You can edit link of image or leave empty by editing single post. this is actually image link so it is displaying as it is.

Okay, but many themes automatically have the image link to the post. I really don’t want to edit hundreds of post individually… So, is there an automated way to do that?
You have to manually edit link of image. because these are added by you. these are not post thumbnail.
Alternatively you can use light box plugins so when user will click on image, it will display in pop up box instead link of image. like: https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-lightbox/

The theme we had before (three days ago) would automatically take you from the excerpt image to the post. There must be a way of doing that automatically.
SEOPress theme use the_excerpt() function for loop pages. the_excerpt() function automatically exclude post images.i do not know, why it is not excluding post image for you. Please ask on WordPress support because this is not theme side issue. also we have texted this issue on our local server and image do not display on loop pages.

WordPress support had this to say:
“the code in your theme is not doing what you want. You can either modify the code or ask the author to correct it (or both).”
