The twins “expressions were also a bit serious. Yao Liu, who was sitting beside song qingxiao, seemed to have understood something.
Only number three, the middle-aged man, stopped laughing when he saw everyone’s faces. He turned to look at song qingxiao.
There were a total of ten people who had entered the Gu mansion from the cave alive, seven men and three women. The Gu family chose the women first, followed by the men. The first to enter was song qingxiao, followed by the Daoist nun, and the last was the ordinary girl who had been attacked.
And this time, it was the men’s turn, and number seven was the first to bear the brunt.
In the trial space, this person was domineering and not to be trifled with.
Song Qing broke out of the trap unscathed, and Daoist nun number two returned from the illusion but suffered a loss. It was clear that there was a certain difference in strength between the two.
Didn’t this indirectly prove that the Gu family chose the strong first and then the weak?
When number three thought of this, he could no longer laugh.
At this moment, the wedding sedan that flew over everyone’s heads stopped at the entrance of the main hall with a ‘whoosh’.
The red curtain above the sedan door seemed to be pulled open by a pair of invisible hands, and the stiff red shadow that was originally sitting inside slowly floated down.
The moment ‘she’ appeared, the people who were originally sitting around the courtyard and whispering to each other suddenly became restless. They all stared at the back of the bride with greedy eyes.
Yin Qi began to overflow from the surroundings, and it gradually became thicker, forming a fog that was enough to cover the sky and the sun. It began to spread all over the main hall of the Gu residence.
As soon as the fog appeared, the dim red light from the candles in the hall and the lanterns not far away was shrouded in it, and the faces of all the ‘people’ in the court began to blur.
The previously bustling court was now filled with ghostly Qi, as if they had entered the netherworld.
Suddenly, light spots began to leak out of the bride’s body, which were quickly absorbed by the yin Qi in the surroundings.
The figure of the young lady in the wedding dress was like a deflating balloon, vanishing in a flash, leaving only the red Wedding dress floating in the air.
When the two ordinary boys who were crying saw the girl’s soul being ‘eaten’, they were so scared that they stopped crying.
Song Qing’s small eyes narrowed. What was happening in front of her was quite similar to when she was trapped in the realm, where her consciousness and Ling power were absorbed by the puppet ‘human’.
At this moment, the cultivators were led into the Gu residence by the spirits, and the scene of the Gu and Chu families ‘wedding more than 200 years ago was replayed in the Gu residence.
However, it was said that the two families ‘marriage turned into a funeral and they eventually turned against each other.
If the scene back then was similar to this, the girl being ‘eaten’ could be considered to have fulfilled the legendary ending of the Chu woman.
Just as she was thinking about this, a loud ‘boom’ was suddenly heard from outside.
The sound shook the earth and the sky, as if the entire Gu Manor was shaking. The huge vibration caused the ground to buzz. The tables and chairs in the court jumped twice, and the dishes on the table jumped up. Finally, they fell on the table with a ‘clang’, and soup spilled all over the table.
This loud sound did not stop, bringing about a great shock. Not only the trial-taker, but the other ‘people’ in the court were also shocked, their faces revealing horror.
The sounds of gongs, drums, and suona in front of the Great Hall had stopped. The man and woman who had been sitting on the two old-fashioned wooden chairs in the hall slowly stood up, as if they were about to walk out.
“What happened?” Yao Liu stood up, and the soup on the table began to drip down the edge of the table.
The two ordinary teenagers were so scared that they huddled together, their lips pale and trembling.
“Perhaps the ‘people’ of the Chu clan are here.”
Song qingxiao replied, and Daoist nun number two’s expression changed. Before she could say anything, she heard a man’s voice filled with grief and indignation.
“Old man Gu, return my daughter’s life!”
The voice was full of hatred, like a ghost demanding for one’s life. It reverberated in the sky above the Gu family’s mansion, shocking the hundreds of ghosts at the banquet.
As the shout stopped, there was a ‘whoosh’ sound that broke through the air, followed by a ‘boom’ sound of a heavy collision.
Some unknown heavy object had hit the Gu residence’s door, causing the wooden door to bounce with a bang, as if it would collapse in the next moment from the heavy impact.
An inexplicable nervous and terrifying atmosphere spread in the surroundings. The ‘people’ who were eating, drinking, and laughing just a moment ago began to become restless.
Song qingxiao and the others also felt the tense atmosphere. The battle was about to start. No. 2 was already holding the snow-white horsetail whisk in his hand with a guarded look..
