She wasn’t one to be scared off or beaten down by just a few words.
Come what may, she’d handle it. She refused to believe she couldn’t protect her little cubs.
The man was taken aback by the determination flaring in her eyes.
Then he sneered.
"You’re overestimating yourself."
Shen Yue wasn’t one to take an insult lying down. She strode back, stood before the Electric Shock Stick, and glared at him.
"You’re right, I am overestimating myself. So while I still have the energy, I’m going to give you a proper taste of torture!"
The man flinched in the water.
"What are you doing?"
Shen Yue slammed her foot down on the Electric Shock Stick’s button.
"What am I doing? I’m giving you a little jolt, to show you just how I ’overestimate myself’!"
Instantly, a massive current surged through the wires and into the water. The man immediately began to dance as if his feet were on fire!
He convulsed, his limbs flailing wildly.
The sound of CRACKLING and POPPING filled the air as sparks flew from his body, which began to emit wisps of acrid smoke.
The man didn’t last more than a few seconds before his body went rigid and he collapsed, foaming at the mouth.
Still not satisfied, Shen Yue set the Electric Shock Stick to deliver a jolt automatically every five minutes before turning to leave.
She had previously set it for once every half hour.
This time, she was going to fry him to a crisp!
As Shen Yue walked out, she surveyed the cave. She had converted it into a special electric water prison just for this man.
She knew from the start it would be difficult to make him talk, and she hadn’t really expected him to say anything.
All she wanted was to pry a few useful tidbits of information from him.
...to confirm her suspicions about the original owner of her body.
From the looks of it, the original "Shen Yue" had indeed been playing dumb all along and had offended some mysterious, powerful figure.
The identity of this powerful figure was still a mystery.
But it was clear this person had many subordinates and led an extremely secretive and powerful organization. Everyone in it was likely as formidable as the man in the water.
Their goal seemed to be to harm the original Shen Yue’s children and get revenge on her—a relentless, to-the-death vendetta.
The original Shen Yue had acted crazy and played the fool, earning herself a notorious reputation, most likely as a cover to escape this organization’s pursuit.
These were the general conclusions Shen Yue had drawn so far.
But as for why the original Shen Yue went to Beastification City and had that wild night, so coincidentally sleeping with six of her seven fiancés, leading to her exile and eventual death on Wilderness Mountain... that was something she still couldn’t figure out.
She couldn’t help but review the facts in her mind again, checking if she had missed anything.
Then, something suddenly struck her...
’Wait a minute. The man in black recognized me as Shen Yue the moment he saw my face.’
’But the original Shen Yue had been using a hideously ugly face while she was playing the fool. This man in black saw my current face and wasn’t shocked at all. In fact, he recognized me instantly. Something’s not right about that.’
’And the most crucial point of all: the original Shen Yue was diagnosed as infertile. Yet these people’s goal is to kill her children. How could they have known she was able to get pregnant?’
’What is going on? If the fertility test results were accurate, how could she have given birth to seven cubs at once?’
’Could it be... that the original Shen Yue’s fertility test results were fake?’
’Or did she know all along that she had a rare SSS+ fertility constitution?’
’Did she know from the start that these people were after her, trying to prevent her from conceiving?’
’Did she use a fake fertility diagnosis as a smokescreen, then run off to Beastification City to "borrow a seed"?’
’Then she secretly got pregnant and used her exile as a pretext to escape to the barbaric land and give birth in secret?’
’All to escape from these people??’
