A thin and long chain traversed across Yan Gu's collarbone.

Because of how he was positioned, Yan Gu had to lean against the side of the table. His entire body was abnormally pale, and his chains were covered in bloodstains and spots. It was not difficult to see how many torments he'd suffered because of this chain.

Qin Kaiyi, held in Shen Feixiao's arms, almost went insane when he saw this scene. He wanted to yell something at Shen Feixiao, but realized he had no power to change this situation... in the end that system actually abandoned him.

Ziyang Shi glanced at Qin Kaiyi's pale expression and carelessly laughed. He then walked forward and pinched Yan Gu's chin, forcing him to wake up.

"Ziyang Shi..." Yan Gu's lips were dry and cracked. The moment he opened his eyes and saw Ziyang Shi, his eyes filled with hatred. "You actually still dare to come?"

"Why would I not dare to come?" Ziyang Shi's beautiful face held a vicious smile. He reached out a hand and roughly pulled at the chain on Yan Gu, looking at the already scabbed over wounds flowing with blood again, "Right now... what can you do?"

Yan Gu gritted his teeth and said nothing. However, when he saw Shen Feixiao standing behind him with Qin Kaiyi in his arms, he suddenly froze.

"Why are you here?" Yan Gu saw Qin Kaiyi in a state not much better than him, and did not know what to say for a moment. When facing Ziyang Shi imprisoning and humiliating him, he could cast that aside. But if these circumstances were forced on Qin Kaiyi... Yan Gu could not bear it.

"Oh, why this attitude when an old friend comes to see you?" Ziyang Shi apparently knew Yan Gu very well. He sneered, "I say, Yan Gu, you shouldn't be thinking that after being squeezed in the palm of Shen Feixiao's hands, Qin Shi would really live a good life."

"You two!!" Yan Gu truly wanted to kill Ziyang Shi. Since Xue Xian left him, he had not stopped thinking that he wanted to kill this man. So he gave up everything to activate the godly poisonous insect, causing the Ziyang clan to gradually thin out, to the extent that there was only Ziyang Pei and Ziyang Shi left. Due to an unexpected turn of events, Ziyang Shi was not tortured to death by the godly poisonous insect and instead lived. He even caught Yan Gu... Yan Gu was completely helpless; he had no working plans, and after a thousand years his spiritual power had almost completely dissipated.

"You must want to kill me so badly," Ziyang Pei drawled with indifference, "I didn't die. Are you very disappointed?"

"Of course I'm disappointed." Even though Yan Gu was in a miserable state, he did not seem to want to compromise at all. He glanced at Ziyang Shi and then cast his gaze on the speechless Qin Kaiyi as he spoke to Shen Feixiao, "Shen Feixiao, Qin Shi has never owed you anything. On what grounds do you disgrace him like this?"

"What do you want to say?" Shen Feixiao saw that Yan Gu was powerless to defend himself, but unexpectedly had the presence of mind to think of Qin Kaiyi. His interest peaked, he continued, "Tell me and let's see?"

"In the secret realm I entered his sea of knowledge, so I naturally clearly saw everything that happened between you two," Yang Gu stated dully. "Even though he has harmed you, he has never harbored any malice towards you. He has never hesitated when choosing your life over his own... Shen Feixiao, is treating Qin Kaiyi like this worthy of your conscience?"

"If it's worthy then good, if not then that's all," Shen Feixiao was completely unconcerned with Yan Gu's words. "Right now, what's the point of saying this?"
