The Might of an Ancient Great Demon

"How come I kept feeling something was off about this coffin? Someone's missing. Where did Jin Caiwei go?"

The Qiongqi clan used Jin as their surname. Jin Caiwei was the little Qiongqi the Undying Fairy had mentioned.

Lu Yang: "..."

Why did that sound so weird?

"Wait, someone's coming. Hurry and get your senior sister and that Meng kid out of here," the Undying Fairy warned him.

"Someone's coming here?" Lu Yang was puzzled. He knew the Undying Fairy wouldn't lie to him, so he told his third senior sister.

"Third Senior Sister, we need to hide. Someone's entered the tomb!"

"How do you know?" His third senior sister was confused. She hadn't sensed anyone. How had Lu Yang?

And why was someone in the tomb? Had another Qiongqi died?

Lu Yang remained calm. "First Senior Sister gave me a magic treasure before we set out. It can warn me of danger. It's warning us now, so someone must have come in."

"First Senior Sister's so biased?" His third senior sister didn't doubt him. It sounded like the sort of treasure First Senior Sister could produce.

The three quickly put everything back where it belonged, then crept back to the mechanism room.

To keep tomb robbers from discovering the tomb's mechanisms, the room blocked spiritual sense. It was the perfect place to hide.

They had just tucked themselves away when footsteps sounded from the passage entrance.

"From the footsteps, there are two demons. One is an adult Qiongqi, and the other seems to be... from the Dijiang clan?"

His third senior sister had astonishing hearing. She could identify the newcomers' races just from their footsteps.

"Qiongqi and Dijiang? That doesn't sound like a tomb-robbing duo, or mourners, either." Meng Jingzhou scratched his head.

The two demons passed the mechanism room.
