Senior brothers, please stop abusing me. I'm going to change my ways to be merciless.

Zhou Haiping said affectionately and sadly: "I am very pleased to see that you have grown up so much and are still so capable."

He took two steps forward, as if to touch Fan Li.

Fan Li instinctively became alert, took a step back, and raised the knife in his hand again.

"do not come!"

Zhou Haiping stood there in a daze, looking at her with a hurt expression.

"Can't I let my uncle hold you?"

Fan Li pursed his lips and said in a cold tone: "You are an evil cultivator. Since ancient times, good and evil cannot coexist."

Zhou Haiping's eyes darkened for a moment.

This damn girl is really hard to fool.

Zhou Haiping sighed and said with heartache, "My uncle also has his own difficulties. In order to avenge you, I had no choice but to practice evil magic. Not only do you not understand, but you also want to use swords against me. My uncle feels very sad."

"If your mother knew about this, she would be sad too."

Fan Li stared at him and said coldly, "I have practiced Taoism. My name is Fan Li."

Fan Li is the name she gave herself.

Zhou Haiping ignored her and continued, "But since we've recognized each other, let's go back with uncle."

Fan Li asked, "Where are we going back to?"

Zhou Haiping said as a matter of course: "Of course I'm going back to my uncle's place."

Fan Li asked, "Aren't you here to kill me?"

Zhou Haiping laughed: "What are you talking about? If I knew who you are, your uncle would be too busy protecting you, how could he want to kill you?"

Zhou Haiping clearly saw the vigilance in Fan Li's eyes, so he did not approach her anymore. Instead, he extended a hand very friendly.

"Come, go home with your uncle."

Fan Li looked at him without saying anything.

At this moment, a fluctuation of spiritual power appeared around Fan Li.

The space is slightly distorted.

Before I saw the person, I heard his voice first.

"Fan Li, don't believe him! You don't have an uncle!"

Fan Li's expression changed slightly, and when she turned around, Mei Nianzhi's tall figure appeared beside her.

Zhou Haiping's smile froze on his face.

Mei Nianzhi stared at him with hatred: "Zhou Dehai, I finally found you!"

Ok?

It turns out that this is Zhou Haiping’s real name.

Fan Li was a little confused.

Mei Nianzhi glanced at Fan Li and explained, "He was originally a eunuch. Somehow, he got lucky enough to be accepted as a disciple by the old Imperial Master. However, he was not honest and liked to delve into evil arts. When the old Imperial Master discovered this, he was severely punished."

"But not only did he not repent, he even killed his own master. He used sweet words to deceive everyone and became the Imperial Master of the Moon Nation, becoming extremely powerful."

Having said that, Mei Nianzhi paused, and the temperature on his face dropped to freezing point.

"King Han trusted and valued him, but he secretly used the luck of the Moon Nation to cultivate, causing the Moon Nation's luck to collapse and lead to its demise!"

"As for the three moles on the soles of his feet, they are the result of a sorcery he used on the Crown Prince of Yue Country. That's why he has three moles. Fan Li, he has no blood relationship with you. He is your enemy with a deep hatred!"

Mei Nianzhi's eyes were cold: "Eunuch Zhou, do you think I'm right?"

Zhou Dehai frowned: "I hate it most when people call me like that."

Zhou Dehai showed Fan Li what it meant to change one's mind as easily as turning the pages of a book.

He smiled happily: "But His Royal Highness is none other than the Crown Prince. I am honored that His Royal Highness is willing to call me that."

"Zhou Dehai, you deserve to die!"

Thinking of the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and the tragic deaths of his parents, Mei Nianzhi's eyes turned red.

Zhou Dehai looked at Fan Li, then at Mei Nianzhi, and said with a sigh, "I didn't expect that Prince Han's children were still alive. It's really surprising. It seems that I should have devoured your two people's luck. Your luck is much more useful than the national destiny. Don't you agree, Your Highness?"

The evil cultivator called Mei Nianzhi "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince". So...Fan Li looked at him in surprise, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

Mei Nianzhi noticed her gaze, pursed his lips slightly, and said, "I'm sorry, I lied to you before..."

Fan Li didn't waste any words and turned to look at Zhou Dehai, "If you have anything to say, wait until you kill this evil cultivator!"

Mei Nianzhi nodded, "You step back, let me do it."

Seeing his sickly appearance, Fan Li refused without hesitation: "No, you step back, I'll do it."

Zhou Dehai wasn't worried about dying at all. He said slowly, "Your Highness, you can't kill me. If you kill me, the curse on you will never be lifted."

Mei Nianzhi clenched his fists.

Fan Li frowned and asked, "What kind of curse did he cast on you?"

Mei Nianzhi's eyes flashed, "Don't listen to his nonsense, kill him!"

Zhou Dehai even arrogantly sat cross-legged on the ground and kindly explained to Fan Li:

"I cast a Soul-Eating Curse on him. This curse will cause him to suffer the pain of reincarnation. In other words, he will experience the pain of his country being destroyed and his family being annihilated countless times, like a nightmare from which he can never wake up."

Fan Li looked at Mei Nianzhi in shock, and when he didn't refute it, he knew it was true.

This evil cultivator before me was truly vicious, actually casting such a terrifying forbidden curse on the master he once served! His heart was worthy of death!

"Don't worry about me, this man is guilty of heinous crimes and must die!" Mei Nianzhi was filled with murderous intent and immediately mobilized his spiritual power.

Unexpectedly, Fan Li was faster than him.

She took a quick step forward and stabbed Zhou Dehai's thigh with a knife. Her movements were so fast that they didn't have time to react.

"Remove the curse from him, or I'll make you suffer a fate worse than death!"

Zhou Dehai hadn't expected Fan Li to be so ruthless. He stared at her in pain, grinning grimly, "I can't do it! Kill me if you dare!"

Zhou Dehai opened his arms and waited to be killed.

He was just certain that they didn't dare to kill him.

The next second, Mei Nianzhi broke his neck.

Zhou Dehai fell to the ground and died with his eyes wide open and his mouth still open.

Fan Li's expression changed: "If you kill him, what will happen to the curse on you?"

Mei Nianzhi saw a black aura coming out from Zhou Dehai and disappear in an instant.

"Don't even think about escaping!"

Before he could answer Fan Li's question, he raised his hand and used his spiritual power to pinch the black energy that was trying to escape.

The true form of the black gas was Zhou Dehai's Nascent Soul. Its facial features were very similar to Zhou Dehai's, but it was wrinkled and curled up into a ball, extremely ugly.

The Yuanying of a normal person is pure, round and soft in color, but Zhou Dehai's Yuanying is blood red, with black filaments and spiral lines on the surface, emitting a foul smell that is disgusting.

The Nascent Soul let out a sharp cry, which sounded like a scream and was very piercing.

Mei Nianzhi's eyes were filled with hatred, and he completely crushed Zhou Dehai's Nascent Soul.

The screams stopped abruptly. Zhou Dehai was completely dead now.

Fan Li also saw through Mei Nianzhi's cultivation.

The middle stage of Nascent Soul.

Amazing!

"Okay, it's all over." Mei Nianzhi lowered his bloody hands. Although his revenge was achieved, he did not look very happy.

Fan Li's face was filled with worry: "Brother."

When Mei Nianzhi turned to look at her, the fatigue and hatred on his face had disappeared, leaving only a gentle smile.

He hugged Fan Li, placed his clean hand on the back of her head, and whispered:

"Don't worry, there is a solution to the Soul Devouring Curse. As long as you can ascend, it will automatically be lifted."

"You really didn't lie to me this time?"

Fan Li's expression was serious and a little unhappy.

Mei Nianzhi said gently, "You are my blood relative. If you ascend and leave this world, you will no longer exist in the cycle of reincarnation, and the Soul Devouring Curse will naturally be ineffective."

Hearing this, Fan Li said solemnly, "Okay, I will definitely ascend and remove the curse from you."

Mei Nianzhi changed the subject: "However, I don't have much time left."

Fan Li was slightly stunned: "What do you mean?"

Mei Nianzhi smiled bitterly. "The Soul-Eating Curse will consume my lifespan. I should have died four years ago. However, I am very lucky. With the Phoenix Grass you gave me, my lifespan has increased by another thirteen years."

Fan Li understood: "You mean I have to ascend while you are still alive, so that the soul-devouring curse can be lifted, right?"

Mei Nianzhi nodded: "That's right. So you still have nine years."

Less than nine years, to be exact.

Fan Li: “…” Otherwise she could just go to heaven.

She had just cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage, and was still three small realms and one large realm away from ascension.

Even the most powerful Qinglan Zhenren today practiced for hundreds of years before reaching the peak of the Divine Transformation Realm.

And for her, wanting to advance from the early stage of Nascent Soul to the peak of Spirit Transformation and then ascend to heaven in just a few years is not as difficult as climbing to heaven, but a foolish dream.

Mei Nianzhi knew that this was something impossible to do, so he was just talking about it and didn't force it.

He looked at Fan Li's solemn expression, smiled, touched her head, and comforted her: "It's okay, I'm already very satisfied to have found you."

Mei Nianzhi was speaking the truth. He had only done two things: one was to find the whereabouts of his sister, and the other was to kill Zhou Dehai.

After completing these two things, he no longer cared whether the Soul-Eating Curse was lifted or not.

Fan Li suddenly grabbed the hand that was causing trouble above his head, his eyes brightening surprisingly, "I know what to do."

Mei Nianzhi: "Hmm?"

Fan Li smiled brightly, his face full of confidence: "Wait for my good news, I will definitely break that damn soul-devouring curse."
