Just as the ominous flames were about to touch the empress, who had become immobile due to fear, the Demon Slayer appeared one after another, clasping their hands together to form countless transparent blades, blocking and cutting off the incoming flames.

"Didn't you miss...... "Let's say with some disappointment, "but that's fine, mother, but don't let me kill you casually!" ”

The Empress barely managed to calm herself, stabilized her mind, and once again looked at her daughter not far away with a keen and calm gaze.

"Listen to me, Laetia." The Empress's tone was slightly unnaturally soft, "I don't know what you've been through, but it's my fault that I didn't lend a helping hand when you were in danger before. ”

The Empress slowly removed the crown from her head, placed it on the ground, and looked at Laetia with a pleading gaze, "Think of your country, think of your friends, please don't go any further!" ”

Laethea had a gloomy face, but her originally gentle and obedient face was a little cold at this time, and after listening to her mother's advice, she did not show any emotion.

"It's disgusting to say this kind of thing out of your mouth!" Ladia's harsh words sent a shudder in the Empress's heart.

Looking at her mother's feeble anger and pleading, Laetia's beautiful face couldn't help but smile a little sinister.

She stretched out her right hand and snapped her fingers, and Sicas, with her hollow eyes and a lost sense of self, staggered forward and walked to Ladia's side.

Under the gaze of the empress and others, Laetitia raised her right hand high, and her originally slender and beautiful arm was covered with fine and narrow black lines, which looked extremely hideous and terrifying.

Letitia gave a strange smile and slammed her raised right hand into the chest of Sicas beside her.

“！！！ What are you doing here?!! The Empress roared in disbelief as she stared at the arm that had pierced deep into Sicas's chest.

Sikas, who was so badly hit, didn't react, didn't even blink his eyes.

With the Empress's desperate gaze, Laeita jerked her arm out, her bloody hand clutching a throbbing and obvious thing.

Sicas's heart was firmly held in Princess Laetia's hand at this time, and the originally red blood turned black, which looked extremely strange and terrifying.

Black blood continued to fall from the bloody hole in Sikas's chest, but Sicas didn't move, like a pathetic zombie.

Laetita moved her right hand holding her heart forward slightly, as if to show off her great masterpiece to her mother.

At this moment, the sound of footsteps was heard, and the royal guards had arrived in front of the empress, and they looked in amazement at Ladia, who had already fallen into a complete madness and laughed even more.

"The more people who come, the better...... Laethea laughed twice, her dark purple eyes glowing faintly, and her heart in her hands began to flicker ominously.

The Empress bent down slightly, cold sweat sliding down her body continuously, it was obvious that she had been affected by this strange spell.

The guards stepped forward to stop the former princess, but they were firmly blocked by the misty black light, and the bodies of the people who came into contact with the black light began to be quickly drained until they completely turned into a dry corpse.

Everyone had to slowly retreat, and now the situation was beyond their control.

At this time, there was no one who regretted the empress the most, because only she, Yasha and a few priests in the entire royal family knew what kind of dedication ceremony Laetia received.

Although the ritual was kept strictly secret, and no one else knew the inside story of it, there was no secret that could be hidden forever.

Moreover, the nature of the matter itself is blasphemous and despicable, and Laetitia is a victim of manipulation.

And the empress herself is also guilty, only because she thinks of the benefits and self-deception after the success of the matter, so she can appear so calm.

The entire exhibition room had been infected and eroded by a black mist-like light, as if it had stepped into half of hell.

"Look at me, Mother!" Laetia's voice was full of twisted pride, "Look carefully at how the daughter you abandoned with your own hands destroyed everything you were proud of!" ”

The thick black mist completely obscured Laetia's frantic smile and the empty expression of Sicas beside her.

The Empress cried out in almost despair: "Everyone, you can still move!" Retreat all, the farther away from here, the better! ”

Everyone retreated in panic, and the nightmarish black mist of light swallowed many of the unfortunate in the completely uncontrolled crowd.

The empress who had exited the room stopped, and finally glanced back deeply into the depths of the light mist, and hurried away.

Outside the treasure room, Yasha's mood was not much better than that of her sister, and her extremely keen perception allowed her to detect everything that was going on inside.

At this time, all the royal mages of the royal family were already standing around the treasure room, and they were concentrating their efforts to perform a large sealing technique.

This is Yasha's unique divine voice, which summons all the mages to control the situation, but even so, the black light mist that has spread shows that these royal mages seem to be powerless.

"Still can't help it......" Yasha looked at the golden barrier that surrounded the treasure room, which was being corroded by a black mist of light.

"Yasha!" A long-awaited exclamation diverted Yasha's attention, and the Empress had safely left the treasure room under the protection of the Demon Slayer.

Yasha didn't feel much joy, but only glanced at her sarcastically, as if to point out that the Empress was the culprit of the disaster.

"Even you can't help it?" The Empress did not notice her sister's eyes, but asked her worriedly.

Yasha was about to answer, but saw that the black light mist was about to escape, so she hurriedly aimed her staff there, and the intermittent blue light blocked the black light.

At this time, Yasha reluctantly replied, "I think that's the only way to use that, Your Majesty." ”

Hearing this, the empress lowered her head and clenched her hands, the expression on her face revealing a deep powerlessness.

Obviously, the "that" in Yasha's mouth should never be used until the critical moment.

"So, what are you waiting for?!" Yasha turned around and roared, the hand holding the staff trembling slightly, "If we don't make a decision now, you and I will witness the final demise of the empire!" ”

The Empress was awakened by Asha's words, and she took a deep breath, knelt down on one knee, and raised her right hand, the shining blue ring standing out.

With a tragic and resolute gaze, the Empress scanned the crowd as they did their best to stop the spread of the disaster.

"Sixth Emperor of the Second Empire of Darkwings, Yasdina Darkwing." The empress's solemn voice permeated the secret method resounded in every corner of the palace.

"I am willing to swear to use the soul given to me by my ancestors in exchange for the Lord of the True Universe to resolve the calamity in front of me!"

When the empress finished saying the last word, the incomparably pure blue ring on her hand suddenly burst into an unprecedented golden light, soaring into the sky.

The dazzling and divine golden light dyed the sky golden, and constantly formed golden swirls in which extremely powerful energy surged.

Huge pillars of golden light blasted downward from the vortex generated in the sky, completely engulfing the treasure room, and the powerful impact even shook all the mages around it.

After a long time, the black light mist disappeared completely, but the treasure room did not lose anything, and the golden light quickly disappeared.

The Empress watched with relief, and soon lost consciousness and collapsed.

The surrounding Demon Slayer Stars lifted the Empress up, and a petite-looking girl pressed her right hand on the Empress's forehead, and the Empress's pale face gradually regained its rosiness.

Yasha stood aside, and after seeing that her sister was in danger, she looked at the treasure room that had been restored to its original state.

She was completely unaware of the age-old and evil power, but it also meant that she couldn't tell if Laetia had been destroyed.

Even though the Soul Sacrifice Divine Technique that began to circulate in the Imperial Family nine hundred years ago could almost reverse everything, this forbidden technique had only been used twice in the past nine hundred years, and this was the third time.

The first two took place hundreds of years ago, and there is no record of the use of this forbidden technique in the history books, so Asha cannot be 100% sure of the results.

However, the situation at this moment could no longer allow this imperial sister to think so much, and after observing for a while, she hurriedly went to direct the aftermath work.

The unsettling night had slowly descended inadvertently, and through the enchanting veil of dusk, a corner of darkness had been revealed.

Heiyao City, Thousand Curtain Academy, it was already after school, but Bai Xuanyi had no intention of going back.

She was sitting in the office with Lan Xiaoyu at this time, waiting for the arrival of the two of them a little impatiently.

After a long time, there was a knock on the door, Bai Xuanyi and Lan Xiaoyu glanced at each other, and were about to step forward to open the door, but the door opened by itself.

Huang Yao crossed his arms and looked at the two people in front of him with a mocking expression, "Because you guys are too slow, I came in by myself." ”

Bai Xuanyi looked behind her and saw that it was empty, so he asked, "What about Arenas?" Where is he?"

Huang Yao glanced at him and said, "Xiao Ai has some special circumstances, so I asked him to go back first, do you have any questions?"

Bai Xuanyi looked at Huang Yao and found that there was nothing abnormal about her body, but her mental state seemed to be better than before, and her whole person seemed to exude vitality.

"In that case, you can go back." Lan Xiaoyu walked to the hanger behind him and stretched comfortably.

As if waiting for Lan Xiaoyu's words, the green light on Huang Yao's body flickered, and the trace disappeared in an instant.

Bai Xuanyi walked to the window a little unnaturally and watched the sunset gradually setting in the distance.

An extraordinary sense of unease came from the bottom of Xuan Yi's heart, and she didn't know why she felt the way she did.
