Chapter 121: This King Will Spoil Her For Life
The War King's heart suddenly tightened.
Was she tortured back then?
He didn't know, and no one told him.
Twelve looked at the War King's suddenly stiff expression, the curve of his lips became more vicious, and his tongue licked his lips like a venomous snake: "It seems you don't know."
"Tell me, what kind of torture did she suffer?!" The War King frowned, with a sudden surge of hostility in his eyes. He grabbed Twelve's collar and pushed him hard against the wall.
"Have you heard of the Thousand Thorns Punishment?" Twelve's sinister expression revealed a sinister tone that was beyond words. "It's a punishment where you're whipped a thousand times with thorns, all barbed ones."
He seemed to recall the situation at that time, his cheeks twitched slightly, but his eyes became more excited.
"One blow of the bramble, blood and flesh flew everywhere. That scene, ugh."
Twelve looked at the pain in the eyes of the War King, and raised the corners of his lips even more sinisterly: "Why, are you feeling sad?"
"Not only that, the most terrifying thing about this kind of punishment is that it's impossible for a living person to survive the thousand thorns."
"Often, before a hundred thorns are applied, people are reduced to skeletons. This is the first time anyone has been subjected to the thousand thorns punishment in the Great Wilderness Mountain. So they don't know the severity of the punishment. The first time, Ling was only lashed with thirty thorns before he was torn to pieces."
"They then threw her into the Spirit Blood Pool to nurse her back to health. After seven days, they continued the execution. Later, they mastered the technique, using fifty thorns at a time. It took a full year to complete her punishment."
The War King couldn't help but loosen his grip on Twelve's collar, feeling a sharp pain in his heart.
"Are you heartbroken?" Twelve's smile was sinister and he grabbed the War King's collar. "You weren't there, so you didn't see Zero's flesh and blood being torn away."
“It’s truly spectacular.”
"In order to make an example of her and warn everyone, Ling was executed in public. It was then that I realized she was actually a girl."
Twelve licked his lips: "Under what circumstances can I know that she is a girl?!"
He could never forget the Yama Palace in the Great Wilderness Mountain, where everyone in the training camp was forced to watch the execution in utter silence.
The girl, covered in blood and flesh, stood like a sharp arrow. Her clothes and flesh were torn off, but she stood there fearlessly with her head held high, her dark eyes shining brightly.
She just spat contemptuously at the executioners who were so high and mighty as to want her to bow down.
Throughout the whole process, he never asked for mercy.
He also did not admit his mistake.
"Either you kill me or you won't. If you don't kill me today, I will slaughter all the dogs in the Great Wilderness Mountain tomorrow!"
This is what she said when she was being tortured.
A prophecy.
"Jun Wuzui, why are you leaving and leaving her alone?! Do you know how many people you have offended in the past? Once you leave, so many people will be waiting to settle the score with her." The vicious resentment in the twelve eyes surged like a tide, so strong that it was frightening.
The War King's face turned pale, as if he had been hit hard, and he no longer had the ferocity and momentum he had just had.
he does not know.
Ji Xue approached under an alias, and neither of them revealed their identities, so they never discussed the events of the past. Master Huo also never mentioned anything, and as for the other people in the Great Desolate Mountain, they all kept their distance from the War King, so he would not know.
So, when he finally saw the opportunity to escape, the War King acted decisively, not knowing that someone behind him had intercepted his pursuers.
In fact, he and Ling had discussed escaping. He wanted to invite her to join him, but Ling refused with a smile, "You can escape if you want to. But if you include me, you will never be able to escape."
"Let's make a pact. Whoever gets the chance to escape will escape. The farther the better, and we'll never look back."
Zero had also made this agreement with him.
Although it was an agreement between the two of them, they both knew that only Eleven would have a chance to escape.
Ling is a test subject that many people in the Great Wasteland Mountain are paying attention to. She is the last remaining spirit in the Great Wasteland Mountain. They will never allow her to escape.
Finally, during the sacrifice at the Great Wilderness Mountain, Master Huo rebelled and Eleven saw an opportunity. Zero also took advantage of the situation and deliberately provoked Twelve, tacitly creating trouble to give Eleven an opportunity to escape.
Zhan Wang thought that this was the limit of what she could do. He didn't expect that Ling would dare to help him stop the pursuit. Didn't she know that she would be convicted as an accomplice and punished?
"Jun Wuzui, I heard that when she blocked the musket for you, she said she didn't owe you anything." Twelve sneered, her fox eyes filled with resentment: "She never owed you anything!"
"You left the Great Desolate Mountain and became the God of Killing, the War King of Dongchu, while she endured the Thousand Thorns Punishment for a full year."
"Afterwards, she was targeted by a group of disgusting and despicable people. If she wasn't strong enough, she wouldn't have been able to survive until she reached the age of 15 and awaken her spirit race's original veins."
"And if it wasn't for the awakening of her Origin Pulse, do you know what would have happened to her?!"
The War King's heart was shattered into pieces by Twelve's words, and his eyes went dark. He experienced the same pain as Zero had experienced in the past.
But looking at Twelve's sinister and resentful expression, he finally confirmed one thing: "You like her."
boom--
This time it was Twelve who was struck by lightning. This sentence seemed to ignite all the confusion and anxiety in his heart, and he finally understood where these emotions came from.
It turns out that I like it.
No wonder.
He glanced at the War King provocatively, with a cold and evil smile on his face: "Why, I can't like it?!"
"Eleven, after you left the Great Wasteland Mountain, I was the one who stayed with her. You stayed with her in the Great Wasteland Mountain for five years, but I stayed with her for more than five years."
"If I hadn't secretly helped her, she would have turned into a pile of dirt somewhere long ago."
Twelve still feels uneasy when thinking about the past.
"Thank you."
The two short words "War King" choked Twelve's remaining words. He stared at the War King with wide eyes.
The War King looked at him deeply and thanked him again earnestly: "Thank you very much."
"Thank you?!" Twelve couldn't help but explode: "Why should you thank me? I didn't do that just for you to thank me!"
"Why should you thank me on her behalf?"
"She will be my Princess Zhan." The Zhan King spoke lightly, and just this one sentence made Twelve speechless.
"Based on the thirty rules I just promised her."
"As long as we spend the rest of our lives together, I will love her for the rest of her life."
The War King's words became more and more confident, and his words were full of strong confidence and arrogance, which powerfully crushed all the unwilling shouting of the twelve.
His collar was still held in Twelve's hand, but he stood straight and tall, with an intimidating aura, revealing the condescending manner of a superior.
"Dissatisfied?"
"Then hold it in."
"I believe that if you were able to hold it in before, you can do so in the future." The War King's words were cold and indifferent, and they were meant to kill people.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have known Twelve's intentions until now.
"Holding it back?" Twelve's tone was full of sarcasm: "Are you afraid that I will argue with you?!"
"Heh." The War King sneered, without responding, but his eyes were somewhat arrogant. Fighting was impossible; no one could compete with him.
Anyone who wants to fight can die first.
"You are so confident, aren't you afraid that she will find out that you approached her deliberately?!" Twelve approached the War King and spoke in a vicious voice.
"Ji Xue was killed by Zong Kui, so he must hate betrayal."
