The deepest part of the water dungeon.
Cold, damp, foul-smelling.
Drip, drip...
Water trickled down the moss-covered rock wall and fell into the filthy water below, making a monotonous, oppressive sound.
It was the only sound in this deathly silent space.
There was no light in the cell.
Only endless darkness.
Xiao Yang's Double Pupils pierced the darkness and the restrictions, allowing him to see clearly inside.
It was a young girl.
A gaunt, tattered girl who was almost unrecognizable as human.
Her body had been fixed to a cold wall in an intensely humiliating position.
