I didn’t mean to! Please spare my life!” Feralda, terrified, fell to her knees, her voluptuous body trembling with fear, her voice cracking with tears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knew these objects weren’t priceless, but such a lapse before Li Chen would surely bring punishment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Li Chen did not immediately rage; instead, he bent down, gently lifted her up, his warm fingers carefully checking if any shards had cut her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This unexpected tenderness warmed her heart, as if a surge of heat flowed through her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially after losing her husband, this was the first time Feralda had felt such warmth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After confirming she was unharmed, Li Chen released her, his tone laced with amusement as he gazed at her heaving chest, speaking slowly: “Since you’re unharmed, but you did make a mistake—if there’s no punishment, you won’t remember.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feralda’s heart clenched again, unsure what punishment awaited her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet Li Chen’s next action left her utterly stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He swept his arm around her waist, whispered something in her ear, then half-carried, half-supported her into the inner bedroom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That night, Li Chen imposed an extremely severe and thorough punishment upon her, only ending as dawn began to break.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next day, when Sylph “happened” to come for morning greetings, she saw Feralda limping out of the Sacred Hall, leaning against the wall, legs visibly weak, barely able to stand, her wheat-toned skin still flushed with lingering redness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sylph smiled inwardly but feigned innocent concern: “Aunt Feralda, what happened? Your face is so flushed, you can’t even walk straight—did you overexert yourself serving Your Radiance last night? Were you hurt?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feralda’s cheeks instantly blazed crimson like a ripe apple; she averted her gaze and waved her hands frantically, voice barely a whisper: “N-no! I’m fine! Just tired—I just need to rest.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this, she fled in a stiff, awkward gait, leaving Sylph standing there with a sly, triumphant smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dragging her weary, strangely altered body, Feralda limped back to her residence—a quiet, elegant courtyard near the core zone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as she entered the gate, her daughter Serathis rushed forward to meet her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Serathis had inherited her mother’s beauty and dark elf bloodline: wheat-toned skin, black hair, violet eyes, tall and slender, with a sharp, uncommonly fierce air in her brow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She possessed extraordinary talent and stood among the top of her peers in cultivation—though Li Chen had never taken notice of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she saw her mother’s odd gait, flushed cheeks, and the faint, unmistakable trace of lust and exhaustion in her expression, she instantly understood what had happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A surge of rage shot through her head; Serathis’s eyebrows snapped down, she gripped her mother tightly, her voice trembling with suppressed fury and anguish: “Mother! Who?! Who hurt you? Tell me—I’ll go kill him right now!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Images of several family elders who had long harbored ill will toward her mother flashed through her mind; she clenched her fists until her knuckles turned white.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She remembered clearly: before her father took the near-suicidal family death mission, he had solemnly taken her hand and warned: “Serath, if I don’t come back, you must protect your mother. Don’t let her suffer.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had kept those words etched in her heart—and now, seeing her mother “abused,” how could she not rage?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feralda looked at her daughter’s furious expression, her heart swelling with warmth and dread.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knew her daughter’s stubborn nature and considerable strength—if she didn’t explain clearly, Serathis might do something reckless, with unthinkable consequences.\u003C\u002Fp>",582,"2026-06-20T21:59:20.546Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","3de59bba2395375669ba322ab73aba57c82a9061d22345b2b4d79be4b0d6b822","i-just-maxed-out-and-you-want-me-to-be-a-puppet--chapter-761","i-just-maxed-out-and-you-want-me-to-be-a-puppet--chapter-759",766,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-just-maxed-out-and-you-want-me-to-be-a-puppet--cover.jpg"]
