The swordsmith held the sword with both hands, his eyes wide open, and veins protruding on his forehead.
"Prince Yang...you killed me...who...continues to forge swords..."
Long Yang's eyes were filled with bloodthirsty light, and he whispered with a ferocious smile.
"I forged the magic sword not to protect the country and my family, nor to protect the country and the people, but to protect my sister!"
"Hahaha, if it comes at the cost of hurting Princess Aoi, I don't have to give up this magic sword!"
As he spoke, Long Yang strangled the swordsmith's neck with his left hand.
"In the past two years, you have worked hard to forge swords for me and put in countless efforts and sweat. I have never doubted your loyalty."
"Actually, even if the sword-making fails, I will not take my anger out on you. Instead, I will give you money and send you away."
"I prepared three boxes of belongings for you yesterday. I wanted to give them to you personally, but I didn't come because the sword-making workshop was restricted."
"So, you don't know what happened yesterday."
"You don't know the news from the outside world, let alone the changes in Jiang State, but you conclude that Yang State broke into the city."
"How ridiculous!"
Long Yang slowly closed his eyes, and suddenly tightened his left hand, causing the swordsmith's neck bones to crack with a crack.
Seeing this scene through the space passage, Xi Tong couldn't help but think deeply.
If the swordsmith dies, the magic sword will not be born, and Nightshade will not die with the sword.
So, how does the story unfold?
How should the mastermind’s plan continue?
…
A woman in palace clothes appeared at Nightshade's residence.
The inmate was about to ask, but he saw the woman wave her hand. A confused look appeared on the inmate's face, and his body slumped on the rockery.
The woman casually made a few magic spells, and a few black smoke flew in all directions, and all the palace maids and servants fell into a strange sleep.
After doing all this, the woman knocked on Nightshade's door.
"Auntie, you..."
"Princess Kui, something bad has happened. Yang State has attacked the city."
Long Kui originally wondered why her aunt would come here at this time. Didn't she always come at night in the past?
Moreover, the servants outside the door did not even say anything.
However, the woman pushed them in and closed the door without giving Nightshade any time to think.
"Princess Kui, your Majesty was awake when I served you today."
Nightshade was happy in her heart. Her father had been in coma for two years and finally woke up today.
Great, really great.
At that moment, Nightshade had the urge to cry with joy.
"Auntie, did your father say anything? Did you ask about me?" Long Kui clenched her fists happily, turned around and walked out, "I want to see my father..."
The woman shook her head and said solemnly: "Princess Kui, you cannot go to see His Majesty. On the contrary, you have to pretend not to know the news."
"Why?"
"Because..." The woman hesitated to speak. After being pressed repeatedly by Nightshade, she hesitated and said, "Your father is unconscious because of the poison cast by the prince's sun."
ah?
Like a bolt from the blue, Nightshade's mind went blank.
She did not expect that her father was not ill due to overwork, but was framed by her brother.
The corner of the woman's mouth raised a slight arc, "There is also my sister (Lang Kui's mother). She has seen the clues a long time ago, but she was intimidated by Tai Ziyang's lust and did not dare to tell the truth."
"If you think about it carefully, after my sister fell ill, did Tai Ziyang stay close to her bedside every day? Every time you visited, he was always with you and never let you be alone together?"
Nightshade thought about it carefully, and it seemed that this was really the case.
I used to think that my brother was a pure and filial brother who would stay in front of the bed all day long, but I didn’t expect...
The woman felt that the fire was almost done, so she said: "Tai Ziyang has become obsessed with evil. He spends all day studying things with chaotic powers, ghosts and gods, and even forging magic swords. He..."
Wiping away her tears, the woman's voice sounded like she was crying.
"He was only thinking about forging a magic sword, using the power of the magic sword to kill everyone and take revenge, but he didn't mention the price of forging the magic sword."
Solanum sat down on the stool weakly, supported the edge of the table and asked: "What price?"
The woman gritted her teeth and said, "Nine virgins, 99 boys and girls, 999 warriors of tigers and wolves, and 9999 common people, died together."
Nightshade seems to have been hit hard.
She didn't expect that her brother was refining such an evil weapon.
Before, Long Kui only felt that her brother was not doing his job properly and was thinking about some unrealistic fantasies all day long, so he wanted to rush into the sword-making workshop many times, knock down the furnace and destroy the tools.
But I didn't expect that my brother would be so ambitious and determined.
The blood and lives of tens of thousands of creatures have indeed resulted in the death of tens of thousands of bones!
Thinking again of yesterday's brother's majestic appearance when he said, "Swipe your sword to cut through the floating clouds, and all the princes will come to the west." Nightshade felt like nauseating.
Everything is a lie!
Seeing the flowers in the hall again, Nightshade felt like dead bones in a grave, exuding blood and rotten stench.
Sensing the owner's unhappiness, the sunflower shook its head at the nightshade and waved its leaves awkwardly.
However, the owner ignored it and even looked at it coldly.
A frustrated expression appeared on Sunflower's face, and then she seemed to think of something and her body trembled slightly.
Huh……
The woman looked at the sunflower in surprise. She was about to ask the name and origin of the flower, but something changed suddenly.
The sunflower's body twitched violently, spraying out balls of golden sunlight.
Nightshade subconsciously stretched out her fingers to catch the light falling down like snowflakes.
My hands felt warm, and the gloom in my heart was swept away.
The sun fell on the woman, but it was like splashing sulfuric acid, making a sizzling sound, white smoke curling up, and miserable screams heard endlessly.
Under Nightshade's disbelieving gaze, the woman's well-maintained skin turned blue-purple, with scales like fish scales still on it.
When the white smoke dissipated, the originally beautiful face became ferocious, twisted and ugly.
This...what's going on...
Nightshade stood up in surprise.
She couldn't imagine that this good aunt who often visited her quietly and chatted with her to relieve her boredom was actually a ferocious monster.
The woman looked at her eagle-claw-like palms, her cold inverted triangular eyes full of pain.
She doesn't want to see her true face.
Unfortunately, the sunlight emitted by the sunflower exposed her disguise.
"Now that I'm exposed, I can only use force!"
The monster's voice was deep and hoarse, and no longer had the smooth sound it had just now.
Sunflower shook its big head and stood in front of Nightshade, but was slapped away by the monster. The flowerpot hit the wall and was shattered into pieces.
Nightshade retreated step by step, and soon pressed against the wall.
"No, don't come over..."
The monster raised its hand, black light filled the air, and Nightshade lost consciousness instantly.
"Damn it! This human skin of mine, the work I spent a long time on, is destroyed in your hands! I want you to die!"
The sharp claws pressed against the back of Nightshade's head.
The knuckles were tightly tensed, and the strength accumulated and condensed in them, as if they were about to explode at any time.
But at this time, a strange buzzing sound rang out, and the monster immediately grunted, fell to its knees on the ground, covered its head and begged for mercy in fear.
"My little one is wrong. I don't dare to do it anymore. Please forgive me for my life!"
"I also asked the immortal to collect my magical powers. I'll do it right now!"
With that said, the monster grabbed Nightshade and broke out of the window, running straight towards the sword-making workshop.
