Chapter 33 Money speaks -24
Xiao Ling'r felt the heavy weight of Bai Lung's words pressing down on her, the pressuring aura surrounding him made it hard to breathe properly.
The feeling was too indescribable, something profound yet cold.
She clenched her fists, trying to steady her trembling hands.
She felt a chill run down her spine as Bai Lung's grip tightened further, his eyes boring into hers with an unspoken command.
She knew there was no escape from his demand.
Dhup! Dup!
Her heart raced, while her sharp cold eyes glanced at Ling Fei.
"Very well, Young Lord," she uttered.
Her voice was barely above a whisper, as she tried to maintain a semblance of composure.
" if this is what you want, I will do as you ask, " She added with a composed tone.
At the same time, Ling Fei's eyes widened in horror and disbelief, he simply couldn't believe this, rather he didn't wished to believe it.
"Saintess, you can't! Please! Don't give in... There must be a way out," he grunts like a helpless money trapped in the woods unable to find the way out.
But Xiao Ling'r steeled herself, knowing she had no choice but to do as she was commanded.
She walked slowly towards Ling Fei, her heart heavy with the weight of what she was about to do, never once, she had thought such a day would come but at the end, it is what it is.
Ling Fei's pain-filled eyes met hers, it was a silent plea for mercy that she could not grant in the presence of Young Master Bai.
...
Bai Lung watched with a sinister smile, his presence was like a dark shadow over the scene. "Do it, Saintess. Prove your loyalty to the sect,"
Xiao Ling'r raised her hand, channeling her Qi, the energy crackling around her fingers, magical yet elegant.
She placed her palm against Ling Fei's chest, feeling his heartbeat beneath her touch.
Her eyes filled with unshed tears, but she forced herself to look away from his pleading gaze.
She had not once anticipated that she would do this to someone who once saved her life but she held no regret in doing it, it was all his fault, and he deserved it.
She even believed Young Master Bai was generous as he only wished to cripple Ling Fei and not kill him painfully.
"Forgive me but I gave you an opportunity," she whispered, and then she unleashed her power without mercy.
" Arghhh~ "
A surge of energy shot through Ling Fei, and he screamed in agony as his Dao Heart shattered. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Dao heart was vital for Soul cultivators, without it, you can't cultivate or store Qi.
With his Dao Heart ( spiritual heart ) shattered, Ling Fei is no worse than a mere mortal living his day to day life.
" Arghhhh~ " He screamed loudly.
The pain was unlike anything he had ever experienced.
It was a searing agony that tore through his very essence.
He collapsed to the ground, his body convulsing as the energy dissipated.
Xiao Ling'r withdrew her hand, her body trembling with the aftermath of the attack.
She had done it. She had crippled him, as Bai Lung had demanded.
Ling Fei lay on the ground, his eyes glazed with pain and despair.
His once vibrant spirit was now broken and his cultivation destroyed.
He looked up at Xiao Ling'r, his expression a mix of betrayal and sorrow but he didn't blame her, that right, he blamed it all on Bai Lung.
Bai Lung was the Devil who needed to be killed, as for Dao Heart, the pain was unbelievable but, he learned from his master that he could recover his Dao heart or at least walk in other paths such as Mind cultivation, sword cultivation, etc.
"Well done, Saintess," Bai Lung said, his voice dripping with satisfaction.
"You have proven your loyalty. I am truly proud of you, " Bai Lung uttered while he got closer to her, letting her face to face.
' Eh? ' Ling'r was a little confused hearing his words but nodded her head. For the first time, she had heard someone say they were proud of her, for the thing she had done.
There is nothing but the feeling of genuine in that praise.
And the praise also didn't feel to be fake compared to the praise she got from the sect's disciples who held ulterior motives.
Envoy was a high-grade man, he wouldn't want to curry favor with a mere saintess like her when her own father, the sect master was at his disposal.
There is nothing but the feeling of genuine in that praise.
"To be honest Saintess, I never expected you would actually attack him this ruthlessly, " Bai Lung said while he smiled mysteriously at her.
[ Ding! The Protagonst's Dao heart has been shattered, as a result of Host's scheme ]
[ Ding! The Host has plundered 200 of his luck value and has obtained 50,000 EXP ]
Those words were like a melody, ringing at the back of his head.
Truth be told, he used Saintess as a decoy, a test subject to see what will happen if she crippled him because he, himself, believed he would receive judgment from heaven for causing harm to chosen one.
As such, the best option would be to let someone do it instead of him,
By no means, is Bai Lung is a little girl, but the way he toys with 'Dolls' is truly far thought of.
And when he said, he never expected her to cripple Ling Fei, he really meant it.
Bai Lung could have never thought, a chosen one could be weakened this easily.
His sinister smile widens, as he is very close to slaughtering the Sacrificial lamb who is already entangled in his web without even realizing it.
Ling Fei has exactly 500 luck remaining at the moment, however, being a greedy shepherd, Bai Lung wants to wool every drop from the sacrificial lamb.
