Ayao said to Lu Xiuwen, "Father, I'm tired, so I'll take my leave now!"
Lu Xiuwen nodded.
Ayao then transformed into a purple rainbow and flew towards Purple Extreme Peak.
Lu Xiuwen ignored everyone else and disappeared from the spot.
Xu Lianxin's face was extremely ugly. Lu Yunli and Lu Yunchuan stood on either side of her, each saying a sentence:
"Mother, Mother, please think of something!"
"Mother, Mother, please think of a way to get Father to release Xiao Ba quickly!"
"Mother, we can only rely on you now!"
"Mother, please think of something!"
Xu Lianxin was annoyed by their noise: "Shut up!"
When she got angry, Lu Yunli and Lu Yunchuan fell silent.
Not long after, Lu Yunxing, Lu Yunqi, and Lu Yunlin returned. Upon learning that Lu Xuening had been imprisoned in the water dungeon, the three brothers were shocked. While Lu Yunxing and Lu Yunqi were still wondering, Lu Yunlin rushed to his father, Lu Xiuwen, to plead for him. Lu Xiuwen then ordered him to be imprisoned in the water dungeon.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
————
Inside the water dungeon, Lu Xuening, pale as a sheet, was submerged in the icy pool. She screamed until her throat was hoarse; she had pretended to faint and pretended to be dead, but it was no use.
She cursed everyone in her heart.
She cursed A Yao, it must be Lu Xueyao, Lu Xueyao must have said bad things about her to her father, that's why her father was so cruel.
She cursed Lu Xiuwen, cursing his heartlessness and saying that all his previous affection for her was fake. She also cursed Xu Lianxin, Lu Yunli, and others. Why? Why didn't they come to save her?
It's so cold! It's so cold!
Her hands were bound by chains. Suddenly, the restrictions on the chains activated. Every half hour, these restrictions would be automatically triggered, and red lightning would surge from the chains, spreading from her arms to her entire body. The intense pain also spread to every corner of her body.
"Aaaaaahh ...
Lu Xuening let out another shrill scream.
After the punishment, she was on the verge of death.
Suddenly, the door opened. She thought someone had come to rescue her, but instead found her sixth brother being brought in as a prisoner.
"Hachi! Hachi!"
When Lu Yunlin saw Lu Xuening's pale face, he felt so heartbroken that he almost cried.
Lu Xuening's eyes widened as she watched Lu Yunlin being locked next to her, and then the people from the punishment hall leaving. She cried out excitedly, "Let me out! Let me out!"
The door is closed!
Suddenly, Lu Xuening felt hopeless again.
Tears rolled down her cheeks.
She doesn't want to stay here!
"Xiao Ba, Xiao Ba, how are you?" Lu Yunlin tried to get closer to Lu Xuening, but the chains clanged, and then the punishment restriction was triggered, causing him to scream from the electric shock.
Lu Xuening said in a hoarse voice, "Sixth Brother, don't move around, it will... it will trigger the restriction..."
Even though Xiao Ba was so weak, she was still thinking of him, which made Lu Yunlin feel even more heartbroken. Father, Father, you're too cruel! This is Xiao Ba! How could you do this to me?
"Sixth...Sixth Brother, Father...Father doesn't want me anymore, does he?" Lu Xuening asked in a hoarse voice. She was soaked to the bone, her hair was wet and tangled on her body, her face was deathly pale and bloodless. It was very cold here, and there was white breath coming out when she spoke. There were even ice crystals on her hair.
"Xiao Ba, Xiao Ba, no, no..." Lu Yunlin felt heartbroken and shed tears when he saw how pitiful Lu Xuening was and how powerless he was to help her.
It's all Lu Xueyao, everything is about Lu Xueyao, he and Lu Xueyao are irreconcilable enemies.

While Lu Xuening and Lu Yunlin were suffering in the water prison, A Yao was carefree on her Purple Extreme Peak, practicing martial arts, refining pills, forging weapons, feeding spirit insects, and nurturing spirit plants.
Nangong Qi came to see A Yao, but Lu Xiuwen didn't like him and lied that A Yao was in seclusion.
Although he had dismissed Nangong Qi once, Nangong Qi soon returned, accompanied by the head of the Nangong family. Although Lu Xiuwen did not want A Yao to marry Nangong Qi, he also did not intend to strain relations with the Nangong family, so he had no choice but to deal with them.
Others didn't know Lu Xiuwen's thoughts; they only knew that Miss Lu Qi had saved Nangong Qi, and that the Nangong family members kept running to Kunshan. Soon, news spread that Nangong Qi, the third young master of the Nangong family, was in love with Miss Lu Qi.
The Divine Dream Sect immediately panicked.
Wei Linglong was extremely anxious. She stood at the door of the secret chamber where Xu Fengzhi often secluded himself, her anxiety burning: "What time is it? He's still in seclusion. If he continues like this, he won't even have a wife."
She had seen Nangong Qi before; his appearance was truly...
Even though she thought her son was good in every way, he really couldn't compare to others in terms of looks. She didn't care about the other competitors, but Nangong Qi's family background and talent were no worse than her son's, and he was even better looking than her son. She was really afraid that little girl Ayao would fall for Nangong Qi just by looking at his face.
Xu Yunzhou was also anxious, but he had already sent many communication jade slips. That kid must have set up some kind of restriction in the secret room, because even his divine sense couldn't penetrate it.
If they were to barge in rashly, they feared they might harm their son. After all, when one's cultivation reaches a bottleneck, being disturbed could easily lead to a backlash and serious injury.
The couple were very anxious, but helpless. They could never have imagined that while they worried about their son and daughter-in-law running away, their son had already been replaced, and his remaining consciousness was being constantly devoured until one day it would completely disappear.
————
Lu Xuening and Lu Yunlin were released after spending ten days in the water dungeon. Lu Xiuwen originally wanted to keep them imprisoned for longer, but Lu Xuening really couldn't hold on any longer and almost died, so he released her.
