Time Travel: The Tsundere Junior Sister Goes Crazy
Chapter 57 The Fire of Jealousy
In the dim cell, the flickering candlelight illuminated Shen Yue's pale and resolute face.
Her clothes were stained with blood and dirt, and every whip mark was like a brand engraved on her skin, recording endless humiliation and injustice.
Shen Yue's eyes were closed, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, but she still clenched her teeth and did not utter a single moan.
Her hands were clenched into fists, her nails dug deep into her palms, blood slowly seeped out, interweaving with the scars on her body to form a tragic picture.
"Oh, Shen Yue, your current state is really distressing."
Lu Wanwan's voice was as piercing as ice.
She stood outside the cell, her gorgeous dress looking even more charming under the dim light.
There was a smug smile on his face, and his eyes were full of contempt and disdain for Shen Yue.
She gently swung the long whip in her hand, and every swing was accompanied by a whistling sound.
Showing off his power over Shen Yue's life and death.
"We are both people who traveled through time, but you are so embarrassed."
Lu Wanwan approached the prison door, bent down, and her eyes flashed with complex light.
"I originally thought that the Son of Fortune would be extraordinary, but now it seems that he is just so-so."
There was a hint of sarcasm and jealousy in her tone, but more of a sense of superiority as a winner.
Shen Yue slowly opened his eyes, and those eyes that were once as bright as stars were now bloodshot.
But it still shines with an unyielding light.
She used up all her strength, struggled to sit up, stared at Lu Wanwan with a sharp gaze, and said word by word: "Lu Wanwan, you can't beat me. Even if I, Shen Yue, am imprisoned, the fire in my heart will not be extinguished. One day, you will know who is the real strong one."
After saying that, Shen Yue suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood, but the expression on her face became more determined.
She clenched her hands again, as if gathering the weak power of the fire element in her body.
Although it was weak, it was enough to support her to keep moving forward and not be knocked down.
Seeing this, Lu Wanwan curled up the corner of her mouth into a sneer, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and then she returned to her arrogant look.
"Humph, it's no use being tough. Your luck and your spiritual roots can't save you here."
As she spoke, she raised the whip high again, ready to bring it down again.
A sudden gust of wind broke the silence of the cell, as if an invisible force was surging in the dark.
An inexplicable premonition surged in Shen Yue's heart. She stared at Lu Wanwan closely, with a glimmer of hope in her eyes...
But nothing.
After being whipped, Shen Yue was thrown into jail again by Lu Wanwan!
In the dark and damp cell, Shen Yue curled up in the corner, his body trembling from the continuous whipping.
Her clothes were tattered and her skin was covered with shocking scars.
Each wound was deep enough to see the bone, and the blood and soil mixed together, outlining her misery and helplessness at the moment.
Lu Wanwan stood outside the cell holding a long whip, her figure looked particularly distorted under the dim light.
There was a smug smile on her face, a hideous look of a villain who had succeeded.
Every time the whip was swung, there was a crisp sound and Shen Yue's painful groan.
She enjoyed the pleasure of torturing Shen Yue, as if only this could soothe the jealousy and resentment deep in her heart.
"Shen Yue, look at your current state. How can you still look like a child of destiny?"
Lu Wanwan's voice was as cold as a knife, and every word was like a sharp blade.
It cut into Shen Yue's heart. "As a fellow time traveler, you ended up like this. It's really ridiculous. Do you think luck can protect you? In the face of absolute power, luck is nothing but a joke."
Shen Yue clenched his teeth and did not respond to Lu Wanwan's ridicule.
Her face was as pale as paper and veins bulged on her forehead, showing that she was enduring great pain.
But her eyes were extremely firm, as if telling everyone that she would never succumb to fate.
"Senior Sister Lu, the elders want to interrogate Shen Yue. The elders are already waiting in the main hall."
The disciple who was sent to deliver the message left immediately after delivering the message.
The two guards roughly pushed open the cell door, pulled up Shen Yue roughly, and dragged her out of the dark and damp cell.
Shen Yue's body looked weak due to long-term imprisonment, but she still gritted her teeth and tried to maintain her dignity and pride.
Her feet staggered on the ground, and every step felt like she was stepping on the edge of a knife, but she did not utter a groan, just endured it all silently.
Seeing this, the disciples around cast complicated looks at him.
Lu Wanwan looked at Shen Yue being dragged out, with a sneer on her face.
Outside the cell, the surrounding disciples were whispering. Although their voices were soft, every word was clearly heard by Shen Yue.
"Wasn't she very beautiful before? Why did she become like this now?"
"Stealing a banned book? This is a serious crime! How dare she?"
"That's right. She is a genius with fire spirit roots. How could she have embarked on this path of no return?"
"What a pity, with such great talent, he ended up like this."
……
These discussions were like sharp arrows, shooting towards Shen Yue's heart.
But she didn't have time to care about all this. She had only one thought in her mind: to survive, find the truth, and clear herself of the injustice.
Seeing that Shen Yue did not react, Lu Wanwan swung the whip even more vigorously.
Every whip seemed to drain away Shen Yue's last bit of strength, but she still stood stubbornly without uttering a word for mercy.
Although her body was emaciated, her spirit was as solid as a rock.
Arriving at the entrance of the main hall, all the elders were waiting for the disciple who stole the scroll.
As Shen Yue was brought in front of everyone, her miserable condition immediately attracted the attention of the elders of Qingyun Sect.
Although they were usually dignified and solemn, they were shocked when they saw Shen Yue's hands and feet that were bloody from being rubbed by the chains.
And that face full of scars but still determined, couldn't help but arouse their sympathy.
"What...what's going on?"
An elderly elder frowned, his tone clearly filled with displeasure, "Who allowed you to use the criminal law privately? Qingyun Sect has always been founded on benevolence and justice. When did it become so cruel and inhumane?"
As soon as these words were spoken, there was a sudden silence all around. The disciples lowered their heads one after another, not daring to look directly into the angry eyes of the elders.
Seeing this, Lu Wanwan thought to herself that something was wrong, but she pretended to be calm and stood up.
"Disciple Lu Wanwan, greetings to all the elders."
She bowed, her voice clear but a little nervous, "I was forced to do this. Shen Yue stole the forbidden book, and there is irrefutable evidence, but she refused to admit her guilt. For the sake of the sect's reputation and rules, I had no choice but to use criminal law, hoping to make her return to the right path."
As soon as Lu Wanwan finished speaking, the elders immediately started talking about it.
Some elders thought she had a point, after all, the sect's rules could not be violated;
But some elders questioned her approach, believing that she was too harsh and that it was inappropriate to use torture without permission.
"Lu Wanwan, do you know that private punishment is against the sect's rules?"
Elder Ji Yin looked at her sternly, "Even if Shen Yue really made a mistake, the sect should discuss it before making a decision. How can you act on your own?"
Lu Wanwan's heart tightened, but she quickly adjusted her emotions and continued, "I know I was wrong, but the situation was urgent at the time, and I made this decision out of loyalty to the sect and consideration for protecting the sect's interests. Elders, please forgive my reckless behavior."
Upon hearing this, all the elders fell into deep thought.
They knew that Lu Wanwan had always been a smart and capable disciple, but this time she had indeed gone a bit too far.
However, considering that she made this mistake to protect the interests of the sect, and Shen Yue's crime has not yet been clarified, they cannot make a decision immediately.
"Forget it, let's put this matter aside for now."
Finally, the older elder waved his hand and interrupted everyone's discussion. "Take Shen Yue back to heal her first, and then interrogate her after her injuries have improved. As for Lu Wanwan, you need to go to the Discipline Hall to receive punishment as a warning."
As soon as these words came out, Lu Wanwan's face suddenly turned as pale as paper.
