Eighteen. Punishment

  Chapter 18: Punishment

  A gentle breeze blew through the slightly open window, and Liu Qingfeng turned over, drowsily opening his eyes. This was the most comfortable sleep he had in these days, smelling the faintly fragrant scent on the bed, he smiled contentedly.

  She looked up to see Geng Xiao You standing in front of the window, her clothes fluttering gently in the wind, like a saintly maiden who had just emerged from the dust. Her delicate beauty was like a lotus flower exposed to the morning sun, or a snow-white rose that had been washed clean by the dew.

  She turned around and met his infatuated gaze, smiling faintly. "Awake?" He had now shaved off his disheveled beard, and sufficient sleep had restored some of his former vigor.

  "Mmm!" He got down from the bed and walked slowly towards her. Gently, he lifted up her pale face as if it were a treasure. "Xier, let me take a good look at you." He wished he could gaze at her like this every day until their dying breath.

  She didn't say a word, just smiled lightly, letting his deep and passionate eyes gaze at her silently.

  Almost a century later, he gently held her in his arms. "Xiang'er, it's really great that you're back in my arms again." He no longer had to search for her in his midnight dreams. That kind of pain he never wanted to experience again in this lifetime.

  She leaned on his shoulder and whispered softly, "Qingfeng, don't treat yourself like this again in the future, okay?"

  It felt great to have her concern, he smiled and nodded. "Good! I promise you." He hugged her, as if he had the whole world, his heart was full of happy feelings.

  "Knock knock knock", the rhythmic knocking at the door interrupted the warm atmosphere between the two.

  Pushing open the door, Zun walked in with a sulky expression, looking at her with a pitiful gaze. "You, I'm so bored, won't you play with me?"

  He's been locked up for too long, all day and night he only knows how to play. She asked weakly: "Play what?" Thinking of his behavior these past few days, she couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

  This guy is a freak, playing with dogs and plucking their fur until not a single hair remains. Playing with cars, in the end only leaving behind a few tires... The entire 'Mystic Shadow' was almost completely played through by him, yet he still had an arrogant expression, looking down on those who blamed him. "Insignificant humans, it's their good fortune that I play with these things." The anger of the people in the 'Mystic Shadow' nearly boiled over, and they all went to complain to her.

  The clear wind smiled as he looked at her helpless expression, and he raised his head to size up the majestic figure with an air of mystery, green hair and eyes. "Xī ěr, who is he?"

  With a disdainful look on his face, he sneered at him. "A puny human like you is worthy of knowing my name?"

  Here is the translation:

  She came again, and she helplessly rolled her eyes. Right, since she couldn't take revenge on Zhou Jun for the time being, why not find Lin Qiong mother and daughter first? "Zun, are you eager to play?"

  Her eyes sparkled brightly, and she nodded enthusiastically.

  "Then you come over, and tonight we'll..."

  On a moonless night, there is always an eerie feeling. The wind blows through the deserted streets, making a "whooshing" sound.

  Geng Xiao's mouth corner flowed with bright red blood, step by step slowly walking towards Lin Qiang, "Return my life to me, return my life to me..." Her hands tightly grasped her neck, staring at her ferociously.

  "No! No! Ahhh!" Lin Qiong waved her hands wildly, crying out as she woke up from the dream. Looking around at the familiar surroundings, wiping away the sweat on her forehead, and gently patting her chest. "It was just a dream, I'm so scared to death!"

  She lifted the quilt, intending to get out of bed and pour herself a glass of water to calm down. Suddenly, there were footsteps outside the door, "da da da..." It was the middle of the night, which idle servant was wandering around in the corridor after eating their fill? She must severely scold her, also to vent the anger from the nightmare she just had.

  She angrily opened the door, only to see a figure in white standing at her doorstep with disheveled hair. She was taken aback for a moment before fiercely scolding the figure: "You dead girl, what are you doing standing here in the middle of the night? Are you itchy and looking for a fight?"

  Bai Ying lifted her head, revealing a pale face, with fresh red blood still flowing from the corner of her mouth. "Ah!" Lin Qiong let out a sharp cry and quickly rushed into the room, slamming the door shut behind her. Huddled in the quilt, she was shaking violently all over, it's just a dream, must be a dream. She pinched herself hard, crying out in pain.

  The quilt was lifted, and a bleak and gloomy voice came from beside her ear. "Second daughter... I died so miserably!"

  Lin Qiong tightly hugged the pillow, burying her head deep within it. Her whole body shook like fallen leaves in the wind. She cried out loudly, "Don't! Don't! Please spare me, Xier... Erniang was wrong."

  "Wrong? Geng Xiao's eyes curved into a sarcastic arc. "Shut up! What qualifications do you have to let me spare you?" No roar, no anger, only icy coldness mixed with absolute iron-hard coldness."

  Lin Qiong only felt a chill wind blowing from behind, she trembled and desperately knocked her head in her direction. "Xier... spare... Erniang."

  Suddenly, Lin Qiang felt her body being lifted up like a person, floating in mid-air. "Ah!" She closed her eyes and screamed wildly. Her tightly closed eyes were swept over by something, and they automatically opened wide, unable to close again.

  Her whole body was as if it had been nailed in mid-air, unable to move. Watching the slow approach of Geng Xiao You's pale face and sharp teeth. Afraid, she lost consciousness. When she woke up again, her eyes no longer had their usual charm, only a foolish look. She smiled foolishly, muttering: "Little wooden fish, knock knock. Brother carrying sister running... Little wooden fish, knock knock. Brother carrying sister running. Haha... Ran away." With disheveled hair, she ran out the door.

  He appeared in front of her, his green eyes shining with excitement, happily bouncing up and down as he grabbed her hand. "Yu! This is so much fun! What shall we play next time?" His eyes sparkled with eager anticipation.

  Lan Ruotong's eyes flashed with a cold light. "Sir! Let's go."

  With a wave of his hand, the seal was lifted and the room returned to its original state, as if nothing had happened.

  Lan Ruotong walked vaguely towards the school gate, looking around. It was strange that no driver came to pick her up today? She wanted to wait, but she felt hot all over and almost burned up, so she desperately pulled at her collar, hoping to relieve the heat a bit. She slowly walked along the shaded path...

  A lecherous rascal, with a lustful gaze, stared at the blue-clothed girl across the street. He almost saw her every day, and she always had an air of purity and inviolability about her. Today, it just so happened that she was alone. His bean-like eyes gleamed with desire as he turned around, heh heh...it's as if heaven is helping me.

  He rushed over quickly, blocking her way. "Little beauty, come and have some fun with brother!" Looking at her now, with a red face and biting her lip, it really made him itch. He hated that he couldn't pounce on her right now.

  She tried her best to maintain a clear mind, and gave him a disdainful stare. She walked around him and ran forward in a staggering manner.

  The rascal chased after her, hugged her and dragged her into the small woods behind. Hehe... Grandpa's in luck today.

  "Go away!" She struggled desperately and bit his shoulder hard.

  "Ah!" The ruffian let out a painful cry, using force to slam her to the ground. "You stinky girl, you don't know how to show respect, daring to bite me." He fiercely slapped her with his palm, and in an instant, her face quickly swelled up, with a thread of blood flowing from the corner of her mouth. Dragging her weak and powerless body towards the small woods behind.

  He dragged her into a small woods and slapped her hard on the face, "You stinky bitch, it's your good fortune that I've taken a liking to you. Pfft!"

  She glared at him fiercely, but her whole body was still burning with heat, and she moaned softly as she pulled her collar tightly.

  The rascal bared his big yellow teeth, and with a silver smile, he let out a "hiss". "As expected, you shameless stinky girls, getting beaten up and still so excited, haha... I won't hold back now." He pounced on her, frantically slapping her face and violently rubbing against her body.

  She kept twisting on the ground, with tears of humiliation streaming from her eyes, but her body was so excited.

  Her green eyes were full of curiosity, staring intently at the two people entwined in the woods. The woman was disgusting, getting excited from being abused like that, and he had only used a little bit of love powder on her.

  "This guy must have given Lan Ruotong a double dose, otherwise she wouldn't be so infatuated." "Sir, how much love powder did you use?" she asked casually.

  "It's just three more scoops, I originally wanted to add a bit more, but I was afraid it would be too thick and get discovered." Zun blinked her green eyes and said with a regretful expression.

  Three spoons? Six times? Lan Ruotong estimated that even if he didn't die, it would be almost the same.

  The people in the crowd didn't notice anyone else around them at all, and Lan Ruotong's face was filled with pleasure as she shouted.

  "Hehe... I'm telling you, sister, this weather outside is chilling." A faint, cold laugh echoed in Lan Ruo Tong's ear from Geng Xiao.

  The rascal walked away from her with a satisfied expression on his face. It was really damn refreshing, he tidied up his disheveled clothes and turned to leave.

  Geng Xiao gave a subtle signal to Zun, who then ignited a wisp of blue flame in his hand and threw it at the stutterer. Before he could even let out a hum, the stutterer was transformed into a wisp of smoke that vanished into thin air.

  Lan Ruotong was still unsatisfied, rubbing against him, the fire in her body burning non-stop. "Don't go... I want more..." Now she was thinking of nothing but how to quench the flames in her body, completely disregarding propriety and shame.

  She gazed coldly at Lan Ruotong who was still twisting on the ground. "Sir, let her sober up for now."

  Only to see the respected hand pointing, Lan Ruotong suddenly came back to her senses. She grabbed a tattered piece of clothing beside her, and the joyful red flush on her face had not yet faded away. In an instant, she saw Geng Xiao You. "You...you...are you human or ghost?" She retreated backward with a terrified expression on her face.

  Geng Xiao's eyes curved into a cold smile as he slowly walked towards her. "Do you think I'm human or a ghost?"

  "No...don't...come over..." She trembled and desperately backed away.

  She gazed coldly at Blue Ruo Tong in front of her, "Do you know what it means to be afraid? If only you had known today, why bother with the past?" If they hadn't been so ruthless as to feed her poison and throw her into the lake back then. Perhaps today's her would still be that innocent and naive Blue Ruo Xian. But Blue Ruo Xian was already dead, killed by their hands. The one standing here now is Geng Xiao You.

  Lan Ruotong cowered there, tears streaming down her face. "Xier, I was wrong. Please forgive me?"

  Geng Xiao's face was icy cold with a smile, his eyes filled with cold and hard chill, "Wrong? One wrong sentence can cancel out all your sins? And Lan Ruoxue is already dead, died in your hands."

  "Dead? Then you're a ghost!" She hugged herself tightly and didn't dare to look up at her, trembling like a swing in the wind.

  Zun looked at her with disdain, this woman was the most disgusting human he had ever seen since he came out of his cave. "You, why not throw her into the Seventh Degree Space? That's a paradise for men and a hell for women. The women there live like pigs and dogs, I think that's where she belongs."

  Geng Xiao Yu hooked her lips into a smile, "What are you waiting for?" Then she slowly walked towards Lan Ruo Tong, coldly saying: "Dear sister, you'd better enjoy yourself there!"

  Only a wave of his hands was seen, and only a white light flashed. A large green door slowly opened. Two black-clad messengers stood at the door and saluted "Master!"

  He exuded an aura of a king, pointing at Lan Ruotong. He coldly ordered, "Take her away." This woman made him feel nauseous just by looking at her for one more second.

  Space made a wave of both hands, only to see blue if the hum didn't even come in time, it disappeared before one's eyes. The space door closed immediately, and the light disappeared instantly.

  Her green eyes sparkled with light, holding onto Geng Xiao You's hand. "You! Did I do well?" Blinking her eyes like a puppy asking for praise.

  She smiled faintly and patted his head gently. "Zun, not bad! Let's go back." Zhou Xuan will be next soon.

  With a joyful smile on his face, he trotted along behind her, disappearing into the small woods.
