Chapter 185: A Killing Frenzy
But at that very moment, the Yuan family patriarch suddenly furrowed his brow and looked toward the entrance of the council hall, saying in a low voice, "Something is wrong."
The Yuan family head followed his gaze, then slowly rose to his feet, "Something is indeed wrong. It is far too quiet."
At the same time, inside the Yuan family estate, Murong Xiaoya walked in through the front gate.
Everywhere she passed, every member of the Yuan family she encountered had their heart burst and dissolve without warning, the blood mist condensing into threads of refined blood that she absorbed entirely.
As she took in more and more refined blood, Murong Xiaoya's aura deepened until it was like a vast and bottomless abyss. Her expression grew colder and colder, and her entire body became shrouded in a thick crimson light too dense to disperse.
The eyes behind those molten gold vortexes seemed to hold no feeling of any kind anymore. She had become something like a human blade, capable only of slaughter, harvesting lives in mechanical succession.
Every member of the Yuan family, regardless of their martial cultivation, fell the moment she appeared before them, before they could even manage a word of challenge, each contributing their thread of refined blood as sustenance.
After absorbing the dozens of martial cultivation currents from her eldest brother's body, Murong Xiaoya's strength had already reached a terrifying level. And as she continued killing and absorbing refined blood, that level kept rising at a rate that defied imagination.
In the darkness of the night, Murong Xiaoya walked step by step deeper into the Yuan family estate. In her wake there were no rivers of blood, only fields of corpses.
