Imperial Treasure

Chapter 579 - 374 Demon God

Being fervently watched by an enemy, Sui Yi still maintained her composure and met the other’s gaze for about three breaths before she said, "I’m sorry, I can’t help you."

The enthusiasm initially displayed by Second Master Gong instantly cooled, yet his smile grew icily, "What, you don’t care about Gong Jiu and their lives?"

"I know they are still alive and well, just unconscious..." Sui Yi’s words slightly twisted Second Master Gong’s expression, "How do you know I won’t hurt them?"

Could she have guessed his subsequent plans?

Impossible..

"I naturally know they are right behind you in that room, aren’t they?" Sui Yi said lightly.

The faces of Second Master Gong and Corpse Hover underwent a drastic change.

How did she know!

At the same time, Hou had already darted into the room below.

Almost instantly, Corpse Hover’s mouth moved slightly, muttering an incantation or some special language, and the Green-Haired Rice Dumpling suddenly lunged at Sui Yi!

Second Master Gong moved as well! He had been using a gun until now, but finally, he resorted to his ruthless tactics.

It was an Ejector Blade Knife, very thin, like a cicada’s wing, double-edged and double-handled, spinning between his fingers like two connected fans...

The speed of the attack was very fast, with a flick of his wrist, it sliced through the air like a flying disc.

Like a shooting star!

Man and Rice Dumpling in cooperation!

Sui Yi beckoned to Demon Que, pressed her fingertip against the blade, and buzz, the Sword Qi crawling along the blade vibrated wildly!

Empty Mountain Birdsong!

A sound attack?

The vibrating sound was piercing, and the Green-Haired Rice Dumpling immediately lost its contact with Corpse Hover’s voice, yet the attack carried on as before!..

Following this, whoosh~~

The sword light flowed, the Sword Qi was formidable, clang!

In the blink of an eye, it struck down that flying disc comet!

Meanwhile, the attack from the Green-Haired Rice Dumpling smashed down from behind her!

Buzz buzz buzz!

The vibration suddenly intensified, even distorting the previous wave of sounds... the Rice Dumpling’s attack hesitated for a moment..

"Damn it, attack her!" Corpse Hover cursed loudly, his command’s weird language intensified the sound waves.

It overcame the Sword Qi sound waves!

But before that, Zuo Wei’s Inner Strength erupted in an instant!

Four hundred years of Inner Strength...

Burst!

Wind Evolution Blade Technique’s sixth form, also the sixth sword.

— Army Destroying General Beheading!

Boom!

Both the man and the cicada-wing comet were sent flying with a single strike!

The air flipped...

Second Master Gong used his weapon to block the Sword Qi which he discarded forcefully... unloading the force!

This required tremendously terrifying strength!

The fierce Sword Qi was flung onto the wall...

Boom!

Flying rocks burst forth, pelting onto his body... As the cicada-wing sliced through... The flying rocks did block him, but what about the man?

A chilling attack struck, too quick to dodge...

Demon Que had already sliced through his arm...

Blood was drawn!

Swipe!

Second Master Gong landed, clutching his arm, only to see the Green-Haired Rice Dumpling kicked flying by her!

Power, her power was more than twice as strong as she had previously shown.

Hidden too deeply...

Second Master Gong’s gaze swept around, and instantly realized Corpse Hover had already fled!

Damn it!

Second Master Gong turned and left, while that Green-Haired Rice Dumpling lagged behind, blocking Sui Yi...

Sui Yi could beat it, yet she couldn’t kill it, for its defense was too strong.

Only after the two had escaped to safety, did the Green-Haired Rice Dumpling seem to hear the command, then turned and leaped away...

Sui Yi didn’t pursue, merely watched coldly as the dumpling vanished, and then she descended into the secret room.

In the secret chamber, Hou was tearing off ropes that bound Gong Jiu and the others like rice dumplings...

Although the Magnetic Sensation allowed her to see through the walls at the status of the people inside, it was still not as reassuring as seeing with her own eyes.

Her gaze swept across, all fifteen people, Flower Demon and Han Gao among them, the whole crew.

Gong Jiu couldn’t have brought just these people, for safety, he surely would have, like Second Master Gong at the outset, invited some outsiders...

The traitor must be among these outsiders, those aligned with Second Master Gong, sweeping them up in one move.

Sui Yi checked that the wall lamp was safe before lighting it, its gentle light much more comfortable than a searchlight. Then, she stepped forward and checked Gong Jiu’s breath and inner condition... drugged.

Sui Yi took a potion from her backpack and stimulated it with Magnetic Sensation; soon Gong Jiu’s eyebrows twitched...

One by one, she handled them all.

Approximately when dealing with Brother Ma, Gong Jiu woke up...

Upon opening his eyes, he saw a face close in front of him, full of dense hair, crouching before him with a gaze as tender as Zhu Bajie watching his wife...

Blinking, Gong Jiu closed his eyes and fainted again...

Until someone patted his head gently and said, "No need to pretend, it’s me."

Hearing such a familiar voice, Gong Jiu opened his eyes, turned, and saw Sui Yi in front of Brother Ma.

Gong Jiu’s eyes reddened, "I really am dead, aren’t I..."

Sui Yi: "..."

Ignoring his overthinking, Sui Yi helped the others detox; soon, Flower Demon woke up and seeing Sui Yi, smiled, "You really came."

Moments later, Gong Jiu, now back to normal, hugged Sui Yi before saying, "Anyway, don’t scold me, don’t laugh at me, don’t ignore me... If it weren’t for Gong Nie, that bastard trapping me in his scheme, along with that traitor in my team and those people colluding inside and out, how could I have lost!"

To her explanation, rant, and hindsight, Sui Yi simply said, "The process doesn’t matter."

Gong Jiu instantly deflated.

Flower Demon didn’t bother with him either, adding, "The attackers were indeed perverse, I really don’t know where Second Master Gong got such forces."

Sui Yi’s brows furrowed, "Maybe it’s his partner..."

"Very likely, if he has such strong subordinates, they might even force the Palace Family into a corner... Right, Gong Jiu?"

Although Gong Jiu was reluctant to admit it, he nodded, "Those living beings’ combat power is monstrous, like they’re on drugs, extremely fierce in battle, especially that woman... Abnormally strong, she subdued several of us in a second."

That woman? Sui Yi’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing this; suddenly, she asked, "The woman you’re talking about, does she have short hair or long hair?"

Could it be that foreign organization? Indeed, in terms of combat power, it’s monstrous...

The woman with short hair was not less powerful than her, and even more so, she possessed ferocious assassination combat skills, like a humanoid weapon.

Sui Yi looked at Gong Jiu, heard him say, "Long... long hair..."

Hmm, not that person? But long hair is long hair; what’s this guy trembling about... and what is that expression!

Sui Yi’s eyes flashed, and she side-stepped, only to see a long, thick, beautiful strand of hair hanging from a beam connected to the entrance of the secret passage.

Hanging from above.

The hair was beautiful.

But nothing else could be seen, just the hair...

The hair was very long, about two meters...

Gong Jiu and others were utterly silent, Sui Yi also made a sign that meant...

Danger!

For Sui Yi to signal danger, it meant this terrifying "long hair" was indeed extremely dangerous.

Gong Jiu and the others had already been disarmed, now only left with their bare hands, if that "long hair" erupted, in such a narrow space, they would undoubtedly die!

So all they could do was stay quiet, elevated to the utmost peak of alertness...

Here, the only one with high-end combat power was Sui Yi...

Sui Yi’s hand moved slightly, and the people slowly began retreating...

The hair didn’t move, no, something moved; it was a face, sliding out from behind the hair, as if flattening against the inside of the wall, the hair sliding out first, then the face...

Then the head, inching out as if growing from within the hair...

This head, this face, that neck, that body...

Without legs, without arms, just a white, soft long body, almost like a human, at first glance maybe resembling a white radish, but who dared treat it as a mere radish?

A white radish with two meters of hair?

Inch by inch falling...

Finally, it seemed to hang from that beam...

That face... had no face.

The faces of Gong Jiu and the others turned pale.

What is this thing?

A ghost? It shouldn’t be this creepy~

Or...

Watching that unrelated snowy white face, Sui Yi suddenly said, "Should I call you Demon God, or Ao Yin?"

With just one phrase, the face cracked audibly down the middle, revealing dozens of sharp teeth gleaming white...

Whoosh!

It suddenly lunged outward!

Toward Sui Yi’s head...

Didn’t you know Ao Yin adores human brains?

And particularly the head of the one who had once hurt it... It must taste delicious...

Ao Yin’s mouth had already bitten onto the Demon Que right in front of Sui Yi, the force was terrifying, sending Sui Yi crashing against the wall!

"Hou, get them out!"

At Sui Yi’s command, Gong Jiu and the others, without a moment’s hesitation, all ran towards that exit...

This was understanding, it was reason, but also unconditional trust in her...

At the entrance, Gong Jiu and the others only heard intense fighting noises coming from behind.

That soft body, actually possessed beast-like strength and speed, and... sharp weapons!

Clang!!

Sui Yi was slammed against the wall again, her feet kicked, a reverse turn, and a whirl of blade light scattered amidst Flying Sand and Moving Rock!

Ao Yin’s body rebounded between the walls, its occasionally white body sprouting sharp fangs like swords and knives, hardly resembling a normal creature, but rather a constantly transforming monster.

Sui Yi realized she had underestimated its combat ability.

At full power, she was no match for it!

Then... death was approaching!

After being hurled out by Ao Yin again...

At the outer chamber’s entrance, Gong Jiu and the others had not fled far, for they heard a voice coming from behind them.

A thunderous boom.

Everyone’s footsteps halted.

Gong Jiu and Hou sprinted back into that room.

The inner room door... closed.

NO!!! Sui Yi!

Gong Jiu was frantic!

While Flower Demon saw something too, but what she saw was not the closing of the inner room door, but a person.

A woman.

The woman who had once trampled them into dust...

She was slowly walking from the corridor, the long dagger at her waist looking incredibly sleek, her long military boots making no sound.

That gaze was ice-cold and merciless, her short hair dashing yet also ruthless.

Flower Demon took a deep breath, suddenly hearing something...

Uh, Brother Ma started reciting something...

"Namah Amitabha, Unlimited Heavenly Venerate, Holy Mother Maria, Almighty Jesus, Invincible Brother Chun, please grant me strength..."

At that moment.

A thunderous boom!

Another loud boom.

From the end of the corridor, the same side where that woman had appeared, where the main tomb lay...

Such a loud noise, there was probably only one possibility.

The coffin... had fallen!
