The person that yelled this out was Elder Yi Gong.
Even though the other elders didn't speak, they were clearly stunned. Even Yi Zhao's gaze suddenly became deep and mysterious.
They couldn't be blamed for having such a huge reaction because this scene… was indeed too shocking!
One had to know that this barrier had always existed after the red-gold heavenly phoenix clan was born. Only people with the clan's bloodline power could safely cross through that barrier. If outsiders wanted to come in without their permission, they had to suffer the bitter torture of their skin being ripped off.
It was extremely hard, and it was why Chu Liuyue found it so painful to come in previously. This was originally the ordeal they purposely set for them!
This move wouldn't take her life or even leave any scars on her body. However, the painful feeling was especially genuine, and normal people wouldn't even be able to endure it.
