After three days he was sent to the hall with a copy. His face turned pale because he hadn't eaten or drunk in these three days.
The sun was blazing. He went to the corridor and saw all the disciplines were dressed in the robes of the sect, the robes were yellow in color with a light touch of blue, and the armor was also in blue color it was almost like black, their trims and hems were in shiny silver.
All the Elders were sitting in one place, but Feng Yi was sitting alone, he did not want to sit with the crowd.
Lei Zhen knelt down and listened long book of hundreds of rules by the Elder of law.
"Lei Zhen, a discipline of Elder Yi, disregarded the teachings and violated the rules of the sector. He disobeyed the rule, of nineteen, twenty, and thirty-one. He shall be punished with a hundred strikes of the cane, and a month of grounding to reflect on his mistakes. Do you have anything to say in defense?"
"No" he looked at Feng Yi from a distance.
Feng Yi's face was colder than snow and frost. He is sitting quietly, too far from Lei Zhen to see the expression on his face.
Taking a deep breath, he said " No, nothing to say"
Soon after a while the punishment started. His legs went weak, blood dripped from his mouth, and teary misty eyes looked at his shizun while sniffing in pain.
This pain is nothing for him. The actual pain he felt was heartbreak. He loved this physical pain, not only he did not plead but also he did not make a single sound.
All the disciplines sitting there were shocked by his self-esteem. So powerful, if that person is someone else they might cry and plead for mercy. But Lei Zhen wanted himself to feel the pain so he could not feel it in his heart.
He was only looking at his shizun. Soon when his punishment was finished, he could not walk properly. He was sent back to his room to reflect on his mistake for a month, and his cousin came forward and helped him with other discipline.
At nightfall, he was lying on his back like half dead, he grabbed the bedding while imagining his shizun face.
The voice again came into his mind. His back was hurting but when the voice became clear in his mind. Tears roll down his cheeks.
"He does not want you. He is going to marry An Huan again and here you will lay down in the bed while imagining him…hahaha, come to me. I am the only one, who can help you. No one wants you, no one cares about you. Lei Zhen oh Lei Zhen, it's a pity, you work hard for everyone but what they will do for you? Leave you at your worst. Don't forget about your past experiences."
"I am still here, just one call and I will make you the world's number one"
After saying these words, the voice in his head disappeared completely.
He did not pay attention to a voice. He remained silent, tears were rolling down continuously. While thinking about it, I will wait. I will wait for someone to come, love me, and care about me. He felt it was very hard to breathe.
A month went fast, he was finally free. His wounds did not hurt him anymore. During this period of time, no one came to his room. Three other disciplines have rooms opposite each other, but Lei Zhen's room is far from theirs.
Mount Huashan, has twelve peaks, the largest peak is called Chang'an Peak while the smaller peaks are pavilions for the Elders to live. Feng Yi lived at the top of the mountain, Fenghuang Pavilion. All of his disciplines live near his pavilion.
When Lei Zhen came outside. He saw his shizun standing near the tree with his hands on his back, looking at something. When Lei Zhen came near Feng Yi knew someone moving toward him, so he turned his back to look.
Lei Zhen was expecting some kind words from his shizun mouth but who knows?
When their eyes met. Feng Yi quickly withdrew and lowered his long lashes. And said "We are going down the mountain, go quickly and arrange a carriage"
He did not explain anything about where they were going nor did he ask about his injuries.
When Lei Zhen heard this, his heartache. Shizun did not ask about how I spent my days and nights in pain. He is really ruthless. Worse than the beasts I had in my previous life. At least my wild pets asked about my injuries and cared about me.
But he knew they were going Mirror Lake because of the exorcism and formations his shizun created a month ago. The reputation of their sector increased, and a lot of disciplines and elders wanted to join their sector. While common people love to give them tasks.
He made a 'hm' sound, lowered his eyes, and went to the Chang'an hall together for permission to leave as soon as possible.
An Huan and An Zhi were already waiting in the hall but Li Sheng was missing. He was sick a few days ago while cultivating and his body was exhausted. His blood and qi were too weak, he was bedridden and taking blood-replenishing pills.
Soon after they got permission to use a carriage, they walked down the mountain and left the Chang'an peak. Feng Yi was sitting with Lei Zhen. While An Huan was sitting in front of him with her brother.
Mirror Lake was not too far from their sector, but it still took dozens of miles to reach there. It was already evening time when they arrived. This Lake contains a century of old rusty Mirror. If you look at it while performing the exorcism, it will send you into an illusion.
But they have to kill the demon queen here. Which is causing trouble, the village is also known as Lake city. It has four-two lakes, one of the most dangerous lakes is known as Mirror Lake.
In his last, knowing of the danger he went into an illusion. And his master saved him. In that illusion, he meets a demon who is like a dragon and takes the shape of his shizun to seduce him.
But later his shizun came to his rescue, and Lei Zhen was poisoned near to being blind.
He had a gloomy face on the way towards the top. He will not make the same mistake but he will definitely do something else just to take revenge on him. His heart was still aching, he wanted to restrain himself, but it was not in his control. The love he has for his shizun is deep in his heart and lungs making it difficult to suppress.
He feels like he will die if he can't get his shizun love in this life. But he will respect him as his shizun because nothing like his past life had happened. Till now he can respect him but fuck this respect as well.
His mood becomes worse and worse while his shizun inquires about the situation from the villagers.
When they entered the house, Mr.Ming was lying on the bed. But when he saw the group of cultivators. He straightened up himself and shouted loudly
"Gods, immortal brothers you. You finally came"
Feng Yi said "I want to know the situation in detail"
Ming felt like, his lifeless body got a life when he saw them.
Feng Yi stands near the lusty person. He doesn't like to ask about others' health. He just came here to complete his task and after completing he will leave. Ming had too many mistresses and they went missing day after day
Lei Zhen was listening to the same lines he already knew the situation but still had to listen patiently.
Later, the group met the woman who was standing and crying pitifully. Feng Yi doesn't like to give shoulders to random people and as same goes for Lei Zhen, he doesn't like pity actors. An Huan is a soft-hearted girl so she gives her hot tea.
Feng Yi asked directly "Did you find something suspicious? When the women got missing."
"No, nothing suspicious at all, last night we were playing chess together in the garden. She said she was tired and went back early. While others were with me. After that in the morning, we saw demonic fog near her room and she wasn't there at all"
While telling all of this, she cried.
"She came here just two months ago, but she was already pregnant"
The man who is sitting suddenly stands and added
"There's only one thing, every woman who is pregnant goes missing" his eyes were red like he had not slept for several days.
He was anxious because he only had one daughter from his legal wife but he wanted a son as well so he had too many mistresses.
His daughter was standing with her mother, she was the same age as Lei Zhen. And was looking at him subconsciously.
Feng Yi followed her gaze and snorted coldly."Let's go to her room and check if we can get any clue"
His daughter came forward and smiled at Lei Zhen" I will lead the way toward her room"
When they reached the room, the black demonic fog was nowhere to be seen. Even Feng Yi's cultivation was too high but he could not find any fog. But his other senses were working, he could smell the demonic fog.
In their group, only Lei Zhen was able to see the fog clearly. He said "Shizun the fog here is too dense, I don't feel like it's a small demon. I'm afraid that demon have high cultivation"
Others were stunned when they heard Lei Zhen's conclusion. But Feng Yi looked at him expressionlessly and asked" How could you say that there is a demonic fog, while we can not see it anymore we can only smell it"
Lei Zhen was dumbfounded. He can clearly see the demonic fog but can not describe how!
But in his past life, he could see the fog but did not make any comments fearing that he might say something while others would make fun of him. He doesn't want to become a laughingstock, but in this life, he wants to improve himself. He doesn't like to study and always gets punished by his shizun, but how others can't see it and I can?!
He was confused and said "Shizun I can sense it, and I can lead the way from where this fog coming from"
While saying this he added
"Shizun my nose is very sensitive of course I can not see it but I can smell it"
Feng Yi did not say anything and let him lead the way. But when they were walking Mr. Ming's daughter Ming Qiao hurriedly came forward and tugged the sleeve of Lei Zhen and said "Be careful" and smiled shyly.
Lei Zhen's mind was already confused and he didn't want to waste his breath and said angrily "Stay away from me" his eyes turned dark.
He is not such a type of person, but right now his mind is distracted because of his shizun words that they can not see the demonic mist but how could he be the only one who can see? Should I talk to shizun about this or let it be my secret?
In the past few days, he was already tired of the voice that always annoyed him. And now this sense of seeing the demonic fog and in the last life the demon realm which is under his control everything connecting but doesn't make any sense.
When she heard him say and looked into his eyes, she got scared and took a few steps back, smiling bleakly.
Feng Yi and others don't have any idea what happened to him. But they were not going to stay there for long so they did not ask him. Before leaving Feng Yi made a protection barrier and left with his discipline.
On the way, the demonic fog was getting stronger and stronger others could sense it easily. Soon Feng Yi can see the demonic fog as well.
They went straight towards the Mirror Lake. When they reached there, it was night time and the red moon was hanging in the sky.
For commoners, this Lake was so beautiful and peaceful, but for cultivators, they could sense the hidden dangers inside the lake.
Feng Yi told An Huan and An Zhi to form a barrier so no demon could escape and told them to be careful. There might be traps or illusions that can be used to kill you.
Soon both formed a big barrier. And they were standing while holding their swords.
Lei Zhen was holding his sword as well but his mind was not working at that time. He was standing blankly. He did not listen to any of the warnings of his shizun.
Soon there was a sound behind the curtain of the waterfall. Lei Zhen heard it and told his shizun
"It was the scream of the women and the sound of the child. But this can't be the woman, who was kidnapped a few days ago because she was a month pregnant"
So might be there a lot of women behind the curtains, who are already pregnant and they have to go there to check carefully.
When Feng Yi heard this, his thoughts were exactly the same but he stayed silent.
Soon the scream got louder and louder and the child's crying was getting clearer and clearer. He doesn't have time to praise his discipline.
They went there together.
