COMPLETED! --- "From now on, you will not age, nor will you die. From now on, you will witness how people around you die. From now on, you will be the undying Immortal Zhang Hei." --- More than four hundred years ago, Zhang Hei callously swung his sword to separate souls from their bodies, leaving no soul attached to the body in Jiangshi Palace. The massacre triggered severe punishment from the God of Life, and he was cursed to witness the death of the humans around him while he himself would not be able to die. From that day on, Zhang Hei became an immortal who would live forever. Zhang Hei had lived in this world for over four hundred years, and he had witnessed so many deaths over the years. As he continued losing people around him, he felt more and more emptiness in his heart, and he finally begged the God of Life to lift his punishment. He said that he wanted to die, and the God of Life then asked him to meet the God of Death. The God of Death then asked him to find a person. That person was one of the people he killed heartlessly more than four hundred years ago, and after meeting him again, his life started to change. As his life continued to change, Zhang Hei also began to see strange images in his mind that seemed to be part of the past that were erased from his memory by the God of Life, and some unexpected things began to happen in his life. Would the immortal still want to die after he once again reunited with someone from the past? Would he be able to die in the end?
["What is the emperor's name, Father?" The black-haired boy asked his father who was busy bathing the horse in the river.
His father did not come home every day, but what he liked the most was his father who always came home riding a horse. His father said that the horse was a gift from the emperor and he loved it very much. That was also what made the man go straight to the river instead of resting at home just to bathe the black stallion, and the boy suddenly felt curious about the person who gave the horse to his father.
"Why do you want to know the emperor's name, Little Hei? If one day you have the chance to meet him, you can just greet him by saying 'Your Majesty' and not call him by his name. It is impolite to call His Majesty by his name," explained the older man with a faint smile to the boy dressed in black who was sitting on the riverbank.
