"Since ancient times, Human and demon has been a path of two different ways."
A young man dressed in a dark robe sighed softly.
Kong Se wanted to take a closer look at the man, but she could never see his face clearly.
She knew this was a dream she was having, yet as a fairy, she didn't need to sleep, so how could she be dreaming? Kong Se thought to herself.
The man's voice echoed again: "If you wish for me to be a man, then I am; if you wish for me to be a woman, I can also be a woman; all things in the world are born of yin and yang, I am both yin and yang."
Gradually, the man's blurry outline became clearer, and that face unmistakably bore the features of Qian Dai!
"Kong Se, I know what you have done. The hard-earned cultivation you possess, was it worth it for that person?"
"Who exactly are you?"
"Me?" The man chuckled lightly, "Once, people called me Master of the Danqing Brush, able to command all things; now, I am called Qiandai. Kong Se, I told you, I am both yin and yang."
The man walked to Kong Se's side and lightly touched her forehead with his fingertip. A halo slowly rose, and Kong Se fell into unconsciousness.
In the blurred sensory world, there was a cacophony around her and the sound of a woman's singing. The woman's voice was deep and mournful, her song spreading like a faint resentment: "Feeling joy at first with great care, lamenting the desolation after. Striking gold beside tortoiseshell, outwardly splendid yet inwardly thin."
Another voice rang out: "Do you know that I am his beloved? Killing me is like killing him! Did you see him in that state of being a walking corpse?" Laughter echoed back and forth like a demonic sound.
"Despicable thing! A mere plaything who has just gained spirituality actually killed a princess of the heavenly family and devoured her soul; truly audacious!"
"Kong Se, you escaped from the first day of the month; can you escape from the fifteenth?"
"Do you really think you can hide it from him for a lifetime? Don't forget, you are a fairy, a fairy who killed his beloved."
Kong Se's head throbbed painfully as countless voices rang in her ears. Another voice came through—Tang Yan's cold laughter: "Kong Se, you know I am not Beloved; my heart has long been destroyed by you. You killed Changqing."
A familiar scent of ink wafted through the air, surrounding Kong Se in Qian Dai's embrace: "You are infatuated with Tang Yan, but it is only because he writes for you. However, Kong Se, it is I who colors for you."
Qian Dai reached out and gently brushed the corner of Kong Se's eye. "You have committed the sin of killing for a mortal. One day, the heavens will hold you accountable, and by then, no one will be able to save you."
Kong Se followed her, drawn by the scent of blood. The woman exuded a nauseating aura, a cold and cruel presence that Kong Se did not love.
Of course, she also did not love the scent of this palace; it was a solemn place imbued with a decaying atmosphere, along with the inviolable dragon energy of the Tian family.
Fortunately, this was merely a small temporary palace, and the dragon energy was not overly potent. Moreover, she was a clean spirit and had never killed or seen bloodshed, so the righteous energy within this hall could not harm her much.
Yet she was still a spirit; while the righteous energy did not hurt her, it suppressed her essence, making Kong Se feel somewhat uncomfortable.
Although staying inside was indeed unpleasant, it was merely discomfort. Compared to that discomfort, she had more pressing matters to attend to.
She had come today to collect a head, and that head naturally belonged to Princess Changqing.
However, she was not in a hurry; she wanted to observe why Tang Yan would fall for this woman.
The woman had shed her luxurious garments and dismissed all her maids. Dressed only in a white nightgown, she leaned back on the couch with her arms propped up. Her long black hair flowed down to the floor, but she paid no mind to it, focusing solely on the candle flame. Again and again, she used a golden hairpin to poke at the wick, her expression extremely cold.
"Today, did you hurt someone you shouldn't have?"
The sudden voice made Princess Changqing's hand tremble, extinguishing the candle flame instantly.
A cold hand had already pressed against her delicate neck.
After all, she was a princess of the Tian family; aside from initial surprise, she quickly regained her composure. Princess Changqing furrowed her brow slightly and tilted her head back.
Kong Se gathered her palm and leaned close to her ear, whispering softly: "Today is my first time engaging with someone; my movements may not be very smooth. If you move recklessly and I accidentally crush you, don't blame me."
The night was hazy, and Princess Changqing could barely make out the white cloud patterns on the cuffs. She coldly asked, "Who are you?"
"An inconsequential person, but..." Kong Se paused and continued, "also the one who will kill you."
The princess let out a light laugh, mocking, "What a fine inconsequential person."
Kong Se ignored the light mockery and tightened her palm; she was determined to end this now!
Princess Changqing's cheeks gradually flushed red, yet she did not struggle. Just as she was about to be choked to death, a sudden spasm caused her to grasp Kong Se's wrist tightly, her nails digging in fiercely. In a hoarse voice, she cried out, "I have long wanted to die, but those who wish to harm me will not live well either!"
Kong Se was not willing to let her speak another word; with forceful pressure from her palm, there was a sharp "crack," and Princess Changqing's neck hung at an unnatural angle. Yet her eyes remained wide open, seemingly still trying to see something clearly.
Having concluded one matter, Kong Se prepared to leave. However, after taking just two steps, she turned back. She beckoned at the corpse with her finger, and a faint green smoke floated out from Princess Changqing's forehead, slowly stopping in front of Kong Se before finally vanishing.
Kong Se smiled.
But just as she stepped out of the palace door, a powerful aura pressed down on her, making it hard for her to breathe. Unbeknownst to her, a fierce Qilin stood there, lowering its head and roaring, looking extremely agitated.
Upon seeing Kong Se emerge, the Qilin let out a roar and swiftly struck at her with its sharp claws. Kong Se immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.
Before she could recover, the Qilin had already pinned her down. As its large mouth loomed over her ready to swallow her whole, she felt dizzy. Just before losing all senses, she was enveloped by a scent of ink and then heard no more of the Qilin's roar.
