Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“If we can’t take anything, it’ll be a total waste of our effort!” said Ma s.h.i.+biao, feeling devastated.
“Is treasure more important than your life?” Gu Ning laughed at Ma s.h.i.+biao.
Ma s.h.i.+biao was struck dumb. Obviously his life mattered more than treasure, but he was still unwilling to give up. “Why are you so sure that there is danger? Perhaps it isn’t dangerous at all!”
“If you don’t believe me, do whatever you want. I won’t join you,” said Gu Ning airily, then she walked back to the edge of the room.
At the edge, she paused and said, “Oh, you better close the coffin now.”
The next second, she directly jumped back to the stone door on the other side.
This time, she didn’t do the run-up, and just made a leap. It seemed that she could do qinggong, which shocked everyone.
Who was this girl? How could she do that?
Nicholas stared at Gu Ning carefully. Now he was almost sure that Gu Ning also had super powers, but he didn’t know what her skills were. It seemed that he must be very cautious when he dealt with Gu Ning.
Now, Ma s.h.i.+biao was left in a dilemma. He didn’t know whether he should open the stone door or not.
Anyway, he called his subordinates to help him close the coffin first. However, an accident happened when they put down the lid.
Ma s.h.i.+biao’s hand suddenly slipped, so the corner of the coffin lid fell first. By coincidence, it fell on the chest of the female corpse and pressed on the Taoist talisman.
Seeing that, Ma s.h.i.+biao was scared and immediately let the lid go and stepped back in case this female ghost woke up.
“Don’t…” Gu Ning tried to stop him, but it was too late.
Gu Ning was furious.
Actually, if he could carefully put the lid in place, it would be fine, but the Taoist talisman was removed after he moved his hands.
All of a sudden, the female body suddenly opened her eyes. It directly shook off the coffin lid on its body and flew out of the coffin.
Ma s.h.i.+biao and his subordinates were terrified.
At this moment, Gu Ning showed surprise. She couldn’t believe this female ghost…
No, it shouldn’t be a female ghost, because it was alive and Gu Ning sensed that she was a cultivator.
Even Gu Ning was amazed at this time.
Once the woman was out, she directly attacked Ma s.h.i.+biao and his subordinates because she felt that they woke her up.
Ma s.h.i.+biao was frightened, but he used to be a professional killer, so he was still able to fight back.
Out of great desire to survive, he did his best to deal with this woman.
He was strong, so the woman couldn’t defeat him within a short time, but his subordinates were much weaker and were soon beaten by the woman.
Gu Ning had no intention of helping them right now; she knew that Nicholas would do that. They were a team after all, so Nicholas shouldn’t be willing to watch Ma s.h.i.+biao being injured.
When Nicholas saw that Ma s.h.i.+biao was about to lose, he joined the fight. He had a good relations.h.i.+p with Ma s.h.i.+biao, so he wouldn’t let him be injured right in front of him. However, even though Nicholas joined the fight, the two of them still couldn’t defeat the woman. It was barely a draw.
“Miss Gu, come and help us! If you don’t team up with us, you won’t be able to escape after we lose.” Ma s.h.i.+biao shouted to Gu Ning.
“I don’t think so. I can figure out a way and leave,” said Gu Ning. Knowing that the woman was alive and wasn’t a ghost, she wasn’t worried at all. Therefore, she decided to let the woman injure them before she caught them.
“You…” Ma s.h.i.+biao was mad.
“None of you can escape!” said the woman.
They had intruded into their place and interrupted them, so it was impossible for them to safely leave.
“You can’t blame me for that. Although I intruded, I told them not to move the coffins. They wouldn’t listen. Since you’re not dead, why must you lie in the coffin all the time? Why don’t you go out and visit the beautiful world?” Gu Ning said as if she was innocent. She mentioned aloud that this woman actually wasn’t dead.
Not dead?
Nicholas and Ma s.h.i.+biao were shocked. If this female “ghost” wasn’t dead, it meant that she wasn’t really a ghost.
Nicholas couldn’t judge whether this woman was still alive or already dead, but she had lain in the coffin for a long time. She couldn’t be a living person, so he believed that she was a ghost. However, Gu Ning said that the woman wasn’t dead.
In fact, Gu Ning thought it was a ghost at the beginning, but she sensed that she was a cultivator after the Taoist talisman was removed.
Nicholas and Ma s.h.i.+biao were confused. If this woman wasn’t dead, why did she lie in the coffin? Anyway, there must be a reason for that.
The woman was also astonished. “How could you know that I’m not dead?”
“Because I sense the same breath of a cultivator from you,” said Gu Ning and immediately released the breath of a cultivator.
The woman was surprised to know that Gu Ning was also a cultivator. However, Gu Ning didn’t seem to be at a high level. How could she hide her breath as a cultivator? Was she actually at a very high level to be able to hide her breath as a cultivator?
Thinking of that, the woman was more surprised.
Even if Gu Ning was at a very high level and could hide her abilities, the woman wasn’t fully convinced because Gu Ning was too young to do that.
There were young cultivators who were at a very high level, but there were very few of them. So it was hard for the woman to believe it.
“Why didn’t I sense your breath of a cultivator earlier?” asked the woman.
“I hid it,” said Gu Ning.. She knew that the woman misunderstood her, but she didn’t bother to explain.
