Chapter 712: 714 (second part of the update)
A bone-chilling coldness enveloped Luo Yu.
Luo Yu was truly afraid. Clutching Chu Jin’s hand, she begged with difficulty, "Please, please, let... ... go..."
Chu Jin was furious. She hated being deceived more than anything and detested those who hard her family.
Chu Jin was protective and vengeful. At this mont, she genuinely intended to kill, her clear, peach-blossom eyes flashing with a cold, crimson light.
An air of wild, fierce energy exploded around her, too intimidating for anyone to look directly at her.
Luo Yu was even more terrified.
At that mont, lying on the bed, Zhao Yan’s Gu poison took effect, and her whole body writhed violently, eyes rolling back, emitting agonized howls from the bed.
This bone-eroding pain was worse than death, the re sight of it was enough to chill the soul.
Seeing this, Chu Xiu quickly approached Chu Jin, took her hand and said very calmly, "Luo Yu deserves death for her actions, but sister, you can’t kill her now. If she dies, Aunt will truly be beyond help!"
Upon hearing this, the cold light in Chu Jin’s eyes gradually dissipated, and she threw Luo Yu to the ground, walked to the bedside, and took Zhao Yan’s wrist, "Mom, how are you feeling? Don’t be scared, I’ll make you better right away."
While speaking, Chu Jin took out the Golden Needle and inserted it into Zhao Yan’s major acupoints, but it was useless. Not only that, Zhao Yan’s condition beca even more severe than before!
The wails grew even louder.
Chu Jin felt a mixture of heartache and rage, wishing she could tear Luo Yu to pieces.
Enduring the pain all over her body, Luo Yu climbed up from the ground, a hint of smug satisfaction on her lips as she said in exhilaration, "Chu Jin, I’ll tell you the truth. Nobody but I can solve this Gu worm. If you want to save Zhao Yan, kneel down and beg
right now, disable your Spiritual Power, then publicly announce I am the real Miss of the Chu Family. Lastly, give
back the position of Lady Nine, or Zhao Yan will continue to suffer like this, unable to live or die."
At the last sentence, Luo Yu’s eyes burst with a venomous and cruel light.
Zhao Yan continued to convulse on the bed with no trace of consciousness, sweating from the intense pain as if in a downpour.
Luo Yu wanted Chu Jin to taste the flavor of desperation, to watch her dearest suffer while being powerless to help—wasn’t that feeling exceptionally delightful?
Chu Jin stood up from the bed, looked down at Luo Yu with narrowed eyes, her gaze icy as an unfathomable, unlting sheet of deep ice, "This is your last chance, will you save my mother, or not?"
A formidable presence burst forth from her, stunning everyone.
Even Chu Xiu was frightened by such a display of her sister’s might.
As expected of my sister.
For so reason, Chu Xiu felt an urge to kneel before her.
It was terrifying.
Too terrifying.
Luo Yu was even more frightened, breaking out into a cold sweat. She didn’t understand what was happening to her, frantically telling herself there was no need to fear Chu Jin; there was nothing to be afraid of! A re fa??ade.
But her body couldn’t help trembling, couldn’t help breaking out in cold sweat.
Suppressing the turmoil within her, Luo Yu feigned composure and said, "I’ll also give you one last chance. Kneel and apologize or let Zhao Yan continue to suffer. Chu Jin, don’t think it’s unfair! All the things you have now originally belonged to , giving them back to
is only right!"
She’s told the lie so often, she believed it herself.
In her subconscious, Luo Yu had long seen herself as a mber of the Chu Family, the true Miss of the Family. It was all because Chu Jin took everything that belonged to her! If Chu Jin hadn’t barged in, she would never have ended up so miserably!
She had nothing left, no family, no husband, no mother-in-law, no mother, not even a brother.
Even the child in her womb beca an unwanted, pitiable creature.
Not only had she lost everything, but she was also forced to marry a one-eyed gardener, treated like a dog, tethered in a room, humiliated by the gardener, her body crawled over by rats.
She was so pitiful, why could no one sympathize with her?
Instead, Chu Jin, the instigator, mindlessly reaped all the benefits. If it weren’t for Chu Jin, she would have beco the exalted Lady Nine at that banquet.
And yet, those people, as if blinded, praised Chu Jin to the skies.
What’s so good about Chu Jin?
Chu Jin is nothing but a lowly person, soone who only knows how to steal from others.
Hearing this, Chu Xiu was almost about to explode with anger!
Luo Yu truly had no sha! Where does she get off saying such things!
She was the one who snatched what rightfully belonged to Chu Jin, and now she had the audacity to call Chu Jin the robber.
If Luo Yu had just stayed well-behaved from the beginning, caring for Zhao Yan without all her scheming, there might have been a place for her in the Chu Family. But what did she do? She’d never had good intentions from start to finish.
First, she planted a Gu worm in Zhao Yan, then tried to take Chu Jin’s place, even having servants of the Chu Family call her the Miss. The most laughable part was that she set her sights on Mo Zhixuan and even drugged him.
Ultimately, she sched her way into living with the Mo family.
A person with such a malicious heart deserved to die long ago.
"Luo Yu, how shaless can you be!" Chu Xiu couldn’t help but shout out loud.
"I’m shaless?" Luo Yu scoffed, looking at Chu Xiu, and continued, "Think carefully, who really is the shaless one! If it wasn’t for Chu Jin, would I have fallen to this level? You all forced
into this."
Luo Yu roared hysterically.
Chu Jin’s fingertips curved slightly, and a transparent rope instantly appeared in her palm. Without wasting words, Chu Jin walked over to Luo Yu, twisted her hands behind her back, and tied them to a column.
Luo Yu hadn’t even realized what was happening before she found herself immobilized, her eyes wide with horror as she said, "Chu Jin, what are you doing? I warn you, if you dare touch , Zhao Yan won’t survive!"
Zhao Yan was Luo Yu’s last trump card.
Chu Jin paid her no heed, instead saying to Chu Xiu, "Go get
the sharpest knife and a floor-standing mirror."
Although Chu Xiu didn’t know what Chu Jin was up to, she quickly prepared everything.
Chu Jin didn’t look at Luo Yu, but went over to Zhao Yan and extracted three living Gu worms from her body.
One large, two young.
Chu Jin didn’t imdiately kill these Gu worms, but placed them in a transparent glass jar.
Once inside the glass jar, the Gu worms started struggling violently, their faces hideous, too horrible to look at. Just seeing them struggle so fiercely within a glass jar made it unimaginable the pain they could cause inside a human body.
Even Luo Yu, who raised Gu worms, involuntarily averted her gaze from these three creatures.
Chu Xiu soon approached, carrying the items, "Sister, everything is ready."
Chu Jin turned slightly and said slowly, "Place the mirror in front of Luo Yu and give
the knife."
Chu Xiu did as she was told.
Looking at herself in the floor-standing mirror, Luo Yu’s face turned as white as a sheet. She didn’t know what Chu Jin had in store next and was very afraid.
Chu Jin was truly terrifying.
So, when Chu Jin approached Luo Yu with the knife, Luo Yu started begging for rcy, "Miss Chu, I was wrong, I really was. Please forgive . If you let
go now, I swear I’ll cure your mother’s illness. I swear, I won’t dare to resort to any more tricks. Please, spare ..."
Luo Yu was genuinely frightened.
"Now you know fear?" Chu Jin said with a slight smirk and a cold tone, "It’s too late! I said before you only had one chance!"
Although Chu Jin was smiling, Luo Yu could not see even a hint of warmth in her eyes.
This version of Chu Jin was utterly terrifying.
As she spoke, Chu Jin wiped the knife blade with a white cloth. The sharp blade reflected the lamplight, casting a chilling brilliance that was mirrored in Chu Jin’s eyes, making her appear even colder and sowhat wicked.
"Chu Jin!" Luo Yu swallowed hard, then proceeded, "You unfilial daughter, do you really not care about Zhao Yan’s life or death? Soone like you, a thankless wretch, is truly not fit to be anyone’s child!"
Desperate, Luo Yu attempted psychological warfare.
In truth, Luo Yu could tell from Chu Jin’s actions that she was a daughter with filial piety; she really cared for Zhao Yan, otherwise, she wouldn’t willingly call her ’Auntie’.
Knowing this, Luo Yu had made her accusation.
Chu Jin laughed softly, "After all, I’ll have you buried with my mom, so what do I have to fear? Luo Yu, I’ll make sure you experience every bit of pain my mother suffered!"
"What do you an?" Luo Yu shrank back.
Chu Jin just smiled without answering.
Luo Yu had never felt that soone’s smile could be so terrifying.
It sent chills down her spine.
"Chu Xiu, you have to persuade your sister quickly, let
go, I swear, this ti I’ll really take good care of Zhao Yan. I won’t play any other tricks. Tell her not to kill , I don’t want to die..."
Luo Yu really didn’t want to die. She was still so young; how could she die?
She hadn’t even given birth to the child in her belly yet.
That child would be of the Mo family lineage...
Chu Xiu dared not try to persuade Chu Jin. At this point, nobody except Mo Zhixuan would dare approach her, and Chu Xiu knew that Chu Jin was always soone who acted with reason. Whatever she did, she had her own rationale.
Holding the glass jar with the Gu worms in one hand and the knife in the other, Chu Jin looked down imperiously at Luo Yu and said with a faint smile, "Tell ... where should I start cutting to make it more enjoyable?"
Panic shone in Luo Yu’s eyes.
Chu Jin... she couldn’t possibly be thinking of...
She was absolutely twisted! How could she be so cruel and relentless!
Watching Chu Jin wielding the knife over her body, sketching random patterns, Luo Yu’s pupils dilated with terror as she shook her head and pleaded, "No, no, Chu Jin, please, I beg you, don’t..."
Chu Jin raised an eyebrow indifferently and said in a detached tone, "What I’ll do is slice open your skin and place a Gu worm inside. Then, the worm will burrow into your flesh, making its ho in your body, laying eggs. Every day, you’ll feel them wriggling inside you..."
Chu Jin sounded casual, but Luo Yu felt her skin crawl at the thought. She didn’t want those disgusting insects crawling inside her!
Chu Jin was twisted!
To think she could do sothing so sickening.
"You’re twisted, Chu Jin! You’re a freak, not human!" Luo Yu shouted angrily.
Chu Jin raised her brows lightly, "I’m twisted? When you used Gu on my mother, didn’t you think that was twisted? What I am doing is simply an eye for an eye. In terms of being twisted, I’m not even one ten-thousandth as twisted as you are."
As she finished speaking, Chu Jin sliced a long cut across Luo Yu’s left cheek, and blood imdiately flowed.
Chu Jin picked up a wriggling Gu worm with tweezers, "Let’s take this one; it seems very resilient." The Gu worm, attracted by the scent of blood, writhed even more vigorously.
Luo Yu struggled ceaselessly, but the more she struggled, the tighter the ropes bound her. Not only was her face in pain, but the sight itself was so frightening that she felt utterly drained.
"Don’t, don’t do this, Chu Jin, I’m begging you, please don’t do this to . I was wrong, I truly realize my mistake!" Luo Yu cried out in fear.
Chu Jin gripped her squirming chin firmly and placed the Gu worm on the wound on Luo Yu’s face. The worm writhed violently for a mont on her face before burrowing into the deeper layers of her skin through her flesh and blood vessels.
On Luo Yu’s face, one could even see the trace of the Gu worm as it moved.
