On this ancient road, there seems to be a certain law that every once in a while, strange phenomena appear, such as illusions...

Three thousand years ago, a massive illusion descended, becoming the nightmare of that era.

Eight thousand years ago, a tomb suddenly split open, spewing countless power of death, killing an unknown number of geniuses.

Even tens of thousands of years ago, some terrifying creatures emerged from the darkness...

In this current era, a coffin and a holy medicine seem better than before.

At least on the surface, it appears that way. As for the truth, no one knows, because the coffin has not yet been opened, and no one knows what is inside.

A great opportunity?

Or an emperor's body?

Or perhaps the blood of a god?

But no matter what it is, the appearance of the coffin and holy medicine has already attracted the attention of the geniuses on the ancient road.

Even though Chen Shixian has intimidated a group of people and driven away many geniuses, the longer she stays here, the more she's going to become the focus of attention in this area.

This is inevitable.

Because the guy secretly plotting against her has no intention of letting her go.

The Three-eyed God Monkey, with a solemn expression, asked softly, "Who do you suspect?"

Miss Chen remained silent.

"Eh? How come you're here?" Outside the inn, a familiar voice sounded.

It was Yue Wuxia.

In a flowing long gown, her slender figure was adorned with bright eyes and white teeth. Her smile was like the blossoming of a hundred flowers, distinctly different from the beauty of Miss Chen.

On Yue Wuxia, there was an added cute playfulness, making her more lively.

Upon seeing this girl, Miss Chen's pretty face immediately dropped, her forehead lined with dark lines, showing clear discontent.

But the Three-eyed God Monkey beside her burst into laughter, eyes turning with obvious cunning, and whispered in a very low voice, "Girl, here's your chance for revenge."

Miss Chen glanced sideways.

"Someone wants to harm you, has set up a grand plan, and now you're surrounded by crisis, but you're destined not to escape, you must confront it directly; however, you are too weak alone, you might not be able to handle it!" The Three-eyed God Monkey chuckled, then glanced at the approaching Yue Wuxia: "This is an opportunity."

"So?" Miss Chen's eyes narrowed, and the dark lines on her forehead dissipated.

She was not a fool. The little monkey's words made her realize the plan.

She was surrounded by crisis.

Just when Yue Wuxia appeared here.

Wonderful!

Thinking about this, she slightly raised the corners of her mouth, revealing a faint smile.

Looking at Yue Wuxia again, there was no longer any sign of dislike, she actually found her more pleasing, hmm... this girl looked good, most importantly she was kind-hearted.

She knew very well Yue Wuxia's nature, saying she was simple and kind, innocent to the ways of the world, may not be entirely right, but using "stupid, silly, not all there," was absolutely fitting for Yue Wuxia.

Though an Emperor Son, she lacked the tempering of the human world and had yet to fully grasp the complexities of human relationships and this complicated world.

Completely different from Guang Xiaoyu's "smart" nature.

Also very different from Zi Ji's "cluelessness."

If she wanted to fool Yue Wuxia, wouldn't it be a piece of cake?

Humph!

After all, she was an Ancient Divine Body and had been tempered in the cultivation world for many years.

Thinking of this, Miss Chen suddenly felt worse, her mood fluctuating again. Such a foolish Emperor Son like Yue Wuxia, who had previously... tortured her in countless ways.

Absolutely hateful.

But wait!

It was my excessive kindness, lack of scheming, that's why Yue Wuxia was able to suppress me all the time.

At this moment!

Walking towards her, Yue Wuxia's smile became even more brilliant, as if the words "simple" and "enthusiastic" were engraved onto her beautiful face.

The last time Miss Chen saw her, it was several years ago.

Fate truly is inexplicable.

"Miss Chen, have you broken through to King Tao?" Yue Wuxia asked.

"???"

In that instant, Miss Chen's just adjusted mindset shattered like a comet crashing to the ground.

An exquisite face now enveloped in anger, as beautiful eyes flashed with cold light.

The previously planned beauty all forgotten in this moment, with only one thought left—taking down Yue Wuxia.

Fuck!

Do you know how to talk?

Whether I have broken through to King Tao has nothing to do with you!

Seeing her about to erupt, the little monkey quickly said, "Hold on, a lack of patience can ruin the big plan."

Dammit!

Those guys with Chen Pingping are all bad news.

Miss Chen suppressed her killing intention, snorted softly.

The little monkey continued, "Smile!"

She forced a smile: "Not yet! Miss Yue, do you have any good ideas?"

Yue Wuxia cheerfully came over: "Of course, I recently heard that in this area, a coffin and a holy medicine have appeared, wow... such things, you can't even see them in Monster Emperor City! I think, if you can get this holy medicine, you'll probably be able to break through to King Tao."

Chen Shixian just smiled silently, inwardly scoffing: "Nonsense, though holy medicine is precious, it's not absolute. If it could make me break through to King Tao, haven't I wasted years?"

The shackles inside her weren't due to personal reasons, but rather a type of causality, an insurmountable chasm.

Every time she tried to reach that chasm, she could see a vast white expanse ahead, no end in sight; she felt hopeless in this life.

So hearing Yue Wuxia's words, her heart remained calm and dismissive.

But Yue Wuxia was exceptionally passionate, after sitting down, she chatted away: "It's really true!" She paused for a moment before adding, "However... I've heard some unforeseen events have occurred with the coffin and holy medicine."

Oh?

Chen Shixian raised an eyebrow: "What kind of unforeseen events?"

"Hahaha... it's hilarious, reportedly some unlucky person appeared inexplicably in those mountains, and once she woke up, both the coffin and holy medicine disappeared, and then she became the scapegoat." Speaking of this, Yue Wuxia burst into laughter, "Though it's known the coffin and holy medicine couldn't have been taken by her, there still might be some connection."

Chen Shixian's face darkened.

"Due to this unfounded connection, that unlucky person has now become the target, geniuses from outside the ancient road are prepared to come looking for her, hahaha... isn't she very unlucky?" Yue Wuxia laughed brightly, revealing a row of pearly whites.

Completely absent of an Emperor Son's dignity and mystery, lacking the elegant air of a peerless beauty, more like a princess fallen to earth, blended with the human world.

The little monkey was very worried, fearing Miss Chen would suddenly erupt.

Luckily, Miss Chen held herself back, but her face was still dark as charcoal.

Yue Wuxia continued talking on her own, clicking her tongue, "That unlucky child, she's in trouble soon, I heard quite a few top geniuses are already on their way."

Miss Chen's dark face still wrestled with her emotions, squeezing a sentence out through her teeth: "Does Miss Yue know the name of this unlucky child?"
