Chapter 61 Hope



Chapter 61 Hope

But Jane Anning had no intention of escaping at all.

Wu Dong almost watched her act according to the most ideal way she had imagined in her heart.

"Then I can always put pressure on myself?"

Wu Dong was actually a little worried, because people usually only dare to bet on organs or limbs, but no one would directly bet everything they have.

But of the two people in front of her, one looked like a pure mortal. She could even feel that this mortal had not even drunk the blood of God, and the other had just awakened and was not even at the White Clothes Realm.

In short, there could be no threat to her.

Wu Dong's arrogance about her power made her not pay too much attention to Jian An Ning's unusual behavior, and she also didn't care about Lu Fei's existence at all.

She extended her hand slightly towards Jian An Ning and said, "Come on then."

The sound of dice shaking in the dice cup rang out again, but Wu Dong saw that Jian An Ning picked up the dice cup and just shook it twice lightly and symbolically. The perfunctory action even made her feel a nameless anger rising.

Wu Dong felt a sense of contempt, as if the woman seemed to disdain to regard her as an opponent.

"Click"

The dice cup in Wu Dong's hand cracked in her anger. She opened the dice cup and still revealed the highest number.

As for Jane Anning, her points were undoubtedly lower than hers.

Wu Dong suddenly laughed triumphantly and said, "You lose. Now you belong to me!"

Jane Anning had no objection to this, she didn't really care anyway.

However, the image of Lu Fei stepping forward when the men in black attacked earlier could not be erased from her mind.

She thought that humans hate death, and Lu Fei still wanted to live well.

So Lu Fei cannot be included in her plan.

Jian Anning thought about this, and then said, "I have nothing left to bet on. You can ask your people to take him away."

Wu Dong burst into laughter and said, "You've already lost everything you had, but he hasn't. How can I let go of this piece of fat meat?"

Jian Anning looked indifferent and said softly, "Your opponent is me, he just came with me."

He then raised his eyes and stared at Wu Dong, saying, "Or are you going to go against your words here?"

Being stared at by those eyes, Wu Dong had an inexplicable illusion, that is, Jian An Ning had seen through her completely, seen through the operating rules of this place, and seen through what this place really was.

But if Jane An Ning really saw through it, how could she lose to her?

Wu Dong thought about it for a while and finally did not break his promise.

Lu Fei was escorted out of the magnificent building by several men in black, while Jian An Ning was taken to the other end of the building by other men in black.

The graceful figures of the dancers can still be seen in the corridor, the sounds of stringed instruments are endless, and even the fragrance lingers for a long time.

Until Jane Anning was brought to an equally magnificent door at the end of the corridor.

The men in black formed a hand seal and opened the door. Behind the door was a darkness completely different from the bright lights and feasting in the corridor.

Jane Anning was pushed in, and then the door behind her was closed heavily. The men in black who were escorting her did not enter.

Jane Anning looked around. With human vision, she could not see clearly what was in the room, and there was no sense of solid ground under her feet.

She suspected that this might be a void.

At this moment, Wu Dong's figure suddenly flashed into the darkness. Perhaps because she was covered in pearls, jade, and silk, a circle of faint light was formed in the darkness.

Wu Dong looked her up and down, and soon he produced a light gauze dress from his hand, the same style as the dancer in the corridor and Le Ji.

She threw the gauze dress to Jian An Ning, her expression ferocious and terrifying, and said, "Put on this and become one of them, and make money for me!"

Jane Anning: Okay, now we know how the people in the corridor came from.

But she did not pick up the gauze dress, and only said, "I can't dance or play music."

Wu Dong sneered. It was the first time she saw a loser bargaining with her.

"Say that again."

"I won't."

Wu Dong felt a surge of anger rising in her heart. She thought to herself, she was the winner, how could the loser act like such a superior?

A long whip took shape in her hand.

Wu Dong swung the whip and hit Jian An Ning directly.

She didn't hold back at all, and a piece of Jane An Ning's clothes was torn into pieces, and blood slowly flowed from the wound.

Almost everyone who was whipped by her would become obedient.

However, Jane Anning seems to be an exception.

The bleeding wound could be seen through the torn fabric, but she seemed unable to feel the pain.

It was as if this body was not hers, and she didn't even frown.

Wu Dong was tired from fighting.

She thought to herself: How did I win such a troublesome thing?

Then he looked at Jian An Ning's expressionless face with cold eyes and said in a cold voice: "Okay, okay, if you don't accept my toast, then I'll drink the penalty wine. Since you can endure it so much, I guess your organs must be particularly useful."

After saying that, Jian An Ning was pushed out by Wu Dong and fell on the corridor full of lights and wine. The dancer closest to the door seemed to see what was happening here and her movements froze for a moment.

Wu Dong followed closely behind, summoned several men in black, and angrily ordered them, "Chop her into pieces and place them on the most conspicuous display stand."

The man in black took the order and left, dragging Jane An Ning away.

She thought: I can finally die. If she could be able to kill herself, she wouldn't have stayed in the human world for so long.

As Jane An Ning was thinking, she was dragged onto a carriage wrapped tightly in black cloth. In the carriage were not only her, but also some people who had been loaded here before.

There were both men and women, and their faces showed the same expression of despair.

This small space filled with human bodies was even quieter than the darkness before. If Jane An Ning had not been able to hear some breathing sounds, she would have thought that she was placed together with the corpses.

The men in black did something else and the carriage started moving.

This movement seemed to turn on a switch. Some people roared hysterically and punched and kicked the carriage, as if fighting back in desperation, but to no avail. Some people sobbed softly, completely unable to accept their fate.

Jane Anning looked at them silently, and the despair and pain were conveyed to her.

She could feel it, but she couldn't understand it.

Why do humans hate and fear death so much? Why are we unwilling to end our lives even though living on would only bring endless suffering? Why do we still want to change the outcome when it's already predetermined?

It was difficult to see people's expressions in the darkness, so Jane An Ning finally revealed her doubts.

The carriage began to shake, the wheels rolling over the gravel, and the chaotic noises inside the carriage made this small space seem particularly noisy.

Just at this moment, Jane Anning felt someone poking her from behind.

Then the man leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Why aren't you afraid at all?"

The voice sounded like a young female voice, probably a young girl.

Jian Anning tilted her head in the darkness and said, "But you don't seem scared."

The girl lowered her voice even more, to a level that would be inaudible to anyone without exceptional hearing, and said, "My sister sent me a message. She said she would come to save me."

"But if you're afraid, all your efforts will be wasted and you'll fail at the last moment."

Jian An Ning was a little confused and thought: Is this something that can be said casually?

Wouldn't those desperate people rush over and tear the girl to pieces after hearing such words?

The girl continued, "By the way, my name is Chu Mengxuan."

"Jane Anning," she said as usual, "why did you tell me?"

Chu Mengxuan didn't know how to describe that inexplicable feeling. After gesturing for a long time, she could only say, "Because you seem different."

And when Jian An Ning looked at her, she already understood.

Perhaps it is because God is merciful that people will receive mercy from God when they are in despair and on the verge of death, so they will temporarily have some foresight.

Jian An Ning realized that no matter how much hope Chu Mengxuan had for the sister who came to save her, that hope was destined not to come true.

Because Chu Mengxuan's death is approaching.

After a while, the swaying carriage stopped and some rustling noises could be heard inside the carriage.

Jian An Ning could feel some fluctuations in spiritual power, wondering what formation those men in black were setting up.

The next moment, dazzling light shone in from the lifted black cloth, and the men in black grabbed the people in the carriage like livestock and threw them into the formation.

The bright halo of spiritual power intertwined to form a cage that was impossible to enter or exit. No matter how the people in the cage wailed in pain, cursed, or resisted, it was of no use.

Until there was only one person left in the carriage.

That man's condition could be said to be the worst among all of them. His eyes stared blankly ahead, as if he had lost his sight, and he made almost no movements. If it weren't for the slight rise and fall of his chest, he would probably be mistaken for a corpse with his eyes open.

Several men in black were guarding the glowing cage, and the man in black who was holding the man suddenly produced a huge machete from somewhere.

Four knife strikes cut off the man's limbs, and blood flowed everywhere, leaving a mess of flesh and blood.

Those who were wailing and cursing in the cage saw this scene, and almost at the same time their voices all stopped, leaving only faint, uncontrollable sobs.

Then, the man in black used the machete to cut open the man's chest and abdomen.

Because they were so close, the person in the cage could even see the man's heart beating in his chest.

The man was not dead yet, but the man in black cut him open alive, and then produced a dagger from somewhere, cut off the beating heart, bright red lungs and other organs, and put them into a palm-sized bag with gorgeous patterns.

Many people in the cage almost wanted to vomit, but they didn't dare. Even the faint sobbing sounds disappeared, and this small world was as silent as death.

Everyone was afraid of making a noise and being picked out by the men in black, even though they would all suffer the same fate in the end.

Only Jian An Ning frowned slightly.

She had heard from her sister that humans were a very particular race, very concerned about life and death. When they died, their bodies could not be left exposed in the wilderness, and they had to leave their bodies intact.

So such behavior should be extremely cruel.

She saw Chu Mengxuan next to her covering her mouth tightly, not even daring to breathe.
