Zhong Yi understood what he meant. He quickly walked to Zhang Lan and was about to drag him out.

However, Old Madam Zhong suddenly regained her consciousness. “X-xiao Han, my grandson…”

“Grandma!” Zhong Yihan was overjoyed and quickly rushed over.

However, her body suddenly began to twitch, as if she was having epilepsy.

“Why is this happening?” Zhong Yihan’s face darkened as he asked.

Zhang Lan was confused. Jin Xi didn’t say that this was going to happen!

In the living room, Jin Xi was standing there with her hands clasped together, her fingers quickly moving rapidly. Then, she threw the Soul Pearl into the air. In an instant, it shot out a dazzling light, as if there was a bright moon in the Zhong family’s mansion.

As time passed, a tornado suddenly appeared in Old Madam Zhong’s room. The lighter things in the room were all blown away, and the dust was flying everywhere. Everyone was blinded and closed their eyes.

“Meow…” A cat’s meow was heard in the room.

Zhong Yihan squinted his eyes and saw a cloud of white smoke coming out of Old Madam Zhong’s body, but it quickly disappeared without a trace.

“Eh? The wind has stopped.” Zhong Yi said in surprise.

Everyone opened their eyes.

Zhong Yihan looked down at the old lady on the bed. Her gray and dry skin was recovering its color, and her complexion was much better. A few minutes later, although she was still unconscious, she had returned to how she looked before she fell sick.

“I’ve driven away the cat demon. The old lady is fine for now, but she has been eroded by the demonic presence. She still needs to take some medicine to recuperate. This is the prescription. She will only fully recover after 49 days.”

With that, Zhang Lan took out a prescription. The handwriting on the prescription was messy.

Zhong Yihan took the prescription and looked at it carefully. He felt that the fragrance on the prescription was somewhat familiar, as if he had smelled it somewhere before. Could it be that it was…

He seemed to have figured something out, and his originally cold face revealed a smile. What an interesting little girl!

In the backyard of the Zhong family’s house, a big, snow-white cat with eight tails was looking at the girl in front of it with hatred.

The girl had delicate facial features and was wearing a school uniform. She was casually kicking the small stones under her feet, looking quiet and demure.

However, the eight-tailed cat knew that this was the girl’s disguise. Her strength was not to be underestimated. Just now, she only used one move to force it out of Old Madam Zhong’s body.

“Don’t meddle in other people’s business, or I won’t let you off!” The eight-tailed cat had cultivated for a thousand years and had learned the human language long ago. However, its pronunciation was not quite accurate, and it sounded more like a dialect.

“What if I have to interfere?” Jin Xi raised her eyes and narrowed them. She sounded arrogant.

The eight-tailed cat was furious, and its eight tails wagged rapidly in the air, “then I’ll have to deal with you!”

If it were someone else, they might have been afraid, but Jin Xi was not afraid at all. Even if it had a thousand years of cultivation, she still did not take it seriously.

“B*tch!” The eight-tailed cat was completely enraged. Its eight furry tails behind it suddenly stabbed towards Jin Xi like sharp swords.

Jin Xi’s expression was normal, and she even yawned. “That’s all you got?” With that, a cold light appeared in her eyes, and an invisible ball of Qi quickly condensed in her palm.

Whoosh! Just as the tails were about to reach her, the ball of Qi flew out.

“Meow…!”

Its tails were now all broken, and the cat’s blood was all over the ground, giving off an extremely foul smell.

“You…broke my tails!” The cat’s green eyes turned red as if it had gone mad.

It was not easy to cultivate, especially for animals. If it obtained nine tails, it would become immortal. In the past thousand years, it must have gone through all kinds of hardships. But now…

“You disturbed the peace between humans and demons. You absorbed the blood essence of humans for cultivation, so it’s only natural for me to cut off your eight tails!” Jin Xi’s eyes were sharp.

“Go to hell!” The cat let out an angry roar. Its entire body transformed into a cloud of white mist as it quickly charged toward Jin Xi.

“You’re overestimating yourself!” Jin Xi coldly snorted, her fingers pressing on the red spider lily on her arm.

Suddenly, the red spider lily glowed red, and some kind of power seemed to be transmitted to Jin Xi’s hand. “Go!” She flicked her finger lightly, and a drop of blood flew out from her fingertip and fell into the white mist.

“Meow!” A sharp meow was heard, and the white mist was instantly surrounded by fire and turned into ashes.

A gust of wind blew past, and everything disappeared, as if it had never existed.
