Chapter 154
A male rival, he thought. Joshua had a pretty good idea. ‘It’s most likely Kingston
In fact, from the very beginning, Joshua had suspected Kingston. When Joshua and Shermaine came to Mysonna, sensing the threat, Kingston nabrally couldn’t sit still and wanted to take the opportunity to strike at Shermaine.
But for Shermaine, Kingston hardly qualified as
He was nothing more than a complete lunatic.
Joshua didn’t discriminate against men who liked men; love knew no boundaries, no gender. But whoever liked Joshua, whether male or female, had better stay as far away as possible.
Before Joshua fell for Shermaine, he had kept himself pure, with love being irrelevant to him. After he fell for Shermaine, she became his only one.
However, the implication of what Shermaine said was different. Joshua pondered over her words several times, feeling delighted, and said softly, “Sheary, sorry to have caused you trouble.”
It was quite troublesome. She had come all the way to Mysonna and entered this strange tomb. But she didn’t really mind.
Shermaine pursed her lips, not saying anything. She probably had a bit of a mischievous streak, inexplicably enjoying watching Joshua whisper sweet nothings to her, which was oddly charming and made her happy.
Despite her complaints, Shermaine didn’t take Kingston seriously. He wanted her life, but killing her wouldn’t be that easy.
After the silver giant snake’s eyes were injured, it collided and slid around, trying to escape. But it didn’t have the chance.
Shermaine had said she would kill the beast, and she would definitely do it. She aimed her gun at the snake again, pulled the trigger, and fired two more
shots.
The bullets embedded themselves in the snake’s body, and its hissing became more and more miserable. A large amount of snake blood kept flowing, and soon the giant snake stopped moving, barely alive. In a short while, it lost its breath.
The air was thick with the smell of blood, and on the ground, some smaller snakes were scurrying around in panic. Perhaps after the death of their king, they were terrified and quickly disappeared.
Shermaine holstered her gun, then squatted down to check the gravediggers lying on the ground to see if they were still breathing. She felt for their breath and found they were alive. They had only temporarily fainted due to poisoning.
However, the corrosiveness of the poison was quite strong. A small wound had already become gangrenous, with the upper layer of flesh dead. If not treated, the wound would worsen, and eventually, the entire face could rot away.
Shermaine took out some iodine and sprayed it directly onto the man’s facial wound. After doing the basic treatment, she said, “James, take the girl with us. Let’s go.”
Since Shermaine already knew who wanted her life, of course, she would take this opportunity to settle the score with him properly.
On the other side, Kingston had managed to shake off the annoying snakes that had chased him. However, after passing through the fifth stone door, he was surrounded by thick fog and couldn’t tell which direction he was heading.
Moreover, there were many human bones on the ground. Kingston accidentally stepped on one and kicked it away in anger after glancing down.
To drive away the snakes, he held a torch. After looking around, he thought it was a perfect place to ambush again.
They had killed the silver giant snake. Kingston figured Shermaine and Joshua would be chasing after them soon. “Put out the fire and prepare the trap,”
he ordered.

Chapter 154
Hearing Kingston’s command, they had no choice but to extinguish the torches in their hands. Just as they were about to take out their tools from the bags to start working, a pair of green, eerie eyes appeared above them.
It was the mummy–like creature with long, dark, and sharp nails. It had a monkey like face on a human body, was as thiri as a skeleton, but incredibly
strong.
As soon as the fire was out, it attacked Kingston and his men.
