My Sexy CEO Wife

Chapter 437 - 434: The Mysterious Visitor

Inside the mysterious bronze coffin.

Darkness enveloped everything.

Filled with a mysterious aura, it exuded a strong sense of oppression.

Gao Fei heard a very strange voice... to be precise, a stream of mental power intruded into his mind, greeting him and giving Gao Fei quite a fright.

Gao Fei tensed up, carefully releasing his mental power, inching along in his search of the bronze coffin... Oh, there was someone across from him, Chen San... Ah, and another person in the corner, Liu Qing... Gao Fei meticulously searched the bronze coffin with his mental power and did not discover anything unusual.

Strange!

Someone just greeted me, didn't they? Could it be that I'm too exhausted recently and hallucinated?

Gao Fei began to doubt his own judgment...

"How is it?" Xuan Jizi asked, "Did you find anything?"

Gao Fei shook his head, responding with mental power: "Nothing at all."

"No discovery? Could there be a mistake?" Xuan Jizi said, "In a closed space, shrouded by darkness, it's easy to experience illusions."

"Maybe it was an illusion," Gao Fei nodded, "Perhaps I've been too tired lately, which led to the hallucination..."

"Hurry up and signal the Great Demon, Immortal Master Huang, to come rescue you," Xuan Jizi said, "Remember, make sure Immortal Master Huang eliminates everyone, and your relationship with him must not be exposed, or you'll be in big trouble."

"Right, I'll signal to Immortal Master Huang now." To avoid detection by others, Gao Fei had specifically instructed Immortal Master Huang to stay away from him, and not to show up without his signal. This was the agreement between Gao Fei and Immortal Master Huang. Gao Fei had control over a strand of Immortal Master Huang's soul and could take his life at any time, so Gao Fei was not worried at all that Immortal Master Huang would abandon him.

Just as Gao Fei was about to contact Immortal Master Huang, something hair-raising occurred.

"Hey!" An unfathomable stream of mental power invaded Gao Fei's mind.

Who! Who is it! This time Gao Fei heard it clearly, it was someone greeting him, surely not a delusion!

But just now... he hadn't detected anyone else?

While Gao Fei was in the throes of panic, that mental power spoke again.

"Don't be nervous, I won't harm you." The voice was somewhat old and raspy, sounding a bit harsh on the ears.

"Who are you?" Gao Fei inquired with mental power.

"What do you think?"

"I can't guess!"

"Try guessing again! Maybe you'll get it right this time!"

"...Who are you really? Why are you here?"

"This is my home, of course, I live here," the old voice chuckled, "Strictly speaking, you should thank me. Without my permission, you couldn't have entered this bronze coffin. If you hadn't entered the bronze coffin, you would have been torn apart by the tsunami outside. I saved your life."

Gao Fei's mouth fell open, "What are you saying? The bronze coffin is your home? You are... "

"I am the master of the bronze coffin, well, another way to put it is... the bronze coffin was crafted by me," the old voice declared. "Back then, to craft this bronze coffin, I exhausted a great deal of my spirit. It took me a whole century to succeed. On the surface, the coffin seems to be made of bronze, but that's not the case; bronze is only a minor part of the materials. I added many rare materials, such as meteorites from outer space, mysterious iron buried deep underground, millennium-old ice... and so on, too many to list. In short, crafting this bronze coffin was no easy task, but fortunately, in the end, I succeeded."

"You're actually the master of the bronze coffin..." Gao Fei twitched the corner of his mouth sharply, "When I found the bronze coffin, there was a... green-haired zombie inside it... it wouldn't happen to be you, would it... "

"It's not me," the old voice replied. "However, it is related to me."

"Related? What kind of relationship?" Gao Fei asked.

"It is one of my avatars," said the old voice, answering readily, "An avatar, you know? It's... how should I explain this... this is a rather profound topic, not so easy to explain all at once..."

"I understand, you don't have to explain," Gao Fei nodded, "I've perused ancient texts, which mention avatars. It is said that during Ancient Times, there were powerful beings capable of creating several avatars. Each avatar had flesh and blood, independent thought and consciousness, and was also very strong... it's just that, later on, the methods of refining avatars were lost... " Gao Fei sighed, reflecting on the fact that during the Ancient Times, Cultivate Immortality Spells were diverse and powerful, but later on, due to special reasons, many spells were lost, much to the regret of all cultivators.

"Good that you understand," the old voice said, "I won't explain in detail then."

"Senior, I'm truly sorry, I... I killed your avatar," Gao Fei admitted sheepishly, "Mainly because at that time..."

"You don't have to explain; I understand," the old voice interjected, "My avatar turned into a zombie and actively attacked you, so it was only natural for you to kill it."

"Ah?" Gao Fei was surprised at how reasonable the old voice was.

"Actually, the avatar lying in the coffin was a failed product. It's no big loss that it's gone; I don't feel heartbroken at all," the old voice sighed softly.

Gao Fei was taken aback, "A failed product?"

"Young man, do you know why I crafted the bronze coffin?"

"I don't know."

"The reason I crafted the bronze coffin was... to have a contingency plan, to leave myself an extra path to survival."

"An extra path?" Gao Fei didn't understand.

"In my early years, I acted recklessly and made many enemies. I feared I might be targeted by them, so to guard against the worst, I crafted this bronze coffin. This bronze coffin boasts miraculous effects. No matter how severe the injuries you suffer, as long as you have a breath left, it can bring you back to life. Spend a few days inside, and your wounds will heal," he explained.

"Is it really that miraculous?" Gao Fei sounded somewhat incredulous.

"If you don't believe it, you can try it out when you get the chance. I guarantee that after trying it, you'll fall in love with the bronze coffin," the old voice chuckled.

Fall in love with the bronze coffin? Gao Fei shivered. I definitely don't have that kind of hobby.

"Besides healing, the bronze coffin also nourishes the divine sense. If you spend a long time inside, your divine sense will become extraordinarily strong. You can cultivate immortality inside the bronze coffin in the future; I guarantee your progress will be twice as effective," said the old voice, pausing for a moment before resuming, "As it turned out, my concerns were justified! A group of powerful enemies took hostage of my friends and family to force me to appear, then used despicable means to ambush me. In the end, I killed all of my enemies, but my physical body also collapsed, and only a strand of my soul remained..."
