Little White Lotus’ Record of Courting Disaster

Advertisement

The girl, affected by the specially crafted tendon softening powder, lacked even the strength to speak. She could only slump weakly against her.

The narrow path was rough and bumpy, and the carriage ride was jolting. Yao Yue extended a fingertip, lingering on the girl’s fluttering eyelids. Her tone was teasing as she said, “Little miss, you need to be careful.”

“With one wrong move, your eyes might just go blind, okay?”

Youyou: …

Her pupils contracted, and Youyou looked into Yao Yue’s eyes with a glare of hatred.

Separated from the mother gu, Youyou became overcome with a sense of emptiness and anxiety, subjecting her to unspeakable torment, inspiring in her a murderous aura.

Tears, transparent and pearl-like, continued to flow from Youyou’s eyes, her gaze turning bloodshot. Even her usually smooth forehead was now covered in a sheen of sweat due to her silent struggle.

Seeing Youyou exhibit such an appearance sent Yao Yue into a dangerously manic mood.

She tried her best to control herself so that she didn’t let herself do something that really hurt the young girl, but Yao Yue couldn’t hold back in the end and fiercely kissed her lips, in order to vent the murderous intent in her heart and, … the undeniable pain.

The girl’s lips are quite sweet, and the sweetness confuses Yao Yue. In the past, she would take advantage of Youyou’s sleep to caress her lightly, so as to make sure Youyou wouldn’t push her away, but now, Yao Yue felt a bit off.

Covering Youyou’s eyes with one hand, and undoing her robes with the other, Yao Yue buried her head in Youyou’s collarbone and nibbled angrily, her movements become wilder and rougher.

“Is Bai Youyou, the Holy maiden of Saint Lin Palace?”

No wonder she looks so good.

Turns out she’s the number one beauty in the world.

The damp feeling on her palm stopped Yao Yue in her tracks.

Removing her hand, as expected, Youyou was already sobbing tragically.

Yao Yue：……

“Why are you crying?”

With a stern expression, Yao Yue scolded her fiercely.

“I just felt like crying, okay?”

She felt cheated by her, emotionally, physically, and mentally. How could she not feel wronged?

She carefully straightened Youyou’s disheveled clothes and then held her gently on the seat.

Using a handkerchief, she wiped away the tears from the girl’s eyes, one by one.

“You heartless little thing, so mischievous and deceitful.”

If it were anyone else, she would have had them dragged out and beheaded already, but this person – for her punishment, she had to take care of it personally.

They encountered several assassination attempts along the way. Yet, in Yao Yue’s mind, none of these struggling wretches were as infuriating as Youyou.

The effects of the tendon softening powder had worn off Youyou, and she was constantly trying to break free from Yao Yue’s grasp to seek out that damned woman named “Lan Deng.”

Every time Yao Yue stopped her, Youyou would respond with punches, kicks, fierce bites, curses, and even scratching her with her claw-like nails.

The originally charmingly seductive face had been scratched and bitten all over by the girl, and they would probably leave marks for several months.

Finally, unable to bear the torment any longer, Yao Yue directly fed the girl more tendon softening powder, rendering her limply immobile in the carriage, while she herself rode behind the carriage. Her subordinates, noticing their master’s strange mood, rode a safe distance away, killing any assassins that popped up from time to time.

Once her anger had subsided, she returned to the carriage and resumed holding onto Youyou.

In this way, the cycle continued until they arrived at the entrance of the Demonic Sect. After settling Youyou in, Yao Yue immediately ordered someone to bring Lan Deng over, intending to interrogate her thoroughly.

During this period, due to Yao Yue’s deliberate neglect, Bai Gu, Bai Ling, and Lan Deng all suffered greatly, with Lan Deng, who had an injured wrist, being the worst off.

Her Miao attire was already soiled and disheveled, her once lively and bright eyes now appearing dull and defeated.

Inside the stone-built pavilion, Yao Yue held a cup in her hand, casually looking at Lan Deng kneeling on the ground, her tone calm and serene.

“Speak, what have you done to little Youyou?”

Perhaps initially, Yao Yue didn’t notice anything amiss. However, throughout the journey, Youyou’s irrational behavior, akin to that of a wild animal, eventually caught Yao Yue’s attention. After all, while it might be possible that Youyou had truly fallen for Lan Deng, the way she acted, screaming and going berserk when she couldn’t see Lan Deng, and even biting her, was indeed quite eerie.

Considering Lan Deng’s identity as a Miaojiang girl, Yao Yue had begun to formulate a guess.

However, she needed to confirm it.

With a bewitching glint in her eyes, Yao Yue sipped her tea, seemingly unperturbed by the thought that Lan Deng might not talk.

Lan Deng was someone who was afraid of death, and Yao Yue had discerned this about her since their first meeting.

In the Vermillion Bird country’s territory, the Demonic sect only experienced spring and summer throughout the year, making it extremely hot. Therefore, as the scorching sun reached its zenith, a mixture of sweat and a sour odor started emanating from Lan Deng’s body. Yao Yue furrowed her brow, paused her tea-drinking, and even Lan Deng herself couldn’t bear it any longer.

With a gloomy expression, Lan Deng opened her eyes and asked with a sense of resignation, “If I tell you, will you spare me?”

In this wicked place where human lives were as insignificant as grass and Yao Yue’s killings and tortures were not punishable by law, Lan Deng yearned to return to a modern society full of harmony, love, civilization, justice, and plenty of soft girls, where there was no martial arts.

The pain in her wrist was still piercing, and as Lan Deng gazed at the captivating yet cruel Yao Yue before her, she couldn’t summon any emotions of attraction anymore.

Indeed, Lan Deng wasn’t a masochist. Even though her intentions were questionable at first, and she might have had ulterior motives, the punishments she had endured were already more than enough.

“Spare you?”

As if she had heard something amusing, Yao Yue chuckled lightly, but her expression grew colder, and her tone less patient.

“Lan Deng, have you always been this naive? I don’t know if I’ll spare you, but I’m certain that if you don’t talk, I’ll end your life.”

Lan Deng: …

How had she let herself be blinded by her own feelings and fall for this demon?

“It’s the love gu.”

In a hoarse voice, Lan Deng recounted the whole story from start to finish. Of course, she concealed the fact about the system, explaining that she had used the love gu because she had developed strong feelings for Yao Yue and had mistaken her for someone else that night – she mistook her for Bai Youyou.

With a keen eye, Lan Deng noticed that Yao Yue’s expression was growing worse, and there was a hint of impending explosion. Lan Deng nervously continued,

“Um, now I really don’t have feelings for you anymore, truly. Also, if you kill me, Bai Youyou will die too.”

She had added this condition to the love gu in secret, all in a desperate attempt to save her life.

She anxiously awaited the final verdict, and when she heard that she would be taken away for further supervision, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The scorching heat of summer was intense, but Yao Yue felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

“Love gu?”

She had never considered that the girl had endured this suffering on her behalf, controlled by some disgusting insect or whatever it was. The thought was unbearable for Yao Yue.

“Immediately send someone to Miao Territory for the antidote. If anyone resists, show them no mercy.”

In her chilling tone, there was an unbridled aura of ruthlessness. A shadow concealed in the darkness nodded in response. In an instant, he disappeared from sight.

…

Stepping into the Demon Moon Tower, a chilling sensation instantly enveloped her.

Yao Yue held her breath as she approached the bedside. As expected, the girl was teary-eyed from crying again. It seemed that she was genuinely tormented by the love gu. However, if letting the girl go would mean she would be together with Lan Deng, Yao Yue would rather see her die.

“I just saw Lan Deng.”

As soon as she heard Lan Deng’s name, Youyou, lying on the bed, immediately stopped crying. She stared intently at Yao Yue, her black eyes filled with eagerness.

“Heh, on ordinary days, you never listen to anything I say, nor do you seem to understand anything I say.

Yet, I merely mentioned Lan Deng’s name in passing, and you suddenly calmed down.”

Feeling a mix of emotions, Yao Yue leisurely removed her outer garment and got onto the bed beside Youyou.

“Do you know you’re under the effect of the love gu?”

“Do you even realize how you look right now?”

“Do you know how much I want to kill you, just to end it all?”

Under the influence of the love gu, she couldn’t communicate at all. She was like a wild beast, her heart and eyes filled with thoughts of Lan Deng. It was as if Lan Deng was her ultimate belonging.

But in reality, she belonged to Yao Yue.

Lying on her side, Yao Yue gazed closely at the girl beside her.

She noticed how the girl’s once clear and pure eyes had become cloudy and chaotic, and her heart ached.

Just at that moment, the effects of the tendon softening powder wore off.

Youyou, sensing her regained mobility, immediately wanted to follow the guidance in her heart to go find Lan Deng. However, Yao Yue reacted faster.

She swiftly rolled over, pinning Youyou beneath her and clamping down on her hands to prevent her from moving.

“Argh, arrghhh!!”

It was this person who was repeatedly stopping her from finding Lan Deng. Youyou screamed in anger, biting down on Yao Yue’s shoulder with all her might.

“Hiss—”

Bitter, metallic-tasting blood quickly filled her mouth. Youyou’s eyes turned red as if she wanted to bite off a chunk of Yao Yue’s flesh.

“Bai, You, You!”

Using her skills, Yao Yue managed to break free from the girl. She furrowed her brow and used her free hand to press the girl’s head onto the bed, asking her, word by word,

“Do you like Lan Deng so much? Do you really want to see her?”

At this moment, Yao Yue’s expression was one of incomprehensible and disdainful sorrow for Youyou.

When she heard the mention of Lan Deng, Youyou became excited and urgently shouted,

“I like her! I want to see her! I need Lan Deng!”

At this moment, Youyou resembled a desperate addict at the end of her rope, and Lan Deng was the only antidote that could rescue her from her suffering.

“You like her?”

As if she had heard the world’s biggest joke, Yao Yue burst into laughter, tears welling up in her eyes.

She gripped the girl’s neck, gradually tightening her grip, forcing her to look at her.

“Bai Youyou, do you know what you like? You like a bug, do you hear me? A bug!”

“All this talk about Lan Deng, Lan Deng, Bai Youyou, you better ask yourself properly, do you really like Lan Deng, or is it the bug inside Lan Deng’s body that you like?”
