"what chance?"
“It’s my chance to be his!” Lu Mingze pointed to Lu Mingfei in the picture. “I will prove that I can do better than him.”
Xuanling stared at Lu Mingze for a few seconds, then reached out and plucked a hair from her head. The hair quickly transformed in her hand, eventually turning into a golden feather.
"Take this, and no one will bother you!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Xuanling's figure disappeared along with the screen made of clouds, leaving only a golden feather floating on the clouds.
Lu Mingze grabbed the feather and sneered:
"Brother, time is running out."
Chapter 76: The Five Punishments Deluxe Family Bucket!
In the darkness of the Liu family mansion, the lights in Lu Mingfei's room had already been turned off.
Ling lay quietly by his bedside, while Lu Mingfei slept soundly.
[Warning, only one minute left until the daily mission deadline]
【warn......】
[Mission countdown: 10, 9, 8...]
The cold, mechanical sound suddenly shattered the silence.
Lu Mingfei suddenly sprang up from the bed, but fell back down heavily in a daze.
He instinctively rubbed his forehead, his muddled thoughts still not cleared—
[Daily task detected as incomplete]
[Execution of Punishment: Five-Point Penalty Package]
Before despair could even take shape, punishment had already arrived!
First punishment: drowning
The invisible "water" instantly poured into his consciousness, flowing back into him through his mouth, nose, seven orifices, and even every pore.
He felt as if he had been thrown into a deep-sea whirlpool, the heavy water pressure tearing at every inch of his skin.
His lungs spasmed violently, yet he couldn't breathe in a single wisp of air; the dark tide dragged him toward the abyss of drowning.
He rolled off the bed, hit the wall, and then fell heavily onto the carpet.
Zero's golden eyes suddenly lit up in the darkness.
She rushed forward and saw Lu Mingfei convulsing violently on the carpet like a fish out of water.
"Lu Mingfei?" Her voice carried an unusual air of panic.
But all she received in response was a silent struggle.
Second punishment: Burning
The suffocating feeling of waterboarding had not yet subsided when flames erupted from within him!
It wasn't just a burning sensation on the skin; every nerve ending was bursting.
The scalding magma surged through his veins, steaming his flesh and burning his bone marrow.
Millions of red-hot steel needles pierced his body simultaneously.
"Aaaaaah—!" A piercing scream tore through the night sky.
Zero gripped his convulsing hands tightly, and crystal tears kept falling.
“Tell me how I can help you!” Her voice trembled.
Despite the excruciating pain, Lu Mingfei managed to squeeze out a sentence: "Zero... stay... away from me!"
Third punishment: Wind cut
Before the words were even finished, billions of green wind blades swept in.
It wasn't the wind of nature, but a sharp blade that had solidified into a physical form, slowly torturing his soul.
There are no wounds, yet it is worse than being cut into a thousand pieces.
Each "wind" that swept by felt like a rusty, dull saw pulling back and forth across the skull.
He wanted to scream, but his throat felt like it was filled with lava, and he couldn't make a sound.
Zero hugged him tightly, her warm tears wetting his cheeks.
Fourth punishment: Buried in the earth
The torture of the wind blades had not yet ceased when a chilling, heavy pressure suddenly descended.
An invisible "soil" pressed in from all directions, as if the weight of the entire earth vein was pressing down on him.
He was buried deep in the Earth's core, so deep that even his fingertips could not tremble.
A suffocating sensation deeper than waterboarding gripped my throat, and icy despair crushed the last shred of my will to struggle.
Fifth Punishment: Mental Imprisonment
When the body is about to collapse, the cruelest punishment quietly descends.
All senses are instantly stripped away—sound, temperature, pain, even existence itself.
He was cast into eternal darkness, where time lost its meaning.
Loneliness and emptiness materialize, slowly eroding the last fragments of humanity.
The cycle of the five punishments has ended.
Lu Mingfei's soul floated in the white world, twitching like a broken rag doll.
All perceptions were shattered, and even the word "pain" seemed inadequate.
Only the utterly destroyed chaos remained, silently lamenting in the void.
At this moment, a figure in white robes and white hair walked out from beside him and looked down at Lu Mingfei lying on the ground.
"Useless!" His tone was full of disdain and disappointment.
……
It was unclear how much time had passed before Lu Mingfei's consciousness slowly returned from the torment of the five tortures.
In his hazy state, he heard a man and a woman talking.
The woman said coldly and authoritatively: "Lu Mingfei, those who dream of ascending to heaven have long been lost in the long river of history."
The man said calmly and firmly, "Then let me be the first one."
The woman scoffed, "Ridiculous! Your every move, and even all the variables of time and space, are under their control. What makes you think you can ascend to heaven?"
The man chuckled: "So what?"
The woman's tone grew colder: "I've seen too many exceptionally talented people, each one of whom is no less capable than you, yet in the end, they were all erased from existence."
The man calmly retorted, "Xuanling, you are the Holy Spirit who created this era, yet you don't even have the qualifications to ascend to heaven. Are you willing to perish with the destruction of this era?"
Xuanling's voice trembled slightly: "You..."
The man continued, his tone calm yet sharp: "You've been a dog of the 'Boundary-Stabilizing Palace' for too long, and you've long forgotten who you are—you are the Holy Spirit of Creation, and you should be above all living beings, but now you've even lost your dignity."
Xuanling laughed angrily: "Anyone can be a smooth talker."
The man chuckled: "Xuanling, do you believe that if I just say 'I'll make you my concubine,' those Heavenly Venerables will immediately agree?"
Xuanling scoffed coldly: "You?"
The man suddenly raised his voice: "Heavenly Venerable Yu, did you hear what I just said?"
In an instant, a voice transcending time and space descended, neither male nor female, ethereal and eternal—
Yu Tianzun said indifferently and majestically, "Naturally, if you are willing to enter the Dingjie Palace, I will make the decision and give Xuanling to you."
Xuanling exclaimed in shock and anger, "Your Majesty, this—"
Her voice stopped abruptly, as if forcibly sealed by some force.
Yu Tianzun continued, his tone seductive: "Lu Mingfei, as long as you nod, not only will Xuanling be yours, but I can also reshape your destroyed universe for you."
The man suddenly laughed: "Thank you for your kindness, Venerable Yu, but... I've suddenly lost interest. Xuanling's sour face is really unsightly."
Yu Tianzun was not offended: "It's alright. If you change your mind, you can come to me at any time."
As soon as he finished speaking, the oppressive aura that transcended time and space gradually dissipated.
The man laughed loudly: "See? You, the mighty Holy Spirit who created the heavens, are not even as good as a dog in their eyes."
Xuanling remained silent for a long time before finally uttering only a single cold word: "Hmph!"
After a while, Lu Mingfei, who was lying on the ground, finally regained consciousness and slowly opened his eyes.
A thick white fog enveloped everything, making it feel as if we were floating in the clouds.
Lu Mingfei slowly stood up and looked around, but all he could see was boundless clouds and mist, nothing else.
Recalling the conversation between the three people, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
It turns out that the system always had a way out—as long as he was willing to bow his head and submit, even the flawless Xuanling could only become his concubine.
But why... won't he back down?
The first rule of "Ten Elements of a Villain" flashed through my mind: "A qualified villain needs to have the courage to resist."
Just then, a cold male voice came from within the clouds—
"Lu Mingfei, I am very disappointed in you."
He recognized the voice; it was Lu Mingfei, the one who had spoken with Xuanling earlier. But now, his tone carried a chilling coldness and murderous intent.
"Have you gotten too cocky these past few days? Do you really think you're some kind of heartthrob?"
"You're nothing but a useless piece of trash who cheated with the system! All those women's infatuation with you and their changed opinions of you are just illusions created by the system!"
"You really think you're something special? Deep down, you're no different from that piece of trash who was hiding in the toilet fantasizing three days ago!"
Lu Mingfei opened his mouth, but was speechless.
