Chapter 163 The Truth
For six consecutive days and nights without rest, worrying about not hearing Su Chen's whistle when he blew it, the Big Landlord was always on edge with her nerves stretched tight.
Now, she was already extremely exhausted.
Yet, she was still an Extraordinary Realm Martial Artist.
If it were any of the other ladies, they would probably have collapsed before Su Chen even returned.
However, she had already forced the girls to rest once or twice.
Among them, Zhao Di had endured the longest.
She had only gone back to rest once.
Su Chen had taken on the challenge of Hell's Trio because of her, so naturally, she had to stay on guard continuously.
Next in endurance was because her physical condition was much stronger than Aduo's and Lin Xi's, so the Big Landlord didn't forcibly send her back again.
But it had been three days and three nights since her last rest.
Even Zhao Di's strong physique couldn't withstand it.
So, once again, the Big Landlord had Aduo forcefully take Zhao Di home to rest. Zhao Di didn't want to leave; she wanted to stay by Su Chen's side.
There was no other choice. The Big Landlord could only have Aduo forcefully bring Zhao Di back home.
With the long nights of staying awake, not just Lin Xi, but also the Big Landlord Aduo had dark circles emerging under their eyes.
"Brother, you must succeed," Aduo prayed, clasping her hands together and kneeling on the ground.
The next morning, there were only a few hours left until the end of Su Chen's challenge.
As soon as Zhao Di woke up, her first thought was to see Su Chen.
But to her discovery, her mother was just sitting on the chair in the house.
"Mother, why are you here?" Zhao Di softly called out.
Her mother's expression was a bit entangled, as if she had something to say to Zhao Di but was afraid to speak.
Zhao Di was anxious about Su Chen, so she didn't think much of it.
Getting up, dressing, ready to leave.
"Zhao Di..." Finally, her mother spoke.
"Mother, is there something wrong?" Zhao Di, in her hurry to leave, flashed a trace of impatience in her eyes.
"Actually... A'shi isn't bad."
Zhao Di's brows slightly furrowed, no longer wanting to say more, and walked straight out of the house.
"Good, you know your place. You should know, if people find out that you tampered with the whistle, you will be subjected to the most terrible punishment, and moreover, Zhao Di will hate you for a lifetime," A'tu entered the room with a vicious smile.
Just now, when her mother was about to reveal the truth to Zhao Di, A'tu suddenly stood at the door. This content is hosted at M|V|LE^MPYR.
"Yo, where are you going, my wife?" Before Zhao Di stepped out of the house, a figure blocked her way.
"I'm not your wife, please do not talk nonsense," Zhao Di's face looked dreadful.
"Still waiting for him? It's been several days? Even I can only last six days, could you possibly think he can last longer than me? At this time, he's probably already dead," A'shi mocked with a smile.
"He won't die!" Zhao Di clenched her teeth.
A'shi's gaze turned cold, he snorted lightly: "Zhao Di, I advise you to just marry me obediently, that way, you can suffer less. Otherwise, they are your fate."
Zhao Di followed the direction A'shi pointed.
She saw the two women A'shi had brought back, both tied to chairs; one of the women's mouth kept opening and closing, blood flowing from her mouth—her tongue had been pulled out!
Another one, her left eye had actually become a bloody socket.
"Why, why do you treat them this way, what did they do wrong!" Seeing the tragic state of the two women, Zhao Di's tears were spinning in her eyes.
"They did nothing wrong. I just thought, her tongue was so pretty, so I cut it off and then kept it as a treasure," A-Shi said with an evil smile as he pointed to the woman whose tongue had been pulled out.
"And her, she had the most beautiful eyes, so I dug one of her eyes out," A-Shi said again, pointing at the woman whose eye had been gouged out.
"Devil, you are the devil!" Zhao Di's body was shaking violently.
This was no longer the A-Shi she knew.
He had become cruel and violent.
Because the tongue was pretty, he pulled it out, because the eyes were beautiful, he dug them out...
If she were to marry him, Zhao Di dare not imagine what would happen.
"Rest assured, Zhao Di, you are the woman I truly like. I obviously can't treat you the same way, of course, it all depends on whether you cooperate or not," A-Shi said with a sinister smile.
"I will not marry you!" Even though she was very scared, Zhao Di still spoke with firm resolve.
She had never been willing to marry A-Shi, and after seeing his cruelty, it was even less possible.
"This... makes me a bit heartbroken..." A-Shi said, moving step by step towards Zhao Di with a spine-chilling smile on his face.
"What, what are you going to do..." Zhao Di was somewhat afraid under A-Shi's gaze.
Although A-Shi was only as tall as her waist, she knew the terror of A-Shi.
"What am I going to do? Of course, play with my wife," A-Shi said with a sinister laugh.
"I, I am not your wife, and I won't play with you!" A hint of fear appeared in Zhao Di's eyes.
"Hehe, I know why you're unwilling to marry me. You're still waiting for that young man to succeed in the challenge, right? Let me tell you the truth, he's already dead!" A-Shi sneered.
"No, he won't be dead!"
Seeing Zhao Di so convinced that Su Chen was still alive, A-Shi lifted the corners of his mouth, saying, "Do you think he can really hold on because he didn't blow the whistle?"
"What do you mean?" Zhao Di's face changed.
"Do you still not understand what I mean? That whistle, it simply can't be blown," A-Shi said with a smile.
A-Tu had told A-Shi about the tampering with the whistle.
Although he believed that he could defeat Su Chen on his own merits, since A-Tu had already done it, there was no need for him to act.
Su Chen dared to compete with him for a woman and was already on his must-kill list.
After hearing what A-Shi said, Zhao Di staggered, almost falling to the ground.
No wonder Su Chen had not blown the whistle.
It turned out that the whistle had been tampered with.
"So, you don't need to wait for him to come back. I'm afraid he's long dead. Be my woman obediently, and in the future, you will have endless wealth and luxury. Even the Big Landlord won't compare with you," A-Shi said as he cornered Zhao Di step by step.
Upon hearing the news that the whistle had been tampered with, Zhao Di was completely stunned.
By the time she had come back to her senses, she had already been picked up by A-Shi.
Although A-Shi was short, he had significant strength.
Zhao Di was 1.75 meters tall and had a solid build, not too heavy, but still weighed a full 120 pounds.
Yet A-Shi lifted her without any effort.
At this moment, A-Shi was clearly no longer an ordinary person, but a Martial Artist.
"You, let me go, let me go!" Zhao Di struggled, trying to hit A-Shi, but sadly, A-Shi was too short and now held her aloft, her hands couldn't even touch A-Shi's head.
