"Xiao Yu, stay inside no matter what happens outside, do you hear ?"
"No, Mom, I want to stay with you."
"Where I’m going, you cannot follow. Listen to , stay here, and do not co out. And above all, do not seek revenge for !"
....
Every midnight, I wake up from nightmares. In the dream, I always return to that night twenty years ago. That night, I lost my parents, my uncle, and my father’s most trusted confidants, all because my eldest uncle wanted to seize the top position in the Feng Family.
For the so-called power, he abandoned family bonds, nearly slaughtering every close relative. Though he eventually took the helm of the Feng Family, he lacked the ability to control the various forces. That vast Feng Family fell apart in one day, and I lost my most important loved ones, forcing to grow up overnight. In the ten years that followed, I constantly made myself stronger, and my heart turned cold and hardened the day my parents died.
It took ten years to beco invincible and two more years to eliminate all those who caused my parents’ death, reclaiming the position of head of the Feng Family. As for the main culprit—my eldest uncle, I did not let him die easily. Instead, I used my thods to make him regret everything he did to my parents.
I looked down at the uncle who once pampered , with a cold smile, "I wonder if you’ve heard of an ancient punishnt, Uncle?"
Without waiting for his response, I continued, "In ancient tis, there was a punishnt called Lingchi, also known as ’death by a thousand cuts’. The prisoner would be tied with a fishing net, and then the executioner would slice off pieces of flesh like fish scales. If the executioner was skilled, the victim might still be alive after a thousand cuts. I find this quite interesting. Coincidentally, I have an unused fishing net here, Uncle, should we try?"
"Yu, I’m your uncle, you can’t do this to ! Although I wronged your parents, I never did anything to harm you!"
"Nothing to harm ? If I hadn’t hidden in the wardrobe back then, would you have spared ?"
"I..."
"No, you wouldn’t. You would have disposed of the sa way you killed my parents." I turned coldly, waving my hand to the subordinates beside , and said in a deep voice, "Do it!"
Behind , his terrified voice followed, "No, Yu, you can’t do this to ! I know you hate to the core and will not let go, but can you not give a quick death for the sake of our past ties?"
A quick death?
I curled my lips coldly. To enemies, I never grant a quick death, even if that person was once my father’s brother, my close uncle.
I turned and sat down on a genuine leather sofa, lazily leaning back while coldly observing everything that happened next. The sharp dagger cut through his flesh piece by piece, his flesh and blood dropping to the ground. His horrifying screams echoed in my ears, and I did not blink an eye.
In the past ten years, I have turned myself into a devil, making my heart harder than stone and colder than ice. Only this way can I remain undefeated, only by having no weaknesses can I avoid repeating my parents’ fate.
However, what I did not expect was that one day, my cold and hardened heart would begin to lt bit by bit because of another person.
