"Ah!!!"

Li Xiuer let out a terrified scream, a sharp and shrill sound that shattered the tranquility of the night like a razor-sharp knife.

The sound echoed in the empty room, and it seemed as if even the walls were trembling.

Her father, Li Dashi, and mother were awakened by the sudden scream. They sat up abruptly from their sleep, their eyes filled with fear and confusion.

"Lei'er! What are you doing?!" Li Dashi shouted in terror, his eyes wide.

He saw Li Lei standing by Li Xiuer's bedside, his hands tightly gripping her arms, and he was actually gnawing on her.

This scene sent chills down Li Dashi's spine. Without hesitation, he rushed to the bedside and tried to push Li Lei away with his own strength.

However, he soon discovered that his strength was so insignificant in front of Li Lei.

Li Lei seemed to have become an unshakeable mountain; no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move Li Lei an inch.

Fine beads of sweat appeared on Li Dashi's forehead. He anxiously turned to look at his wife, his eyes filled with pleading.

"Lei'er! Look at us, I am your mother!" Li Lei's mother rushed to the bedside, crying and trying to touch Li Lei's cheeks with her hands, hoping to bring him back to his senses.

However, Li Lei seemed to be controlled by a mysterious force, ignoring his mother's calls.

Li Xiuer struggled in agony, her face streaked with tears, her voice hoarse.

She tried to push Li Lei away with her other hand, but her strength was equally insignificant.

She could only watch helplessly as Li Lei bit her arm, leaving deep teeth marks, and blood kept seeping from the wound.

Just when they were in despair, Li Lei suddenly stopped moving.

His body began to tremble, as if he were going through a violent struggle.

A sliver of clarity gradually returned to his eyes, but this was followed by a deeper sense of terror and bewilderment.

"What... what did I do?" Li Lei's voice trembled as he released his grip on Li Xiuer's arm, his eyes filled with terror and guilt.

He looked at his hands, still stained with Li Xiuer's blood, the blood stinging his eyes.

"Brother, you... how could you..." Li Xiuer's voice choked with sobs, and tears welled up in her eyes again.

She looked at Li Lei, her eyes filled with doubt and confusion.

She couldn't understand why her brother, who had always doted on her, had suddenly become so terrifying.

Li Lei's mother and Li Dashi also gathered around, looking at Li Lei with worry and confusion in their eyes.

"I... I..."

Li Lei stared at his hands, his eyes filled with disbelief.

It's myself.

I did everything myself.

He's the one who's the devil!

It's that eerie presence.

His body trembled slightly, as if he couldn't bear this cruel reality.

He looked down at his hands, those once warm and strong hands, now stained with the blood of his loved ones.

He couldn't believe that he himself had caused all of this.

Li Dashi and his wife hugged their daughter, looking at Li Lei in horror.

They hadn't recovered from the shock they'd just experienced!

The room reeked of blood, and everyone was speechless with shock at the sudden turn of events.

An eerie silence descended.

Li Lei's body.

Wang Huan opened his mouth wide, unable to utter a word. He felt that none of the strange things he had heard about in the village were as outrageous as what he had just witnessed!

Ye Jing looked at the family of four in the empty room and sighed softly.

That's how cruel the world is; once you're targeted by something you can't resist, every step you take is part of someone else's plan.

"I... I didn't know it would turn out like this."

Li Lei's voice trembled, but he still broke the silence.

"Xiu'er, I'm sorry, I didn't know, I didn't know it would be like this."

He has now regained his senses and is even more regretful about what just happened!

"Brother, brother, I think you should bandage me first!" Li Xiuer took a deep breath; the pain in her arm made her pale.

Li Lei hurriedly stepped forward, Spiritual Qi appearing in his hand.

However, Li's father and mother took a step back in fear.

"Dad, Mom, what are you doing? My brother definitely didn't do it on purpose." Li Xiuer chuckled softly; she had been terrified just now, but had come to her senses.

That wasn't what my brother originally intended.

She believed in her brother.

His own brother was already a powerful cultivator.

Yet he still risked transferring the formation within his body to his own.

A brother like that would never harm her.

My brother must have been affected by that formation or some other strange force.

Li Xiuer's steadfastness and trust deepened Li Lei's feelings of guilt and self-reproach.

However, at the same time, her heart was also warmed.

Fortunately, my younger sister understands me.

He knelt down and carefully channeled Spiritual Qi into his sister's wounds, his eyes filled with self-reproach and regret.

"I'm sorry, Xiu'er, I really don't know why things turned out this way." Li Lei's voice was low and trembling; he couldn't forgive himself for his actions.

As Li Dashi and his wife watched this scene, their initial fear gradually turned into confusion and worry.

They knew Li Lei had always been a kind and responsible child, but what had just happened was hard for them to understand.

"Lei'er, what happened to you just now?" Li Dashi finally asked, hoping to get some explanation from Li Lei.

Li Lei took a deep breath and said solemnly, "I don't know either, but I think it must be because of my sister's formation. I need a place for emergency seclusion. You all leave me first and go to the inn in town!"

"Brother, I want to go with you!" Li Xiuer cried out.

"No, I don't know what will happen next. At least I need to wait until I recover." Li Lei refused without hesitation!

He knew nothing about the situation; the formation was even more bizarre than he had imagined.

"Elder brother..."

"Alright, there's no room for discussion." Li Lei's tone became stern.

Li Xiuer pouted and frowned.

"Father, Mother, please go inside. I need to check myself!" Li Lei felt like there was a thorn in his heart.

If that formation isn't eliminated, it will always be a hidden danger.

After my parents and sister left.

Li Lei immediately began internal inspection.

The array at the Dantian was indeed darker than before.

It exudes Evil Qi.

Li Lei's brows were furrowed tightly.

Has the formation suddenly changed?

What to do?

Li Lei mobilized all his Spiritual Qi and began to surge towards the formation, attempting to obliterate it.

However, when Li Lei's Spiritual Qi touched the formation, it was like a clay ox entering the sea, instantly absorbed without a trace.
