She saw a man being chained to one side of the wall with his hands and legs cuffed up tightly in iron chains. Each chain which shimmered black was as thick as her arm!
The person had a messy face while wearing a mustard-yellow Taoist robe. There was a sword protruding out from his heart while his robe was covered in blood. It might have been there for a long time as the blood had turned black.
“Woo!”
Eira gently let out a sigh and silently comforted herself upon seeing that.
It turned out to be just a corpse. There was nothing to be scared of if it was just a corpse.
Eira still did not know at that moment the person in front of her was the famous General of Heaven who was the Yellow Turban Rebellion Leader during the Three Kingdoms era—Zhang Jue.
Megan also coincidentally fell into this pit a few months ago. Zhang Jue asked Megan to help him and promised to pass on the Immortal Pure Scripture to her as repayment at that time. It turned out that Megan pierced Zhang Jue with her sword to his death once she obtained the Immortal Pure Scripture.
‘Who’s this person?’
Although she was comforting herself, Eira was still extremely nervous as her heart raced upon witnessing Zhang Jue’s tragic situation.
What surprised Eira more was that the person in front of her was clearly dead for some time. However, his body showed no signs of decomposing. It was like he was just in a slumber!
After looking at him for some time, Eira gradually calmed down and slowly walked forward as she tried to cut the chains off Zhang Jue’s limbs using her sidearm.
At the same time, Eira reverently said, “My fellow senior. Although I don’t know who you are, we’re fated to meet each other, so let me give you a proper burial.”
The Emei Sect believed in Buddhism which led to Eira possessing a compassionate heart from listened to Buddhist Scriptures since young. She suddenly felt sympathy upon seeing Zhang Jue who died while being tied up.
However!
The chains made of Master Steel were extremely tough such that her sidearm could not even cut through it.
Eira was suddenly anxious as a thought suddenly occurred to her. ‘Would this person have the key on him?’
she started searching through Zhang Jue’s robe with that thought in mind and accidentally touched his energy field.
