Jiang Xiaobai watched Cheng Xuanzi's every move from the shadows. When Cheng Xuanzi opened the coffin lid, he wasn't surprised, but what Cheng Xuanzi did next took him by surprise.
The old man actually lay down in the coffin, pressing onto Tang Yu's corpse!
Jiang Xiaobai couldn't believe it, finding Cheng Xuanzi's actions utterly baffling. Why would he lie in the coffin? What was he thinking?
Most people find corpses extremely taboo, yet Cheng Xuanzi not only wasn't bothered but chose to lie atop the body. Jiang Xiaobai knew him well enough to know Cheng Xuanzi wasn't insane—he must have a deep reason for his action.
Jiang Xiaobai thought of stepping out to confront Cheng Xuanzi, but reconsidered. If he appeared now, Cheng Xuanzi probably wouldn't tell the truth. It was better to wait and see what he was up to.
Not long after, a green light emerged from the coffin. The eerie glow seemed to be entwined with countless resentful spirits, emitting a truly hair-raising sound.
