Zhu Qingyue leaned against the wall beside her, her mind somewhat dazed, but she had finally come to her senses.
She breathed in the icy fresh air, calming herself down; then she touched her forehead, feeling a slight fever as if she were coming down with something.

The old man had no eyes, and the aura he gave off was particular strange. At the moment of seeing him, she felt paralyzed.
One thing she was certain of was that it was definitely not a human being.
