"What's going on? Why are these images suddenly appearing!" David vigorously shook his head, trying to make these unfamiliar images disappear from his mind. But no matter how hard he tried, these images remained as if they were ingrained memories.

"Daddy, look! The butterfly is so beautiful!" The little girl excitedly exclaimed to the man.

The man smiled and nodded. "We are the most beautiful butterflies! Daddy hopes that you can also fly freely like it in the sky without worries."

With that, the man took out a hairpin from his pocket and placed it in the girl's hand. "Butterfly, happy birthday!" The little girl jumped up in excitement, hugging the man tightly.

David's gaze quickly shifted from the hairpin to realize that it was the same butterfly hairpin held by the woman in the red robe. "Could it be her childhood memory?" David suddenly realized. And that man was the old man he had just killed.

Meanwhile, David also learned the woman's name, Butterfly, from his father. But this only made David more puzzled. He couldn't understand why she wanted him to see her childhood experiences. Was there another hidden agenda?

So David looked up at the red-robed woman across from him. She had her head lowered, tightly clutching the butterfly hairpin in her hand, with drops of blood tears falling from her eyes, making a "drip-drip" sound on the ground.

In the next moment, she suddenly raised her head and looked at David, a glimpse of compassion appearing in her eyes. Although it flashed by, David keenly caught it. This made David immediately realize that the woman seemed to have some secret. But before he could further contemplate, the images in his mind started moving again.

However, the scene had shifted, and now it showed the little girl lying on the ruins with a terrified look in her eyes. The man was being trampled underfoot by a hunched figure. Around this figure stood decaying corpses with hungry eyes fixed on the little girl. This made David's heart tighten, and he stared intently at the figure.

But the mist surrounding him was too dense, preventing him from clearly seeing the figure. He could only see a hunched silhouette. At this moment, the lips of the figure moved as if about to say something. But suddenly, the scene disappeared inexplicably from David's mind.

"What's going on!" David was momentarily stunned, then looked at the red-robed woman. She had an extremely pained expression on her face, and a faint blue flame appeared on her chest, flickering as if burning something inside her. She reached out to extinguish the flame but immediately recoiled in pain.

At the same time, the coldness returned to the woman's face. She lifted her head, locked eyes with David, and a sinister smile curved on her lips. "Welcome to my world. Here... I will... kill you!"

After uttering these chilling words, the red-robed woman charged at David like a gust of bloody wind! Seeing this, David quickly dodged to the side, trying to evade her attack. But at this moment, he realized that he was standing in a pool of blood, unable to move no matter how hard he tried. As the red-robed woman drew closer, David quickly retrieved two steel plates from his storage system and swiftly stacked them together, creating a makeshift shield that he placed in front of him.

"Boom!" The red-robed woman crashed into the steel plates, and the tremendous force immediately transmitted to David's body. He felt a sharp pain in his chest, and his entire body began to slide backward rapidly. The golden defensive layer on his body shimmered from the impact.

After sliding for several meters, David finally came to a stop, feeling the intense impact he had just endured. He knew that if it weren't for the golden defensive layer on his body, he would probably have met his end there. At the same time, the red-robed woman halted her steps, blood swirling around her. The blue flame on her chest grew more and more intense, adding a touch of pain to her angry expression.

"Seek revenge and hate...!" She struggled to move her throat, producing intermittent sounds, and then charged at David again, as if driven by madness. Before David could recover, he tried to dodge but realized that he was surrounded by cascading bloodfalls, leaving him no chance to evade.

In his desperation, David recalled the scene from his father taking out the butterfly hairpin in his mind. He quickly shouted, "Butterfly, is the hairpin your father gave you still with you?"

Upon hearing his voice, the red-robed woman paused, immediately stopped in her tracks, and then opened her palm, carefully looking at the hairpin in her hand. Seizing this opportunity, David swiftly evaded her and found himself in a relatively open area. Meanwhile, she stood motionless, holding the hairpin and repeatedly muttering, "It's here! The hairpin my father gave me is here!"

She cradled the hairpin against her chest, and suddenly, David understood something. He realized that the hairpin was something that could calm her down, as it held sentimental value due to the deep bond between father and daughter. It could even make her stop attacking him in an instant.

So David continued, "Don't disappoint your father. You should be the butterfly freely soaring in the sky, not in the state you are in now. If your father knew, he would be heartbroken."

Having said that, David carefully observed the changes in the red-robed woman's expression. As expected, whenever her father was mentioned, a happy smile appeared on her face. Not only did it reduce the hostility emanating from her, but even the faint blue flame on her chest began to weaken. David immediately deduced that this flame controlled her aggressive intent.

Meanwhile, in the ruins, a dark figure spoke with a hint of mockery while observing the images appearing in the void.

"Alvin, you did say that she was the most successful corpse you've cultivated. That's quite a boast, isn't it? "Upon hearing Alexander's words, Alvin's expression darkened. In order to turn the red-robed woman into the most formidable corpse, he personally killed her father and turned his body into a decaying spider parasite. This was done to unleash the rage within her and enhance her strength. However, he never expected that David would awaken her subconscious memories, which took him by surprise.
