Chapter 563: Misery Lily
With the appearance of the black mark of space on Jiger's forehead, the golden light that originally filled the hall dissipated instantly, and was replaced by a diffuse black mist.
The black mist split into several dark hands that grabbed the nineteen golden swords. The next second, the golden swords merged with the black mist like melting ice and completely dissipated.
Everything that happened before her eyes was beyond Lily's understanding. She froze in place, her eyes full of confusion.
Jiger breathed a sigh of relief, he slowly raised his right hand, and the demon sword Muramasa flew into his right hand, then turned into liquid, and finally formed a pitch-black scepter.
Holding the Scepter of Darkness, Ziger slowly stood up from the Sky Throne. At this moment, the rising sea level outside had returned to normal, but the originally clear sky had turned dark.
The people who survived the disaster once again showed despair on their faces, as they didn't know what kind of natural disaster would happen next.
However, this time, it seemed that apart from the darkness, there was no devastating disaster.
In Pangu City, Jiger glanced at the dark scepter in his hand and said softly,
"It only took a short while for the outside world to become a mess. Is this the power to control the world..."
Lily came back to her senses and quickly spoke,
"Jigshen, you......"
Jiger raised his hand and made a pinching gesture. Lily's face changed and she pursed her lips involuntarily, unable to make a sound.
Lily's eyes widened, and she was extremely horrified.
She totally couldn't understand how Jiger could do such a thing, and could actually control her body out of thin air. You have to know that she didn't have this ability when she possessed the Throne of the Sky.
Just for this reason, compared with Jiger, the throne of the sky that she had sat on for more than 800 years seemed like a castrated version.
Lily couldn't help but think that if Jiger could still enter and leave Pangu City at will, she would be so angry that she would die.
However, she did not notice that while she was thinking about this, Jiger gave her a half-smile.
The next second, a black mist suddenly lifted up Lily's body, and before she could react, she appeared outside Pangu City with Jiger.
What came into view was still a sea of flowers. Lily looked at everything in front of her in a daze, then turned to look at Jiger with a shocked expression.
"Mmmmm! (Can you hear my thoughts!?)"
Since she still couldn't open her mouth, the only sounds she made were mumbling. However, this did not prevent Jiger from understanding what she meant, because Jiger could now truly hear Lily's thoughts.
Jiger smiled and nodded, stretched out a finger to hook Lily's chin, and said,
"Yes, you no longer have any secrets in my eyes."
The moment Jiger's fingers touched Lily's chin, the restrictions on her were lifted.
Lily opened her mouth and exclaimed,
"This, this is impossible! Why is the Sky Throne you got so... so perfect? What on earth did you do!?"
At this moment, Lily felt like crying but had no tears. She thought to herself, could there be another way to open the Throne of the Sky? If so, then her eight hundred years of imprisonment in the Flower Court would simply be a huge joke!
The funniest thing is that she gave up such a perfect throne of the sky!
Jiger looked at Lily with a trace of pity in his eyes and said,
"Do you really want to know the reason? Maybe knowing this will only make you feel worse."
Lily was a little crazy. Of course, no one could accept what happened to her. She grabbed Jiger's collar with both hands and said anxiously,
"Tell me now!! Why are you not affected by the curse of the Sky Throne?!"
Jiger responded calmly,
"The reason is simple. You are the only one from the D clan among the original twenty people. Except for my ancestor Saint Casillas, the other eighteen people still don't trust you enough."
"What did you say!!??"
Lily was struck by lightning when she heard this. She loosened her hands and began to tremble all over. At this moment, she no longer had the dignity of the former master of the world. She just looked like a wounded little girl.
Jiger sighed softly, and gently embraced Lily in his arms.
Lily didn't struggle at all, she was already a little numb.
Jiger's voice rang softly in her ears.
"The eighteen people at the time did not receive the blessing of the immortal surgery. They knew that they would not live long, so they chose to merge their souls into the Sky Throne. Lily Palace, in fact, in the past eight hundred years, you are not the only owner of the Sky Throne. It is shared by you and the eighteen people."
Lily murmured numbly,
"You mean, for the past eight hundred years, the Sky Throne was influenced by those eighteen people and imprisoned me here, but why have I never felt their presence?"
"I have already said that they merged into the Sky Throne as souls. Unlike your physical body, this method cannot allow the soul to exist forever in the world. Instead, it will be constantly consumed by the power of the Sky Throne. In the end, only the last obsession in their souls will be left. This obsession is to keep you in this small place among the flowers until the next owner of the Sky Throne appears."
"What if the so-called next one is not you but Joy Boy? Or a descendant of the D clan? Haven't they thought of this situation?!"
"Maybe they thought about it, but it's good enough that they can leave behind an obsession. It's hard for them to do anything else."
“Hehe…..hahahaha!!”
Lily suddenly burst into laughter like crazy, and as she laughed, two lines of tears slowly flowed from her eyes.
"So the so-called curse is actually D? They are willing to die just to guard against a member of the D clan like me. This is ridiculous!"
Jiger stroked Lily's back and said,
"In fact, it's not just because of your D clan. Those eighteen people have noble ideas. They don't want an unrestrained dictator to appear in the world in the future, just like the lawless Joy Boy. They even want to build an equal world."
Hearing this, Lily showed a sarcastic smile on her face and sneered,
"Equality... I didn't expect that they would still hold on to such naive and ridiculous ideas until their death. There has never been equality in this world. Human desires are endless! Desires lead to fights, fights determine the winners, and the winners must dominate the weak. This process repeats itself over and over again and will never stop!"
