When Feng Ling heard this, her heart skipped a beat. She asked anxiously, “Where’s my guardian?”

That person smiled and said, “Priestess Feng, you forgot that only you can enter the divine pool. Guardian Feng can only wait at the foot of the mountain.”

That meant Feng Lan was perfectly fine.

Feng Ling frowned and asked, “Have you forgotten what happened in April?”

“April?”

That person thought for a while and said with a puzzled expression, “Priestess Feng, besides a flood that happened in April and was resolved by you and His Majesty, nothing else happened.”

Feng Ling clenched her fists. She didn’t want to ask anymore.

The truth was right in front of her. Everything they had found about Feng Lan had been wiped out.

Feng Ling closed her eyes and put away all her emotions. However, when she opened her eyes again, she realized that she couldn’t control her body anymore.

——

A sharp sword pierced through Feng Ling’s body from behind. Feng Ling slowly turned around. When she saw Feng Lan, who looked exactly like her but had a sinister expression at this moment, her angel-like face revealed shock and disbelief.

“Feng Lan, you actually…”

“Sister, if it weren’t for you, the position of High Priestess would have been mine. So, go to hell!” Feng Lan watched as a large amount of blood surged out of Feng Ling’s body and laughed maniacally.

After laughing, she glared at her with red eyes and said in a vengeful tone, “We’re obviously twins. Why can you be chosen as the successor of the High Priestess since you were young? How am I weaker than you? Just because you were born a few minutes earlier than me?”

The shock in Feng Ling’s eyes disappeared. As she watched a large amount of blood gush out of her chest, she knew that Feng Lan’s sword was an ancient divine artifact. She couldn’t save herself even if she wanted to, let alone now when she was at her weakest before succeeding the High Priestess.

However, to die at the hands of her own sister, a trace of sadness flashed across Feng Ling’s eyes.

When Feng Lan saw the sadness in Feng Ling’s eyes, the smile on her face became even more carefree. Then, a red glow flashed across her eyes.

“Go to hell. As long as you die, the position of High Priestess will be mine. I will be the most respected woman in the ‘Phoenix Skies’ country. When the time comes, I will be the one to marry the king, haha!”

Looking at the crazy woman in front of her who suddenly felt very unfamiliar, Feng Ling’s heart slowly turned cold.

At this moment, she suddenly revealed a mocking smile at Feng Lan. “My good sister, do you think you’re really capable of being a High Priestess?”

“What do you mean?”

“Look…” Feng Ling raised her slender finger and pointed at this divine pool, and her face became calm.

The entire divine pool emitted white light spots.

Feng Lan was stunned at first, then she thought of something and finally revealed a frightened expression. “What’s going on? Feng Ling, what did you do?”

“What did I do? My good sister, you should only know that my powers are the weakest before succeeding the High Priestess, but you don’t know what fate is… Do you think you can live after I die?”

As soon as Feng Ling finished speaking, a white light appeared. The entire temple was enveloped by countless more intense light spots, and their bodies disappeared at the same time.

At this moment, the king standing on the altar suddenly raised his handsome face that was like that of a god. His gaze was sharp as he looked in the direction of the divine pool, but a trace of panic flashed across the depths of his pupils.

The High Priestess suddenly let out a sad cry. “Oh no, something has happened to Ling’er. Those light spots are Ling’er’s priest power. Once the priest power dissipates, Ling’er will be reduced to ashes.”

Pfft!

A mouthful of blood spurted out of the king’s mouth.

Then, everyone watched in horror as the king’s hair instantly turned from black to white.

The head butler standing behind him said in fear, “Your Majesty, what’s wrong?”

He said to the High Priestess in a low voice that was filled with suppressed pain, “I order you to seal the entire sacrificial hall immediately.”

“Erm…”

The king quickly exuded a world-destroying murderous aura. He roared at her, “How dare you disobey my orders.”

The High Priestess was actually shocked by the king’s red eyes. She was also heartbroken, so she only thought for a while before nodding at him and saying, “I can’t seal it alone. Someone with special abilities has to seal it with me.”

When the king heard this, he shouted down the stage, “Men with supernatural powers, come up and cooperate with the High Priestess immediately.”

At this moment, the aura on the king was too domineering and terrifying. The civil and military officials below the stage fell silent. The men with supernatural powers standing at the side hurriedly ran up.

The High Priestess immediately started the ritual.

Instantly, the winds and clouds changed drastically. The dissipating light spots quickly stopped moving, and the entire sacrificial hall began to be sealed.

After a while, the High Priestess shouted at everyone, “Everyone, leave this place quickly. The sacrificial hall will be sealed soon. Otherwise, everyone will be sealed inside.”

Just as the seal was about to reach the altar, the prime minister, who had finally come back to his senses, scrambled up to pull the king. “Your Majesty, we have to leave this place immediately, or you will be sealed inside too!”

The king looked at him with those red eyes. The ruthlessness in them scared the prime minister out of his wits.

“Get lost!”

The king waved his arm and the prime minister’s body flew down the sacrificial altar like a rag doll.

Everyone standing below the sacrificial platform was scared out of their wits. Just as they were feeling extremely anxious, a figure quickly flashed over from the side.

Before everyone could react, that figure had already used Qinggong to arrive behind the king and knocked him out with a knife. Only then did everyone see that that person was actually the Grand General who had been recuperating at home.

The Grand General slung the dynasty over his shoulder and shouted at everyone, “Everyone, leave this place immediately.”

With that, he carried the king and left.

Feng Ling looked at the king who had been carried away and tears flowed down her face uncontrollably. When she wanted to wipe the tears off her face, she realized that she was just a transparent body.

She was a little anxious. Why hadn’t she awakened Yan’s memory after everything that had happened to her? And also, what exactly did the king do after that?

Just as Feng Ling thought until here, her soul seemed to be sucked in by something. Before she could cry out in surprise, she had already arrived in the imperial study.

At this moment, a white-haired king was marking the memorials. In front of him were a few important ministers kneeling.

The prime minister was extremely anxious. “Your Majesty, you should rest. You’ve already been reading the memorials for three days and three nights. If this continues, your body won’t be able to withstand it.”

The king looked up at him, his eyes cold. “Get lost.”

The prime minister and the other ministers trembled. Even though they were frightened by the king’s aura, no one stood up to leave.

No one said anything. The king stopped looking at them and continued to study the memorials.

Seeing as how the Kingdom of Phoenix Skies enjoyed peace and prosperity under the king’s rule, one could see that his ability and means were unrivalled by the kings of the other countries.

The current him was shockingly efficient. It was as if he wanted to deal with everything in the next few decades in a few days.

At the thought of this, all the ministers broke out in a cold sweat.

Feng Ling was also anxious.

She floated to the king’s side and said to him loudly, “Jingzhou, do you want to die? This is suicide!”

At this moment, the king suddenly tilted his head and looked over.

Feng Ling froze, having the illusion that the king could see her.

At this moment, the king pushed the dozens of memorials in front of him to the side and said, “I’m tired.”

The ministers were delighted.

The king stood up and walked out of the study.

Feng Lan’s divine sense followed him and the two of them arrived at the Hundred Flower Garden.

The king sat alone in the pavilion and didn’t let anyone approach.

For the next period of time, the king returned to his previous state where he went to work as needed and rested when necessary.

However, only Feng Ling knew that the king had secretly sent people to build the mausoleum beside the sacrificial hall day and night.

Autumn passed and spring came again.

One day, the king announced at the morning court:

“Phoenix Skies Dynasty will be inherited by Grand General Fang Yao.”

When everyone heard this, their expressions changed drastically.

“Your Majesty, you mustn’t!”

“I’ve made up my mind on this matter. Fang Yao, stay behind. Everyone else, leave.”

After the ministers left, the general, who had been silent all this time, finally revealed a furious expression.

He knelt on one knee and refused in a low voice, “Your Majesty, I don’t accept this throne.”

The king stood up and walked up to him. He looked him in the eye and said, “This matter isn’t up to you.”

After saying that, he started coughing.

The Grand General suddenly stood up from the ground with a look of rejection in his eyes. “I command war and have no idea how to govern a country.”

The king pointed at the mountains of memorials on the desk. “That is my plan for the next ten years of the Kingdom of the Phoenix Skies. You just have to do as it says. Ten years is enough for you to learn how to rule the country.”

After saying that, the king clenched his fists and coughed heavily.

The Grand General was about to speak when he saw the corners of the king’s lips cough up blood. His pupils shrank. “Your Majesty, you…”

The king put down his hand, a dead look in his eyes. He said, “I can only hold on for a few more days before I have to look for Little Ling’er.”

When Feng Ling heard this, she quickly covered her mouth and tears flowed out again.

The Grand General’s body trembled.

“Little Ling’er has been waiting for me. I know.” The king looked at the Grand General and instructed him sternly, “My tomb is built beside the sacrificial hall. After I die, get someone to seal my tomb and the sacrificial hall together. I don’t want anyone to disturb us.”

The powerful anger that surged in the Great General’s heart made his eyes turn red. “Your Majesty, you!”

The king waved his hand. “You can leave for now… You will govern the country with me for the next few days.”

The Grand General wanted to say something else, but when he saw the king’s pale face and the blood vessels on his lips, he could only turn around and leave the imperial study.

In the next few days, the king indeed taught the Grand General how to rule the country without holding back. At the same time, he implemented several laws and regulations.

In the past few days, everyone could feel that the king’s life force was disappearing. On the last day, the king, who was sitting in a high position, suddenly said to everyone, “I should go and look for Little Ling’er.”

Then, the head butler’s trembling voice could be heard. “His… His Majesty has passed away.”

“Your Majesty!”

Everyone knelt on the ground.

The entire country was in mourning.
