62 Pitiful Canary

This attracted everyone attentions in room towards the woman standing in the corner.

She had a delicate face, with a pair of bright eyes accompanied by a high-chiseled nose, and sexy red-tinged little lips.

Even her clothes couldn't hide her charming figure, one could, make out the outline of her twin perks, and contours of her perky butt. With raven-black hair cut to her shoulder length.

Before anyone could say anything, the old lady rushed and give her a tight slap on her face. Causing the woman to fall on ground as slight blood flowed from her lips.

"A lowly concubine, like you should keep her mouth shut. If it weren't for my Ruogang'er, I would have you thrown in river. Instead of being grateful. You dare to bite the hand that feed you." Old lady loudly yelled, as she viciously kicked the woman in her belly.

"He forced himself on a servant." She coldly glared at old lady and spoke through her gritted teeth.

"So, What? You should be thankful, my son laid his eyes on such a worthless piece of trash." Old lady fiercely yelled back. Defending her son without hesitation. To her, even thousand lifes of servants couldn't compare to a single hair on her son.

"She was only eleven not even a proper adult. So, what else do you consider an animal. Who won't spare children." Her voice was as cold as ice, but it didn't have any effect on old lady, the old lady continued beating her body as bruise of black and blue formed on her body.

Noticing the situation might get out of hand. Duan Rong gestured the servant to separate them and said "Give concubine Shi hundred lashes. Afterwards, throw her in dungeon for three days and night, without any food and water."

Servants dragged Concubine Shi to give her a Hundred lashes. But old lady wasn't satisfied as she snorted and said: "Why didn't you kill that bitch."

Through this punishment sounded cruel. It wouldn't kill concubine Shi. Old lady originally wanted to make her a play toy for her servants  but now punishment has been decided. She couldn't say anything.

Duan Rong knew his wife thoughts but he couldn't allow concubine Shi to die.Yet, till he didn't find out the secret of Eastern River Kingdom.

Duan Rong turned towards Physician Bai and clasped his hands "My apologise, for this disgraceful behaviours by my family. We Duan clan shall owe Physician Bai a favour."

"Then I shall take my leave." Physician Bai was a smart person who could read the mood and decided to leave quickly. He reached the main street, and disappeared in the crowd. While people were not watching a small object crawled out, in between of eyebrows  of Duan Ruogang, and went in the direction of dungeon.

*** 

Physician Bai sneakily went into an alley, and disappeared. Appearing in a room that was lite up by several pearl.

With a huge mirror that had different patterns engraved, with a burly image of a person could be seen on the surface of mirror, the burly image became clearer. Revealing a youth with bronze skin, and masculine feather surrounded by several beauties.

Arrogantly sitting on a throne, like he was a god looking down on everything from high above. He spoke in awe-inspiring tone "Did you let the Duan clan know."

If anyone saw Physician Bai current expression,  they would faint from shock. He was kneeling on one knee with a servile altitude like a servant.

Although, Physician Bai wasn't the greatest  physician of demon realm. But he was still considered as a peak expert in medicine. Countless experts will use every mean to falter these physician because you never know when you will get ill or severely injured. 

But he was acting in such a way towards someone. Physician Bai nodded his head in approval and spoke in a submissive tone

"Your highness, I have informed Duan clan about Heaven-Mending Restore Pill and Duan clan will probably make a move." Listening to Physician Bai reply, the man in mirror seemed be extremely satisfied.

"With this both Duan clan and Xie empire will have direct confrontation and even Spirit Blade Sect will also be involved. If somehow Blood Empress disappeared in this confrontation, the blame will be put on Spirit Blade Sect and Duan clan. While we easily reap benefits." He wouldn't dare scheme against Blood Empress, even if he had thousand guts. But know Blood Empress strength had deteriorated by at least two realm.

If he didn't take advantage of this situation, wouldn't he be considered an idiot. 

*** 

A body was thrown in a cell, if not for her body barely  breathing. People will think of her dead.

Her back pure white-skin was covered in multiple marks of lashes as blood continued to drip on ground. She tried to move her body but she felt like thousand insect was crawling on her body.

As a few tears fall on ground. She had been strong but she finally broke down. She originally was the princess of Eastern River Kingdom, but she had been reduced to this state.

Her family was slaughtered and she was captured "What a pitiful canary? For everything in this world a price must be paid, I can fulfil your wish but what price will you pay."

Concubine Shi looked around cell and found a  pure-black crow with violet eye. She didn't understand why she felt like that black crow will be able to fulfil her.

With a burning determination like taking an oath " I will offer my everything, heart, soul, and even my destiny."
