208: You Dare To Touch My Face!
🕑 Added 2025-03-20 15:51:35 +0000 UTC"Is this the lad you talked about?" Gu Zhu glanced at the closed-eyed Yun Wuji and asked.
He had heard about this man from Qianye Ying'er. It was amusing to see his Young Miss so angry and cursing at a man for the first time. To think there was a man who could bear to make the Lady Goddess angry, what an interesting fellow.
"Yo!" Yun Wuji's closed eyes suddenly opened. He wanted to wave his hands, but unfortunately, he was completely immobilized, so he could only smile and greet him. His attitude was carefree and nonchalant as if he weren't facing his enemies but greeting his neighbors.
"Hahaha, what an interesting lad," Gu Zhu chuckled and shook his head.
"Hmph! I'll see if you can keep that smug face later," Qianye Ying'er said with a cold smile. She walked toward one of the palace rooms, and Yun Wuji's body was forcibly dragged behind her, following her every step. Without turning back, she spoke to Gu Zhu, "Uncle Gu, if Father asks about me, tell him I'm busy."
"Yes, Young Miss," Gu Zhu replied, bowing his head as he watched her figure disappear from view.
..
"Hey, are you really going to torture me?" The place she brought him to was vast and white, empty except for the walls lined with numerous creepy-looking tools. Some of them Yun Wuji recognized, while others were completely foreign to him. Yet, even the ones he didn't recognize, he could still guess their purpose.
They were all torture devices.
"What do you think?" Qianye Ying'er said casually, waving her hand. A sharp tool flew toward her.
"It seems you're still holding a grudge against me. But if you think these methods will make me talk, you're very wrong." Despite being completely helpless, Yun Wuji showed no signs of panic or fear. He remained completely calm.
He smiled and added, "In fact, if you want, we could make a deal. I can be of help in many ways. Don't you think it's wasteful and meaningless to take your anger out on me just because of a few words I said?"
"Making a deal with you... Are you trying to reason with me?" Qianye Ying'er toyed with the tool in her palm, smiling. "Don't you know that only villains and women can't be reasoned with? Unfortunately for you, I'm both a woman and a villain."
She didn't care about his so-called deal. Once she was done with him, he would speak on his own. Even if he resisted the torture, she still had the Brahma Soul Death-Wishing Mark.
Ever since this man had fallen into her hands, his fate had been sealed. There was no way for him to escape; he could only spill his secrets and pay for his crimes.
"Is that so? Well, go ahead... See you later." To her surprise, Yun Wuji didn't show any disappointment. He gave her one last smile before closing his eyes.
He had completely cut off his connection with his body. No matter what happened to him, he would feel nothing.
"Sealing your senses? How naive," Qianye Ying'er snickered coldly.
Normally, even if a person cut off his senses from the world, there were many ways to bring back his consciousness. The simplest method was to shock his soul, something the Brahma Monarch God Realm were very skilled at.
However, she was bound to be disappointed.
A few days later...
"WTF?!" Qianye Ying'er suddenly threw the bloodied tool in her hand and cursed. The tool hit the ground, bouncing a few times before landing in front of a woman.
The woman had a graceful and delicate figure. She bent down to pick up the tool, and as she did, her voluminous mounds pressed tightly against her knees, causing her ample chest to deform. After picking up the tool, she stood up and spoke, "Lady, please calm your anger."
She was Yue Ying, one of Qianye Ying'er's servants.
"This guy's body is so strange. How could he be so unresponsive?! There's no soul fluctuation at all, it's as if he's dead! If his heart weren't still beating, I would've thought he was dead," Qianye Ying'er said, taking a step and walking around Yun Wuji while scrutinizing him with her cold eyes.
His clothes were tattered and torn, with gruesome wounds scattered across his body, even on his face. The once-white floor was now stained with red. One could only imagine the extent of the torture this body had endured.
Yue Ying didn't know how to respond. She and the other servants had been in charge of torturing this man for the past few days, yet they hadn't even managed to elicit a single frown from this strange man!
At that moment, Yun Wuji's eyes twitched, and he opened them. He glanced around and, as if feeling the pain from his body, winced.
During the time he had cut off his connection with this body, he had been enjoying his bonding time with Mu Xuanyin and tasting new dishes with Mu Binyun. Now that he had reconnected his senses to his body, he began to feel the pain from his injuries.
'You dare touch my face... my fucking handsome face! Do you know how many women would die of sadness if they knew that my unmatchably perfect, handsome face was ruined by a man-hater like you?! Just you wait! I'll make you 'pay' the price later!'
Although Yun Wuji was furious when he saw the state of his body, especially his face, he kept a calm expression on the outside. After all, he couldn't show that he was affected by their torture. He looked at Yue Ying and smirked, "Hello, beauty. Are you new here? Want me to show you around?"
"???" Question marks appeared above Yue Ying's head. What was this guy talking about?
Wait, was he flirting with her? She had never seen a man still in the mood for such things in a situation like this. But for some reason, she found it funny and interesting. Maybe it was because she had spent her entire life following Qianye Ying'er, always overshadowed by her. No man had ever paid attention to her, despite her beauty.
After all, compared to the unforgettable Lady Goddess, she seemed very ordinary.
Looking at his expression, veins popped on Qianye Ying'er's temples. She smiled grimly and spoke, "You think you're that good?"
"Of course, I don't think I'm good, I'm unparalleled. Please, don't insult me like that. It hurts both my feelings and my pride." Yun Wuji looked away from the big-breasted woman and turned his attention to Qianye Ying'er with a smile. Then, as if he had thought of something, he added, "After wasting so much time on meaningless torture, what are you going to do next? Hmm, let me guess... From your expression, I can tell you're planning to use the Brahma Soul Death-Wishing Mark."
"Am I right?"
His confident look made Qianye Ying'er feel a vague sense of unease. She was indeed planning to use the Brahma Soul Death-Wishing Mark. To use it, she would need to plant it with her soul's origin, which would expand a small part of her soul. However, it was worth the price if she could bring this man to his knees.
Brahma Soul Death-Wishing Mark is a curse that'll make you marvel over the wonder that is death. It makes you want death more than anything else in your life. The pain it brings is something that transcends the soul. In short, it isn't something that can be resisted with one's will at all. Even a realm king or a king realm's god emperor would've knelt on their knees and begged for mercy or death!
Without waiting for her answer, Yun Wuji smiled mockingly. "But I advise you not to make a mistake. You'll only suffer. A trash curse like that won't work on me at all."
"..." Yue Ying's eyes widened at his audacity. He actually had the nerve to speak like this to her Lady and even called the infamous Brahma Soul Death-Wishing Mark a trash curse!
"Trash curse? Hahaha, what a joke!" Qianye Ying'er didn't get angry at his words. Instead, she laughed, her laugh both beautiful and mesmerizing. Even Yun Wuji had to admit that if he didn't have perfect control over his emotions, he might have been fascinated by her.
She stretched out her hand and grabbed Yun Wuji's throat tightly, lifting him off the ground.
The golden light in Qianye Ying'er's eyes flashed. Following that, the hand gripping Yun Wuji's throat shone with a dense golden light. That dense golden light quickly left her hand and transferred itself into Yun Wuji's body.
Immediately, threads of thin golden lines shot out in all directions from Yun Wuji's nape. Within a few breaths, they spread across his entire body, covering him with thousands of delicate golden markings. The markings glowed and flashed, visible even through his clothes. Once the golden markings had covered every corner of his body, the golden light disappeared without a trace.
With the curse successfully cast, Qianye Ying'er's lips curled into a smile. She was eager to see if this hateful man could still keep that annoying smile on his face. However, just as the golden light faded, an intense, pure white light suddenly flared from Yun Wuji's entire body!
The light was so intense that it submerged the entire white space in a blinding, pure white glow. The golden markings on Yun Wuji's body reappeared, but to the astonishment of both Qianye Ying'er and Yue Ying, the markings were rapidly burned away by the white light.
"Ah!"
When the Brahma Soul Death-Wishing Mark was completely erased, Qianye Ying'er suddenly let out a painful cry from the backlash!
