The protagonist committed numerous evil deeds.

Chapter 93 Past Life Chapter 20 The person you should save most is yourself.

As soon as Wen Mingzhu left, Shen Yingsi couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

His body began to burn again, and the rampaging demonic energy seemed to be tearing his body apart! The newly grown demon core caused him to lose his mind again, becoming agitated, bloodthirsty, and mad.

Just then, the soldiers at the door came in again with instruments of torture. Seeing this, the soldiers swallowed hard, all feeling a little scared.

Bound by iron chains, Shen Yingsi was like a wild beast, and the entire dungeon was filled with his frantic screams and the constant tug of the chains.

Left with no other option, the soldiers had to retreat until the noise inside subsided before they went in to carry out the torture.

At this moment, the demonic poison in Shen Yingsi's body subsided for a while, but the pain was still unbearable. The pain in his body made him feel as if the whip lashing him was just tickling.

When Wen Li arrived here, this was the scene she saw.

Wen Li watched from afar, and for some reason, she felt a tightness in her chest that made her extremely uncomfortable.

Wen Li leaned against the door and instructed the soldiers outside, "Make them stop first."

"Huh? Shouldn't we torture him a bit more before throwing him away?"

Wen Li kicked the soldier who was speaking in front of her.

"Just go when I tell you to. Why ask so many questions? Are you looking for trouble?"

"Yes."

The guards were furious but dared not speak out; they could only go in and tell them to stop.

Wen Li leaned against the door and took a few deep breaths. When it was almost time to go inside, she went in.

At this moment, Shen Yingsi lay motionless on the ground.

When Wen Li entered, the soldiers stood still, waiting for her instructions. Wen Li waved her hand, signaling them to leave.

After the soldiers left, Wen Li squatted down in front of Shen Yingsi. As soon as she squatted down, Shen Yingsi suddenly raised his head.

Now Wen Li could see his face clearly. This face, covered in scales, was completely different from before; it was both terrifying and ugly.

Is this really Shen Yingsi?

Caught off guard by their eye contact, Wen Li felt inexplicably flustered, her fingers involuntarily clenching. The next second, Shen Yingsi quickly lowered his head.

"Miss Wen, don't look, it will frighten you."

With just that one sentence, Wen Li suddenly relaxed again. Even now, how could he still be so foolish?

"Shen Yingsi, do you know who I am?"

Shen Yingsi kept his head down and did not react. After a while, he frowned and spat out blood again.

“You may not know me, but I should know you fairly well. Your Highness, since childhood, has regarded saving the common people as your responsibility. I heard that after being locked up here for so many days, your biggest worry is the situation outside. But you know that right now, everyone outside is cursing you. You can barely protect yourself, yet you still want to save them. How foolish.”

Wen Li thought he wouldn't pay attention to her, but to her surprise, Shen Yingsi spoke up.

“This is my life, I have to save them.”

Wen Li sneered and looked at him coldly. She stood up, drew the red silk sword from her waist, and pointed it at him: "Let me introduce myself first. My name is Wen Li, and I am your enemy. I was the one who poisoned you, and I have to take responsibility for the pain you have suffered. Now my mission is to kill you."

"Kill me? You want to kill me?"

The person lying on the ground slowly raised their head, their eyes filled with tears. Despite having a fierce and terrifying face, Wen Li felt a sense of pity for them.

"Is it strange? Now that you've become a monster, how many people in this world don't want you dead? Killing you is my mission. Besides, if I don't kill you today, what if you come looking for revenge in the future?"

Tears streamed down Shen Yingsi's face. The demonic poison in his body had not completely stopped acting up, but he felt that the poison was not hurting as much anymore.

"Hahaha... Everyone wants me dead! Everyone wants me dead! And you want me dead too! You killed my mother, you killed my uncle, you killed the Xie family who protected the Great Jin for decades! And now you want to kill me! Hahaha..."

Shen Yingsi seemed to have suddenly gone mad. He was laughing and crying at the same time, desperate and insane.

Wen Li looked at him, feeling inexplicably flustered, and her hand holding the sword trembled slightly.

"Kill me! Come on, kill me! Wen Li, kill me!"

The sound of the chains swinging became even louder. Shen Yingsi, as if possessed, gripped the sword in Wen Li's hand tightly, trying to plunge it into her neck.

Wen Li panicked and tried to remove the sword, but the next second, the sword pierced into Shen Yingsi's left eye socket.

Wen Li immediately pulled out the sword, and blood flowed out instantly. Shen Yingsi's left eye had become a bloody skull.

This made his already fierce appearance even more terrifying.

"Come and kill me! Kill me!"

Shen Yingsi seemed oblivious to his own pain, and instead pounced on Wen Li even more frantically.

Wen Li took a few steps back and watched him roar madly. The iron chains behind him rattled continuously, and with a loud crash, the chains were torn off by him.

Before Wen Li could react, he tackled her to the ground, and then her cheek suddenly felt a chill.

That was blood dripping from his eye socket.

Shen Yingsi was about to snatch the sword next to her when Wen Li immediately cast a spell to freeze him in place.

The empty dungeon finally fell silent, and for a moment it seemed that only the breathing of the two people could be heard inside.

They were standing too close. When Wen Li turned to look at him, she immediately saw his despair and sorrow.

Wen Li reached out and tried to cover his bleeding left eye.

"Shen Yingsi, everyone wants you dead, so are you going to do as we wish?"

Shen Yingsi turned to look at her, and Wen Li felt a chill on her cheek again; it was a tear that had fallen from his right eye.

He looked at her, tears falling one by one onto her face.

Wen Li's breathing quickened: "The more we want you to die, the more you must live well. If we scold you, scold us back; if we hit you, hit us back. As long as you're alive, you can't give up, even if you can't win the argument or the fight. Shen Yingsi, no one in this world is born to save anyone else; the person you should save most is yourself."

After saying these words, Wen Li did not speak again, and the dungeon fell into a deathly silence once more.

Only when she realized that Shen Yingsi's emotions had calmed down did Wen Li break the spell and quietly push him away. She then took out medicine from her Qiankun bag to bandage him.

Her movements as she applied the medicine and bandaged the wound were very gentle, and her expression was unusually tender.

The demonic poison within Shen Yingsi's body had subsided, and his wounds seemed to be slowly healing. He remained motionless, quietly watching her.

Shen Yingsi had too many injuries, and it took quite a while just to bandage him. By the time Wen Li started bandaging his left eye, there was no more gauze left in the empty bag.

Wen Li first applied the elixir to his wound, then untied the widest red ribbon from her head. Just as she was about to tie the wound up, she bumped into Shen Yingsi's unblinking eyes.

Those blood-red eyes seemed to see only her, gazing at her with tears in them, as if waiting for her salvation.

Wen Li's heart skipped a beat, and she simply covered his other uninjured eye as well.

"Don't misunderstand, I have no intention of letting you go. In a moment, I will throw you into Ghost Valley. It is said to be very terrifying in there. Demons have been imprisoned there for five hundred years, and more than half of them have died or been injured. But no one has ever entered there before. You are the first. I heard that the resentment inside can slowly devour everything. Even if you are immortal, you may not be able to survive in there. From now on, whether you live or die will be up to fate."

Shen Yingsi's eyes were covered, so he couldn't see her expression, but he could hear her tone, which was relaxed and indifferent yet extremely cold.

He suddenly asked, "Wen Li, do you also want me to die there? Do you want that?"

Wen Li paused for two seconds after hearing this, then continued bandaging, pretending not to have heard his question.

With Shen Yingsi's eyes blindfolded, Wen Li felt much more at ease. She naturally carried him on her back and walked out of the dungeon step by step.

A girl dressed in red carried a huge and terrifying monster on her back, walking step by step into the darkness.

The dungeon is not far from the Ghost Valley rift, after all, this place was originally used to imprison monsters who escaped from Ghost Valley.

Guigu Valley was already dangerous, and now that the seal is gone, there's no one to guard it.

The fissure in Guigu Valley is very large, about a hundred meters wide, and bottomless; it is pitch black when viewed from above. But the black mist and resentment constantly rising from within are chilling.

Standing in the crack at the entrance of Ghost Valley, Wen Li couldn't help but feel a little scared.

She took a few deep breaths, slowly lowered Shen Yingsi, and prepared to push him down, but after a long pause, she suddenly blurted out, "I don't want to."

Shen Yingsi's hand clenched slightly, and Wen Li leaned close to his ear and continued, "Shen Yingsi, come back alive. Good and evil are rewarded accordingly. Remember to come back and take revenge on me. Come back and kill me."

Before she finished speaking, Wen Li pushed him down. She watched him fall, and saw him pull off the headband covering his eyes, looking straight at her.

She couldn't see his expression clearly, but she could only think that he must hate her to death.

Wen Li lowered her head and watched him fall into the darkness, be swallowed by the black mist below, until he was completely out of sight.

It doesn't matter. Shen Yingsi has nothing to do with her. Whether he lives or dies is none of her concern. She will forget about him soon.

Wen Li was a bad person to begin with, and bad people never feel remorse.
