Chapter 152


    As expected!


    Ji Lingshan and Anthony, these two people were both from the Ji Family. Perhaps... Zhi Yao was destined to have a connection with the Ji Family.


    "Seal..."


    Zhi Yao looked at the two people in a daze,pletely unaware of what they were talking about.


    She knew there was a seal on her body, ced by her mother! But what did it have to do with the Ji Family?


    She had stayed in the Fox Vige for a few hundred years, never imagining that she could have any connection with the outside world or people.


    "What are you talking about?" Zhi Yao nervously tugged at Pei Chiyao''s sleeve. "Pei Chiyao, are you mistaken? I''ve never seen anyone from the Ji Family."


    Pei Chiyao looked at her and sighed lightly, "Yao Yao, there is indeed a seal on your body, but not one ced by your mother. To be honest, even your mother doesn''t know who ced it, and you don''t have any memory of it either?"


    As he spoke, a look of bewilderment appeared on Zhi Yao''s face.


    She truly had no recollection.


    Not a single bit.


    Seeing the little girl''s confusion, Pei Chiyao gradually became clearer in his mind.


    Perhaps... Zhi Yao had lost a portion of her memory, which could exin why she had no impression of that incident.


    "Impossible." Anthony eyed Zhi Yao. "You must have seen someone from the Ji Family."


    He refuted what Zhi Yao said and was about to continue when Pei Chiyao cut him off.


    "Anthony, I have no patience for this anymore. I only want to know, since you said you have a way to deal with the seal on Zhi Yao, what is the method?"


    "I don''t know," Anthony said inly. "The seal on her is not a simple one, but a long-lost seal, possibly ced by the family head himself. I... I haven''t learned about it."


    The only reason he left his business card was to lure Pei Chiyao over. Because he had sensed a strong demonic aura from Pei Chiyao, but he couldn''t see through Pei Chiyao''s true form at all.


    What was even more deadly was... his usually proud mind-reading ability waspletely ineffective on Pei Chiyao.


    He couldn''t see through this man''s thoughts at all.


    But he could still see through Zhi Yao''s thoughts with a single nce.


    "You haven''t learned?" The hope that had just risen in Pei Chiyao''s heart was suddenly shattered by Anthony.


    His patience was instantly exhausted. "Anthony, do you know what happened to those who tried to deceive me with this matter?"


    He didn''t believe that Anthony hadn''t done his research before provoking him.


    Anthony should know perfectly well what kind of person Pei Chiyao was.


    But Pei Chiyao didn''t act immediately, as he knew Anthony must have another card up his sleeve.


    As expected, Anthony immediately said, "I''m not deceiving you. At least I do know about seals. If you truly want to break the seal, then you must go to Xuanling Town."


    Xuanling Town...


    That ce again.


    The same ce that had appeared more than once.


    "Where exactly is this ce?"


    He had searched for so long, but couldn''t find a single piece of information or clue about this ce.


    Upon hearing this, Anthony revealed a slightly mocking smile, "Of course you couldn''t find this ce, because... this ce no longer exists."


    No longer exists?!


    Pei Chiyao narrowed his eyes. "Are you trying to die?"


    Using a non-existent ce to deceive him, to buy time?


    This time, Pei Chiyao had lost his patiencepletely. He must have been crazy to believe someone from the Ji Family.


    As far as he knew, the Ji Family were people who would stop at nothing to capture demons.


    Anthony was clearly interested in him because he couldn''t see through Pei Chiyao''s identity, and wanted to seize him to find out.


    But unfortunately, Pei Chiyao didn''t have the patience to y such a lowly game.


    He suddenly pulled out the gun hidden in his sleeve, its ck muzzle pointing straight at Anthony''s head.


    Zhi Yao waspletely dumbfounded, still in the dark about what was happening and why the situation had suddenly escted.


    "Pei Chiyao, what... what are you doing? Don''t do anything here!"


    This was a bustling city center. If he killed someone here, the police would soon discover it, and it would be difficult to escape.


    "If... if you really want to kill him, let''s knock him out first, then drag him to a deste countryside, and then you can..."


    Anthony: "..."


    He was truly speechless.


    Even Pei Chiyao didn''t expect the little girl to say such a thing and couldn''t help butugh. "Silly baby."


    Zhi Yao was still here, so he wouldn''t directly shoot and blow Anthony''s head off. That would be too bloody, and he was afraid of scaring the little girl, who might have nightmares and not sleep well, which would worry him.


    "Alright. Turn around, I know my limits."


    Zhi Yao stared at Pei Chiyao for a while, but eventually sumbed to his burning gaze and turned away.


    Yet Anthony remainedpletely calm. "I don''t believe you have the guts to kill me here. I''m the only person from the Ji Family who still understands demon hunting. If you kill me, yourst lead will be cut off."


    As he spoke, he sat down and picked up the tea from the living room table, sipping it slowly.


    Thisposure actually helped Pei Chiyao calm down a bit.


    "You still have leads?"


    "Mmhm." Anthony didn''t answer directly. "Oh, I''m sorry, I forgot to tell you one more thing."


    "That seal... is a time-limited one."


    Pei Chiyao stared straight at Anthony, unaware of what he meant.


    However, Anthony suddenlyughed, a rather maliciousugh.


    "It means that once the time is up, the seal will automatically break. The difference is, with the seal gone, this fox will quickly die. Do you know why?"


    He shook the teacup slightly, then took another sip, "Because this fox itself is a product of the fusion between the wolf and fox ns. If I''m not mistaken, she has four elder brothers, right? She was born with an illness, and moreover, from a young age she has been different from other foxes, with dyed development and low intelligence. Most importantly..." Thest two words, "short lifespan," drifted lightly into Pei Chiyao''s ear, causing him to catch his breath suddenly.


    Zhi Yao was also shocked, her eyes widening. At first, she wanted to refute the words "low intelligence," but upon hearing "short lifespan," she waspletely dumbfounded.


    Her, her, her... she will die?!
