For two nerve-wracking seconds, everyone stood frozen in place as they stared at the wall of pulsating black silk in front of them. Until the end, the stagnant silence was shattered by Xinxin who staggered backward and let out a terrified scream. "AH—!"
At once, the scene descended into utter chaos.
Tang Ye took a few steps forward and hovered over the door, wanting to save Brother Zhi yet also did not know where to start. "Oh nonono…! Brother Zhi, are… are you okay?! Can you give me an answer?!" He called out in a panicked tone. But upon hearing no sound from inside aside from the quiet rustle of silk, he turned to ask Sister Hong for advice, "Sister Hong, what should we do? Brother Zhi is trapped inside!"
Sister Hong finally snapped out of the trance she was in. Her complexion was horribly pale, but she quickly regained her composure instead of losing her shit like Xinxin and Tang Ye did.
"Step aside," she ordered.
