His sword just passed the grey ball, and he can only watch as the ball went inside the girl's head.
Itachi walked towards the girl and found out she was sleeping. "Let's go Uncle Ceasar."
"What do you mean? She's obviously an evil spirit master. You don't know but your master hates them to the core. He might kill her" Uncle Ceasar can't help but remind Itachi. Over the years he grew, a lot of spirit beasts got to know Itachi. They were skeptical at first but Itachi managed to be accepted by them.
"I'll handle master" Itachi calmly spoke. He's also not gonna leave a girl alone in this forest. He also has bigger plans towards this holy princess. He definitely knew about evil spirit masters. His master already told him about them as the evil spirit masters killed a lot of spirit beasts over the years. His master spoke that they might even be the reason for them to go extinct.
They didn't talk back anymore as they went deeper towards the Star Duo Forest.

Hei Xieye was destined not to live a normal life. Whether due to her spirit or her circumstances. Her mother was the kindest person she knew but she was killed by spirit masters as she was caught having a evil spirit, the 'Undead'. Xieye was only four years old at that time. Her mother never even killed anyone so how can she be evil? She told Xieye about how she never cultivated despite having a bright future if she pursue it. Her mother despised her spirit. At that time, Xieye didn't understand what was evil, the rightious people killing innocents, or the evil people who just wants to live and find a place to call 'home' in this world.
A friend of her mother took care of her until four days ago. Her spirit awakened and it was 'Necromancer'. Xieye didn't understand but few men in black robes took her from her new home. Her Aunt Ya just watched from the side. She later knew she was part of the Holy Ghost Church. Over the days she saw countless murders, brutal scenes that are too much for a kid like her.
The Church's Supreme Leader gave her the title 'Holy Princess' as her spirit was one of the most evilic spirit by nature.
She was supposed to get a spirit ring for her spirit but the situation took a drastic turn.
Hei Xieye slowly opened her eyes and found herself in a dark place. A male human around the age of twenty was standing in front of her. The man has white hair and his eyes were radiating with gold and light, but she can also feel the aura of death around him. He was wearing a dark robe.
He looked at her before muttering, "Who would have thought that an old fellow like me can still have a spirit left? And I found a human so campatible with my arts."
"Hello there little girl what's your name?" The man looked at her with a calm gaze.
"Ahm Hei Xieye" She answered while looking at her surroundings, "Where are we mister? And who are you?"
"We are inside your mind, or we can say your spiritual sea. As for me, I'm just a dead old man who can't die. You can call me Yi Lai Ke Si, or Yi Lai for short."
"Ok, but how do we get out of my mind?" Hei Xieye asked urgently as she knew the elder that was supposed to protect her die. How could she be calm?
"Before that , I'll slowly explain myself. I'm also known as Necromancer in a different world. I was once the scion of light until circumstances made me bath in darkness, seeking power to exact revenge. I can see that you are compatible for my holy arts. So why don't you accept me as your master? And before you refuse, just know that the Necromancer I strived in is not evil, and more towards holiness."
Seeing that the girl was silent, Yi Lia continues, "I'll provide for your spirit rings for you to become strong and your spirits evil properties will be purified."
Hearing him, Xieye immediately kowtowed in the ground, "Xieye greets master." Just like her mother, Xieye also despised her spirit due to it needing to absorb blood and death miasma. If the man in front of her can make her strong and purify spirit, she will gladly give be his disciple.
