Before Feiying and Taoyao could continue their conversation, the Golden Queen on the throne suddenly moved.

Those green eyes slowly turned towards them, emitting a chilling aura.

The air in the entire palace seemed to freeze, and it was so oppressive that it made people feel breathless.

Feiying immediately became alert. She quickly drew out the big sword behind her and assumed a fighting stance.

The sword blade gleamed coldly in the sunlight, as if responding to its owner's fighting spirit.

The Golden Queen slowly stood up, and the poisonous fog around her became thicker.

She raised her hand and waved gently in the direction of Feiying and Taoyao.

In an instant, countless chains made of pure gold rushed out from the ground and wrapped around the two of them like living things.

These chains gleam with metallic luster, but carry a suffocating poisonous smell.

Feiying swung the sword quickly, trying to cut the golden chains.

However, she soon discovered that the chains were extremely tough and even her greatsword could not easily cut them.

What's worse is that every time you touch these chains, a strong poisonous gas will hit you in the face.

"Be careful! These chains are highly poisonous!" Tao Yao warned loudly.

Feiying nodded and continued to swing the sword, trying to find a breakthrough in the dense chain attack.

Her movements were as fast as lightning.

But even so, it still seems a bit powerless.

The Golden Queen stood in front of the throne, watching all this coldly.

She raised her hand slightly, and more golden chains came from all directions, covering the entire space in a golden net.

Feiying felt unprecedented pressure.

The former lord of the Golden Kingdom still retained his suffocating strength even after being infected by the corrosive poison.

Each of her movements carried unparalleled power, as if showing the gap between mortals and gods.

Just when Feiying was about to be completely surrounded by the golden chains, a pink light suddenly bloomed around her.

The familiar petal shield was like a giant cherry blossom, enveloping Feiying.

Countless pink petals fluttered in the air, forming an indestructible line of defense.

The golden chains hit the petal shield, making a harsh metal collision sound, but they were unable to break through this layer of defense.

Tao Yao stood aside, with her hands slightly raised, controlling the petal shield.

There was a firm light in her eyes, as if she was saying silently:

"I won't put you in any danger."

A warm feeling surged in Feiying's heart.

With this layer of protection, she was finally able to fully display her strength.

She took a deep breath and tightened her grip on the sword in her hand.

"Thank you, Taoyao."

Feiying said softly, "Now, let me deal with her!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Feiying rushed out of the petal shield.

Her figure was like a flash of lightning, shuttling through the gaps in the golden chains.

The greatsword drew silver arcs in the air, and each strike accurately hit the Golden Queen's vital points.

The Golden Queen obviously did not expect Feiying to suddenly burst out with such powerful power.

Her movements began to become messy, and the attack of the golden chain gradually weakened.

Feiying seized the opportunity and leaped in front of the Golden Queen.

She raised her greatsword high and slashed it down with unrivaled momentum.

"boom!"

After a loud bang, the entire palace shook.

When the smoke and dust cleared, the Golden Queen had fallen to the ground, her body covered with wounds.

The golden chains also dissipated, and the entire palace returned to peace.

However, just when Feiying thought everything was over, a glimmer of clarity suddenly appeared in the eyes of the Golden Queen.

She slowly raised her head and looked at Tao Yao.

As if she recognized Tao Yao, a relieved smile appeared on the Golden Queen's face.

"Taoyao..."

The Golden Queen's voice was weak but firm. "Can you give me the final relief?"

Tao Yao was stunned.

She looked at the once powerful ruler of the Golden Kingdom, who was now so fragile.

A strong feeling of pity welled up in her heart.

"You still retain your consciousness and have not been completely destroyed. I can still save you, really!"

Tao Yao said anxiously, as if she was not going to give up so easily.

However, the Golden Queen shook her head gently, still with a relieved smile on her face.

"You know, Taoyao. This is impossible. Once you are infected with the poison of the poison fairy, it means almost certain death. The only reason I can still talk to you now is because I am carrying the will of gold."

She paused and continued, "Although the glory of gold has faded, its spirit lives on. Just like a seed buried deep in the ground, it will bloom again one day. And you, Taoyao, you are the one who can make this seed sprout again."

Tao Yao was silent for a moment, and finally nodded slightly.

She understood that this was the Golden Queen's last wish and the only thing she could do for this former hero.

The Golden Queen showed a look of gratitude.

"Thanks……"

Her voice became softer and softer. "Taoyao, gold is dead in name only, but you are still here... You are the strongest of mankind, and the hope of mankind. If it is you..."

However, before she could finish her words, something suddenly changed.

The eyes that had originally regained their brightness once again turned into the dark green color that symbolized the poison goblin.

A strange yet familiar voice came from the Golden Queen's mouth:

"Hope for humanity?"

The voice was full of mocking laughter, "As a fairy, you have become the so-called hope of mankind. Original... Don't you think this is ridiculous?"

Feiying immediately became alert. She raised the sword again and pointed it at the Golden Queen.

There was a flash of surprise in Tao Yao's eyes, and then she seemed to have thought of something and suddenly realized something.

"Poison goblin?"

Tao Yao immediately pointed out the other party's current identity.

The authority and ability of the poisonous goblin itself has certain possession characteristics.

In this way, it is easy to infer that the poisonous fairy possessed the Golden Queen.

When the poisonous fairy heard that he was recognized, he couldn't help but burst into crazy laughter.

The laughter that came out of the Golden Queen's throat sounded particularly harsh and inharmonious.

"Original, oh, Original, you are still as sharp as ever."

The poison fairy said in a contemptuous tone, "But you know what? I can feel the hatred this human has for you. Although she doesn't show it, she hates you more than anyone else."

The voice of the poisonous fairy became sharper and sharper, as if it would pierce the eardrums of everyone present.

"It was you who slaughtered her people with your own hands. It was you who destroyed her country with your own hands! And now, she still has a trace of sanity, but you want to kill her. Is this what you call beauty?"

Tao Yao stood there quietly without making any response.

Her expression was as calm as water, without any sign of fluctuation.

Seeing this, the poison fairy continued in a provocative tone: "You are fighting for the good of mankind on the surface, but how many people have actually died at your hands? Are you really qualified to stand on the moral high ground and accuse us?"

Feiying watched this scene nervously.

She didn't know what the poisonous demon in front of her was planning to do, but she was more worried about Tao Yao.

She looked at Tao Yao who was standing there in silence, and suddenly became alert.

Feiying was very afraid that Taoyao would be affected by the poisonous goblin. After all, no one knew what this strange creature was capable of.

At this moment, the Golden Queen seemed to regain consciousness. Her eyes became clear, and she began to fight with the poison fairy for control of her body. This invisible battle was manifested in the Golden Queen's painfully twisted face and her constantly trembling body.

"Shut up!" The Golden Queen spoke with difficulty, "Don't listen to his nonsense! Taoyao... Taoyao is..."

Before he could finish his words, the poison goblin took back control.

"How long do you think you can struggle?" the poison fairy taunted, "Let me tell them your innermost thoughts!"

The Golden Queen struggled once again to regain a bit of control, and her gaze turned to Taoyao and Feiying.

“Hurry… hurry up!” She shouted with all her might, “The poison fairy has completely controlled me. I’m hopeless! Hurry up!”

However, Tao Yao remained indifferent to the Golden Queen's request.

She stood there with empty eyes, as if she was lost in some deep thought.

This reaction made the Golden Queen feel desperate, and she could only place her last hope on Feiying.

"Do it..."

The Golden Queen cried out eagerly, "I know you have the power to end this. Please...please give me the final relief!"

Feiying was immediately caught in a dilemma. She looked at the Golden Queen struggling in pain, and then looked at Taoyao who seemed to be sleepwalking, her heart was full of contradictions and uneasiness.

Should we comply with the Golden Queen's request and grant her final relief?

Or should I wait for Taoyao's instructions?

The burden of this decision suddenly fell on Feiying's shoulders.

She clenched the sword in her hand, but was unable to swing it.

Feiying knew that once she made a choice, it would mean she would have to bear the corresponding responsibilities.

If she chooses to end the Golden Queen's life, she will become the murderer who ended a once great nation.

But if she chooses not to take action, the Golden Queen may continue to suffer from the poison goblin, or even become a tool to harm others.

Just as Feiying was struggling, the poison fairy regained control. Its voice was full of sarcasm and pride: "It's useless. The entire human civilization is now full of my parasites! Even if you kill her, I will still exist. And if you are merciful, I will drive this body to corrode, subvert, and destroy all surviving humans."

The poison fairy's words were like a sharp sword, piercing Feiying's heart.

She felt dizzy, as if the whole world was collapsing under her feet.

"and,"

The poison fairy continued, his tone full of malice,

"Killing her alone won't work. If you don't chop her into pieces, she will still be unable to escape from my control!"

Before she could finish her words, the Golden Queen regained control of her body.

Her eyes were filled with despair and pleading, and she said in a trembling voice:

"Hurry up! I'm tired of the feeling of not being in control of myself! I just want to die now! Please... give me some relief..."

Feiying felt heartbroken.

She looked at the Golden Queen's painful expression and her inner struggle became more intense.

She knew that every second of hesitation would bring more pain to the Golden Queen.

But the burden of ending a once great life with her own hands was too heavy.

At this moment, Tao Yao seemed to finally wake up.
