Seeing his actions, Mi Li cursed inwardly, "What an idiot!"
Worried about the other person's safety, she hurriedly followed.
As Zuan approached the large tree, the closer he got, the more he could feel the pressure emanating from the enormous bronze coffin, and his heart pounded faster and faster.
However, he didn't have time to think about anything else and jumped onto the Changchun Five-Colored Tree, where a refreshing fragrance wafted over.
He didn't know if the flower was poisonous, nor did he know if his immune system could withstand this rare plant that only blooms once every few thousand years.
He gritted his teeth and plucked the only flower.
To his surprise, nothing happened.
There was no movement in the giant bronze coffin beside him; Qin Shi Huang did not come back to life, and not even a sound was made.
Mi Li had been watching the giant bronze coffin warily, on guard against anything that might come out and attack Zu'an. Only when she saw this did she breathe a sigh of relief.
However, this only fueled her curiosity: "You leave here first, I'll open the coffin and take a look at him."
Zuan smiled and said, "I'll stay with you. If anything really happens, I can fight alongside you."
Mi Li opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't drive him away. With his current cultivation level, he was indeed qualified to fight alongside her.
In addition, he is extremely physically strong and has a certain ability to protect himself.
Mi Li didn't say anything, but walked to the giant bronze coffin and slowly pushed open the heavy lid.
Unsurprisingly, the coffin inside was a crystal coffin, but much larger than the one Fusu had before.
A man in a dragon robe lay quietly in the coffin. Even with his eyes closed, his raised eyebrows, high nose, and prominent chest exuded an aura of majesty that made people afraid to look directly at him. He was indeed very similar to the image of "a man with a bee-like nose, long eyes, and a hawk-like chest" recorded in historical texts.
This wasn't the first time Zaun had seen him. He had seen his remnant soul in the secret realm of Brightmoon City Academy. It has to be said that the remnant soul gave him a stronger sense of awe back then. Now, this original body, being just a corpse, lacked much of its former spirit.
Mi Li couldn't help but sigh deeply: "Your imperial ambitions have all come to naught. You've pursued immortality for so long, yet you still couldn't escape death. In fact, you didn't live as long as I did. Fate is just so cruel."
Zuan looked at her with concern, only to find that there was no love in her eyes at all, and even the intense hatred she had felt at the beginning had faded considerably. Clearly, after so much time had passed, seeing the other person's corpse now would inevitably dilute even the deepest hatred.
Instead, he wore an extremely complex expression, an expression that Zu An had never seen on anyone else; it was clearly a feeling that could only be cultivated over a long period of time.
Just then, he suddenly felt a sense of alarm and hurriedly looked to the side. A cold voice came from afar: "Throw the flower of immortality in your hand over here, or I will kill her."
Mi Li turned around and saw Zhao Ruizhi standing at the entrance, his hand on Bi Linglong's shoulder, coldly watching the two of them. With his cultivation level, as long as he released a little force, Bi Linglong would surely perish immediately.
At this moment, He Li and the remaining two Qi Wangfu assassins also arrived panting. When they saw the flower in Zu An's hand, their eyes lit up. It was shimmering with colorful light and had a strong life force, making it hard not to associate it with the idea of immortality.
