Imperial Treasure

Chapter 590 - 382: Fall (Back to Millennium He’s Jade +)

——————————

The coffin hanging in midair, with its lid already on the ground, remained motionless. Regardless of their vision, at this height, everyone could always see a hand suddenly slap onto the side of the coffin. It was more accurate to say, it grabbed the plank.

"Is that a hand?" Liang Qing smirked, "It looks more like.. a tentacle."

Sticky and flesh-like, a tentacle.

It reminded her of an octopus from the depths of the sea.

She hoped what was inside.. wasn’t an octopus.

The tentacle, sticky, clung to the side of the coffin, oozing viscous fluid through the gaps between what seemed like fingers. The color was unclear, somewhat turbid, trickling down the side of the coffin and hitting the floor..

Sui Yi watched it hit the floor, instinctively gripping Demon Que and scanning the surrounding environment.

Corpse Hover and the Green-Haired Rice Dumplings had sealed their escape route at some point, while on the other side, the foreigners seemed to be intentionally trapping them as well..

In short, they were not meant to leave.

Were they supposed to take someone down with them in case of death?

Or did they intend to use her and the young man’s power to combat this monster, then seize the treasures?

The calculations were loud and clear and likely to succeed, since Zuo Wei and the others couldn’t directly escape at the moment.

"Han Gao and the others are still knocked out over there..."

"I need to figure out which restrooms they’re in," Gong Jiu could only crack this kind of joke to amuse herself at this point.

The situation was dangerous, she could feel it, and so could Sui Yi.

After it hit the floor.. hiss, hiss, hiss!

The stone floor was corroded, creating a small hole.

"Oh my god, it’s an alien!" The fat man almost scared himself to death.

"Fatso, don’t freak out, it should only be the liquid from inside the coffin, some coffins even contain mercury, you know, those ancient folks had quite the..." Nalan’s words were cut off before she swallowed them.

Because the ancient corpse inside the coffin popped its head out.. completely hairless, with flesh-like, uneven skin resembling countless holes, but its eyes, nose, and mouth were distinct..

Its chin seemed to be wriggling..

It was somewhat reminiscent of the octopus captain from the Caribbean Pirates in the Black Pearl..

However, the octopus captain seemed cuter in comparison, at least it didn’t open its mouth and abruptly spew a lump of murky, undefined substance mixed with liquid, which splashed loudly onto the ground.

This lump felt as though it had splashed on everyone’s hearts, chilling and slippery, which then made them nauseous.

"Fire!"

Bang, bang, bang!

Bullets burst out, one after another!

Desperate to turn it into a sieve!

"Run!"

Gong Jiu and Flower Demon didn’t run towards Corpse Hover, but towards the tunnel they and Anayi had come from earlier...

Han Gao and his group were naturally inside.

Sui Yi and another person covered the rear, while the sect members and those foreigners weren’t on this side, too far to catch up, but the sect members were restless and trying to stop them..

"Why stop them? Isn’t dealing with this ghostly thing enough? Don’t make enemies," Luo Xiuxian, regardless of Uncle Han’s dark expression, sternly shouted. Hearing this, the others backed off, knowing they were no match for Sui Yi.

Uncle Han gave Luo Xiuxian a sinister look but said nothing.

However, Gong Jiu and another person were blocked in the blink of an eye!

A person emerged from the tunnel.

Short-haired woman!

"Damn it, it’s that crazy woman! Sui Yi, you deal with her!" Gong Jiu and another person quickly retreated...

Sui Yi had no choice but to meet the challenge, Demon Que striking with a clang!

The crisp sound echoed, both took a step back and went at it again!

Clang, clang!

The swordplay was rapid, like the cry of an eagle, surprising the foreigners watching from a distance.

"That woman is actually holding her own against her..."

"Mr. Fei, if we don’t deal with this woman..."

"Never mind her, Yi will handle her... We should focus on this monster first..." The foreigner smirked, then suddenly narrowed his eyes, "or perhaps we could try a different approach..."

"You guys go find them, I will follow shortly" Sui Yi didn’t want Gong Jiu and the others to just wait here.

Gong Jiu and the others didn’t hesitate, knowing that at least Sui Yi’s strength here was top-tier, and her self-preservation should be assured. If she could not ensure her safety, them staying would be a burden.

Go!

Go? No way out!

Ahh~~

When the scream came, Gong Jiu instinctively turned her head only to see a person, unclear from which side, suddenly had a lump rising on his face. The lump was moving, crawling from the chin to below the eyes.. He tilted his face, his hand reaching to scratch his skin, and shockingly tore off half of his skin, revealing a yellowish... worm? At a glance, it looked like a tentacle!
