[Comprehensive] Daughter of Darkness

The people in the royal city learned two terrible news within one day.

One is that the two groups of nobles and ministers in the palace were slaughtered completely, and the other is that a vampire who claimed to be the ghost king declared himself king and announced that the Joseon Dynasty would have him to continue to rule.

As a vampire, yet he wanted to rule over human beings, which caused most people to panic, and some people spread everywhere that the end of the ghost king was coming, and Jin Shenglie had found a way to kill the ghost king.

"Oh~" The ghost king who heard the news sat leaning on the throne, as if he didn't pay attention to it at all, "How to kill me? I want to hear what people say outside?"

Master Cui, who was kneeling in front of him, quickly said: "It's all rumors...it's not credible at all."

The half-closed eyes of the Ghost King opened suddenly, and a forceful aura crushed the kneeling man.

"Tell me, I want to hear it too." As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Huiling who was standing on the other side, "You want to know too, the way to kill me."

Huiling looked blank, as if she didn't hear what he said at all.

Ever since she witnessed the death of her grandson, she seemed to have lost her soul.

"According to folk rumors, it is said that the son of Zong Xian left a record hundreds of years ago. It records that if you want to kill the ghost king, you need to rely on the power of the legendary black-clothed empress..."

"Wait..." The ghost king sat up, bent down, and made a "come forward" movement with his hand to Mr. Cui.

Lord Cui walked up to the Ghost King on his knees, his whole body trembling like chaff.

Talking to the Ghost King at such a close distance would scare anyone.

Especially those who have been with him for many years and know him best.

"You just said... whose power do you want to rely on?" Ghost King put his hand on his shoulder and whispered in his ear.

A drop of sweat dripped from Master Cui's forehead, and he said hastily: "The Empress in Black is just a legend, maybe...maybe it doesn't exist at all."

"Who says she doesn't exist?" Ghost King said a little displeased, he looked at the sword in his hand, and said with nostalgia, "She and I are old friends who haven't seen for a long time... I miss her in the Nothing has changed in hundreds of years."

"Oh, my king..." Master Cui said, "Then you must have a way to deal with her, and I don't have to worry about you anymore. This is my king's luck and the world's luck."

"Go on." The ghost king leaned back on the throne, signaling Huiling to come forward.

Huiling walked up silently, and the Ghost King wiped the sword on Huiling's clothes.

Master Cui, who turned a blind eye to this, continued: "It is said that when the black-clothed empress reappears, she will hold a sword in her hand and end the ghost king's... brutal rule with her own hands when the sun is waxing and the moon is waning."

"It seems that everyone thinks I'm cruel, Aiqing, do you think I'm cruel?" Ghost King asked with great interest.

"No, I think these are the slander of Jin Shenglie and those villains on the king. In my eyes, you are a seldom-seen virtuous king..."

"Okay." Ghost King interrupted Master Cui impatiently, "I'm not the same as those vulgar kings, I don't like to hear these words."

"I understand." Master Cui said with his head bowed.

"Is it the day when the sun waxes and the moon wanes? That means she's finally coming back..."

At the same time, Jin Shenglie and others were also planning something.

"The day of the sun's full moon and the moon's waning will be tomorrow, we have to prepare early." Jin Shenglie said to everyone.

"Do we really want to believe in an illusory legend?" One of them asked with some doubts, "What would we do if the lady in black didn't come that day?"

"I am determined to make two preparations. One is to take back the sword from the ghost king, and then wait for the arrival of the black empress. The second is to plant explosives around the underground palace. If the black empress does not come, we will Light the explosives and let the sun burn the Ghost King to death."

"Lie'er is right." An old man with scars all over his face came out and carried a coffin, and said to everyone.

"Master." Everyone saluted the old man.

"Lie'er, I brought you something, you must need it."

After all, the old man put the coffin on the ground.

"Master, this is..."

"Didn't you say you need a lady in black? I brought her here."

The coffin board fell to the ground, and a puppet appeared in front of everyone.

She folded her hands on her chest and closed her eyes tightly, as if she was asleep.

"Her name is Anne." The old man said, "I have dealt with her hundreds of years ago."

As a half-human, half-vampire, the old man still remembers what happened back then.

"I used to like her when I was young." The old man blinked his glasses, and everyone burst into laughter.

"Don't look at me now. When I was young, I was very handsome. The girls in the village liked me very much, and they all called me Mr. Fenggu." The old man said.

It is said that on this day, the sun's light is several times stronger than in previous days, and the light of the moon is much dimmer than in previous days.

The strength of all nocturnal creatures will be greatly weakened.

Feng Gu led Jin Shenglie and others to the palace with the coffin, and they became extremely weak under the sun's rays.

Fortunately, their mission has been completed, explosives have been planted around the underground palace, and they are waiting for the empress in black to return to her body.

At this time, the ghost king who was sitting on the throne in the underground palace was excited. He specially changed into the king's court clothes and sat upright, waiting for someone to return.

"White-haired ghost! Do you still remember the old man?" An angry shout came from outside the underground palace.

"Who are you?" Ghost King asked with a lack of interest.

"Do you still remember the name Fenggu?" The old man and Jin Shenglie and his party filed in.

"Bone of character..." Ghost King sat on the throne thinking, as if looking for this name in his memory.

After a while, he suddenly realized: "It's you, you're not dead yet?"

"Back then, because of a coincidence, the old man became a half-human, half-vampire existence, so he has survived until now." Feng Gu said.

"Then shall we continue the unfinished duel?" Ghost King said with a smile.

"Although I really want to kill you with my own hands, the person who cleaned you up today is not me, but her."

The person in the coffin came out slowly, her voice, appearance and appearance were no different from hundreds of years ago.

The ghost king walked towards the man with an affectionate look.

"Annie...hundreds of years...you have kept me waiting too long."

"So... do you want to make a wish to me?" Annie said.

Just like the conversation between the two when they first met, the ghost king replied with a smile: "I want to make a wish."

"Do you know the price of wish fulfillment?" Annie asked.

"Of course I know, it's nothing more than death." The ghost king said softly, "During these hundreds of years, without you, I would live in hell every day."

"Tell me your wish," said Anne.

The ghost king stepped forward to hug Annie, closed his eyes and said, "I want to be with you forever."

"Do you trust me? Do you believe that I can make your wish come true?" Annie asked.

"I believe." Ghost King said.

"Then give me that sword." Annie said.

The ghost king broke away from Annie's arms, then walked to the side of the throne without hesitation, and handed the sword to Annie.

Annie held the sword in her hand and looked at the other party, "Close your eyes."

The ghost king was still obedient and closed his eyes.

Annie directly pierced the ghost king with a sword.

The ghost king suddenly opened his eyes, looking at Annie full of doubts and incomprehension.

"I returned this sword to you, master." Annie said with a smile.

"You...Mingxi?" Ghost King said thoughtfully.

"Do you believe me? Do you believe that I can fulfill your wish?" Anne asked again.

"I believe." Ghost King said.

"Then sleep peacefully, when you wake up again, you will see me, and your wish will come true."

"it is good."

The ghost king closed his eyes, and his whole body turned into flying ash.

The only proof that he ever existed was that little black fragment.

Annie put the fragments into her arms and kept them alive.

"That's half done."
