DEVIL'S SWORD

DEVIL'S SWORD

A cursed sword belonging to the Demon King was hurled to Earth during the war between the Gods and Demons, which ended in defeat for the Demon race. The malevolent radiation emitted by the cursed sword spread widely, plunging Earth into an age of DARKNESS for tens of thousands of years. Human moral values were destroyed, and truth vanished from every action. Their minds had been contaminated by the radiation released by the Demon Sword. Eventually, the Gods agreed to erase all humans and rebuild civilization on Earth. Good and evil were reintroduced in balance so that humans could choose the path they would one day follow. However, what the Gods had done did not completely eliminate the threat of DARKNESS returning to Earth. The Demon King, having lost half of his power, sought to find his sword and restore his full strength. His ultimate goal was to plunge Earth back into the age of DARKNESS. To thwart the Demon King's ambitions, the leader of the Gods bestowed a divine gift upon a young man named Ho Chen, born from a royal concubine. His mission was to find the Demon Sword and purge its evil influence in the crater of a mountain known for its powerful mystical energy.

Chapter: The Wrath of King Qiang Zu
The room was soaked in silence, the kind that could crush the chest and still the breath. Fang Yun and Lu Feng stood rooted to the floor, their expressions carved from stone—shocked, horrified, and utterly unable to comprehend what they had just witnessed. The lifeless form of Princess Zhao Rui lay sprawled across the marble floor, her once-vibrant eyes now staring into nothingness. Her royal robes, embroidered with phoenix patterns in golden thread, were stained deep crimson. Blood had seeped into the cracks of the floor beneath her. Neither of them could speak. A deathly stillness wrapped itself around the chamber, interrupted only by the faint crackle of torches and the distant sounds of unrest outside. What Ho Chen had done was unthinkable. Killing Zhao Rui had not even been a possibility in their minds—yet it was now an irreversible truth. Beyond the chamber walls, demon soldiers stood frozen not by Fang Yun's icy magic, but by the

Chapter: The Death of Princess Zhao Rui
Fang Yun, Ho Chen, and Lu Feng were frozen in place at the sudden appearance of Princess Zhao Rui. None of them had expected the youngest daughter of King Qiang Zu to have overheard their conversation.Although they weren't entirely certain, judging from her reaction, it was highly likely that Princess Zhao Rui had discovered Fang Yun and Ho Chen’s plan to escape.“Why aren’t you asleep, my bride-to-be?” Fang Yun asked. As the one closest to her, he took the initiative to speak, hoping his words might calm her furious mind.He once again recited the incantation that allowed him to see Zhao Rui’s true form, so he would no longer be deceived by the demon woman’s false beauty.The demon princess didn’t respond. Her eyes widened even more, the red glow within them blazing brighter than before.“Damn it, it seems we’ve really been found out,” Fang Yun muttered, seeing that his question went unanswered.“Stay calm. Stay alert

Chapter: The Sacred Stone
Fang Yun stared intently at Lu Feng, hoping for an explanation that could help him decide—whether to stay and marry Princess Zhao Rui or to leave the palace with Ho Chen.“Calm your thoughts, Fang Yun,” Lu Feng said with a slight smile, carefully choosing his words so that Fang Yun might come to his senses. “I’ve lived in the demon realm for hundreds of years, serving as the royal physician. What Ho Chen told you, and what you saw earlier, is all true. No demon truly takes the form of a human. If they appear human, it is only because they possess the ability to disguise themselves.”“So... that horrifying form of Princess Zhao Rui and the putrid stench I smelled—those were real?” Fang Yun asked, his gaze hollow. His spirit was shaken, and his heart clouded by the harsh truth.Lu Feng nodded. “You have to accept this reality, Fang Yun. You should be grateful to have a friend like Ho Chen, who risked his life to enter the demon realm to save you.”<

Chapter: Disgust
Princess Zhao Rui's expression turned sour after Fang Yun defended the two guards.“You’re lucky my future husband stood up for you. But be warned—if you dare to do something like this again, I’ll make sure you receive a severe punishment,” she threatened.“Let it go. Let’s go inside,” Fang Yun said, already eager to spend some time alone with Princess Zhao Rui in her room.Hand in hand, the young couple entered the room, and the door closed behind them.The two guards could only shake their heads as they watched the affectionate pair.Inside the room, Fang Yun’s nose was immediately assaulted by a foul stench. He couldn’t tell exactly what the source was, but it was sharp and overwhelming.“Aren’t you supposed to be in seclusion? Why are you here? Aren’t you afraid it might bring bad luck to our marriage if you break the tradition?” Princess Zhao Rui asked curiously.Still holding her hand tightly, Fang Yun smiled warml

Chapter: A Longing Fulfilled
"Is what Fang Yun said true, Ho Chen?" Lu Feng asked, eyeing Ho Chen with curiosity."No, Grandpa. I'm just an ordinary human born from a mother’s womb," Ho Chen replied firmly without hesitation. To him, he was human and would always be human. Even if the blood of the Sun God flowed through his veins, Ho Chen neither denied it nor took pride in it.Lu Feng could only scratch his head. From Ho Chen’s expression when Fang Yun mentioned that he was the son of the Sun God, it was already clear that it was true—but why was Ho Chen still trying to deny it?Yet the old man didn’t press further. He believed Ho Chen must have had a special reason for not wanting to admit his true identity in front of him.Midnight finally arrived. Lu Feng instructed Fang Yun to sit cross-legged and close her eyes. The royal physician of the demon realm—though from the human world—then sat cross-legged behind her. During the entire purification ritual, Fang Yun w

Chapter: Ho Chen’s Fury
Lu Feng chuckled softly, then picked up a lantern nearby."Your Majesty need not fear. Only the tip of this needle will pierce Your Majesty’s body, not the entire thing. Besides, don't you possess great mystical power? Why be afraid of something as small as this needle?""Only the tip?" King Qiang Zu tried to reassure himself."You may punish me if the needle goes in too deep," Lu Feng replied, then began burning the tips of the more than twenty needles, one by one."Very well. You may proceed—but if I feel pain, you will suffer a heavy punishment!" King Qiang Zu warned."I promise it won’t hurt, Your Majesty. Now, please remove your clothing and lie face down on the bed."In the end, King Qiang Zu obeyed. He removed his robes and lay on his stomach. Still, a lingering unease haunted his mind.Finally, Lu Feng began. One by one, the needles with singed tips pierced the king’s back. The ruler of the demon realm felt
