Chapter 20: Chapter 20: Put on the Collar, Xiao Wu is Numb
"You can't handle just one Eight Stage Drop?"
Xue Tianyu held onto the rabbit leg, looking coldly at Xiao Wu.
"You..."
Xiao Wu had been slammed so hard that she couldn't even form a complete sentence.
Without wasting words, Xue Tianyu swung her leg through the air again, like whipping a belt, creating a beautiful pink arc.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Xiao Wu coughed up a mouthful of old blood.
Her wounds, which had just begun to heal, were now showing signs of tearing again.
"Stop... Stop throwing me... It hurts..."
Xiao Wu finally became obedient, pitifully pleading, "I... I just wanted to get close to you..."
Being brutally slammed like this by Xue Tianyu had once again left her severely injured.
Though Xue Tianyu hadn't truly mastered the essence of the Eight Stage Drop, even after slamming her so many times, the actual damage was still not as high as if Xiao Wu had performed a full combo on someone else.
But Xue Tianyu could just keep slamming her.
Xiao Wu had no power to resist at all.
This left her in immense pain.
Wait, something was wrong with this plot...
She was supposed to be the one ruthlessly slamming Xue Tianyu, crippling him, and then walking away satisfied.
How did things turn out like this?
Xiao Wu clearly saw the flicker of desire in Xue Tianyu's eyes earlier.
That shouldn't have been fake.
She had tempted him so much, and yet he still wasn't lured in?
Could it be...
Was this just the kind of person Xue Tianyu was?
Did he only find satisfaction through methods like this?
Who in the world would dare be his woman?
Would he destroy a different woman every night?
Xiao Wu was numb.
"You... Don't be so violent, Xiao Wu won't be able to serve you properly."
Seeing Xue Tianyu stop, Xiao Wu thought the torment was finally over and quickly begged for mercy.
"Xiao Wu really just wanted to get close to you. If you don't believe me, I can take off my clothes right now..."
"Get close?"
Xue Tianyu chuckled, his smile ice-cold.
His gaze swept over Xiao Wu's highly alluring pink attire, yet there was no trace of desire in his eyes.
"You just wanted to use this as an opportunity to get close to me, then hit me with a Charm-infused Eight Stage Drop, didn't you?"
"Did you really think I was that stupid?"
Xiao Wu was dumbfounded.
So, in the end, the clown was actually her.
He had been pretending to fall for it from the very start.
And she had even been excited about it.
For the first time, Xiao Wu felt that she was utterly foolish.
"Let... Let me go. Otherwise, if I ever get the chance, I will never forgive you!"
Now that all pretenses were gone, Xiao Wu stopped acting.
But the price of this was another fierce slam from Xue Tianyu.
"Ahh!!"
Xiao Wu clearly heard her bones shattering.
"Never forgive me?" Xue Tianyu sneered as if he'd just heard the funniest joke in the world. "Look around. Who do you think is in control here?"
"It should be me saying I won't let you go!"
A flash of fear appeared in Xiao Wu's eyes.
Her throat burned, and she vomited dark blood.
It was internal hemorrhaging.
This time, Xue Tianyu had inflicted the most severe injury she had ever suffered.
In an instant, she became completely submissive.
As long as there was life, there was hope.
She had to beg for mercy.
"I'm a student of Shrek Academy. If you harm a student from another participating academy during the competition, you'll be banned from future tournaments..."
"Even if not for me, you should consider Tianshui Academy's reputation..."
"Please, let me go. We can pretend this never happened."
Xue Tianyu listened to Xiao Wu's soft voice, but his heart remained unmoved. "So now it's 'unauthorized harm,' huh?"
"But you were the one who provoked me first."
"What? You can bully others, but they can't fight back?"
"That's not what I meant... I..."
Xiao Wu stared blankly, unable to find an excuse.
Seeing her like this, Xue Tianyu knew he had broken her mental defenses.
Now was the time to deliver the final blow.
"Besides, you're a soul beast. Do you think anyone would believe you?"
Xiao Wu was horrified.
That was her deepest secret.
Not even Tang San knew this ultimate truth!
"You... What are you talking about? I'm human..."
Xiao Wu still tried to deny it.
Xue Tianyu didn't waste words. A powerful aura burst forth—Title Douluo!
"You... You're actually...!"
Xiao Wu never expected that the captain of the Tianshui Academy team was actually a Title Douluo!
She wasn't surprised that a Title Douluo could see through her disguise.
But this one was way too young...
"I'm finished..."
Xiao Wu finally grasped the reality of her situation.
Too naive.
She had actually thought she could seek revenge on a Title Douluo. How foolish.
Now, she was truly doomed.
"What now? Cat got your tongue? Weren't you quite fierce just now?"
Xue Tianyu slapped Xiao Wu's face.
His goal was simple: capture Xiao Wu and use her to lure out Yu Xiaogang.
Let that old bastard experience why the flowers bloom so red.
Destroy the thing Bibi Dong cherished most.
"No... Please don't kill me..."
Terror flooded Xiao Wu's heart.
For the first time, she felt so close to death that she couldn't help but sob.
A soul beast with malicious intent—Xue Tianyu felt no pity.
He conveniently pulled out a black collar, a recent reward from signing in after defeating Tang San.
The most terrifying part was that under the collar's control, Xiao Wu remained fully aware of her actions. No matter how much she resisted internally, she could only watch helplessly as her body followed orders.
The sky was collapsing...
Xiao Wu clearly felt that every movement she made was under his control. Even the most unreasonable command would be obeyed.
She couldn't resist. She couldn't defy.
It was as if Xue Tianyu was her absolute master.
Anyone would find this unbearable.
Especially someone like Xiao Wu, a hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast in human form—reduced to this? It was unthinkable.
"No, you can't do this! I was wrong! Please, let me go! I'll agree to anything! Just please, let me go!"
But Xue Tianyu merely gazed at her indifferently, showing no reaction.
Seeing this, Xiao Wu bit her lip and took a deep breath.
She understood that she had no way to escape for now.
If she could just see Brother San, she might have a chance!
Hugging herself tightly, Xiao Wu lowered her head and continuously reassured herself.
'Xiao Wu, you have to endure this humiliation and survive. You must see Brother San again...'
She wished she could go back in time and slap herself.
Why did she have to provoke Xue Tianyu?
Now, she was trapped in this humiliating predicament...
At this moment, Xiao Wu was utterly regretful.
