Chapter 370 A Glimpse at the Past 4
"But really… your father should not have come home late today…" The scenery that Professor Frances was watching has continued to play out, as the past Great TimeMaster did not end her talk with her unborn child. "Sigh… I am getting worried by your father"s actions these past days. He"s not telling it to me, but I can see that there"s something that was troubling him greatly. Sigh… I just hope that whatever his problem was, it will not be extremely bad."
"Shwee shwee shwee…"
The past Great TimeMaster then stroked her bulging stomach again as she tried to soften the worried expression on her face.
As time went on in the scene, the past Great TimeMaster did nothing but talk with the baby on her stomach. She seemed to be contented on doing this, that she did not notice the sudden appearance of three people behind her.
"So this is the b***h that the brat spends his time on. How lowly of him." One of the intruders said as he stared at the back of the past Great TimeMaster. "If that brat"s mother was here, she will surely be livid…"
The way that this intruder spoke was not subtle at all, which led to the past Great TimeMaster hearing everything that he said.
"!!!"
The past Great TimeMaster leapt up from her seat as she jumped away from the intruders.
She looked at the three "uninvited guests", who were now standing perfectly still inside her house.
"Who the h.e.l.l are you people?" The past Great TimeMaster asked as she stared at the three warily.
From the worried expression that can be seen on her face, it was easy to a.s.sume that the past Great TimeMaster was rattled by the sudden appearance of these three people.
After all, they managed to come in her house without getting detected, and it was only when one of the intruders talked that she managed to detect them.
"You"re asking us about our ident.i.ty? You have no right to ask that, foreigner!" The intruder who talked earlier said as he gave the past Great TimeMaster a murderous look. His face which was as elegant as a beauty was warped by this murderous look, and his white robes were stained with blood, making him look like a berserk killer.
"Foreigner?" With her advanced sensors, Professor Frances could see that the past Great TimeMaster"s heartbeat was beyond its maximum capacity. Not only that, but her blood pressure was high, and her skin was suddenly filled with cold sweat. Piece all these vitals together, and it is quite obvious to see that the past Great TimeMaster is panicking greatly right now.
"Huh. Don"t you dare use that tone on us. We already know about your secret, so don"t even try denying it." Said the second person among the intruders, who was a burly man with a large stick on his hand. "If you continue denying, you will be in a world of pain."
"Woman, don"t even think of running away. From what I can sense, your powers must be extremely weak now, right.?" The last and third person among the intruders said as he adjusted the white mask on his face. Due to the mask, his facial expressions could not be see, but it was obvious that he gloating right now.
"You three…" The past Great TimeMaster grimaced as she seemed to have realized the situation that she was in. "Are you here to kill me? Hmph, just you try. My husband will not let you off!"
"You b***h!" Out of nowhere, the murderous looking intruder swooped in towards the past Great TimeMaster, clutching her throat in a vise-like grip. "You have no right to call that brat your husband."
"Kaaak kaak kaaak…" The past Great TimeMaster started to let out choking sounds as her face turned blue. She flailed her helpless body around as she tried to break herself free from the murderous intruder.
This was of course futile, as the murderous intruder only tightened his grip on the past Great TimeMaster.
"We had our suspicions before, but I did not believe that Jian Chen will be harboring a foreigner, much less marry her!" The murderous intruder said as he kept his tight grip on the past Great TimeMaster. "But after a lengthy investigation… the sect has confirmed that Jian Chen has indeed sinned against the sect. And to make it worse, he actually had a child with that foreigner!"
"Crack crack!"
Cracking sounds could be heard as the murderous intruder slowly tightened his grip on the past Great TimeMaster. If nothing was done here, the murderous intruder crus.h.i.+ng her neck will be a foregone conclusion.
"Old Man Yuan, you know that we can"t kill this foreigner right now!" The bulky intruder said as he tapped the murderous intruder"s shoulder. "We still have to use her for our experiments! We cannot kill her now…"
"Tsk, you"re a lucky one, b***h!" Old Man Yuan said as he let go of the past Great TimeMaster. He then spat at her as he kicked her legs.
"Ah!"
"If it were before, the Celestial Sect would have already killed you. But because of Jian Chen"s sacrifice for the sect, the Celestial Sect has decided to spare you. So be happy that you will still get to live out your days!"
"S-s-sacrifice? W-what are you talking about?" Instead of complaining about the harsh treatment that was just given to her, the past Great TimeMaster was instead rendered worried by the latest words that Old Man Yuan just said. "What do you mean about Jian Chen sacrificing himself?"
"I am sorry to say it, but your "husband" has died fighting an escaped criminal." Old Man Yuan said, although there was no hint of apology in his eyes. Instead, there was only a wide sneer on his face, which he was showing proudly to the past Great TimeMaster. "It was really a disappointment… Your husband was supposed to be next Sect Leader of the Celestial Sect, but he was killed in his latest mission. Tsk, tsk, tsk, all the resources that the sect has poured on him is now wasted. Sigh… it"s really a waste…"
"No!!! You"re lying!" The past Great TimeMaster shrilly shouted as she pointed her finger at Old Man Yuan. She seemed to ignore the pain in her throat and legs as she only focused her glare at him. "My husband is a powerful Immortal! There"s no way that he can just die! You"re all lying to me!"
"Shut up b**ch." Old Man Yuan muttered as he kicked the past Great TimeMaster on her other leg. "You don"t get to interrupt me when I am having my good speech."
"Agh!"
"If I said that your "husband" was dead, then he is dead." Old Man Yuan said with a s.a.d.i.s.tic gleam on his eyes. "Why don"t you just accept that as the truth and move on? Oh right, you cannot move on anyway, as you will be staying with us from now on. As our lab rat of course."
"No!!!"
"F**king b***h. This is why I hate marriage. You only get to quarrel with chatterboxes like this." Old Man Yuan grumbled as he picked his nose.
"Oi Old Man Yuan, I am a happily married person. Don"t you try to make it look bad." The burly intruder said as he shook his head. "If you have problem with marriage, then go sulk about it by yourself only!"
"Tsk, why do I have to live this s***y life! F**k!" Old Man Yuan then kicked the past Great TimeMaster once more, this time connecting with her right arm. "First, my only disciple f***ked a foreigner, and now my friends mock me for my celibacy? F**k you all!"
"Old Man Yuan, why don"t you stop kicking the foreigner now. What if she dies?" The bury intruder said as he hastily pulled Old Man Yuan away from the past Great TimeMaster. "We need her alive and well!"
"F**k this! I still haven"t vented all my rage on this b**ch!" Old Man Yuan shouted as he glared at the past Great TimeMaster. "If it were not for her existence, Jian Chen should have been the strongest cultivator in this world already! It"s all her fault that his talent has regressed! Do you really think I will be happy with all things that this b**ch did? h.e.l.l no! So Amon, let go of me now… Don"t you want to beat up this woman too? After all, she seduced your brother!"
"I am angry at her of course, but right now, we need to follow the orders of the Sect Leader!" The burly intruder, whose name was Amon, replied as he clasped both of his hands in a pleading motion. "You wouldn"t want to offend him, right?"
"Oh f**king h.e.l.l." Old Man Yuan looked to be extremely unwilling as he grabbed the past Great TimeMaster, who seemed to be in a state of shock right now. "You have no choice but to come with us, foreigner. After all, you need to repay a lot of debt to the Celestial Sect."
"No. I won"t go with you."
"What did say b**ch?"
"I said I won"t go with you!" The past Great TimeMaster said as she snarled at Old Man Yuan. "You three must be Jian Chen"s enemies, and you"re only disguising as his elders! Everything that you said just now were all lies! My husband did not die, and you are only lying to me to make me come with you!"
"...Getting desperate now, aren"t we?" Surprisingly, Old Man Yuan seemed to have lost his rage as he stared coolly at the past Great TimeMaster . "So even now, you still do not believe that your husband is dead. I wonder what would happen… if I show you a proof of his death?"
"No. No. No. You"re still lying…"
"You"re still at denial? Sigh… this is the second reason why I hate marriage. You just get to be stuck with unbelieving b**hes!" Old Man Yuan then turned his head as he faced the masked intruder. "Pretty Boy Floy, show her the head."
"Why are you calling me Pretty Boy Floy? That"s not my name…" Pretty Boy Floy grumbled as he waved his hands, in a motion that showed that he was extracting an object from his Storage Treasure.
"Squelch."
A wet, squishy sound echoed inside the house, as a rounded object landed on Pretty Boy Floy"s hands.
He then rapidly showed this object to the past Great TimeMaster, who looked at it with trepidation.
"…"
All the color seemed to have been drained from the past Great TimeMaster"s face as she saw the appearance of the rounded object. Her body started to collapse as tears began to pool in her eyes. There was no sound that came out of her mouth, as she seemed to be in no state to even speak properly.
"Ugh, can we make this fast? I don"t want holding this thing for long. The blood is getting sticky already…" Pretty Boy Floy complained as his body shuddered in disgust. "Why are you even making me hold a severed head? Seriously, you two are just demented!"
"Don"t say that to me. I am just following orders." Amon replied as he looked away from Jian Chen"s severed head. "If you want to blame someone, blame Old Man Yuan."
"The f**k? Why are you acting like p****es there? The foreigner wanted proof that Jian Chen was dead, so we just showed her his severed head! There"s nothing wrong with that!" Old Man Yuan exclaimed as he crossed his arms. "Oi Amon, do something about the foreigner, she seems to be in a frozen in shock now."
The Old Man Yuan was indeed right.
The past Great TimeMaster was frozen like an unmoving robot, as her glazed eyes were only focused on the severed head of Jian Chen. There were no emotions on her face, as only a blank expression could be seen on it.
Her breathing seemed to stand still, and the only sign that showed that she was alive was her slow, agonized heartbeat.
"Poor woman. She"s just waiting for her husband to come home, and what came back to her was his severed head. If this was a play, it will surely be a great hit." Old Man Yuan said in a mocking tone. "Speaking of plays, I still haven"t watched the newest play. What do you think Amon? Can you take this old man to watch tha-"
"NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!"
"And now she shouts. That means that she"s still alive. That"s f**king good!" Old Man Yuan muttered as he approached the past Great TimeMaster, who was now screaming with blood coming out of her mouth. "Okay, time for you to sleep now. We still have a lot to talk about with you later, b***h~"
