Su Ling stood frozen to one side.
At last, her face showed an expression befitting a fourteen-year-old girl.
She bit her lower lip lightly, her little face deathly pale.
The man before her, who had initially seemed innocent and clueless, was slowly stripping away his disguise. The crazed look that had inadvertently slipped into his eyes as he swung the hammer sent a chill through even Su Ling, who had witnessed plenty of horrifying scenes.
