C307 Nie Yuan

He looked inside the coffin and carefully took out the Demon Heart Dagger. Then, he gently touched the blood-red object.

The demon heart dagger suddenly shook as if it had met with some delicious food. It suddenly fell out of Zheng Lei's control, leaving his hand just in time to sink in.

Zheng Lei watched as the Demon Heart Dagger completely submerged into the blood-red object. He couldn't help but feel some regret in his heart, but also full of hope. Since the Demon Heart Dagger had a reaction, this meant that his guess was correct.

After waiting for a while, Zheng Lei saw the blood-red object rapidly descending. As for the Demon Heart Dagger, it was still hidden within the blood-red object, causing Zheng Lei to be able to see the end of the Demon Heart Dagger's hilt, but he didn't dare to touch it.

As the blood-red object slowly descended, Zheng Lei's heart began to beat faster. Beneath this blood-red object was buried a hope of his. If the blood-red object disappeared and the area below was empty, Zheng Lei didn't know what would happen to him.

Gradually, Zheng Lei saw the outline of a human figure and could not help but feel excited. That human figure was relatively slim, and it was clearly a female.

As the blood mist was absorbed by the Demon Heart Dagger, it gradually became thinner, revealing the person underneath.

Just from Zheng Lei's face, one could tell who the person below was. That's right, it was the corpse of Nie Yuan, whom he had been searching for for so long.

The Demon Heart Dagger followed the blood-red object as it continued to descend. When the tip of the dagger was about to touch Nie Yuan's body, it suddenly stopped and stood there, as if it had been supported by Ou Yang.

Zheng Lei was overjoyed when he suddenly realized that something was wrong. He focused and quickly took two steps back.

"Damn!" Why are you naked? " Zheng Lei felt depressed. He looked down at the lotus flower in his hand and said, "Nie Yuan, I didn't look at your body on purpose, it's all because of you. You died and I didn't let you live, I even threw you into this coffin.

With that, Zheng Lei took a deep breath and walked to the coffin.

The blood-red item had already been completely absorbed by the Demon Heart Dagger. Nie Yuan's corpse was quietly lying inside the coffin.

If one looked carefully, Nie Yuan's corpse didn't have any signs of decay. Even his skin color wasn't abnormal at all, and it didn't have the rotting white look that a corpse should have. She still looked as ruddy as ever, as if she had fallen asleep.

"I can't believe that this coffin is actually a good item. The corpse hasn't been broken even after being in there for such a long time. Nie Yuan, it seems that the person who harmed you also accidentally gave you a good item." As Zheng Lei spoke, he lightly released the lotus flower in his hand.

After the lotus flower left Zheng Lei's hand, it directly flew towards Nie Yuan's chest, landing in exactly the position between two points.

Zheng Lei was speechless and whispered, "Isn't this lotus flower too good at falling? It always inadvertently draws people's attention."

The lotus gradually landed on Nie Yuan's body as if it had taken root. It slowly opened the last layer of petals, revealing Nie Yuan's soul, which had shrunk countless times. Gradually, Nie Yuan's soul turned into a dot of light that sank into her corpse.

After the soul returned to the corpse, it no longer moved. Zheng Lei silently waited at the side. After waiting for a long time, he still didn't see the soul come out, so he couldn't help but be a bit worried.

"Could it be that I took too long and her soul died? "It shouldn't be. If she died, there shouldn't be any reaction. But it's been so long, why hasn't she reacted at all?" Zheng Lei thought as he raised his head.

When he looked down, he was shocked. He quickly jumped to his feet and looked around vigilantly. After a moment, he looked back into the coffin.

Her body was like a block of ice, while her soul was like a fire source. After her soul entered her body, her body started to slowly melt, and when Zheng Lei looked down, a piece of Nie Yuan's skin had just disappeared, revealing the ghastly white bones underneath.

The sight of the red meat disappearing and the white bones appearing made Zheng Lei uncomfortable. He took two steps back and sat down on the ground, quietly waiting. After a while, Zheng Lei heard a sound coming from the coffin and hurriedly went up to take a look.

With this glance, he couldn't help but feel some doubt. The Demon Heart Dagger had disappeared, as if it had disappeared along with Nie Yuan's corpse. Inside the coffin, there was only a pile of bones. On the ribs on the chest of the bones, all of the lotus petals were piled up on top of it.

"It's gone just like that?" Zheng Lei's eyes were wide open as he stared at the dense white bones within, not daring to believe his own eyes. A sense of defeat slowly sprouted in the depths of his heart.

Zheng Lei originally thought that Nie Yuan would recover his soul after absorbing the corpse's power, but now it had disappeared. Zheng Lei panicked as he looked around. During this entire process, no one had come near him, so there was no possibility that Nie Yuan's soul would be taken away.

Looking inside the coffin, all that was left was a pile of lotus petals. Feeling helpless, he could only bring the lotus petals back with him. No matter what, he had tried hard, and his failure was not due to him alone.

As he thought of this, Zheng Lei carefully reached out and grabbed the lotus petals. With this grab, Zheng Lei instantly felt something unusual. Although these lotus petals looked like lotus petals, they were no longer ordinary lotus petals.

Picking up the pile of items, Zheng Lei discovered that they were quite heavy. Carefully looking at them, he couldn't help but feel a bit more gratified. Through the gaps between the lotus petals, Zheng Lei saw that the Demon Heart Dagger was inside.

Zheng Lei comforted himself with the demon heart dagger and said, "Coming here wasn't in vain after all. I got some good stuff, when I get back I'll let Master see how I can use it."

Even though he said that, he still couldn't suppress the disappointment in his heart. Zheng Lei was stunned for a moment before he let out a deep sigh and said, "Ah, forget it. I'll think of a way to get out of here."

After saying that, Zheng Lei placed the Demon Heart Dagger back into his storage pouch.

"Benefactor!"

Zheng Lei suddenly heard a delicate and clear voice.

"Who!?" Zheng Lei quickly looked around. Other than the corpses, there were only corpses.

"Benefactor!"

"Who is it!" Zheng Lei raised his voice, "Immediately come out and don't play tricks on me. I won't fall for that!"

"Benefactor, it's me. Nie Yuan, I'm in your hands."
