After being stunned for a short while, the snake looked at Huai Shi with a dangerous gaze.
But soon, it seemed to understand something. It looked back at its master, lowered its eyes tiredly, gently snuggled up to the prince who had accompanied it for a long time, and closed its eyes.
Huai Shi carefully took a step forward, but the snake did not respond. Even when he was close to it, it only raised its eyes to look at him coldly and then looked away.
It seemed to be tired.
It fell into a deep sleep.
Huai Shi carefully rummaged through the things that Kitten gave him. Soon, he found a small box and opened it. Inside, there was a piece of gold foil cut into the shape of a flower. It was painted with a conspicuous peach blossom pattern and had a faint fragrance.
Following Kitten's instructions, Huai Shi held his breath, picked up the piece of gold foil, and gently placed it on the black-haired prince's forehead.
As if time had reversed, quietly, the ferocious prince became handsome and slender. The corners of his mouth curved into a smile, as if he was dreaming of a beautiful dream.
It dissipated into dust.
The snake also disappeared without a trace.
In the ashes, only a small dagger was left, full of ancient feeling.
The second prince, settled …
But Huai Shi's heart was not happy and fortunate. Instead, it was a little heavy.
In the past, who knew how many years, these princes should have been dazzling and handsome, right? With pure gentleness and kindness, they walked in the legends … but now they had declined to this extent.
They couldn't even ask for relief.
He continued to move forward and took out a small bottle from his pocket. The bottle was filled with an emerald green liquid, which exuded a sweet fragrance like apple juice. He quietly poured it on the lips of the next prince.
As if moistened by the fragrance of the juice, the withered and decayed face became beautiful, and the red lips were bright.
Then, it turned into dust.
The next one …
When he passed by the long-haired prince, Huai Shi thought for a moment, took out a small pair of scissors from his pocket, and put it together with the strand of golden hair in his position.
Let these stay here as their memento.
Then, there was a warm heart-shaped ruby, like a heart full of love, with a certain person's name written on it.
It was placed in the hands of the red-haired prince who used to wield fire.
He collapsed into dust, and in the dust, there was an ice crystal-like gem and a red heart.
Huai Shi continued to move forward without stopping. He carefully followed Kitten's instructions and finished off the last few princes.
When the last prince dissipated into dust, leaving behind a small sharp knife and a crystal that was as small as a bubble, Huai Shi finally breathed a sigh of relief. He felt sweat dripping from his forehead.
Mission complete!
He sat down on the shabby stage, unable to get up for a long time. Only now did his hands begin to tremble, and a belated fear rose in his heart.
Just now, he had almost died without leaving a corpse behind in hell …
If any of the princes were to be awakened, the consequences would be unimaginable.
After a long, long time, he finally let out a sigh of relief. He got up from the stage and walked towards the entrance of the theater.
Then, he heard a voice behind him.
"Are you leaving just like that?"
Huai Shi froze on the spot.
He slowly turned his head.
Then, she saw a young man standing on the stage for a long time. He was handsome and beautiful, with bright golden hair and a trace of a smile that made people uneasy.
He wore a crown on his head that showed the inheritance of royal power, and a sword at his waist.
Another prince!
Huai Shi stared at him in astonishment. After a long time, he suddenly felt a little powerless. "Where did the Four Heavenly Kings come from?"
Eight out of seven princes?
Isn't this a little too against the rules?
"What? Is this unexpected?" The unfamiliar prince asked with a smile. There was no anger or gloom in his expression, but instead, it was bright and gentle.
"A little." Huai Shi sighed. "May I ask which prince you are?"
"I'm none of them."
The prince slowly shook his head. "At best, I'm just the remnant of their last obsession. Even if you leave me alone, I may not be able to exist until tomorrow morning."
Huai Shi looked at him in confusion and frowned. "You don't seem angry?"
"Why should I be angry?"
The prince asked rhetorically. "Didn't they get rid of it in the end? That's enough. Instead of continuing to live on, it's better to meet the end with dignity.
No matter how cruel and crazy they have become now, they used to be kind and gentle people … Even if they don't deserve sympathy, at least they have the backbone of a prince, right? "
Huai Shi was speechless.
"Thank you very much for helping us get rid of the ugly appearance we have now. Please allow me to express my sincere gratitude to you."
With that, the prince put his hand on his chest and bowed.
"…"
Huai Shi didn't know how to answer. Should he say that you're welcome? Or should he say that he's sorry for your loss?
It didn't seem right.
"Uh, then you should thank me … I'll take my leave first …"
Huai Shi took two steps back and quietly walked to the door. He reached out to push the door, but found that he couldn't.
"…"
"So, after thanking me, you still want to take revenge, right?"
He sighed helplessly.
"Revenge? It's not revenge. What revenge can there be? "
The prince said, "The reason why I'm here is just to fulfill their last wish."
"Every injustice has its perpetrator and every debt has its debtor. I'm just an employee. Why don't you go and get rid of the kitten? That guy is the culprit … "
Huai Shi said carelessly. He secretly raised his guard and focused on dealing with the huge pressure from the prince.
"You may have misunderstood."
The prince raised the corner of his mouth and smiled brightly. "My purpose is not to kill anything, and I don't want to kill you here.
I just want to finish the work they haven't finished.
Since you've stepped into this place and have the qualifications, then you must have been aware of it long ago, right? "
With that, he slowly pulled out his sword, pointed at Huai Shi, and said solemnly, "Come on, let us finish each other's final work."
Huai Shi was stunned.
Unbelievable.
"The challenger is Huai Shi, and the opponent is the prince."
He announced in an impassioned tone, "In the name of the paradise, I accept Huai Shi's popularity challenge!
On this stage where we used to be, in the last legend left behind by us in the past, I invite all the audience to bear witness, I invite all the audience to recognize, I invite all the audience to watch here, and I invite all the audience to listen here! "
In the prince's solemn announcement, the impassioned words spread in all directions.
At that moment, the silent Kitten Paradise suddenly lit up.
Colorful neon lights and gentle and cheerful music rose from every corner of the park. The bleak darkness was illuminated by the lights, and countless phantoms of the past appeared and wandered among them.
The merry-go-round and the Ferris wheel began to run again.
Cheers and applause filled every corner.
A dazzling golden light descended from the sky and illuminated the dilapidated theater where Huai Shi was. Time reversed and the dilapidated stage was restored to its former splendor. The dust-covered seats were spotless again.
One by one, the audience appeared on the seats. Not only the figure of the kitten, but there was also Luoli Mi, who was hugging a pipa and covering her face with a paper fan. There were also all kinds of strange creatures and abyssal creatures that he had never seen before, and the leaders of the large group entrenched in Yamatai, the Kings of Darkness.
As Paradise's Favor descended once again, a loud bell sound spread out in all directions.
Wherever the bell sound passed, countless people were awakened from their deep sleep, and raised their heads in astonishment. Immediately, they felt a pull of gravity, and their bodies involuntarily rose into the air.
Then, in a blur, they appeared on the seats of the theater.
In the blink of an eye, there were no empty seats!
Not only Yuan Zhao and Ye Xue Ya, but also Hu Po, Ansali, and many more faces that he did not know. In the end, Huai Shi even saw Luo Xian, whom he had not seen for a long time.
She sat quietly in the audience seats, as if she did not understand what had happened. Very quickly, she nodded her head in understanding, and waved at Huai Shi with a gentle smile.
But for some reason, she was wearing a rather classical maid outfit, with a lace wreath on her head … It was as if she was ready to consecrate the omelet rice at any time, and cast a love spell on it.
Alright, Huai Shi's mouth twitched, as long as you are happy …
Not only all the contestants, but even the camera in the live broadcast room automatically turned to look at them. The audience, who had not been able to watch anything interesting during the long night, woke up with a start and looked at Prince and Huai Shi under the spotlight in astonishment.
On the VIP seats, the representatives who had just started chatting were attracted. They raised their heads, and when they saw Huai Shi's face, they could not help but be stunned for a long time.
Why the f * ck is it you again?
Howoldareyou?！
After the initial shock, the big cousin could not help but laugh softly, "Young people can always surprise people."
Prince?
How enviable …
.
As the spotlight shone, under the gazes of countless people, the prince waved his hand, and the sound of a horse neighing could be heard. A pure white horse galloped out of the void and stopped beside him.
The prince stepped into the stirrups and rode the horse. He lowered his head and looked at Huai Shi below the stage, revealing a smile.
"Come, young man."
He gripped his sword tightly and pointed it at the young man's face. "Let me personally determine whether or not you have the qualifications to inherit this honorable crown!"
As a result, countless people's gazes fell on Huai Shi's body.
In the silence, he silently looked around at the audience, and finally, his gaze fell on the prince.
He looked at his white horse, looked at his sword, and then looked at his awe-inspiring solemn expression. It could be said that he had tempered his posture thousands of times, without any flaws, and was proud of his fighting spirit.
He did not speak.
But for some reason, he suddenly felt … … excited.
His blood seemed to be boiling, impatiently rushing through his body, emitting a burning temperature. Origin Substance rose like flames, rushing out from the crack in his chest.
He felt joy and anticipation emerge from the depths of his soul.
He slowly reached out and gripped the sacrificial knife and axe tightly, causing the steel to collide and burst forth with a joyful cry, calming all the restlessness and noise in his heart.
Only a calm and simple rhythm was left.
"Then, Your Highness, in accordance with the rules of the Paradise, I hereby challenge you!"
The young man revealed a smile, raised his head, and stepped forward. Under the scrutiny and gazes of the audience, he walked onto the stage that belonged only to him.
This was indeed a battlefield that made him endlessly happy, a battle that made him go all out, an opponent that made him feel respect from the bottom of his heart.
Was this not what he had been looking forward to all this time?
Thus, there was no need for more worry and fear, no need for those senseless pretenses and lies.
