Do Not Offend the Reborn Wicked Wife

Chapter 890: Chapter 890: Is Jiang Wen Inside?

"It’s okay, it’s quite normal."

Long Yue smiled faintly and didn’t feel anything unusual, but Li Qingmu beside her frowned slightly.

He closed his eyes and gently felt around; there wasn’t any energy fluctuation, meaning no traces of someone moving.

If there were any, it would be from the three of them.

But now, there’s a fourth person who moved things?

If he moved something, then what did he move?

"This place is too eerie, we’ve only walked a little way, and who knows what lies ahead?"

Jiang Wen said, his emotions a bit agitated.

Long Yue looked around the stone chamber, contemplating, while Li Qingmu squinted his eyes, saying nothing.

"I... I kind of don’t want to go further."

Jiang Wen took a step back, saying nervously.

Li Qingmu said, "We’ve already come this far; leaving would seem like quitting halfway."

"But it’s too dangerous here; after all, there are ghosts in this place..."

He looked very tense and scared, his voice trembling when he spoke the latter half.

"Perhaps, it’s merely a human?"

A human?

Jiang Wen was stunned, shook his head, "Who could survive in this tomb for so long?"

"Then maybe it’s an animal. Remember those bats we encountered earlier? They guarded this place, and now that we’re inside, they will certainly create some trouble."

"Weren’t they all subdued by you?"

"Ha, that was only on the surface. Who knows how much those little creatures resent me?" Li Qingmu chuckled lightly, walked over, and lightly brushed the marks with his foot, shattering them completely.

His tone was very relaxed, suggesting he wasn’t scared.

After all, ghosts might exist, but definitely not here.

Ghosts, aren’t they just souls?

If there were ghosts, Long Yue would be the first to sense them due to her strong spiritual power. So, it must be something else.

But just what is it? It’s hard to say immediately.

"Let’s look around and see if there’s any mechanism for entering or exiting."

Li Qingmu was genuinely calm, even after encountering such strange occurrences, he showed no signs of fear, intent on continuing further.

Jiang Wen looked panicked, clueless about what to do. He glanced around, wanting to leave, but with Li Qingmu and Long Yue present, they wouldn’t let him leave. Yet staying, who knows what danger lay ahead...

"If it turns really dangerous, we definitely won’t go further. But for now, it doesn’t seem so."

Speaking this, Li Qingmu started searching around.

Jiang Wen watched from the side, saying nothing, while Long Yue assisted him in searching for mechanisms.

"Mr. Jiang, do you think... Mr. Jiang?"

Separated, Long Yue and Li Qingmu were looking for mechanisms, but as Long Yue turned her head, she discovered Jiang Wen had disappeared?

"A Mu!"

She hurried to call Li Qingmu; startled by her voice, he turned his head, not seeing Jiang Wen either.

The two gathered together immediately, fearing something unforeseen might happen.

"Where’s Jiang Wen?"

"I don’t know, he was just here? Did he vanish?"

Long Yue mentioned it, feeling inexplicably anxious.

Li Qingmu’s gaze was deep, sweeping across and then lightly shook his head, "No, he shouldn’t have vanished, but..."

He ran away!

But how did he run off? That direction from which they entered?

Yet, after entering, the door had closed; how would he leave?

"Yue’er, we must have overlooked something..."

Li Qingmu said this, his gaze suddenly turned sharp as he focused on the only coffin where someone might hide.

Is Jiang Wen in the coffin?

But this shouldn’t be!

The coffin was clearly sealed tightly; how did he get inside?

Prompted by this thought, Li Qingmu hurried to check the situation, placing his hand on the coffin lid trying to push it open.

"Whoosh—"

No rough sounds emerged, nor did he expend much effort; in fact, Li Qingmu had exerted too much strength, sending the lid flying.

"Yue’er!"

Opening the coffin lid, Li Qingmu’s pupils shrank dramatically, quickly calling for Long Yue.

"What’s wrong? Ah!"

As Long Yue approached to look, she couldn’t help but gasp.

What did she see?

Inside the coffin lay, not a Princess Consort?

It was clearly Jiang Wen!

He was actually lying inside?

This was too absurd; he was just behind them, how did he suddenly get into the coffin?

"A Mu, be careful!"

Long Yue worried the coffin might undergo some unusual change, hurriedly tugged Li Qingmu away.

Unknowingly, a cold wind blew against their backs.

Gripping Long Yue’s hand tightly, they both glanced backward, instantly feeling their scalp tingle!

Standing behind them, they saw a woman dressed in a magnificent royal robe, hair disheveled!

Her face obscured by thick black hair, making it hard to discern her features clearly, but the hairpins and rings in her hair scattered due to the disarray, appearing fragmented, her royal robe had become tattered from prolonged storage, resembling a fallen aristocrat.

"A... A Mu..."

Long Yue gripped Li Qingmu’s hand tightly, her breathing turning rapid. Despite her having a powerful soul, witnessing this sudden change was jarring to her spirit.

"Don’t be afraid!"

Li Qingmu might have been a bit flustered before, but clutching Long Yue’s hand calmed him down. At this moment, anyone could panic except for his heart!

He bore not only his own life but also Yue’er’s; he must bring her out!

They didn’t retreat backward, but slanted sideways, for behind them was the coffin; retreating toward it could lead to unexpected consequences.

If the coffin sucked them in?

This was quite possible in such a bizarre tomb; anything could happen!

As they remained vigilant, the Mingling Princess Consort began to move a bit, slowly approaching them.

The Mingling Princess Consort didn’t walk; she floated, truly floating, her feet leaving the ground, gradually wafting toward them.

"Mingling... Mingling... Could it mean this?"

Li Qingmu stared deeply; he had grasped some understanding.

This tomb pit contained ominous and eerie elements; they shouldn’t have come!

Jiang Wen brought them here; so, Jiang Wen...

Looking aside, Li Qingmu found Jiang Wen had somehow emerged from the coffin, but his complexion was pale as paper.

Yes, as a paper doll!

A person made from paper!

At this moment, if Li Qingmu and Long Yue didn’t understand, it would be terribly foolish; they had been tricked, someone used a paper doll to impersonate Jiang Wen, luring them here!

Regardless of who it was or what purpose they had, altogether, he had succeeded; now they were in trouble, significant trouble!

This trouble, if not handled well, might trap them here!

Curiosity killed the cat; this time, their curiosity truly led to their downfall...
