Cold sweat broke out on her forehead as two of her inner selves were in the midst of a debate.

You can’t go in, don’t go in...

Go in, they won’t harm you...

You can’t go in...

Go ahead and enter...

The voices in her head instantly vanished the moment she stepped foot inside the cave.

Her palms were sweaty, and she clenched her fists tightly.

By the time she was inside the cave, she felt an overwhelming stream of cold air that sent her shivering from head to toe.

It was truly a test of courage and bravery. She had to put on a brave front despite the immense fear she felt.

An Xiaoning raised her head slowly and caught sight of a few translucent figures.

They were all looking down at her.

The cave was dimly lit, and she could not quite see clearly.

At this very moment, An Xiaoning was much less fearful than before.

“Why did you call me ‘Miss Jin’?” she asked.

The figures showed up in front of her abruptly and answered, “You must’ve forgotten about it, but we haven’t. We’ve waited for you for so many years. You’re finally here. We’re very heartened to see you.”

An Xiaoning was filled with questions. However, she knew that she had to keep calm and be patient.

“Did you guys visit me in my dreams last night?”

“Yes, we were afraid that you wouldn’t come again.”

She heaved a huge sigh of relief and felt much more relaxed. She took another few steps forward and asked, “Who... is that inside the coffin?”

“Our master.”

“Did you kill all those people who entered the cave in order to stop them from getting near the coffin?” she asked in puzzlement.

“Yes.”

“Now that the coffin has already been discovered, those people who came by yesterday might visit again. It’s very likely that they would bring a medium with them to get rid of you guys. I don’t think this place is safe for you guys anymore.”

“We figured that they would do so. We’ve been watching over this place for centuries and never once left to harm others. However, we have no choice but to kill those who trespass. Our only goal is to wait for you to come one day.”

“What if I never showed up for the rest of my life?”

“Then we’ll wait for the next lifetime. We’ll keep waiting until you show up one day.”

How stubborn.

“Why are you guys so insistent on waiting for me?”

The spirits did not answer and the air turned colder. “Why must you wait until I show up!?!” An Xiaoning asked again.

“Miss Jin, aren’t you also very curious about who lies in this coffin? Why don’t you take a look first?”

An Xiaoning laid her eyes on the coffin, which was not too far away.

Since the person lying inside the coffin was their master, he must have died centuries ago, meaning that what was left of him would probably be just bones.

How was she supposed to tell what he looked like?

Noticing how hesitant she was, the spirits said, “Our master has been waiting for you for so long. Miss Jin, please open the coffin.”

Gu Beicheng and Lin Mingxi stood outside the cave and watched as An Xiaoning stood in front of the coffin.

Although she did not know the exact material of the coffin, she could tell that it was made of superior-quality wood.

There were no signs of decomposition or wreckage, and it was extremely clean.

An Xiaoning placed her hands on the coffin and turned to look at the spirits beside her, who gave her a nod.

An Xiaoning pushed the lid of the coffin lightly, and it opened with a loud thud.

A faint fragrance wafted up to her nose. It was the scent of the wood of the coffin.

A bright, white ray emitted from a night luminescent pearl placed inside the coffin.

After her eyes had adjusted to the sudden brightness, she shifted her gaze to the body lying inside the coffin.

Unlike what she had imagined, it was not a skeleton.

Instead, it was the body of a tall and slender man.

He was dressed in a white, long-sleeved shirt, which was made of dragon fabric, and a pair of black boots.

His long, jet-black tresses were laid across the pillow supporting his head.

An Xiaoning would have thought that the corpse belonged to a woman if she had not noticed his build and his hands.

His face was covered by a golden handkerchief.

She would have to remove the handkerchief in order to see his features.

An Xiaoning was filled with nervousness, which made her feel as if her heart was about to jump out of her chest. Both her hands reached inside the coffin. All she had to do was to bend forward and the handkerchief would be removed.

She was extremely gentle with her movements and was shivering slightly. Standing on tiptoes, she bent forward and pinched the handkerchief.

The sight of the man’s face gave her a terrible shock, which threw her off balance, causing her to fall to the ground.

She winced and grimaced in pain.

“Xiaoning!” Gu Beicheng screeched.

“Xiaoning, are you alright?” Lin Mingxi exclaimed worriedly.

Breaking out in cold sweat, she answered, “I’m alright, don’t worry.”

Her legs turned to jelly, and she tried to stand up on her feet with all her might. She stood next to the coffin and took another glance at the man inside.

Her lips were quivering, and her heart was ricocheting vigorously against her chest.

Her heartbeat was terribly fast.

The man was extremely pale and no longer breathing. Surprisingly, his features were exactly identical to Jin Qingyan’s.

An Xiaoning was bewildered, for the man had already been dead for centuries.

A man belonging to the ancient times looked identical to Jin Qingyan. Just what was going on?

Moreover, she could not figure out why she had teared up involuntarily and uncontrollably.

Her tears flowed from her eyes like a broken faucet.

She could not wrap her head around why she had lost her grip on her emotions.

There was nothing she could do apart from crying.

Yet, she was crying uncontrollably, despite her rationality constantly telling her to stop.

After she’d been crying for a long time, the sky turned completely bright outside the cave.

There were a million burning questions in her head. Yet, it did not seem to be the right time to ask.

An uproar would definitely arise, should the archeologists come by again and discover that the corpse looked exactly like Jin Qingyan.

After much consideration, she decided to seek the opinion of the spirits.

“The archeological team might very likely come by again with a medium. That’ll be very dangerous for you. Are you guys willing to leave with me?”

“Of course we are, but Master...”

“I’ll come up with a solution.” An Xiaoning then said to Gu Beicheng, “Beicheng, come in and lend me a hand.”

Despite being petrified and consumed by terror, Lin Mingxi nonetheless proceeded to enter the cave together with Gu Beicheng while shuddering in fear from head to toe.

By the time they entered, An Xiaoning had already placed her cap onto the corpse’s head to mask his face.

“What do we do?”

“Carry him into the car.”

“Carrying a corpse...” Lin Mingxi spluttered.

Gu Beicheng was taken aback as well. After all, carrying a corpse down the mountain was extremely terrifying.

Coincidentally, Gu Beicheng’s phone rang.

After ending the call, a grave expression formed on Gu Beicheng’s face. “The people keeping close tabs on the archeologists said that the archeologists have gone to search for a medium.”

“Let’s hurry, then. Don’t be afraid, you just have to carry him to the bottom,” said An Xiaoning, trying to comfort him.

After all, Gu Beicheng was a prideful man who did not want to appear cowardly in front of the women.
