Pain and Pleasure Intertwined

Wave after wave of pain crashed over Lei Dong. Just as he was on the verge of being unable to bear it, when the agony reached its peak, it miraculously transformed into an incomparably intense sensation. From his soul to his flesh, an unimaginable, surging pleasure swept over him, blissful to the extreme.

For an instant, he couldn't help wanting to sink into it for all eternity.

Just then, the Queen of Pain's whip came lashing down again. But Lei Dong's willpower was indeed formidable. He had seen what happened to Canglan Fairy, and knew that if the Whip of Pain kept lashing him without pause, he would sink deeper and deeper into that pleasure no ordinary person could control, until he was utterly lost beneath the Queen of Pain's skirts, like a dog better off dead.

Lei Dong fought back with every ounce of his will, but what horrified him was that, deep down, he had already begun to crave it.

Even with willpower as strong as his, resisting this was extremely difficult. No wonder Canglan Fairy had succumbed. Lei Dong could now understand, at least to some extent, just how terrifying it was.

Fortunately, Lei Dong had a trump card. At this most perilous, most critical moment, he summoned his memories of Wan Yan. He remembered her face and voice, and the baby in her womb—a little girl who would grow up sweet and adorable. In an instant, Lei Dong's consciousness cleared considerably, freeing him from desire's hold over his body.

His figure blurred, leaving afterimages as he darted dozens of yards away. Crack! The Whip of Pain struck empty air. The Queen of Pain paused in surprise, never expecting the Giant Strength Devil King to break free of her control so quickly. It was practically a miracle.
