Chapter 157
Bianca hadn’t intended to show up so late. With her age, she naturally walked slowly, and she hadn’t anticipated that Shermaine and the others woul move so swiftly.
They were almost at the last level of the ancient tomb of the Cursed Queen.
As soon as Bianca arrived, she saw the man, who had ordered his men to tie up her granddaughter, aiming a gun at Sherrmaine’s boyfriend, about to shoot.
She quickly knocked him unconscious and, for good measure, cursed him to make him suffer a bit.
Bianca seemed to be quite familiar with the tomb. Upon seeing the creature, she spoke to Joshua without any panic. “It’s afraid of fire
It had to be said that the relics left by history were eerie and terrifying. This thing was a cursed man. He was dead, but the worm living inside him wasn’t.
It survived by drinking blood, and the more blood it drank, the stronger it became.
However, due to its age, the worm inside had somewhat degenerated: It wasn’t like the one Bianca had encountered in her youth in this tomb, which had almost cost them all their lives.
Fortunately, they knew its weakness and managed to kill it.
But this one was still very strong. It just so happened that it was up against Shermaine and Joshua, who were incredibly formidable. Even if they didn’t know its weakness, they wouldn’t let it harm them in the slightest.
Joshua picked up the chain from the ground again, not very patient. While dodging the creature’s attack, he wrapped the chain around its neck, forming a loop and securing it.
He took out a lighter from his pocket, and as the blue flame flickered to life, the creature sensed it and emitted a sense of panic.
However, it was too late to run. The moment the blue flame touched its body, it was instantly reduced to a pile of ash.
Joshua’s patience was truly remarkable. He took out a bottle of water from his bag and calmly took a sip.
Bianca felt a bit guilty when she saw this. It seemed that the worm she had given to Kingston had bitten Joshua.
Shermaine looked at Bianca with a stern expression.
Bianca coughed and, since she didn’t admit to anything, Shermaine wouldn’t know that the worm was raised by her. “Why are you looking at me? I don’t have any medicine on me that can solve his problem.”
Shermaine pursed her lips.
Bianca stopped teasing her and said, “Go through this maze and keep moving forward. There’s an herbal field ahead. All the herbs grown there are cooling in nature. You can see if there’s any herb that can alleviate his problem.”
Shermaine saw that James and the others had almost finished dealing with Kingston’s subordinates. At the moment, Joshua’s condition was of utmost
importance.
“Lead the way,” Shermaine said, picking up the bag from the ground and walking over to take Joshua’s hand. She managed to hold his hand, realizing Joshua’s palm was very hot, almost burning.
However, instead of pulling him away, she was pulled back into his embrace. He held Shermaine, pinched her chin, and lifted her face. Jo came down.
kiss
Unlike the previous times when their kisses were just a brief touch of lips, Joshua broke through her teeth and entered.

Shermaine pushed him, but she couldn’t budge him.
Joshua sensed Shermaine’s struggle and spoke in a husky voice, releasing her lips. “Sheary, let me kiss you for a bit, okay i
Shermaine’s cheeks were tinged with a light blush. “It’s not going to help.”
“It does,” he said. Shemaine tasted so sweet, and he indeed felt much better.
Shermaine was speechless.
Joshua moved closer to her lips again and gently kissed her twice.
Shermaine’s eyelashes fluttered, and she ultimately couldn’t bring herself to push Joshua away.
James and the others, upon seeing this, quickly turned away, not daring to look any longer.
Bianca, on the other hand, looked up at the sky and hummed to herself.
Shermaine, seeing that Joshua was becoming even more unrestrained, shook off his hand from her waist. “Wait for me here.”
