Since she could use the Dream Technique on Gu Man, she might be able to use it on her.
Xia Tong subconsciously comforted herself because she felt that that matter was not something she wanted to know.
“Gu Man, no matter what you do to my body, I won’t believe you. Since you’ve already seen through my dream technique, it means that you have some skills. Why don’t we have a good fight?” She stared at Gu Man and said.
She did not really have the heart to have a fair and just battle with Gu Man. She said this on purpose.
Gu Man looked at Xia Tong and did not believe the so-called compet.i.tion she was talking about. Xia Tong had always been certain that she was the one who harmed her granddaughter. How could she fight honestly?
However, Gu Man did not care about this. It was just a way of saying things. As long as she was careful of Xia Tong’s tricks, there should not be any problems.
Hence, she nodded slightly in agreement.
The corners of Xia Tong’s eyes curled into a smug smile. Just as Gu Man nodded, a rune suddenly appeared under their feet. The rune glowed red, illuminating Xia Tong’s entire face.
Her smile grew wider and wider, even giving off the feeling that it was about to reach her ears.
Gu Man looked at the rune under her feet and felt that it was especially familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere before, but she could not find it in her memory.
“Gu Man, since the agreement has been made, we’ll fight to the death. I’ve said it before. I’ll definitely take revenge on my granddaughter.” Xia Tong quickly drew runes in the air. Purple lightning flashed on the runes, and soon, the runes headed in Gu Man’s direction.
It was not enough to just dodge it. This rune seemed to have the effect of tracking. Gu Man could only use her spiritual energy to receive it.
Spiritual energy collided with the runes and caused a huge fluctuation, exploding in the air.
Seeing that this attack did not work, Xia Tong started to draw runes at an extremely fast speed. Similarly, her mouth opened and closed, and it was unknown what she was muttering.
Seeing this, Gu Man raised her hand. Her spiritual power turned into extremely thin threads along her fingertips and headed in Xia Tong’s direction.
In the next second, Xia Tong’s entire mouth was sewn together by invisible spiritual power and she could no longer open it. Even her hands were firmly tied together by spiritual power.
She widened her eyes and looked in Gu Man’s direction in disbelief.
However, Gu Man did not care. “Don’t tell me you think I’ll give you the chance to create some runes to attack me?”
Xia Tong tried to break free from the restraints on her body, but she could not. Her eyes were wide with anger.
But soon, Xia Tong smiled. Even though her mouth was sewn together, from the way she forced through it, it seemed like she was indeed smiling.
The light in her eyes became brighter and the expression on her face became stranger.
Gu Man kept feeling that Xia Tong’s face seemed to have changed, but when she looked carefully, there did not seem to be any changes.
However, the uneasiness in the air made her feel that something was wrong, but she did not notice it yet.
Gu Man sized up the surroundings without any changes. There were no fluctuations in the air either. Xia Tong…
When she looked at Xia Tong again, she realized that the person who was a few meters away from her just now was actually right in front of her.
Xia Tong and Gu Man’s noses were facing each other. Xia Tong’s eyes were exceptionally big, so big that they were even a little strange. Two-thirds of her eyes were black, and her mouth was sewn shut by spiritual power, but she looked like she was trying her best to smile.
A voice came from somewhere, but it entered Gu Man’s ears. “Gu Man, it’s Xia Tong. Give me back my life.”
The next second, the entire room fell into darkness. The demonic wind kept blowing. Almost instantly, she could feel the temperature around her suddenly drop. A bone-piercing coldness seeped through her skin and circulated in her blood.
Gu Man’s pupils constricted slightly, as if she had been frightened out of her wits. She kept staring into Xia Tong’s eyes..
