Changle's movements were effortless, Awang begged for mercy, "Miss Yi, if you want to take my life, I am willing to go through the eighteen levels of hell or the sea of ​​fire and swords. I will bear all the consequences. Please let Wen Fei go."

“Don’t kneel.” Seeing Awang bending his knees, Yi Changle hurriedly stopped him.

"That's right, she hates being kneeled to." Kaitian said sincerely, "If you really want her to do something, don't kneel to her."

Hearing this, Ah Wang straightened his bent knees immediately. He glanced at Xu Wenfei with red eyes and said, "Wenfei is not a bad person. He still has a long life ahead of him. He shouldn't be like me, rotting in the dirt forever in the dark slums."

"Is his nature not bad?" Kaitian couldn't help but roll his eyes. "If his nature is not bad, then there would be no bad people in the Three Realms, and the years should be peaceful and quiet."

“Miss Awang.” Yi Changle could not deny Kaitian’s words. “We talked so much before, and you should have heard a lot of it, but I still want to remind you again. The Xu Wenfei in front of you is not a human. He is a monster with yellow eyes wearing human skin. And this human skin he is wearing was peeled off from the real Xu Wenfei alive…”

"I know." Awang interrupted Yi Changle, "But what Miss Yi said were all things that happened before Wenfei came to Jinling. Now he is no longer... not a yellow-eyed monster, he is Xu Wenfei, Xu Wenfei with the same warmth as humans." As Awang spoke, he changed his position unconsciously, from protecting Yi Changle to standing in front of Xu Wenfei, and he looked as if he was on the same front with Xu Wenfei.

“Really?” Yi Changle nodded thoughtfully, but his eyes never left Awang. “But in my opinion, what you said is just deceiving yourself.”

Although Xu Wenfei was immobilized by magic and unable to speak, when he heard Yi Changle's words, he looked at Yi Changle with such vicious eyes that he wanted to tear Yi Changle into pieces.

"Don't you want to know where the real Xu Wenfei is?"

"Where? Miss Yi's question is very strange." Ah Wang looked confused. "If a person was... skinned, then he would definitely not be alive. It has been so long, if he is not alive, he might have been reincarnated... Wait!" Ah Wang's confused eyes gradually became clear. "Miss Yi, are you trying to tell me that he was reincarnated and went to Jinling again?"

Yi Changle didn't expect Awang's thoughts to diverge to such an extent. After pulling the corners of his mouth weakly, he shook his head slightly to deny it.

"Not in Jinling? Then could it be that he is in..." Awang's eyes lit up, "in the slums." Without waiting for Yi Changle to answer, the light in Awang's eyes went out helplessly, and there was even more inexplicable guilt on his face.

Yi Changle shook his head again and denied: "Not here either."

"Is that so?" Awang couldn't help feeling a little frustrated by the series of wrong guesses, but after hearing Yi Changle's answer, Awang felt more fortunate, "It would be great if he wasn't in the slums." Looking at Awang's appearance, it seemed that relief prevailed.

"Good?" Yi Changle was puzzled by Awang's relief and asked, "Why do you say that?"

"It is said that everyone in the world suffers, but people born in slums are always more miserable than others. Since they have endured the pain of being skinned, then... that person should suffer less in the next life." Awang's face was serious and sincere, but when she used 'that person' to refer to the skinned Xu Wenfei and paused every time she mentioned him, her inner unrest and guilt were completely exposed.

"Thanks to the yellow-eyed monster behind you, the real Xu Wenfei has not yet been reincarnated."

"Hasn't he been reincarnated yet?" Awang asked worriedly, "Is his soul still wandering in the human world? Wouldn't he have become a wandering ghost?" "Compared to what he is now, being a wandering ghost is considered good."

"Being a wandering ghost is considered good?" Awang frowned, "Is his soul going to be torn to pieces now?" Yi Changle said nothing.

Yi Changle's silence became a tacit agreement in Awang's eyes. Awang bit her lip and straightened her back, trying to block the fake Wen Fei who was much taller than her, even though it was an impossible thing to do.

"Can Miss Yi save him? He did nothing wrong and shouldn't have ended up with his soul torn apart." After trying to cover it up for a long time, Awang finally spoke.

"He shouldn't be dead, then who do you think should be dead?"

"Me." Ah Wang blurted out the answer without even thinking, "If someone must be killed, let me do it!"

Yi Changle carefully studied Awang for a while, and after making sure that she was truly ready to die, he slowly spoke: "Don't worry, neither you nor he will be killed. It's just that until now, you don't want to mention his name. Is it because the yellow-eyed monster behind you has taken over the name Xu Wenfei, or is it because deep down in your heart you can't accept the yellow-eyed monster, and feel pity for the real Xu Wenfei, or even guilt?"

"I……"

Seeing that Awang didn't know how to start, Yi Changle raised his hand and said, "Don't say anything, I think I already know your answer. There is one more thing I guess you should know, which will make your answer more firm." Yi Changle paused, then continued, "The real Xu Wenfei is now in Fuxing City."

Hearing this news, Awang heaved a sigh of relief, "It's good, it's good. He's not a wandering ghost, and his soul won't be scattered." But not long after, Awang frowned again, puzzled: "But since he is in Fuxing City, why did Miss Yi say that the wandering ghost was a good thing?"

"For no reason? I would never use these three words to describe anyone related to Fuxing City." Yi Changle reminded Awang, "Fuxing City respects women, and all male yellow-eyed monsters are like the one behind you, leaving Fuxing City and sneaking into the human world. But there is still so much gold buried underground in Fuxing City. It will be a lot of work to dig it out."

Yi Changle sighed, "Miss Awang, guess who will dig out the gold buried under Fuxing City?"

Hearing this, Awang analyzed carefully, "If women are respected, then such hard work will naturally not be done by women. But the men have all left the city, so there are not many people left in Fuxing City... Wait, there is still that person in Fuxing City." When he said this, Awang's face suddenly changed, "Could it be that ghosts are digging the gold in Fuxing City?"

"That's right." Yi Changle nodded and said, "Everyone who was skinned by the yellow-eyed monster had their souls trapped in Fuxing City. They dig for gold day and night without a break. Without exception, these people were skinned alive while they were alive, and even after death, they were not spared."

“Miss Awang, after knowing all the truth, do you still think that the yellow-eyed monster behind you is not a bad person?” When Yi Changle mentioned the word ‘nature’, he put emphasis on it, and his sarcasm was obvious.

Ah Wang, who had always found ways to respond no matter how difficult the answer was, suddenly fell silent. She really didn't know how to start. Even her always firm expression became a little hesitant. She couldn't understand why even the souls were not spared.

“If it was you who was skinned alive and worked day and night, would you be willing to forgive the monster behind you?” Yi Changle’s question made Awang’s already pale face even paler. His hands, which had been clenched behind his back, loosened weakly and slowly dropped.

There was pleading, despair, regret in the fake Wenfei's eyes... countless emotions intertwined, but Awang did not look back.

"Miss Awang." Seeing Awang letting go of his hand, Yi Changle promised: "You were forced to stay in the human world. Now the deadline has come. Since we have met before, it can be considered a fate. If you are willing to nod, I will send you into reincarnation."

Awang didn't nod, but she didn't shake her head either. She didn't even look back, but the attachment on her face couldn't be faked.

Yi Changle did not urge him. The facts were already before him. It was time for Awang to make his own choice. Only self-salvation could be the true salvation.

"I'm leaving." After an unknown amount of time, Ah Wang spoke in a hoarse voice, "If you do something wrong, you have to bear the consequences. Miss Yi, please help me."

Yi Changle nodded, then closed her eyes. As she opened her eyes, a lotus flower flew out from the center of her forehead and flew towards Awang. The lotus flower grew larger in the air, covering Awang entirely in the petals. A golden light flashed, and Awang disappeared from the spot. The lotus flower also flew back to Yi Changle's forehead.

Yi Changle saw clearly that until Awang disappeared, she did not look back once. Yi Changle guessed that Awang might not want to, or might not dare to. If she looked back, her determination to leave might not be so firm.

After sending Awang away, Yi Changle raised his hand to break the immobilization spell on the fake Wenfei. The moment he regained his freedom, the fake Wenfei pounced forward, trying to find any trace left by the long-vanished Awang.

As expected, Jia Wenfei's search was in vain, but he did not stop. Instead, he lay on the ground and kept searching, muttering: "Awang, Awang, Awang..."

"Hey." Kaitian approached Yi Changle and nudged him with his elbow. "Look at him, isn't it..." Kaitian pointed at Yi Changle's head while speaking. "Is there something wrong here?"

“Don’t say he’s crazy. Even if he’s dead, we have to bring his body back to Fuxing City.” Yi Changle’s tone was unusually cold. It was obvious that she didn’t have much patience for the yellow-eyed monster in front of her.

The fake Wen Fei glared at Yi Changle with bloodshot eyes, "Where did you take Awang? Give Awang back to me!" As he said that, he suddenly stood up and pounced on Yi Changle.

"Bang." Before Yi Changle could even make a move, Kaitian beside him had already kicked the fake Wenfei. The fake Wenfei was kicked against the wall and then fell heavily to the ground. "Bang." The two consecutive loud noises were painful to hear.

Seeing the fake Wen Fei grimacing in pain, Kaitian couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth. This kick was really to his liking. If possible, he would like to kick him a few more times.

"I didn't want to waste my words with you, but... forget it, I'll make it clear to you. Miss Awang has never been your property. She can go wherever she wants. She is kind but not overly loving. She is resolute and brave. Even without you, she can live a wonderful life. If it weren't for saving you, she wouldn't have been tainted with evil and almost became a ghost. You don't even dare to face her with your true face, how can you have the nerve to say such words as "Let me return Miss Awang to you?" Yi Changle lowered his head slightly, looking at the fake Wenfei with disdain in his eyes, "But it doesn't hurt to tell you, Miss Awang has gone to where she should be, a place you can never go. After all, you are a monster who doesn't even deserve to have the next life."
