Chapter 879: Kunlun’s Wife, Na Ling’s Tomb

Just as Yu Huang finished speaking, Kunlun added, “So, it was a coincidence that we met you here. Don’t think that we were here to look for you.”

Everyone could tell that Kunlun was deliberately angering Sheng Xiao. However, Donor and the others didn’t intend to help Sheng Xiao out. They looked like they were waiting for drama.

To be honest, if they knew that Sheng Xiao was trapped in the land world under the sea, they would have risked their lives to save him.

Sheng Xiao shook his head helplessly as he held Yu Huang’s hand and walked to Kunlun. He said, “That tomb guardian beast was created by you in your previous life. If we’re talking about right and wrong, your mistake is graver than mine.”

Kunlun, who had just awakened its divine sense, was still very simple-minded. He thought about Sheng Xiao’s words and felt that he had indeed committed a sin.

Kunlun’s face turned slightly pale, and he looked at Yu Huang with guilt. “I’m sorry, Yu Huang.”

Yu Huang glanced at Sheng Xiao and muttered, “You’re such a big liar.”

Sheng Xiao shrugged.

It was his fault?

Yu Huang shook her head at Kunlun and said, “Don’t mind. I’m fine now.”

However, Kunlun was still immersed in self-reproach. No matter what joke everyone said next, he could no longer laugh.

“Alright, since the tomb guardian beast has been killed, let’s go into the ancient merman’s tomb to take a look.”

“Okay.”

The group walked towards the ancient merman statue in silence.

The closer they got, the more they felt that there was an obscure but terrifying power hidden in an unknown place and silently monitoring them.

When Yu Huang raised her head and looked around, she didn’t discover anything.

Just as she thought that she was being paranoid, she heard Donor ask, “Do you guys feel like we’re being watched?”

As a Light Elf, Donor was born with sharp senses. Donor could feel a gaze following his body and monitoring him inch by inch.

It was a spine-chilling feeling.

Yu Huang knew very well how sensitive the Light Elves were to all kinds of energy. Since he asked this question, it meant that there was very likely another terrifying thing hidden here.

Sheng Xiao narrowed his sharp eyes and looked around cautiously, even at the sky. After looking around, he shook his head and said, “I didn’t find any suspicious creatures.”

Donor rubbed the goosebumps on his shoulders and said with an uneasy expression, “But I feel a gaze peeping at us from the dark.” Donor bumped Estelle’s shoulder and asked him, “Estelle, do you feel that way?”

Estelle said, “Only Light Elves who grew up drinking holy water and eating spiritual vegetables have sharp senses. Night Elves who grew up eating potatoes and sweet potatoes can’t sense anything.”

Compared to the Light Elves, the Night Elves were a bunch of ruffians.

Donor thought that Estelle was mocking him and Light Elves for being extravagant.

He stared at Estelle’s expression and observed it seriously. Seeing that Estelle’s expression was calm and he was just stating a fact, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Yu Huang said, “I have the same feeling.”

She took a few steps forward tentatively, then realized that the gaze was focused on her.

What kind of feeling was that?

It was as if a smuggler on a boat had suddenly been noticed by a searchlight on the sea.

Yu Huang raised her head and looked around, but she didn’t find the searchlight.

Even though she couldn’t find the existence of that thing, Yu Huang still didn’t dare to lower her guard. Yu Huang said, “No matter what, everyone, be vigilant.”

Hearing this, Beatrice and the others subconsciously changed the formation of the team.

The six of them stood side by side in the same row. Kunlun and Donor stood at both ends of the team and were responsible for observing the situation on both sides.

Beatrice stood between Kunlun and Yu Huang while Donor stood between Estelle and Sheng Xiao. The two of them were in charge of observing the situation behind them.

Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao, who stood in the middle, stared ahead warily.

This way, they could observe any commotion around them immediately.

The six of them maintained this formation and advanced warily.

As they walked, Sheng Xiao said in a low voice, “I have all the memories of the Azure Dragon. The Slaughter Azure Dragon lived here for more than ten thousand years. Other than the Slaughter Azure Dragon, there are no other life forms. Could there be other creatures hidden here?”

However, which demon beast in the Kunlun Mystic Realm could avoid the attention of the Azure Dragon?

“Who else could it be?” Yu Huang looked up at the towering merman statue in front of her and teased, “It can’t be this statue, right?”

After she finished speaking, she suddenly realized that the others had all stopped.

“…”

Yu Huang turned to look at her companions, then raised her head to look at the statue. She swallowed hard and said, “What’s the matter? Don’t tell me you guys really think that this statue is alive?”

The statue looked lifeless and cold. It wasn’t a living creature.

Sheng Xiao said thoughtfully, “The Azure Dragon has to patrol the land every few days, but there’s one place on this continent that it has never patrolled before.”

Donor snapped his fingers and shouted in realization, “The tomb of the ancient merman!”

“That’s right.”

As Sheng Xiao looked at the tomb behind the ancient merman statue, he said, “If there is a living creature, it can only be hiding in the tomb.”

If there really was a living creature, then it probably wasn’t any younger than the Slaughter Azure Dragon. When they thought about how there might be an ancient and unknown terrifying creature living in the tomb, everyone felt their scalps tingle.

Beatrice suddenly said, “Why don’t we all go back?” This trip was filled with too many uncertainties and dangers. Beatrice didn’t want her companions to lose their lives just for the possibility of a golden opportunity.

Sheng Xiao wasn’t in a hurry to express his stance. Instead, he turned to Donor and asked, “Donor, what did you sense from that gaze?”

Elves were pure creatures. The stronger the cultivation level of an elf, the stronger his perception.

Donor had already broken through to the Supreme Master Realm. He could already sense subtle and specific emotions from that gaze.

Donor closed his eyes and allowed that gaze to study him wantonly.

After a moment, Donor opened his eyes and said in confusion, “That gaze is very complicated. There’s curiosity, fear, and fear in it, but there’s no killing intent.”

This was very strange.

The Slaughter Azure Dragon started killing like crazy when it saw intruding creatures, but this unknown creature didn’t have any killing intent towards them. Wasn’t it strange?

“Perhaps the tombstone is not as dangerous as we think it is.” Sheng Xiao looked at everyone and said, “Should we take the risk to enter the tomb to investigate, or should we go back the way we came? Everyone, express your stance.”

With that, he took the lead and said, “I want to enter the tomb.”

Yu Huang said, “I want to too.”

Donor and Estelle nodded as well. “We want to go into the tomb and take a look too.”

Kunlun hesitated for a moment before frowning and saying, “The moment I entered this place, my heart started racing. I feel that there’s something very important to me hidden here. I want to obtain it. Therefore, I also wanted to enter the tomb to take a look.”

Beatrice wanted to persuade everyone to leave, but seeing that everyone had decided to continue, she changed her mind. “Then let’s explore together.”

“Okay.”

The six of them quickened their pace and quickly arrived in front of the ancient merman statue.

The tomb was built behind the statue. The merman statue was the surface of the tomb. The statue’s naked feet were on a rectangular jade stone. On the jade stone tablet, there was a series of ancient runes.

Donor and Beatrice couldn’t recognize the ancient words, but Sheng Xiao recognized them at a glance.

Sheng Xiao stared at the words on the jade and read in a low voice, “The tomb of Kunlun’s wife, Na Ling.”

Yu Huang and the others had already guessed the relationship between the ancient merman and Kunlun. When they heard Sheng Xiao translate the sentence, they couldn’t help but turn around and look at Kunlun.

Kunlun walked to the front and pressed his hand on the tablet, as if he could remember how he felt when he personally engraved these words in his previous life.

Kunlun’s face was filled with sorrow.

He said, “I feel a strong sense of sorrow.”

A tear rolled down from the corner of Kunlun’s eye without warning.
