I'm bound to the World-Destroying Witch

Chapter 573. Ye Lidongjun's Shameful Plan
Ye Lidongjun had also searched for the Dragon Heart Flame for over a hundred years, scouring the entire empire, but he could not find it at all.

Unexpectedly, this curse of shame, which he had initially thought was a nuisance, has now brought him hope.

The only thing that disgusted him was...

Only by completing the eight things that one considers most shameful can one obtain the Dragon Heart Flame.

Sirius. If Sirius were still alive, he wouldn't be able to find peace of mind unless he hacked this person to pieces, threw him into a pigsty, and tormented him day and night.

"Does Mr. Dongjun mean you intend to accomplish eight shameful deeds?" Jin Yanghong asked in surprise. "How many have you accomplished so far?"

Ye Lidong glanced at the middle-aged man with his heterochromatic eyes and said calmly, "Five."

Those who achieve great things do not stick to trivial matters.

For the sake of his ultimate goal, he could endure some hardship and depravity. After all, every founding emperor in history had experienced setbacks and suffering, and they were all people of strong character.

Ye Lidongjun, from birth to his current high position and power, has always been very patient.

There was never anything he couldn't get.

Before dawn, he was willing to endure hardship and bide his time, like a tiger crouching in the darkness, waiting for the moment to strike his prey.

However, apart from Kenshin, no one else knew the details of these five shameful deeds that were secretly accomplished.

There are three items left.

The problem now is that after completing those five tasks, the things that make him feel ashamed have exceeded the maximum tolerance of his inner dignity.

One of them was undoubtedly his wife, Freya.

Although she was only his wife in name, she didn't even enter the wedding hall on their wedding day and instead ran away from the wedding and lived in seclusion for ten years.

Although they have returned to Litian City, they still haven't met once. At most, they have only exchanged a few words through video calls.

His attitude remained as cold as ever.

Regardless, Freya was his white moonlight, the object of his admiration since childhood, and the woman Ye Lidongjun was determined to have.

Freya had long been considered his possession.

He naturally neither wanted to nor could he possibly accomplish such a shameful act by cuckolding himself.

However, after five humiliating incidents, Ye Lidongjun has discovered the loopholes in the rules of the Shameful Spirit Curse.

The criteria for the completion of the Shame Curse are: the host believes that the event has occurred, and the emotional points related to shame have reached their peak, entering an extreme red temperature.

In other words, it doesn't actually need to happen in reality.

The only thing to be careful about is that if the host later realizes that the 'shameful thing that happened before' was fake and did not happen, the number of completed events will decrease again.

This is how it was when he committed his fifth humiliating act.
He had already succeeded by exploiting a logical loophole, but after realizing it was fake, he failed on the fifth attempt and ultimately had to actually complete the task.

Although the fifth attempt failed, it allowed Ye Lidongjun to fully understand the loopholes in the rules and to devise an even more perfect plan.

He planned to exploit loopholes in the rules to accomplish three shameful acts—6, 7, and 8—in one fell swoop!

The first step in this plan is to fake Freya's kidnapping.

Ten minutes later, he will have Kenshin use his ability to split his personality into two: one is the "inner personality" who knows the specific plan and logical flaws, and the other is the "outer personality" who does not know the plan and flaws.

Next, his personality will dominate all his thoughts and actions.

Then, the villain who faked Freya's kidnapping will send threatening letters. If he doesn't comply with the villain's demands, the villain will assault Freya and send him a video.

In reality, however, the villain was merely a puppet arranged by Ye Lidongjun, not the real person. His face was simply that of a scornful ant he remembered, a figure he despised, to amplify the sense of humiliation. Thus, the persona that didn't understand the truth would feel extreme humiliation, leading him to complete the sixth shameful act.

Once the eighth item is completed and the Dragon Heart Flame is obtained, the hidden personality deep within the soul will emerge and regain control.

All the details during this period, such as how to prevent the other personality from noticing anything amiss, need to be handled by Kenshin.

Ye Lidongjun has six trusted servants, among whom Jianxin has been by his side for many years and is his most trusted confidant. He is steady in his work and has never made a mistake.

He believed that Kenshin could control the plan and deploy everything well.

"Jin Yang Hong, I cannot disclose the specific details of the plan. As for what I need you to do, my subordinates will tell you."

As Ye Lidongjun spoke softly, a tall and imposing man emerged from the darkness, clad in black and red dragon scale armor, with thick eyebrows, a broad face, and an air of heroic spirit.

Jin Yanghong naturally recognized this person, named Ba Ji, who was a genius of the same era as Ye Lidongjun. He challenged Ye Lidongjun to several duels, but was completely defeated. For some reason, he became Ye Lidongjun's confidant and had amazing combat power.

The handsome young man in the wheelchair glanced at the burly man and ordered, "The plan is about to begin. Take Jin Yang Hongge down there."

"Yes!" The burly man's voice boomed, and he respectfully clasped his hands in a fist salute.

nightfall.

Xia Feng sped through the dark forest, his figure flashing and disappearing as he moved forward at lightning speed.

Soon, a towering cliff came into view.

He stood on the treetop, gazing into the distance, and discovered what appeared to be a cave on the cliff.

According to the Pale Seal, Teacher Fu is in the cave.

Xia Feng couldn't help but wonder, what was Teacher Fu doing in this desolate place so late at night?
something wrong.

Sensing something was wrong, he re-entered the Paladin Space and rapidly approached the high cave.

Through his deconstructive eye, he saw two people in the cold, dark cave.

One, dressed in a black robe and hood, stood motionless at the cave entrance like a wooden figure, his head bowed so that his face could not be seen.

The other one, dressed in a loose white martial arts robe with a black belt cinching her slender waist, had her long, wine-red hair styled into a side ponytail that cascaded down her left shoulder like snow-capped peaks and proud plum blossoms—it was Freya.

Freya stood lazily against the stone wall, her arms crossed over her chest, holding a scabbard. Her long eyelids were lowered, and she pretended to be asleep with her eyes closed.

Xia Feng was even more puzzled. He had initially suspected that Teacher Fu had been kidnapped and had ended up in this desolate wilderness.

That's why he sped up to get here.

But judging from the situation, it doesn't seem like it.

Just as Xia Feng was wondering...

The strange man in black robes, like a robot, seemed to receive some kind of command and suddenly looked up at Freya.

Xia Feng was instantly shocked, his scalp tingling, because the black-robed man's face was exactly the same as his!
The man in black cleared his throat with a cough, as if adjusting his voice, and stared at Freya, saying softly, "Teacher Freya."

"Bang—!!" Before the man in black robes could finish speaking, his head flew off instantly and was smashed to pieces by Xia Feng's two punches.

Damn it, how dare you impersonate me! Xia Feng was furious and stomped on the guy twice more, instantly turning his head and body into wood chips.

Wood shavings?

Xia Feng was puzzled. What was this thing? Could it be a wooden substitute death technique?

Thinking of this, Xia Feng immediately released the blood beast from the shadow beneath his feet and swallowed all the fragments to prevent them from regenerating!
