My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 438

Chapter 438 

Though it might seem excessive, he would be risking necrosis if he did not treat his arm immediately. 

Xeno retrieved the silver sprouts from Nash’s bag. Nash took a bulb and bit into it. 

The bulb’s stem was crisp and sweet, providing immediate relief. 

Then, the bronze coffin fell to the ground with a loud crash. They glanced upward toward the ceiling, and it was approximately a hundred meters high. 

The group stood up and tiptoed to get a better view. They found themselves at the bottom of a large well-like chamber. The walls were adorned with large cauldrons, their flames 

illuminating the entire cavern. 

“Where’s the King of Medicine’s coffin?” Derek looked around but did not see a coffin. 

Melody looked down at the ground and noticed that the bronze coffin had not landed on the ground but was instead suspended about two meters above it. 

“Could the King of Medicine’s coffin be trapped under this bronze coffin?” she speculated. Without further ado, Derek hurriedly dropped himself onto the ground. 

There, he indeed saw a coffin under the bronze one. It was also made of bronze and appeared quite new. 

“Melody, you’re really smart. It’s underneath!” Derek said. 

Melody pulled her head back inside. The others remained inside as well. Derek realized then that Nash was seriously injured and needed attention. The bronze coffin and the King of Medicine’s coffin were stacked together to be nearly three meters high, so Derek was not able to climb back in. 

After consuming the entire bulb of a silver sprout, Nash’s body began to emit heat. In just a moment, he was drenched in sweat, and white steam-like mist emanated from his head. 

He closed his eyes and carefully controlled the flow of heat through his swollen right hand. The broken blood vessels and tendons seemed to come back to life then, pulsating and moving. 

“Old Herera, the corpses on the opposite side are probably your grandsons,” Anders pointed at several blood corpse bodies across from them. 

The man looked at them, his eyes bloodshot. Then, he lowered his head and said, “Wealth and nobility are preordained while life and death are determined by fate.” He reacted the same way as Old Perry previously. 

Since they chose this path, they had to put life and death aside. 

Bradley turned to Nico and asked with a smile, “Kid, are you scared?” 

Nico nodded heavily. “Of course, I’m scared. This is my first time entering a tomb, and it’s such a scary one too. We also encountered an Undead Corpse King, something none of you have ever experienced. Who wouldn’t be afraid?” 

Bradley replied calmly, “So, are you going to keep going?”

After some contemplation, Nico turned to Heidi. “Heidi, will you still choose this path in the future?”
