The old woman grew even more angry, shouting, "Wretches, I'll kill you all! I want to strip off your clothes, hang you up, and pour cold water on you..."
Before she could finish, another girl pounced over and stabbed her with a hairpin.
Inspired by her, the other girls came forward one by one.
The old woman yelled, "I'll rip off your fingernails, snap your fingers...you wretches! Give me a quick end, I beg you!"
The girls pinned her down, their hands moving swiftly, and after a while, the old woman finally stopped breathing.
The girls started crying.
Chen Shi looked at his blood-stained palms, and said to the approaching Hu Feifei, "Sister Feifei, they only seem human now. When I first saw them, they were numb, like soulless husks, letting themselves be manipulated. But now, their souls have returned."
