Yu Xiaoxiao punched a deep hole in the wall, and the person hiding in the darkness bent the five fingers of his right hand into a claw shape, approached Yu Xiaoxiao, and grabbed her throat.
Yu Xiaoxiao did not dodge either, but struck the man in the face with her backhand. Seeing Yu Xiaoxiao's palm coming at him, the man bent his hand into a claw and flipped it upwards, colliding with Yu Xiaoxiao head-on, blocking the attack.
When they passed each other, Yu Xiaoxiao also saw the man's appearance clearly. He was the youngest among the seven prisoners. He looked like a small follower and errand boy. She didn't expect that he had such ability. "Did you let me catch you on purpose?" Yu Xiaoxiao asked the man.
The young man stepped back a few meters and stood between Yu Xiaoxiao and a half-human figure, Chu Qiu. There was a strange expression on his fair face, with desire in his madness.
Chuqiu turned around on the ground, making a whimpering sound similar to that of an animal. He looked at the young man and finally faced Yu Xiaoxiao.
"Ha," the young man chuckled.
Chu Qiu stood up from the ground and pounced on Yu Xiaoxiao as if he had received an order to attack.
Yu Xiaoxiao kicked Chu Qiu towards the young man.
The young man dodged Chu Qiu who was flying towards him. Chu Qiu hit the wall behind the young man, causing the wall to crack. Chu Qiu's body sank deeply into the wall, and the flesh on his body fell to the ground, but no blood flowed out.
When the young man saw that Chu Qiu’s two attacks missed, the expression on his face became fierce.
Yu Xiaoxiao pointed at the skinless bodies behind her and asked the young man coldly, "Did you kill them?"
The young man looked at Yu Xiaoxiao's eyes and they turned blood red in an instant.
With bloodshot eyes, Yu Xiaoxiao frowned even more tightly and asked, "Who is Mo Wen to you?"
The young man rushed towards Yu Xiaoxiao,
Yu Xiaoxiao jumped up on the spot and avoided the young man's attack. The young man's fist landed on the iron bars of the cell, breaking a dozen solid iron bars as thick as an adult man's arm.
The young man's fist missed and he turned around to look at Yu Xiaoxiao, his expression still fierce, and he licked his lips with his tongue.
Yu Xiaoxiao suddenly felt that in the eyes of this young man, she might be just a piece of fresh meat. Is this guy also a medicine man? Yu Xiaoxiao had a question in her mind.
The young man still silently punched Yu Xiaoxiao, his blood-red pupils reflecting no images, as if he were a dead object.
Yu Xiaoxiao moved slightly and landed in front of a piece of flesh that fell from Chuqiu's body, and kicked the piece of flesh towards the young man.
The young man grabbed the two palm-sized pieces of meat, and with a squeeze, the large piece of human flesh became minced meat, but the meat was bright red, and there was not a drop of blood. The young man lowered his hands and looked at Yu Xiaoxiao with a fierce and crazy look.
"Bloodthirsty," Yu Xiaoxiao muttered to herself.
The young man rushed towards Yu Xiaoxiao again.
This time, Yu Xiaoxiao did not hold back any more strength and struck out with one palm. The young man was unable to dodge and was hit in the chest by Yu Xiaoxiao. The young man flew up and hit the wall behind him heavily.
Without waiting for the young man to stand up, Yu Xiaoxiao approached the young man, slashed downward with the dagger in her hand, and cut off a piece of flesh from the young man's face.
The blood instantly dyed the young man's face and entire front body red, but the young man just looked at Yu Xiaoxiao without making a sound.
There was no smell of Chinese medicine, and no trace of nematodes. Yu Xiaoxiao took a step back. Isn't this person a medicine man?
The young man stood up from the ground. Although he didn't speak, he was obviously conscious. Having seen how powerful Yu Xiaoxiao was, the young man stood against the wall and was no longer in a hurry to attack.
Chu Qiu was struggling to get out of the wall, and a lot of his flesh was scratched off by the bricks and stones.
Yu Xiaoxiao glanced at Chuqiu who was curled up at the young man's feet, and found that although there were still many exposed bones on her body, new flesh had actually grown on Chuqiu's thighs where she had just lost flesh!
Yu Xiaoxiao looked at Chu Qiu with a paralyzed face. This woman could still live without skin. Her flesh fell off and grew back in such a short time. More importantly, the blood in this woman's body seemed to be gone. What kind of monster was this? Whether it was a zombie or a medicine man, there were still body fluids even if the blood dried up. What kind of creature was Chu Qiu?
The young man clenched his fist, and his knuckles made a loud friction sound.
Yu Xiaoxiao looked at the young man's face where she had cut off a piece of flesh. She felt something was wrong. From the incision, this skin did not seem to grow on this person. There were too many gaps between the skin and the flesh, and she could not see any capillaries. How could there be no capillaries between the skin and subcutaneous tissue of a normal person?
"You," Yu Xiaoxiao frowned and looked at the young man in front of her, and suddenly remembered something. Yu Xiaoxiao looked around and found that the two bodies had been skinned. Now the bodies were there, but where did the skins go?
Chu Qiu whimpered and rubbed her rotten face against the young man's legs.
The dagger in Yu Xiaoxiao's hand suddenly raised again, and with a flash of cold light, it cut off the skin on the young man's entire face.
The young man, who had suffered another severe blow, finally roared out in anger. The voice still sounded like a human voice, but it was surprisingly angry.
Yu Xiaoxiao stared at the young man's neck. After the skin on his face was cut off, the skin on the young man's neck seemed to have lost its support and collapsed below the collarbone. This skin definitely did not grow on this person!
In the imperial study, the eunuch in charge of the Ministry of Punishment narrated the whole story tremblingly.
"Something is wrong?" Xianzong asked, "Did the princess tell me what is wrong?"
The eunuch in charge said, "The princess said that she couldn't hear anything in the dungeon."
Xianzong asked, "You can't hear any noise? Are all the people in the dungeon dead?"
The eunuch in charge shook his head and said, "I don't know."
Gu Xinglang rushed out of the imperial study without saying a word.
"Quick!" Xianzong saw Gu Xinglang running out. Without thinking, the Emperor knew what his son-in-law was going to do, so he hurriedly shouted, "Stop the Prince Consort for me!"
The imperial guards outside the door hurriedly reported to Emperor Xianzong: "Your Majesty, the consort has escaped!"
Xianzong could no longer sit still and stood up to leave.
At this time, Young Master Gu glanced at Young Master Su who was sitting on the recliner, and said to Emperor Xianzong, "Your Majesty, I will go to the Ministry of Punishment to take a look. Please wait in the Imperial Study for a while."
Xianzong looked at Gu Xingnuo. He was not worried that anything would happen to his daughter. He was worried about what would happen if his son-in-law got provoked and went crazy.
"A person of a thousand pounds should not sit in a dangerous hall," Young Master Gu whispered to Emperor Xianzong, "Your Majesty, please do not go to a dangerous place in person."
Emperor Xianzong then sat down again and watched Gu Xingnuo and the eunuch in charge of the Ministry of Punishment quickly walk out of the imperial study.
