Chapter 721 - Mad  

“A backlash?” The woman, who was kneeling on the ground and covered in blood, asked in confusion, “What backlash?”

The young voice said, “This is because you killed a mortal! A person with an immortal artifact can’t attack a mortal, or you’d be punished by the Heavenly Dao!”

The woman instantly reacted and roared, “Then why didn’t you say anything before?”

The young voice said disdainfully, “Have you asked me? You deserve this. Now, you’ve even implicated me. You won’t be able to use spells for a while.”

The young voice faintly felt a bit aggrieved. He hated this vicious woman. If he hadn’t accidentally signed a contract with her, he would rather continue to hibernate. This woman used the invisibility spell to commit crimes and caused a lot of harm. However, he could only watch helplessly and couldn’t stop her. After all, she was the master, and he was the servant.

When she wanted to murder someone, he deliberately did not warn her about the Heavenly Dao. He wanted her to receive a deep lesson. Even if he was implicated, he did not regret it at all.

When the woman heard the voice say that she couldn’t use the invisibility spell for a while, she panicked. She pleaded, “Sir, I have to be able to use the spell. Is there any way you can help me? Please.”

Gong Tianhao and Xiao Lingyu were about to return to the capital. She still had many things to do. “Plus, you said the things you’re looking for are with Xiao Lingyu. I will use the invisibility technique to find it for you, alright?”

When the woman said this, she was filled with hatred. Xiao Lingyu had her own space. She heard that the things in the space were all treasures. She had to obtain that space.

The spirit said angrily, “Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. Let me remind you that greed leads to failure!”

“Sir…” the woman cried out in terror.

“Please stop. From today onwards, I will fall into a deep sleep. Due to the backlash, you can no longer use the invisibility spell.” Then, the red rope quieted down.

The woman sat on the ground in a very sorry state. She had never imagined that the consequences would be so severe after killing a mortal.

Her appearance had been destroyed, the immortal was in a deep sleep, and her invisibility spell had been sealed. What should she do now?

She was really unwilling to accept this.

At this moment, someone knocked on her door again.

The woman’s eyes were alert and sharp. She shouted angrily, “Get lost!”

The person who knocked on the door did not leave immediately. Instead, he said respectfully, “The people who are monitoring the Gong family have reported that Gong Zhen and Gong Tianhao have returned to the Gong family. They have also announced to the public that they are going to welcome the return of the mistress of the Gong family and the heir of the Gong family!”

“What?” The woman’s eyes revealed some surprise when she heard that. She asked again, “What did you say just now? Say it again.”

‘How is this possible? Xiao Lingyu and that bastard shouldn’t return to the Gong Family at this time. What is going on?’ The woman’s head was full of noise, and she could not think at all.

“Miss,” the person outside the door called out carefully again.

“Get lost!” The woman shouted crazily.

“Yes!” The person outside the door retreated respectfully. He wanted to ask for orders, but he didn’t want to lose his life.

The woman knelt on the ground and covered her ears. Her expression was ferocious and twisted. Her face was filled with madness and disbelief. When she carefully turned her head toward the mirror fragments on the ground, she was scared and shrunk her head.

She could not accept that she had become a bloody person with a bald head. This was too scary. How was she going to show up in public?

“Sob…” the woman finally broke down and started crying.

A woman’s appearance was her everything.

She did not want to be bald, and she did not want to be so ugly. Therefore, she immediately got up and began to pick up the hair on the ground and the bed. She pasted them on her head. Of course, the hair fell immediately. Furthermore, due to the backlash, new hair refused to grow. The woman collapsed to the ground in a daze.

Outside, her subordinates were confused.

“Boss…” A bodyguard in black frowned and said thoughtfully, “We heard young miss shouting inside just now. The situation doesn’t seem good. Are you sure we don’t want to send people in to take a look?” If something happened to the young miss, they would all suffer. This was because the young miss had fed them poison. Those who betrayed her would suffer a painful death. Therefore, even if they were unwilling, they had to work for her.

The leading bodyguard said, “Miss didn’t let us in. She has her reasons. Let’s wait outside.”

As soon as the leading bodyguard finished speaking, a voice came from his walkie-talkie, “Go and get me a wig.”

“A wig?” The bodyguard thought he heard wrong. Why would miss want a wig for no reason? After all, Miss always cherished her hair. Wearing a wig would damage her natural hair.

“Just go! Why so many questions?” An angry roar came from the walkie-talkie.

“Miss, what hairstyle do you need?” The bodyguard asked very dutifully.

“I want it to be exactly the same as my hairstyle.”

“Of course!”

The doubt in his heart grew. Then, the bodyguard immediately went to make the arrangements.

It was easy to get the wig. However, a wig was not going to have the quality of natural hair.

The leading bodyguard immediately sent it over. “Eldest miss, the wig is here.”

The room door opened gently. Even though it was just a crack, the bodyguard’s sharp eyes immediately noticed that the entire room was blood red. There were strands of hair all over the floor. There was also the thick smell of blood.

He could not help but shout in shock, “Miss, what’s wrong with you? Are you alright?” He was surprised that there was so much blood in the room. Did the miss go mad? But that didn’t seem like the case either. Did the miss kill someone inside her room? But they were there all the time, and they didn’t see the miss capture anyone.

Plus, their miss could use magic. Perhaps that was what she did.

The eldest miss took the wig and immediately threw it out. She immediately cursed angrily, “Bastard, what kind of wig is this? Get me another one. I repeat. I want a wig that is exactly the same as my hair.”

Bang!

The door closed immediately.

“Of course!”

…

Gong Tianhao sent someone to investigate the location Xiao Ling locked on. Soon, someone reported it to him.

“Boss, this is the information you need!” Yue Qilin handed the information to Gong Tianhao.

He didn’t know why the boss suddenly wanted to investigate that place, but as a subordinate, he had to carry out every order seriously.

When Gong Tianhao opened the information and looked at the owner of the property, his eyes suddenly narrowed.

Leng Piaoxue!

A member of the Leng family!

How could it be Leng Piaoxue?

If he remembered correctly, Leng Piaoxue was Jiang Tao’s fiancée. What kind of hatred did she have for Gong Tianhao and Xiao Lingyu that she’d murder to get revenge on them?

Both Gong Tianhao and Xiao Lingyu had no interaction with Leng Piaoxue or the Leng family, so where did the hatred come from? Or the person living there wasn’t Leng Piaoxue? She just owned the place.

Gong Tianhao continued to read on. The report stated clearly that Leng Piaoxue was currently residing in that villa.

Gong Tianhao narrowed his eyes slightly, closed the documents, and said to Yue Qilin, “Get someone to investigate the Leng family and Leng Piaoxue. I also need all the information on Leng Piaoxue.”

“Yes!” Yue Qilin replied.

“Remember, you must be careful. Don’t alert them. Leng Piaoxue is not a simple woman!” Gong Tianhao instructed.

Of course, he could not tell Yue Qilin that Leng Piaoxue might have an invisibility spell. She might kill him to silence him.

However, when he thought of Xiao Ling saying that immortals couldn’t kill mortals without suffering backlash, he calmed down slightly.

As long as she couldn’t use the invisibility spell, then things should be much easier.

However, what Gong Tianhao was particularly curious about was what kind of backlash Leng Piaoxue would be suffering right now?
