I laughed and said, "You killed him, didn't you? After he taught you the Changsheng Gong, you thought you had obtained the only evil skill in the world and wanted to keep it secret for yourself, so you killed him, right?"
King Mingyou's face turned pale. I pressed on: "Looking at your expression...it seems I guessed right."
"You only guessed half right..." King Mingyou suddenly sighed sadly and said, "Indeed, I killed him, but I didn't do it because I wanted to keep the Changsheng Gong secret and keep it to myself. Instead... Back then, I wanted to practice this Changsheng Gong with my beloved princess, but he said that this Changsheng Gong was not suitable for women. Because women have yin bodies, and Changsheng Gong is also yin, if a woman practices this, she will suffer from double yin syndrome, becoming extremely weak and dying in a few days, let alone being confined in a coffin for hundreds or thousands of years. How could I believe it? I secretly practiced the Changsheng Gong method with my princess, waiting to enter the blood corpse field after it was completed. But... that stinky old guy actually tricked my princess out and hid her without my knowledge. In a fit of rage, I killed him..."
I was stunned. Was what he said true or false? Holy shit, why did it sound so real? If it was true, then could this so-called longevity skill really exist? That couldn't be possible, right?
"Did you find your princess later?" I asked curiously.
King Mingyou shook his head and said sadly, "I searched the entire city but couldn't find her... At that time, the princes were fighting openly and secretly for the throne. I never liked competing with others for things, but I was afraid of suffering an unexpected disaster. When the other princes pointed their swords at me, I resolutely left the palace. By then, the bloody and corpse-filled ground had already been created in the mausoleum I had built privately. I entered the mausoleum alone and placed the Ming Taizu Sword-Testing Stone, which had been sent here long ago, as a tombstone to block the entrance and exit. I couldn't leave, and no one else could come in."
I said with some sympathy, "And then, in despair, you sealed your coffin in a field of blood and corpses, imprisoned there for over five hundred years?"
King Mingyou nodded: "That's right, if you hadn't broken in and pulled me out of the land of blood and corpses, I wouldn't have woken up so early!" When he said this, he suddenly became furious: "This is too hateful, I will send you to hell now!" His sharp claws grabbed me fiercely.
Holy shit! How can he change his attitude faster than turning the pages of a book! It frightened me so much that my scalp went numb. I quickly used the Seven Star Sword to block it, but his sharp and hard claws suddenly grabbed the sword, and the sword suddenly bent down at a speed visible to the naked eye, almost breaking my Seven Star Sword!
I was scared to death, but luckily this Seven Star Sword is flexible enough and will not break even if it is bent 180 degrees.
The Seven Star Sword was fine, but I was. My whole body was numb, and I sat down on the ground, unable to stand up. Seeing me like this, King Mingyou extended his claws with a smirk and said, "You've told me all my past. Now go down and accompany my princess!"
Sharp claws stretched out towards me, like the god of death.
At this moment, a rope swung down from overhead and, with a snap, wrapped around King Mingyou's neck. King Mingyou's attention was completely focused on me, and he didn't react at all to what was happening. A sharp cry came from behind him, and then the rope around King Mingyou's neck spun and knotted rapidly.
In the darkness, only the whirring sound of ropes could be heard, as if countless sharp whips were slapping the air. In the blink of an eye, King Mingyou was bound from head to toe. At the same time, the madam strolled up from behind and said with a smile, "Not bad, handsome boy! I didn't expect your acting skills to be so good that you almost fooled me."
"Don't say that, Madam. I just want to cooperate with you. Look, didn't he fall into the trap? The cooperation between you and me is perfect." I chuckled, stood up, patted the dust off my body, and looked relaxed.
King Mingyou saw that I could still stand up, and seemed not to have suffered any harm at all, not even the feeling of being numb and unable to move as before!
"How come you...are fine?" King Mingyou looked at me in disbelief.
