Zuo Shangchen nodded then shook his head again. His face was full of anxiety and it looked like he wanted to say something to Gu Ruoyun. However, his throat was blocked up and he could not make a sound.
Gu Ruoyun did not leave room for idle chit chat as she placed her hand on one of the bone spurs holding Zuo Shangchen to the stone pillar. She then took a deep breath.
“Evildoer, you must endure this. I will bring you home very soon!”
Rip!
After Gu Ruoyun had spoken, she pulled forcefully and the bone spur on his palm was pulled out, staining her robes red.
Zuo Shangchen let out a muffled groan. His mischievous features were now entirely white. Who would have thought that this once magnificent and peerless evildoer would reach such a sorry state…
Gu Ruoyun could not help but feel a pang in her heart.
“There are three more. I just need to pull out these bone spurs and we can leave. Here’s a pill, you should take it. It can help to stop your bleeding.”
Zuo Shangchen was startled for a moment before he opened his mouth to swallow the pill. However, his eyes had remained fixed on the man behind Gu Ruoyun the entire time. The urgency in his eyes grew thicker and thicker…
Gu Ruoyun did not seem to notice his eyes as she grabbed another bone spur and pulled forcefully. It came out along with a bit of flesh and fresh blood also spilled out in an instant. Anyone who saw this would feel the immense pain as well.
Zuo Shangchen gritted his teeth bore the pain. He also tried very hard not to groan again! However, pulling out the bone spurs was still less painful than when they had been hammered into him…
He has already endured an agony which was worse than death, what else does he have to fear?
“There are two more. Evildoer, my brother is waiting for you at home.”
Gu Ruoyun even brought up Gu Shengxiao’s name to help Zuo Shangchen bear the pain. She knows that at this moment, only Gu Shengxiao could ignite this man’s willpower!
Indeed, upon hearing Gu Ruoyun’s words, Zuo Shangchen’s eyes lit up. He then nodded and mouthed the words, “Continue.”
Even though he could not verbalize the word, Gu Ruoyun had understood it.
Her hand landed on the bone spur at his ankle.
The person who had nailed Zuo Shangchen to this place was far too cruel. These four spurs had pierced right through his bone. One could imagine the agony he has had to endure! She does not know how Zuo Shangchen had managed to endure such agonizing torture.
Perhaps he had refused to be resigned to his fate!
He had refused to accept that he would not be able to see Gu Shengxiao safe and sound before his eyes! Hence, he had endured the torture through sheer willpower.
Rip!
Gu Ruoyun pulled out another bone spur and Zuo Shangchen’s expression became even paler. His lips were now bleeding from being bitten through. He staggered and looked as if he would collapse at any moment.
“There’s one more left, it’s the last one!”
Gu Ruoyun took a deep breath and gave Zuo Shangchen another pill before turning her gaze to the bone spur on his other ankle. Her hand trembled slightly but she managed to catch hold of the bone spur in the end.
“Mmph…”
As the last bone spur was removed, Zuo Shangchen could not help but groan once again. His entire being then crumpled downwards, landing coincidentally on Gu Ruoyun’s body.
“Evildoer.”
Gu Ruoyun’s face paled from the shock. She then hurriedly took out another pill and placed it into Zuo Shangchen’s mouth.
Thanks to the healing powers of so many pills, Zuo Shangchen’s body finally recovered. However, the blood all over his body still showed the abuse he had endured over the past several days.
