Chapter 104
<Previous Chapter<Table of Contents>Next Chapter>
As Fu Xuezhou moved, the temperature reached its peak, affecting the ghost wedding tattoo on Lou Yan.
Lou Yan’s already clouded mind, influenced by the ghost wedding contract, became even more unclear. He didn’t even think of escaping from Fu Xuezhou in time; he just sat there in a daze.
With every movement Fu Xuezhou made, he suffered a heavy electric shock. Such punishment would leave anyone completely powerless after just one occurrence.
However, Fu Xuezhou, regardless, kept mocking Lou Yan, even as his robust body gradually lost its strength due to the punishment after a couple of times.
Lou Yan’s body stiffened, looking incredulously at the Fu Xuezhou beneath him, his hand frozen in place.
The silver-haired man lay quietly on the ground, his pale yet perfect body devoid of life like a sculpture.
The purplish veins, due to the electric shock, appeared on Fu Xuezhou’s skin, terrifying yet with a hint of anomaly beauty, as if it were a corpse born in the hands of an artist.
Lou Yan snapped back to reality, stumbling away from Fu Xuezhou. When he glanced back, Fu Xuezhou’s body was limp, but the parts that shouldn’t be hard were still erect, as if mocking Lou Yan loudly.
F*ck!
Lou Yan’s handsome face turned pale, “You…”
Fu Xuezhou moved his fingertips slightly and looked at Lou Yan. This was the most he could do now, but he was calm, showing no signs of hurry.
His expression seemed indifferent, but there was a faint smile in his eyes.
This smile chilled Lou Yan to the bone.
In fact, those few movements just now didn’t really go in, at most, they only touched the entrance through the last layer of clothing. D*mn it, just a few times.
But those few times had already dealt a huge blow to Lou Yan. The mask covered Lou Yan’s expression, but couldn’t hide the veins on the back of his hand.
Furious to the extreme, Lou Yan calmed down.
His fingers stiff, he pretended effortlessly to smooth out the underwear where something had been inserted. Then, without a word, he reached back and pulled out the spinal whip from the back of his neck.
With a whooshing sound, the whip struck Fu Xuezhou hard. Flesh split, white smoke rose, and a black whip mark appeared on Fu Xuezhou’s body.
Fu Xuezhou’s breath sank, then he chuckled.
Lou Yan clenched the spinal whip tightly, bones creaking. He didn’t want to say anything, just whipped Fu Xuezhou again.
…
It took a while for the sound of the whip to stop.
Fu Xuezhou had become a bloody mess, not an inch of good flesh left on his body. His silver hair was matted with sweat and blood, and there was no sound throughout the whipping process.
His breathing was barely audible, more like a corpse than before.
“You can’t kill… Fu Xuezhou will become a ghost groom if he dies…”
Lou Yan repeated this sentence in his mind, leaving Fu Xuezhou with the last breath.
He kicked Fu Xuezhou, then turned to the prison uniform, picked it up, and put it on himself.
Fu Xuezhou’s clothes were slightly larger than Lou Yan’s figure, but it didn’t matter much. Lou Yan buttoned up and snapped the metal belt crisply. With the transformation, he went from a disheveled prisoner to a dignified and imposing hunter.
There was a pair of black gloves in the pocket of the prison uniform jacket. Lou Yan took out the gloves, put them on, smoothed out the slight wrinkles between his fingers, and put the mental recovery syringe into the pocket.
Stepping in military boots, Lou Yan walked to Fu Xuezhou’s face, looking down at him.
Fu Xuezhou closed his eyes, lying motionless on the cold ground. Even when he felt Lou Yan approaching, he didn’t open his eyes, like a dead man.
Lou Yan rarely saw Fu Xuezhou in such a sorry state. But thinking that Fu Xuezhou became like this because he had offended him without regard for the punishment, Lou Yan felt only resentment, without a hint of satisfaction in retaliating against Fu Xuezhou.
Lou Yan’s mood was complicated. They say the first step is always the hardest, but now that things have come to this point, even if he really ends up in bed with Fu Xuezhou, it seems more acceptable.
Lou Yan chuckled.
Ah, in bed.
He and Fu Xuezhou in bed… This is really something that wouldn’t be joked about in the past three lifetimes.
Why is it so difficult to kill Fu Xuezhou?
Lou Yan aimlessly thought, and as he and Fu Xuezhou no longer made contact, the temperature of the ghost marriage contract tattoo gradually began to decrease.
If there were no restrictions from the ghost marriage contract tattoo, could he kill Fu Xuezhou?
Lou Yan thought again. If there were no ghost marriage contract tattoo, why would Fu Xuezhou treat him like this? Where would Lou Yan have the opportunity to whip Fu Xuezhou?
Lou Yan closed his eyes, then suddenly lifted his foot and stepped on Fu Xuezhou’s lower body.
He used a lot of force, almost breaking it. Fu Xuezhou finally opened his eyes and looked up at Lou Yan.
After seeing the expression in Fu Xuezhou’s eyes clearly, Lou Yan felt like laughing.
The deep crimson in Fu Xuezhou’s eyes had not faded away, and the desire was faintly visible.
That desire not only didn’t fade away because of the pain but deepened in Fu Xuezhou’s eyes.
Just one glance, and Lou Yan felt a shiver of violation in his body.
Ha, at this point, he can still have residual desires in his eyes?
Is it that satisfying?
Lou Yan’s pent-up frustration grew even more unbearable. He stomped on Fu Xuezhou’s body a few times with force, feeling outraged, then kicked him hard several times.
Fu Xuezhou was forced to roll onto his side by the kicks.
Lou Yan exhaled a breath of stale air, issuing a cold warning.
“Fu Xuezhou, I hope you remember the whipping just now. You end up like this, all because of your own actions.”
He didn’t need Fu Xuezhou to answer him, nor did he want to know what Fu Xuezhou’s mood was or what he was thinking. Lou Yan said to himself, “Next time… if there’s a next time, it must be under my control. Time, place, process, how many times, only what I decide can be executed. If you want to live, remember my words in your mind.”
With that said, Lou Yan had reached his limit of patience. He turned around abruptly and walked away, lips pursed, eyebrows furrowed, not wanting to look at Fu Xuezhou anymore.
Fu Xuezhou rolled over, watching Lou Yan’s back. Lou Yan was wearing his clothes, except for the hairstyle, he looked almost the same as Fu Xuezhou.
Fu Xuezhou blinked slowly.
Soon, Lou Yan’s figure disappeared from his sight.
***
Exiting the bathroom, Lou Yan came to the circuit breaker door. Sure enough, there was no sign of Wen Yian in front of the circuit breaker door, but someone had written words with blood on the side of the silver-white iron circuit breaker door: “I’m sorry.”
Hehe.
If apologies were useful, why would we need the police?
Lou Yan’s expression and mood remained unchanged as he turned and walked towards the location he had previously arranged with Li Sanxin.
When he arrived, Li Sanxin and his two companions had been waiting for who knows how long. Li Sanxin stood against the wall, his head lowered as if asleep. Lin You and Ye Buyan stood on either side of Li Sanxin, vigilant but somewhat relaxed.
As Lou Yan approached, Lin You and Ye Buyan turned their heads towards him simultaneously. Even Li Sanxin, who appeared to be asleep, opened his eyes, filled with fatigue yet still sharp as he looked over.
Seeing Lou Yan, the “hunter,” the three of them’s faces changed.
Lou Yan removed the blank mask, coolly saying, “It’s me.”
“Yanzi!” Li Sanxin was momentarily stunned, then laughed and strode forward, “You’re so slow. How come you’ve already changed into the prison uniform?”
Lou Yan made a few perfunctory remarks, and Li Sanxin, seeing that only he had come over, asked about Wen Yian.
Lou Yan raised an eyebrow, asking, “Wen Yian hasn’t come to find you guys?”
Li Sanxin frowned, “No, we’ve been here the whole time, but we haven’t seen her.”
Lou Yan chuckled mockingly, “I didn’t expect Wen Yian to have a shred of conscience left.”
Lin You noticed something amiss in his tone and asked directly, “What do you mean?”
“Wen Yian betrayed us,” Lou Yan said lightly, wiping a drop of blood from the mask with his gloved thumb, “She fled in the midst of the action when I was dealing with Fu Xuezhou, nearly playing me to death. I originally thought that with her personality, after betraying me, she would come specifically to find you guys, deceive you out of a set of hunter clothes and masks before you knew the truth, and then leave. But she hasn’t stooped to that level yet. By the way, did you guys get the masks and clothes from the other hunters?”
Li Sanxin’s face darkened, a flicker of anger crossing his expression. Lin You also furrowed his brow, and Ye Buyan, looking at the expressions of the three of them, lowered his head in contemplation.
Before there was time to express any feelings about Wen Yian’s betrayal, Li Sanxin first told Lou Yan about hiding the hunter masks and clothes in a bedroom.
Lou Yan said, “Take me to see.”
The three of them led Lou Yan to the room. On the way, Lou Yan also told them that the mask was the important prop for disguising as a hunter.
“Although wearing the hunter mask gives us the identity of a hunter, I have only experimented with this conclusion on humans so far. If the anomalies see us wearing only masks without clothes, they may not recognize our hunter identity. Just in case, it’s better for us to change into the hunter clothes as well. There are four hunters in total, and now we are four people, which is just right.”
“The other hunter clothes are similar, but there’s a little girl’s clothes that are hard to deal with,” Li Sanxin said, reaching out to pat Lou Yan’s shoulder, troubled, “That dress is too small for us to wear even if we want to.”
Ye Buyan pursed his lips and suddenly spoke, “I can wear it.”
Lou Yan, Li Sanxin, and Lin You all turned to look at him in surprise. Lin You, somewhat curious, asked, “Comrade Ye, how do you plan to wear it?”
Ye Buyan rolled up his sleeves, and under the gaze of everyone, his arm turned into a thin piece of paper in an instant.
Both the texture and feel were no different from real paper.
Ye Buyan crumpled his arm into a ball, then unfolded it, and the paper arm returned to a human arm, only this time the human arm was intentionally shortened by Ye Buyan.
“I call my anomaly ‘Paper Ghost’,” Ye Buyan said, “It can make my body thin like paper, and I can fold and deform it like paper at will. I used the power of ‘Paper Ghost’ to escape from the ward on the upper floor through the door crack. This is my ability.”
Lin You suddenly realized, “I see.”
Lou Yan compared the length of Ye Buyan’s modified arm to that of the little girl’s arm. It was even shorter than the little girl’s. He became interested as well. “How long can this anomaly maintain your transformed body?”
“It depends on the range of transformation,” Ye Buyan said, “The larger the range of transformation, the shorter the time it can be maintained. I must turn my body back before the transformed body part becomes completely paper, otherwise, when my whole body turns into paper, the ‘Paper Ghost’ in my body will revive.”
Ye Buyan openly told them his secret. This smart and sensitive high school academic seemed to have thought a lot because of Wen Yian’s betrayal. Choosing to say these words at this time, one was that his ability was indeed suitable for wearing the little girl’s prison uniform, and the other was that he was afraid that they would become wary of him because of Wen Yian, so in order to gain the trust of Lou Yan and the others, Ye Buyan took the initiative to speak, also to show that he was not like Wen Yian, who would betray them.
Lou Yan could see Ye Buyan’s thoughts at a glance. He couldn’t help but tut twice in his heart. They were all high school students from the same class, but why was Ye Buyan so full of tricks while Lu Haoxin had none?
Soon, they arrived at the room. The hunter clothes and masks had not been touched, and there were three sets of masks and three sets of clothes.
Seeing that things had come to an end, Lou Yan couldn’t resist his drowsiness anymore. He yawned and lazily said, “Let’s go back to sleep first. I’ll sleep in this room, you guys do as you please.”
Li Sanxin was also extremely tired. Infected by Lou Yan, he yawned and waved his hand, then walked out with Lin You and Ye Buyan.
Lou Yan closed the door, locked it, and hurriedly walked to the bed. With a flop, he comfortably laid down on the bed.
Lou Yan rubbed his pillow and prepared to sleep peacefully, but his nose caught a scent that didn’t belong to him.
With his eyes closed, he sniffed around and finally lowered his head to smell his clothes.
The prison uniform was stained with blood, and the scent was strong. But beneath the smell of blood, he also smelled a faint, chilling aura.
This was Fu Xuezhou’s scent.
And this scent has contaminated the clothes, to the point that even Lou Yan wearing the clothes seemed to be embraced by Fu Xuezhou.
Lou Yan frowned, took off his black jacket and threw it on the table, then closed his eyes to sleep.
