Fellow Daoist, your script is really good.

Su Li said she had no doubts, but that was impossible.

But those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who are wearing shoes.

Even if he doesn't agree to her request, over time, unless a miracle happens, he will eventually become a slave to the knife.

Therefore, I have nothing to be afraid of anymore.

Taking a deep breath, Su Li walked up to the long sword.

Su Li gripped the hilt of the long sword.

The moment Su Li grasped the long sword, he felt that it was extremely easy to use.

It's like a friend who has been with you for many years.

And just as Su Li drew the long sword...

An endless black aura tightly enveloped Su Li.

The black aura carried a strong smell of rust.

Su Li felt her consciousness gradually fading, and one strange memory after another was quietly emerging in her mind.

This wasn't her own memory, yet Su Li felt an overwhelming sense of familiarity...

"Could this be a trap? Does the other party want her brother to possess her body, allowing them to resurrect through her body?"

In a daze, Su Li guessed.

But soon, Su Li's last shred of rationality made her shake her head.

This doesn't seem like a possession.

More than anything, it's like an awakening...

The moment Su Li completely lost consciousness, the black aura dissipated.

Su Li was covered in black armor.

The armor was engraved with dragon heads, exuding an aura of solemnity and menace!

Su Li fell backward.

Just as Su Li was about to fall to the ground, the girl caught him and pulled him into her arms.

Gently stroking Su Li's face, the girl smiled, her eyes crinkling.

......

"This is... a famous city?"

Su Li, who had fallen into a coma, slowly opened her eyes in her dream and looked at the palace around her.

This time, Su Li realized that the place she had dreamed about was the capital of the Ghost Clan—Mingdu...

The scene unfolding before my eyes was a direct continuation of my dream from yesterday.

In that long corridor, the prince of the Oni clan shook off his sister's hand and walked forward without looking back.

After her brother left, the princess of the Oni tribe squatted on the ground and cried incessantly.

She cried very sadly.

Su Li had no idea what had happened, nor did she know what the ghost princess was planning to do to her.

However, a man's intuition told him that he had to keep watching.

Besides, if I don't keep watching, I don't know what else to do...

As Su Li's consciousness blurred for a moment, the scene changed again when she came to her senses.

The Oni prince was wiping his sword in his room.

His room was very simply furnished, with a table, a bed, and a few long knives hanging on the wall. Apart from that, there was nothing else; it was extremely simple.

"Your Highness..."

An old man knocked on the door.

"Enter."

The Oni prince put down his sword and slowly began to speak.

An old man entered the room and bowed to the prince of the Oni clan:

"Your Highness, Blood Fiend is finished. It only needs the final step of the process to be completed."

"Say!"

The Oni prince raised his head, suppressing the excitement in his eyes.

For the Oni Clan's crown prince, this longsword, forged over a thousand years and consuming half of the Oni Kingdom's millennia-long resources, might be his last hope!

The old man hesitated, remaining silent for a long time, and instead showed a troubled expression.

"Please feel free to speak."

The prince of the Oni clan spoke calmly.

"Your Highness..."

This final step, which Blood Fiend was supposed to complete, originally required another thousand years.

But now, it's too late.

However, what if a member of the royal bloodline were to become a sword spirit!

In this way, Blood Fiend can be truly complete.

"Snapped!"

No sooner had the old man finished speaking than the demon prince slammed his hand on the bed and stood up angrily:

Do you know what you're saying?!

"Of course I know!"

The old man knelt down and kowtowed.

"This old minister knows that Your Highness and the Princess have a deep affection for each other."

But Your Highness!

The situation is different now.

The Oni clan is in imminent danger!

If this continues, the Oni clan will be wiped out! Your Highness will also suffer misfortune, and the Oni clan will never have a chance to rise again!

But! If Your Highness abandons the princess

The Bloodthirsty Blade is complete!

Your Highness will surely defeat the enemy and lead the Oni clan to revival!

Your Highness! This is not the time for womanly compassion.

Your Highness, please reconsider!

"I am willing to die for my country! I will throw myself into the sword-forging pool!"

"Shut up!" the Oni prince shouted.

"Your Highness!" The old man wanted to say something more.

"I told you to shut up!"

The Oni Clan Prince stepped forward and grabbed the other man by the collar!

Listen carefully!

I don't need that sword!

Don't bring this up again!

Go and destroy that sword!

"Your Highness! You mustn't... This is the only way for the Oni clan to survive..."

"Even without that sword, I, the Crown Prince, can still carve a bloody path through!"

Chapter 513 Hmm, okay.

The Oni prince shouted loudly at the old man in the room, declaring that he would absolutely not sacrifice his sister!

The Oni prince's voice was very loud.

The sound was naturally heard by the girl standing outside the door.

The girl hadn't originally intended to eavesdrop; she had simply cried for a while, calmed down, and wanted to find her brother.

But I never expected to hear about these things.

"Bloodthirsty Blade..."

The girl muttered these three words to herself.

"As long as my life is needed, that blood-stained blade can be forged."

And the older brother can live...

The common people in the capital can also survive...

The girl clasped her small hands tightly to her chest.

At first, the girl was a little scared and hesitant, after all, who isn't afraid of death?

Not to mention she was just a pampered little girl.

But gradually, more and more determination appeared in the girl's eyes!

Just as the girl made up her mind, the door opened, and an old man walked out slowly, looking lost and dejected.

The crown prince rejected the old man's suggestion.

He was worried about the future of the Demon Kingdom.

In the old man's view, so what if the crown prince leads you to cover the rear with the army?

Of the entire imperial city, how many members of the Oni clan could possibly escape?

Moreover, how could Princess, who has been pampered since childhood, possibly be qualified to lead the restoration of the Demon Kingdom?!

The old man knew that his thinking was wrong.

However, he was willing to sacrifice the princess so that His Highness the Crown Prince could stay!

Aside from being a bit too idealistic, His Highness the Crown Prince is both brave and resourceful, and is the foundation of the nation!

However, he had no choice but to obey the Crown Prince's orders. If His Highness disagreed, he had no way to take that final step.

"Grandpa Ma..."

As the old man sighed and walked back after leaving the palace, a young girl's voice called out from behind him.

"Your Highness."

The old man bowed to the young girl.

"Grandpa Ma..."

The girl gripped her skirt tightly with her small hands, looking nervously at the old man in front of her.

"Was everything Grandpa Ma told his brother true?"

"If only my life were spared, once the Blood Demon is forged, could it truly save my brother?"

The old man's eyes flickered at the girl's words. Looking at the princess's innocent appearance, the old man, who was called Grandpa Ma, felt guilty for his earlier thought of sacrificing her.

Even the old man understood why His Highness the Crown Prince was hesitant to make a decision.

Whether it's this princess or the million people in the city.

They all have the right to choose to live. They are all innocent. Who would want to die?

"Your Highness has misheard."
