147 Are You a Stone With Hair? (1/2)

There were flowers and trees in the garden. The weather was windy in autumn. Gu Xijiu sat at a gazebo and leaned on a post. She enjoyed looking at the flowers while deep in thoughts.

Suddenly, something happened!

A cold light appeared out of nowhere like a lightning directly shooting towards her forehead.

The cold light was extremely violent. Before it reached her, the wind that was brought up by the light could even cut someone’s skin!

If Gu Xijiu didn't avoid it in time, she would be killed on the spot by the light.

Although she had lost her teleportation ability, her reaction speed was extremely fast. When she saw something amiss, she immediately leaned backward to dodge and the cold light swept closely from her face.

She rolled over a few times followed by a leap.

Another cold light shot towards her again and Gu Xijiu tried to dodge it.

With the Qing Gong that was taught by the Firmament Stone recently, coupled with the internal strength that she had just practiced, she could barely dodge from the light. However, she looked fidgety and if she did not pay close attention, she would have been stabbed by the light.

Fortunately, there were quite a few guards patrolling the courtyard. When they heard the movements, they quickly rushed over to investigate.

When the guards appeared, the cold light disappeared too, as if nothing had happened.

After a few dodges, Gu Xijiu looked very ashamed with her messy hair and clothes. Apparently, she had endeavoured her best to avoid the lights.

The guards also witnessed the tail of that light, but they could never see the person who attacked. They were shocked as there were not many people who had the ability to be invisible. People who knew how to be invisible with such a powerful attack were even fewer, such people were mostly the clan leaders.
