“Xiao Wu?” Ming Xi took Feng Wu’s hand and worriedly looked in the direction she was staring at.

Feng Wu turned to Ming Xi and seriously said, “There are many people here, many identical people.”

As if in unison, the spirits displayed an identical ugly expression while Feng Wu and Ming Xi talked.

Instead of answering Feng Wu’s question, the spirits disappeared.

“You mean there are evil spirits here?!”

For evil spirits to come out under the red moon was incredibly rare.

Feng Wu shook her head and said, “No, they are not evil spirits.
There is nothing entangled around them.”

“Not evil spirits?!” Ming Xi wanted to ask Feng Wu what was going on, but their location was too dangerous for questioning.

“Did you just say there are evil spirits around us?! Is this place actually a ghost town?” Ghost town, yes, the name was very appropriate thought Rui Baby.

Yifu broke out in a cold sweat upon overhearing.

They were all afraid of the unknown and ghosts were something they all feared.
Except for necromancers, no one would voluntarily want to see the departed spirits of the dead.

“Little girl, you’re a necromancer?!” The middle-aged man looked at Feng Wu with bright eyes.

They had mages, sword masters, and pharmacists in their group, but no necromancers.
He had felt eyes watching him as soon as he entered the city.
Now with Feng Wu’s revelation, he knew there really were eyes watching him.

A bunch of ghosts had been staring at them the entire time they were in the city! No wonder they felt jittery every time they entered.

“No, it’s that I can see some things.” Feng Wu was honest.
She had the qualifications to be a necromancer but she preferred being a sword user.

“It’s good you can see, it’s good you can see.
Can you tell us what you saw?”

Feng Wu didn’t think there was anything she needed to hide so she repeated everything she saw.

The spirits of the king’s attendants began to gossip wildly.

“Oh my goodness, the legends were true.
I never expected the czar was this kind cruel, heartless person.”

“That’s why I say people can look good but still be dogs.
This czar guy was a dog through and through, completely inhuman.

“That’s too much.
It’s just excessive, holding all these people accountable just because of one person.”

“That czar guy was an abomination; he would do something like that.”

The spirits gossiped and bad mouthed the czar.

“What’s going on? Do you guys know something?” Rui Baby flew over when he saw the furious conversation the spirits were having.

They didn’t hide anything and spilled all the czar’s affairs to Rui Baby.

Rui Baby’s mouth puckered more and more the more he heard about the atrocious czar.

“I thought it was a just a tale people imagined, but it turns out it is true after all.” Ming Xi took a deep breath and spoke.

“Ming Xi, do you know what’s going on?” Ze Ye looked over at Ming Xi, hoping the other could explain.

Ming Xi coughed before speaking.
“If I’m guessing correctly, the spirits of the dead Xiao Wu saw were the original citizens of the Kingdom of Sand.”

“And everyone in the kingdom looked exactly the same?” It was just too unbelievable.

It was hard to find two people who looked identical in everything from height, weight to coloring.
To say the people in the kingdom were born the same, was too hard to believe.

“Of course it is impossible.
The reason why they became like so was because. . . ”

And Ming Xi proceeded to tell them the tale.

Ten thousand years ago, before the kingdom was unified, most of the people living there were just ordinary people.
But one day a demon person became stranded in the desert.
He was just a normal foot soldier in the demon realm, but in front of these ordinary people, he was practically a godly existence.

The demon forced people to pay tribute with wine and women, and for a people with precious few food resources, this made their lives even more difficult.
On top of that he also demanded the most beautiful women.

He was cruel by nature and killed people for every little thing.
Later, one of the tribute beauties became pregnant.
She died during childbirth when the baby sucked her life and burst from her body.

No one dared harm the child because the demon was there.
But one day everything changed when a passing master killed the demon.

The dead woman’s brother adopted the child.
He didn’t do it to care for the boy though, he did it to get vengeance for his dead sister.
He just wanted to torture the child and make it pay.

This was a price that should have been exacted from the demon, but the demon was no longer there, so the brother took out all his anger and hate on the child.

The child, who didn’t understand anything, was beat from his head to his toes every day from then onward.
No one interfered.

Everyone looked at the child like it was a dirty thing, an object to be used as an anger outlet.

As expected, the child grew to hate everyone, especially his uncle.
And as the boy grew, the demon blood in his body eventually awoke and caused his cultivation to explode.

He ruthlessly murdered his uncle in a most cruel manner with his newfound strength.
Afterwards he forced everyone to wear his uncle's face with a demon curse.
Let them see the face he saw every day.

Soon after this, the Kingdom of Sand was established and every citizen inside had the same face as his uncle.
None of them ever regained their original appearances.
