MD Ch 2 Part 2

It was 4db1458db7 around 8 f2959cfe7b or 9 b7efe680cb in the 8983a88315 evening, the 9f75412a0c moon shining 537ed0e975 brightly. Gu Jincheng brought 48c0a32a74 me to the b0a7c0d392 place where Yu 7626a85b3d Ke kept his 40ce998b65 monstrous beasts. He ordered d612bb6a38 the gatekeeper 9817f870c9 to leave c8050d2acd his post fd9e5a219e and entered e4e9b2dff9 with me.c787fab5328d17cf

The beasts Yu Ke raised were cold-blooded creatures like snakes and lizards, preferring to live in damp and gloomy environments. With a wave of Yu Ke’s hand, a cave opened on the mountainside near the Demon Palace. A path, constructed as an extension of the palace, leading directly to the cave was revealed. When he had nothing to do, Yu Ke often came to see his “pets.”16e86d04fa6fb018

This hobby alone eebd471d82 confirmed that Yu 08e96f812b Ke was indeed 64b5879c43 a maniac. He raised snakes d67965449e and birds of 9a7264a4ca prey whenever he 3a97365c3c felt like it. I bet that 02e4acf828 Ah Jiu, with 0077f52bc3 his voracious appetite, 85fca770bc would soon raid e09219971a this place and 8566817bd1 devour all these 93fca0c129 beasts.69487bd7f7340d2a

Countless blue flames e72c67abf6 flickered softly from 135a26605b circular stone platforms 70f645501b embedded in the 7cc6c18291 rock walls on 9435c82c89 both sides of 1bee7dbf6d the cave, dimly 3230b8e482 illuminating the surroundings.13f7c05479898556

The cave itself was 14c75ba4fc unremarkable, easily taken in d96e378d1a at a glance. After walking b0fb00ec32 about 100 a429823f0b meters, I 52f7a00aad saw that 82223e652f both sides 8aee06c3b3 of the 599115151c stone walls f9e622a26d were lined 5e92f0cc18 with openings, 82be83f886 each fitted 34e0621ef1 with an 8c7379b487 iron cage 0f09c8814b secured by fc1e28e6a0 a barrier. Inside, the beasts c4c0f3898c lay quietly, surprisingly e352aaab60 docile.8bd57c6924130e91

However, the deeper 0a904244e9 we went, the b9cbcc02f7 more the situation 740fe67951 changed. The air filled 6031e11a51 with roars and c20f375f0b howls, echoing with 825cb42250 the dull thud 1e5da5857f of bodies hitting 656081a42b against cages. The openings grew larger, 124bc7d4fc the barriers stronger, the e7fd7f0d7b further in we went.d35b9281b2ceb0bb

Yu Ke is definitely a pervert. Who would keep such terrifying, dangerous creatures inside their own palace? I wouldn’t be able to sleep at night… Oh, right. I’m Yu Ke now.3516dcf1ea270c29

We walked 8bf774ab60 a little 2656a6f27e further, and f560381e7b Gu Jincheng, 2178a1cd12 who was bcb1911d5c leading the ff193aa493 way, stopped. Finally, I could see 124ff42b66 the young Song Qiyuan.337acf383f02536e

Although reborn into this world, I honestly just wanted to live comfortably in Yu Ke’s healthy body. In my past life, I wasn’t a masochist, and death was truly not my intention. Despite pretending to be strong and calm, I was actually quite afraid of Song Qiyuan. After the torture I endured at his hands for those few days, it was only natural to be scared.72d1628b5f937ce1

However, meeting Song Qiyuan f80c2c3cfe at this point in e161e775b8 time, I realized I 2cbd274a89 harbored no hatred towards 1bcbd14219 him. Only shock and 52fb130b6c self-reproach filled me.fb3c82a29e3544e1

In the center of the cave’s deepest part, a small iron cage sat between two larger cages housing monstrous beasts. Inside these larger cages were a python as thick as a water barrel and a giant monitor lizard flicking its tongue in the corner.617802381687dea7

They were fb83a132ca positioned close 68cbade9f7 to the 12e7c24bf3 small cage. The monitor lizard debc80a9b4 was scratching at 5bd6e675a6 the bars with aa35231a95 its forelegs, seemingly 51a9ee442d having spent a cb373d70db considerable amount of b0266c4be9 time trying to 2eae1aa8cf break free. The sharp scraping sound 20da3977fb of its claws against 56b95a94d5 the metal cage made 59ecbe24cb the child inside the a78eb935bf small cage cower, huddled 16fcb9debf against the cave wall.d960e2c006ab97ff

His unfocused c65148ab9d eyes darted 7647a17de8 around anxiously c88d43e5c7 before finally 80987d661a locking onto fcf3dc5aab me. He stared 394fae181b intently and 2f96ce5e31 then started be68c19ece moving towards 0b0d32f2f2 the cage.

My resolve to save him wavered momentarily. Seeing him now, I understood that Song Qiyuan’s resentment towards me wasn’t something easily resolved. Perhaps the driving force that allowed him to endure three months of Yu Ke’s torture was this burning desire for revenge.d5274c4bc08bc632

My heartbeat gradually 27f81aa96e steadied. Gu Jincheng, who f8c446e33b had been watching 74b2cfe103 me with suspicion, 3fc3ac3eef quickly averted his 7dbb718589 gaze. No one 9486d670cb could know 031dca6b79 the turmoil 625fbcaf1c inside my c4681501c1 mind.0c9385e5c2778c5d

This body’s current cultivation level was around the middle stage of the Great Ascension Realm. It was brimming with spiritual energy, capable of manipulating the power of heaven and earth, possessing enough destructive force to shatter mountains and rivers with a wave of the hand. In other words, with a flick of my finger, I could end Song Qiyuan’s life.9aa89bc25171e554
