Song hui felt a pinch in his chest and as if something worming in his flesh. He looks at Yusheng his eyes full of questions, confusions and doubts.
Yusheng stood up gently and smiles at him brightly while saying "as you don't have a heart that has love, sympathy nor pity rather just a lump of flesh filled with greed, indifference, ruthlessness and visciousness like of a beast it's better to not have it.
The thing that just entered your flesh is a special bug like I have given to that filthy women. The difference is that bug loves brain matters while this one loves to eat heart.
Not only will it eat your hearts flesh it will also suck all the blood dry that your hearts pumping. Enjoy the true nibbling of your heart. Don't worry it is a very big eater and fast too.
I suppose by three hours it will finish eating up your heart. Song hui.. do enjoy these three hours to your hearts content. Then slightly bending her mouth to his ears she whispers very slowly "song hui everything I said is not an illusion it happened and you did it...in previous life.. I came back from the death to kill you all.." leaving behind a wide eyed and shocked song hui she leave without turning back with strong yet light steps.
Both song hui and mu lian felt tremendous pain. The bugs were chomping on their organ with its sharp teeth. Mu liam felt she was on verge of mental collapse or go crazy. Her memories surfacing and flipped like a book finally stopped on one part.
It was the first time she had seen the emperor. He was so young , charismatic, handsome everything a lady wants in her husband. It was that moment she felt her heart beating wildly till her bloods rushed to her cheeks letting her know she had fallen in love.
At her last moment it was not her son, her family or her ambition of becoming an empress but emperor she thought about. The young charismatic emperor she had fallen for. Her last words were "Songzhi..I never stopped loving you..."
While song hui saw unknown memories and images inside his head. These were the exact ones Yusheng had mentioned earlier. His eyes were filled with tears his already hurting heart hurting more. He felt his soul crumbling with his shaking hands he moved them where Yusheng had left as if wanting to stop her.
In his last moments tears flowing from his eyes he looked to the direction where Yusheng had left and with great longing and heartache he said "Sheng'er ...sorry...if.. if only we had met first..."
Yusheng was inside her bath tub soaking in the warm water feeling cozy. Her eyes were closed her face was serene she could feel the knots that binds her soul loosen.
Her body felt great relief her mind was calm like still lake her heart was in peace. She had killed almost all of the enemy's the way she wanted to making them suffer like she thought of.
She repeats in her mind " two left.. the last two". After getting out of the bath feeling rejuvenated she orders Liu Bai to collect the heads of song hui and mu lian. Also to place them inside the jar filled with liquid which prevented from decaying.
Liu bai though unknown to exact reason but knew that his master had great enimity for them. The kind of hatred that has seeped into ones bone and soul. But he knew better than to step out of his boundary.
But her all shadow guards and maid servants could feel the air of alienation from her once in a while, also her back though straight and strong sometimes emitted great sadness and loneliness making them too feel sad and helpless.
They hope and prayed for her to be more happy and worry free loosening up and enjoying the life like a lady of her age. As far as they knew she would either be training or holed up in the medicine room if not inside the study focusing on informations, planning and writing.
Though at some times she would too enjoy laughing and eating but they were few and rare can be counted in fingers. With these heavy thoughts liu bai arrives at the place where two cold body's laid. Blood pouring out of their opened eyes, nose mouth and ears.
Liu bai first collected that fat bug from song hui's chest which had come out of the hole and now hibernating on his chest. Then with viscious look and one swipe cut of his head.
Similarly he went and collected another fat bug from the outer ear ring of mu lian and with one clean stroke collected her head. Remembering that these were his masters nemesis he wanted to smash their head till minced but not daring to disobey he kept in big jars.
Remembering that master had not said anything about the body's disposal he was spirited thus turning back with viscious smirk he sprinkles powder on their bodies and soon bugs began to crawl on their bodies fighting to eat the flesh and bones.
