The shrill sound of the sword being unsheathed not only made Wu Hua, who was being pointed at, instinctively take a step back in shock, but also sent a chill through the hearts of everyone outside the door.
For those born in peaceful times, it was the first time they truly felt such tangible killing intent.
Especially Gu Qiantong, who watched Jiang Lingxi burst through the door with Lady Aibosi and Vini, screaming unintentionally, felt as if an invisible giant hand was strangling her, her mind going black from lack of oxygen.
Let alone Wu Hua, who was facing Jiang Lingxi directly at this moment.
She was willing to go to any lengths for immortality, but more often than not, she hid behind the scenes, manipulating human nature and hearts at will, only stepping in personally when absolutely necessary.
