r>“No! I’m going with you!” Qing Han bit down on Lu Yun’s ear and refused to let go.

“Stop it!” Lu Yun was a bit fraught.
He whipped a slap onto Qing Han’s butt to get the young man to let go, then callously dumped him onto the ground.

“Th—the painting you gave me can break the coffin formation.
I can help!” Qing Han had realized by now that the blank painting that had suddenly appeared in his possession was the sole reason he was still alive.
It used an incomprehensible method to preserve his life and even restore his vitality.


No one but Lu Yun could’ve given him such a treasure.

As the hag drew ever closer, Qing Han coughed violently.
“I know you’re worried about the hag getting outside and harming others, but your strength alone won’t suffice.
The bloodcorpses will eat you raw even without the help of their maggots.
Take me with you, I can help!” he rattled off, cheeks red with urgency.

“Damn it!” Lu Yun clenched his teeth, a little hesitant.

There was an inviolable rule in all tomb raider sects.
One could loot from the dead and plunder their riches, but nothing from the tomb could be allowed to walk free to harm the living.

Even graverobbers had their own code of ethics!

In the case that zombies, monsters, or energies harmful to the living were to be unleashed upon those living in the vicinity, the one responsible needed to do everything in their power to limit the damage as best they could.
If unsuccessful, they would accompany the victims in death, then be posthumously expelled from the sect.

Of course, Lu Yun was the only such sect member in this world, but the rules set by his masters were ironclad.
Disregarding them was simply unthinkable.

“Without you, I’d already be dead.
I owe you my life.” Seeing Lu Yun’s ugly expression, Qing Han hastened to add, “Take me along.
We don’t have much time left!”

“Yueshen, Miao, you two find another exit.
Qing Han and I will be enough,” Lu Yun decided grimly.
Since Qing Han’s blank painting could destroy the certain death layout, the bloodcorpse coffin formation would certainly be child’s play as well.

“Yueshen, I know the bloodcorpse was once a body meant for you, but you can no longer control it now that it’s turned into that thing.
Plus, there are somehow nine of them now, since there’s actually one in each coffin!”

A single snort from her had been enough to scare one of them away, because they were bodies originally meant for her to inhabit.
But transforming into bloodcorpses freed them from her authority while inside the coffin formation.
Given the chance, they’d even eat her to restore themselves.
Hence, though she was unwilling, she ultimately left with Miao.

……

“Waaarghhh!” The undead hag had reached their tunnel by now, half of its flesh worn away from its dark bones.
Its black hair seemed to come to life as it snaked toward Lu Yun and Qing Han.

“Let’s go!” Instead of carrying Qing Han on his back, Lu Yun lifted the young man in his arms while stepping on Violetgrave and taking off into the air.
With the hag in hot pursuit, he didn’t want to risk its hair latching onto the imperial envoy.

“Are you man or woman? Why do you feel even softer than my Wanfeng?” he shouted hoarsely.

“Now’s not really the time for this, don’t you think?” Qing Han responded weakly.
But then he saw the blood seeping from Lu Yun’s wide open eyes.
The governor was obviously babbling in an attempt to soothe his frayed nerves.

Remember that Yueshen’s friends and family extracted the mind of the burial mound’s owner and fused it into the corpse coffin, so the owner would get a taste of their own medicine.
