Chapter 125: No Light in the Eyes



The quilt in the room was as white as snow, and any dirt on it was obvious. Therefore, the blood on it looked even more evil, like a silent accusation and the most powerful witness of the crime.

Since ancient times, people have said that dying of hunger is a minor matter, but losing one's chastity is a major matter. First, an unmarried woman tested her chastity before getting married, and then a widow from Liang State named Gao Xing cut off her nose to preserve her chastity. This shows how important it is, but now, Huiyue has lost the most important thing to her. Her precious first time was torn and taken away by a beast.

Shu Shuang choked up as she cleaned Huiyue's wounds and picked up a quilt from the cabinet. When she turned around, she saw Huiyue raising her tired eyelids.

"Xia Xiao."

"Xia Xiao."

Shu Shuang called Xia Xiao over, and when she looked at Hui Yue, she was filled with heartache. Her clever eyes no longer had the light they once had, and were now turbid with a few bloodshot streaks.

Huiyue lay on the bed with two pillows behind her, seeming to recall what happened before. Her memory seemed to be fragmented, and her whole body was in pain, making her reaction very slow. Soon, Huiyue seemed to remember that the corridor was full of fog, and her eyes were dark, the dungeon, the iron chains and ropes, and the words those men said.

"Anyone related to Xia Xiao must be extraordinary. Should we lock him up?"

"It must be locked up, and double-tied with chains and ropes."

"I took the opportunity to touch it twice before. It was so big and soft."

"I'll try it, too. I'll try it, too."

Thinking of that, Huiyue clenched her hands tightly, causing the cup in her hand to almost break. Noticing her action, Xia Xiao took the cup and asked:

"Who else besides Si Bu Wen?"

Even though Huiyue hadn't spoken yet, Xia Xiao knew that the only one who dared to do this to Huiyue was Si Buwen! As for letting her go, was it because he had eliminated Siying and was sure to win the final?

When Xia Xiao analyzed, a tear slid down Huiyue's face, and her heart was dark and cold. There was nothing in that dungeon, only pain and coldness, and constant torture.

Huiyue didn't want to answer the question now, so she sat there for a long time. More and more images flashed through her mind, but the more she thought about it, the more empty she felt. Those things were so unreal. Did she really experience them herself? She wasn't sure.

Huiyue's mind was far less firm than Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang's, so they sat with her and could not act arbitrarily before she told them what happened. This matter was not something that could be settled by just going to the square and seeing who had the loudest voice. So Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang remained calm in panic, waiting for Huiyue to speak.

Seeing Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang return, Hui Yue should have been happy. She also realized this and stammered:

"Welcome back."

His heart was beating again, Xia Xiao looked at Huiyue. She was now conscious and confused. Was she really clear about what she was saying?

The difference between ordinary people and practitioners lies in the ability to recover from injuries and regulate oneself. Huiyue is just an ordinary person. The more things in his mind, the more confused he becomes and the harder it is to control himself.

When it was dark, Huiyue still couldn't explain the reason, but there were still tears in the corners of her eyes.

"I……"

Finally, Huiyue spoke. She was at a loss, Shushuang held her hand and gave her enough spiritual comfort. Xia Xiao sat aside and said:

"Tell us, we will help you decide."

"We are going to the imperial capital tomorrow?"

Huiyue is concerned about this problem. After all, she is just an ordinary citizen. When she encounters unfair things, her first reaction is to escape and tolerate, not to solve them. There are many things like this. It is said that if you take a step back, the world will be broader and the world will be calmer. There are too many injustices in the world, but Xia Xiao will not be wronged.

"Shu Shuang, come here."

As Xia Xiao spoke, he pulled out the machete behind the door.

"Take good care of Huiyue. I'll go by myself."

"No, you can't handle it."

"She needs your care."

Xia Xiao looked at Huiyue, and she was looking at him. He didn't know what Huiyue had been through, but he was sure that the torture had made her feel miserable.

"Don't go, I said."

Huiyue spoke softly, asking Xia Xiao to put down his machete and walk back to her with Shu Shuang.

Grabbing the quilt and looking at the ceiling, Huiyue took a deep breath and spoke about what was in her mind in a trembling voice.

"That was the fifth day after Si Ying was eliminated. I watched the daytime screening and followed the crowd back. Because I always felt that someone was watching me, I was very careful. I followed many people and stayed very close to them. On the way back to the building, I had to pass through a very long corridor. Every night when I came back, I was very careful, for fear that something would happen and cause trouble for you. But that day, I lost consciousness there..."

Huiyue repeatedly said that she was very careful and not careless. Her eyelashes trembled slightly and tears welled up in her eyes. She seemed to be unable to control herself.

"After I woke up, I seemed to be in a dungeon. It was very dark and big, with only a candle burning. I remember... there were chains making noises, as if they were tied to me, and then there were men's voices, they were very noisy, and then..."

Huiyue stopped, lowered her eyes, and tears fell one by one. She didn't want to talk about that incident anymore. After that, she felt drowsy every day, and her body was violated over and over again. The shame made her want to resist. She screamed loudly and bit off the flesh of the man in front of her, but she couldn't escape.

Even if Huiyue didn't say anything more, Xia Xiao understood. To deal with women, those dirty little things? Thieves only have one way to torture them.

Xia Xiao stood up, but Huiyue started crying and said quickly:

"Don't go, it's the last step."

Huiyue, who knew the plan clearly, begged with a hoarse voice. She didn't want Xia Xiao to suffer because of her. In her eyes, his forehead was entangled with blue veins and his face was red, but Xia Xiao opened his lips slightly and just said gently.

"I'll go get a bowl of porridge, wait for me to come back."

Xia Xiao said as he walked out the door. When Huiyue wasn't paying attention, he took the machete with him. After closing the door, Xia Xiao jumped down from the second floor and walked towards the depths of the palace.

"Shu Shuang, go stop him, go quickly!"

Huiyue urged, but Shushuang just pulled her and hugged her.

"Trust Xia Xiao, everything will be fine."

At this time, the palace was filled with thick fog. Xia Xiao made a hand seal and Ju Mang appeared behind him.

"What's wrong?"

"Huiyue has been defiled. Let's seek justice."

When Ju Mang heard this, he was furious. He was not like Xia Xiao who could control his temper, so he asked angrily:

"Kill who?"

"Everyone!"

The three words weighed as much as a thousand pounds as they came out of Xia Xiao's mouth. He was furious, and his anger overwhelmed his rationality, with a fire of indignation in his eyes.

He thought about the possibility of such a thing happening, but with teachers from the Ningshen Academy in Wanling City, who would dare to act recklessly? He originally thought that Si Buwen would restrain himself, but he didn't expect that he would still threaten him with Huiyue. Was he going to use Huiyue to tell him how dangerous his situation was? Or was he simply trying to trick him into making a mistake?

Even if he made a mistake, Xia Xiao couldn't stand it! Not everything can be tolerated.

When others insulted and humiliated him, he would improve his strength and fight back. However, Si Buwen attacked people around him again, and he could not turn a blind eye!

Xia Xiao would probably remember the way Huiyue grabbed the quilt and didn't dare to look him in the eye for a long time.

Walking to the square under the accommodation building, Xia Xiao rushed into the fog, as if separated from the outside world. Then, Xia Xiao thought of the things in the imperial capital.

In the imperial capital, his Xia family could not hold their heads up in front of the Dynasty Elders' House. Hundreds of Xia family servants died in their familiar family courtyard. At that time, he was powerless to save the situation and could only watch the familiar faces die one by one.

They knelt in the courtyard, shouting "No regrets, no regrets", each one louder than the last, believing that the heavens were fair. Now, their young master was no longer humble, and he could freely use the vitality of heaven and earth.

A flame ignited in his heart, gradually burning, gradually expanding, and rushing to Xia Xiao's eyes. The cold light in his eyes disappeared, and Xia Xiao's pupils turned red. Then, Xia Xiao's steps stopped abruptly.

"Xia Xiao?"

The murderous Ju Mang called out his name, but Xia Xiao froze in place with his eyes closed, as if he had entered another mysterious world.

Opening his eyes, Xia Xiao was surrounded by heat. He stood on the top of the volcano. The hot air spewing out of it made Xia Xiao, who was wearing a green shirt, sweat. The top of the volcano in front of him was wide, like a lake of magma, with hot air steaming in it and an altar in the center.

Xia Xiao had seen this scene before when Ju Mang was transformed. The magma seemed to be able to melt everything, and the altar was firmly on top of it. From a long distance, Xia Xiao could see a ray of light on the altar above the layers of magma. Xia Xiao approached and accidentally stepped on the surface of the magma. But his feet did not sink, but just floated on it, as if walking on flat ground.

The bursting bubbles splashed out a few drops of molten lava, melting Xia Xiao's trouser legs, but the skin underneath didn't feel anything at all, as if only a few drops of water had been dripped.

Maybe because he was too angry, Xia Xiao didn't care too much and just walked towards the altar. There was a volcano in the world, with a mouth as big as a lake, and the heat could burn the sky. Several rocks rolled down the hillside and immediately caught fire. Xia Xiao saw it, frowned, and his eyes showed anxiety.

Xia Xiao can't afford to waste time now, he has things to do, and the fire element can give him the power of destruction, so come on, let me have your power.

With Ju Mang's experience, Xia Xiao was no longer confused. He just ran across the Chiyan Lake and stepped onto the altar.

The altar was made of only a very thin layer of rock, and underneath it was all in molten lava. Xia Xiao's soles were melted through, and when he stepped onto the altar, the molten lava caused a few streams of green smoke to come out.

There was a light on the altar. When I got closer, I found it was a flame with life moving in it. So, Xia Xiao will have a second contracted beast?

He wanted to touch it with his palm, but the calmly burning flame suddenly turned into a vicious dog, extremely ferocious and huge, biting Xia Xiao's hand as if to bite it off.

The moment he retracted his hand, Xia Xiao's eyes in the building square suddenly opened wide, and flames flashed and spread out rapidly.

“Damn it!”

Xia Xiao panted heavily. The vicious dog was scary, but... Xia Xiao's palm seemed to be wrapped in flames. Xia Xiao curiously used the method of using the wood element to use the power of the fire element, and it really was used freely by him.

"Xia Xiao?"

Ju Mang called him, causing Xia Xiao to raise his head quickly. His pupils were now red, the color of pure flames, not bloodshot.

After exchanging glances with Xia Xiao, Ju Mang glanced out of the thick fog. Xia Xiao sensed it, so he held the machete in his backhand and walked towards him.

"Let's go and turn the world upside down!"
