"You... vicious woman..."
The emperor had just been thinking about how he was going to lose Huijun. He hadn't expected this woman to send a dagger straight into his heart—literally.
With all his remaining strength, the emperor attempted to pull himself out of the situation. His eyes opened so wide that they were about to pop out. He very quickly ran out of breath.
Huijun sneered as her bloodied face revealed an unprecedented expression of joyful release.
Her voice shivered with madness as she said, "Damned Emperor, you know how much I hate you!"
The dagger she held in her right hand viciously plunged deeper into his heart as she spoke, twisting and turning the handle of the blade as she stirred into his flesh.
Fresh blood continued to pour out of the wound and color her hand bright red. Her elegant fingers turned the color of red agate.
