Chapter 910 - 910 909 An Irresistible Force

910: Chapter 909: An Irresistible Force 910: Chapter 909: An Irresistible Force The most suspicious object should be this jade coffin.

It’s unclear whether this coffin has some kind of peculiar restraint, but Wang Dadong’s Inner Strength cannot penetrate it.

To uncover the truth, opening the coffin is the only option.

“Piao Xue, step back a bit.

I’m about to open this jade coffin,” Wang Dadong said gravely.

Wang Dadong had already described the jade coffin to Piao Xue in detail.

Through the carvings on the wall, it was confirmed that this jade coffin belonged to the Queen of Loulan, Lou Zongying.

Using his immense brute strength, Wang Dadong began to pry the coffin open, bit by bit.

As the jade coffin was opened, unexpectedly, there was another smaller wooden coffin inside.

Wang Dadong recognized the material of the wooden coffin—it was Golden Phoebe wood, a material historically reserved for emperors.

A single piece of such wood is worth a fortune.

The reason Golden Phoebe wood is so precious lies in its exceptional resistance to decay.

Underground, it can remain uncorrupted for millennia and even repels insects, protecting the deceased’s body from being devoured by pests.

Wang Dadong had never seen anything like this before.

Compared to the Golden Phoebe wood coffin inside, the white jade coffin outside suddenly seemed far less valuable.

Wang Dadong took a deep breath, grasped the lid of the wooden coffin with both hands, and pushed it aside.

Creaaak!

The wooden coffin was pushed open, emitting a dull sound that echoed unnervingly in the pitch-black underground.

As the coffin opened, Wang Dadong finally saw what lay inside.

The first thing to enter his sight was an already petrified, beautiful face.

Though it had turned to stone, it still could not conceal its City-Toppling Beauty and extraordinary charm.

This was the Queen of Loulan!

Wang Dadong was certain that if the Queen of Loulan were still alive, her beauty would surpass every woman he had ever seen, even Lin Shiyan was far from comparable!

Perhaps only the Piano Emperor could rival her.

This was a woman whose beauty bordered on the supernatural.

It was indeed Lou Zongying, the Queen of Loulan.

However, such an exceptional beauty had tragically turned into a stone statue.

Wang Dadong shifted his gaze slightly, and his whole body froze again, for he saw yet another absolutely dazzling face.

This face, unbelievably, was even more stunning than the Queen of Loulan’s.

Wang Dadong was at an utter loss for words to describe its beauty.

“This is… Medusa’s head!” Soon, Wang Dadong realized that this face lacked its lower half—it was merely a head, and the hair atop it resembled numerous small blue venomous snakes!

“This is bad!”

Suddenly, Wang Dadong let out a cry of alarm, followed by an overpowering numbness coursing through his body.

Thud!

Wang Dadong fell to his knees.

“Wang Dadong, what happened to you?” Piao Xue asked anxiously in the darkness.

“I… have been… afflicted… with Medusa’s curse!” Wang Dadong’s Inner Strength surged wildly, attempting to resist the vast and mysterious force.

But he realized he was utterly incapable of repelling that terrifying power.

This was an omnipresent, unparalleled force, penetrating everything.

Under its effect, even Wang Dadong’s meridians and Inner Strength began to petrify!

In mere moments, Wang Dadong had turned into a stone statue.

Thanks to his strong Cultivation, Medusa’s image could not curse him; however, Medusa’s head possessed a curse power exponentially stronger.

Not only was he cursed, but he was instantly petrified.

It was a curse that was horrifically extreme.

“Wang Dadong, Wang Dadong!” Piao Xue called out desperately, but no sound from Wang Dadong ever came back.

From the final utterance of Wang Dadong, Piao Xue determined his position.

She came to his side and discovered that Wang Dadong had already turned into an icy, solid slab of rock, cold and unyielding.

Piao Xue’s tears surged forth instantly.

She had never imagined that Wang Dadong would perish one day.

In her eyes, Wang Dadong was the immortal Xiao Qiang.

Even a plane crash from tens of thousands of meters couldn’t claim his life.

She didn’t want to believe it, but the reality lay starkly before her.

Wang Dadong had already turned into a stone statue.

Wang Dadong’s expressions and mannerisms floated vividly through Lin Piaoxue’s mind again.

Wang Dadong had irritated, exasperated, and touched her at different times—like when he sacrificed his parachute on the airplane for a heart-diseased Little Nurse.

Thinking about how the annoying man would never tease her again, would never infuriate her again, made Piao Xue’s heart twist painfully.

Only now did she realize that the rogue-like man had already taken residence in her heart.

“You bastard, how dare you die?

You’re not allowed to die!

I won’t let you die!” Piao Xue desperately hammered on the petrified Wang Dadong.

“Wake up for me!”

Yet no matter how Piao Xue treated Wang Dadong’s stone form, the only response was the despairing coldness and rigidity.

“Please wake up.

If you wake up, I promise I’ll never argue with you again.

I’m willing to be your subordinate—whatever you say, I’ll agree to it… Do you remember our bet?

Just wake up…”

Piao Xue clutched Wang Dadong’s stone body and burst into uncontrollable sobs.

“My beauty surpasses Athena’s; even the great God Poseidon was captivated by my looks.

Come, gaze upon my face… hehehe…”

Suddenly, an eerie laugh resonated in Piao Xue’s mind.

Hearing that voice, Piao Xue’s body stood frozen, then involuntarily moved toward the Golden Phoebe wood coffin.

This was not Piao Xue’s own will; it felt as though she was being drawn by some mysterious force—or perhaps it was due to the words just spoken.

Her mind was consumed with the thought of seeing the face said to surpass Athena’s in beauty.

“Are you Medusa?” Piao Xue asked furiously.

“I am Medusa, the bearer of the world’s most beautiful visage.

Come now, gaze upon my face…” The eerie voice sounded again.

“I’ll kill you!” Piao Xue roared.

Shouting as such, her body continued stepping toward the stone coffin, closer to the coffin one step at a time.

Perhaps the force originated from within her—it was her body; she herself craved to behold Medusa’s beauty.

“Hehehe, no one can refuse my face.

Come now, remove your blindfold…”

Piao Xue had reached the coffin.

She raised her hand uncontrollably to untie the black cloth covering her eyes.

Her eyes opened involuntarily.

If she removed the blindfold, Piao Xue would see Medusa’s visage, and then, like Wang Dadong, she would turn into a hardened stone.

“No, I’ll destroy you!” Just as the blindfold was about to be removed, Piao Xue let out a ferocious scream.

Her hand, which had been about to untie the blindfold, suddenly stabbed into her own eyes.

“Ah!”

A piercing scream followed as searing pain surged, causing Piao Xue’s entire body to convulse violently.

Large beads of sweat slid incessantly down her face.

To avoid seeing Medusa’s face, Piao Xue had gouged out her own eyes!
