Chapter 1084: Chapter 1084: Because You Are Dangerous

Gourd Mountain, Zhao Family Village!

Suddenly, you remember this place, you’ve been here before with Du Xishan and Sun Lin.

It’s a graveyard!

In the main tomb chamber, there’s a suspended coffin hanging upside down!

At that time, the Empress’s Shadow Guard and the Saintess fought alongside you, and two of the Shadow Guard died.

Thinking of this, your brows can’t help but furrow.

From what Xuan She said before, this tunnel should lead to the hiding place of the previous Demon Emperor. Could it be that the suspended coffin that terrified you all those years ago actually contains the previous Demon Emperor!?

Once everything clicks, you rush forward immediately.

While the Saintess’s purpose is still unclear, you are well aware that this woman’s schemes are anything but simple!

Soon, you understand why Zhou Zelin and the others have been struggling for years to find the Demon Emperor.

Once you are in this strange world, none of the traps or mazes from the Human World can affect you, and you just need to walk in a straight line.

Upon reaching the main tomb chamber, where the suspended coffin is placed, you find yourself standing directly at the top of the foyer.

"Chairman Li, you are still too cautious in your endeavors."

You shrug and say with a smile, "Can’t help it. I’m not too familiar with this place, and I don’t want to take risks, especially since I now have a family to think about."

The Saintess chuckles softly, "You seem quite familiar with this place, don’t you?"

"Indeed, quite familiar. This is where we first met and greeted each other."

You say teasingly.

"Don’t be so mushy, Chairman Li is not my type."

The Saintess also laughs easily, the two of you chat leisurely like old friends who haven’t seen each other for years.

"You say I’m not your type, so what kind of guy would catch your eye?"

Actually, the Saintess finds it strange herself. According to her understanding of you, you shouldn’t be chatting aimlessly with her at this time.

But outwardly, she still doesn’t want to shatter this seemingly harmonious atmosphere.

"I, well, my taste is a bit unique. I like those naughty young boys, preferably with a bit of a wicked smile."

After hearing this, you are taken aback and laugh, "Wow, that’s quite a unique taste."

Naturally, two people who aren’t familiar don’t have many topics in common. After a bit of small talk, you quickly switch back to discussing the suspended coffin beneath the Saintess’s feet.

"I’ve always been curious, why do you always stand on top of that coffin? Could it be that the Demon Emperor is sleeping inside?"

The Saintess did not answer directly but asked, "Do you want to hear a story?"

"What story? If it’s an action love story from your island country, forget it, I come from a distinguished family."

She ignored your teasing, speaking as if to herself, "In the Ancient Era, after Gonggong knocked down Mount Buzhou, the world tilted, rivers flowed eastward, and a huge hole appeared in the sky. The Demon Clan’s progenitor, Nüwa, exhausted all her efforts seeking the Five-Colored Stone to mend the heavens. At that time, two of her fellow clan maids assisted her, one named Soaring Serpent and the other Bai Xi (xǐ). After Nüwa’s Ascension and entry into the Divine Realm, Soaring Serpent and Bai Xi also followed her. Later, Bai Xi, due to her longing for the Mortal World, mated with a mortal at Qingcheng Mountain and gave birth to Bai She, after which she was summoned back by Nüwa to never descend to the Mortal World again."

"Qingcheng Mountain, Bai She? Wow, Bai Suzhen, White Lady?"

The Saintess shrugs, "I’m not sure about that."

She continued, "Meanwhile, Soaring Serpent stayed by Nüwa’s side. She was the Northern Dark Snake, more composed and also stronger than Bai Xi, hence, she was designated the first Demon Emperor."

"What happened after that?"

"And beneath me, in this coffin, lies the daughter of the Soaring Serpent and the second Demon Emperor."

"Indeed."

You nod, then suddenly ask, "Hey, you’re human, right?"

"What do you think?" the Saintess retorted.

"Since you’re human, why are you so interested in the Demon Emperor? Could it be that you want to absorb her demonic power?" You think again, realizing that reason doesn’t hold up, "No, that’s not right. For humans to absorb demonic power is akin to seeking death, especially the demonic power of a Demon Emperor."

Although you are now standing here with the Saintess, chatting and laughing, you actually feel extremely wary of the person inside the coffin.

Not to mention, just the aura emitted by her sleep alone is somewhat overwhelming.

"Her name has been lost to history since those who knew of it are all dead. All I know is that she was the most powerful of all the Demon Emperors, and her beauty was unmatched in the Demon Clan. It’s said that even the fairies and goddesses in the heavens would step aside when seeing her, even feeling ashamed of themselves."

You purse your lips in skepticism: "Isn’t that an exaggeration?"

"How would you know if you haven’t seen her?"

The Saintess unexpectedly used reverse psychology.

Playing mind games with women is indeed tiresome, and what surprises you is—

When you were weak before, you felt this coffin was extremely terrifying and dangerous. Now that you’ve reached the Demigod Realm, you still feel immense fear towards her, as if her existence has transcended all your understanding.

Noticing the change in your emotions, the Saintess smiled and said, "Chairman Li, I seem to feel your fear."

"Nonsense, facing this boss that has existed for thousands of years, how could I not be afraid?"

Annoyed, you scratched your head and suddenly regretted agreeing to Zhou Zelin.

Putting aside whether this Demon Emperor is dead or alive, just the terrifying feeling she gives while being sealed in this suspended coffin is akin to a nuclear bomb.

After a brief pause, the Saintess suddenly said, "Chairman Li, how about we make a deal?"

"What?"

Your eyes narrowed.

"I want a body that retains eternal youth, as long as you can recreate it for me, I swear I will never oppose you again!"

You stroked your chin, thinking, "Sounds pretty tempting, huh?"

"What do you think?"

"No."

The Saintess’s eyes widened: "Why!?"

She was clearly angry.

"Because you’re dangerous."

"What!?"

You responded matter-of-factly, "Compared to the timed nuclear bomb below, I’m even more afraid of your presence. For me, even if I have to fight a straightforward battle with this Demon Emperor and die, there’s nothing much to say, but I’m scared, scared that you might stab me in the back!"

"I’ve already said, we can form an alliance!"

"Right, we could form an alliance, but what use is a shred of paper?" you rolled your eyes, "Look at those newlywed couples, starting with such great relations, thinking that getting a marriage certificate means a happy life ahead, but what’s the result? They end up parting ways, and often the woman stabs the man in the back. Recently, that someone didn’t just cuckold her man, she even had kids by another man, right? Oh, sorry, my analogy might not be apt, but anyway, I refuse."

"You’re forcing my hand!"

The Saintess’s face suddenly contorted, and she violently slammed her hand down on the suspended coffin!
