Ruan Li gritted her teeth and glanced at Luo Qingci, who lay on the ground. She had never felt so mad before, not even when she was focused solely on seeking revenge.

Right now, she didn't have the energy to think about anything more. Evil Thoughts had thrown everything into this, and she was also going all out.

She had only one thought: no matter what happens in the future, she must not lose here. She could not let Evil Thoughts take over her and kill Luo Qingci.

She was unwilling to let Luo Qingci die ambiguously at the hands of Evil Thoughts, nor was she willing to disappear without asking Luo Qingci anything or figuring out the truth.

Her forehead was throbbing with veins, her eyes alternating between red and black, and a killing aura was emanating from her entire body. She finally closed her eyes tightly after one last look at Luo Qingci.

In the next moment, her entire soul appeared in her spiritual sea, and she clearly saw the Ruan Li that had always existed within her.

The woman across from her, identical in appearance but with a completely different demeanor and expression, was the Evil Thoughts who had accompanied her during the times she almost couldn't hold on.

Although she had always felt something was off about Evil Thoughts and didn't want to be pushed forward by her, she had never considered eliminating Evil Thoughts deep down.

She could feel her pain and understand her experiences. Even though Evil Thoughts was only her own from the previous life, she had indeed accompanied that Ruan Li for much of her life and had once genuinely wanted to help her.

"I never wanted you to disappear," she said, looking at Evil Thoughts with a hoarse voice.

Evil Thoughts, dressed in red inner clothing with a black cloak and with disheveled hair, had a fierce and mocking gaze. "Don't be so sanctimonious. You want me to disappear? Do you have that ability?"

"You know what you are. You're not me and can't replace me. I will decide what I want to do. If you want to overstep and force me to do what I don't want, then you are my enemy. What you're doing now makes me more disgusted than Luo Qingci ever could," Ruan Li said, her previously shattered emotions gradually calming down as her soul became unified.

Evil Thoughts' expression became somewhat crazed. "I thought having me by your side would make you grow a little, but now I see, even if you live another life, you are still hopelessly stupid. Hesitant and indecisive, always entangled by those ridiculous emotions. That woman is clearly plotting against you. How could someone so cold-hearted do so much for you? What makes you special? Why should she risk everything for you?"

Ruan Li listened to her berate herself in pain without speaking. Her eyes suddenly turned red, filled with images of Luo Qingci as Chi Qing, doing things for her.

She clearly felt the intense pain in her heart, making her soul ache so much that she couldn't help but gasp. She pressed her chest and lowered her head to calm down. When she raised her head again, her eyes were calm, showing a serene determination, and she even managed a faint smile.

This smile made Evil Thoughts even more anxious and angry. "What are you smiling about?"

"I finally understand. You don't hate the current Luo Qingci or despise Chi Qing. You're jealous of me, jealous that I encountered someone who treats me this way. Isn't that right?"

Evil Thoughts' expression froze and then twisted further. "Nonsense. What do I have to be jealous of? Jealous that you're being played around by someone, that you love a non-existent person, and a woman at that? Let me tell you, no one in this world will truly love you. You are destined to live with hatred and betrayal. She is Luo Qingci, the Huaizhu Immortal of the Tianyan Sect, a dragon-slaying demon god. Even if she is sincere to you, it doesn't erase the fact that she killed your father. You will never be with her in this lifetime!"
