99: You need to hurry.

With a fatal crisis imminent, Xie Chen was filled with extreme fear, kneeling and begging an enemy for mercy for the first time in his life.

Shen Lian stepped up to Xie Chen, looked at his humble appearance, and directly raised his left hand, pressing his palm onto his crown.

"This piece of Ice Spirit Qi Armor is not something trash like you deserves to possess. Hand it over now!"

With a deep shout, Shen Lian grabbed Xie Chen's hair tightly.

In an instant, a cold radiance erupted around Xie Chen, and crystalline snowflakes even began to drift in the air.

"Ah～"

Xie Chen let out a painful wail, and immediately, the Ice Spirit Qi Armor within his body turned into a stream of light, flowing from his crown into Shen Lian's palm, entering his body in the blink of an eye.

"trash!"

After obtaining the Ice Spirit Qi Armor, Shen Lian directly lifted Xie Chen up and tossed him into mid-air, then struck out with a palm.

Bang— The palm force struck Xie Chen's chest, instantly shattering four ribs. His body flew out like a kite, slamming heavily against the stone wall.

"Pfft..." Xie Chen fell to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

At this moment, his consciousness was gradually blurring, and he could only see Shen Lian's figure approaching him step by step.

"Senior... where exactly... did this Junior offend you... why must you... target this Junior so... even if I am to die, please let this Junior die knowing why..."

As a result, no sooner had Xie Chen finished speaking than his body was uncontrollably pulled into mid-air by Shen Lian.

"Take a good look, you trash. Do you still remember me?"

Upon hearing this, Xie Chen struggled to look at that arrogant face. It seemed somewhat familiar, but he could not recall where he had seen it.

"Three years ago, you and that bitch Liu Yixue humiliated me at the back mountain of the Heavenly Feather Sect. Have you forgotten?"

With Shen Lian's reminder, Xie Chen suddenly remembered.

Back then, he had followed Liu Yixue back to the Heavenly Feather Sect and stayed for half a month. During that half-month, he had joined Ye Fan in oppressing Shen Lian, who had already become trash.

He vaguely remembered that Shen Lian was wearing tattered clothes at the time, appearing humble and easy to bully.

Just because Shen Lian wanted to say a few words to Liu Yixue, he had forced him to jump off a cliff and repeatedly forced Shen Lian to drink poison.

Later, when Liu Yixue found out about this, he thought he would inevitably be punished, but unexpectedly, Liu Yixue showed an expression of approval for how he treated Shen Lian.

She even took the initiative to teach Shen Lian a lesson herself, forcefully throwing him into the Wind Rift Valley for three full days and nights.

However, at the time, he did not know Shen Lian's identity, nor had he ever heard Liu Yixue mention such a person.

As for Shen Lian, he remembered Xie Chen's face vividly; whether it was someone he owed a debt of gratitude to or someone he had a grudge against, even if they turned to ashes, they would not be erased from his mind.

It was just that the predecessor in his memories did not know that it was Xie Chen who had nearly finished him off. Only upon seeing this face did Shen Lian realize his identity.

"Hahaha, the ant you oppressed three years ago can now control your life and death. Xie Chen, how does it feel to be humble to the point of dust? Those who offend Shen Lian never have a good ending."

Xie Chen begged bitterly: "Shen Lian, I'm sorry. I apologize to you for my past behavior. I only ask that you give me a chance to make amends. I will definitely compensate you well."

"What can trash like you use to compensate me? An apology? Do you know you were wrong? No! You just know you are about to die!"

After Shen Lian finished speaking, he directly activated the great dao human sovereign cauldron, intending to send Xie Chen into the cauldron to refine him for forty-nine days and then turn him into a tribulation crossing pill.

But just as Shen Lian was about to deliver the fatal blow, the projection jade slip at Xie Chen's waist emitted a faint blue light.

"Hm?" Upon seeing the three characters "Liu Yixue" on the projection jade slip, Shen Lian exclaimed in surprise and immediately withdrew the human emperor cauldron.

Xie Chen, who had originally closed his eyes waiting for death, felt the scorching aura around him quickly recede, and only then did he slowly open his eyes.

Shen Lian took the projection jade slip from his waist and handed it to Xie Chen: "Open it. Answer the call."

Seeing that it was Liu Yixue calling him, a glimmer of hope for life suddenly emerged in Xie Chen's heart. He immediately pressed his finger onto the jade slip...

On the other side, Liu Yixue, who had just arrived at the Ice and Snow Sect, was still immersed in the romantic scene Xie Chen had prepared for her yesterday—or rather, the day before yesterday.

Therefore, after returning to the Sect, the first thing she did was change into cool clothing, then lie on the bed, immediately taking out the projection jade slip, eager to see Xie Chen.

As the saying goes, a day apart is like three autumns. Just as the projection jade slip was connected and an image appeared in the Void Realm, Liu Yixue did not forget to tidy her black hair, a shy expression appearing on her face.

"Chener!" When Xie Chen's face appeared before the screen formed by Spiritual Qi, Liu Yixue showed a sweet smile and called out softly.

But the next moment, her smile froze directly on her face.

At this moment, the Xie Chen in the image was decadent and disheveled, covered in wounds; compared to the dashing and unrestrained man she had parted with the day before yesterday, it was like heaven and earth.

"Revered Master! Save me!"

"Chener, what on earth happened? Tell me!"

"Revered Master, I..." Xie Chen wanted to say something more, but suddenly the image shook violently.

Liu Yixue sat up straight; she could even faintly hear the sound of Xie Chen's wailing.

"Chener, Chener! What is wrong with you? Don't scare your Revered Master!"

Liu Yixue was at a loss, and just at this moment, the projection jade slip that had fallen to the ground was picked up by someone.

The next moment, an arrogant and cold face appeared in the image.

"Who are you! Why are you attacking Chener? Do you know what kind of existence you have provoked!"

Due to the stereotypical impression of Shen Lian over the past hundred years, even though Liu Yixue had heard about Shen Lian's changes today, she did not recognize him at first glance, only feeling that this man looked somewhat familiar and was extremely handsome.

"Liu Yixue, you bitch, do you not even recognize me?"

"You are..." Liu Yixue scrutinized Shen Lian in the image for a moment.

Before long, her pupils suddenly constricted: "It's you? Shen Lian!"

"Hahahaha! Liu Yixue, I heard that your wedding day is in one more day, but I am very sorry; you will not be able to be the young mistress of Yuntian City, but you could consider becoming a widow, remaining a widow for this trash until you die."

Liu Yixue immediately stood up and shouted sternly at Shen Lian: "Shen Lian, I warn you, if you dare to touch a single hair on Chener again, I will definitely not let you go!"

Shen Lian: "Then I would like to see how you, a bitch, intend to not let me go!"

After saying this, he pulled Xie Chen over, and then, in front of Liu Yixue, directly twisted Xie Chen's left arm with a claw.

"Ah—" Accompanied by the crisp sound of bone cracking echoing, Xie Chen instantly let out a painful roar.

"Chener! Shen Lian! Don't hurt him! You cannot hurt him!"

Witnessing the cruel scene of Shen Lian torturing Xie Chen, Liu Yixue was so anxious she couldn't sit still, repeatedly telling Shen Lian to stop.

"Let me stop? Then I will satisfy you!"

Shen Lian truly released his grip on Xie Chen, then raised his leg and kicked, snapping his right leg on the spot.

However, this time Xie Chen did not cry out again. Because he had passed out directly from the pain.

"Anything else to say? You might as well say it all at once!"

"Shen Lian, please don't hurt Chener anymore; he is really important to me!"

"Only a bitch like you would fancy such trash!"

"Shen Lian, I know I broke my promise and failed you, but matters of the heart really cannot be forced."

"Hahaha, how touching. Fine, then I will give you a chance, a chance to save your adulterer!"

Liu Yixue: "Really? Are you really willing to give me a chance?"

Shen Lian glanced at the unconscious Xie Chen and couldn't help but curl his lips: "Before midnight tomorrow, rush to Guyue Peak. If you are one step late, you will never see your trash husband again."

Then, without another word, he kicked Xie Chen, who had just regained consciousness, knocking him unconscious again.

"Don't hurt Chener!"

"You care about him so much? You really want happiness, want to be a pair of lovebirds? Then, of course, I must fulfill your wishes, hahahaha!"
