"Hahahaha!!" The beast with a human face laughed manically, ignoring everyone as it thrashed its limbs about.
"Hahaha! The sun sets, the moon sets, when Mount Taihua dims in the noontide, dusk seeks to fall, dawn seeks to rise, the nine calamities the dragons of heavens—Mars blazes, Jiang Mansion crashes down as the milky jade drearily turns into the grand Fate Commander's flowing gold! Hahaha!!"
After making that crazed declaration, the vulture-bodied, bald-headed creature simply collapsed to the ground, motionless.
Everything unfolded so rapidly that everyone present was too stunned to react, merely standing there in shock.
Eventually, the woman with her belly ripped open and barely clinging to life flung herself onto the creature's body, wailing in despair, "My child~~ Ahhh!!!"
Her cry stirred action among those surrounding her.
"Protect the Emperor! Protect the Emperor!!" Gao Zhijian was instantly safeguarded by a tight circle of individuals.
