Chapter 346 Compassion
Chapter 346 Compassion
After listening to Zhen Chuyunfan's story, Qiu Ziyue was filled with grief, indignation, and sympathy.
She gazed at the soul within the golden light before her and asked softly:
"How do you plan to punish the couple who killed you? How do you plan to take revenge? This is your revenge, and you can decide for yourself."
The flames of revenge flickered in Chu Yunfan's eyes, yet they also revealed a hint of indifference after liberation.
"I really want to skin them alive and send them to the deepest hell."
He said through gritted teeth, "They killed my master and slaughtered my fellow disciples..."
Chu Yunfan sighed:
"But they didn't expect that my master was already prepared. Not only did he have Zhao Yuanting undergo plastic surgery to look like me,
They also injected a drug into his face that could easily cause severe side effects. They killed their master right after the surgery…”
Chu Yunfan paused for a moment, then continued:
"Now there are no people left in Lingxu Manor, but their faces will slowly rot away soon."
His face gradually turned into a hideous, desiccated corpse. Living like that was more painful than death.
After he finished speaking, his tone gradually calmed down, as if he had let go of the hatred in his heart.
"I will not seek revenge for this."
He shook his head with a wry smile.
"Let them suffer more in life than in death."
Qiu Ziyue paused for a moment, then asked:
"And what about yourself? Are you just going to wander like a lost soul forever?"
Chu Yunfan sighed softly, a hint of relief in his eyes.
"No, I plan to wander for another month until I see with my own eyes that their faces have become utterly hideous."
At that time, my soul will return to my body, and I will no longer cling to this mortal realm.
He paused, then bowed deeply to Qiu Ziyue.
"I'll have to trouble Miss Qiu to build me a grave so I can be laid to rest in peace. This is my last wish."
Looking into his determined eyes, Qiu Ziyue nodded in agreement:
“Okay, I will help you fulfill this wish. When the time comes, I will definitely build you a resting place.”
Chu Yunfan smiled slightly, his figure gradually blurring in the golden light.
"Thank you, Miss Qiu."
He whispered,
"Although this life is full of pain and regret, at least it has an ending."
As his voice faded, the room returned to silence.
Qiu Ziyue clenched her fists, secretly vowing to ensure that Chu Yunfan's wish would come true.
At the same time, that evil couple must pay the price.
Everyone watched as the real Chu Yunfan temporarily dispersed from the golden statue, as if they had just woken from a nightmare.
I couldn't help but sigh. It was such a pity that Chu Yunfan, a fine young man in the prime of his life, with good looks, character, and refined literary talent, was murdered like this.
Then, everyone turned their attention to Xiao Yuan and Zhao Yaohua.
“Kill us, I don’t want to become like that,” Zhao Yaohua said in terror.
Xiao Yuan also prayed to Li Cunxu:
"Prince Jin, please give me a quick death, considering how long I've followed you."
"Xiao Yuan, you used to be able to do it, but you can't now."
I have indeed treated you well, but you have done such a heinous thing; it is truly outrageous!
Li Cunxu responded coldly:
You not only killed Chu Yunfan, but also slaughtered his entire sect. And what about the princess's unborn child?
You sinners, so deeply sinful, are utterly unworthy to be called my guards! From this day forward, you are to fend for yourselves!
"You two despicable people! You're the ones who killed my and Ziyue's child! You'll both be fried in oil!"
Qi Yuxuan said angrily.
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Cunxu waved for his men to step forward.
"Men, tie them up to the big tree in the back garden and make them repent for Chu Yunfan!"
"Yes, Prince Jin!"
Several guards responded in unison and dragged the couple out without any mercy.
When the servants of the Marquis of Dongling learned the truth, they were all filled with righteous indignation.
They were deeply impressed by the kind and benevolent Lord Chu from before, and now that Chu Yunfan had been brutally murdered, everyone was filled with grief and indignation.
The old butler, in particular, said through gritted teeth:
"These two are utterly inhuman! Starting tomorrow, we absolutely cannot let them commit suicide."
We'll only feed them dog food and give them some water. We'll slowly torture them to avenge our Master Chu!
"Yes!"
The servants echoed their sentiments, their eyes blazing with anger, eager to make the couple taste the bitterness of misery.
In the back garden shrouded in night, peach blossoms drifted down, and the moonlight was like frost.
Zhao Yuanting and Xiao Peifeng were tied up under a peach tree, and the cold wind made them tremble.
The servants stood in a circle around them, staring at them with hatred, as if they wanted to unleash all their anger on the sinners.
Xiao Yuan attempted to defend himself:
"We...we were also trying to protect ourselves! Chu Yunfan, he simply..."
"Shut up!"
A young servant couldn't help but start cursing.
"What right do you have to talk about 'self-preservation'?"
You killed his master and senior brothers, and even impersonated him to commit atrocities! People like you deserve to die ten thousand times over!
Zhao Yaohua's face was filled with despair, and her voice was trembling with sobs:
"Please... give us a quick death!"
"happy?"
The old butler sneered.
"Do you think the people you killed can live a peaceful life? Now it's your turn to suffer. This is the retribution you deserve!"
From then on, Xiao Yuan and Zhao Yaohua were forced to eat dog food and drink foot bath water every day, causing them unbearable pain.
Meanwhile, Chu Yunfan's soul still wandered in the mortal world, silently watching all of this unfold.
He knew that he was not far from true liberation.
However, one night, Xiao Yuan and Zhao Yaohua, who were originally tied to the peach tree in the back garden, mysteriously disappeared.
Qiu Ziyue was shocked when she heard the news and immediately went to find Chu Yunfan's wandering spirit to ask about the situation.
"Brother Chu, what happened? How did that couple get rescued?"
Qiu Ziyue frowned and asked, her tone full of confusion and worry.
Upon hearing this, Chu Yunfan sighed, a hint of helplessness in his voice:
"I've also noticed some clues..."
It seems a highly skilled assassin infiltrated the Dongling Marquis's residence under cover of night and silently rescued them.
"What should we do then?"
Zhao Wanqing asked.
"However, even so, they couldn't escape the tragedy of their faces rotting. This poison was specially made by my master."
Only the disciples of Lingxu Manor knew the way to save them, but now that Lingxu Manor has been destroyed, who can save them now?
He paused, a faint smile appearing on his lips.
"Alright, let them go. After all, this kind of painful torture is more cruel than direct execution, so it's a small act of mercy on our part."
Hearing this, Qiu Ziyue was still unwilling, but she understood that what Chu Yunfan said was true.
She watched Chu Yunfan's figure gradually become transparent and said softly:
"Brother Chu, you're right. Their fate was already sealed, and we don't need to dwell on it anymore."
What are your plans next? Should you prepare to return to your physical body?
Chu Yunfan nodded, gazing into the distance:
"Yes, the time is almost up. I have witnessed their fate with my own eyes, and I have no more regrets."
The one-month deadline is approaching. I would like to ask Miss Qiu to help me fulfill my final wish and build me a grave so I can rest in peace.”
Qiu Ziyue nodded solemnly:
"Don't worry, Brother Chu, I will make all the arrangements for you. Your revenge is done, rest in peace."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Yunfan's wandering soul gradually disappeared into the darkness, leaving only a faint light that dissipated in the night sky.
The whereabouts of Xiao Yuan and Zhao Yaohua remain a secret unknown to everyone.
