Imperial Treasure

Chapter 593 - 383: That’s Not Your Mom (the previous Chapter was 382, only the - name was wrong)_2

That expression, that aura... so dark and foreboding, a single glance could unsettle the heart...

And as he turned his face... he didn’t care about the youth and Yi, instead he stared straight at... Sui Yi and the others,

locking onto just one person.

His mouth moved slightly.

"Jiujiu... have you finally come to find Mommy~"

The voice of a woman, and quite gentle at that...

Yet it was Second Master Gong who uttered it, immediately giving Fatty and the others the eerie sensation of being back in the tomb chamber where Skinny Waist had been possessed...

Gong Jiu’s face changed!

She couldn’t help but walk out.

"Idiot, that’s not your mom! You..." Flower Demon had just started to shout when Sui Yi covered her mouth and shook his head: "She’s already beguiled, rashly calling out to her will agitate her mind..."

A normal person would become mentally disturbed, while a martial artist might be driven to madness.

Flower Demon’s face fell: "Then what do we do, that Gong Nie clearly has something evil inside him..."

"We catch the ghost," Sui Yi frowned slightly, "There is something odd about him... You guys wait here and act according to the situation."

Having said that, Sui Yi followed Gong Jiu, accompanying her towards that direction...

At this moment, the other people likewise felt heavy tension due to this scene. Mr. Fei, upon seeing Yi’s gestures, knew that that rascal Second Master had evil inside him, and since the coffin was also fraught with danger, he, too, held back from acting.

When one held back, the others did as well.

Thus, everyone’s gazes followed the infatuated Gong Jiu along with Sui Yi by her side...

After a moment, Gong Jiu reached the side of the coffin, and Sui Yi also arrived, exchanging a look with the youth, both imperceptibly glancing towards Bai Xi and finally setting their eyes on the coffin.

Inside the coffin, Second Master Gong, a grown man, sat occupying about half the space, along with a skeleton.

The skeleton appeared quite short and thin, seemingly that of a fourteen or fifteen-year-old.

Its bones were delicate and tinged with blue, untainted by even a speck of filth.

Was this Gou Heng?

Sui Yi was perplexed, yet he didn’t dwell on it, for at that moment, Second Master Gong was only showing Gong Jiu, who drew near, a smile that seemed gentle but was eerily unsettling.

"Little Jiu, come here... let Mommy hold you.."

The youth and Yi stood by, the former with a furrowed brow and the latter with a lightly raised eyebrow, both looking at Sui Yi.

Sui Yi did not speak, simply letting Gong Jiu walk forward...

Flower Demon and the others felt their hearts nearly leaping out of their chests.

Second Master Gong was like a specter, and if he intended harm to Gong Jiu, then...

Slowly, Gong Jiu had walked right before Second Master Gong...

Second Master Gong reached out his hand, softly saying, "Good child..."

Then,... Gong Jiu landed a punch right on his face!!!

Bang!!!

She kicked Second Master Gong from one end of the coffin to the other, ramming him hard, her gun already aimed at his forehead.

Bang!

A bullet shot out...

At the same time, the youth and Yi took action!

Yi was reaching for the treasure inside the coffin... a rectangular box about three inches in length!

The youth tried to stop her!

Sui Yi didn’t concern himself with those two, because that bullet hadn’t hit Second Master Gong...

Second Master Gong moved unexpectedly fast, sliding forward and like a serpent lunging towards Gong Jiu!

Between the treasure and Gong Jiu, Sui Yi naturally chose Gong Jiu without a moment’s hesitation, Demon Que in hand, stabbing towards Second Master Gong!

Thud!

Second Master Gong was blocked, a flash of ferocity in his eyes, but his obsession with Gong Jiu fuelled an even more vicious offense.

"Gong Jiu, he’s targeting you, dodge..."

"This bastard definitely can’t fully control the Dragon Leading Plate! Sui Yi, get it from his chest!" Gong Jiu had indeed been bewitched earlier, but when Sui Yi, with his Magnetic Sensation, invaded her body while at her side, she snapped back to reality.

In that moment, her mind whirred and she understood why Second Master Gong was so fixated on her.

Given that the Dragon Leading Plate was an heirloom exclusive to the Palace Family, passed down only to the Family Head and their successor who knew how to operate it, Gong Jiu’s father had staunchly refused to teach Second Master Gong how to control it. Now that the Gong Family Head had bestowed the Dragon Leading Plate to Gong Jiu, it was natural that she knew how to use it. Therefore, even if Second Master Gong managed to snatch it, he would still not be able to fully control it.

That was the real reason he hadn’t killed Gong Jiu up till now.

Sui Yi acknowledged with a sound and suddenly quickened his movements, his Inner Strength growing wilder than before.

Yi’s fight with the young man was also extremely fierce; Mr. Fei and the others couldn’t intervene.

The long rectangular box was still inside the coffin...

Whoosh!

Nalan and one of Mr. Fei’s men rushed toward the coffin, reaching out to grab it...

A tendril shot out from beneath another head, plunging through the neck, Phut!

It pierced directly through that man’s chest...

Nalan’s face changed drastically, he hastily retreated, and a tendril curled around the rectangular box, then a person emerged from under the head.

That monster.

At arm’s length, Sui Yi, Gong Jiu, Second Master Gong, and even Yi and the young man were less than five meters away from the monster!

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

An abundance of tentacles, a myriad of tiny insects began to emerge en masse...

Run fast!!

With Gong Jiu the weakest among them, Sui Yi used Yaofei to slash through the tendrils, trying to kick Gong Jiu to safety, but he saw that Second Master Gong had already lunged at Gong Jiu.

Second Master Gong had a knife in his hand, and without a word, he plunged it toward Gong Jiu’s chest...

"Dragon Leading Plate, the heart of the Nine Palaces can be broken! Hand it over"

The blade had barely entered her chest when blood began to stain her clothes...

From a distance, Flower Demon’s legs gave out...

"Idiot Gong!!"

In a daze, Gong Jiu only saw a glint in Sui Yi’s eyes as if a stream of light flashed by; then...

Whoosh~~ a sword, slicing down!

A sword gleamed with a peculiarly ferocious blood light; the sword beam, solid for three meters, slicing through the ground and flashing past in front of Gong Jiu...

Then...

Phut!

Second Master Gong’s arm, reaching for Gong Jiu, was instantly severed!

Turning around, Sui Yi raised his foot and kicked the monster that had attempted a sneak attack squarely on its chest...

Boom!

It slammed into Bai Xi’s corpse, shaking the entire thing.

A thunderous crash!

This bold act caught many off-guard.

The monster’s body spurted out lots of disgusting yellow fluid, akin to slime, but quickly, it scrambled up from the ground, unharmed.

While Sui Yi, gripping Yaofei, exuded an aura... as cold as ice!

"A second... personality?" Flower Demon muttered...(To be continued. If you like this work, please visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendation tickets and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please go to m.qidian.com to read.)
