My Evil Wife Is a Nine-Tailed Fox

However, it had never been an issue for the fox woman before. Although it was faster to get stronger by consuming another demon\'s orb, feeding on the negative energy humans naturally emit was more accessible and easier to accumulate. 

The more intense the hatred was, the more energy a demon like her could consume. It was for this reason that many demons chose to mingle with the humans, instigating them to do something to hate one another. 

However, being fed on by a demon had some detrimental effects on a human. Not only would they succumb to the hatred they\'d been culminating for some time, but the demon would also intensify such emotions to squeeze out more energy from them. 

Because of it, many humans fell sick after making such an outburst and succumbed to death without knowing what hit them.

Shen Minyao fed on Liang Sisi without the latter noticing it. For the first time since she had woken up, the fox woman had encountered a human who held enough grudges for her to feed on. 

"She was so hateful!" Liang Sisi continued, "If it wasn\'t for her… If she hadn\'t been so arrogant, none of these would happen. So why was it that it was my fault now?" 

Right now, Shen Minyao could already see that this human had already lost not only her conscience but also her rational mind. Liang Sisi was blinded by so much hatred and jealousy that she didn\'t feel any remorse for what she did to her best friend. 

Liang Sisi continued to break down in front of the fox woman. She fell to her knees and clutched her head as she continued to mumble how Bai Xinran ruined everything for her. 

\'Pathetic,\' Shen Minyao thought as she stared down at the human that was still in denial. 

While Bai Xinran truly cared about Liang Sisi, the latter was only aware of the shortcomings and mistakes of her best friend. How could she even claim that she was Bai Xinran\'s best friend when all she had for the girl was envy and jealousy? She was jealous of the things Bai Xinran had and hated her for being sympathetic and pitying her for being poor. 

"It\'s not my fault…" Liang Sisi kept on repeating like a mantra. She extended a hand towards the fox woman, but the cut of Shen Minyao\'s eyes was almost so visceral she had no choice but to bring the offending hand away.

A passing breeze rustled the fox woman\'s hair and clothing. Shen Minyao was looking down at the pathetic human who still refused to admit her wrongdoings. To Liang Sisi, everything was Bai Xinran\'s fault—never hers. 

Shen Minyao pressed the button to stop recording. She then bent down on her knees and harshly pulled Liang Sisi\'s face towards her. 

"Your hands are tainted with her blood, and yet your mouth kept spouting nonsense? Who are you trying to convince here? Me or yourself?" She questioned the trembling woman. 

"Weren\'t you planning to kill me, too?" 

Her next question caught Liang Sisi off-guard. She had totally forgotten the purpose of this meeting with Shen Minyao. She was stunned into silence. 

"Then, is it going to be my fault, too, if I die tonight?" Shen Minyao asked, and the sudden change of color of her eyes terrified Liang Sisi. 

Her initial plans were thrown in the wind as she realized how dangerous Shen Minyao was. She couldn\'t possibly be just a human like her! No human would be able to change their eye color that easily. In contrast to their original brown color, Liang Sisi was now staring straight at the bright golden eyes of the fox demon. 

"You… what are you?" She tried to pull back away from Shen Minyao, but she realized that her legs wouldn\'t budge at all. 

Her tears reamed on her eyes as she stared wide-eyed at the fox woman. Just who was this person? 

"My, my. You\'ve already forgotten my name? Don\'t worry, Schoolmate Liang. I\'m still the Shen Minyao you know." Shen Minyao chuckled darkly next to Liang Sisi\'s ear. 

Now that Shen Minyao had consumed a decent amount of negative energy from her, it was enough for her mental state to deteriorate on its own. If Liang Sisi wouldn\'t kill herself willingly, meeting a demon should be enough to drive her to insanity. 

"You… get away from me! Get away from me!"

By this time, Liang Sisi was panicking already. She was able to take away her chin from Shen Minyao\'s hold, but she couldn\'t muster enough courage to get away completely. 

The fox woman\'s eyes glowed in the darkness, which only made Liang Sisi fear for her life. This wasn\'t what she had in mind when she decided to meet Shen Minyao. How did it end up this way?! 

"Hey, now. Weren\'t you planning to kill me like what you did to Bai Xinran? Are you chickening out?" Shen Minyao mocked her. 

"No, no, that\'s not true!" Liang Sisi denied the fox woman\'s accusation, but Shen Minyao knew better. 

There was no way the scent she smelled earlier was a figment of her imagination. It\'s impossible for Liang Sisi to deny her wicked plan when she reeked of murderous intent as she sought Shen Minyao earlier. 

"Really? So you weren\'t planning to push me on the edge to make it look like I also committed suicide?" 

Liang Sisi trembled and continued to shake her head. She had already lost her composure as she looked shabby with her unkempt appearance. Her mental stability had truly been shaken by the demoness in front of her. 

"No, no, that\'s not true. I didn\'t kill anyone. I wasn\'t planning to kill anyone," she cried hysterically and forced herself to stand up. Once she was back on her feet, she stumbled yet again as saw Shen Minyao\'s fang protruding from her lips. 

Her scream resounded through the area as she ran for life away from the fox demon.
