253. Chapter 253: What, what are you going to do?

"Stop now, and this Venerable one can still spare your life. If you continue, it will be too late."

Yi Zhuyue glared fiercely at Su Chen, her voice trembling as she spoke.

Su Chen had not expected that Yi Zhuyue would still have the heart to utter threats at a time like this; it seemed the whip he had just wielded hadn't been painful enough.

"You still have the mood to say things like that? Is it because you think my strength was too little and I didn't whip you enough to satisfy you?"

Su Chen chuckled, his eyes filled with a malicious glint.

It was the first time Yi Zhuyue had heard such crude and unbearable words; she felt as if fireworks were going off in her brain, exploding all at once, and she couldn't even manage to retort immediately.

Su Chen looked at her dazed expression, her eyelashes trembling slightly like a fluttering butterfly, adding a touch of naive charm.

"Woman, you know what is best to confess truthfully. I guarantee that following me, Su Chen, won't be any worse than following your master."

Su Chen grabbed Yi Zhuyue's jade-like hand and said with a grin.

The man's hand before her was scorching and powerful; she couldn't break free at all once he grabbed her, and a unique masculine scent assailed her nostrils without restraint.

For a moment, Yi Zhuyue actually forgot to speak.

Su Chen took the opportunity to stroke Yi Zhuyue's smooth little hand, which was as silky as milk, and he sighed in comfort.

Only then did Yi Zhuyue realize what Su Chen was doing, and she immediately shook her hand away forcefully.

"Is the greatness of my master something that a mere thing from the lower realm like you can compare to? Keep dreaming your grand spring dreams!"

Yi Zhuyue said, flushed with anger, her eyes wide and round.

Upon hearing this, Su Chen's expression turned cold.

He could have considered the first or second refusal as a bit of playful banter, but this woman was actually so unappreciative as to say such things.

No man could tolerate a woman saying he was inferior to another man.

Especially since Yi Zhuyue's current status was not that of a virtuous person; at the thought of this, Su Chen did not hold back at all and lashed out with several more whips.

Yi Zhuyue's clothes were whipped into tatters, with only a few scattered pieces of fabric hanging on her body, barely covering her vital parts.

Her fair neck was also covered in whip marks, and her arms and legs were basically not spared, but because Su Chen deliberately held back his strength, there was no bleeding, only marks.

"Didn't you always claim that this Venerable one is very noble? Now that you are in this state, with your clothes barely covering you and your body covered in marks of abuse, what kind of thing are you?"

Seeing this, Su Chen sneered and said, looking Yi Zhuyue up and down with indifference.

Hearing this, Yi Zhuyue couldn't help but bite her lip. She didn't know why, but although she clearly didn't care about these words, hearing them from Su Chen's mouth made her feel inexplicably insulted.

She had reached the position of Protector for her master naturally by relying on her own strength, but there were still some who were jealous of her rapid rise and questioned whether she had used her beauty to trade for this position.

However, back then, she usually used her fists to conquer those people; the Immortal World never kept idle people, and the capable occupied the positions.

At that time, she was the most noble Protector in the entire Immortal World.

But now, having come to the lower realm, she was actually tied up and abused to such a state by a man who wouldn't even be fit to serve her tea and water in the past.

Yi Zhuyue's beautiful eyes were already filled with a touch of melancholy, as if she had suffered a great insult.

Su Chen naturally didn't want to waste time here staring at her; after all, this was just the beginning, and the real main event was still to come.

Thinking of this, Su Chen's large hand suddenly pressed onto Yi Zhuyue's shoulder, while his other hand gripped her chin.

"You do look quite good." Su Chen curled his lips and clicked his tongue twice, "It's just that you can't see the situation before you; you're too stupid."

Hearing this, Yi Zhuyue couldn't help but say: "The one who can't see the situation is you. You have only trapped me for now; if my master finds out, he will definitely avenge me. There are thousands of people with the same cultivation as me by my master's side; when the time comes, a hundred of you wouldn't be enough to deal with."

Hearing this, Su Chen burst out laughing.

"You keep calling this the lower realm; you must have been here for quite a few years, right?"

Su Chen grinned and said with a smile.

Yi Zhuyue didn't know what medicine he was selling in his gourd, but she had indeed been here for hundreds of thousands of years, so she just looked at him with suspicious eyes.

"Besides giving you tasks, has your master ever let you return to the Heavenly Realm? Do you really think you are that important in his heart? He just thinks you are a useful blade, that's all."

Su Chen curled his lips and said teasingly.

These words made Yi Zhuyue pause for a moment. She had never seriously thought about this before; after all, she just did whatever her master ordered.

But she still couldn't help but retort: "My master said that after everything is over, he will reward me with anything I want and promote my position. Besides, he said he doesn't trust anyone else; only when I do it is he at ease."

Perhaps because Yi Zhuyue had no confidence in her heart, she even forgot to refer to herself as 'this Venerable one'.

Hearing this, Su Chen couldn't help but click his tongue twice. Damn capitalists really know how to brainwash people; they don't have to pay anything, just moving their lips is enough to make their subordinates go through fire and water for them.

Thinking of this, Su Chen looked at Yi Zhuyue with a bit of pity.

"You keep saying your master values you, but you've been here for so long; has he ever cared about you once? Has he ever offered you a helping hand? Has he ever cared whether you were injured?"

Hearing this, Yi Zhuyue was stunned, because indeed, he had not.

"To him, you are just someone dispensable by his side. If you are gone, there will naturally be others. And do you really think you can go back so easily after coming here?"

Su Chen continued to say with a grin.

"The Immortal World you speak of should be a path that people can only ascend to after transcending, but as far as I know, no one has ascended from the Tianxuan Continent for a million years. What makes you think you can go back?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Yi Zhuyue's complexion successfully turned very ugly.

However, the million-year bond between her and her master was naturally not something that could be turned upside down by a few casual words from Su Chen.

Moreover, she was a servant, and it was normal to face danger while helping her master.

Yi Zhuyue comforted herself in her heart.

If Su Chen heard this, he would definitely shout that Yi Zhuyue was truly good at self-hypnosis.

"That is none of your business. The affairs of this Venerable one are not for a piece of scum from the lower realm like you to point fingers at."

Yi Zhuyue snorted coldly, returning to her noble and cold appearance from before.

"I've said all the good and bad things I could to you, yet you are so stubborn. Then I must make you suffer a little."

Su Chen was amused to the point of anger; he didn't know whether to call this woman loyal or stupid. However, he had plenty of ways to deal with such disobedient little wild cats.

"What, what are you going to do?"

Seeing Su Chen's highly aggressive gaze, Yi Zhuyue felt an inexplicable sense of foreboding in her heart.

She shrank back, her eyes filled with wariness as she looked at Su Chen. (End of chapter)
