A woman walked in from outside the door.
Of course, this woman had absolutely nothing to do with an "old woman".
...
Short hair, a face that would have been very attractive had it not been for its emaciated appearance, giving it an extremely sickly feel. Her arms were long, hanging lifeless at her sides, her entire body clad in black leather clothing. In fact, the word "clad" isn't quite accurate, because even the tightest corset would seem loose on her. From the surface, one could even make out the outline of her limbs protruding out, like dried branches, creating a deeply unsettling feeling at a mere glance.
How could a person be so thin?
...
...
Of course, Chen Xiao didn't feel much about this woman's unusual figure; he had seen too many people with strange appearances.
What he was concerned about... was the aura she exuded, one that seemed as dismissive of life as of excrement.
