Chapter 62 One Wave Subsides, Another Rises



"Ye Chen, you bastard!"

I was so angry I wanted to kill someone.

"Ah Hua!" At this moment, Zhou Lang also staggered over, leaning against the door and window, upon hearing the sound.

When he saw Ye Chen tearing at my clothes like a ravenous wolf, his pupils constricted and he rushed over in a panic.

However, his body suddenly went out of control, and he fell heavily to the ground, feeling dizzy and lightheaded.

Hearing the commotion of Zhou Lang rushing towards them,

I took advantage of Ye Chen's gaze turning towards the doorway.

With a "smack!", she slapped him across the face, but she used too much force and dislocated her arm. Her arm hung limply down like a tattered rag.

"Ahua, don't move. This poison is specifically designed to suppress the function of your blood. The more you move, the more painful it will be for your body to dissipate the sealed spiritual energy within you through the cracking of your tendons and bones."

While giving instructions, Ye Chen helped me put my dislocated arm back in place.

Hearing him say that, I tried to get up again, but my whole body was weak and I couldn't move or even speak. I could only grit my teeth and glare fiercely at this shameless dog in front of me.

Ye Chen shamelessly rolled over and pinned me down.

He tore my clothes to shreds again, and when he saw that all I was left with was a red undergarment that barely covered my body.

It was more like a hungry wolf that stripped off all his upper clothes.

He revealed a muscular physique and lunged at me with bloodshot eyes.

I frowned and turned my head away in pain towards Zhou Lang on the ground.

Zhou Lang drank my blood, and now he's probably just like me, completely powerless and unable to move. Even if he tries to move, he can only endure the pain of his tendons and veins being torn apart.

As expected, Zhou Lang stared at me and Ye Chen with a deathly pale face. He opened his mouth but could not make a sound. Only his eyes could project a chilling and murderous aura. He lay on the ground, clenching his hands, his chest heaving as he tried to prop himself up again.

"Pfft!" A pool of blood gushed from his mouth and landed on the ground.

Without moving an inch, he fell heavily to the ground, his snow-white clothes stained crimson by the pool of blood on the ground.

"Cough cough!" Zhou Lang coughed heavily a few times, then painfully spat out black blood from his mouth.

I looked at him in despair and shook my head, signaling him not to make any more futile struggles.

Zhou Lang's eyes began to blur with tears, filled with regret and remorse.

Just when I felt I had no will to live.

Suddenly, a series of rustling footsteps were heard outside the house, approaching from afar.

Immediately afterwards, a swarm of people, armed with shovels, hoes, and sticks, stormed into our room.

When I looked closely, I saw that Aunt Wang, another young woman who was crying, and several other strong men from the village had seen me and Ye Chen lying half-naked on the bed in an indecent position. They were stunned for a long time.

"Oh dear, Zhou Lang, are you alright?" Aunt Wang saw Zhou Lang lying on the ground spitting blood and went to help him up with an exaggerated and hypocritical tone of concern.

"I knew this girl and this man were adulterers. Now that Zhou Lang caught them in the act, they must have killed him to avoid being exposed."

Zhou Lang was speechless and could only shake his head in despair.

Unfortunately, these people neither understood nor wanted to understand Zhou Yu's meaning.

She simply looked at Zhou Lang with a face full of sympathy and regret.

"This girl must be in cahoots with the young prince who rebelled. I saw him visiting here a few days ago. Now that prince has fled with the princess of the enemy country, this woman must be his spy planted here!"

Did the prince flee with the princess of the enemy country and rebel? The plot unfolded exactly as I predicted.

It is said that the fates of mortals are all fabricated by the God of Fate.

His plot is so clichéd and full of tired tropes.

But you ran away, leaving me with this mess.

“My poor son! He ate a meal here a few days ago and fell ill the next day. It must be that traitorous witch cast some kind of spell on my son.”

"Yes! This woman must have some kind of sorcery! She killed the Zhou couple and now she's trying to harm my son."

One of the young women pointed at me and started crying, tears streaming down her face.

One problem after another arose. On the day of the housewarming celebration, the children who had been eagerly waiting at the door were indeed treated to a free meal.

Zhou Lang and I watched Ye Chen cook, and there was nothing unusual. So why is he blaming me for his child getting sick?

But I felt like a mute eating bitter melon, unable to express my suffering.

"Yes, you vixen! You adulterous couple who don't uphold the virtues of womanhood!"

"The master said that if we offer her as a sacrifice in the lake in front of the village, my son's life can still be saved!" The young woman cried out as if she had found a lifeline.

A master? It seems they really do have someone behind the scenes.

"Yes, tie her up! Drain her in a pig cage!"

Aunt Wang also joined in the commotion.

Immediately afterwards, several strong young men behind us approached me and Ye Chen with ropes.

I stared wide-eyed at Ye Chen, wondering if he could lend me a hand.

Suddenly, Ye Chen's expression changed drastically. His eyes turned bloodshot, and he stood up from me with a wicked smile. He ran to the group of people in a feigned panic and said, "That's right, this girl is indeed a vixen. I was seduced by her! Everyone, you must judge for me!"

However, the voice she uttered was quite alluring and coquettish, completely opposite to Ye Chen's original deep voice.

Could it be that Ye Ling'er has already taken over Ye Chen's body?

"Little flower spirit, no one can save you today!"

Suddenly, I heard a coded message that no mortal could hear.

"Are you Ye Ling'er?" I replied.

"That's right, that overconfident coward Ye Chen, he even dared to try to rebuild his lustful spirit? But are you happy that I helped you get through this ordeal and didn't let him defile you?"

Ye Ling'er reported to me with great pride, as if she wanted to claim credit and reward.

"Ha, thank you!" I said coldly.

However, this group of people ignored Ye Chen's explanation and tied him and me up together.

They've put all sorts of accusations on me; the next step is definitely to drown me in a pig cage.

Just then, Ye Chen and I were stuffed into a huge, long bamboo cage.

I've seen this kind of plot countless times in similar stories in traditional Chinese storybooks.

I never imagined that my identity as a Heavenly Tribulation would also require me to undergo such a clichéd and mundane tribulation.

As it turns out, it really did happen to me.

But I was powerless, unable to speak or move, and could only watch helplessly as these people stuffed me into that cold bamboo cage.

However, it seems that after Ye Ling'er returned to Ye Chen's body, she did not regain any magic or defensive techniques.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have let these country bumpkins be tied together.

This group of people carried my body and Ye Chen's body with great force.

Upon reaching the lake, there were two loud "splashes!"

I was then submerged by the lake...
