58: Chapter 58: Human or Ghost 58: Chapter 58: Human or Ghost "Miss…
Lady Luo?!"
Outside the gate of the Luo Family, the gatekeeper stared in stunned disbelief at the young girl standing outside.
Her complexion was pale, oscillating between green and white, as if he had seen a ghost!
Wasn't Lady Luo… dead?!
Could it be that she couldn't rest in peace, thus she appeared in broad daylight to return?
Thinking this, the gatekeeper was terrified to the point of almost losing control of his bowels and bladder, his legs weakened, and he almost knelt down then and there.
"Miss… Lady Luo… please, please be kind!
Don't stoop to the level of a lowly one like me!
I only spoke ill of you a few times!
I deserve to be beaten!
Please don't make things difficult for me!"
The gatekeeper cried, tears streaming down his face.
Truth be told, he and Luo Qingtong had no conflicts.
When her original self was around, she got along well with most of the Luo Family.
Out of regard for Old Master Luo, who wouldn't give half a measure of respect to Lady Luo?
Even the usually tricky and unkind Second Madam didn't dare say anything against Lady Luo!
Moreover, Lady Luo's strength was the greatest among the younger generation of the Luo Family!
But who could have expected Lady Luo to meet with misfortune thereafter!
With Third Lady of the second branch gaining momentum, Second Madam's tail was high in the sky!
Right now, she's busy packing up things to move to the main house!
Saying that since Lady Luo is dead, from now on, the Marquis Mansion will belong to their second branch!
Who else among the younger generation is as strong as Third Lady, except for Lady Luo?
To please Second Madam, they invariably had to badmouth Lady Luo!
Who would have thought that Lady Luo would come back to life!
The gatekeeper was so scared that his soul almost flew away, and he nearly knelt down to kowtow to Luo Qingtong.
"Lady Luo!
Please spare me!"
Hearing the commotion, the Protectors also ran out and upon seeing this scene, they involuntarily gasped.
"Lady Luo?!"
Wasn't it said that Lady Luo had died?
Could it really be a daytime resurrection?
A sense of eerie fear crept into everyone's hearts.
Luo Qingtong squinted at them without saying a word.
She wanted to see, in the grand Luo Family, how many were genuine humans, and how many were ghosts.
The young girl stood quietly outside the gate, silent and motionless, appearing just like a sculpture made of jade.
When Luo Qingtong returned, she first went to an inn to bathe and change clothes before coming back.
Her appearance was already devastatingly beautiful, and after receiving the legacy of the Slaughter Immortal Palace and being baptized by two treasures, her entire constitution and aura were completely rejuvenated.
Her skin, fair like jade, seemed almost transparent under the sunlight.
The gatekeeper and the Protectors, seeing this, had their eyes glued, more convinced than ever that Luo Qingtong was a ghost!
"Lady Luo… although we acknowledge you died unjustly, people cannot be resurrected from death… everyone has their fate, you…" He said this, suddenly swallowing hard.
But Luo Qingtong was getting a bit impatient and looked up at him.
Meeting the girl's pair of hollow, vast black eyes, the named Protector screamed in horror and ran off tumbling backwards.
"A ghost!
Lady Luo has become a ghost to claim lives!"
Throughout the Luo Family and even Fenglin City, who didn't know that Lady Luo had a pair of stunningly beautiful Qingshui Jianpupils, once praised as "like the water in jade, a deep pool in a cup".
But the eyes of this young girl in front were utterly hollow, if not a ghost, then what?!
"Ah!"
Luo Qingtong watched as people ran and fled, leaving her rather speechless.
She had not even taken any action yet!
And they were already terrified like this!
If she were to make a move, wouldn't these people be scared to death?
Just then, a sharp female voice suddenly came from inside.
"Who?
Who dares to impersonate our Lady Luo outside the gate to deceive and mislead?!"
