Chapter 44: Inflicted utter humiliation and threatened suicide

Lin Xinyi grit her teeth, only now realizing how naive her previous thoughts had been.

As droplets of water fell one by one onto the ground, she shamefully tried to cover the private parts of her body, but her struggle only served to create a tantalizing scene.

“What is the matter, Master? I liked you much better a moment ago, when you were bossing me around—”

The night grew deeper.

A bright moon had already hung itself upon the branches at some unknown hour.

Qin Huaiyin held the chain in her hand while Lin Xinyi’s face was flooded with a crimson cloud of shame.

A collar, not unlike one used for a pet, had been fastened around her neck.

“You… you rebellious disciple! To think you would put a collar meant for taming spirit beasts on your Master!”

Lin Xinyi did not have a stitch of clothing on her.

She had been placed in the center of the pavilion in such a state.

Though she knew no one else was present within the Grotto-heaven, such a shameful act still made her feel an immense sense of disgrace.

“Is this not what Master likes? To be forced by me…”

“You! What nonsense are you talking about?! Who would want such a thing?!”

Lin Xinyi used her hands to protect herself as she sat on the stone bench at the edge of the pavilion.

Because her legs were difficult to move, she had not realized the severity of the situation when Qin Huaiyin carried her out.

Now it seemed the other girl was treating her embarrassment like an after-dinner dessert, constantly humiliating her to completely annihilate her dignity.

“Do not think I will bow my head to you just because of this!”

Lin Xinyi held back the tears in her eyes.

This humiliating experience made the woman, who had been feigning strength, feel like she was on the verge of crying.

She had thought the other girl feared her, but it turned out that it had all been her own fantasy.

The good food and care she received during the day were only provided so she would have enough physical strength at night and wouldn’t faint so quickly.

Lin Xinyi bit her lip so hard she didn’t even notice when it began to bleed.

“Master, do you not feel the scenery tonight is particularly beautiful…?”

Qin Huaiyin rattled the chain in her hand.

The collar connected to the other end made Lin Xinyi feel a deep sense of shame.

She could tell that Qin Huaiyin did not want to kill her yet, but being humiliated over and over again filled her with an unbearable sense of resentment.

“You talked so much about revenge, but in the end, you are just doing the same thing I did!”

“That is right. I am doing exactly what you did…”

Qin Huaiyin did not argue.

Instead, she slowly approached and looked down at Lin Xinyi, who was still trying to cover herself.

She used a finger to gently tilt that beautiful face up and kissed her without hesitation.

Lin Xinyi was caught off guard by the forceful, domineering kiss.

She wanted to raise her hands to push the girl away, but if she did, she wouldn’t be able to cover her body.

That sense of shame made a feeling of suffocation slowly rise in her heart.

Unable to control herself any longer, Lin Xinyi decided to push her away.

However, as soon as her hands touched the other girl’s body, her wrists were grabbed and pinned forcefully against a pillar.

Mph! Mph!!

By the time she was released, Lin Xinyi’s gaze was completely disoriented.

She leaned against the back of the bench, panting heavily with a blurred expression.

Despite her passive state, her fair skin looked as if it were draped in a veil of moonlight.

Qin Huaiyin felt her throat go dry.

Lin Xinyi was usually selfish and arrogant, but she possessed a truly beautiful shell that was exactly to her taste.

As the night deepened, the wildness inherent in Qin Huaiyin’s dragon blood was slowly being provoked.

“What Master did to me was not just this. Simply because Master liked it, I had to wear those shameful, thin veils. Did Master ever consider my feelings back then…?”

“Ah? Did… did I…?”

“Master probably does not remember. In Year 658 of the Daoyuan Era, Master happened to obtain a spiritual plant called the Ten-Thousand-Year Yam…”

“What… what about it? What does that have to do with what you are doing to me now?”

Lin Xinyi did have a slight impression of what the girl was saying, but she had no idea why she was bringing it up.

Seeing her Master’s cold reaction, Qin Huaiyin let out a soft laugh.

“I suppose for you, it was just a small matter. To test its effects, you took its juices and smeared them all over my body. Surely Master has not forgotten such a thing…”

“Er, was… was there a problem with that…?”

Hearing that infuriating answer, Qin Huaiyin’s anger flared up.

She dragged the woman up from the bench and bit down on Lin Xinyi’s shoulder.

A sharp, stabbing pain immediately enveloped her.

Lin Xinyi’s eyes welled with tears from the pain.

She truly did not remember the incident.

After all, to Lin Xinyi, why should she care about what happened to others?

Whether she remembered it or not didn’t matter.

“I already apologized, didn’t I? What more do you want?!”

Though Lin Xinyi said this, her tone held no hint of reflection.

Qin Huaiyin had been a beauty since she was a child, and even after growing up, she looked weak and easily bullied.

‘So what if I felt like teasing her when I saw her? Isn’t that normal?’

Even now, Lin Xinyi wanted to say it was the girl’s own fault for being so beautiful; any mistakes she made were because the other girl had tempted her.

Qin Huaiyin didn’t care for excuses.

She reached out and began to toy with the strategic location below.

Without even giving her a chance for foreplay, she stroked across that fragile crevice.

Lin Xinyi’s body trembled slightly, clearly having a reflexive reaction to the stimulation.

“Master, are you afraid…?”

Qin Huaiyin’s fingers slowed down after making gentle contact, as she could clearly feel Lin Xinyi’s body shaking.

Qin Huaiyin understood completely now.

Facing a Master who knew she was wrong but refused to change, the only option was to punish her severely.

Lin Xinyi was trying to act tough again, even attempting to use verbal threats.

“I… I just feel the wind is a bit cold. I am a Nascent Soul cultivator, you had better think carefully…”

Though she talked tough, her body was shaking like a leaf, betraying her.

Qin Huaiyin smiled and gave her no chance to argue.

Using her fingers in tandem, she applied sudden pressure to a vital point.

Ah!!

Before Lin Xinyi could react, the sudden stimulation brought tears to the corners of her eyes.

Even so, she grit her teeth and didn’t make a single sound, as if this was her final form of resistance.

“Master truly is strong, not even making a sound…”

As Qin Huaiyin played, the woman lost even the strength to resist with her hands.

Lin Xinyi felt a stream of warm water slowly spread beneath her.

Despite her silence, her body’s reaction betrayed her.

The stimulation just now had been too intense, causing her to lose focus after the peak and lose control of her body.

The warm stream was like a faucet that had been turned on; it simply wouldn’t stop.

“Wait, don’t! Don’t look! Turn around, turn around!”

Lin Xinyi finally snapped back to reality.

She hurriedly clamped her legs together and covered herself with her hands, her face as red as an apple.

However, all she received was Qin Huaiyin’s mocking laughter.

She had actually lost control of her bladder in such a situation.

All the previous humiliations crashed into her at once.

She felt like jumping into the pool and drowning herself.

No matter how she tried to hide, she couldn’t, and she could only shed tears of resentment.

“You bastard, is this what you wanted? Don’t look! Stop looking!”

Lin Xinyi’s voice was sobbing.

She even used the back of her hands to cover her eyes in a fit of self-deception, trying to hide her expression.

As the fluid continued to drip, her so-called noble dignity was trampled into the dust.

“Master, you look so cute like this…”

Qin Huaiyin laughed like a silver bell, as if rubbing salt into the wound.

It made Lin Xinyi’s recent persistence look like a joke.

“Don’t! Don’t touch me!”

Qin Huaiyin reached out to touch her, but her hand was slapped away again.

Lin Xinyi had clearly reached her breaking point.

She didn’t care what the other girl did to her anymore; without a shred of self-respect left, she would rather be dead.

“Kill… kill me…”

“But Master said she would do anything to live just a while ago~”

“Enough! Just kill me!”

Lin Xinyi grabbed the hem of the girl’s clothes.

Her dignity had been washed away entirely.

She now regretted saying she would do anything to survive.

Qin Huaiyin’s brow furrowed slightly.

Her good mood vanished the moment she heard those words.

‘She was so self-righteous when she did those things to me, yet she wants to die after only this?’

“When I was used as a cultivation furnace by you, did I ever ask for death? When I was subjected to all sorts of humiliation and torture, did I ever give up on my life…?”

“I am a Nascent Soul cultivator! To be toyed with like this by a small character like you… I would rather die!”

“A Nascent Soul cultivator? A small character? Master, open your eyes and look. Right now, you are just a woman I can play with using only two fingers…”

Qin Huaiyin slowly crouched down and tilted up that exquisite face.

This face had caused her to feel despair countless times, and now it was begging for death right in front of her.

“I… I have my pride…”

Lin Xinyi clenched her fists tightly.

However, standing there naked, her words carried no weight.

All she could do was shed bitter tears.

Qin Huaiyin smiled thinly.

She hoisted the woman onto the railing and gave her a forceful push with her fingertips.

Lin Xinyi lost her balance and fell backward.

Before she could react, the cool water of the pool enveloped her as she plunged into the depths.

Splash!!

“Very well then. Go ahead and die, Master…”
