[k] @ But upon joining the Shang dynasty, Daji disobeyed the goddess's orders and used every trick at her disposal to seduce King Zhou of Shang, leading him further astray. [k] @ She was dreadfully evil, and delighted in cruelty and the atrocities she committed. Ultimately, she hurt so, so many innocent people.
