Chapter 773 - Wei Wei And His Janus-faced Highness (1/2)

Qing Shan was hopeless because the more one struggled in the spider web, the tighter it would bind.

The overwhelming stench of blood filled the mausoleum.

Qing Shan and Qing Shui’s bloodied bodies dangled above like the other corpses, in a creepily awkward manner. The arch on their face were no smiles, but simply an illusion made by the spider webs.

The younger exorcists threw up upon setting their eyes on this sickening scene.

Even Old Li’s face had turned as white as sheets.

After witnessing this dreadful sight, n.o.body dared to make any careless moves. However, their trembling eyes gave away their shock and fear.

This royal tomb had too many uncontrollable variables.

As the old saying goes, they would not be frightened if they were to encounter demons or ghouls.

However, they were like sitting ducks in this terrifyingly treacherous royal tomb and no one could predict what would happen next.

“What do we do now?”

The road ahead was clearly sealed.

After looking at Qing Shan and Qing Shui’s bodies, they finally understood the reason behind the mountains of corpses in there.

Not all of these remains were carried here from other places.

Most of them were probably tangled by the spider webs and were hung from the ceiling when they were pa.s.sing through here. Over 40 corpses could be seen dangling here.

They must have met the same fate as Qing Shan and Qing Shui, killed by the hidden spider’s webs as they journeyed through here.

Furthermore, the next tomb entrance was a room away from them. It would take them over ten steps to reach it, but no one knew what could happen in between.

Some of the exorcists wiped the sweat off their foreheads and exclaimed under their breath, “It’s useless, we’ll never get to the main coffin. We should escape while everyone is alive!”

“That’s right!” Someone agreed and said, “The rules stated that all partic.i.p.ants are allowed to resign from the match, so I want to leave too!”

About 10 of the approximately 30 partic.i.p.ants firmly intended to leave, some had even lowered their heads to start packing. Since they were not going to win, it would be better to save themselves by retreating now. After all, n.o.body knew what was waiting for them if they continued their journey.

In a flash, a few strings of spider silk slaughtered two people before their eyes.

Moreover, they had not seen this creature that was lurking in the royal tomb.

The thought of a gigantic spider, hiding in the royal tomb and watching them from the dark, sent chills down their spine.

Ni Biao did not stop them because it would be more beneficial if more of them quit. Although the thought of leaving had crossed his mind too, the journey back did not seem safe either.

On the other hand, Helian Wei Wei acted differently. She raised her gaze and calmly interrupted their fantasy, saying, “It’s impossible to return.”
