The little fetus's heart was instantly filled with resentment and hatred at the thought of its tragic experience.
His reason vanished instantly, and he completely ignored Xiao Yanbao's advice, charging straight towards the family of three.
He wanted to take revenge on the brat and his family of three tenfold, a hundredfold, a thousandfold, for what he had experienced.
Make them pay a heavy price.
Xiao Yanbao clearly wanted to stop the little fetus from doing something irreversible, and unconsciously struggled to break free from her fourth uncle Li Qichen's embrace.
But Li Qichen hugged the little dumpling even tighter.
"Fourth Uncle..."
Xiao Yanbao looked at Li Qichen with some confusion.
Fourth Uncle deliberately avoided her gaze, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke his deepest, most genuine thoughts:
"Actually... I think that brat and his family of three should be punished!"
In Li Qichen's view, that brat is a representative of the inherent evil in human nature, a born bad seed!
He has none of the innocence of a child; on the contrary, he is full of malice.
At only six years old, he was able to do such a horrifying thing.
Even though he saw the pregnant woman passing by downstairs, he deliberately pushed the flowerpot down, intending to hit her with utter malice.
His actions caused a baby to die in the womb, becoming a spirit in the fetus.
It's only natural that the little spirit wanted to take revenge on him.
Even if he was killed by the spirit of the unborn child, it was a just punishment.
This is the truth that good and evil will eventually be rewarded; it's not that retribution won't come, it's just that the time hasn't arrived yet!
The unlucky fellow beside him seemed to share the same thought as Li Qichen, floating to the side like a spectator, his eyes full of anticipation and excitement as he said:
"Hehehe... The resentment that humans feel before they die is the strongest and most delicious!"
It actually hopes that the little spirit will kill the whole family of three!
“But if the little fetus really takes revenge on that family of three, the underworld will definitely not let him off! He might be thrown into the eighteenth level of hell to be punished.”
Xiao Yanbao's brows furrowed into a deep frown. He turned his gaze toward the direction of the fetal spirit and said with heartache, "This way, he will completely lose the chance to be reborn. He will never be able to reunite with his parents again."
The reason why the little baby wanted to stop the little fetal spirit's revenge was not out of a saintly heart or to protect the family of three who were also human.
She also doesn't advocate for endless cycles of revenge.
She simply didn't want the little spirit to do anything unworthy, or to completely lose its chance to be reborn because of three bad people.
If he is able to be reborn, he may very well meet his parents again and be reborn as their child!
Then, won't the three of them be reunited?
Perhaps Xiao Yanbao's ideas are somewhat idealistic, but she believes that whether human or ghost, everyone should have hope.
Li Qichen frowned and said, "But what he wants to do most right now is to take revenge. How painful it would be for him to die with regrets!"
What my fourth uncle said seemed to make a lot of sense.
The little boy immediately started to struggle with his decision.
"Then what should Yan Yan do? Just stand by and watch the little spirit commit an error that the underworld cannot tolerate and be punished by it?"
Just as Xiao Yanbao and his fourth uncle were discussing what to do, the little fetal spirit rushed to the family of three.
His body turned bright red, as if it were burning, a flame filled with resentment and hatred, about to devour the family of three.
"Do not harm anyone!"
Just then, a deep male voice came from inside, and it sounded somewhat familiar.
Xiao Yanbao turned his head upon hearing the sound and saw a person dressed in a Taoist robe flying towards him.
Master Xu!
Xiao Yanbao's eyes widened slightly, both surprised and delighted.
Master Xu waved his whisk and opened the small spirit from in front of the family of three.
Immediately afterwards, Master Xu drew a talisman in the air, extinguishing the flames on the three members of the family and then creating a protective barrier around them.
Master Xu's cultivation was very high, and the little fetal spirit seemed to sense it as well, its expression changing visibly.
Even the unlucky guy who had been watching the show from the sidelines quickly returned to Li Qichen's side.
Because it now coexists with Li Qichen, harming it is equivalent to harming Li Qichen.
It was certain that Master Xu would not harm Li Qichen, so staying by Li Qichen's side was the safest option at this time.
The unlucky fellow's wishful thinking was going very well.
However, Master Xu had not yet noticed its existence. All his attention was on the little fetal spirit, because the little fetal spirit's resentment was too strong!
"Do not harm anyone! Surrender immediately and return to where you belong!"
Master Xu warned the little fetus spirit, his fingers unconsciously gripping the handle of his whisk.
Because Master Xu's appearance ruined her plans, the little spirit looked at Master Xu with resentment and cursed:
"You meddlesome Taoist priest!"
"I'm just doing my duty," Master Xu explained calmly, then made a gesture to exorcise the ghost.
Little Yanbao was afraid that Master Xu would destroy the little fetal spirit, so he quickly shouted to Master Xu:
"Master Xu, please don't harm the little fetus!"
A crisp, sweet voice reached my ears, sounding strangely familiar.
Master Xu was momentarily stunned and subconsciously turned his head away.
Taking advantage of this moment, the little spirit sensed the situation and slipped away.
