Antique Shop Zero: Disfigured School Beauty Becomes a Succubus to Pay Off Debts

The investigators were dumbfounded.

Husband...husband?

This woman, who is suspected to be the nine-tailed fox spirit Daji, actually called him "husband"?

Who is he?

Could he also be a figure from the legends of the Xia Kingdom?

Seimei Misawa's mouth was wide open, and his eyes were full of fear.

How could this happen?

How could this happen?

How could Tamamo-no-Mae call a man from the Xia Kingdom her husband?

Could it really be Daji?

Is this man also an ancient monster who has lived for thousands of years?

No, not possible!

Seimei Misawa cried out:

"Lord Nine-Tailed Fox, you must have mistaken me for someone else!"

Daji turned her head, her delicate eyebrows furrowed, and she exuded a murderous aura.

Seimei Misawa hurriedly said:

Have you forgotten the friendship between Onmyoji and you over the past thousand years?

"Oh, right, you also told me to search for divine objects, have you forgotten?"

As Seimei Misawa finished speaking, his whole body suddenly trembled, and he couldn't utter another word.

He mechanically turned his head to look at the magical objects in Jiang Chaosheng's hands.

Jiang Chaosheng possesses so many divine artifacts...

Could it be that the nine-tailed fox is helping him collect divine artifacts?

Seimei Misawa murmured listlessly, his eyes vacant:

"How could this be? How could this happen? So it was you who was helping him collect divine artifacts..."

Daji parted her red lips slightly:

"Noisy."

The next second, blue flames ignited on Seimei Misawa's body.

The old man's mournful wails sounded quite eerie in Xinghua Hutong.

Jiang Chaosheng looked coldly at the beauty in front of him.

He knew very well that he was definitely Daji's husband.

His own age was less than one-twentieth of Daji's lifespan.

Daji gently stroked Jiang Chaosheng's cheek:

"My lord, why do you look at me so coldly?"

Jiang Chaosheng pondered.

Could it be that because I'm the owner of Antique Shop Zero, she mistook me for her husband?

Is it possible that something unknown happened between the first manager and her?

So, she mistook me for her husband, the current manager?

As she was pondering, Daji's body suddenly emitted a white light, transforming into a demon core that shimmered with a snowy glow.

Jiang Chaosheng frowned and grabbed the Nine-Tailed Demon Core.

What... it's turned back again?

The soul-suppressing talisman on the forehead of the Jinghe Dragon King dissipated into scattered specks.

The evil crow flew back to Jiang Chaosheng's side to answer his questions:

"It turns out that Seimei Misawa was also related to her."

After Seimei Misawa's death, Daji briefly reverted to her demon core form.

If I had known this would happen, I would have killed Seimei earlier!

That really scared Blackie to death!

As the evil crow muttered to itself, it felt a chill run down the back of its neck.

He turned around and saw Jiang Chaosheng's deep eyes.

The evil crow shrank its head:

"I really didn't desert my post just now, I just..."

Jiang Chaosheng turned around and said:

"Old Long, drive."

The Dragon King of the Jing River opened the car door for Jiang Chaosheng and sat in the driver's seat.

Jiang Chaosheng opened the door and looked at the investigators who were exchanging bewildered glances:

"If you want a forbidden item to guard the Bureau of Anomalies, come to me for a trade."

After saying that, the antique car disappeared into Xinghua Hutong.

......

South China Sea, Zero Antique Shop.

Jiang Chaosheng placed the forbidden items one by one on the shelf.

The shelves in the back room were filled up a bit more.

Jiang Chaosheng walked to the counter and sat down, looking at the still rainy sky outside, a smile slowly curving his lips.

The Great Tengu Staff, the Nine-Tailed Demon Core, and the Five Emperors Poison Coins—three forbidden items were contained in one go tonight.

There are six more items. If I can collect six more forbidden items, I will be able to break the curse on me.

I've been in charge of the Zero Antique Shop for two months now, and I've managed to collect and recover six forbidden items, which is quite an impressive pace.

Jiang Chaosheng could now feel that the curse on his body had lessened considerably.

From now on, you won't only be able to go out on rainy nights; you can leave the Zero Antique Shop anytime it rains.

I haven't felt the joy of walking in the daytime for two months, and to be honest, I miss it.

Jiang Chaosheng looked towards the back hall.

Unfortunately, the old Dragon King is insane and cannot be awakened immediately.

Otherwise, I'd like to go out for a walk during the day tomorrow.

Can a nine-tailed fox also control rain?

Forget it, that woman is too dangerous.

By placing the Nine-Tailed Fox Demon Pill in the antique shop, with the antique shop's influence, she won't be able to cause any trouble.

This was the first time Jiang Chaosheng had felt pressure from a forbidden object.

When I first communicated with the Jinghe Dragon King, I didn't think it would be this difficult.

Jiang Chaosheng took out his diary.

I'm so tired and want to sleep, but once a habit is formed, it's impossible to break it.

Just like writing a diary, if you don't record your life for a day, you feel like the day is incomplete.

"Today was great; we managed to contain three forbidden items."

I've been curious about something lately, especially today.

Where do these forbidden items come from?

The Grim Reaper's scythe is in the back room, but where is Death?

Can the gods who govern death also die?

Daji only had one demon core left, so how did her physical body die?

Could it really have been Jiang Ziya who killed him?

The Dragon King of the Jing River lost his wife and children during the Tang Dynasty. Who plotted against him?

Also, how exactly did the Zero Antique Shop come about?

Jiang Chaosheng paused, writing.

The Zero Antique Shop can suppress those taboo things that do not belong to this generation.

It seems that Zero Antique Shop is more like a bug-fixing tool.

Anything that could disrupt the order of this era would be sealed away by Zero Antique Shop.

Jiang Chaosheng's eyes turned towards the basement.

However, the Zero Antique Shop, which serves as a repair tool, unexpectedly creates bugs on its own.

One of the rules of Zero Antique Shop is to imbue the forbidden sculptures in the basement with spiritual power.

After all, the quickest way to obtain soul power is to exchange lifespan for forbidden items.

In fact, the ability to acquire soul power is a bug that doesn't belong to this generation.

Jiang Chaosheng murmured:

"Could it be that the forbidden sculpture was of a higher level than the antique shop, forcing them to compromise?"

The forbidden sculpture is numbered [0-01, Emperor].

It appears to be alive, but requires the power of a soul to sustain its life.

Mysterious, very mysterious.

Of all the emperors in history, which one was he?

Jiang Chaosheng was lost in thought when he fell asleep on the counter.

About an hour later, a tingling, hormone-fueled sound rang out.

"Owner."

Jin Meiting walked over carrying a bowl of noodles.

Seeing that Jiang Chaosheng was asleep, he placed the noodles on the counter.

She bent over and stared at Jiang Chaosheng's face.

She was beautiful no matter how you looked at her. As she looked at her, Jin Meiting's heart pounded and an unnatural flush appeared on her face.

"Just touch it once, just once!"

Jin Meiting cautiously extended her groping hand towards Jiang Chaosheng.

Suddenly, a cold voice rang out:

"What are you doing?"

Jin Meiting was stunned for a moment, then turned around and saw a woman who was incredibly beautiful.

Jin Meiting immediately became alert, her pupils gradually turning into hearts:

"Are you the forbidden object that was just taken in by the back hall?"

Daji glanced at Jin Meiting indifferently:

"A mere succubus dares to seduce my husband!"

The next second, a terrifying pressure descended!

Jin Meiting's voluptuous body seemed to have all its strength drained away, and she collapsed to the ground, staring at Daji in horror.

So strong!

Because the bond between the Onmyoji and the Nine-Tailed Fox disappeared, and was forcibly awakened by Seimei and Misawa,

Daji is currently very weak and needs to recover in her demon core form for a period of time before she can truly recover.

However, when she sensed that a succubus or other evil creature was approaching Jiang Chaosheng, she couldn't help but appear to protect him.

Ignoring Jin Meiting, Daji walked up to Jiang Chaosheng, reached out and stroked his sleeping face, her eyes filled with heartache.

"How did you become like this?"

Daji's face gradually showed confusion:

"Are you really him?"

"no."

Jiang Chaosheng slowly raised his head.

Daji quickly withdrew her hand.

Jiang Chaosheng is a light sleeper and wakes up at the slightest touch.

These two women were bouncing around in front of me like they were performing in a play, and they were really grumpy when they woke up.

Jiang Chaosheng glanced at the back hall:

"Go back."
