The Holy Maiden Uncovers My Coffin When I Just Become An Emperor's Corpse-Chapter 38 - Death penalties can be avoided, but living penalties are hard to escape!

In an instant, a chill struck from behind.

Qing Feng and Qing Yun felt a coldness spread through their bodies, a coolness rising from their tailbones.

It shot straight to their heads, making their hair stand on end.

They had been caught in another lie!

“Are they all Saints’ Eyes, able to see through this too?”

The two were terrified, dropping to their knees, bodies trembling.

“We were wrong, we were wrong.

In fact, Qing Yun and I already know the location of the Saint’s Tomb; we’ve even seen the entrance.” Qing Feng said anxiously.

When he spoke, apart from Yang Yan, everyone else showed anger on their faces.

The most furious among them was Leng Biyue!

If not for the past good relations between the Fairy Sect and the Daoist Sect,

to prevent talent from dwindling in the Daoist Sect, she would have not pleaded on their behalf!

To save their lives!

Had Zhan Wuchang not exposed the lies of Qing Feng and Qing Yun,

Yang Yan would have already spoken, issuing a kill-on-sight order to slay them.

“You two dare deceive the master, you truly deserve death!” Leng Biyue rebuked.

Qing Feng and Qing Yun prostrated on the ground.

“Saintess Leng, we’re sorry.

We two were greedy for a moment and betrayed your kindness.” Qing Yun apologized.

They knew well that Leng Biyue’s intercession was to let them survive.

But the Saint’s Tomb was too important!

If they could open the Saint’s Tomb and acquire the Holy Artifacts within,

their future would be limitless.

“We were momentarily bewitched, please, give us another chance.” Qing Feng pleaded.

“We will definitely reveal the location of the Saint’s Tomb and take you there.”

Yang Yan’s gaze shifted.

“I’ll give you a chance to redeem your sins!

However, you can escape the death penalty but not punishment!

Shui Zhonglan!

Sever one arm from each of them as a warning.

If there’s another concealment or deceit, they will be killed directly.” he commanded.

As soon as he finished speaking, Qing Feng and Qing Yun hadn’t reacted yet.

A sword was thrust from the void, Sword Qi ravaging the air.

It severed one arm on each of their sides.

Two arms flew off, leaving their faces utterly pale and bloodless.

Even though they were injured, they didn’t resist, nor did they dare to even think about it.

Should they dare, they knew!

Death would descend upon them, killing them instantly!

“Thank you, master, for your mercy!” Qing Feng and Qing Yun ignored their injuries and knelt to thank him.

Yang Yan nodded slightly.

“Get up.”

“Yes.”

Qing Feng and Qing Yun took out medicines, applying them to their severed arms, and the wounds rapidly healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Leng Biyue then took out a sedan chair and placed it on the ground.

This sedan chair was larger and more luxurious.

“Master, please rest inside,” she said.

Yang Yan slowly walked in, followed by Shui Zhonglan, Leng Biyue, Xue Ni Chang, Jing Yin, Jingxin, and Little Flower, along with the Unicorn Pegasus.

Zhan Tianyi, Zhan Wuchang, Gu, and Ling Hu Chongtian lifted the sedan chair.

They released Profound Qi to protect it.

Li Wan Hua stood by the sedan chair like a steward.

“Speak!” Leng Biyue’s voice came from inside the sedan chair.

She peeled a longan and placed it on a crystal plate.

The plump, round fruit exuded a fragrant aroma.

Not far away, Little Flower, softly humming to delight Yang Yan, craved it intensely.

Yang Yan lay beside her, flicking his fingers gently.

The fruit flew out and landed in Little Flower’s hand.

“It’s your reward.

Eat up and sing well,” he said quietly.

Little Flower’s eyes sparkled.

“Thank you, master.”

She popped the longan into her mouth, humming softly before she even finished eating.

Outside the sedan chair, Qing Yun and Qing Feng started recounting the story of the Saint’s Tomb.

“Master, the tomb is located within the mountains ahead.

Since I entered yesterday, I noticed that there were transmitters of Saint Daoism formed by Saint Dao Rhythm, often walking through the darkness.

Chanting the Saint’s skills throughout the entire mountain range.

Attracting the sentient beings there to believe in the Saints and become followers of the Saints,” Qing Feng said.

“Yes, many Exotic Beasts and demon beasts gather within the mountain range.

At night, they kneel on the ground to hear the preaching of the Saint Dao Rhythm.

The Daoist Sect’s Saint Heir, the Demon Path’s Witch, and Little Sword God all know about this.

But they don’t know the exact location of the Saint’s Tomb.

Qing Feng and I investigated for some time.

We observed all the mountains and finally discovered some traces,” Qing Yun continued.

“Using the Daoist Heavenly Master Skill, observing the Five Elements, determining Yin and Yang.

Arranging the Eight Trigrams to find dragons and mountains.

Eventually discovering that the Saint’s Tomb is at the deepest part of a river at the base of the mountains.

Qing Feng and I dove down, intending to enter the Saint’s Tomb and seize the Treasure.

But after entering, we found demon beasts guarding the river.

Before we could get close, a tempest blew us back to the shore.”

Qing Feng felt rather despondent at this point.

If they could have entered back then, there wouldn’t be an issue of severed arms now.

“If we had reached the cultivation level of a Heavenly Master and activated the Feng Shui Shift Technique,

we could have easily moved the river and entered the Saint’s Tomb,” Qing Yun said.

The river!

“The master said to take us there directly,” Leng Biyue’s voice came out.

Qing Feng bowed.

“Master, I suggest we enter at night.

Otherwise, if so many of us go like this, we’ll surely attract the attention of the Demon Path’s people, Little Sword God Ao Tian, and the Daoist Sect’s Saint Heir.

Then, they’ll follow us.

They’ll compete with us for the Treasure, and it’ll be too troublesome,” he advised.

Yang Yan’s gaze was unworldly.

“No worries, it would be perfect if they showed up.

I’m planning to defeat them, rise to First on the Human List, and seize the inheritance of the Immortal Dao Emperor!”

Qing Feng and Qing Yun were startled.

“The master is truly bold and confident!”

They lowered their heads.

“Yes.”

Then they together led the way, guiding the group forward into the mountains.

Inside the mountains, the atmosphere was eerie and strange.

Even in broad daylight, there wasn’t a single bird call!

“Look!” Qing Feng pointed not far away.

An earthbound demon beast lay prostrate on the ground, seemingly worshiping with a devout expression.

“The Saint buried here seems quite sinister.

Everyone, be careful!” Seeing this, the Divine Bone of the Divine Race reminded everyone present.

Everyone there unanimously felt that his warning was without question.

“Hehe, Zuo Yuandao, your Taoist Body, and Dao Heart are not that remarkable after all.

Before my seductive bone, they’ve all wavered.” A charming voice came from deep within the forest.

The crowd held their breath, hearing the words and knowing who it was.

Ranked third on the Human List, Chu Mei’er!

One of the three major demonesses of the Demon Path!

An existence with an Innate Seductive Bone!

And the Zuo Yuandao she mentioned was the Saint Heir of the Daoist Sect!

“You’ve lost.

Quickly hand over your Dao Heart, Daoist Sword!”

Leng Biyue looked toward Yang Yan.

“Master, should we go over and have a look?”

“Let’s go.”

“Yes!”

Leng Biyue issued the command.

“The master wants you to go!”
