Chapter 187: Questioning
At the sight of this, both the middle-aged man from Falling God Peak and Mei Yanyu inside the hall wore expressions of profound shock.
The two of them hastily circulated their martial True Qi to protect themselves and backed away together at the same time.
But as they tried to leave the hall at the first opportunity, they discovered with horror that the entire hall seemed to be sealed on all sides by an invisible curtain of true flame. The moment either of them drew near it, their hair and clothing began to catch fire on their own, and the extreme heat scorched their skin. There was no way out.
Seeing this, Mei Yanyu's expression shifted through several changes, and he turned to look at Murong Xiaoya outside the hall, saying, "Miss Murong, what is the meaning of this?"
Murong Xiaoya had no intention of answering him. She simply looked at the Bai family patriarch and Bai Changfeng's younger brother and said slowly, "The Bai family was one of the chief architects of this. Naturally I cannot let you die too easily."
With a casual wave of her hand, the two of them were suddenly launched upward, smashing straight through the rafters and roof of the hall and appearing in the air above the entire Bai estate.
And at the same moment, wherever their eyes fell, they witnessed with their own eyes the clansmen of the Bai family throughout the estate, no matter where they stood, having their hearts burst open one after another in rapid succession, their lives extinguished on the spot. Among them were, without question, their own descendants and members of the direct lineage.
In an instant, both men were overwhelmed with grief and fury, their eyes going bloodshot.
They turned their eyes downward at Murong Xiaoya below, burning with rage so intense they seemed to wish they could cut her apart ten thousand times over.
