At this point, it does sound a bit pitiful for the princess.

Ryoko rubbed her temples.

She always felt that the Ghost King's words weren't just directed at the princess, but might also be directed at her.

So, the Ghost King does indeed know the origin of everything here, right?

"Hey! Don't look at me like that, I don't know anything."

Miss Ghost King waved her hand.

"It's just that my eyes can see the true forms of some demons and monsters."

After the princess was killed, things here did not return to normal.

The huge Japanese garden seemed like a place you could never leave, with long corridors and a white mist.

Su Yu was there, feeling melancholy.

"We can't get out, what should we do?"

They were fine when they arrived, but they can't go back!

Turning around, you see a long corridor. You can't go forward, and you can't go back either!

Ryoko thought for a moment and then turned her gaze to the three little ones.

Xiangyu looked back at her nervously: "What's wrong?"

"Fly up and take a look."

Ryoko pointed to the thicker white fog above the courtyard.

"However, I think this white mist is most likely poisonous, so be careful."

Taro: "..."

You really are my dearest mommy.

Knowing full well that it's poisonous, you still made me go!

“If you don’t want to go, I’ll go. I’m not afraid of poison anyway.” Longjiao rolled up his sleeves, and with a sway, he transformed into the shape of a dragon.

However, this one is smaller than a glutinous rice ball, and looks very young.

"But I can't be too far away from you."

Dragon Horn turned around, tapped his back with his chin, and gestured for Taro to come up.

Taro sighed helplessly, "You're such a hassle."

But I did it anyway, and rolled over onto my back!

Dragon Horn: "Hold on tight!"

It leaped up and smashed through the white mist with brute force, soaring straight into the sky.

But soon, it sensed something was wrong... it felt like it couldn't breathe!

I didn't feel anything special about the taro, but I felt a little dizzy.

"Hey, wake up!"

They really are on the same wavelength.

In this critical moment, Ryūkaku decisively chose to dispel his human form and chanted an ancient incantation to temporarily and forcibly merge with him.

Roar--

The enormous roar shook the entire white smog.

At this moment, Ryoko also saw the truth clearly—a piece of dark brown fragrant wood, protected by a magic circle, was floating in mid-air.

At this time, the fragrant wood is constantly emitting toxic gases.

The white fog will soon cover this land once again!

"Can you take me there?" Su Yu asked Liangzi.

Miss Ryoko nodded, picked up Su Yu, and flew into the air with her.

Su Yu pulled out a small golden knife, cut her finger, smeared blood on the blade, aimed at the piece of fragrant wood, and hurled it fiercely.

click-

A crisp sound!

The fragrant wood split in the middle and quickly shattered into pieces.

A fragrance similar to jasmine wafted through the air.

All the fog dissipated in an instant...

This once magnificent palace collapsed in an instant, returning to its dilapidated state of broken walls and ruins.

……

……

"Liang, do you think there really is a place in this world where I can truly find a safe haven?"

A young woman was drifting on the sea in a small boat.

She was wearing a white wedding dress and holding a thin fox in her arms.

The fox's fur is a rare pale pink, and it has a brand on its forehead that looks like a cherry blossom.

"Wherever I go, I only cause wars and plagues... I guess I'm a jinx?"

The little fox raised its head and glanced at its master.

Oh, or perhaps I shouldn't call him master either.

We're just helping each other out.

When the young woman was locked in the woodshed, this little fox brought her food.

She would bandage the little fox's wounds and groom its fur.

They had been traveling together, drifting on this sea for a long time, and finally arrived at a deserted island.

However, the moment the young woman landed on the island, she was attacked by a monster whose heart was ripped out. The monster lived inside her empty heart, continuing to maintain her human form, as well as her human thoughts and memories…

From then on, she began demanding to eat a human heart every month.

The little fox often went hunting in the mountains, bringing back the hearts of large, ferocious beasts to coax her into believing they were human hearts... and she never noticed anything amiss.

Such days went on for a long time.

Later, the young woman began posting notices, searching for brave warriors who could identify various scents, using fragrant wood as bait to lure them to the island...

This resulted in even more time passing.

With the help of the ghostly and demonic energy here, the little fox gradually attained enlightenment and was soon able to transform into human form.

The young woman's appearance remained unchanged.

She simply grew to love the little pet more and more, and often used her own power to reward and help it, until it finally achieved godhood and was ready to leave...

"In the end, I guess I was unable to leave."

Ryoko sat on her former grave, gazing wistfully at the distant coastline.

Seeing the grave where the little fox was buried reminded Ryoko of many things.

"I'm the only one left by her side, so how could she let me leave?"

The Ghost King sighed and shook his head.

She looked at another grave not far away.

Buried there is probably the owner who once raised Ryoko.

These two, as expected, perished together.

"You two have been together for so long, yet you haven't developed any love... What a pity." The Ghost King's tone was genuinely regretful.

Otherwise, she would have one less rival in love!

“You won’t fall in love with your cheongsam either, will you?” Ryoko calmly retorted, “Love isn’t something that can be cultivated; it’s something that’s always there.”

"Things that were impossible in the first place will still not exist even after thousands or tens of thousands of years..."

Su Yu: "..."

That makes a lot of sense, but could you please tone down that affectionate look in your eyes?

There are kids here too!

433. Miss Ghost King, you are an exception.

After leaving that island, they naturally went to mainland Japan to begin their official tour.

"Uh, what we call illegal entry, right?"

Su Yu is a person with relatively basic legal knowledge.

She would never dare to do something like illegally entering the country.

However, both the Demon King and Ryoko felt like they were at home and were extremely relaxed!

As for the three little ones, they were having a blast.

Su Yu: "..."

Being around them and comparing myself to them, I felt like an oddball.

Ah, damn it!

Really.

"Let's buy a new kimono." Ryoko stopped in front of a kimono shop. "I'd like to buy a white one with a goldfish pattern."

Su Yu: "Buy!"
