"Hmph! What do you mean 'female'? You want to say I'm a female, don't you!" the woman said in a cold voice.

Upon hearing this, Han Li gave a wry smile and didn't respond. Only after retracting the flying sword that was circling above his head did he say slowly:

"Regardless of whether you are male or female, you should tell me your origin."

"Origin? Am I not the artifact spirit of the ancient treasure in your hand!" The white fox half-crouched down, looking at Han Li with a calm expression in its eyes.

"I naturally know you are an artifact spirit. But I have never heard of an artifact spirit being able to perform possession." Han Li frowned, his voice turning cold.

"That just shows your ignorance. Am I not an example?" The white fox seemed to curl its lip, saying indifferently.

Han Li fell silent after hearing this.

But a moment later, he suddenly raised the jade Jade Ruyi in his hand and lifted his head to examine it closely.

"What are you doing?" A look of vigilance shot out from the white fox's eyes as it looked at Han Li and asked coldly.

"Nothing. Han Mou is just very curious. Since you have already successfully possessed this demon fox body, this jade Jade Ruyi is mostly useless. But if I were to smash it, I wonder what would happen?" Han Li sighed and said calmly.

Upon hearing this, the white fox's expression changed drastically, and it stared at Han Li with a fierce gaze. But after staring for only a moment, it seemed to remember something, and its imposing manner suddenly vanished.

"You don't need to test me. Indeed, if you destroy this jade Jade Ruyi, my artifact spirit body will naturally vanish into smoke along with it. After all, as an artifact spirit, I have already become one with this Jade Ruyi," the white fox said indifferently.

Then, a flash of silver light appeared on its body, and a massive aura descended upon the white fox.

Han Li's heart tightened, and a look of vigilance appeared on his face.

"Don't worry. It's just inconvenient for me to talk to you in this beast body. I am just transforming into a human form now," the white fox said after coldly glancing at Han Li.

After Han Li heard this, he was startled for a moment, then felt slightly relieved.

At this moment, the white fox's body emitted a dazzling silver glow, and Han Li subconsciously took two steps back.

He saw the white fox flip over within the silver glow and rapidly transform into the alluring form of a naked young woman. Once she stood up, Han Li discovered that except for the green light in her eyes disappearing and turning into clear black pupils, the woman's face was still exactly the same as before the possession.

It seems that once a demon beast's human form is set, it cannot be changed.

While Han Li was secretly pondering, the young woman subconsciously covered her vital parts with both hands. After hesitating for a moment, she said with some hesitation:

"Does Daoist friend have any clothes? I am not quite used to being like this." After saying this, a trace of shyness appeared on the woman's beautiful face.

Han Li was slightly startled.

Afterwards, without a word, he took out a spare set of clothes from his storage bag and threw them to her.

"Many thanks, Daoist friend!"

The young woman thanked him in a low voice, raised her jade hand, and gently draped the man's clothes over her body, instantly covering most of the spring scenery of her naked, delicate body.

Seeing this, Han Li's expression stirred. Every movement of this woman was filled with an indescribable elegance, even more refined and gentle than an ordinary young lady from a noble family. It was truly hard to believe that she was actually a silver wolf demon before her death.

After the young woman calmly put on the clothes, she lifted her face and said slowly to Han Li:

"You can call me Lady Yin Yue. As for my origin, it is not that I am unwilling to tell you, but that I cannot remember it clearly myself. You must know that once our demon spirit is refined into an artifact spirit, we should lose all consciousness and only be able to obey the master of the vessel. But I don't know why, ever since the day I gained consciousness, I have vaguely remembered a part of my life before death. Although it is very little, it is enough for me to have a part of my own autonomy. I vaguely remember that I belong to the Silver Moon Wolf Clan. The name Lady Yin Yue was also taken for myself because of this. As for what I was called before, I cannot remember." Following her voice, the young woman walked a few steps with a light gait, as if she were slowly adapting to this new body.

"Silver Moon Wolf Clan? I haven't seen any classics mention this kind of demon beast," Han Li said, touching his chin with a flash of doubt.

"This is just a fragmented memory. Perhaps I remembered it wrong," Lady Yin Yue said gloomily, her beautiful eyebrows furrowed.

Hearing this, Han Li was speechless.

"Fine, even if Miss Lady Yin Yue doesn't remember her origin, how is it that an artifact spirit can perform possession? Don't tell me that all artifact spirits have this ability, otherwise the cultivation world would have been in chaos long ago," Han Li pondered for a moment and asked solemnly.

"Do you think I can possess just any body?" the young woman asked back with a cold sneer.

"What does that mean?" Han Li narrowed his eyes and stared at the woman, asking.

"The technique I just used, strictly speaking, is not really possession, but the innate ability of our Silver Moon Clan: Soul Devouring. It uses one's own primordial spirit to leave the body and directly attack another's primordial spirit and soul. Of course, after the opponent's soul is devoured or forcibly driven out of the body, our Silver Moon Clan can temporarily reside in the new body. It's just that the time cannot be too long, otherwise the primordial spirit will be assimilated by the body and will never be able to escape again. Moreover, this ability is a double-edged sword. The spiritual sense of our Silver Moon Wolf Clan is not innately stronger than other demon clans. If we happen to encounter an opponent with an especially strong primordial spirit, we would lose our own lives. Therefore, we don't dare to use it easily. But for me, who has no body, it seems it doesn't matter," Lady Yin Yue said, her cherry lips slightly parted, uttering words that startled Han Li.

Seeing Han Li's expression change drastically as he opened his mouth to ask something, she seemed to guess what Han Li was going to say and immediately spoke first:

"Don't ask me about the details of Soul Devouring. I don't know how it works either; it seems I was born knowing how to use it. But you don't need to worry, this kind of Soul Devouring has many harsh restrictions and cannot be used at will. And I am not the original Lady Yin Yue body. Using this innate ability in the form of an artifact spirit is almost impossible. If I hadn't happened to encounter this Four-Eyed Spirit Fox here, I wouldn't have been able to possess it either. Otherwise, why would I have stayed in the jade Jade Ruyi all along? Because in my memory, this Four-Eyed Spirit Fox seems to be innately countered by our Silver Moon Wolf Clan. Plus, this demon fox body had actually already been possessed by the split soul of that Corpse Sha, so it wasn't the original owner of the body. That's why I was able to successfully snatch it by luck," Lady Yin Yue said calmly.

"Four-Eyed Spirit Fox! Isn't this a Snow Cloud Fox?" Han Li looked closely at the pupils in the other's beautiful eyes and didn't see anything strange, so he couldn't help but ask in confusion.

"The Four-Eyed Spirit Fox refers to the situation after this demon fox's cultivation is complete. The demon eye talent it possesses is, in a sense, even more terrifying than our Silver Moon Wolf Clan's Soul Devouring. It can almost destroy an enemy invisibly with a smile. However, from the outside, it does indeed look similar to an ordinary Snow Cloud Fox. It's a pity that as soon as it used its technique, it was immediately recognized by my incarnation," Lady Yin Yue smiled slightly, revealing a hint of alluring charm.

"The demon fox's cultivation had just reached the level of a Level 7 demon beast, so how can it not be considered complete? And since its cultivation hasn't broken through to the Level 8 transformation stage, why can it transform into a human form early? And just now, you were the same as the demon fox before it was possessed; how could your cultivation be high and low? Don't tell me that you can also hide your cultivation like the demon fox so that I cannot detect it," Han Li pursed his lips and asked the question that puzzled him the most.

"Hehe! Daoist friend really has many questions. However, I don't know how many years it has been since I last talked to others, so it doesn't matter. As for why that demon fox transformed early, I really don't know. I guess it should be that the Corpse Sha saw the situation was not good and used some technique to forcibly graft a portion of its own cultivation onto this demon fox incarnation. That's why the cultivation before and after was so different. The true cultivation of this Four-Eyed Demon Fox itself is still just a low-tier demon beast. And because of the restrictions, even if this demon fox had cultivation grafted onto it, it still couldn't leave the Corpse Sha's main body too far. And my human transformation now also uses a similar secret technique, which can temporarily raise my cultivation to the level of a Level 7 or even Level 8 demon beast. But after a while, this cultivation will slowly dissipate, and I will return to my beast body again. The next time I transform into a human body again, it will be at least a month later," the young woman explained, making Han Li suddenly realize.

Afterwards, Han Li didn't ask anything else, but lowered his head to ponder the words just now.

After a long while, he said calmly:

"Although these words didn't answer all my doubts, they at least let Han Mou know most of the reasons. Next, I want to ask Daoist friend Lady Yin Yue one more thing. Now that you have a body, what do you plan to do next?"

Hearing this thought-provoking question from Han Li, Lady Yin Yue's face revealed a smile that was not quite a smile.

"If I say I want to leave Daoist friend Han and cultivate on my own, will you plan to kill me?" Lady Yin Yue asked with a smile.
