Even if one knew nothing would come out of the coffin, one would still feel an illusion if they looked at it for too long. When one wanted to look away, they would feel that their body was extremely hard, and there was no way to look away.
I felt as though I couldn't say it out loud and that I was instantly surrounded. No matter how hard I tried, I was unable to shift my gaze away and instead, had the illusion of wanting to go up and greet him.
When I lifted one foot, I felt a cool breeze behind my back, and a pain in my wrist, as if a slender silver needle had plunged into my flesh.
Ah!
I cried out, unconsciously covering my sore spot.
His consciousness also gradually recovered. With a face full of fear, he looked at Luoyang and asked, ”What did I do just now?”
Luanyang looked at me with a complicated gaze. However, she didn't have any intention of lying to me. ”You wanted to go into the coffin just now. Did you go in there before?”
I looked at Luoyang blankly. I didn't know why he was asking this question, but could it be that the coffin would recognize someone just because I entered it once?
”Do you mean that this thing will automatically pick it up?”
Luoyang was at a loss for a moment after hearing my words. She didn't quite understand what I meant by ”automatic pick-up”, but she still looked at me coldly before nodding her head.
After receiving a definite answer, I looked at the coffin with even more fear. The feeling of gradually suffocating in the darkness didn't feel good. At the very least, I didn't want to have to do it again.
The sky wasn't bright at all, and the darkness continued to persist.
The formation drawn on the ground didn't completely disappear. One could even feel the faint energy from it, as well as the color of my blood.
I looked at Luoyang and asked, ”Tell me, who exactly wants my blood, and my life?”
”There are too many people who want your blood. No matter if it's a person or a ghost, they will all want your blood. However, there really aren't many people who want your life. Don't worry, as long as I'm still here, no one will take your life.”
Every word was sincere, but I didn't take it to heart, because I knew it was all just a temporary promise.
However, there was no way to avoid it. As sweetness filled my heart, I couldn't help but plunge into Luoyang's embrace.
However, after some time, he was interrupted by someone else. Autumn Life gradually emerged from the darkness of the night, and Little White, who had a lifeless look in his eyes, was standing beside him.
Little White did not look too good. It was as if its entire body had lost all of its soul, and its eyes were devoid of any luster.
”Sir, please save him.”
Without another word, Qiu Sheng immediately knelt down towards the ground. Even if it was a spirit body, it would still be able to cause the soil on the ground to fall down by three parts. This showed just how powerful the force behind the action was.
Luanyang didn't let go of me. She let me lean against him, using my clothes to protect me as she surrounded me in his power.
”He has ill intentions. Did he fall for it this time because of his bad intentions? You actually said you wanted me to help him with something like this. You didn't have such a temper before.”
Luanyang's voice sounded very familiar, as if she had known Qiusheng for a long time, but the rejection was very obvious.
