Grave 1065

just appeared on my hand."There's Xianlin dew and immortal ointment in here. Apply some, alright! Who told you not to Look, mosquitos don't bite me."Xianlin Dew Divine Medicine Ointment What the heckI...“……My Lady, we were attacked just now! Corpse puppets floated down the stream from the back mountain. We thought they were corpses, but they suddenly sprang to life and attacked those by the water! Some people who ran inside died, and those two corpse puppets were killed, but——”

"But you've killed dozens of them, haven't you! And you're going to burn the wounded ones too" My anger was rising.

"He needs to be burned! The corpse poison of a Gu worm is incredibly powerful!"

I closed my eyes and sighed, "Cremating a corpse, I have no objection. But cremating a living person is wrong... What about Dr. Lianlong"

Lien Long stood afar, coldly watching these people. He heard my call and walked out, saying, "My Lady,"

"Is there any hope" I gestured with my chin at the wounded.

"Those injured to the core are beyond saving, but those wounded in limbs can have their limbs severed to save their lives." His voice showed no fluctuation, but from his eyes I saw a glimmer... of disappointment.

I let out a long sigh and addressed the young men: "I've found a place where I can evacuate you to safety, but you must obey my orders. There is no room for dissent or questions. If you don't trust me, stay here and await your fate... On my way here, I saw the Dragon King. He has infiltrated this mountain, perhaps hiding in some secret passage."

"Those who want to live and are willing to obey me absolutely, follow me! I will take you out and provide for your food, clothing, shelter, and medical treatment. Those who refuse, stay here and wait to die!"

People were in turmoil. They looked at me with a mixture of hope and despair.

I don't know what to do.

Only a small number of people followed me out of the secret passage.

A small group, about a thousand people, followed me out gradually.

...Wàn Chén, they won't listen to me, what should I do

"Little Luo'er, don't be discouraged, being able to walk part of the way is still something," Mu Xiaoqiao said with a more open mindset than I.

She encouraged me, patting my head: "If ruin and destruction are destiny, then you are the glimmer of hope in this line."

I managed a weak smile, before I could even utter a thank you, the ground beneath my feet began to shake violently!

This is not an earthquake, this is not an earthquake……

It wasn't the earth trembling, but this craggy mountain itself that was swaying!

"Boom—!!" Several huge boulders suddenly fell from the entrance!

We are trapped inside!

In that instant, the world before me turned black as ink. The air was thick with sand and dust, and panicked screams filled my ears.

Has the landslide happened

The thought flashed through my mind.

But the vines around me still firmly held onto the massive stones of the passage.

These roots, usually flexible and subdued, were hidden underground but supported this tunnel.

"Don't panic, don't panic! Don't lose your composure, the Dragon King isn't here yet!" I yelled to the people behind me.

It's pitch black, the environment is too dangerous, a random swarm of Corpse Worms could attack a whole group of people.

I reached out and tightly grasped Mu Xia Qiao's hand, afraid of hurting my little junior wife. Wouldn't Master be furious

The young apprentice wife whispered, "Don't worry, it's fine that there's no barrier here. I'll summon Bai Qiyé over. We can also open a path through the underworld from here..."

She took out her phone and shone it on me.

I turned on my flashlight, and the light immediately shone on the ground.

"What is this"

On the ground, black lines spread out like waves, circle after circle.

Are you seeing things This is a stone floor, how could there be waves

I immediately crouched down and reached out to touch the stone slab beneath my feet.

Cold, rough, hard.

Those black waves seem to exist in a different space, overlapping so faintly on the stone.

Mu Xiaoqiao also saw it. She let out a surprised "Eh" and crouched down, reaching out to brush it gently.

However, it never hit anything.

"This... kind of looks like a well opening, doesn't it..." Mu Xia Qiao frowned and said.

"Wasn't the wellhead by the stream The terrain is so flat there..." I remembered that White Seventh Master had set up his magic array there.

But the circles of slow, rippling black grew denser and larger.

Soon, the cold light from the phone could no longer reach the edge of the ripples, and almost everyone’s feet were covered.

I'm feeling a bit uneasy. What are these black ripples The color is so dark, I can barely see the stone slabs beneath my feet.

Down-to-earth, yet with a kind of bewildered fear.

It feels like it could fall apart at any moment.

A sinister chuckle pierced through from outside the giant stone.

Bai Wu Chang's narrowed eyes gleamed with a sinister smile in the darkness. He, a wisp of shadow, drifted past the massive stones, his sleeves billowing dramatically in the absence of wind.

"Little Empress, after so many years, this is the first time I've seen a living person with such great magical power, hee hee... How can someone like this be allowed to exist in the world" He spoke aimlessly.

Mu Xia Qiao was stunned and asked, "Who are you talking about"

Who

Bai Wu Chang's eyes glanced over to me, smiling but not answering.

And who else

Who else

Here's a slight change, who will be anxious

Besides Mu Wanchen, who else.

These black ripples are the well mouth, rippling outward in circles, as if an inkstone had been overturned.

“Boom!!” The mountain shook violently again.

The people inside immediately shrieked and scrambled, their cries making my head spin.

Anxiety, worry, helplessness, a sense of being out of control, and disappointment at one's own powerlessness all surged up within me.

I felt a churning in my entire being,

It's probably the feeling of wanting to vomit from anger. I felt a surge in my stomach, and a metallic taste of blood filled my throat.

The boulder blocking the doorway crumbled, showering down pebbles and revealing a sliver of light. Outside was the sky just before dawn.

The air was turbulent, and the wind whistling in from this opening carried an unusual scent.

My eyelids twitched incessantly, and I recalled Bai Wuchang's enigmatic smile, a sense of foreboding creeping over me.

That small gap seemed to be calling to me.

I climbed towards the rubble, possessed. My junior wife tried to pull me back, her voice a torrent of words, but I only heard murmurs.

The opening was a little too small for me to squeeze through. As I reached out to break up the pebbles, Bai WuChang suddenly floated behind me.

The biting cold pricked at my skin, his words slithering like vipers around bleached bones.

"Your Highness, I didn't widen this well...hehe..."

What does it mean

But, I can do you a favor.

Need help

"Hush..." He raised a thin, withered finger and pressed it lightly against his blood-red, thin lips.

Those sinister eyes narrowed, and he spoke slowly, "The Yellow Springs Road, a road of no return…"

"I can make these people disappear... from now on. You can get rid of this big trouble, taking your Mu Wanchen into hiding. How about that"

How I swallowed nervously.

“Seven Lords, why do you want to ‘help’ me”g as my soul-calling banner, it's just a little bit bigger than the palm of my hand Don't be too cute, okay…"...How big do you want it" he frowned slightly."Huh I just asked like that, it works if the...
