Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor-Chapter 826 - 319: The Call from the Ice Coffin

Remember when most people were admiring the twenty exquisitely crafted Purple Gold Statues in the Demon Beast Corridor.

But Yun Sheng alone was curious why there were supposed to be twenty-two Purple Gold Demon Statues, leaving only twenty statues below the Commander Rank.

Where did the King-level Purple Gold Demon Statues go?

At the time, Ye Beiming and Dugu Xiu just listened without pondering the meaning behind Yun Sheng’s words. But now, looking at it, she had already noticed something unusual about the Purple Gold Statues.

Yun Sheng, as a Summoner, is different from ordinary Mages and Martial Artists; when she saw those Purple Gold Statues, she sensed a trace of life force.

That life force was very faint, but it carried a thread of anger and sorrow.

However, she did not delve deeper at the time into the matter of those Purple Gold Statues.

Upon reevaluation, these Purple Gold Demon Statues could actually transform into real Demon Beasts.

Very likely, these statues are related to the devastating disaster that once afflicted Taiyuan City.

These two King-level Demon Beasts probably avoided the disaster of the past, waiting in the Crown Princess Consort’s Tomb for the final enemies to appear, delivering the last blow to the greedy foes.

"This is bad, Qi and the others are in danger!" Yun Sheng saw the two King-level Purple Gold Demon Statues and immediately recalled the statues in the Demon Beast Corridor.

The collapse of the City Lord’s Hall will create intense tremors, surely impacting the entire castle, and Senior Sister Lan will definitely lead everyone out of the castle.

But if at that time, those Purple Gold Statues suddenly become Demon Beasts, then Senior Sister Lan and her group will be in danger.

Demon Beasts that have been hungry for years possess attack powers that are several times stronger than ordinary Demon Beasts.

"Whether they’re in danger or not, it’s hard to say. Right now, our lives are more important," Ye Beiming and Dugu Xiu exchanged glances once more.

This time, there was no hostility in their eyes.

King-level Demon Beasts are no trivial matter.

Even though both of them were Martial Emperors now, defeating the strange Purple Gold Tiger Lion Beast still required all their strength.

"Let’s temporarily ally and take out these two big beasts," Ye Beiming nodded towards Dugu Xiu.

"Then let’s see who succeeds first," Dugu Xiu laughed as well, a touch of mutual understanding in both their gazes.

One is the schemer Prince of the Great Zhou, and the other is the iron-blooded Crown Prince of Hou Qin.

If these two were born in peaceful times, they might have become close friends competing and enjoying drinks together.

Yet they were born into chaos and fell for the same woman.

Both are dragons among men, destined someday to have a new clash on the stage of Wuji Continent.

Facing the threat of King-level Demon Beasts, only Ye Beiming and Dugu Xiu would have the mood for a beast-slaying contest.

"Men’s logic is truly hard to comprehend," Yun Sheng watched speechlessly.

Strange men, fighting fiercely one moment, teaming up like best friends the next.

Yun Sheng could bet that the first thing these two do upon leaving the Underground Palace is to fight fiercely.

However, this also indirectly shows that Ye Beiming and Dugu Xiu are capable of great feats, putting aside national and personal grudges temporarily to unite against the enemy.

"Help... us... help"

As Yun Sheng indulged in her thoughts, she heard the voice again.

This time, she heard it clearly. That faint, threadlike voice came from the Cold Jade Ice Coffin.

With Ye Beiming and Dugu Xiu handling the King-level Guardian Beast, Yun Sheng focused entirely on the Cold Jade Coffin floating in the Lotus Pond.

Yun Sheng shook her Magic Wings on her back and flew toward the Cold Jade Ice Coffin.

"Roar--"

"Roar--"

The two Tiger Lion Beasts battling Ye Beiming and Dugu Xiu noticed Yun Sheng’s intention.

They roared angrily, attempting to stop Yun Sheng.

"Beasts, how dare you touch this king’s woman," Ye Beiming’s eyes sharpened coldly amid the demons, grabbing the Tiger Lion Beast’s tail with his hand.

Using the technique of using little force to achieve great control, he effortlessly tossed the 500-600 pound beast away.

Not to mention that the Little Wildcat just wanted to see what’s inside the Cold Jade Coffin—even if she wanted to rob the tomb, he would easily help her dig a tunnel.

"I’ve thought it over—as opposed to giving it cheaply to Prince Beiming, why not let her play with the divine artifact," Dugu Xiu shrugged with generosity.

His iron fist swept across, striking the Tiger Lion Beast’s waist and belly.

The two Purple Gold Tiger Lion Beasts were forced into retreat by the increasingly fierce two men.

In the Human Clan, there are indeed such strong Martial Artists?

The Tiger Lion Beast’s eyes flashed with an unwillingness akin to humans.

Yun Sheng had already approached the Ice Coffin successfully, cautiously opening the wooden coffin.

The Cold Jade Coffin emitted threads of cold air.

Inside the coffin lay a woman.

The woman’s beauty was otherworldly—even Yun Sheng, as a woman, couldn’t help but feel entranced.

Her skin was whiter than ivory, beneath her closed eyelids lay butterfly-like eyelashes, lips red as flower stamens, and her brown hair gently cascaded to her waist.

She appeared only in her early twenties, lying in the Cold Jade Coffin with hands on her waist, as if merely asleep. Had it not been for the absence of her heartbeat and breathing, Yun Sheng might have mistaken her for being alive, merely slumbering.

This woman was presumed to be the Crown Princess Consort of the Taiyuan City Lord.

Unexpectedly, after five hundred years, the deceased Crown Princess Consort’s body remains preserved so well.

"What is this?" Yun Sheng’s attention shifted to the other side of the Cold Jade Ice Coffin.

Beside the Ice Coffin, a War God Spear lay quietly, exuding a cold sheen.

"The War God Spear?"

But why did the Summoning Demon Hand show no reaction?

Yun Sheng softly murmured, hearing the commotion, Ye Beiming and Dugu Xiu summoned a tricky move to break away from the two King-level Demon Beasts, and flashed to Yun Sheng’s side.

They saw the spear in the coffin and visibly revealed a trace of disappointment.

Exerting so much effort to reach the Underground Palace, they had anticipated finding the Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts.

But unexpectedly... with their keen gaze, it was not hard to discern that this weapon in the Ice Coffin was merely a Holy-grade weapon, not the fearsome War God Spear capable of destroying the world.

"You dare to offend the Crown Princess Consort’s coffin."

"You all deserve death."

The two Tiger Lion Beasts suddenly spoke, standing upright like humans.

"Two Generals, do not be angry; these are my invited guests."

The three were all taken aback.

For this voice was indeed coming from the Cold Jade Ice Coffin.

Yet the woman within the Ice Coffin remained with her eyes closed.

Yun Sheng instantly recognized—this voice was the very call she heard upon entering the Taiyuan Castle.
