Chapter 351: Breathing corpse
Hey, do not change your mind about joining Justice Affairs. If you do, I will ask Wei Jiayi to tie you up." She threatened.
Gao Lan Mei averted her gaze away from Ma Fei Hong. "That sounds dirty." Whispering under her breath silently as she felt her face burned from embarrassment.
"Hehe. Stop playing around! Start working!" Ma Fei Hong exclaimed suddenly.
Shaking her head, Gao Lan Mei continued, "Deacon Ma, tell everyone that there is a payment for them to enter the safety chambers."
"Huh? Payment?" Ma Fei Hong asked dumbfounded. "What kind of payment?" She as guardedly.
"Anything valuable. They can pay using their soul too." Gao Lan Mei answered nonchalantly.
She continued to crouch down at the entrance of the chamber they are in, her back facing Ma Fei Hong, thus the deacon is not able to see the expression on her face.
"Eh? Hahaha!" Ma Fei Hong burst out laughing out loud finding what Gao Lan Mei stated to be funny. "That is a very funny joke."
"Mmm." Gao Lan Mei did explain herself further. In honesty, she is not joking.
...
Mount Hua, Justice Affairs Station, Underground Prison
Li Huan can smell the sickening stench of the place, a combination of urine, manure, blood as well as the smell of rotting flesh that she almost gagged.
She can also hear the hear the anguish sounds of begging to no one in particular. Wails of hopelessness, that also reflects what she is feeling at that moment.
Li Haun wants to die, but she is restrained to even do so. Her mouth is opened wide by a tool, keeping her teeth from biting off her tongue so she can die from too much blood loss.
The prison is dark on most part as there are no windows preventing sunlight to even go in. The only light that gives the prisoners are the lanterns that are hanging in the middle each cell.
Li Huan just wishes that there is no lantern inside her own cell. If she needs to rot in darkness much better. With the mirror across her prison cell,
She can clearly see how both her hands are raised on top of her head, chained to the wall. That also goes for her feet.
The red robes that she was wearing look like a tattered rug, holes, and cuts everywhere that may look decent if not with them on her skin.
She can endure it even though she restrained, but Li Huan just cannot look further on the mirror.
Why? Because across her is a large mirror, allowing her to clearly see how her face looks at that moment.
Li Huan closed her eyes multiple times, enduring to not look at her self. Gone is the woman that is considered one of the most beautiful in the Shizi Empire. Her bare face now is clearly a one that can never be considered beautiful.
The wounds that are still there when she met the expert, plus the burns from her fight during the royal challenge arena, are clear proof that her face is already destroyed and since she is already a prisoner of Justice Affairs, Li Huan knows that there is no more hope for her.
Hope to get everything back or to take revenge on all the beings that caused her fall. Especially Gao Lan Mei!
In her head, she had cursed Gao Lan Mei multiple times. Cursing her of misfortuned, to a slow and torturous death.
Every wound is a reminder of what Gao Lan Mei had done to her earlier. How she was disgraced and humiliated in front of everyone! She can remember everything clearly!
The pain that she is feeling is also a reminder that she is still alive, but just a like a breathing corpse.
Li Huan is silently begging for another chance to live and she swears to it only to kill Gao Lan Mei, even if she needs to sell her soul to a demon!
