IPWDDFYM III

1589-1590

She looked around her and her eyes were filled with confusion. Then, she cast her gaze to the one and only coffin here.

She did not believe that this person would have died here for no rhyme or reason. If this place had no mechanism, then the only reason would be that there was danger hidden in this coffin.

If the one lying in there was the emperor’s real body, then that was not impossible.

She stood where she was, a little hesitant.

The person on the ground was that powerful and had still ended up dead. Was she going to be able to hold on?

She had the answer without even needing to think. Obviously not.

However, she was already here. If she didn’t take a look at the emperor’s ‘appearance’, then she wouldn’t be able to handle it!

Furthermore, intuition told her that she would not be in danger.

Should she take a look?

She hesitated for a long while, but she was still unable to come to a decision. Finally, she looked at the skeleton on the ground and thought about how she still had things she wanted to do. If she died here, wouldn’t it not have been worth it? Although she was curious, in order to preserve her little life, it was better for her to forget it.

In any case, this place wouldn’t run away. Once she had settled her future things and was more powerful, it wouldn’t be too late for her to return.

Once she had finished thinking this through, she turned around and prepared to leave. However, she suddenly heard a sigh in the room. Then, the cover of the coffin flew to the side and a ray of light flew out from the coffin, stopping her and dragging her back.

It all happened too quickly. The time between hearing the sound of the coffin’s movement to now took merely a breath’s worth of time before she was dragged into the coffin. She hit her head fiercely on the coffin’s base. A wave of energy immediately dashed into her body.

Just before she fainted, she only had one thought: The coffin is empty. There’s nobody inside at all!

It was unknown how much time passed before she slowly opened her eyes and climbed out from the coffin only to find that the skeleton from before was gone. At this tie, the gate slowly opened and a silhouette walked in from the outside.

It was obvious that he was powerful, and the expression on his face was obviously one of excitement.

Her first reaction was one of shock. She thought about how this person and managed to enter, did this mean that her father and the others were in danger? Then, she quickly realised that it was wrong.

She was standing right in front of him, but he didn’t seem to see her at all!

The most important thing was that he held that rusty rod in his hand!

“I found it, I found it. I finally found you! As long as I obtain your inheritance, why would I be afraid of being unable to advance to the emperor’s rank? At that time, who in the continent will be able to contest me? Hahahaha-”

The person laughed evilly, as if he could see his beautiful future ahead of him.

It was only now that Sima You Yue realised that she was looking at an illusion. It wasn’t reality.

That was wrong as well. She felt as if she should be looking at the scenario that had happened in the room before, which was probably the time the skeleton on the floor had entered the place.
