“I did not catch you with one hand?” Despite the fact that the previous girl had misplaced an arm, she nonetheless sneered as she spoke after which shook her remaining arm.

With a crack, her proper arm additionally shook off and fell to the bottom.

All of a sudden, black arms emerged from the bottom in layers, resembling the branches of a tree.

By way of pure yin vitality, it was even stronger than the previous girl from earlier.

“We didn’t come right here to rescue you within the first place,” Ling Ao interjected.

Chu Liang silently nodded to himself, pondering that whereas this manner of talking lacked social grace… It was fairly satisfying.

Jiang Yuebai well timed requested, “Officer Chen, why did you enter this deserted Shen Household Residence?”

The court docket additionally sealed the information, stating that the Shen household rebelled and this place harbors vengeful spirits, forbidding anybody to method.

“It is virtually twenty years now, and the restriction has out of the blue lifted…” he mentioned with a nervous tone. “I am unsure whether or not it is a blessing or a curse.”
