Chapter 836: Annihilate Their Hope

"Rest assured, the pain won’t be unbearable," Wang Pei Zhi added, his tone dripping with sincerity, which turned their faces a sickly shade of green.

"Extracting your bones while you’re still breathing, tearing out your veins, draining your blood, and uprooting your very essence won’t bring about your demise," Shenlian Yingyue declared, her voice devoid of emotion, sending shivers down their spines.

"You are utterly merciless!" Fear danced across their faces like a haunting shadow.

"Did you ever consider this day would come while you plotted against my master, a day when you would face the same torment you sought to inflict upon him?" She asked faintly, allowing her enemies to digest their growing horror and embarrassment as they recoiled in trepidation.

"But we haven’t laid a hand on him yet!" They protested, desperately clinging to their innocence.

"Does that even matter? My mood is rather foul at the moment, and I find myself quite eager to inflict pain. What are your thoughts on that?" Shenlian Yingyue had little patience to reason with those who remained oblivious to their own wrongdoing, indifferent to the suffering of others.

"Submit, and we promise it will be painless. If you give us what we desire, we will ensure your release without harm, securing your survival," she echoed the very words they had used against Xiong Zi Ying.

Xiao Yun and the others exchanged dark, playful laughter. When did their master gain such a sharp tongue? She was undeniably charming.

The twenty were left gasping, nearly choking with rage as a storm of emotions surged: fear, despair, humiliation, all rolling over them in waves. They trembled violently, utterly unprepared to confront these feelings of vulnerability.

Panic consumed them, but their captors showed no signs of letting them go, even as they pleaded for mercy, just like they had treated Xiong Zi Ying without remorse.

Xiong Zi Ying’s heart swelled with warmth. He recognized that she was not inherently cruel, yet for his sake, she was willing to abandon her kindness against their mutual enemies. A bittersweet mix of happiness and guilt swirled within him.

As he watched her stand resolutely by his side, confronting her own clan as if they were strangers due to their cruel intention, he felt a profound bitterness rise in his throat. How could he and his brother have ever considered using her as a weapon against her kin for their vengeful ambitions? Shame washed over him.

"Time is short, our patience is limited, so quickly present your treasures," Xiao Nian urged, impatience heavy in her voice.

"I trust it isn’t more worthless trash like the items you previously mentioned," Tian Tian added, his voice dripping with disdain.

The twenty wore puzzled expressions, yet they clung to the hope and confidence that their clan’s wealth was beyond measure. "If you find our offerings lacking, if you release us, we can summon our masters and elders. They will provide you with resources beyond your wildest dreams!"

"Hmph!" Bing Xue snorted, disgusted by their arrogant displays. He took a step forward, casting a pointed look at his comrades, and they all seemed to grasp his intent, grinning maliciously.

The Shenlian people stood in stunned disbelief as Xiao Yun and his companions began nonchalantly devouring Divine Fruits and discarding the remnants like they were worthless scraps. The cave soon lay strewn with a multitude of these extraordinary fruits.

In a carefree atmosphere, they leisurely pulled out various artifact tools to toy with, while others casually tossed Divine Pills into their mouths as if they were nothing more than mere candies or chewing gum. Some even unfurled Purple-grade scrolls, reading them with the same nonchalance one would reserve for a cheap comic book.
