The Cold King and His Spoilt Wife: His Genius Consort Is Breathtaking

Chapter 112: The Strange Coffin

The sound of flowing water attracted Xia Muqing’s attention. She tugged Jin Chao and gestured for him to look towards the wall. The sound of flowing water came from there.

Jin Chao walked closer to take a look, Xia Muqing had already kicked the stone wall.

He couldn’t help but rub his nose and cough.

Xia Muqing pretended not to notice. The stone wall was thinner than she had imagined. A larger space appeared behind it, indicating that she was right. There was something behind.

She walked in and suddenly, a dagger attacked her face. She quickly leaned back and dodged it.

Before she could straighten her body, more daggers shot at her.

Jin Chao pulled her behind his back and protected her by using a dagger as a weapon. He waved the dagger in his hand swiftly, forming a protective shield.

The tips of these daggers were covered with a layer of shiny green light. It was obvious that they were smeared with lethal poison.

After a while, the daggers still couldn’t hurt them. Just as how the daggers had appeared without any warning, they disappeared again in the blink of an eye.

Without the flying daggers, they could finally see the situation in the secret room clearly.

There was a small waterfall here, and under the waterfall was a pool. The sound of water earlier came from there.

However, this waterfall wasn’t flowing with water, but blood. The thick smell of blood had spread.

Xia Muqing suppressed the urge to puke and quickly walked towards the pool.

There were two black figures lying beside the pool. They were the black eagle’s parents.

At this moment, they were in a very bad state. The two Azure Cloud Eagles had fallen into a coma. There was a long tube from their bodies connected to the pool, and their blood seeped into the blood pool.

It was obvious that the blood in the pool hadn’t been formed in a day or two. These people from the Goddess Clan had harmed countless lives.

Xia Muqing wanted to undo the tubes on their bodies when a stone hit her wrist. She ignored the pain and retracted the dagger she had hidden earlier on in her clothes, and flicked it towards the place where the stone had flown out.

With a groan, Xia Muqing turned around. A man darted past quickly. Although it was only for an instant, Xia Muqing could still see his face clearly. He had an ordinary face but his eyes were very beautiful.

It made one feel that such a pair of beautiful eyes shouldn’t be on this ordinary face.

That man had fled after being poisoned by the dagger. When she was fighting against the daggers earlier on, she didn’t lower her vigilance. She had been observing the situation in the secret room. Be it the sudden appearance of the daggers or its sudden disappearance, it meant that there was someone in the secret room and she had been vigilant.

Glancing at the red mark on her wrists caused by the stone, she continued their actions and quickly removed the tubes from the Azure Cloud Eagle’s parents. Just as she was thinking of ways to bring them out, they woke up.

Xia Muqing was delighted and asked, “Can you both still move?”

The Azure Cloud Eagles didn’t expect that Xia Muqing would be here to save them. They tried to stand up. Although they were weak, they could still walk.

The mother Azure Cloud Eagle was worried about her child and asked anxiously, “Where’s my son?”

Xia Muqing reassured her. “The black eagle has been rescued.”

However, she didn’t tell them about the black eagle’s current situation. If she told them now, they would only be consumed with worries.

This time, the Azure Cloud Eagle couple was completely relieved.

Jin Chao suddenly said, “I’m afraid we can’t leave.”

They heard footsteps outside.

Xia Muqing and Jin Chao protected the eagles behind them at the same time. The eagles supported each other with their wings and tried their best not to burden them.
