Chapter 434: Wanting to Commit Suicide
The dark and damp dungeon was filled with a thick, humid, and bloody atmosphere. A slender figure was imprisoned within a cell.
The young man hung his head low, his messy, ink-black hair falling over his body, obscuring most of his face. Several silver-black, specially made chains bound his hands. Both wrists had long, gaping wounds, seemingly coated with some kind of special potion, preventing the wounds from ever healing.
Crimson blood dripped down from his wrists, forming a line of blood in the air, with pottery jars placed below to catch it.
Once filled, someone would take these two jars of blood away.
This had been going on for the past six months.
Click.
The iron door opened.
A faint light shone in, illuminating the figure and appearance of the person entering. Yun Qi's fingers twitched slightly, but he made no other movements. If an uninformed outsider were to see him, they might mistake him for a dead man.
"Qi."
A familiar voice called out. Yun Qi suddenly opened his deep, pool-like fox eyes, staring at the bright and beautiful female at the doorway, "...Your Highness?"
"I've finally seen you, I've missed you so much, Qi!" The girl looked at him with tears in her eyes, her gaze filled with worry.
"Why has Your Highness returned?"
"I couldn't stop worrying about you, so I came back." She sighed sadly, "Look at you, you've turned yourself into such a pitiful state. If you just agree to the Pavilion Master's conditions, you wouldn't have to suffer these tortures anymore."
"...Did Ye Wushuang send you to persuade me?"
"Yes, I begged the Pavilion Master for a long time before he agreed to give me this favor. As long as you agree to the Pavilion Master's conditions, I'll take you back to my manor. Then, the two of us can be like immortal companions, living a carefree life, wouldn't that be wonderful?" She reasoned with him, appealing to his emotions.
Yun Qi's eyes turned cold as he slowly uttered,
"You are not her."
Princess Ji Wan's heart skipped a beat. Ye Wushuang had revived her, wanting her to persuade this nine-tailed celestial fox to submit. Could it be that this kid had seen through her so quickly?
Impossible, she was acting so much like her, and with the same face, how could he possibly see through her! He must be deliberately testing her!
Her eyes filled with mist, looking pitiful, "What nonsense are you talking about? If I'm not me, then who else could I be? I am Princess Ji Wan."
Princess Ji Wan wanted to hug the young man, but the sound of the chains scraping on the ground made her retreat in fear. She looked up and met the young man's cold, resentful gaze, which was completely different from his previous gentleness, making her afraid to approach him again.
Her beautiful eyes widened, and she trembled with anger, "What do you want? I am your wife!"
The young man remained unmoved.
"Your Highness can try it. See if I will snap your neck if you come near me."
"You!" Princess Ji Wan could no longer keep up her act. Her eyes blazed with anger, and she gritted her teeth, "What? That impostor who stole this princess's body came, and you're happy to fawn over her, but when I stand in front of you, you give me that stinky face!"
"Don't forget who married you! Who is your real wife?"
Yun Qi closed his eyes, not even wanting to look at her again.
Princess Ji Wan was almost angered to death.
She had been pampered and loved since she was a child. Male beasts would fawn over her when they saw her. When had she ever seen a male beast dare to look at her with such a disdainful and hateful gaze, trampling on her confidence!
Suddenly, Princess Ji Wan seemed to laugh in anger. She took out a glass jar from her sleeve, containing a slave seal, "You don't love me, do you? Then I'll let you taste the ultimate pain that penetrates your bones!"
She waved her hand, and the slave seal entered the young man's body through the wound.
"This is a good thing that the Pavilion Master gave me, a Heart-Binding Slave Seal. With this slave seal, you will be my running dog! My slave! You can never harm me, and you can't fall in love with anyone else besides me, or you will suffer the pain of burning your heart and refining your bones, until death, only then will you be completely free!" The girl laughed maniacally, her beautiful face twisted and terrifying.
Her things could only be hers. If he dared to betray her, then she would rather destroy him!
The young man's pupils shrank, and his body was covered with veins. He wanted to break free from the control of the slavery, but the chains bound his movements, and he could only watch helplessly as the slave seal gradually penetrated his skin, entered his flesh, and completely bound with his soul.
He collapsed weakly to the ground, his eyes filled with despair.
Death was liberation.
Then he would rather die.
Princess Ji Wan saw Yun Qi's decadent and dog-like appearance, and laughed even more triumphantly, took the pottery jar filled with blood, and left the dungeon.
Bang!
The rusty iron door slammed shut again, cutting off the last bit of light.
Princess Ji Wan walked out of the dungeon, wanting to go back to report, but a figure blocked the path in front of the tunnel not far away.
She frowned impatiently, who dared to block her way here?
But when she stepped forward and saw that identical face, "Ah!" she screamed and fell to the ground, and the pottery jar in her hand shattered.
"You... who are you..."
Sang Luo didn't waste words with her, using her mental power to control Princess Ji Wan. Her eyes instantly became dull, like a puppet being manipulated.
Sang Luo looked at the blood scattered on the ground, forming a small stream, and extracted Princess Ji Wan's memory, her face pale and cold.
The current timeline was half a year after she last left.
Yun Qi and Ye Wushuang had a great battle, and neither could gain the upper hand, both were seriously injured, but unfortunately, Yun Qi was a step behind, Yun Qi's mind and strategy were not as good as Ye Wushuang's.
Ye Wushuang set a trap, used Ji Wan's body to confuse Yun Qi, captured him alive, imprisoned him in the dungeon to torture and vent his anger, making his life worse than death, and used the blood of the spirit fox to repair his body every day.
She was still one step late...
Ji Wan also placed a Heart-Binding Curse Seal on Yun Qi, which could not be removed unless he died.
The reason he left that year... was this?
Sang Luo realized belatedly that the inside story she knew that year was too superficial, perhaps she was closer to the truth at this time.
Each time she traveled through time and space, Sang Luo's mastery of this talent power would be more proficient. This time, she did not inexplicably enter someone else's body again, and could freely control her own body.
To be on the safe side, she stored her body back in the time domain, and her soul controlled Ji Wan's body, turned around and returned to the dungeon again.
"Your Highness, why are you back again?" The guard at the dungeon door saw her returning and asked in confusion.
Sang Luo scolded coldly, "That lowly slave dared to offend this princess, after thinking about it, the anger in my heart has not been resolved, and I must vent my anger before I am willing to give up!"
Everyone knew about this princess's savage and cruel temperament, and they also heard the noise in the cell just now, no one dared to say more, and let her pass.
Sang Luo pushed open the cell door, and was severely stimulated by the scene in front of her. The little fox she carefully cared for was being treated and humiliated here like a slave. The tattered hay on the ground was covered with blood, new, old, black, red, exuding a humid and stinky smell.
The young man's eyes, nose, and mouth were bleeding...
Not good! He wants to commit suicide!
"Qi!"
I just came back from outside late at night, let me see if I can post another chapter before 12 o'clock today
