Seeing the broadsword Jun Zi Shuo handed back, Vanishing Shadow hurriedly accepted it, his dull face revealing a trace of embarrassment.
Had he known his master wanted a blade to cut off Wang Wu Bai's manhood, he would have picked out a smaller knife that was handier and felt better in the hand.
Um...
Wang Wu Bai awoke from the pain, clutching his lower body in agony. His bloodshot eyes brimmed with hatred and fury.
But when he saw that the person before him was Jun Zi Shuo, that hatred gained several measures of shame and humiliation.
He knew what he had done to Tang Jing, and how he had indirectly driven Tang Jing to end her life in shame and indignation...
Even dying ten thousand times would not be enough to atone for his sins.
But there was one thing he had to say.
With that thought, Wang Wu Bai gritted his teeth and endured the searing pain as he spoke. "I deserve death, but it was not entirely of my own will. Someone secretly drugged me with Spring Poison, causing me to lose my senses and commit such beastly acts."
After speaking, Wang Wu Bai secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He thought that even if this explanation could not earn Jun Zi Shuo's forgiveness, it should at least temper some of his anger. Coupled with the price he had already paid by being castrated, his remaining life should be spared.
Yet Jun Zi Shuo merely spat coldly, showing no surprise at his explanation.
This made Wang Wu Bai's heart tremble with fear. He stammered, "Y-you already knew?"
Jun Zi Shuo looked at him icily. "Do you think I captured you merely to ask for a reason?"
Wang Wu Bai was utterly bewildered.
Jun Zi Shuo sneered coldly.
