Crossing the Palace Fighting Fox Harem
Chapter 534 Suicide
In the dead of night, a special guest wrapped in a black cloak sneaked into the Xian Palace where no one dared to approach.
The figure moved quickly along the corridor, passed through a small garden, and finally came to the door of the ghost king. Except for Ji Anni, no one dared to approach here. The shadow was very nervous and trembling all over. She took a deep breath and mustered all her courage to knock on the door.
After two soft "knock knocks", there was no response from the room, but the door opened silently, which was extremely strange.
The black shadow stood at the door and hesitated for a long time before cautiously stepping over the threshold with the awareness that he would die.
A voice came from the darkness deep in the room: "What are you doing here?" It was the voice of the Ghost King. He had already guessed the identity of the person who came.
Seeing this, the black shadow no longer hid, gently lifted the hood covering his head, and slowly raised his head.
The moonlight outside the window fell on her face as calm as water. It was Yizhen.
"I, I, I have something to say to you." Yizhen mustered up the courage to speak, but her voice still trembled slightly. After all, the other party was the Ghost King, and just standing in the same space with him made her feel a little breathless. The powerful courage made Yizhen dare not get close, so she could only stand by the door and talk.
"What can we talk about?" the Ghost King in the darkness asked again.
The light in the room was very dim, and you could hardly see your hand in front of you. The Ghost King was sitting in the darkest place. Even if Yizhen tried to open her eyes wide, she could only see a dark shadow. Even the color of his clothes was stained by the night and could not be distinguished clearly.
"You, do you know what happened last night?" His voice was a little hurried due to nervousness.
However, there were only two bland words coming from the other side: "I know."
Yizhen's heart suddenly sank, and it was difficult to continue the conversation. She tried to suppress the trembling of her voice and asked, "What do you want to do?"
"What and how?" Still in that indifferent tone, as if he didn't care at all.
Seeing this, Yizhen made a very bold move. She took a deep breath and walked step by step towards the place where the ghost king was in the depths of darkness.
The further she walked, the stronger the evil spirit became, almost making Yizhen unable to breathe. The ghost king released an aura that threatened her not to get close. Despite this, Yizhen still bravely continued to move forward, and finally came to a place where she could see the ghost king's appearance clearly.
At this time, the two were about five or six steps apart. The moonlight shone through the closed window, emitting a faint white light. With this weak light, Yizhen could see the ghost king's eyes clearly. Because she was looking too hard, Yizhen's eyes flashed red again without her noticing.
The ghost king frowned slightly and asked, "What kind of monster are you?"
Yizhen was so frightened that she trembled slightly and lowered her head quickly, thinking that it must be her eyes that were shining again.
"When I saw you break free after being controlled by the demon in the Demon Temple, I knew you were not an ordinary person. How did you become controlled by the demon? Why were you able to resist his magic and make it?" The calm tone finally added a little more vigilance. Yizhen's sudden approach made the Ghost King alert.
"I once drank a bowl of black water he gave me, and ended up being transformed into this half-human, half-demon form. I was in great pain, but I was able to escape danger many times because of it, otherwise I would have died long ago. Now his body and soul have been destroyed, and he can no longer control me, but the power he gave me still stays with me."
When Yizhen said this, the Ghost King raised his head and looked into her red eyes calmly, as if he had guessed what the "power" she was talking about was.
"Zhao Ji killed the emperor. She would definitely be executed in the human world, but she is a monster and cannot be restrained by human laws. You are the Ghost King, you get to judge whether she should be sent to the Demon Killing Platform this time?" Yizhen stared at the Ghost King. The red light in her eyes became brighter, so bright that most people would feel a stinging pain in their eyes if they looked into her eyes.
The Ghost King frowned and stared at Yizhen without saying a word. The two people's eyes met in the darkness, and there was a fierce collision in silence.
Having said that, Yizhen decided to take it easy and took two steps forward. At this point, she was so close to the Ghost King that she could touch him with her hand. "It was Soji herself who made the rule that monsters should be punished the same as common people. Now that she has broken the precept of killing, if she doesn't sacrifice herself for the crime, wouldn't she be laughed at by all the humans and monsters in the world?"
"You came here tonight just to convince me to execute Zhao Ji?" The Ghost King finally spoke again, narrowing his eyes slightly with a hint of hostility in his eyes.
Yizhen suddenly became nervous, subconsciously covering her pounding heart and said, "Zhaoji herself committed the crime of murder, and she should be executed. I just want to remind you not to protect Zhaoji and make the Demon-Slaying Platform a joke. I don't want you to do anything, I just want you to do nothing and ignore everything."
Having said this, Yizhen concentrated almost all her strength on her eyes. The red light shot towards the Ghost King like a sharp weapon.
If it were anyone else, they would have been screaming by now. But the Ghost King remained indifferent, still staring at Yizhen calmly, with almost no reaction.
Yizhen's heartbeat became faster and faster, and she suddenly realized that her magic had no effect on the Ghost King. She slowly took two steps back, her legs shaking.
At this moment, the Ghost King suddenly grabbed Yizhen's wrist and pulled her in front of him.
Yizhen screamed in fear and struggled desperately like crazy, but the Ghost King's words made her completely frozen.
"I finally understand. Last night you used this third-rate sorcery to control Long Ming and turned him into a fox to attack Zhao Ji at night. Are you sorry?" The Ghost King stared at Yizhen with eyes that could see through everything.
Yizhen's face was pale and bloodless, her lips trembling slightly. She wanted to defend herself but could not utter a word.
Seeing this, the Ghost King was more certain of his countermeasures. The reason why Long Ming suddenly became insane was because Yi Zhen gave him the order to "attack Zhao Ji". Seeing that she had successfully manipulated Long Ming, Yi Zhen wanted to use the same trick again to manipulate the Ghost King. However, Yi Zhen's magic did not work at all on the Ghost King.
"Let me go..." Seeing that her plan had failed, Yizhen just wanted to escape as quickly as possible.
"You just spoke so confidently, but it turns out that you are the murderer. If you don't die today, how can you live up to your human laws?"
With a sneer, the Ghost King suddenly reached out and grabbed Yizhen's neck.
Yizhen was so frightened that her soul left her body. She didn't know where she got the strength from, but she actually broke free from the Ghost King's hands and crawled towards the door.
There was no sound behind him, and the ghost king didn't seem to be chasing him. But a paralyzing pain came from the back of his head where the ghost king was staring.
Yizhen was so scared that she burst into tears. She was extremely frightened and extremely regretful. Her legs were so frightened that she could not use any strength at all. She fell to the ground after running just two steps. In despair, she could not help crying and screaming. At this moment, a very scary demonic aura came from behind her, as if it could pierce the heart.
Yizhen subconsciously turned her head and saw a blue flame coming out from behind the Ghost King.
The ghost king raised his hand, and the flames immediately wrapped around his entire arm. The flames finally transformed into a wolf's head, and the wolf opened its bloody mouth and bit Yizhen. He was merciless and went straight for Yizhen's head. In the blink of an eye, Yizhen's entire head would be bitten off by the wolf.
Yizhen was so scared that she fell to the ground, curled up into a ball.
Just as the wolf's sharp fangs were about to pierce Yizhen's neck, something incredible happened.
A bright white light suddenly burst out from Yizhen's body, driving away the wild wolf. The wild wolf screamed and turned its head to pounce on the ghost king behind it.
The Ghost King didn't expect that the wild wolf he sent out would suddenly turn around and attack him. He couldn't avoid it and was bitten hard on the shoulder.
"You, you..." The Ghost King covered his bleeding shoulder and stared in disbelief at Yizhen who was curled up on the ground and trembling.
Yizhen didn't do anything just now, but in the crisis, a mysterious force did protect her.
This woman is definitely not an ordinary person! The Ghost King was more convinced of this idea. Why she could return to human form after turning into a snake demon seemed to be related to the mysterious power in her body. If she stayed, she would become a big trouble in the future. After a brief shock, the Ghost King immediately decided to get rid of Yizhen as soon as possible.
The power in Yizhen is very powerful and sacred. It is definitely not brought to her by the black water of the evil Taoist, but an innate power.
The Ghost King gathered his strength again, stood up and pounced over, spreading his five fingers to grab at Yizhen's heart.
However, when his fingers just touched Yizhen's body, a strong white light burst out from Yizhen's body again, and that white light directly blew the Ghost King away.
The Ghost King fell to the ground, covered his chest, lowered his head and spat out a mouthful of blood.
There is no demon in the world that can beat him to the point of vomiting blood, and Yizhen is even less capable of doing so. After being stunned for a moment, the Ghost King finally figured out the reason. It was not Yizhen who hurt him, but himself. Yizhen had a power that could bounce back all the magic. The more violent his attack on Yizhen, the more violent the rebound force. Just now, the Ghost King had the intention to kill Yizhen, so after the power was rebounded, he was seriously injured.
Yizhen huddled on the ground with her head in her hands, crying and screaming in fear, not knowing what was going on.
At this moment, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside. The next moment, Ji Anni broke into the house and her legs became stiff with fear after seeing the tragic situation inside.
"What on earth is going on..." His gaze fell on Yizhen and then on the Ghost King.
Ji Anni heard Yizhen's roar and rushed over, but she didn't expect to see Yizhen and the Ghost King lying on the ground, both injured.
After hearing Ji Anni's voice, Yizhen slowly raised her head.
"Yi, Yizhen..." Ji Anni subconsciously opened her arms, trying to help Yizhen up.
But the ghost king suddenly shouted, "Don't touch her!"
Ji Anni was so frightened that she trembled. At this moment, Yizhen got up from the ground, wrapped her cloak tightly, pushed Ji Anni aside and ran out the door.
"Yizhen!" Ji Anni stared at her blankly and wanted to chase after her, but she heard a painful groan from the Ghost King behind her.
After a brief hesitation, Ji Anni turned around and ran towards the Ghost King. When she got closer, she found that the Ghost King was bleeding all over, but had no wounds. This proved that he was not injured by a sharp weapon, but by a witchcraft.
"How could this happen? Are you okay?" Ji Anni squatted down, subconsciously hugged the Ghost King, and used her palm to wipe the blood off his face.
What was going on? How could Yizhen hurt the Ghost King so badly?
"Listen, listen..." The Ghost King ignored his own injuries, grabbed Ji Anni's hand, and said with his last bit of strength, "She, she is..."
Ji Anni opened her eyes wide, waiting for the Ghost King to finish his words. However, the Ghost King's voice suddenly stopped, leaving an eternal suspense, and he gently closed his eyes.
