My Substitute CEO Bride
Chapter 1396

"Evil creature... Get out!"

Nash made a runic incantation with his right hand, and a golden talisman hit the statue.

The golden halo behind the statue turned crimson red. A blood-red palm print collided with the talisman.

The palm print was defeated by the golden light. The golden light blasted the white porcelain statue into powder. The golden light turned into a large stake and nailed the infant ghost to the wall.

The Evil Conquering Curse was specially designed to subdue evil spirits.

"It hurts..."

The infant ghost was about the size of a palm, like a newly formed embryo, except that it looked grotesque with no skin.

At this time, the infant ghost grabbed the golden light on his chest with its two little hands and cried loudly.

Nash asked calmly, "Do you have any last words?"

If the baby were any other evil creature, Nash would not even bother, let alone ask for its last words. However, infant ghosts were different. Every infant ghost was pitiful. As soon as they took shape, they were refined into evil spirits by heretics. When the mother was about to give birth, the infant ghost would eat the mother's internal organs for sustenance and eat its way out of the mother's belly.

It was tragically pitiful, but the infant ghost had to die.

Infant ghosts could absorb the power of its offerings and grow very quickly. It only took 50 years for it to cultivate to the level of the ghoul overlord, and it would take a hundred years to become a corpse demon.

Nash had to kill it, so he asked the infant ghost what its last words were. He would help if the infant had an unfulfilled wish as a gesture of goodwill.

"Please don't kill me! I've never hurt anyone! I'm the true victim. Why are you bullying me..."

The infant ghost's childish voice made Nash feel a little soft-hearted.

The ghost was right. It was the true victim.

Nash sighed softly. "This is not an excuse for you to cause trouble to the world!"

"Don't try to persuade me to be kind if you haven't experienced my suffering. If you have experienced my suffering, you may not be as kind as I am! If others can bully me, why can't I bully others? Is it because I'm not a normal person?"

The infant ghost had a look of agony on its face. Dark blood was oozing from its chest. The blood dripped to the ground, sizzling as it corroded the ground with holes.

Nash remained silent. He once took it as his duty to conquer demons, but now he was speechless by the infant ghost's words.

All resentment stemmed from hatred. Nash had harbored a blood feud himself. He slaughtered the Green Bamboo Association and destroyed the Eves and the Freemans. He also had plans to destroy the Kleins and the Jacksons in the future. "We have different paths and don't work together. You're an evil creature, after all!"

"Heaven and earth were unkind! All of this is stupid and hopeless!"

"If you want to blame it on someone... blame it all on the injustice of heaven!" Nash's tone was gentle, mostly helpless. He drew a runic incantation, and a Nine-Character Mantra appeared in front of him. Some blurry images appeared in front of the infant ghost.

...

Inside a luxurious village, countless men in black were in the midst of a massacre.

The young females in the village all wore the same clothes. They were either pregnant or holding their children. Suddenly, Nash saw a familiar face among the women. Ruby Xing, his mother, was holding a baby in her arms. That baby was Nash.

This infant ghost... was from the Young family!

Nash felt as though he had been struck by lightning. His mind was blown. He became unstable, and the Nine-Character Mantra collapsed. He spat out a mouthful of blood. The scene continued to flash by.

The women scattered and fled. One after another, the women fell, and even the children were not spared.

An old Path taker in a robe took away a heavily pregnant woman. This pregnant woman was the mother of the infant ghost. She was taken to a deep mountain forest.

These evil Path takers used secret methods to refine the embryo in her belly into an infant ghost. As Nash knew, the pregnant woman would be in excruciating pain right before giving birth. Her internal organs and flesh would be eaten by her own baby.
