I'm a villain, not a devil

In the royal cemetery, just as Liu Feng had told Sean before, there was a rustling sound.

The guards who patrolled at night had long been accustomed to this situation, and would pretend not to hear the occasional amplified sound.

They patrolled along the edge of the mausoleum to ensure the safety of the place, but the patrol route was interesting. No guard would approach the main body of the mausoleum, which was the roof of the original shelter.

A group of patrolling guards glanced solemnly at every corner around them, and only continued to follow the route after confirming that it was correct - the faint crying sound coming from deep in the cemetery beside them was directly ignored.

At this time inside the cemetery, a group of eunuchs belonging to Bai Zhan were kneeling on the ground and praying in the outer tomb chamber. They still needed to hold on for ten days or so, but they were still much better off than their mistresses who were buried alive with him.

A few eunuchs who were a little braver raised their heads and nodded slightly. Although there was a wall in front of them and they couldn't see anything, they could still faintly hear the crying from the other side.

"Is it, is it that mistress?" Someone nudged his companion cautiously.

The companion lowered his voice: "Who else could it be?"

"It sounds scary..."

"Nonsense, how can it not be scary? But remember, this has nothing to do with us! The guard of honor told us before we came in that we should not care about anything that happens inside the cemetery! We only have one mission, and that is to pray for His Highness with all our heart and soul. When the time is up, we will leave."

"But that woman keeps crying. How can we pray for blessings?"

"It's none of your business! Besides, that woman won't be able to cry for long. Her coffin is so small..."

As if to confirm this person's statement, the crying became weaker and weaker after a while.

However, at this moment, there was suddenly a sound of heavy objects moving!

The eunuchs kneeling on the ground shuddered together. They looked up in horror at the source of the sound. Why... why did this sound like the sound of a coffin moving?

After looking at each other in horror, they all lowered their heads and kept repeating the blessing prayer in their minds.

Everything that happened in the cemetery has nothing to do with me, nothing to do with me... Many people added this sentence secretly.

No one cares about the outer tombs, but even if someone is brave enough to go deep inside to check, they can't do it, because the deep tombs are all surrounded by solid walls. It is said that only the key to the mausoleum in the hands of His Majesty the Emperor can open this place, and it will only be reopened when the next big person in the royal family dies.

At this time, in Bai Zhan's tomb, the huge coffin made a moving sound.

The coffin lid moved a few times, as if someone wanted to climb out!

After repeating this several times, the coffin finally stopped moving.

However, there were inaudible prayers coming from inside the coffin.

Inside the tightly sealed coffin, Bai Zhan's body, which had been stitched up, was torn apart again from bottom to top. The blood in his body had long dried up. In order to make the corpse more complete, the undertaker deliberately filled it with blood that matched Bai Zhan's level to ensure the compatibility of his corpse.

At this moment, the blood actually flowed out again from the torn part of Bai Zhan's body, and surged up in a strange way.

A faint blood mist lingered, and the energy in it was dissipating in a certain direction into the void.

At this moment, Bai Zhan, who had already died, suddenly opened his eyes!

His eerie, pale face with a terrible crack shook for a moment, his dull eyeballs rolled up and down, and then he slowly opened his mouth.

Obscure prayers came out of his mouth, but because of the damage to the body, many words became unclear, and his stiff tongue often got stuck in his mouth.

But the prayers are still in effect.

The blood used for filling is being consumed rapidly.

Bai Zhan paused until the blood mist completely disappeared, then recited the command that the prayer pointed to at the end.

"The supreme traveler who has walked the world... hehe... hehe... I beg for your attention..."

The corpse uttered the last word with difficulty, and Bai Zhan finally exhausted all his value.

The air inside the coffin began to fluctuate.

"Tsk, it works better than I thought."

A semi-illusory shadow appeared out of nowhere, it was Sean!

He glanced at the pale corpse of Bai Zhan beneath him and chuckled, "Your Highness, thank you for your last role."

Sean looked around and lifted the hem of Bai Zhan's gorgeous funeral suit to cover his ugly and desperate face.

After looking at every corner of the coffin, he muttered, "It's really well-kept..."

After the burial ceremony, Sean tried to sneak into the cemetery, but failed. To be more precise, it was difficult for him to even get close to the cemetery.

The defensive measures here were beyond his expectations, and both the mausoleum itself and the strange guards here seemed to have a completely closed defense measure. During the burial ceremony that day, Sean suspected that if the emperor had not used the key to the mausoleum, he would probably not have had the opportunity to talk to Liu Feng.

However, Sean always likes to make more preparations, such as this one.

Since he couldn't come in himself, he would let Bai Zhan summon him in.

This is all thanks to Cheryl, even though Cheryl has just grown to baby size and it will take some time for her to fully recover.

However, after Cheryl was promoted to Crimson, her ability to control flesh and blood improved to an even more terrifying level.

Controlling Bai Zhan's corpse was not difficult at all. All that was needed was to leave a little hint of flesh and blood. In addition, as Sean had expected, Bai Zhan's corpse was too miserable. In order to restore it to a similar state, a lot of materials including blood had to be filled in. This just happened to provide the energy needed for the ritual of summoning Sean.

Of course, as the summoned one, Sean naturally greatly relaxed the requirements for the summoning - Sean was still tolerant enough towards the dead prince.

At the same time, even if there is a way to sneak into the cemetery, the risk of using the main body is still too great, and the etheric body is a better choice - if there is any problem, Sean can just run away.

The etheric body observed the surroundings inside the coffin, and after a moment, Sean frowned.

I don't know how this coffin was sealed. After a quick look, I couldn't find a way to get out of the coffin for the time being.

Yes, this coffin also has the function of blocking the etheric body.

But it is obvious that it only blocks the penetration of spiritual power instead of completely isolating the etheric layer, otherwise Sean would be able to appear here.

Just as Sean was considering whether to use more radical methods, suddenly, there seemed to be some strange noises outside.

Sean narrowed his eyes slightly, thought for a moment, and then disappeared into the air inside the coffin.

The coffin began to tremble.

After a heavy sound, the coffin lid opened automatically.

Sean looked puzzled, but he did not go out immediately. Instead, he continued to hide and observe.

Then, a face stretched out.

Is that... the mistress who died for Bai Zhan?

The woman came out of the small coffin at some point, and the desperate and helpless look in her eyes when she was buried was gone.

She had an indifferent expression and just looked at Bai Zhan's body.

"Interesting… I didn't see this woman's flaw before…" Sean smiled to himself.

As soon as this woman made a move, Sean could tell that she was definitely not an ordinary person. The speed and amplitude of her movements proved that she was a veto player with good strength.

As Sean secretly watched, the woman reached out and casually turned Bai Zhan's body over.

After seeing the wound that had been reopened and the blood that suddenly disappeared, the woman frowned.

"How come I've already consumed so much of myself before I even started..."

She looked at Bai Zhan for a long time, then smiled with a complicated expression: "Your Highness, although it is not a wonderful accident that you and I are together, I still have some feelings for you after being together for so long... Originally, I was just a spare chess piece, but since you are not doing your best, I can't do anything about it."

With another long sigh, the woman actually moved Bai Zhan's body out of the coffin again.

"How disrespectful of you. I was just doing some fancy work with the corpse, but you just moved it out directly. Tsk tsk tsk, you're not even as good as me." Sean sighed inwardly.

The woman raised her head and looked back as if she sensed something. In Sean's surprised gaze, she shook her head again.

"His Majesty said... this is a normal phenomenon... a normal phenomenon..." She muttered to herself, as if to cheer herself up. It seems that she is not as brave as imagined.

However, the corners of Sean's mouth slightly raised.

Sure enough, the old emperor was secretly pushing this.

I just don't know whether Bai Zhan's death was within the emperor's expectations... If it was, it means that the emperor's hand is more powerful than I imagined. If not, it proves that the emperor had already prepared for similar situations.

Judging from the current situation, it is most likely the latter.

In addition, after the Fourth Prince Bai Si presented the image of Jehovah accusing Sean of being the murderer, the Emperor quickly approved it.

Who is Sean? With his cautious personality, how could he allow Jehovah to have such a handle?

In order to prevent himself from being targeted by the mysterious power of the royal family, Sean specifically asked Jehovah to kill Bai Zhan, and after both of them were dead, Sean checked again.

If Jehovah had the ability to hide the secret from Sean, he would not have died tragically twice in Sean's hands - this guy is probably resurrected for the third time in his secret base that he thought no one knew about.

What kind of threat can someone pose to Sean when Sean even has a hold on his resurrection location?

Does the Fourth Prince Bai Si have that ability? Obviously not, or rather, he himself does not have it.

Therefore, that image could only be the work of the emperor.

And among them, there are some very interesting things.

Because, the emperor knew one thing, Sean was his 'son'.

After the eldest son died, he wanted his fifth son, whom he had wronged, to die.

Combined with the information Sean learned from Liu Feng, over the years, many unknown princes and princesses died at birth...

Others thought that it was because the emperor was in poor health, so his offspring always had problems, but in Sean's opinion...

The emperor is using these bodies with royal blood to do something.

The best place to hide all this is naturally the royal cemetery strictly guarded by the strange guards.

This is also the important reason why Sean came to see it in person.

Inside the tomb, Bai Zhan's mistress was checking something. After a long while, she raised her body and said to herself, "The concentration is really high..."

After saying that, she picked up Bai Zhan's body again and walked towards the outside of the tomb.

The airtight tomb chamber opened automatically after the woman took out a leaf-shaped key and shook it.

Sean took a look and followed immediately.

The woman seemed to be very familiar with the structure deep in the cemetery. She walked without stopping at all along the way. She stopped when she passed the outer perimeter of the tomb where the eunuchs were kneeling.

Putting Bai Zhan's body on the ground, she walked in.

After a burst of terrified screams, bright red blood slowly seeped from the ground to the outside.

The woman did not stay for long, but continued to carry Bai Zhan's body and walked in another direction.

When Sean passed by and took a look inside, he saw that the eunuchs had indeed fallen to the ground, and there were densely packed corpses everywhere.

However, a scene that seemed familiar to Sean was happening inside.

The blood of the dead flowed into the ground along the grooves in the tomb. Even the corpses began to slowly sink into the tomb as if they were in a swamp.

"Collecting blood and collecting corpses... This method is quite similar to the time in Black Pigeon Prison." Sean muttered.

Combined with the fact that the hand the emperor showed was almost exactly the same as the hand of the prisoner in Black Dove Prison, Sean already had a vague guess.

"Tsk, this old emperor is really unkind..."

Muttering something, Sean continued to follow the woman in another direction.

The woman's steps became faster. She turned a few corners and walked very clearly into a tomb corridor.

She slowed down and observed for a while, and finally stopped in front of a smooth-looking wall.

After pressing a few specific spots, she took out the key and waved it, and the wall made a sound of moving.

A downward hole appeared in the airtight wall.

Following the woman in, Sean showed some strange expressions.

The Royal Cemetery was originally a sanctuary that was not fully raised, but the interior was also rebuilt.

However, this newly appeared downward passage is obviously still in the architectural style of a shelter and has nothing to do with the tomb.

Obviously, this place has not been renovated.

The corridor going down is much longer than expected. Generally, shelters have around 20 to 30 floors, and 40 floors are very rare. Sean roughly estimated that this passage going down goes down nearly 60 floors.

Finally, after walking for a while, the woman stopped.

She stopped in front of a door that appeared suddenly.

A familiar electronic female voice sounded.

"Which saint is coming again?"
