Chapter 119 The Truth
The princess raised her head fiercely, glared at Zhong Nian Yao, and finally came out of Maqin's body.
However, because Makino's soul had been devoured by the princess, once it left, his body collapsed to the ground. His chest remained motionless, his face pale, like a corpse. And indeed, it was a corpse, for Makino was already dead, reduced to ashes.
Facing the princess's hateful gaze, Zhong Nianyao's expression remained unchanged. She simply glanced at her calmly before speaking, "You'd better control your eyes. Although you're a ghost now, it's not difficult to make you blind. Moreover, if your soul is blind, then even if you are reincarnated, you will be blind for the rest of your life."
Although the tone of voice was very calm, everyone present felt as if a cold wind was blowing over them, giving them goose bumps.
Although she wanted to maintain her pride, she couldn't help but feel scared when she thought about being blind in the future. In the end, she could only retract her gaze, not daring to look at Zhong Nianyao any more.
Although she felt unwilling, she knew that Zhong Nianyao would really do such a thing, and that she really had the ability to do so. Her now vague soul proved this point.
Seeing the princess's performance, Zhong Nianyao nodded with satisfaction, and then spoke, "Okay, tell me! What's going on with you? You should have been dead for many years. Why is your soul trapped in those mermaid tears?"
"It's Pan Yi, he's a pervert." The princess gnashed her teeth in hatred. "Because of him, my entire life has been ruined. Moreover, after my death, he refused to let me go. He actually imprisoned my soul in these mermaid tears and buried my body here with his. All of this makes me feel extremely disgusted."
When these words came out, everyone was shocked. If they didn't know who Pan Yi was when the princess was talking about at the beginning, they knew everything by the end.
That should be the general's name!
However, it now seems that the story between the general and the princess may not be as beautiful as the mural! At least, it now seems that the princess must hate the general to the core.
Afterwards, as the princess continued her story, everyone understood what had happened. It turned out that the situation was completely different from what was described on the mural.
The general had always admired the princess, but the so-called marriage of the princess to the neighboring prince was simply nonsense. The princess and the prince of the neighboring country were not marrying for peace, but for a marriage of alliance. The two of them had already fallen in love with each other before the wedding.
After their marriage, the two of them were deeply in love, living in harmony, and spent a wonderful time together. The neighboring prince was not ambitious. He usually enjoyed wandering around the mountains and rivers, enjoying the company of music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Naturally, he and the princess had similar interests.
Both of them had no ambitions and lived a carefree life even in the royal family. No one regarded them as thorns in their eyes.
If their lives could continue like this, their love story might really become a love story that will be passed down through the ages.
It’s a pity that the general’s psychology became increasingly distorted because he couldn’t get the princess. Especially when he learned that the princess and the prince lived so happily, his heart became even darker.
So he provoked a war between the two countries, and then designed a scheme to send the prince to the battlefield, and finally killed the prince, thinking that he could then take the princess back.
Unexpectedly, after learning that her husband had died in battle, the princess was heartbroken and finally committed suicide for love.
Hearing this news, the general went even crazier. He actually stole the princess's body and invited a master to seal the princess's soul in the mermaid's tears.
Later, he built such a tomb and committed suicide and was buried there with the princess.
As she recounted the story, the princess' eyes flushed red, as if she were crying blood. Hatred overflowed from her eyes. If the general were before her at that moment, she would have fought him to the death.
After listening to the princess's narration, the people in the tomb couldn't help but feel sympathy for her.
Originally, they had a happy family and harmonious marriage, but because of the general's love, they couldn't get it. They did so many things, and in the end, they both died. Moreover, their souls were imprisoned for so many years after death. No wonder they became evil spirits.
"So?" Zhong Nianyao's expression remained unchanged. Although she sighed a little, she didn't show much sympathy. "Now that you're out, what are you going to do? Although you devoured Makin's soul, it was ultimately due to her greed, and it won't have much impact on you. But if you kill these two people, it will be a sin in vain. You will be punished in the underworld, and it will also have a great impact on your reincarnation."
Karma is a cycle, and retribution is inevitable. Everything that everyone does will be recorded in the merit book of the underworld, and it cannot be hidden.
"Do you think I care?" The princess' eyes were still bloodshot. "I've long since lost the ability to reincarnate, and I've never done anything bad in my life. On the contrary, I often provided porridge for the poor, yet I ended up in such a miserable state. Is heaven really fair?"
"The way of heaven is definitely fair." Zhong Nianyao said in a calm tone, "If you are truly as kind as you say you are, then all the suffering you have endured will be compensated for in your future reincarnation."
"What a joke." The princess sneered, "Do you think these words of yours can convince me? Heaven is so unfair to me, why can't I resist!"
As she spoke, the princess's hostility grew even stronger. Her soul, which had seemed somewhat vague due to the injury she had just received from Zhong Nian Yao, began to solidify slowly. Black energy filled her body, and she seemed to be about to go berserk.
Zhong Nianyao couldn't help but frown. She knew very well that if she continued like this, the princess would soon turn into a ghost. Once she turned into a ghost, she would lose all her mind, with only blood and killing in her eyes, becoming a killing machine without any emotion.
At that time, there was no other way but to let her soul fly away.
She didn't really want things to develop to this point. After all, she felt that the princess's life experience was really pitiful.
