Chapter Twenty One Betrayal And Love
Xiu Luo villa, Lian Yu hallâs prison.
Dusky lighting illuminated the dark interiorâs general situation. A large wall was filled with various torture weapons. Nearby, a petite body was chained to a strange iron controlling mechanism. Only the personâs wrist was hooked to the machinery, their other limbs werenât supported. Although there werenât any movements of torture, this type of hanging still caused people extreme pain. It was very possible that the person could die of pain three days later. The personâs clothing was ragged and messy, their long black hair was damp and clung to their face, covering their features. On their exposed skin was threads of red whip marks, it looked to be an exceptionally tragic sight. Underneath the person were a pile of corpses that reeked of blood, causing people to feel nauseous.
Five meters away from the torture instruments was another scene. On immense, glistening jade benches were two beautiful, languid males that seemed even more remarkable than the jade. The purple eyed male had on black clothes, hatred was on his delicate and enchanting face. The green eyed male had on snow, white clothes, he strongly contrasted against the green eyed male. But, his pure lotus-like features held the same ice cold cruelty. Indifference shown in his eyes, which held a thread of desperation.
âQing Yi, youâre still not speaking?â Dangerously narrowing his enticing, purple eyes, the strictness on Xue Yungeâs face deepened.
âI, I wonât say anything. You, you should kill me!â Weakly opening her mouth, Qing Yi expended great effort to raise her head, her eyes were stubborn.
âHeng, I wonât kill you because youâre someone Yi Yi cares for. Even though we donât let her care about anyone else apart from us, youâre certainly an exception. Who told you to first become acquainted with Yi Yi, we can only say that we had bad luck. But, we canât let you off just because we wonât kill you. Youâve already seen Ren being tortured, Iâll let you feel the same pain he felt. But, you wonât lose consciousness and die!â
His cruel words caused Qing Yiâs heart to tremble and her whole body shuddered. Correct, ah, she personally saw Renâs death and Renâs suffering. That beautiful and bewitching Young Master only used his slender hand to slowly dismember Ren. First, he cut off his tongue, so that Ren couldnât even shout if he wanted to. Then, his body slowly started to fall apart and he withered away  in front of her eyes. All that was left was a pile of flesh and bones that emitted a dense, fishy smell. This caused her pain, caused her to blame herself, and caused her to give up all hope.
âQing Yi, when allâs said in done, why did you have to betray Yi Yi?â After being silent for a good while, Xue Zhuyue opened his mouth and suddenly opened his mouth.
His questioning didnât anger Qing Yi who immediately opened her mouth to say, âI didnât betray Miss! What I did was to help Miss, it let her escape from your evil clutches!â
âEvil clutches? Ha ha ha ha haâ¦â He erupted into laughter, naturally it was the constantly cold Xue Zhuyue. An expression that he had never worn before appeared, not only Qing Yi, but even Xue Yunge was started by his own didi.
âYou ignorant woman! Why would you think that Yi Yi was in evil clutches when she was with us? Why!â
Somewhat scared now, but still firm, Qing Yi seemed as if she was throwing caution into the wind and said with determination in her eyes, âYoung Masters, you are devils with your green and purple eyes. Demons in the chaotic world is an old saying, it isnât wrong. If Miss is with you guys, sheâll only get hurt! Forget about the fact that youâre Missâ blood-related gege, ah. The way you guys treat her, imprisoning her. Donât tell me that Young Masters donât understand that this is wrong? You guys and Miss will never have any results!â
âNever have any results?â Xue Zhuyue muttered and suddenly staggered, spitting out a mouthful of blood. The blood was red in color, painting a picture of death.
âYue!â
Suddenly crying out in surprise, Xue Yunge waved his big hand and Qing Yi immediately slumped, seeming to have lose consciousness. He comforted Xue Zhuyue, letting him lean against the jade chair. Resting the palm of his hand on his back, he channeled inner power into him.
âYue, quickly breath in air, donât go overboard. Youâre currently at a crucial time in your cultivation progress, how can you be so reckless with yourself!â He softly criticized, but his tone covered up his concern.
âGe, nothingâs wrong.â Weakly opening his mouth, Xue Zhuyueâs complexion was tired and sad. âJust thinking of our Yi Yi, I actually lost yi Yi! Without Yi Yi, Iâll die. Geâ¦â
Tears dropped out of his beautiful eyes. The pure, cold and lotus-like man was now so helpless, hopelessly weeping like a child would.
âGe, what can we do? Iâll truly die. My Yi Yi, I really miss her. Every moment apart hurts my bones. Why did Qing Yi have to say that, my Yi Yi, Iâll give her nothing but happiness. How could I harm her? Weâre devils, why are we devils? Donât tell me itâs because of our eyes?â
He hysterically mumbled, but the listening Xue Yunge couldnât bear it, his purple eyes sparkled with unshed tears. They were twins, they were closely knit. He could feel that Yueâs heart held so much pain because this same pain also accompanied him. But he was the big brother, he couldnât fall apart. And although Yue seemed to be indifferent, he was actually the weakest. They had gone through those dark days already. They no longer had hopes for this world. Yi Yi was the one thing they wanted. For the first time, they wouldnât be the same as before and endure the insults. They would definitely get whatever they wanted, nobody could obstruct them!
âGeâ¦â Like a lost child, he closely grasped onto Xue Yungeâs hand. âItâs truly because of our eye color right? I understand that we received so much humiliation because of this. But, didnât Yi Yi say before that our eyes were beautiful? Yi Yi wonât turn her back to us, right?â
Without rhyme or reason, he shouted out with his eyes filled with hope. His previous wounds from being abandoned, the pain from being ignored, his unstable heart didnât believe he could possess happiness. With great difficulty, his life was filled with hope again, but was it really so brittle?
âI knew ge, I knew all along. I was afraid to lose Yi Yi. Each night, if I didnât hold her, I wouldnât believe that she was by my side. For ten years, I looked at her everyday, held her everyday, kissed her, and even began to forget that I had stolen this happiness. That, one day, this happiness wouldnât belong to me anymore. Has this day come? Ge, Iâm very unwilling, but Iâm also very hopeless. Donât tell me that weâll no longer have happiness?â
âYou shut up!â
âPaâ sounded out as Xue Yunge slapped Xue Zhuyueâs face and in an instant, all was quiet.
It was as silent as death.
