No one could withstand the combination of two formidable powers.
"Let give you a taste of this. I believe you’ll never forget it. In the future, when you see , you’ll hide far away," Shangguan You said, flapping her wings proudly, almost like a queen, standing above everyone else. Her transparent wings gently lifted her body. With a strong sweep of her palm, she unleashed a vast surge of Spiritual Energy over those around her. Her legs kicked out in all directions, and Ye An Ya and several others were simultaneously swept aside, crashing to the ground as a series of loud THUDS echoed continuously. They fell from mid-air, stirring up clouds of dust as they landed. Everyone was shocked. The won on the ground couldn’t believe they had been instantly defeated by Shangguan You without even a chance to fight back.
How could this be possible?
The whooshing sound of wind in their ears continued as darkness quickly engulfed the surroundings. From the original bluestone floor, countless hands reached out, firmly grasping Ye An Ya’s feet and forcefully pulling her body down into the earth.
"AHH!" Ye An Ya scread. As countless hands clawed at her, she thrashed, lashing out with ghostly hands ford from her Spiritual Energy as she shrieked.
"Ye An Ya, consider this a lesson. In the future, you’d better take a detour when you encounter ," Shangguan You said as she descended from mid-air. With a wave of her hands, a transparent throne appeared behind her. She crossed her arms elegantly and sat regally on it, coldly observing those caught by the ghostly hands as they were slowly pulled into the ground.
With another gesture from Shangguan You, those who were resisting suddenly lost their strength, along with the ability to use their Spiritual Energy. They scread in shock once more. Bai Qiangwei fared no better, though a hint of excitent flashed in her eyes.
The Seal Spirit Curse and the Weakness Curse made it impossible for them to utilize even a fraction of their Spiritual Energy, and their bodies beca like those of ordinary people. "You think yourselves the favored daughters of heaven, so full of yourselves—now try and experience the powerlessness of ordinary people."
Sitting on the throne like a queen, Shangguan You looked on coldly and proudly as they struggled without their Spiritual Energy, fighting against the death spirits. This scene would be eternally etched into their mories. Indeed, not only the victims but also the bystanders would rember this spectacle vividly.
"Shangguan You, what sorcery have you used? Why can’t I use my Spiritual Energy? Ah! Get away, get away!" Ye An Ya bellowed angrily, kicking at the hands that surrounded her. Pair by pair, the hands were kicked away, but then even more hands erged, gripping her tightly and immobilizing her.
Her body was gradually pulled into the ground. Rose, Haitang, and Zhuge Yao fared no better. Half of Li Zhaohong’s body was already buried in the dirt.
The onlookers paled, instinctively stepping back as they watched Shangguan You, their eyes full of fear and trepidation. They had never known of an ability that could control the God of Death. Those who had been sizing up Shangguan You with their own abilities quickly retracted their powers and retreated further.
The screaming persisted. However, the death spirits around them did not diminish because of their screams; instead, their numbers grew. Li Zhaohong’s body was completely obscured from view, with only a hole left in the ground where she had disappeared.
The other attackers already had half their bodies pulled into the ground, sinking at a visibly slow rate. Those who might have wanted to help stepped back at the sight before them, maintaining a safe distance. They didn’t want to be buried alive, much less dragged down with them.
「From afar」
The four Family Heads took in the scene, their faces calm but their hearts pounding with shock. The ability to control death spirits had existed in the past. However, this was a lost art. Moreover, to cultivate such an ability, one must have had contact with the God of Death. Shangguan You had managed to do just that. If we were to take action, what chance would we stand? With the Five Spirit Pearls in her possession, her already formidable power, the strength of her Spiritual Artifacts, not to ntion her miraculous dicine... how many more secrets does she possess that we are unaware of? How many trump cards has she not yet played? We simply don’t know.
She had instantly wiped out dozens of people with a single move—individuals their families had spent countless resources painstakingly cultivating.
Unable to withstand even a single blow, Shangguan You was too terrifying, too powerful. The Shangguan Family was not to be provoked. No one dared to challenge them, much less offend them. Whoever crossed the Shangguan Family would et with misfortune. Using her power to control death spirits, Shangguan You once again deeply intimidated all of Hidden World Village. Those who had harbored designs on the Shangguan Family quickly abandoned such thoughts. Instead, they beca even more resolute in their decision to have their respective Young Masters marry Shangguan You.
"The people of the Shangguan Family are indeed arrogant, but they also have the capital to back it up," a mild voice sounded. Ye’s Second Young Master pushed Ye’s First Young Master forward. The First Young Master appeared before them, pale-faced, a calculating glint in his eyes. Ye’s Third Young Master stood coldly beside him, silent, his gaze towards Shangguan You complicated.
"So what if I’m arrogant?" Shangguan You sneered. "Ye’s First Young Master, do you want to try the feeling of being roasted alive again? If that’s what you wish, I will certainly indulge you. I won’t disappoint." He called mud on the ground? Well, now I’ll show him who truly is mud and who is a cloud in the sky! She wasn’t afraid of the Ye Family.
With a wave of Shangguan You’s hands, her wings vanished. The ghostly hands holding those who had been buried alive disappeared. One by one, they crawled out of the holes. The once high and mighty crowd now looked as pathetic and wretched as could be.
Ye An Ya’s face was sared with blood, and her shrieks were unceasing as she climbed out. Her clothes were torn to shreds, and the others were in no better state. Though they had frantically scrambled out from among the corpses, the terror they had just experienced still lingered in their minds, difficult to forget.
