Chapter 726: Rage
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The doors and windows in the room were closed, and there was a darkness that even sunlight couldn’t brighten. His face was as white as jade, but lacked warmth. Instead, it was as cold and hard. Light and shadow intertwined and overlapped on his face. On his peerlessly bright face, his facial features were clear,deep, sharp and cold. His red lips seemed to be a red spider lily that bloomed in h.e.l.l. He had a demonic charm that was b.l.o.o.d.y and dangerous.
Yu Zongzheng forgot that he couldn’t make a sound. He subconsciously opened his mouth, wanting to escape.
“What is dividing the tendons and bones?” Yin Huaixi raised his leg and stepped on Yu Zongzhengs shoulder. He stepped on Yu Zongzheng, who was about to get up, and stepped on the ground again. “It controls the 18 joints in the entire body. It uses the cultivator’s understanding of the human body’s muscles and bones to quickly dismantle the enemy’s joints when facing the enemy. First, it dismantles their bones, causing them to lose their mobility. Then, it divides their tendons and makes the enemy suffer!”
He almost gritted his teeth as the words rolled out of his tongue. It was as if he licked, chewed and crushed his prey.
As soon as he finished speaking, Yin Huaixi’s hand was like lightning as he placed it on Yu Zongzhengs shoulder and pressed hard.
Yu Zongzhengs eyes widened. Due to the pain, his face instantly twisted. Strangely, his mouth opened wide, and his throat kept moving, but he did not make a sound.
“I’m angry for a beauty.” A layer of ice formed in Yin Huaixi’s dark eyes, but no one knew how intense and dangerous the undercurrent was under the ice.
How deeply these undercurrents collided. “Can you withstand this anger?!”
The room was silent. Only a bone-chilling crack could be heard from between the bones, surging with heart-wrenching despair.
After Yu Zongzhengs 18 joints were divided, his bones were adjusted with a special method over and over again.
Not long after, he seemed to have been fished out of the water. He was like a fish that had dried up after being placed under the sun. His face was pale as he lay on the ground, and his eyes were lifeless. He opened his mouth weakly and trembled like a pile of mud.
Yin Huaixi kicked him.
Yu Zongzheng was tortured until he was mentally unstable and did not react at all.
Yin Huaixi smiled faintly. “The Dragon Wrapp Hands is indeed a Daoist ultimate technique.”
He bent down and picked up Yu Zongzhengs collar, throwing him into a chair. He pinched his face and poured the tea into his mouth.
After drinking a cup of tea, Yu Zongzheng shuddered and sobered up from the pain. He looked at Yin Huaixi in horror, and a gurgling sound came from his throat. He frantically checked his hands and feet and realized that they were intact. If it weren’t for the lingering trace of pain between his bones, he would have suspected that everything he had experienced previously was just a nightmare.
“You’re awake.” Yin Huaixi took out a doc.u.ment and pushed it in front of Yu Zongzheng. “Sign the doc.u.ment obediently and I’ll let you off.”
Perhaps it was because the torture just now was too deeply rooted in his heart, but after Yu Zongzheng regained his senses, his mind was like a piece of sc.r.a.p iron. He couldn’t even think, and he instinctively obeyed Yin Huaixi’s words.
He quickly picked up the doc.u.ment. Without even looking at it, his hands trembled as he frantically took out his personal seal from the pouch at his waist and stamped the doc.u.ment.
Yin Huaixi took the doc.u.ment and blew on the seal that was not yet dry. “Today, the Yu family has a good daughter called Youyao, and her mother from the Xie family is virtuous and kind. She has inherited the family upbringing since she was a child and received the kindness of her parents. Her nature is filial, virtuous, pure and quiet. She is kind, honest and courteous. She has fulfilled her responsibilities as a direct descendant, remembered the merits of her ancestors, and maintained filial piety. I should have fulfilled my responsibilities as a father and given her the love between father and daughter when her mother left her during her death. My last words are to allow her to return to her mother’s family. I also feel that 1 owe a lot to my wife. Even if I am reluctant to let go, I am still willing to fulfill my mother’s last wish. I will also fulfill my duty as a husband and fulfill the family relationship between her and my mother-in-law. After she returns to her mother’s clan, she will fulfill her filial piety on behalf of her late mother, and will not disgrace the teachings of the Yu family.”
Only then did Yu Zongzhengs dull mind completely sober up. His eyes widened. “Zhou Linghuai, I’m your uncle and an elder. How dare you…”
Yin Huaixi sneered. “You can announce to the public that the eldest daughter,
Yao Yao, had fallen ill from worry because of Grandmother’s death. The Yu Residence is worried that she will stay in the Yu Residence for a long time and miss her too much. It’ll be harmful to her health, so they allowed her to stay in the Xie Residence for a while. She’ll continue to be a family member to comfort Grandmother and you hope that she can recover soon.”
For the time being, it was only right for her to use her illness to stay in the Xie Residence for a while. He would not let others speculate and damage her reputation because she had returned to her mother’s family.
When the capital was in chaos, it would no longer matter if she returned to the Yu Residence or not.
Even if she wanted to return to her mother’s clan, things had to be fair and square.
Yu Zongzhengs body went limp, and his vision darkened. “Zhou Linghuai, this is the Yu Residence. It’s not up to you to make the decision. Give me the doc.u.ment…
Yin Huaixi clicked his tongue. “How does it feel to have your tendons and bones split?!”
Yu Zongzheng looked as if someone was strangling him, and a look of horror appeared on his face. His dismantled bones had already recovered, but the pain seeping out of the cracks of his bones was a reminder of what terrifying things he had experienced previously.
The feeling of having his tendons and bones broken was so Dainful that he wanted to die.
It hurt the body and tortured the mind. If Zhou Linghuai didn’t know his limits, he would have completely collapsed.
Yin Huaixi said calmly, “Before Old Madam Yu pa.s.sed away, she left a letter explaining that you were having an affair with Madam Yang. Yu Jianjia was an adulterous child. After Madam Xie died, you and Yu Youyao were related by blood. You’re bound together for good or ill. I’m unwilling to use this letter to coerce you, but you have to be sensible, understand?”
Some relationships could not be cut off. Even if she returned to her mother’s clan, Yu Youyao would still have to take on the surname of the Yu Clan and still be a daughter of the Yu Clan.
He only needed to hold the chess piece in his hand and let Yu Zongzheng court death step by step.
Yu Zongzhengs pupils constricted. “What do you mean?”
“Stupid.” Yin Huaixi smiled mockingly. “l mean that I have something on you.
As long as 1 want to, I can ruin your reputation.”
Yu Zongzheng held his breath and suddenly remembered what the Matriarch had said on the day she pa.s.sed away. “Even if 1 die, I won’t let you off!” So this was it.
Yin Huaixi slowly stood up and tidied his clothes. He said casually, “The Xie family will step in to discuss the rest with you one by one.” His lips curled up slightly, and his red lips were terrifying. “In the future, you have to be more polite to the eldest daughter of the first wife. If she suffers, I will get back twice as much, no matter who made her suffer.’
Yu Zongzhengs body went limp, and the dull pain in his bones evoked the memories of the excruciating pain just now. He instinctively felt fear and started trembling…
Yin Huaixi turned around and left the house. Without waiting for the people from the Xie Residence to ask, he respectfully handed the doc.u.ment that Yu Zongzheng had signed to Old Master Xie. “Fortunately, I didn’t disappoint you..”
