The reason why Xia Fei did not die was not because the curse had failed but because he and Avril did not have a child!
Both Xia Fei and Radix were stunned when they heard this shocking deduction.
Radix let out a howl that was more painful than a beast's as he said, "What a poisonous woman! I thought that Killer Vanquisher would no longer be passed down in your generation, but it was only delayed! "
"Killer Vanquisher? Is that the name of the curse? "Xia Fei was not frightened by the so-called curse and calmly asked.
"Yes … No." Radix's answer was contradictory. He shook his head and said dejectedly, "Not long after that woman released the curse, many strange things happened in the family. We went to the council of elders, and your grandfather was asked to stay away from the family. Unless the family summoned him, he would never be able to return.
"Your great-grandfather and great-grandmother were naturally unwilling, but since it was the decision of the council of elders, they could not refute it, so they could only support your grandfather in other aspects, including that mysterious soul ship, the Ark. As for the things we brought, the family did not dare keep them, so they left them all on the ship.
"The strange thing was that the day before '', your grandfather suddenly felt unwell. In order not to worry the family, we set off. Your grandfather's condition worsened along the way, so we had to visit a very famous apothecary. It was also from him that we learned of the name of the universe's strange poison, Killer Vanquisher."
Xia Fei was stunned. "So you're saying that my grandfather died from poison and not some curse?"
"Not exactly." Radix continued. "Killer Vanquisher is indeed a poison, but it can't be passed down. You should know that all of your family members died of Killer Vanquisher's poison. This doesn't make sense at all!
"That's why I think that your grandfather might have taken a variant of Killer Vanquisher's poison, or perhaps the curse manifested in the form of Killer Vanquisher. Fortunately, you discovered the source of the curse in time, or else the consequences would have been unimaginable!"
Curses were a terrifying form of spiritual sustenance. Xia Fei did not believe that anyone could be strong enough to cause the death of others with their own will. There were many ways to die, but Xia Fei's family had all died in the form of Killer Vanquisher, which forced Xia Fei to reconsider his understanding of curses.
Radix looked at Xia Fei strangely. He suddenly realized that there was a fundamental change in Xia Fei's generation, for Xia Fei was different from the rest of the Aurora Race! His logic was stronger, and his methods were more sinister!
"First, my reasoning about the curse is completely believable. I'm already over twenty-four years old, and I'm still alive and well. This means that the so-called certain death at twenty-four is just a smokescreen."
"Once people know their own fate, they tend to give up on themselves. First of all, this is a kind of mental destruction. Secondly, people who know that they are going to die will always want to leave behind descendants so that they won't have any descendants. The more they do this, the more they will fall into the enemy's trap! Because raising offspring is a necessary condition for the curse to take effect! "
"Secondly, the enemy doesn't know of my existence. After all, many things happen in another universe, but the Aurora race might not be the same. This woman will definitely keep an eye on the Aurora race in the dark. Once I return to the Aurora race and reveal my identity, the enemy will immediately know that the curse has failed and kill me. Therefore, the plan must be changed. I can't return to the Aurora race, at least not now."
"Thirdly, since I can't return to the Aurora Race to ask for reinforcements, the Law Realm will exist forever. From now on, I must make myself stronger! Until I can challenge the Ghost Renegade Race and slaughter my way to that woman's home! "
Hearing Xia Fei's analysis, Radix could only nod. This was not the first time Radix had seen such extraordinary judgment, but it was the one that had the greatest impact on him!
Hidden behind this madness was an amazing and precise thinking system. This was an important reason why Xia Fei had been able to survive until now.
"Right! Slaughter your way to that woman's home! She doesn't know that you're still alive, and that's your advantage! "Radix excitedly said. Xia Fei's precise and logical reasoning had given Radix great confidence.
Smiling, Xia Fei's eyes flashed with a cold glint.
"That woman's calculations are quite good. She set the curse at twenty-four years old, just the right age to marry and have children. At the same time, her cultivation and connections won't be too strong, making it the perfect time to strike. Alas, my life will probably be longer than she imagined!"
…
Tai's home.
The luxurious villa remained the same, but now that the owner was gone, all that was left were mourners holding fresh flowers.
The saying that tea cools when people are gone was not false at all. Though there were many mourners, there were not many who truly mourned. The vast majority of them were just there to put on a show for others to see. There were even some who had begun plotting how to get their hands on the Tai family's businesses.
The sun gradually set. Aside from the guards sent by the big shots of Red Dwarf Planet to watch over the villa, everyone else appeared very calm.
No one noticed that there was a thin middle-aged man standing on the back of the mountain. There were fresh flowers at his feet, and he exuded a somber aura. It was clear that he had also come to mourn the massacre of the Tai family, but for some reason, he did not enter the Tai family's compound and instead observed from a distant mountain.
* Whoosh whoosh! *
Two shadows suddenly appeared on either side of the middle-aged man. One was a scholarly young man wearing glasses, while the other was a stocky man.
"Senior Brother Hongtu, we've checked carefully. We didn't find Nianzi, but we found traces of him fighting. It's likely that he has been killed." The young man wearing glasses said calmly.
The stocky man nodded and added, "From the traces of the battle, Nianzi was forced to use the Soul Annihilating Light. It seems that there was more than one person who killed this group of people."
The man wearing glasses frowned, "The other party's technique was ordinary. It doesn't look like a professional. I also heard some strange things from the people who came today. It's said that the massacre that night was due to internal strife. A group of soldiers suddenly went crazy and started a massacre. However, after they slaughtered the entire villa, they committed suicide. This is very suspicious."
The middle-aged man called Hongtu did not say a word from the beginning to the end. He just listened. At this moment, he finally could not help but open his mouth.
"Xiao Lin, you're the surveyor. I don't need the content, I just want the answer." Hongtu said with a gloomy face.
The man wearing glasses nodded hurriedly, "Yes, senior brother, you're right. I'll go down and check again. If it doesn't work, I'll go to the city with Biaozi. But this time we didn't inform our master. If he blames us …"
"Don't worry, I'm here." The middle-aged man said without looking sideways.
Xiao Lin and Biaozi went down the mountain again helplessly. They flashed into the Tai's manor. The so-called guards were just decorations to them. They were not at the same level at all.
"What's the relationship between Brother Hongtu and this family? He actually took the risk of offending our master to bring us out. Is he a relative of this family? "Biaozi, who was tall and sturdy but a little naive, asked.
Xiao Lin pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose and said with a smile, "Do you know what Senior Brother Hongtu's name was before he joined the sect?"
"What?"
"Tai Hongtu." Xiao Lin said calmly.
"Tai? Strange, the family that was annihilated seems to have the surname Tai too!? "
Slap ~
Xiao Lin stretched out his hand and slapped Biaozi's head. He said with a smile, "You fool. If he didn't have a relationship, why would Senior Brother Hongtu send Nianzi to this broken place? Although Nianzi was kicked out of the sect, he was a proper beginner level Soul Eater and had a complete soul imprint! His combat power was at the same level as yours. "
"No matter how bad a Soul Eater of this level is, he wouldn't have fallen to a place like the Red Dwarf Star, where he could make a living anywhere. It's a pity that Senior Brother Hongtu saved Nianzi's life back then. In gratitude, Nianzi promised Hongtu to be a guard for his second brother's family for three years. I never thought that he would lose his life in just two months. "
Xia Fei did not know that the Tai family had a youngest son who was ranked fourth. He did not go into business like his father and brother but embarked on the path of Soul Cultivation! Even that mysterious Soul Eater was arranged by him to stay in the Tai family.
"Oh, so this family is Senior Brother Hongtu's elder brother! No wonder he was so angry and brought us here in a hurry. But since it's his elder brother, why didn't he come in to mourn? "Biaozi wondered.
Sighing softly, Xiao Lin glanced at Tai Hongtu on the mountain and said, "Senior Brother and his family have long fallen out. He has removed the 'Tai' character and is only called Hongtu. He even swore that he would never step into the Tai family's door."
"But there are always exceptions. His second brother and senior brother had a good relationship since young. Senior brother fell out with the whole family, but he didn't implicate his second brother, Tai Tingyu. It is said that Tai Tingyu was able to successfully take over the Tai family's business because senior brother secretly played tricks on him. He killed his eldest brother, third brother, and his father."
Biaozi's face turned pale when he heard this. It was hard for him to accept that his father and brother had been killed. Looking at Tai Hongtu's cold eyes on the mountain, Biaozi's back broke out in a cold sweat.
"What a pity. If the old man of the Tai family knew that senior brother had two and a half soul imprints, I'm afraid he wouldn't have driven senior brother out of the house, and he wouldn't have died," Xiao Lin said to himself.
Following the footprints, Xiao Lin investigated the scene again. It had rained last night, which made it even more difficult to find clues to the family extermination case.
"Forget it. There are no clues here. Let's go to the city and have a look. I heard that on the night of the incident, Tai Ning and a man called Xia Fei had a big fight because of a Crane Clan woman. There are also a few people who were plotted against by the Tai family. They are also very suspicious. Let's capture them and interrogate them. Perhaps we can find some clues."
Shaking his head, Xiao Lin quickly left with Biaozi. Meanwhile, Tai Hongtu was still standing on the mountain, unmoved. His eyes were filled with murderous intent!
…
Late at night, Xia Fei returned to his residence as usual. When he opened the door, he did not see En Ya. In the past few days, no matter how late Xia Fei came back, En Ya would always prepare a meal and wait for him. After Xia Fei finished eating, she would tidy up the dining table before going back to sleep.
Frowning, Xia Fei looked at the empty dining table and fell into deep thought.
"Sigh, what you said today must have hurt En Ya. She won't run away, will she?" Yuan complained in Xia Fei's ear.
Just as he finished speaking, he heard a strange voice coming from a dark corner.
"Are you Xia Fei? I've been waiting for you for a long time. "
