769 Alarming the Queen
At this moment, in the back garden of the palace, a lady who was wearing a long dress with the style of the Western region was standing in a pavilion on a Lake. She was holding fish bait in her hand and casually throwing it into the water.
This was Jingjue Queen.
The aura that she exuded was something that an ordinary woman could not possess. It was the aura of a superior. She naturally exuded a unique temperament by just standing casually.
The exotic clothing on her body outlined her perfect figure, making people feel that they didn’t dare to profane her. Her exquisite oval-shaped face was perfect, but the most beautiful and eye-catching part of her was her eyes.
Her eyes were very special. The inner pupils of the eyes were pitch-black, so black that they shone, so black that they were deep as if there was a mysterious passage condensed in the eyes. Anyone who looked into her eyes would feel as if their entire mind and spirit would be swallowed.
There was a legend in Jingjue City that the eyes of the Jingjue Queen could communicate with ghosts and gods. She could devour thousands of living beings and use them as sacrifices to the ghosts and gods to obtain magical powers and rewards.
However, not many people knew what the actual situation was.
Those who had seen the power of this pair of eyes were all dead.
All of a sudden, Queen Jingjue, who was feeding the fish, showed a look of shock and anger. Her deep eyes were filled with anger and ruthlessness.
Bang!
Her dainty hand suddenly smacked on a pillar of the pavilion, and the entire pillar shattered into dust on the spot. The roof of the pavilion continued to crack, and it fell into the lake.
“D*mn it! Someone broke into the Ghost Cave and touched my Kunlun Divine Tree. D*mn you! How dare you have designs on me! I’ll make sure you die a horrible death!”
Jingjue Queen’s face turned ugly as if she was going to explode. The Kunlun Divine Tree was the supreme treasure in her hands. She did not dare to spread the word about it, for fear of attracting the attention of others. She had been extremely careful and calculated but she did not expect that the divine tree would be stolen today.
It was like a lecherous hand touching her butt.
“Men, immediately lead the troops into the Ghost Cave and guard all the exits. No matter who it is, as long as they dare to come out, kill them all without mercy!” ordered Jingjue Queen.
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
Hearing the commotion, the surrounding maids and guards come over. Upon hearing the order, someone immediately responded and turned around to pass on the order.
The expressions on their faces became extremely serious. From the queen’s angry order, they could tell that thieves had sneaked into the Ghost Cave.
What kind of place was the Ghost Cave? It was a forbidden area in Jingjue City. Even the forbidden area had been broken into. This was a slap in their faces.
“Inform the demonic snake guards. If they can’t deal with the intruders, I will turn them all into sacrifices to the Grim Reaper!” said Jingjue Queen again.
“Yes, Your Majesty!” a maidservant quickly replied and left.
At this moment, everyone knew that the queen was furious. Even the forbidden place, the Ghost Cave, was intruded upon by outsiders. If this news were to spread, then the reputation of Jingjue of the Guidong race would be completely destroyed. Not even a trace of it would be left.
“D*mn it! I’d like to see who has the guts to touch my thing and break into the forbidden area. I wish the person isn’t just a thief. Otherwise, I’ll be really disappointed.” A cold light flashed in the eyes of the Jingjue Queen, and her gaze became deep.
She snorted coldly, got up, and strode toward the Ghost Cave.
…
In the Ghost Cave, although it was only the highest platform that collapsed, it was impossible for the members of the Guidong race to not notice such a huge commotion unless they were blind and deaf.
If they stayed in the Ghost Cave any longer, they would be caught for sure.
This was the forbidden land of the Guidong race. Now that they had taken the Kunlun Divine Tree, the Guidong race would not let them go even if they returned it.
“How can this be? With such a huge commotion, it must have alerted Jingjue Queen. I heard that Jingjue Queen is extremely cruel. Furthermore, the Guidong race has many powerhouses, and they believe in ghosts and gods. With their power, they are certainly not easy to deal with.” Song Yuqing’s face was filled with shock as she frantically ran outside.
It was impossible not to alert the people outside. The only thing they could do now was to leave this place as quickly as possible.
“Jingjue Queen is not easy to mess with, and neither is the Guidong race!”
Jiang Ni also moved quickly and said, “It’s said that the Guidong race comes from the underground world and they worship a mysterious eyeball as their totem. The Ghost Cave is their Holy Land, and the object of their sacrifice was a Grim Reaper called the Ghost Eye God! It’s said that Jingjue Queen is the emissary of Ghost Eye God, walking in the world in His place.”
Jiang Ni had a certain understanding of the Guidong race and even the Jingjue Queen. The information he had was far beyond ordinary people.
“There are also legends that believe that the Jingjue Queen was the reincarnation of a demoness. Before she inherited the throne, she signed a contract with the Ghost Eye God to obtain power. She offered her eyes in exchange for endless power and also obtained the allegiance of the mysterious ‘Supreme Thunder’. However, no matter how powerful she is, she can’t escape the cycle of life. Due to the abuse of the godly power given by the Ghost Eye God, Jingjue Queen has become very powerful.”
“Jingjue Queen is ruthless. Although she is powerful, the small countries ruled by the Guidong race couldn’t stand it. They rose and vowed to destroy the entire race. During this period, countless fierce battles and killings had taken place. At that time, the population of the Guidong race was small, and it was difficult for them to resist the rebel army. Thus, the Jingjue Queen sincerely prayed for the Ghost Eye God to help her people defend against foreign enemies.”
“After that, just as the alliance army was about to take over Jingjue City, the ground suddenly cracked and a giant ‘black eye’ flew out from the bottomless abyss in the Ghost Cave. Everyone who looked into the eyes of the ‘black eye’ was instantly petrified. At the same time, the ‘black eye’ continuously summoned Divine Thunder to burn the entire Jingjue territory. After a fierce battle, the alliance army suffered heavy losses and was forced to retreat. Then, the ‘black eye’ granted her powerful strength again, and her eyes changed. They became very terrifying. It is said that the queen’s eyes can make people disappear, take them to an unknown void, and sacrifice them to the Grim Reaper.”
Jiang Ni quickly revealed a secret. This was the history of the Guidong race that was unknown to the public.
Even if they entered a new world, it was still an unerasable history. As for whether it was true or not, it didn’t matter.
The most important thing was that the Jingjue Queen was very scary, and her eyes were even scarier. Her power was certainly unordinary.
