Chapter 1047 The King’s Curse III
'We...doubt our king's judgment...we stop believing in his decision...we too became arrogant...we forgot who had brought us from the abyss of fear and despair...even a dog wouldn't bite the hand that feed it...but we do...'
"What did you do?" Zhao Li Xin asked again.
"That day we raised our sword towards our King, I lead my brothers and sisters to fight against the Emperor...we slaughtered all those loyal to the emperor every single one of them...including his young wife and Son we used poisoned to weaken our powerful King...but all in vain...our emperor was too strong... as he was enrage he summon the Crimson lightning to killed us all...and then put a curse on us'
"Curse?" Zhao Li Xin's brows furrowed, she hated hearing the word curse the most after what Lory went through as a result of her curse. Zhao Li Xin felt that even after what he had done, he thought there was nothing crueler than a curse.
'The emperor cursed us....to keep our souls alive and trapped in this place...we saw our bodies rotting consumed by maggots and worms...sometime the beast will come then we saw our bodies being torn apart, chewed and spit by the beast...though we felt the anger, the shame, and the pain but nothing we could do but cry -cry and cry...years after years have passed we finally forgotten our name, our family, our beloved...all that remains...is our sin...our curse'
How cruel emperor Zhao Li Xin thought but if it was him, if his subordinates dared to hurt Lory, he would probably do the same perhaps worst, in the end, the betrayal of those closest to you was far more hurtful therefore it cannot be forgiven.
"So what do you want me to do?" Zhao Li Xin knew there must be a reason why this ghost was communicating with him.
'You are the one...who got same heritage...same blood...same power...only you who can set us…free' The voice hinted with hope and joy.
'',
"How?" Zhao Li Xin became curious since Huo long never told him about this.
'The king's fire... the immortal flame... will cleanse evil... it will cleanse our sins... our curse'
Zhao Li Xin's brows shot up, for all he knew his strength was known to be destructive, violent, ruthless, and unrestrained in short this power was very similar to him, Huo Long said there used to be some people who dare to learn this art but unfortunately it always ended tragically, most of them were unable to control the fire which caused them to be devoured with their own flame.
Soon it became a forbidden art because it was a cruel art that could devour the person who possessed it, therefore he never thought that this flame could be used for such a noble purpose.
Zhao Li Xin realized that there were more things that Huo Long was hiding from her that perhaps the old lizard wanted him to find out himself, but for what?
Zhao Li Xin clenched his fist "Show me how!" his eyes glow as he speaks.
'Glowing moss is our curse... it makes us relive our sins again and again without end... soon our hatred, pain, regret, and sorrow accumulate and create that hideous monsters'
Zhao Li Xin shifts his gaze at the skull monster that is still beating his array incessantly and it seems his protective array has reached its limit.
Zhao Li Xin calmly raised from the ground "You want me to burn the monster?"
'Oh, mighty King...please burned this whole place...the moss...the monster...our bones...burned it all!....release us..."
Zhao Li Xin stepped toward the monster soon after the golden flames engulfed his body and the flames grew bigger and bigger until the special robes specially made to resist the fire couldn't take it anymore then slowly burned away meanwhile, the monster finally destroy Zhao Li Xin's protective array.
'Burn everything?' the corners of Zhao Li Xin's lips curled into an evil smile "That's easy"
Zhao Li Xin lunged at the monster while raising his palm and the fire twirled around him at the same time the monster aimed its fist at him, their punches clashed but regardless of the monster's size, he was no match for Zhao Li Xin who attacked with his full power.
Immediately the sound of crackling from the skull fist was loudly heard then the crack ran from the monster's fist to its arm and then moves rapidly to its shoulder and immediately the monster's entire right arm was shattered like glass.
While the monster trying to fix itself Zhao Li Xin took the chance slips behind the monster's back and then jumps into the air then Zhao Li Xin raised both his hands above his head then gather all his flame creating a bolt of fire that makes a hissing sound as it grew bigger and bigger.
Soon the monster feels the scorching heat coming above its head the creature lifts it head and what he sees is a giant bolt of fire falling towards him like a meteor.
The monster did not have time to dodge when the fireball devoured him and shattered his body into shards of fiery embers which then fell on the glowing moss and then instantly burned it, little by little all the moss burned to dust.
'Thank you...Your Majesty'
Zhao Li Xin saw hundreds of transparent figures kowtow in front of him, all of them showing a smile of gratitude slowly one by one they disappeared.
"Wait!" Zhao Li Xin suddenly raised his hand before they all disappeared, "You said Emperor Lei Yu's son had been killed so how could I be his descendant?"
the only ghost that remain stared at Zhao Li Xin profoundly for a moment and smiled saying: 'At the last moment the Empress gave birth prematurely...the baby was too weak - too small that everyone was sure that this baby wouldn't last long, therefore one of the empress personal maids order the wet nurse to took the weak baby in a separate room so that the empress will not witness her baby die before her eyes not long after that the palace is attacked....they all thought the empress's youngest son died...but he didn't...he was taken away by the wet nursed...I forgot her name but I remember her surname is...Qin' as soon as he said the last word, the ghost figure got fainter.
However, there was something about this ghost appearance that looks familiar to him so he ask again one last time "What's your name"
The ghost's smile deepened there was an inexplicable softness in the ghost's empty eyes as he saw Zhao Li Xin 'My name... Sanguan Mu Xi' the next second the ghost had completely vanished.
The place around him became completely silent after everything was scorched to ashes leaving nothing but silence and Zhao Li Xin's desolate figure.
'What comes around, goes around'
That's how the Sanguan family owned a portion of the map of the crimson Lightning sword, and because of that they knew the Qin family might be the last descendants of Emperor Lei Yu though it may take a long time to find the right 'Qin' family, in the end just like his ancestors the Sanguan family killed all Emperor Lei Yu's descendants....again ironically they once again destroyed in his hands as the last descendants of Emperor Lei Yu.
Still part of him has the blood of the sanguan family perhaps that's why he was given the chance to lift the curse on Sanguan's ancestors as one last acted filial piety to his family.
Zhao Li Xin chuckled as he thought of how absurd his life was where greed, hatred, regret, love, and affection mixed between past and present all connected to create a series of fates that he had to go through.
'It will begin again....'

Lazarus read the inscription on the wall and his snake eyes flashed with deep hatred.
"How sad" he taunted "You are all the same, you gave everything for the world but for what?" Lazarus clenched his fists and his lips quivered in utter frustration.
"Have you not given everything for this world, have you not sacrificed everything...is that not enough!" he mutters quietly but then the anger raised inside him then he lay a heavy punch towards the inscription instantly the whole wall crumbles.
"The gods only care about themselves they were like a child playing with ants in the sandbox and we are the ants and this world is the lousy sands box....they had decided our part even before we were born regardless of our consent, our pain!....but no more....no more!" his shoulder begins to trembles not long after a ripple of laughter went through him follow with a wild roar of laughs.
"What did you do?" Zhao Li Xin asked again.
