Although Qiao Zixian recognized Ye Chengping, she didn't say anything. Instead, she pretended to be scared and asked, "What do you want to do?"

After all, Ye Chengping was dressed like this so that she wouldn't recognize him.

Since that was the case, she pretended not to recognize him.

She wanted to see exactly what Ye Chengping wanted to do to her!

Qiao Zixian's voice was soft and weak, and coupled with her flushed face, she looked very alluring.

Upon seeing this, Ye Chengping's eyes ignited with desire, and he strode closer.

As Ye Chengping walked in, Qiao Zixian realized that there were other people standing in the courtyard.

They were all dressed in the same clothes and wearing the same masks.

One of them shouted into the house, "Hurry up! We're all waiting here!"

Qiao Zixian was by no means an innocent woman; how could she not understand after hearing these words?!

Unexpectedly, Ye Chengping not only had no genuine feelings for her, but also wanted to humiliate her in this way!

"Ye Chengping! Why?!"

Qiao Zixian didn't care about anything else and directly called out Ye Chengping's name.

Upon hearing this, Ye Chengping, who was closing the door, trembled but remained silent.

After turning around, he exuded an aura of aggression.

As Ye Chengping approached, Qiao Zixian gave a bitter smile, "Heh! So this is what you've always wanted... Men are all lustful, the sincerity I long for is ultimately just a pipe dream..."

Ye Chengping walked up to Qiao Zixian, grabbed her chin, gave her a deep look, and curled the corners of his mouth into a smile.

With his other hand, he ripped off the mask, revealing his entire face.

"Xian'er, now that you recognize me, I don't need to hide it anymore."

"Don't pretend to be so affectionate. You want my true feelings, but have you ever been sincere with me?! You and your father are just using me! What your father doesn't know is that I saw through his intentions long ago. For you, I was just acting!"

As he spoke, he reached out and lifted Qiao Zixian's clothes, revealing a red bodice and her snow-white skin underneath.

"You're clearly a slut, yet you're pretending to be innocent! Countless men have touched and slept with your body, but you refuse to let me touch you!"

"Smack!"

Ye Chengping slapped Qiao Zixian without any mercy.

He then reached out and stroked Qiao Zixian's slapped face, and with the same affectionate expression as before, said softly, "Do you know, I originally didn't intend to kill you, but since you recognized me, you have no choice but to die, otherwise I won't be able to explain to your father."

Why are you so able to recognize me at a glance? If you couldn't, you would live, and I would be spared a lot of trouble.

However, since things have come to this, I have no other choice.

A large hand reached into Qiao Zixian's clothes, sending shivers down her spine.

"Ha! You're really sensitive. You use this pretty body to seduce those men, don't you?"

If we're talking about ruthlessness, I'm no match for your father, who allowed his own daughter to seduce men like a prostitute.

And you, you actually did it willingly!

It seems you were born a lowly creature. Your father saw through your true nature and did this to satisfy you.

But don't worry, if you're still not satisfied after I'm done, there are plenty of people outside who can certainly satisfy you!

Ye Chengping's original plan was to humiliate Qiao Zixian and then pin the blame on Zheng Yi.

If he arrives in time to rescue Qiao Zixian from danger and treats her even better, perhaps he can make her depend on him and truly fall in love with him.

I didn’t expect Qiao Zixian to recognize him so quickly.

Perhaps he was too impatient.

However, he did not regret it.

He'd been pretending for almost five years, and he really couldn't keep it up any longer!

Thinking of Zheng Yi's smug and lewd expression, he felt aggrieved!

...

Half an hour later, Ye Chengping dressed and stood by the bed, looking down at Qiao Zixian, who was lying on the bed like a dead dog, with undisguised mockery on his face.

"So-called celestial beings are nothing special! They're not even as good as Meng'er from the Dream Pavilion!"

Qiao Zixian lay in bed, her pillow soaked with tears.

Her tears were a mixture of physical and emotional pain; she couldn't tell if they were from the physical pain or the emotional pain. In any case, the pain was so intense that she could hardly breathe and she couldn't stop crying.

"Ye Chengping, have you ever had even a shred of sincerity towards me?"

Qiao Zixian asked in a hoarse voice.

But Ye Chengping's answer completely extinguished her last remaining hope.

"At first, I was indeed somewhat sincere, but ever since I learned that you were not a respectable woman, I only regarded you as a pastime! I never expected that you, my pastime, would bring me such a big surprise!"

Speaking of which, I really should thank you properly, thank you to your father!

I will find an opportunity to thank your father later.

As for you, the gift I prepared as thanks has been waiting outside for quite some time!

Qiao Zixian's heart is broken.

She was deceived by her father.

If a woman loses her chastity, she will never win a man's heart!

Qiao Zixian had already anticipated what was about to happen. Although she had lost her innocence, she did not want to suffer such humiliation, so she wanted to stall for time and wait for Ye Zeyu's actions.

Why are you doing this to me?

Upon hearing this, Ye Chengping's face turned sinister.

"You forced me to do this! If you had obediently submitted to me from the beginning, I would not have treated you like this! You could have slept with any man, but you pushed me away!"

You're just trying to keep me in suspense!

The more you act like this, the more disgusted I feel!

A slut like you deserves to be trampled on by everyone!

Qiao Zixian explained, "No, it's just that I'm attracted to you, and I don't know how to face you..."

"Enough! How could you come up with such a ridiculous excuse!"

Ye Chengping impatiently interrupted Qiao Zixian before she could finish speaking, and then walked towards the door.

He was still thinking about how to kill Zheng Yi when he opened the door, but unexpectedly, his throat was slit by a steel knife the instant he opened the door.

Blood spurted out, and Ye Chengping covered his bleeding neck with both hands, looking at the person in front of him with disbelief.

Wearing a mask, Ye Ziyu's eyes were filled with coldness as he looked at Ye Chengping lying on the ground, his heart completely unmoved.

"Prince Jing colluded with the Heavenly Immortal Sect in an attempt to rebel, but was killed by me for resisting! The Heavenly Immortal Sect is now leaderless. If they do not disband within three days, I will spare no one!"

Ye Zeyu spoke coldly, his voice not loud.

Qiao Zixian knew that Ye Zeyu's words were only meant for her.

"You knew all along that Ye Chengping would treat me like this!"

Qiao Zixian spoke with absolute certainty.

But Ye Ziyu did not answer her question. Instead, he turned and left without a moment's hesitation.

At this moment, Qiao Zixian wanted to end her life, but her limp body made it impossible for her to even lift her hairpin.

Just then, Zheng Yi, who was acting rather furtively, walked in.
