Chapter 72: Demonic Eye!
Bang!
The young maidservant was violently slammed to the ground by Chai Lie, and her bones nearly shattered.
“Child, are you alright?” a strange voice echoed in her ears.
She looked up, and what greeted her was a shriveled face covered in liver spots. The face was dry and sunken like that of a rat spirit, radiating a deathly qi. The terrified maidservant instinctively tried to crawl backward, but found herself completely unable to move.
A cold, shriveled hand caressed her cheek, making her body tremble uncontrollably. Then, a black arm formed of condensed dark qi emerged from the withered old rat-faced man, gently pulling the maidservant toward him. Then, the courtyard gate closed shut, as if sealed by an invisible force.
Within the yard, the sound of a woman’s piercing, despair-filled screams rang out before blood qi began to spread.

“Daoist Master Yanchu, this is the courtyard where my sister-in-law lives... Eh? Why is the gate shut tight?”
“Could it be... they already escaped?”
When the Feng family descendant led Li Yanchu to Madam Feng’s residence, his eyes widened in shock. The courtyard gate was firmly closed, blocking everyone outside.
Li Yanchu said in a low voice, “The entire Feng residence is in chaos. Even if Madam Feng hadn’t tried to flee, there’s no reason for the gate to be sealed shut like this. And there are no messy footprints outside either.”
He activated his Qi Sight to examine the courtyard, and his gaze immediately darkened. The courtyard was overflowing with blood qi and vengeful qi, which surged skyward like a pillar. The vengeful qi here was far stronger than anywhere else in the Feng residence.
