Chapter 182: Zhou Tong Doesn’t Cry Like You!
Xuanhuang Mountain, Jade Purity Sect.
The crowd watched as Tang Qi left, feeling a flicker of anticipation.
Perhaps he really could kill Zhou Tong and bring great fortune to the sect.
Just then…
With a loud bang, Mo Liushu erupted with all her strength and shot into the sky.
She actually wanted to escape!
“Rebellious disciple! Where do you think you’re going?”
As Mo Liushu’s Master, Wu Zhan had long been prepared. He stepped forward and blocked her way, sending a shadow of light into Mo Liushu’s body.
“Ah… my cultivation!”
Mo Liushu’s face changed drastically, like a bird with broken wings falling from the sky, crashing heavily to the ground.
Her power was completely sealed!
“Master… please, let me go!”
“Delusional! You must take responsibility for your actions!”
Wu Zhan said coldly, “Someone, take her to the dungeon!”
With those words, no one dared to step forward, afraid of being caught in the backlash of heavenly retribution.
“Let me do it.”
Xia Hongxiu volunteered, her face adorned with a sweet smile.
“Girl, you must not play tricks. If you let her go, you won’t be able to bear the consequences.”
Wu Zhan warned.
“Don’t worry, I swear to the Heavenly Dao that I will not let Master go.”
“Very well, I believe you now!”
“Thank you, Sect Master.”
Xia Hongxiu, eager to help, took the defenseless Mo Liushu away from the crowd’s sight.
“You’re so good to me, girl. To help me escape, you’re even willing to swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao!”
Halfway there, Mo Liushu said, touched.
“Hehe…”
Xia Hongxiu couldn’t hold back her strange smile.
“Master, you misunderstood.”
Hearing this, Mo Liushu’s eyes widened, “Are you really going to put me in the dungeon?”
“Otherwise? I can’t defy the Sect Master!”
“You…”
Mo Liushu trembled, pointing at Xia Hongxiu, speechless.
“Master, please understand my predicament; I have no choice.”
Accompanied by the heavy sound of the door opening, the dungeon revealed itself—dimly lit and filled with countless shackles hanging from the ceiling, stained with blood.
“Master, I have to hang you up!”
With a few clicks, Mo Liushu’s hands were locked in shackles, and her body could only barely touch the ground with her toes.
Sealed of her power, she quickly exhausted herself, and the thin marks appeared on her delicate wrists.
“Is it really necessary to go this far? I am the Sect Master’s direct disciple, the future Sect Master. Wuwuwu…”
Mo Liushu cried, her noble identity now reduced to that of a prisoner, forced to maintain this humiliating posture—this had crossed her bottom line!
“You bad people! If it were Zhou Tong…”
“If it were Zhou Tong, he wouldn’t treat you this way!”
Xia Hongxiu interrupted her coldly, “It’s a pity you drove him away. He would have been willing to give you his heart. Why did you have to treat him like that!”
With those words, Mo Liushu fell silent, tears streaming down her face.
“Stop crying! Zhou Tong doesn’t cry as much as you…”
As she spoke, Xia Hongxiu slowly retreated from the dungeon. Before completely leaving, she paused.
“Oh, one more thing…”
Xia Hongxiu turned back, “The chain that holds you up has also bound Zhou Tong many times before, and every time, it was at your command to punish him. He never cried even once…”
“Ahhh!!!!”
Hearing this, Mo Liushu’s psychological defenses shattered, and she suddenly screamed.
Her voice was filled with regret, guilt, and an indescribable emotion.
“Hahaha…”
Once outside the dungeon, Xia Hongxiu couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
Her aura surged sharply, breaking through the Heaven-Cutting Realm in the blink of an eye.
“It came without effort; I can finally absorb her fortune. This feeling is so wonderful, it’s addictive!”
In the dark dungeon, damp and gloomy, aside from the sounds of insects crawling, only Mo Liushu’s sobs and her increasingly heavy breathing could be heard.
“It’s so dark… so tired… so painful… Was Tong’er like this before?”
“No… he must have suffered more than I am!”
Mo Liushu shuddered.
“I’m so scared… can someone save me? I don’t want to stay in this darkness anymore.”
Unconsciously, distant memories began to surface, hazy yet profound.
She was afraid of the dark!
This habit, she could not recall when it began, only remembering that she had once fallen into endless darkness.
That feeling was helpless and sorrowful, making her wish for self-termination.
At that time, she was in despair when suddenly a glowing figure came to her rescue, like a descending deity!
“Who was that…?”
Mo Liushu shook her head, having forgotten the figure’s appearance, but whenever she thought back, her heart was still filled with sweetness.
“Buzz…”
Suddenly, her mind shook, followed by a violent pain.
“Ahhh…”
She screamed as her long, beautiful legs flailed in the air, unable to find a foothold, looking even more tragic.
This was not the punishment of the five punishments of hell but rather a new calamity descending upon her.
She was naturally prone to misfortune, and without Zhou Tong to suppress it, this was only to be expected.
This calamity was… the calamity of being abandoned and lonely!
Just then, a faint light suddenly illuminated the dungeon, drawing Mo Liushu’s gaze.
Perhaps it was an illusion—just focusing on that light seemed to heal her, and the pain lessened significantly.
“That is…”
She stared intently, and upon seeing it clearly, her heart trembled.
That glowing thing was clearly her name, composed of blood-red characters, filled with will and obsession!
“Did my poor Tong’er write this by hand?”
Tears welled in her eyes, and she could hardly speak.
She watched as those blood letters floated, even detaching from the wall, merging into her body.
“So warm…”
Mo Liushu’s gaze shifted, and the intense pain in her mind dissipated. At the same time, the shackles sealing her power began to show signs of loosening!
These blood letters were like the wooden ball Zhou Tong had gifted her, containing the power to suppress disasters, helping her shield against calamity!
…
On the road to the wild mountain secret realm, Tang Qi pushed his speed to the limit, his hand gripping Chen Ling’er’s throat as he rushed forward.
“Let go of me, you bastard!”
Chen Ling’er bit his arm, trying to break free.
“You shameless woman!”
With a loud crash, Chen Ling’er was thrown to the ground, the breath knocked out of her as she could not help but spit out blood!
“I was planning to deal with you later, but since you’re so ungrateful, don’t blame me for dealing with you right here!”
As he spoke, he unbuttoned his shirt, revealing his muscular torso.
Ever since he became a real man, he had been unable to control his fiery emotions.
“What… what do you want?”
Chen Ling’er’s expression turned terrified, “If you dare to touch me, do you believe I will expose your true identity to the world?”
“Hahaha… you are insignificant! Who would the people of Jade Purity Sect believe, you or me?”
After hearing this, Chen Ling’er despaired completely.
However, just then, a voice suddenly resonated.
“Junior brother, junior sister, what are you doing?”
