"You! You're going too far."
Yu Xiaogang watched Liu Erlong being controlled with just one hand, his face turning ashen. He had clearly kicked a steel plate this time.
"Going too far? Are you even human?"
Qian Renchuan chuckled. They came to trouble him, yet they accused him of going too far. Did they expect him to let them beat him up so it wouldn't be considered going too far?
"You!"
Just as Yu Xiaogang was about to retort, he heard Liu Erlong cry out in pain, and he immediately deflated.
Qian Renchuan also noticed Liu Erlong's constant struggles, a flicker of impatience in his eyes. He directly punched Liu Erlong in the abdomen, then grabbed her face and flung her away.
As Liu Erlong was thrown out, she landed in a deep pit, somewhat incontinent.
After enduring suffocation, she finally breathed in air again, greedily gasping, seemingly unaware of the incontinent filth covering her lower body.
"Hiss."
Once she recovered, Liu Erlong smelled a pungent, foul odor and immediately realized her abnormality.
Just as she tried to stand up, a tearing pain in her lower abdomen made her unable to straighten her back. She hunched over and slowly walked to Yu Xiaogang's side.
But then she saw Yu Xiaogang's brow suddenly furrow, clearly disgusted by her smell.
She immediately glared at Qian Renchuan with resentment. It was all because of this boy that she had made a fool of herself in front of Xiao Gang.
"Now, for every step you retreat, you must kowtow to us. Only after nine kowtows can you leave."
Qian Renchuan didn't care how useless Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang thought he was. If his father hadn't wanted to see a show, he would have slapped these two good-for-nothings to death long ago.
"Even if we die, we won't do that."
Liu Erlong was unyielding, giving off an impression of rather dying than submitting. Then, with eyes full of expectation, she looked at Yu Xiaogang and asked, "Xiao Gang, isn't that right?"
Right my ass!
Yu Xiaogang cursed inwardly. You don't want to live, but I do! My ideals haven't been realized yet.
If he died now, he would truly be unwilling.
He couldn't help but regret bringing Liu Erlong along; she was simply brainless.
He had already prepared to kneel and surrender, but now she was acting tough.
However, to save his life and his insignificant pride, Yu Xiaogang spoke, seemingly considering Liu Erlong.
"Erlong, we can't die yet. You're still young, you have a greater future ahead. I can't watch you die like this. What does my reputation matter for your sake?"
Yu Xiaogang spoke, his eyes filled with feigned tenderness, as if he were truly thinking of Liu Erlong and not himself.
"Xiao Gang, for you, I am willing to give my Life."
Liu Erlong had already let her lower body replace her brain, and love replace thought. She would open her mouth to praise Xiao Gang and close it to praise Xiao Gang.
She was pure and unblemished, with an extraordinary temperament. How could the wise Xiao Gang be a hypocrite?
"No, live on. Promise me, Erlong."
Yu Xiaogang tightly held Liu Erlong's hand, not daring to let go. He was truly afraid that this fool, Liu Erlong, would cause more trouble and lose his life here.
Looking at the unyielding look in Yu Xiaogang's eyes and his tightly clasped hand, Liu Erlong was incredibly moved. Was this her Xiao Gang who loved her?
She immediately choked out, "Okay, Xiao Gang, we'll both live well."
This disgusting scene immediately sickened Qian Renchuan and Xiao Wu. Qian Renchuan felt his hands were dirty.
He directly used Blue Silver Grass to give each of them a big slap, sternly scolding, "If you're going to kowtow, do it quickly. What are you doing disgusting people here?"
"Damn it!"
Liu Erlong was about to erupt but was stopped by Yu Xiaogang, who said with a humiliated tone, "Okay, we'll roll."
"Remember to kowtow."
Qian Renchuan said casually.
Hearing Qian Renchuan's words, Yu Xiaogang's body stiffened. He clenched his fists tightly, then sighed helplessly and knelt on the ground powerlessly.
Thump—
With one kowtow, Yu Xiaogang also pulled Liu Erlong to kowtow quickly. He was already like this; wasn't it just to get out alive?
Liu Erlong, who was originally unwilling, could only humiliate herself by kowtowing to Qian Renchuan and the others, but her voice was too soft, making Qian Renchuan quite displeased.
"The sound is too soft. I didn't hear it clearly. Kowtow again."
"Does a soft sound mean I didn't kowtow? Aren't you playing with us?"
Liu Erlong directly stood up, but was quickly pulled back and appeased by Yu Xiaogang.
"So what if I'm playing with you?"
Qian Renchuan also realized that Liu Erlong was simply asking for it and could no longer be dealt with by ordinary means; she had to be suppressed.
Immediately, eight Blue Silver Grass vines appeared around her and whipped furiously at Liu Erlong's body, making crackling sounds.
After an unknown amount of time, Liu Erlong lay on the ground, her skin torn and flesh lacerated. Her mouth was swollen, and she could only mumble indistinctly.
"Stop hitting! Don't hit anymore! We'll kowtow, we'll definitely kowtow loudly!"
Yu Xiaogang saw Liu Erlong completely swollen, covered in bloodstains. If she continued to be beaten, she definitely wouldn't hold up. This was his backer at Shrek, and if she was gone, he would be ruined.
Saying that, he pulled Liu Erlong, grabbing her hair, and kowtowed with every step, making loud thudding sounds.
After they had kowtowed nine times, Qian Renchuan indifferently took Xiao Wu's hand and slowly departed, leaving behind the unconscious Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang, who was secretly relieved to have saved his life.
To avoid being discovered by the Shrek Academy members in his current state, Yu Xiaogang did not return but first found a medical clinic and had the Healing Soul Master inside treat him and Erlong.
However, because Liu Erlong's body had a strong odor, and to save face, before the treatment, he disregarded Liu Erlong's injuries and directly poured cold water over her.
It was a simple cleaning. Although he coveted Liu Erlong's body, unfortunately, he no longer had any sensation, nor did he have his little Xiao Gang.
He could only watch silently. This was the pain of his entire Life.
"Hiss~"
Liu Erlong, suddenly awakened by the cold water, immediately grimaced in pain. Before she could even see who it was, she was about to curse.
Then she saw Yu Xiaogang by the bed and swallowed her words, but still let out occasional groans of pain.
"Erlong, the top priority is to treat your injuries quickly."
Yu Xiaogang said, disregarding the wailing Liu Erlong, and immediately pulled her to the medical clinic.
Her wounds, stimulated by the cold water, and the newly closed wounds, tore open again with Yu Xiaogang's pull, causing Liu Erlong to limp as she walked.
"Xiao Gang, can you slow down? My wounds are splitting open again."
She couldn't bear it anymore. No matter how much she liked Yu Xiaogang, she couldn't let this continue. If she walked any further, she would die of pain on the road.
"Oh, oh, okay."
Yu Xiaogang was first startled, somewhat confused as to why Liu Erlong would speak to him. He turned his head and saw Liu Erlong, pale from blood loss all the way, and immediately understood. It turned out she had been bleeding all the way and felt she couldn't hold on, which was why she reminded him.
