Dragon Clan: There is the Lord of the Black Dragon in the Body

The two finally arrived at the third stone monument - Penglai Island!

Penglai Island, a mysterious place, is said to be the place where immortals live. The clouds and mist here make you feel like you are in a fairyland. The forest is dense and the lush trees are intertwined together, forming a quiet world. Moss covers the ground softly, like a natural carpet, adding a bit of softness and warmth to the land. The singing of birds that comes from time to time adds a bit of vitality to this land.

Shuixiang and Mi Qing, led by the men in black robes, walked through the dense forests. They walked along the winding path, sometimes crossing clear streams, and sometimes hiding from the sun's heat under towering trees. In this mysterious land, they felt unprecedented tranquility and peace, as if they were in an isolated fairyland.

After a difficult trek, Mi Qing finally stopped breathing. He looked at the empty space in front of him, his eyes full of joy. In the center of the open space, a huge stone tablet stood there, with ancient words engraved on it, emitting a faint light.

"We're finally here." Mi Qing said with emotion.

Shuixiang was also very excited. He approached the stone tablet and gently touched its cold surface.

And the man in black robe has already been waiting for you!

The man in black robe slowly took off his hood, revealing a haggard and old face. There was a hint of exhaustion and deep sadness in his eyes, as if he had endured too much pain and torture.

"I am already dead," the man in black robe said, his voice hoarse and low. "This is just my remnant that remains in the world. I once committed an unforgivable crime and caused great harm to this land and people. .My name is Evil Shadow, and now I have paid the price and died in the disaster I created."

Hearing this, Shuixiang and Mi Qing couldn't help but be stunned. This man in black robe turned out to be the remnants of a dead person? They were somewhat unable to understand the situation before them.

Xieying continued: "I realized my mistake before I died, but it is irreversible. I hope that through my death, this land and people can get a little peace. This is the only compensation I can make."

Shuixiang and Mi Qing looked at each other, and couldn't help but feel a complex emotion in their hearts. This man in black robes who once committed crimes is now seeking atonement with his own death, which makes them think more deeply about human nature.

"Although you are dead, we still need to ensure that your remnants will not cause harm again." Mi Qing said slowly, "Can you tell us what exactly you did?"

Xieying nodded and began to talk about the crimes he had committed. He was once a powerful warlock, but his pursuit of greater power led him to go astray. He studied forbidden arts and tried to control life and death, but ultimately caused an uncontrollable disaster. Countless lives were lost in this disaster, and the evil shadow also paid its own life.

After listening to Xie Ying's story, Shuixiang and Mi Qing couldn't help but feel a sigh of relief. They realized that this seemingly ruthless man in black robe actually had deep regret and pain hidden in his heart. Perhaps it was precisely because of this pain that he chose to seek relief in this way.

After learning about Xie Ying's experience, Shuixiang and Mi Qing gradually became less wary of him. They realized that the remnants of this dead man could no longer pose any threat to them. And everything he did was just to make up for the crimes he had committed as much as possible.
