Chapter 127 - What a Loyal Slave
Given her current capabilities, Feng Xiupei could defeat her. However, if Feng Xiupei wanted to go up against a well-established trade house, she would have to think twice before doing anything stupid—unless she no longer wanted the Spirit Stabilizing Pill.
It was a cold autumn night. The moonlight shone on the vast land. A ghostly figure made its way through the forest amidst the howling of the cold wind. It made her look as frightening as an evil spirit.
Feng Tianlan arrived at the meeting place on time. The moment she walked into the bamboo forest, she saw Chuling tied between two bamboo plants. Her was head bowed and her clothes untidy, and there were bruises on her exposed neck—as if she had been raped.
“Chuling.” Feng Tianlan became anxious when she saw Chuling in this state and started making her way over without thinking.
When she heard Feng Tianlan’s voice, Chuling lifted her head and shook it violently as she looked at Feng Tianlan with bloodshot eyes. She was trying to tell her Miss not to come over because it was a trap.
Feng Tianlan looked above where Chuling was and saw that there seemed to be something waiting for her in mid-air, something as thin as silk. If she hadn’t read up on these things in her previous life, she might never have noticed that there was a trap. But since Feng Xiupei seemed so confident, Feng Tianlan decided to pretend that she had fallen for the trap.
Feng Tianlan smiled mockingly as she pretended that she didn’t see the trap and leaped across toward Chuling. While still mid-air, she triggered a catch of sorts. A net fell from the sky and trapped her.
Chuling made even more noise when she saw that the net had captured Feng Tianlan. Tears streamed down her face as she struggled to break free and save Feng Tianlan.
“And here I thought my older sister was brilliant.”
Immediately after the net captured Feng Tianlan, Feng Xiupei came flying out like a fairy hiding in the shadows. She landed lightly in front of Feng Tianlan. She wore a broad smile, but her eyes could not hide her deep contempt and disdain.
Feng Tianlan was trapped in the net, which tightened with every move she made. If she moved too much, it would eventually cut into her and slice her up like tofu.
This net was no ordinary net – it was a Silver Silk Net made from the silk of a Demonic Beast. Only a Spiritual Weapon could cut through it.
“I thought that you were going to continue pretending.” Feng Tianlan pretended to struggle hard in the net so that she could lower Feng Xiupei’s guard while thinking about what she ought to do next.
Silver Silk Nets were great weapons, and they were very suitable for Chuling. She decided that once she got herself out of the net and out of this place, she would keep this net for Chuling.
Feng Xiupei chuckled when she saw Feng Tianlan struggling and said, “Don’t bother wasting your energy – this is a Silver Silk Net. The more you struggle, the tighter it will become. An ordinary sword can’t cut through it.”
If Feng Tianlan hadn’t caused her to go to jail immediately upon her return, she wouldn’t have removed her mask this quickly. But she hated Feng Tianlan to the core and would not rest until she paid Feng Tianlan back for humiliating her like this.
Feng Tianlan pretended that she dared not move after hearing Feng Xiupei’s words, but her fingers were still trying to feel around the Silver Silk Net. She took a quick glance at Chuling and said, “Let Chuling go, then I’ll give you the token.”
Chuling started screaming as best as she could at Feng Tianlan. There was a rag in her mouth that prevented her from talking.
“Wow, one is a loyal master, and the other is a loyal slave.” Feng Xiupei walked over to where Chuling was tied up and tried to grab her chin, but Chuling dodged her touch. Feng Xiupei didn’t get angry and continued smiling gently as she tore open Chuling’s clothes, revealing multiple bruises all over her body.
Feng Tianlan’s eyes were filled with murderous rage when she saw how badly injured Chuling was.
“She nearly bit her tongue off to commit suicide so that she wouldn’t become a burden for you. If I hadn’t been quick enough, a corpse would have been here waiting for you instead.” Feng Xiupei pretended not to see the murderous look in Feng Tianlan’s eyes. She used her fair hand to stroke Chuling’s bruised skin. She laughed as she said, “And if you had come just a little later, she might have also lost her virginity.”
