It was a woman, who looked like she was dead, with a pale face, messy black hair, and only a white middle-length dress on her body. A layer of black resentment enveloped her.

But it can still be seen that this is a woman with outstanding appearance.

She was holding the child with a big head and a small body in her arms. The way she looked at the child touched Shen Yizhizi a little.

That was the look of a mother looking at her beloved child.

But this still cannot hide the fact that she is a fierce ghost.

The boiling resentment around her almost drowned her.

Yi Chang's voice became more serious: "It's obvious that the child is the evil spirit's Achilles' heel, and you just hurt it. Now that she has been born, she is full of resentment, and now she is directing all her resentment towards you. You have to be careful."

"Yeah." Shen Yizhi clenched the Soul-Devouring Cone.

Sure enough, the evil ghost's ten fingers suddenly grew longer and rushed towards her with a scream.

At this time, Shen Yizhi calmed down and twisted his body to avoid her attack.

Unexpectedly, the child also joined the battle, helping her evil ghost mother to deal with her, and quietly attacked her from behind.

Shen Yizi pretended not to know, but when she got close, he turned around and poked her with the Soul-Devouring Cone.

The evil ghost was horrified and rushed over without thinking to help the child block the attack.

The soul-devouring cone pierced into her body, and that piece of ice melted away like ice and snow meeting the scorching sun.

The evil ghost's body was a little unstable, and Shen Yizhi took the opportunity to use the soul-binding technique to bind it.

However, the evil ghost was still an evil ghost, and it struggled violently. She could hardly control it, and could only concentrate on maintaining the soul-binding technique.

The little girl pounced on him with bared teeth and claws, trying to bite her, but Yi Chang opened his mouth and spit out a ball of fire the size of a fingernail. That fire was not ordinary fire, but his innate Yang fire that he had nurtured, which had a natural inhibitory effect on Yin objects.

So even though it looked pitifully small, it was able to suppress the little girl to death. She screamed and ran to the side before the flame even got close to her.

However, looking at her mother who was tied up and unable to move, the little girl showed hatred to Shen Yizi, baring her teeth, as if she was ready to pounce on her and bite off a piece of flesh from her at any time.

Shen Yizhi ignored her and started chanting a purification spell for the evil spirit.

Although this evil ghost was filled with resentment, strangely, there was not a trace of evil on his body.

This shows that she has never been stained with blood or killed anyone so far.

So she didn't kill her outright, but wanted to purify the resentment in her to see if she could be liberated.

The sound of chanting echoed in the empty stone cave, ethereal and solemn.

The black resentment shrouding the evil ghost faded and dissipated, and the evil ghost's eyes filled with resentment gradually regained clarity.

She immediately searched for her daughter everywhere. Seeing her screaming in pain from being burned by Yichang's Yang Fire, she felt distressed and said, "Niannian, Niannian, come to mother."

The girl bared her teeth fiercely at Yichang, then returned to her mother and snuggled up to her obediently. Where was the slightest trace of her previous viciousness? "Girl, I am willing to be converted by you, but Nian Nian is innocent. Can you please let her go? I beg you!"

The evil ghost knelt down and kowtowed to her, with tears falling to the ground from his eyes.

But as soon as they touched the ground, those tears turned into a wisp of smoke and disappeared without a trace.

Ghosts don't have tears. After all, they are beings without even a physical body. But at this moment, she shed tears.

Shen Yizhi was shocked and hurriedly stopped her actions, and even lifted the soul-binding technique to restore her freedom.

The evil spirit was startled for a moment, then he hugged his daughter into his arms and kept kissing her, "Nian Nian, Nian Nian..."

Seeing this scene, Shen Yizi was deeply touched. He stood quietly aside and did not disturb the mother and daughter.

"Mom, I'm hungry..." The little girl stuffed her fingers into her mouth and kept sucking them, as if they were some kind of supreme delicacy.

Not only the evil ghost's mother, but even Shen Yizhi, an outsider, felt heartbroken when seeing this.

In my memory, Qingbao also put his fingers in his mouth and cried out that he was hungry.

There is plenty of food in her space, but none of it is suitable for ghosts.

Yichang said, "Have you forgotten? That girl is half human and half soul, so you can give her human food."

On the other side, the woman had already put her fingers into the girl's mouth, letting her eat her soul.

She has been doing this for many years.

The girl has been trapped in this sunlightless cave since the day she was born. All her knowledge comes from her mother. She doesn't know that doing this is harmful to her mother, so she sucks happily.

Shen Yizhi could see clearly that with every time the girl sucked, the girl's soul would become a little thinner.

She was using her own soul to support her daughter.

"I have some food here, let the child eat this."

Shen Yizhi first set out a table, then took out porridge, cakes, fruits and other food and placed them on the table one by one.

The porridge is a soft and sticky mushroom and chicken porridge, and the pastries are also soft and sweet, suitable for children.

The woman was pleasantly surprised. "Thank you, girl! Nian Nian, thank this sister quickly."

Nian Nian stole a glance at Shen Yizhi, touched by her gentle smile, and whispered, "Thank you, sister."

"Eat, if it's not enough, I have more here." Shen Yizhi said softly.

Nian Nian grabbed the woman's hand and said happily, "Mom, we have food! You can eat with Nian Nian!"

The woman was very sad and smiled and said, "Okay."

However, she was a complete soul and could not eat human food at all. But seeing her daughter eating happily, she was infinitely satisfied.

Nian Nian had lived for so many years, but this was the first time she ate real food. Her movements and look were extremely ferocious, like a wolf cub.

Since she hadn't eaten before, the woman couldn't teach her how to eat with chopsticks or a spoon, so she just used her hands. She reached into the porridge bowl with her skinny little hand and grabbed a handful of porridge to stuff into her mouth. But the porridge kept leaking out from between her fingers, so she simply lifted the bowl up, buried her head in it, and gulped it down.

A bowl of porridge was finished in the blink of an eye.

Then he started to eat the cakes, using both hands to grab several pieces and stuff them into his mouth.

Both cheeks are puffed up.

Shen Yizi was really worried that she would eat herself to death, but when he saw that the woman didn't look worried, he felt relieved.

It seems that beings that are half human and half soul have more advantages than humans when it comes to eating.

"My surname is Li and my name is Jiao Niang. May I know your name, young lady?" Li Jiao Niang looked at Shen Yizhizi.

Shen Yizi gave his name.

"Ms. Shen, I'm very sorry for what happened before." Li Jiaoniang said sincerely.

Shen Yizhi said he didn't mind, "Can you tell me why you and Nian Nian were suppressed here?"

Li Jiaoniang smiled bitterly, "What's the inconvenience? But can I ask you a question first?"

"You ask."

"What year is it outside now?"

"Mingde thirteenth year."

"Mingde 13th year? When I was imprisoned, it was Yongchang 17th year."
