The protagonist committed numerous evil deeds.

Chapter 89 Past Life Chapter 16 Haven't things just begun to get on track?

Dark clouds suddenly drifted into the once clear sky over the capital, followed by thunder and strong winds that even knocked some people down.

Strangely, the puppets in their hands suddenly began to burn.

"How did it suddenly catch fire!"

"Look, the puppet spontaneously combusted!"

Before Xie Wanning could react to the burning puppet in her hand, Shen Yi slapped it away, and her heart skipped a beat.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, please return to the palace first. Look at the sky, it's about to rain."

The crowd became chaotic, and soon large raindrops began to fall.

Xie Wanning looked at the snow-covered landscape before her. It was clearly a snowy day, so why was it raining?

"Ning'er, let's go back quickly."

"No! No! Shen Yi, this is wrong!"

Before Xie Wanning could finish speaking, she suddenly fell backward.

Shen Yi helped her up and said, "Get some sleep. Things have only just gotten back on track."

His voice lacked its usual gentleness and ingratiation; instead, it was icy cold.

Xie Wanning's palace maids stared wide-eyed, and just as they were about to step forward, a dagger was pressed against their backs.

Only then did they realize that the guards and palace maids who accompanied the emperor and empress on their trip today were completely unfamiliar to them.

Shen Yi handed the person to the palace maid behind him: "Take the Empress back to the palace. She is not to be released without my permission."

Watching Xie Wanning being led away, Shen Yi looked at the burning puppet on the ground, feeling very pleased.

"Your Majesty, this curse array must have been completed."

"That's good."

Shen Yi suddenly drew the guard's sword and examined it closely. At that moment, he heard the chirping of a canary.

A canary with beautiful golden feathers chirped merrily in its exquisite birdcage.

That was Shen Yi's beloved bird, which he always kept close at hand. Shen Yi stepped forward with great interest to stroke it, then opened the birdcage and watched the little bird fly into the sky.

But the next second, with a swing of the longsword, the bird fell to the ground. The beautiful canary lay bleeding on the ground.

"What I hate most is this beautiful caged bird."

With the sealing of Guigu Valley lifted, all the demons and monsters in the world escaped, plunging the land into chaos and sparking a great war between humans and demons.

However, this battle between transgender people only lasted for two months.

Prince Shen Yannan of Jin went to Guigu alone to negotiate with the demon leader Jiuying to cede the two places of Manzhou and Danli, and the human world was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.

A month after the great battle, the Xie family incurred the wrath of the people by lifting the seal on Guigu Valley. The emperor ordered the execution of the entire Xie family, and Empress Xie Wanning committed suicide out of shame. Meanwhile, Crown Prince Shen Yingsi had transformed into a demon and publicly murdered people. The emperor, with heavy heart, upheld justice and deposed him, demoting him to a commoner and appointing the eldest prince, Shen Yannan, as the new crown prince.

The human world has also suffered severe damage in these two months. The disparity in strength between humans and demons is too great; in just a month or two, almost everyone has lost a relative to a demon.

Therefore, the Xie family, who were the culprits behind this disaster, became the target of everyone's condemnation.

And their revered prince will also be dragged into hell by them.

Notices announcing the execution of the Xie family had been posted in government offices across the country. Although there were not many members left in the Xie family at this time, anyone still alive and even remotely related to the family was sent to the capital for execution.

The Xie family's ancestral home in Beijing had long been smashed to pieces.

"You promised to kill all the demons in the world! Shen Yingsi, where are you hiding! And your Xie family, how dare you use the power of the Flower Rain to unseal Ghost Valley! Countless people in this world have died at your hands!"

"What does this have to do with the Xie family? It's clearly Xie Wansheng's fault!"

"Xie Wansheng is the head of the Xie family. If it weren't for him, could the Ghost Valley seal have been broken? Xie Wansheng is a fool. The Xie family is courting destruction by making him the head of the family!"

"Your Highness, where are you? Please save us! Danli cannot be given to demons!"

"Shen Yingsi has now become a monster and is imprisoned in the Ghost Valley dungeon!"

"Your Highness is not a monster! Your Highness perished together with the Ghost King back in Half Moon City! This one is a monster in disguise, and now it's showing its true form!"

……

The public was engaged in heated discussions about the Xie family and the crown prince, with a wide range of opinions.

But Shen Yingsi, who was imprisoned in the dungeon, knew nothing of all this.

At the Xie Mansion in Guigu, Shen Yannan was writing and drawing on a large map of the world.

"Have you confirmed that the blood of all the common people without the talent for cultivation in Danli showed no reaction to the Flower Rain?"

"My subordinates have already checked three times, and it's absolutely impossible."

"Then we will continue our search towards the South China Sea."

"Yes."

Yun Hao had just turned around when he remembered something and bowed to Shen Yannan again: "My lord, the one in the dungeon has woken up again."

Shen Yannan raised an eyebrow and put down his pen: "He's awake. What's his condition now?"

Yun Hao's lips curled up: "That monster didn't die. He keeps clamoring to go out. He's probably thinking about going out to protect his people."

"Protecting all living beings! Hahahaha! How could Shen Yingsi be so stupid! With so much praise, he's really starting to think he's a god!"

Yun Hao laughed along, but the next second he was kicked to the ground by Shen Yannan.

"He's not a god! Then why did he wake up? How could he survive dealing with a cripple, especially one who was unconscious?!"

Yun Hao immediately knelt down: "Your subordinate is incompetent! But his wrist is still bleeding."

Shen Yannan clenched his fist: "Qingyun Spear is still being suppressed by Jiuying. He is already a cripple, but I will never feel at ease if he doesn't die."

Yun Hao knelt on the ground, even his breathing was careful, until he heard Shen Yannan's pleasant voice in his ear.

"Never mind him for now. The demonic poison in his body torments him every day, and he's already suffering enough. He'll have his turn to suffer when Father arrives in a few days. By the way, how's things in the capital?"

"News has come from the capital that His Majesty is on his way south and should arrive in Danli soon. The Xie family is also there..."

"Who wants to hear this!"

Shen Yannan's voice was filled with anger, which Yun Hao immediately noticed: "Miss Wen seems unhappy, and the people who are keeping watch in the capital say that Miss Wen has been missing for the past few days."

Hearing her displeasure, Shen Yannan sighed helplessly: "You've come to confront me, but it's good that you're here."

*

A few days later.

The Danli Dungeon was a place specifically for imprisoning demons, but now that Danli is about to become demon territory, there is only one demon imprisoned in the dungeon.

Inside the cold, dark dungeon, it was so quiet you could hear the dripping of water.

The pool of blood gradually extended outwards, with drops of blood constantly creating ripples on its surface.

Shen Yingsi's hands were bound with iron chains, and he closed his eyes and remained motionless.

It was just two iron chains, with no magic applied to them, yet these two chains rendered him unable to move.

Shen Yingsi felt empty inside. He couldn't sense any spiritual power, but he could feel that even the strength of mortals who couldn't cultivate was so weak.

Footsteps suddenly echoed in the empty dungeon. Shen Yingsi opened his eyes to look, then lowered his head and closed them again.

"Doesn't the younger brother greet his older brother?"
