Gei kiao came forward and grabbed her leg .
Than moving lower .He grabbed her toe and crushed it into meat paste .
"I know your father very well . That's why I am sure you can't have guts to do such things .unless there is something backing you or you were instigated by someone ."With that he looked thoughtfully at cultivation servant girl .
"I....I.....I don't... don't know her "ziyan said .
"What are you saying after she tried to save you and carried you to escape .Ahh right you must be dizzy from pain . Can't remember huh.
well Now you might be wondering .why aren't you falling unconcious.well it's because of rare pills we keep in our clan to torture our enemies ofcourse cultivatiors. Unfortunately it had to be used on you . can't let you die unless My son is done torturing you .
You are going to suffer so much pain .You will regret harming my son"A cruel smile flashed on his face .
Ziyan didn't show any strange expression.on the contrary she wondered .'so it was true .This girl was really escaping with me . yesterday.but why ?.'They didn't even properly know each other .let alone being friends.so why would she take action and risk her life '.
"I don't kkknow herrr.you are mis...understanding .The one who took me to essscape was male...male cultivator .Not female ."ziyan lied .
with that her chances of living should be more .Mortals & cultivators were different.And the treatment they received was different too .
Contrary to what she thought. Gei kiao's thought did 'nt go that way .instead his eyes were lit up .
"So there really are more likes of you .Moles in my clan .who are they tell me and your death will be less cruel "Gei kiao grabbed the cultivation servant .His fingers penetrated her shoulder.Blood came out of her wounds .
Female cultivatior gritted her teeth."There is only me .I don't know about any other .Someone sent me to protect her .If you don't want trouble falling on your head .Release her quickly and let her go .you can take your anger out on me .torture me anyway you want .just release her "
"So to say .There is no force behind you . That means there are no moles inside my clan .
And the reason you took action was . Because someone behind her asked you to save her .And you are threatening me with her backup .is that right "gei kiao said .
Female cultivatior nodded.
Gei kiao stabbed her with dagger .
Blood started coming out of her body .turning the floor red .
"Well now that leaves you on suspicion .who is behind you .Rather who contacted you in the years you were staying in my clan .Did you send information outside .what is your method to contact .You have never left the clan .so you cannot send it from outside."
"I don't know .I also don't know who wants to protect me "Ziyan was stunned too .she didn't know she was being protected by someone for 3 years .she had no idea .
But come to think of it . The process of her getting hands on poisons was somewhat easy .when cultivators were considered in picture .
Truthfully she also wanted to know who wanted to protect her .
The people coming to her mind were her family.mother & brothers .
But they were also the first to be eliminated.
They were just weak people .They might haven't even survived the first war .let alone having the capability to sent someone for her protection.
But she also didn't knew anyone outside other than her family .Which might be dead .
She never believed it though and always hoped she could meet them one day .
"Just kill me I don't know anything."Ziyan said .
"Death is mercy .I won't give to someone easily who severely hurt my son so badly .
Displirian torture her Till she spits out everything."
"Father I was waiting for this .let me instruct displirian on how to torture her "Gou kiao asked .
"Ok.Remember to make example of it .so no one dares to do it again"gei kiao nodded.
"Displirian let's play chop-chop on her . Let's see who can make small cuts on her .And make her think living as hell .Drag her before me "Gou kiao smiled viciously.
Soon ziyan was removed from hanging and brought in front of gou kiao .She gritted her teeth to stand up but couldn't lift herself .
"Bitch how does it feel to kneel infront of me .but even if you are going to ask for forgiveness there won't be any .All you can do is scream in pain."Gou kiao grabbed her face as he showed her small knife .He swored it to make hell for her .There was no one he hated more than her .
Ziyan spat out a clot of blood hitting gou kiao's face .
"You lowly Bitchhhh."gou kiao raised his knife and stab at her arms .
"Ohhh....uuuoooo"Ziyan closed her mouth . forcefully shut her scream off .
Displirian also grabbed a Tooth edged knife and made a cut on her Elbows .There was no one better at torture in Kiao clan other than displirian.
He was a cruel man .who liked to punish & torture others .many servants died under his hands .As he tortured them heavily.He was always waiting for servants , mortals,criminals ,theives to arrive at his den .where he could punish them to his heart's content .
"Stop . don't do anything to her "came a low voice from female cultivatior which was ignored by them .
They made cut after cut on her limbs .Soon her limbs were full of bloody lines .But ziyan didn't scream like they expected .They took it as challenge.They were waiting for her to scream .
For gou kiao there would be nothing more enjoyable at the current than to hear her screams.
Displirian enjoyed screams because of his cruel nature .
Gei kiao was paying attention to female cultivatior.
"Why shouldn't we torture her .we can do what we want .Could be her backup is something notable.who is he or she "
"Yes Don't torture her or you will regret it .Her backup isn't something you can make angry "
Gei kiao laughed.
"Someone we can't make angry?.is he/she someone from large kingdoms or is it from middle kingdoms ."He named large & middle kingdom.Because he thought Her backup was individual and not a force or organization.
Only someone from large kingdom can be threat to them .Even someone from middle kingdom will only be a half threat .But if she were to say someone from large or middle kingdom.He wouldn't beleive her single bit and just kill her .
That was because he knew ziyan's father and his father's father .
Infact The village outside existed . Because it was made up of retired servants from kiao clan . people from that village had been servants of his clan for long time .Even he didn't know for how long that was the case .
Basically the village outside had been their place to farm servants.Villagers only knew some other villages and their kiao clan .And that was their circle .Their boundary.
As for his clan .
Their clan had only been active in small & middle kingdoms .
In the small kingdoms they were like overlords.
And in the middle kingdoms .They were careful to never offend anyone .
In the large kingdom they had never visited .So there wasn't even 1% chance of offending someone.
" Neither.He is from Small kingdom .it's her brother and he is..... ."
"Hahaha so you are telling me it's her brother who is backing her .Those kids who were small & weak back than .Sent you to protect her .it's really surprising.But come to think of it who else will she knows .
other than her family .And here i was worried about some potential enemy "gei kiao laughed .In his joy he didn't hear her voice which mentioned 'evil general'.
"Will they come to revenge her .Do they know about her that she is being tortured and will soon die"Gei kiao asked .
"Yes.I sent message about Her marrying as concubine .They should be coming anytime today .It was unexpected that heir will took action the day before .otherwise You will all be regretting torturing her like this "
Gei kiao laughed even more unceremoniously.He waved to stop gou kiao & displirian.
"Haha kid did you hear who is backing you .
It's your brother who sent her to protect you .Not only that He should be coming today to save you .haha .
Good thing he is coming .I can just deal with you all . without worrying about future ."
Even in extreme pain .ziyan heard clearly.
He mentioned her brother right .
Her brother was protecting her indirectly and he is coming too To protect her .
Ziyan lifted her pained face to gaze at female cultivatior.She lifted her chin as to ask 'is this true '.
When she saw female cultivatior nod .
She was about to cry in tears .But she controlled herself .
'Her brother is alive .so her family is alive .They survived the harsh war before.And they are alive even now .Mother , brother , little brother '.
"displirian I order you .They mustn't die before the day ends today .For that use any pills or elixir in the clan .Meanwhile The show must go on .Make example of what happens to who go against us ".Gei kiao said & was about to leave .
"Fatherrr"Gou kiao said in his wheel chair gazing at his lower body .
"Don't worry .I will find a cure for you "gei kiao said as a formality.But in his heart.He knew his favourite son was now waste .In his heart importance of gou kiao had already been lowered . Especially because he was in this condition because of his lust & mortal woman .He was really incapable.
I have to choose new heir .he thought .
Gou kiao took it as guarantee that He would become perfectly fine .
Not realising he had already lost his position and importance in others heart .
From now on he was just one of 8 sons of gei kiao .Even among them he was ranked last .
Gou kiao was happy but soon his eyes turned chilly & cold when he looked at ziyan and female cultivatior.
Father said they must stay alive today .so be it .
"Someone bring honey and food for insects ."Gou kiao smiled evil .
Displirian was the first to realise what was going to happen. .
" 3rd young master .you are so good at this .even better than me ."
....
An hour later & half later.
All kind of insects were crawling on ziyan & female cultivatior's body .
There were nearby some dogs .who were licking at her cut wounds .She had no strength left to do anything.She just wished she could fall Unconscious.But everytime she was about to A pill will be fed to her .Making her stark awake .
At first the licking was painful indeed .But as the saliva in her wounds increased .The pain was somewhat lessened.
Even the insect feed .she had gotten used to it .The feeling of Thousands of insects crawling on her looking for food . sometimes biting her flesh .
But the one thing she hadn't gotten used to was honey seeping into her body .
In order to look for honey .Insects would go inside her body .biting & chewing on her flesh .And digging in .Many small wounds turned into big because of this .
She didn't know if the female cultivator was still alive or not .
Death would have better she thought .
It is good if she is already dead.
Sounds of hooves sounded .
Thud!
Thud!
Thud!
Suddenly there were screams around her .
She could her body falling on floors with thud!.
Panicked voices of others .
Sharp noises of wind howling .
The peircings sounds of arrows .
Sounds of people running to escape .
The clangs! Of weapons striking each other .
She could tell situation around her was chaotic .she didn't know what was happening.But whatever was happening was good .she also didn't mind dying in this chaos.
Soon there was eerie silence .
She was lifted by someone.whoever it was hugged her strongly .The chest of the person was toned with muscles .Broad chest ,toned pectoral muscles.A male .
Ziyan opened her eyes a little . Frantically the gaze she met was peircing and frightening.It was chilly & cold .Yet somehow soft on her .
"Sleep tight today . Tomorrow is a happyday to enjoy sis."The expression of speaker didn't change .yet somehow made her relax .
"Brother ?"
"Hm"
She closed & eyes to sleep .But her tears started coming out .Wide strong hands petted her back .but soon she was passed on to someone else .
