Qin Shu hugged Xie Lanzhi tightly, sobbing softly in her throat: "You are a liar... You promised me that we would live and die together..."
"Xie Lanzhi, you lied to me... How could you do this... You can't leave me alone..."
Qin Shu curled up in the narrow coffin, her arms around Xie Lanzhi's neck, her face buried in the man's chest, crying like a wronged child.
"puff--"
Qin Shu was heartbroken and spat out a large mouthful of blood.
The glaring blood dyed the coffin red, and the blood mist dripped onto Xie Lanzhi's angular face.
Qin Shu's pupils contracted sharply, and with trembling fingertips, she hurriedly wiped the blood off Xie Lanzhi's face.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..."
The more she wiped, the more blood appeared on Xie Lanzhi's face.
Qin Shu's movements suddenly stopped, her empty eyes became cloudy, her eyelids trembled, and her consciousness gradually fell into darkness.
She seemed to have noticed something, and subconsciously tightened her arms around Xie Lanzhi's neck.
The huge palace fell into deathly silence, and sobbing sounds suddenly came.
Amuti, who was outside the palace, heard Qin Shu vomiting blood. He waited for a long time, but did not hear Qin Shu's voice. Without thinking, he rushed into the hall.
“Bang!”
As soon as Amuti stepped into the hall, he was bounced back by an invisible force.
He fell to the ground in a mess, but got up regardless of the pain in his body and rushed into the palace again.
Taoist Master Yuxuan grabbed his arm and stared at Amuti with sharp eyes: "You can't get in. Breaking in by force is courting death!"
Amuti roared: "Qin Shu is still in there, something happened to her!"
Taoist Master Yuxuan said: "She is not dead, she just fainted. It would be good to let her rest."
Hearing that Qin Shu had just fainted, Amuti calmed down and looked at the coffin in the hall with worried eyes.
Inside the coffin, Qin Shu seemed to have fallen asleep, nestling lovingly in Xie Lanzhi's arms.
Although her face was too pale, she was calm and still beautiful.
No one noticed that the golden dragon-patterned compass hanging around Qin Shu's neck was splashed with a few drops of blood.
The blood merged into the dense and complex runes on the compass, and the dull-colored compass suddenly burst into a dazzling golden light.
"roar--!"
A powerful and intimidating dragon roar sounded.
The dragon's roar was magnificent, rumbling like thunder, as if it could shatter the heaven and earth, making people's hearts palpitate.
Taoist Master Yuxuan, who was standing outside the palace, suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
He looked terrified and growled, "Close the door!"
The Taoist temple disciples around immediately took action, and despite the suffocating pressure of submission, they tried their best to close the heavy wooden door of the palace.
Taoist Master Yuxuan staggered down the stairs and sat in meditation in the courtyard.
The disciples who had been in seclusion before followed suit and started meditating in the courtyard.
Amuti looked at them in confusion and asked the purple-robed old man beside him, "What's wrong with them?"
The purple-robed Taoist said in a deep voice: "An unknown creature just appeared. Didn't you feel the terrifying shock of thunder?"
Amuti shook his head: "I don't feel anything."
He looked at the Xie family's confidants: "Did you feel it?"
Everyone shook their heads and said in unison: "No!"
The purple-robed Taoist looked at them in shock: "Didn't you feel anything? Didn't you hear the deep roar of the unknown creature?"
"No!" Amuti and others shook their heads again.
The purple-robed Taoist priest groaned for a moment and said, "It's okay. The incident just now might be a good thing."
