Imperial Treasure

Chapter 586 - 380: Traitor Meets Traitor Again!

————————

The young man looked at Sui Yi, who naturally didn’t care about others’ gazes, so he just focused on the hole. After waiting for a while, the young man didn’t wait for her to play the most dazzling ethnic style...

But he didn’t need the most dazzling ethnic style, because he had already understood what Sui Yi meant...

Meanwhile, a slit appeared in the neck of the head, revealing more whiskers, and these whiskers continued to spread downward...

Since these whiskers were alive, connecting one end to Gou Heng and the other to Bai Xi, they were not only for hanging coffins, but their greater purpose was to transfer the essence from Bai Xi’s body. Previously they could do this slowly, but now that these people had intruded, especially her and the young man, it undoubtedly posed a great threat, and they would need to speed up the transfer...

If that was the case, this small hole wouldn’t suffice.

So many whiskers, when transferring the essence, were enough to stretch the hole wide open...

Zuo Wei and the young man, even working together, couldn’t crack open Bai Xi’s skull to pull out the whiskers.

They could only wait!

So...

Below, in the Main Tomb Chamber, the fatty and his companions were virtually left with nowhere to hide, absolutely decimated by the swarm of scorpions.

"Quick, hurry up, light the fire!"

"Damn it! There are too many scorpions...

Whir!

One after another, they pulled out their special fire guns or fire rods. Scorpions indeed feared fire, but the numbers were too overwhelming...

Ah!

Soon, someone screamed in agony!

The fatty turned his head only to see someone with a scorpion crawling on his face, seemingly stung at once. After a scream, the person flung the scorpion off... unfortunately, right towards the fatty...

"Oh for heaven’s sake! Buddy, you’re really too...

Upon looking, the fatty saw that person’s face had turned green, veins bulging, twisting his facial features in agony before he collapsed to the ground...

"Damn it! This poison is too deadly, one sting and you’re gone! My butt is clenching in fear, let’s get out of here, fast!"

"Fatso, stop your bloody whining; if you’re so capable, you go first!" Nalan couldn’t stand the fatty’s constant moaning and scolded him with a sneer.

"I..." the fatty obviously lacked the courage... and now these scorpions had formed several layers above and below, spreading towards them and cornering them...

The fire guns could intimidate them, but they weren’t invincible; before long, the fire guns’ energy would be depleted, and then they...

Skinny Waist and his people had actually taken the opportunity to run out earlier... At this moment, they were watching from the perimeter as those scorpions encircled them...

"Why aren’t the scorpions attacking them?"

"They must have something special on them that repels the scorpions...

"Dammit! If I had known, I would have caught one person to use as an amulet...

But it was all too late now.

Already, they were about to be devoured by the scorpions...

"Heavens, what’s that?"

They looked up to see the roof flood down with a dense mass of ropes... No, not ropes, they were wriggling and twisting, definitely not ropes at all!

They were living things!

"There’s definitely something wrong up there!"

"Look, they’re landing on the coffin!"

The whiskers, like snakes, wrapped around the coffin and one by one burrowed into the small holes, probably squeezing in, all of them pushing...

Then, the whiskers one by one became thicker, as if something had been injected into them...

You could think of it as withered hoses becoming plump and full after being filled with water, and with so many whiskers, what were they flushing into that coffin?

At this moment, Yhan Qingwu frowned, "These scorpions are scared"

Indeed, everyone looked and saw that the previously fierce scorpions, which had killed many of their people, were now receding in fear as if they sensed something, avoiding the coffin and even ignoring them, instead crawling up the walls, as if desperately trying to burrow in...

With the threat of the scorpions gone, the fatty and his comrades felt even more terrified.

Was the coffin... moving?

Second Master Gong’s followers were also unsettled; Corpse Hover heard his Green-Haired Rice Dumplings growling and frowned, "There’s something inside that coffin that scares it... seems to be alive, too. Second Master, are you sure there’s...

But Second Master Gong’s eyes were ablaze with a passion, as if burning with fire, "This is right, just right..."

As if possessed, "Look, it’s a Warring States Thousand-Year Ancient Coffin with a living thing inside... What does that tell us? It means Immortality! There really is Immortality in this world!"

As true as that might be, it was still unclear what kind of creature was inside...

"What if there’s a two-thousand-year Immortal Old Rice Dumpling inside? All of us combined wouldn’t be enough to fill its crevices... Anyway, this old man is going make a move first..." Mount Mover always knew when to advance or retreat and cherished his life greatly, so given the dire situation, he was ready to turn tail and leave...
