《Dark Lord》Chapter 40

Advertisement

Standing in a dark room, a candle flickered, brushing light upon the figure of a haggard man. That man's eyes were bloodshot, as if he had spent days awake. His eyes looking towards the coffin lying in the room, a figure laying upon it.

Suddenly, that man smiled, a crazy smile while looking at the figure in the coffin.

"He's back, he's finally back after so long. Now I can get my revenge, now I can personally destroy him using you. Years and years I spent trying to protect your body just for the sole purpose of using you against him. I waited twenty years to get my revenge, and now he's finally back. If only you were awake, you would protect him just like you once had. But you can't. Now, I have power over you, and now, I will use you to achieve my goal."

The man walked towards the coffin, gently retouching the robe on the figure's body, his face wild and crazy. As he stared at the figure, he wanted so much to destroy that body but for the sake of his revenge, he didn't do it.

It won't be too long, just a little more. A little more time and he should have complete control of that man, a little more time and that man will be his most loyal subordinate. And he will use that man to destroy the Dark Lord. He will use his only weakness against him, he will watch as that man die a horrible death knowing that the person who killed was his most dearest.

And he, himself, will laugh as he watch the death of the Dark Lord before sending that man to follow him in the afterlife.

It was a plan that he had made, carefully changing it for the last twenty years awaiting the return of the Dark Lord. Now, he will destroy him once and for all.

Ru Lian bowed down on the ground, her body heavy with wounds as she begged for her life.

"Please, let me go! I have done you no wrong, I am just a weak woman struggling to survive in this world. Please, let me go." She banged her head on the grounds, blood flowing down from the wound.

She didn't even know how she was captured, she just knew that she was going to die before she was able to kill that wretched prince who had betrayed her, stealing her child and then banishing her to a land unknown. If she died now, she wouldn't be able to make that wicked prince accompany her.

She had done everything for that man, she should be the one by his side. She should be the crown princess, she should be the next empress. She hated her mother and her father for giving birth to her. She never wanted such a poor life, she was suppose to have been born to a noble family, powerful and rich. She should be living in riches, not living a life with nothing.

It was all because of that wicked man. He had entered the prince's heart, destroying all of her hard work. It was because of him that she was pushed to the extreme, having to put the life of her child at risk. Everything was his fault, everything was the prince's fault for betraying her love for him. They were the ones who had done the wrong things, she was the right one.

She was the one who should have rose as a supreme being above everyone. Everything that she wanted should have been hers, everything.

"Do you want to live?" RuJin, smirked, his eyes peering deep into Ru Lian's soul.

"Please, immortal being. Please, let me go." Ru Lian needed to live, but, if she was able to capture this powerful man's heart, would he be able to take revenge for her? She suddenly smiled. Yes, she was beautiful, no one could resist her, he wouldn't be able to either.

"Please, I will give you whatever you want. I will be a slave for you, and if you want, I will give you this body of mine." Ru Lian looked up, her face softened with fresh tears. A blush appeared on her face as she reached towards the front of her dress, untying it to show her chest.

On her feet now, she got closer to him. Seeing that he wasn't making a move to stop her, she smiled. Of course, her body was enchanting, this man will be hers, this powerful man will be groveling for her, and will do anything for her. That was how the story was suppose to go, she will rise amongst everyone. Then she would get her revenge.

Ru Lian reached for his arm, but before she could touch him, she screamed.

RuJin peered back with cold eyes, staring at Ru Lian who was crying with pain as she grasped her bleeding arm.

"You wanted to seduce me? But it's a shame that only one person has my heart, and that person isn't lowly like you." RuJin's eyes got colder, the area surrounding him seemed to produce a dark, dangerous tension.

Before Ru Lian could say anything, she screamed once more. Her body began spurting blood, her skin began splitting itself apart, and her face began to melt.

"No!!"

As RuJin watched her, his eyes contained no feelings. He had no sympathy for such a greedy person, she was crazy and a lunatic. He would've given her a more peaceful death had she not try such a dirty things towards her him.

When her body fell at last, RuJin summoned a clasp of dark energy, sending it towards her dead body. The dark energy surrounded her for close to thirty seconds before disappearing, her body was gone and only a patch of bones were left remaining.

RuJin turned to leave.

No one else but ShuYan would be able to move his heart. No one.

Xi Yu looked carefully at the woman before her. She could've swore that she had saw her before. She looked like Jin, could it be possible?

She needed to try her luck. If Xi Yu was correct, this would be Jin's sister, the one that would protect him no matter what.

"You are Jin's sister, aren't you?" Xi Yu asked that woman after chasing her into a hidden place, away from other people.

"Who are you?!" Mo Xin turned back, taking a defensive stance.

"You are Mo Xin, you are Jin's oldest sister." Xi Yu said once more, this time, she was sure that her guess was correct.

"What are you planning to do?" Mo Xin looked at Xi Yu with suspicious eyes, unsure who this woman before her was.

"I am Jin's old friend, I'm looking for him so I thought you were to. You are trying to protect him, aren't you?" Xi Yu asked, seeing Mo Xin's face turn into relief.

"You are looking for him too, that means that I can trust you." Mo Xin knew that Jin wouldn't trust someone who couldn't be trusted. Plus, this woman before her didn't not have any malicious intentions, Mo Xin could tell from within her eyes that stared at her.

"I am Xi Yu. I know where he is, please, follow me. I know that this is sudden, I know that you think I will betray you, but like you, I want to protect him. So join me. Join me to find him, and to protect him."
