Forsaken By Love

He Lixue was looking at Mo Yunhuang, her body was slightly trembling in fear, but she was not going to let her fear take over her body and mind. 

She gritted her teeth, and she raised her head in defiance. She was not sure if Mo Yunhuang was planning on killing her, but now that she had shown her disobedience, she could not let herself become weak again.

Mo Yunhuang did not seem to be unhappy with her defiance, in fact, a slight smile appeared on his lips, and he rested his chin on his hand as he looked at her. 

"I think you do not understand your situation clearly," Mo Yunhuang said with a slight chuckle. "You are now my prisoner. You can be used against Lu Nanfeng, not only can we use you as his weakness, but you are also a traitor, so you are not going to live a pleasant life in the future. 

"You want to escape, and you have pinned all your hopes on Lu Nanfeng, but do you really think that he will be willing to sacrifice enough to get you back? I don't think so, so let us give it a try.

"I will contact Lu Nanfeng and offer him your freedom, in return for his life. Do you think he will agree?"

He Lixue's eyes widened in shock when she heard Mo Yunhuang's words, and her heart wrenched in pain. 

"I don't want that," she said with a low voice. "I would rather stay here as a prisoner for the rest of my life than knowing that Brother Nanfeng has sacrificed his life for me." 

Hearing He Lixue's words, and sensing the heart wrenching pain in her c.h.e.s.t, Mo Yunhuang's lips curled up even further, but his eyes were cold as millenium old ice. 

"Brother Nanfeng?" he asked with a smirk on his face. "It seems that you and Lu Nanfeng are very close recently, so close that you have forgotten all about us."

He Lixue glared at Mo Yunhuang. She had forgotten all her timidness and fear, her eyes were ablaze with anger, and her hands trembled while being clenched in fists.

"If you harm Nanfeng, I will never let you off," she said through gritted teeth, her eyes full of madness. 

Mo Yunhuang was uncomfortable. He Lixue was his, but she was so defensive towards a man whom she never should have had any relationship with.

Hearing how He Lixue was defending him, Mo Yunhuang's heart was aching badly, and he had an urge to destroy the entire world. 

"Lu Nanfeng was it?" Mo Yunhuang asked as he looked at He Lixue, and while he was so furious that he wanted to kill anyone around him, he quickly calmed himself down, but the sinister words that escaped his lips made He Lixue pale from fear. 

"If you like this Lu Nanfeng so much, why don't I invite him here, and then slowly show him my hospitality. I will make it an unforgettable memory, slowly tormenting him, until the point where he can no longer stand it and will succ.u.mb to death." 

He Lixue felt a chill run down her spine, and she was fearful, but she dared not say anything. She knew that he was not joking, and it seemed that whenever she opened her mouth, Mo Yunhuang was becoming more aggressive towards Lu Nanfeng.

"Not going to scold me?" Mo Yunhuang asked as he smiled at He Lixue, but the smile was not gentle at all but resembled a ferocious tiger, ready to jump in for the kill. 

"Will it make a difference?" He Lixue asked defiantly, not willing to be suppressed, but Mo Yunhuang just laughed. "No," he admitted generously.

"Knowing that Lu Nanfeng is important to you, I will naturally make him suffer a fate worse than death.

"Originally, Lu Nanfeng was of another world than us. We cannot get close to him, and it is a great risk to touch him, but now I do not need to be so careful. He has already touched what belonged to me, so it is only natural that I repay the favor."

He Lixue's brows furrowed, and she could not help but feel disgusted. She was aware that Mo Yunhuang had a strange idea that everyone he had saved belonged to him. He had a mindset that said that human life did not matter, and that even human lives could be considered tools. 

To treat another human as his possession was something that He Lixue was unable to accept, but before she had no other choice than to ignore it as she was indebted to him, however, things were now different. 

She had paid him back, she was now living a decent life, and she was not going to return to the abyss, a place where life was as cheap as a straw of grass. 

Mo Yunhuang knew that He Lixue was unhappy with being referred to as his item, but he did not care. He did not care about what methods he had to use either; he was going to ensure that He Lixue never tasted freedom again. She was to stay by his side, and when she gave up all hope of escape, he would use her to work for him once more. Her talents could not be buried forever. 

Although Mo Yunhuang was unhappy by the fact that He Lixue was close to Lu Nanfeng, he quickly overcame the feeling of being displeased, whenever he thought about the fact that He Lixue could never leave him in the future. 

Knowing that she now belonged solely to him was enough to brighten his day.
