Chapter 91 The Fruit of Time

Just as Xie Fei stepped into the boundary of the underworld, the hand twisting the jade ring suddenly paused, and his eyes immediately looked to the front right. At that moment, he felt a familiar feeling in his heart. Although it was only for a moment, he was very sure that it was the soul he had been looking for.

Has it been in the underworld all along?

Xie Fei paused for a moment, then walked slowly towards that direction. His movements seemed very slow, but in the blink of an eye he was already a hundred feet away.

A few breaths later, he had arrived at the Netherworld Bridge. He looked around carefully and found that everything was normal. The dense red spider lilies were still so enchanting and bright, and the faint smell of blood in the air made them even more weird. The lanterns hanging on the Soul Pawn Shop not far away slowly lit up. Under the guidance of the faint red light, a winding path quietly extended from the red spider lilies to the end of the Netherworld Bridge, just like before, happily welcoming its owner home.

Xie Fei slowly stepped onto the Netherworld Bridge. When he reached the middle of the bridge, he turned his head and glanced at the Yellow Spring Water under the bridge. The water was muddy and flowed quietly, without any abnormality.

He just glanced at her indifferently, and returned to normal in the next moment. In the next moment, he had walked to the door of the cave, gently pushed it open and walked in.

On the beauty couch, Xie Fei sat cross-legged casually. On the table beside him were a lot of files. He was flipping through them without blinking, trying to find some information about the soul.

I've watched half of it now, but found nothing.

At this moment, the Ox-Head and Horse-Faced Demons came over, carrying a woman in her thirties with tattered clothes and blood all over her body. As they moved, blood could be seen oozing out of the holes in her clothes from the wounds caused by a sharp knife, and there were obvious purple marks on her exposed wrists and ankles.

Although she was an extremely thin woman, Xie Fei could vaguely sense the abnormal anger and pain beneath her calm appearance. He guessed that if she had not been silenced by the Ox-Head and Horse-Faced Monster, she might be screaming hysterically at this moment.

"What's going on?" Xie Fei turned around, calmly continued to look through the files in his hand, and asked slowly.

"Your Excellency." The Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Demon bowed and then explained, "Your Excellency, this soul has been making a lot of noise since it came to the underworld. The other souls were annoyed by the noise and couldn't help but say a few words. She then rushed over and started fighting with the other souls, making all the souls restless. I have no choice but to come and ask for your advice."

"Oh?" Xie Fei didn't turn around to look at him. He just smiled inexplicably and said faintly, "Didn't you seal her mouth?"

The two men immediately knelt on the ground and said with some shame: "I am ashamed. This soul is too obsessed. We can only seal her temporarily. After a while, she will be able to move freely again."

Hearing this, Xie Fei immediately became interested. At this moment, the woman who had been like a puppet since she came in suddenly raised her head. The soul rope on her body could be seen to have some cracks, and the sealing formula was about to dissipate.

Xie Fei looked at her. The woman's face was covered with uneven purple whip marks and scabbed knife wounds. Her eyes were closed tightly, and there were two deep red bloodstains under her eyelids. The next moment, she slowly opened her eyes, and her red eye sockets were dark.

He was stunned for a moment. He never thought that her eyes had been dug out by someone.

The woman paused for a moment, then suddenly twisted her neck as if she had come to her senses. The next moment, she immediately tried like crazy to break free from the soul rope that bound her. She clenched her fists, her face flushed, veins popped out on her forehead, and she screamed frantically, "Let me go! Let me go, you scumbag! I'm going to kill you! I'm going to kill you!!"

Her madness exacerbated the cracks in the soul rope. Seeing this, Xie Fei became more interested in this woman. He waved his sleeves, and a cup of herbal tea appeared out of thin air in front of Niutou. Niutou was stunned, and then a faint voice came: "Feed her."

Soon after the woman drank the cold tea, a chill ran through her veins and moved around her body. After a while, she stood there in a daze as if she had been given a sedative. She looked at Xie Fei expressionlessly and said, "I'm going to kill that scumbag! I'm going to kill him! Otherwise, I'll never close my eyes and never give up!"

"I can fulfill your wish." Xie Fei calmly picked up the teacup and took a sip, then said slowly, "But do you know what price you need to pay?"

"No matter what it is, I'm willing to do it as long as I can kill that scumbag. My life has been ruined by him anyway and I have nothing left." The woman's face was as cold as ice and her voice was stern.

Xie Fei smiled gently and said slowly: "It's the soul."

The woman frowned slightly and was stunned.

"Life is a cycle, during which everyone will experience all kinds of love, hate, separation and parting. You really don't have to ruin your next life for the sake of this one..." Xie Fei said slowly, pausing for each word.

However, the woman interrupted him the next moment: "No, reincarnation, this life and the next life, these are all unfamiliar to me. After drinking Meng Po soup and entering the reincarnation, I don't remember anything. So how can I know whether every life of mine will be painful?"

Moreover, after experiencing such despair and pain, how could she be willing to let that scum go? In such a long wait and darkness, she suffered endless imprisonment, torture and rape. She would never forget the endless torment of her spirit and body.

Because of him, her life was ruined, completely ruined, and even the most beautiful memories in her memory, which she had solemnly treasured in the most secret corner of her heart, became fragmented. From that moment on, she swore that she would never close her eyes until she had avenged this!

In silence, a few drops of blood and tears flowed from her dark eyes. After a moment, she slowly raised her head and faced Xie Fei, her fingertips clenched into her palms, and the veins on the back of her pale hands bulged. She said firmly and decisively: "It doesn't matter even if the price is my soul. I just want to kill that scum and make him suffer a thousand times the pain I have suffered!"

Xie Fei closed his eyes and sighed silently. He was actually very reluctant to accept the deal from this woman. From the first time he saw her, he roughly judged that the woman had been imprisoned for more than ten years. He just didn't know what stimulated her to trigger all the resentment in her heart. Now she has become crazy. She must have a serious mental illness. He was afraid that something would go wrong and affect that soul...

It's just a business, there's no reason to reject others. Besides, if I really reject her deal, given her resentment and obsession, I really don't know what the impact will be.

Forget it, let's take it one step at a time. If there really is a problem, we'll figure out how to solve it then.

"Okay, I promise you." Xie Fei waved his hand gently, and a burst of spiritual energy swept the woman to sit on a stool beside him. "Tell me about you."

"My name is Ye Jing..." the woman said slowly.

…

Gao Jing's family was originally an ordinary and happy family of four in City B. Her father made a living by driving a truck, her mother was a stay-at-home mom, and she was seven years old and had a younger brother who was less than two years old. Although the family was not rich, the economy was still pretty good. However, the good times did not last long. Gao's father once took the night shift for a colleague in order to double the salary. He had been driving all day and was already a little tired. The highway was quiet and dark at night. After yawning again, he was afraid that he would really fall asleep accidentally, so he took out the Fengyoujing from his bag. The moment he opened the lid, another truck driving at high speed behind him suddenly malfunctioned and crashed into him...

Gao's father died on the spot, and the driver had long since fled and disappeared. Gao's mother was a weak little woman. She was timid even when she went to Gao's father's company to ask for an explanation. It was with the help of Gao's father's family that she got back a sum of compensation. How could Gao's parents, who had lost their son, hand over the money? After snatching away his younger brother, they even asked Gao's mother to take her, a burden, out of the house within a month.

Gao's mother had been living a life of luxury for nearly eight years. Apart from doing housework, she had no other ability to support herself and her daughter, so she had to look for a nanny job everywhere.

But she not only wanted free food and accommodation, but also brought a daughter with her. No one was willing to hire her. Just when she was about to despair, a man named Ye Shimian appeared.

Ye Shimian's parents died early, and he lived with his grandparents in his early years. He had a hard life, but he was smart. He dropped out of school in his second year of high school and went out to work. After struggling in society, he achieved his current success.

When he was less than 30 years old, he owned one of the top ten department stores in City B and became a well-known bachelor.

Ye Shimian is gentle and has a gentle temperament. He is very good to Gao's mother and Gao Jing. Gradually, Gao's mother came out of the pain of losing her husband. For the sake of this stable and comfortable life, she took care of Ye Shimian wholeheartedly. Over time, she began to gradually lose herself in Ye Shimian's tenderness.

About two years later, Ye Shimian and Gao's mother got married. Gao's mother quickly adapted to married life and became the gentle and considerate woman she used to be. Gao Jing also became Ye Shimian's daughter and changed her name to Ye Jing from then on.

After marriage, Ye Shimian treated Gao's mother and Ye Jing better and better. Not only did he decorate a princess room for Gao Jing, he also prepared many dolls and toys. Ye Shimian even bought her all kinds of beautiful clothes, shoes and jewelry from time to time. He was so nice to her that people who didn't know the truth thought she was his biological daughter.

Eight years passed in the blink of an eye. Ye Jing was seventeen years old. At the beginning of the school year, she would be a senior high school student. During these eight years, her father Ye's meticulous care and concern for her and her mother made her accept this stepfather from the bottom of her heart. She loved and respected Ye Shimian as if he were her own father. In front of him, she was no different from other children. She could act coquettishly, get angry with him, and do whatever she wanted with him just like she did with her father.

However, she didn't know that misfortune was about to happen quietly after school started, and the next ten years or so became a nightmare she would never forget.

The author has something to say: ??Xie Fei (touching his chin): Imprisonment play seems to be pretty good~ Or, S/M is also good?

Ye Jing: Don’t even think about it!

(ps: I am in a hurry today. I will take a bus to another city for a meeting tomorrow. I have plenty of time. I will present the 3,000 words I took leave for yesterday tomorrow~~)
