The young woman was dragged out by the hair by Guan Ke, violently pulled along.
Although her voice sounded excited, as if she felt honored by Guan Ke’s favor, in her lowered eyes, a flicker of hatred passed.
Her name was Ni Li.
Though she appeared the same as the other women in the prison cells, because she hadn’t been imprisoned here for very long, she hadn’t yet been bred into submission.
She knew that direct confrontation would never let her escape, so she had to find a way to outsmart them.
Ni Li had been captured from a small caravan they had raided the previous time.
The caravan’s guards were insufficient, and they fell into a trap set by the bandits.
The entire caravan was wiped out, and Ni Li was chosen by Guan Ke and brought to the sealed chamber.
Ni Li had thought about resisting, but the difference in strength was too great.
Guan Ke was Level 40, and he had a gang of underlings.
Ni Li was only Level 30.
Even in a one-on-one duel, Ni Li couldn’t possibly be a match for Guan Ke.
However, Guan Ke didn’t know Ni Li’s exact level.
He could only sense that she possessed Magic Power, but since Ni Li had never resisted, he subconsciously assumed her level was very low.
But this was actually Ni Li’s strategy of feigning weakness.
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to resist—it was that, given her strength, using Magic Power to fight Guan Ke and the others would only get her easily subdued and would expose her true power, making Guan Ke even more vigilant.
In that case, his watch over her would only tighten.
So, though humiliating, Ni Li had to temporarily refrain from resisting in order to survive.
Ni Li had anticipated the outcome of acting this way.
She might temporarily become a tool for the bandits to vent their desires, humiliated repeatedly by these rough, stinking men.
But the reality was a bit better than she imagined.
After being escorted to the bandit stronghold, Ni Li was surprisingly not touched by the other bandits.
Instead, she was directly sent to the stronghold leader, Guan Ke.
Guan Ke seemed quite satisfied with Ni Li’s appearance, so naturally, he wouldn’t let the other bandits touch her.
Thus, Ni Li was hidden away by Guan Ke in the sealed chamber, locked up with these women.
Though she had still been played with by Guan Ke several times, at least she hadn’t been humiliated by the other bandits.
Guan Ke was at least somewhat cleaner than those filthy, stinking men.
How could she possibly want to be toyed with by Guan Ke like this?
Her hatred for Guan Ke grew deeper with each passing day.
She had been wearing the Magic-Sealing Handcuffs all along.
Until one time, Ni Li took the initiative to suggest removing the Magic-Sealing Handcuffs, because the handcuffs were too inconvenient and didn’t let her display her full skills.
Guan Ke listened, and with a mixture of suspicion and belief, he removed the handcuffs.
But he remained extremely vigilant.
Ni Li didn’t plan to turn hostile immediately after removing the handcuffs, because she couldn’t beat Guan Ke in a one-on-one fight.
After the handcuffs were removed, Ni Li displayed her skilled techniques, giving Guan Ke an extraordinary experience.
After that, every time Guan Ke played with Ni Li, he would remove her handcuffs, and his guard against Ni Li grew less and less.
And today, in Ni Li’s eyes, was the perfect opportunity for her revenge.
Ni Li was pinned down by Guan Ke.
Her voice was full of seduction, but in reality, she didn’t mean it.
In her heart, she was thinking about how to kill Guan Ke.
Now, the time had come.
Ni Li could feel that Guan Ke was about to reach his most defenseless moment.
She understood that now was the time.
With a sound of ultimate ecstasy, Ni Li simultaneously unleashed her full Magic Power.
A cyan Wind Orb materialized in her hand and instantly sliced toward the neck of Guan Ke, who was pressing down on her.
However, Guan Ke’s neck immediately turned an iron-gray color.
He had used the Earth Element to instantly reinforce his body.
“Ni Li… what are you doing?”
Guan Ke’s movements stopped.
He looked at Ni Li’s incredulous expression and let out a sneer.
“What… why?”
Ni Li stared at Guan Ke’s neck in disbelief.
Her sudden ambush hadn’t even broken through his defense.
Although the Earth Element did have a certain restraining effect against the Wind Element, Guan Ke had been completely defenseless just now.
If she couldn’t even break his defense under those conditions, that was absurd.
“Heh, Ni Li, did you really think I would be completely defenseless?”
Guan Ke mocked Ni Li, who was still lying below in shock.
It turned out he had never let his guard down against her.
The so-called relaxation and trust were all just an act.
“Are you nervous? It feels like your body is trembling?”
Ni Li naturally understood what Guan Ke meant.
She was both angry and ashamed.
Facing a situation like this, how could she not be nervous?
The next moment, Guan Ke firmly pressed down on Ni Li’s shoulders and grabbed her fair neck.
Ni Li immediately felt difficulty breathing.
“Finally made you show your hand. If you hadn’t shown it today, you wouldn’t have had another chance later.”
“What are you… saying?”
Ni Li didn’t quite understand the meaning behind Guan Ke’s words.
Since Guan Ke was leaving the stronghold tomorrow, he was naturally very patient in explaining in detail to Ni Li.
“Haha, I’m leaving here for good tomorrow, returning to normal human society. You women are all my forbidden treasures. How could I let others touch you?”
“You bastard…”
“Slap!”
As Guan Ke explained, Ni Li immediately understood his meaning.
She squeezed out a curse from her throat, but a loud slap rang out, cutting off her words.
A red mark immediately appeared on Ni Li’s fair little face.
Guan Ke hadn’t held back at all this time.
After all, he was going to kill all these women anyway, so holding back or not didn’t matter anymore.
“You little bitch. Now, enjoy the last moments of your life.”
“Wait, wait! No! What are you… doing?”
Guan Ke spoke with a meaningful tone, but Ni Li’s expression suddenly turned to extreme terror.
She could feel Guan Ke’s body growing harder and harder.
She instantly realized what Guan Ke intended to do.
“No! Please, spare me! I can follow you away, serve you for life!”
Ni Li began to weep and beg for mercy.
She didn’t want to die, especially not in such a way.
“That won’t do.”
Guan Ke laughed wickedly as he continued.
He had long wanted to try this kind of play, but it would turn these women into one-time-use items, so he had to wait for this moment to enjoy it to the fullest.
“Gah—”
Blood splattered.
The sound of flesh and bones breaking rang out.
But… it wasn’t the sound of Ni Li’s body being destroyed.
It was the sound of Guan Ke’s flesh being severed.
“Aaaaaah!”
“Don’t make me see such a disgusting scene… you bastard…”
At the entrance of the sealed chamber, a white figure stood there.
