The Destiny of Love in Ancient Times
The Tragic End

WHILE outside the imperial palace, Honorary Concubine Yi was dressed more modestly. Without any headdress or fancy jewelry on her body. Her face was more haggard than usual but still displayed her arrogant nature and aura as Emperor Gu's favorite concubine.

It was just that he was now a little dazed after hearing about the existence of Gu Wenlian, his son who had been branded as a traitor by the emperor.

He doesn't know what's going on. The morning turned dark as at night. Honorary Concubine Yi and Princess Yu Yang quietly slipped in, entered the horse carriage and asked the coachman to rush towards the residence of the Yi mansion located some distance away from the Gu Imperial Palace.

"Mom, is it okay if we go like this? What if the emperor's father gets angry and punishes us?" Princess Yu Yang was a little worried, sitting next to her mother restlessly.

"Don't worry, the palace is busy at the moment. Your emperor father doesn't care about us at all. Let's go back first and find your elder brother," replied Honor Concubine Yi calming him down.

The atmosphere in the carriage returned to silence, only the sound of horseshoes now pulling the carriage.

Suddenly the carriage was slightly unbalanced, the horse neighing and the sound of the coachman shouting made the mother and child panic even more.

"What's going on?" Honorary Concubine Yi was upset.

"Gee! Help u! Please, there's a ghost!" The coachman sitting in front was pale-faced.

Not much lighting on the street, all quiet. So the coachman had a lantern next to him to make sure the streets were okay.

Honorary Concubine Yi heard the sound of the coachman's scream, a hint of fear in her heart. Could this be an undead? But how can there be a corpse that wakes up again after death. This is impossible.

"Mom! Yu Yang was afraid!" Princess Yu Yang immediately docked into her mother's embrace.

When the carriage stopped, the horse's neighing was still heard. But shortly after, the atmosphere became quiet again.

The mother and son thought everything was okay.

"Don't be afraid, everything will be fine. We'll be back home soon" Honorary Concubine Yi said. "Hurry way!" He ordered the coachman to return to running the train.

But after a long wait, there was no movement or speech from outside. Honorary Concubine Yi frowned. Could it be that the coachman ran away from seeing a ghost?

"Mr ..." Princess Yu Yang felt uneasy in her heart. "Mom, let's go back to the palace. It's safer there. It doesn't seem like a joke. Ma'am, look around, it's as dark as it is at night. They say it's a solar eclipse and the bodies are wandering around" he explained.

Honorary Concubine Yi pouted and was displeased. "Stupid kid! If we return, your emperor's father will be sentenced to death for violating the rules of the imperial court. You will also be affected. Don't think there. We'll go home to Yi first" he said.

"All right, wait here. The concubine's mother will see what happens outside."

Honorary Concubine Yi revealed the curtain that became the door of the carriage that was large enough. But just as he was about to descend, he was startled by the tall black-robed figure that appeared in front of him.

Honorary Concubine Yi immediately saw what kind of creature was in front of her. At that instant, his face turned pale. He doesn't know what to say.

"Mom, what's going on? Why hasn't it come down?" princess Yu Yang asked who saw her mother flinch at all.

Honorary Concubine Yi did not reply. But at that moment, a terrifying scream sound was heard almost echoing in the sky.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

On the other hand, the group of soldiers led by An Daiyu and Gu Huiling stopped abruptly. They heard a cry for help from the other direction. Due to practicing martial arts, their sense of hearing was not too bad.

Instantly, they immediately led all of the soldiers in the direction that the screaming sounds were coming from. They are worried that there are citizens who still do not know the dangers of the outside world today.

"Why are people so hard to follow the rules? The emperor had already warned many people but there were still those who closed their right and left ears" An Daiyu protested a little annoyed.

Gu Huiling shook his head while holding the horse rope. "Forget it. Not everyone will obey the order."

On the way alone, An Daiyu and his entourage met a group of undead. They only used fire to drive them away and kill them. Especially the fire archers who were always ready at any time. That way, they could smoothly head to the location of the shout.

There is a car that has rolled over. But there's not a single undead there. Only four horses had been lying lifeless with some terrible wounds on his body. The horses were clearly dead from the undead attack.

"It's a woman. Look at who he is," Gu Huiling said to his underlings.

He also got off the horse to see if anyone else was in the carriage.

But just about to open the curtains of the carriage, one of the soldiers who examined the woman lying not far from the horse carriage shouted in surprise.

"What's wrong?" Gu Huiling frowned.

An Daiyu was also curious.
