Chapter 258: Life is better than death

Since he did it first, we didn't have to rob him, everyone was standing behind him. Watermark Ad Test Watermark Ad Test

The lid of the coffin was very heavy, and Xu Kui took a lot of effort.

The lid of the coffin creaked, and he slowly pushed it open.

With a thud, the coffin lid fell to the ground.

Xu Kui was originally a temper that was not afraid of heaven and earth.

He was just about to take a look into the coffin, when suddenly, a white light shot out of the coffin.

Xu Kui has always been very careful, watching Bai Mang shoot towards him.

He tried to dodge, but he didn't know why. It was as if the body was frozen, unable to move.

With a bang, Bai Mang just hit him.

Xu Kui let out a miserable scream and flew towards the bottom of the stone platform.

The head slammed into the wall, knocking out a bag the size of an egg.

Thankfully, the injury wasn't very serious. It took a lot of effort for him to get up from the ground, and his face was full of doubt.

At this time, a long sigh came from the coffin.

Hearing the voice, everyone got goosebumps.

Feel for everyone. The coffin appeared to contain a living person.

But Shen Pingchuan has been dead for hundreds of years, and it is impossible to resurrect him.

Isn't he the man in the coffin?

Everyone subconsciously took a few steps back, staring at the bronze coffin with solemn faces.

At this time, a figure floated up from the coffin silently.

He floated lightly above the coffin, just over a meter high.

When they saw his appearance, the people present were stunned.

Because this face is so familiar to us, I have seen his statue more than once, it is Shen Pingchuan!

It's different from what we see on the statue.

He frowned, his body was unusually thin, and he could be considered skinny.

And the most surprising thing is that the clothes on his body are in tatters.

Not only the face, but also the exposed skin turned black, and red blood vessels protruded from the skin like earthworms.

It reminds me of the hand I saw in the jar.

I looked to his arm.

Only then did he realize that both of his palms were missing.

Because of the long time, the position of the severed palm grows together, forming a circular arc, which makes people's scalp tingle when it looks like.

Despite this, his eyes were unusually attentive, staring at us like two bolts of cold lightning.

Xu Kui staggered over to us and whispered, "Being able to stand out of thin air is a Spirit Venerable!" “

In fact, we have known for a long time that Shen Pingchuan is a Lingzun-level figure.

Shen Pingchuan's gaze slid over everyone's faces one by one.

Then he asked lightly, "Who are you and why did you come here?" “

Xu Kui mustered up the courage and said, "I'm from the Thunder Hell Palace, and I'm here to get back what you took from our forbidden land." “

Hearing his words, Shen Pingchuan's gaze fell on him.

Opposite his gaze, although Xu Kui was not afraid of heaven and earth, he still couldn't help but look away.

Shen Pingchuan said lightly, "It's all because I was obsessed with ghosts and went to your so-called forbidden land." It has come to this point. “

His words stunned us.

Seeing that his expression was very calm, Xu Kui continued to ask, "Your strength has increased so quickly, isn't it related to what you took away?" “

Shen Pingchuan nodded slightly and said, "It seems that you still know some truths." Yes, in order to increase my strength, I quietly infiltrated your forbidden land. Although he achieved his goal, he made his life worse than death. “

When he said this, he sighed slightly, and his gaze fell on the white tiger.

When he saw the white tiger, he barely showed a smile on his face and asked, "Any of you can use beast control techniques?" “

Hearing him say this, Cao Xi nodded slightly.

Shen Pingchuan's gaze fell on her. After looking at her carefully, a look of disappointment appeared on her face, and she said, "According to your breath, you can know that you are not a descendant of the Shen family." In this way, you must have entered the Blue Dragon Palace? “

Cao Xi nodded and said, "Yes, I was lucky enough to go to the Blue Dragon Palace. “

Shen Pingchuan's gaze fell on the white tiger again. The white tiger's body shook, and a fierce light burst out from his eyes.

Suddenly, he turned his head and stared at Cao Xi viciously.

It turned out that Shen Pingchuan had already lifted the beast control technique that Cao Xi had cast on the white tiger.

Although Cao Xi can temporarily control it, there is still a big difference compared to Shen Pingchuan.

Shen Pingchuan's expression was very flat, and he said to Baihu, "Xiaobai, come here!" “

Hearing his words, the white tiger rushed to the top of the platform in three or two steps.

The big tiger head kept rubbing against Shen Pingchuan's arm.

Over the years, the white tiger has been guarding the outside space, and Shen Pingchuan has been inside the coffin.

It has not seen Shen Pingchuan for a long time, so it is so intimate.

A smile appeared on Shen Pingchuan's face.

He said to Cao Xi, "Since you can learn our Shen family's ancestral beast control technique, it can be regarded as having a relationship with the Shen family." I asked the descendants of the Shen family to place three jade pendants in the Green Dragon Palace, since you have been to the Green Dragon Palace and can get the jade pendants, you must have the head ring of the Ghost Face Alliance in your hands, right? “

As he said this, his gaze slid over the faces of the crowd.

As a Lingzun-level figure, his judgment of aura is very accurate.

He was judging whether there were any descendants of the Shen family among the people present.

I took a few steps forward and said, "Senior, the boss ring is here." “

I took the bronze ring in my hand and showed it to him.

Shen Pingchuan looked at the ring, then at me, and asked suspiciously, "You shouldn't be a descendant of the Shen family, right?" How can the ring end up in your hand? How's the Ghost Face League doing now? “

For so many years, he had sealed himself in a coffin, and he didn't know anything about the situation outside.

I explained to him, "Senior, although I am not a descendant of the Shen family, I was raised by the Shen family. The Shen family has no descendants anymore, so I got this head ring from my grandfather and gathered some of the descendants of the Ghost Face Alliance. Together, they were only one or two hundred. “

Hearing my words, Shen Pingchuan's expression was a little weird, and he seemed to be a little unable to accept this result.

After a while, he sighed slightly and said, "It's been four or five hundred years since I founded the Ghost Face Alliance. There are many things, I have figured out that everything rises and falls, and this is unavoidable. Come to me, son. “

I did as he told me to walk towards the coffin.

His gaze was very soft, and he said, "Although you are adopted by the Shen family, if you can gather the people of the Ghost Face Alliance together, you can also be regarded as a hero of our Shen family." Even the Xuantian Sword is on you. It seems that you also have a lot of fate with the Ghost Face Alliance. “

He looked into the distance and said, "I went to two places back then, and these two places affected my life and caused me a lot of trouble. In the end, I fell to the point where I became neither human nor ghostly. Because I can't solve this problem by myself, the successive alliance leaders of the Shen family are also secretly helping me solve this matter. It's just that hundreds of years have passed, and the Shen family has not been able to appear an outstanding figure, but on the contrary, it has decayed at a visible speed. In order not to let this secret fall into the hands of others. I just instructed Peng Ju to hide the five jade pendants that entered the White Tiger Pavilion. I deliberately asked him to hide three jade pendants in the Green Dragon Palace, and I am also a little selfish, most of the people who can get them are the descendants of the Shen family. No matter how far the Ghost Face Alliance declines in the future, as long as the descendants of the Shen family are still there, then I will still have a chance. “

It turned out that this was the case, and I just understood a little.

He must have been very sad, because not only was the Ghost Face Alliance completely decayed, but even the descendants of the Shen family had disappeared, leaving only me, the adopted descendant.

I said to him, "Senior, I have always regarded myself as a descendant of the Shen family, if you have any orders, you can tell me." As long as I can do it. I won't shirk. “

A look of relief appeared on Shen Pingchuan's face, and he said, "This matter involves a wide range of people, and most of the people who know this secret are dead. I don't think anyone will be able to come here again. So I can only tell you about it. “

There was a worried look on his face.

I said to him, "Senior, don't worry, they are all reliable friends. “

Shen Pingchuan looked at Xu Kui and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this friend should be a subordinate of the Thunder Prison Palace, right?" “

Xu Kui took a few steps forward and said, "Yes, I came here to get back what you took from the forbidden land. Please give it to me, and I can go back on my errand. “
