A sharp laugh came from the corridor. Even if one did not see them, they could feel their old aura.
Gu Man took a step out of the door. Just as she took a step, she could feel the cold air outside the door sweeping over. She seemed to be waving casually behind her, but she had actually set up a spiritual door at the door, blocking all the cold air from entering the room.
She looked at the empty corridor and looked around unintentionally, but her gaze was actually wandering somewhere.
That was where the spiritual energy was the most abundant.
A silver line gradually spread out from Gu Man’s pocket and quickly spread forward along the ground. When it touched the place with the most spiritual power, it stopped.
In just a second, the end of the silver line gradually expanded at an extremely fast speed until it exploded.
The moment the explosion happened, the cold air in the corridor subsided a lot. Even the sunlight shone into the corridor, and the atmosphere of the evil entities decreased a lot.
“Is this all you have? Then I really thought too highly of you.” Gu Man walked out of the door step by step until she stepped into the corridor.
The sunlight that landed in the corridor gradually heated up, and the surrounding air distorted. The temperature rose bit by bit at a speed that could be felt by humans, but Gu Man, who was standing in the middle, seemed to have formed a cold isolation layer. All the heat had nothing to do with her.
The woman’s voice sounded again, but this time, it was no longer the delicate laughter from before. Instead, she was flustered. Her voice seemed to come from afar, but also seemed to be very close. “Grandma, she doesn’t seem to be affected at all?”
The sharp voice did not ring out either. The staircase was very quiet, but the distorted air was not peaceful. Gu Man seemed to be able to see the red flames jumping and getting closer and closer to her.
It was about to jump in front of Gu Man when she reached out impatiently. When she opened her hand again, only ashes appeared in her palm.
The ashes on her hand smelled like incense ash. Gu Man flipped her wrist and scattered all the incense ash on the stairs. When the wind blew, the incense ash scattered in the air.
It seemed to be floating randomly, but in fact, they were all heading in one direction.
When the ashes landed on an object, there was a sharp scream and a woman’s cry of pain.
The figure in the corner gradually appeared.
Gu Man looked at the corner. There was a woman standing beside Xia Tong. The flesh on her face was falling bit by bit, revealing the flesh inside.
The woman kept making sharp sounds. It was an old voice that did not match her age. She reached out to catch the falling flesh, but she realized that the flesh in her hand was also falling.
However, the strange thing was that even after dropping so much, there was no white bone under the skin. Although the woman looked slender, the amount of flesh she dropped did not match.
Gu Man walked down the steps step by step. Every step seemed to be stepping on their hearts.
As she approached, Gu Man waved her hand and the flesh stopped falling. However, her charming and graceful face became filled with wrinkles. After all, all the flesh was sagging, making her look old.
The old lady was overjoyed as she looked at her flesh that no longer fell, but she still stared warily in Gu Man’s direction, as if she was a ferocious beast.
“You’re from the Xia family?” Gu Man sized up the old lady and couldn’t help but sigh in her heart. Was it indeed because it had been too long? She had thought that the elders of the Xia Family would make her look at them in a different light, but now it seemed that they were just average.
However, the spiritual energy on her body was indeed much more than that of ordinary people. It could even be compared to her current spiritual energy.
However, when one was old, they would run out of steam.
Xia Tong grabbed the arm of the old woman beside her nervously. “Grandma, it’s her.”
There was still some fear in her eyes, but when she saw her grandmother beside her, she inexplicably became confident. She looked at Gu Man with a smug expression, as if she had completely forgotten what had just happened.
Grandma Xia did not respond to Xia Tong’s words. She stared at Gu Man, her hands still moving..
