My Demon Husband Is a Snake Chapter 1155: The 108th Concubine
Previously on My Demon Husband Is a Snake...
"I bestowed upon you the Azarhan Sutra, something I spent three hundred years to find, yet you two now plot against me!!" Piao Changji, wherever he was hiding in a forgotten corner of the old mansion, his unnerving voice rebounded when he heard my declaration, "Even your demise won't quench the loathing in my soul. I desire you to yearn for death's embrace instead!"
"What do you imply? What... have you done to Xiao Li?" Clutching the Copper Key, I surged towards the source of the spiritual power fluctuations.
Curses! That treacherous spirit wields far too many decoys.
The two I eliminated previously were merely puppets. As for the voice confronting me now...
I had no certainty whether the voice bent on retribution was the genuine Piao Changji.
Due to the Soft-shelled Turtle Spirit's unique nature, Piao Changji persisted, alive despite his feebleness.
He was simply indomitable!
"Hahaha!!" Piao Changji's deranged laughter enveloped the entire ancestral home, causing my spirit to ache, unable to fathom the torment Xiao Li might be undergoing.
Wuyue, having caught up, his frigid, solemn voice reached my ears, "Isn't it simple to unravel a degenerate's desires? It's common knowledge the Soft-shelled Turtle Spirit is lascivious. He dispatched the bridal sedan to seize Chen Xiaoli; it must be..."
"Cease your words, I refuse to hear your ill omens! Wuyue, you are currently suppressed by him; make haste and depart this old house." I couldn't bear to listen further to such dreadful implications and sternly urged Wuyue to retreat.
Countless times, the memory of Qing Li's defilement by Lin Gang had replayed in my mind.
Not only was Qing Li violated, but she was also subjected to humiliation, eventually giving birth to a daughter.
The agony of it deeply afflicted me, making it nearly unbearable to confront such horrors again.
And now... could it be... that such a ghastly fate is about to befall my closest friend...
Is it truly so?
The mansion was vast, yet Piao Changji's sanctuary invariably appeared to be situated in the upper chambers, where the White Gauze drifted.
His voice, guiding me, led me to these lofts as I ascended the rickety staircase.
Wuyue, ultimately a pragmatist king, harbored no inclination for needless bloodshed or self-sacrifice.
Upon hearing my plea, he halted at the precipice, choosing not to push further.
"No... Release me... Help me, Brother Chenn!!" From the third floor of the loft, a girl's heart-rending shrieks mingled with the grating sound of tearing fabric.
Adorned in a scarlet bridal gown, amidst a multitude of antique portraits adorning the writing desk. She struggled, tears streaming down her face, unable to break free from the lecherous Soft-shelled Turtle Spirit's grasp as he tugged at her bodice. Her visage contorted in unbearable despair, she cried, "You might as well end my life, you depraved fiend. Beichen will never forgive you!"
"Su Wan, you have finally graced us with your presence. I have awaited your arrival for an eternity. Had you surrendered in Fengdu, she wouldn't bear this unfortunate fate." The perverted Piao Changji curled his lips, extended his tongue to delicately trace Xiao Li's face from brow to chin, "I wish for you to witness your friend becoming my cherished, my one hundred and eighth Concubine, all because of you."
"One hundred and eight concubines? Are you playing at being some bandit king? Ugly wretch! Even if you capture my body, my heart will forever remain beyond your grasp." Xiao Li retaliated, slapping Piao Changji and delivering a powerful kick with her long leg to his chest, "Su Wan, flee now! This monster is too powerful; do not concern yourself with me."
The impact of the slap caused Piao Changji's eyes to gleam crimson as he raised his hand, prepared to strike back.
"How can I not care? If you are violated, how will you ever marry Beichen?" I drew the Begonia Hairpin from my hair and swiftly plunged it into the back of Piao Changji's raised hand, piercing his vile appendage. "May the power to alleviate worldly suffering, revive the ailing, banish demons and evils, and eradicate wickedness manifest through Kui Gang's divine protection, responding to a thousand invocations and ten thousand summons, even appearing unbidden."
