The entire tomb, including both the real and fake ones, can be said to occupy almost the entire Witch Corpse Sect.
The Corpse Witch Sect was likely built on top of this tomb, perhaps to suppress it; or perhaps the Corpse Witch Sect was using all its resources to create a giant zombie—once the Corpse Witch Sect was destroyed and the giant zombie was completed, it broke out of the coffin on its own and came to the surface from underground.
Regardless of which possibility it is, this whole thing seems strange.
The Corpse Witch Sect is a sect that refines corpses, so why would they leave the corpses unrefined and instead use them to suppress this tomb? But if the Corpse Witch Sect is using all its resources to refine a giant zombie, then it naturally wants to use this giant zombie. So why would the Corpse Witch Sect be destroyed before the giant zombie is created?
Chu Nian was a little confused about this.
She used her mental powers to thoroughly explore the tomb, inside and out, but found nothing. The giant zombie had vanished without a trace, so she had no choice but to return to S City.
Even she probably couldn't have imagined that, with her current mental strength, she wouldn't have noticed that behind a large tree, white heart-shaped petals were gathering, revealing an extremely handsome man in white ancient clothing, watching her departing figure.
As Chu Nian walked, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her heart, as if a knife was stabbing at it, almost making her faint. But the pain only lasted for a moment before disappearing, and everything returned to normal, leaving her completely bewildered.
"Could this corpse have a congenital heart disease?" Chu Nian wondered. But after carefully examining the body, he found no injuries or illnesses. It was a healthy corpse.
Could it be that giant zombie Lou Qianzong from the story is behind this? Chu Nian suddenly stopped, turned around and looked back, scrutinizing the scene for a long time, and even using her spiritual power to probe for a while, but still found nothing, so she had to leave for the time being.
Only then did she begin to understand the situation: there might be someone in this world stronger than her.
Little did she know that the powerful man she considered stronger than her also wore a strange expression as she walked away, as if something odd had happened to him as well.
The next day, Chu Nian went to work and sang at the New Jue Nightclub: after all, besides seeking revenge, the original owner also hoped to live like Chen Baiying.
Actually, the original owner was wrong. Chen Baiying didn't live an elegant life, but a comfortable one. She came from a good family and had a powerful older brother to protect her! Because of this, she wasn't confused when things happened. Anyway, her older brother would take care of her if anything went wrong, which allowed her to live with ease.
Chu Nian didn't meet a good older brother, but she believed that she could still live a comfortable and easy life by relying on her own abilities.
The Maoshan Taoist priests were still watching her. Following their senior sister's instructions, they would remain inactive as long as the female corpse did not actively harm anyone. This was unavoidable; they were powerless against the female corpse and could only wait for their elders to arrive.
Unfortunately, the eldest sister said that she received a message from the sect early this morning, saying that there was unusual activity of corpse energy in the area where the Corpse Witch Sect was located last night, possibly indicating the appearance of a large zombie. The elders had already gone to the Corpse Witch Sect before dawn to investigate, and they could only come here after they had dealt with the situation there.
Although Chu Nian was the top singer, it was impossible for her to sing alone during the nightclub's opening hours. Not to mention that the other singers also needed to make a living, it would be too tiring for her to sing alone. So after singing two songs, it was time for her to rest and she gave the stage to the other singers.
After she left the stage, she rested in the backstage dressing room for a while before going to the lobby to order a drink.
"A whiskey, please!" A young man, already reeking of alcohol, clearly had drunk quite a bit, still ordered a drink at the bar. Seeing Chu Nian quietly sipping her beverage, he grinned and said, "Miss Nian, how about we have a drink together?"
Chu Nian sensed the lewdness in his gaze that she found utterly repulsive. Just as she was about to refuse, she suddenly heard a soft yet extremely cold male voice behind her: "She won't drink!"
Honestly, as soon as that voice came out, Chu Nian felt goosebumps all over her body for no reason. It was as if her instincts were telling her that the person who spoke was extremely dangerous!
Before the other person finished speaking, they were already standing in front of Chu Nian, sandwiched between her and the young master. Their backs were to Chu Nian, their hands were behind their backs, and their whole body exuded a sinister and violent aura, as if they were about to go berserk and kill people at any moment.
Chu Nian was horrified. She put down her drink and turned to leave.
But the next moment, the person who had been facing away from her was now standing right in front of her, facing her directly.
Chu Nian saw the other person's face: an extremely handsome young man with a smile in his eyes and an upturned mouth.
But even though the young man was looking at her with a smile in his eyes, Chu Nian felt a chill run down her spine. She had deeply sensed the man's power. Not only powerful, but also sinister, instantly reminding her of the angina she felt the moment he appeared at the Witch Corpse Gate last night.
"Lou Qianzong," Chu Nian murmured, somewhat bewildered.
"You actually know my name..." Lou Qianzong said, raising his lips in a wicked smile, and suddenly grabbed Chu Nian by the neck.
Chu Nian was horrified: This person is truly extraordinary in their evil. They attack without warning, without considering the occasion? There are a bunch of Celestial Masters here!
Everyone present was horrified. A group of women screamed and ran away upon discovering what was happening. Most of the men, not wanting to cause trouble in this chaotic world, also scattered and fled.
With Chu Nian's experience of traversing so many worlds, the initial shock quickly passed, and she regained her composure, asking, "What do you want to do?"
Lou Qianzong demanded menacingly, "Speak, who are you?"
Chu Nian: "My name is Luo Nian. As for who I am, can't you tell? We are the same kind."
"The same kind?" Lou Qianzong murmured, a look of doubt flashing across his face. After scrutinizing Chu Nian for a moment, he suddenly realized, released Chu Nian, and muttered to himself, "That's right, I'm already... a Yin Corpse..." As he spoke, he looked down at his hands, as if he were looking at his body, "A Yin Corpse... a Yin Corpse..."
He seemed dissatisfied with his identity as a corpse. But what good was dissatisfaction? To be honest, Chu Nian wasn't satisfied either; she also wanted a human body, but she didn't have one!
Chu Nian could only comfort her, "Don't be too sad. Anyway, once we cultivate to a certain level, we'll be just like humans."
"How can they be the same?"
Unexpectedly, Chu Nian's words of comfort angered the demonic corpse again. With a fierce shout, it turned around and grabbed Chu Nian's neck once more.
"Now that I've become a corpse, it's even more impossible... even more impossible..." His face was filled with pain and resentment, and his voice gradually faded.
Chu Nian said helplessly, "Um, it's no use choking me. My neck is already broken."
