Chapter 999: Torturing Jiang Ying Brutally 6

That was his father. How could he do such a thing? He must be doing it for a reason.

“Ying’er, bear with it for a little while… we can both survive this way. Nothing else matters as long as we’re alive.” Lord Jiang’s hands were shaking. He took the spoon-like instrument from Feng Tianlan’s subordinate as he spoke in a trembling voice.

After hearing what he said, Jiang Ying’s eyes widened abruptly and he looked at his father in disbelief. “Father!”

Feng Tianlan went back to her seat while Si Mobai cleaned her hands for her, wiping them personally. He then put a peeled grape into her mouth. “Lord Jiang, stop talking rubbish if you plan to do it. My time is precious.”

“Is it sour?” Si Mobai raised his head and asked Feng Tianlan in a gentle tone.

Feng Tianlan shook her head and pointed at her chest with a smile. “It’s sweet.” She felt a sweetness in her heart because he was around.

Si Mobai chuckled after seeing what she did. He then continued feeding her grapes, as if everything that was happening had nothing to do with him.

Lord Jiang lowered his head and looked at the bone-digging tool in his hand. He then spoke in a trembling voice, saying, “Ying’er, I am sorry. The most important thing is staying alive. Besides, I once told you that the heavens destroy those who don’t look out for themselves! After this incident, you must try to understand what choices are most beneficial to you.”

Nothing else mattered as long as one could stay alive.

As long as he was alive, even if he was disabled, there would still be a chance for him to make a comeback and get his revenge!

Shen Qingdai was the best example of this. Not only did she not die, but she also made a comeback. She even had the Demon King by her side.

Therefore, as long as he’s alive, there would be countless possibilities ahead of him.

“Father…” Jiang Ying looked at Lord Jiang in utter disbelief. At that moment, he wasn’t able to say the words that he had been planning to say out loud anymore. That feeling was much more frightening and painful than having his kneecap dug out.

His father was his kin. They shared the same blood.

“I am sorry.” Lord Jiang raised the bone-digging tool and aimed it at Jiang Ying’s kneecap. He then dug it straight in…

“Ah!” Jiang Ying screamed pathetically. That bone-piercing pain knocked him unconscious once again.

“No!” Lady Jiang screamed out in despair. When she saw a big piece of Jiang Ying’s kneecap being dug out with the tool, she forgot the pain she experienced having the same thing done to hers. Her eyes then rolled into the back of her head and she passed out.

Feng Tianlan watched this scene in an indifferent manner. She seemed to have returned to the day three years ago when she was the one having her kneecap dug out. That betrayal was filled with sadness and despair.

Now, it was finally Jiang Ying’s turn to experience that feeling!

Three years!

Although it was a little late, the day had still arrived. Her three years of perseverance and waiting weren’t wasted!

Jiang Ying and Lady Jiang were jolted back from unconsciousness once again by the saltwater. When Lady Jiang came around, she ignored her own pain and snarled angrily at Lord Jiang.

“Father… How could… you…?” Jiang Ying felt really upset. It felt like the fatherly love that he had always believed in had crumbled in an instant. He would rather suffer the pain of having his kneecaps dug out than hurt them.

In the end, his father decided to compromise and dig Jiang Ying’s kneecap out right after having it happen to one of his own. Was this his father’s true color?

Was this the kinship that he had believed in and protected all this time?

Jiang Ying really couldn’t accept this kind of betrayal. He really couldn’t take it!

“I have dug it out. Can you let us go now?” Lord Jiang looked at Feng Tianlan and his hands were shivering.

Feng Tianlan stood up and looked at Jiang Ying’s kneecap. “You haven’t finished getting everything out. You can go ahead and keep digging.”

“You…”

“I never said that I will let you go after only digging once,” Feng Tianlan said in an indifferent tone. She then raised her head and looked at Jiang Ying with a sinister smile, asking, “How does it feel like to get betray by your family?”
