Chapter 85: Chapter 85: He’s Here

From the words that this man uttered while whipping her, Gu Lili realized that her husband, Long Yubei, had found out that she was in the hands of this neurotic man in such a short time!

He would definitely come to rescue her!

Although Gu Lili was in unbearable physical and emotional pain, it felt like she had a greater support in her heart.

Initially, she had clenched her teeth and not screamed, but eventually when wounds were whipped onto her legs and he continued to beat her, hanging blades on the whip, causing ten times more pain than before, Gu Lili could not endure any longer and cried out in pain.

The whole basement had no other sounds, only her continuous screams of agony.

Soon, her legs were soaked with fresh blood, yet she remained painfully conscious.

Gu Lili’s face turned pale, covered with cold sweat, her whole body hanged there, almost unable to hold on.

The man, tired of beating and having vented his anger, stopped temporarily.

He looked up at Gu Lili and sneered with a cold laugh, "Slut!"

Gu Lili did not retort. She did not want to suffer his whipping anymore. A gentleman takes revenge, even after ten years; enduring temporarily would lessen her suffering – she understood this principle.

If she could avoid arguing back, she would.

"Throw her back into the cage."

The bodyguards swiftly obeyed, and when Gu Lili was thrown in, the pain was excruciating.

The man left with his people.

Gu Lili closed her eyes; the pain made her want to sleep, and if she slept, it wouldn’t hurt.

As she wished, she really fell asleep.

She did not know how much time had passed when a loud sound from above woke her up.

Immediately after, there were sounds of gunfire.

She tensed up; had Long Yubei arrived?

"Bang!" The sound of the basement door being opened, and a group of neatly organized men came down, all of Masked Man’s people.

Masked Man followed them down, obviously having hid here.

Gu Lili kept her eyes tightly shut, pretending to be unconscious.

"Master, what if Long Yubei finds this place?"

"Have you forgotten our most beloved creatures?" he spoke slowly, "If he dares to come, let him see for himself. I do not wish to harm him, but since this damned woman is important to him, too bad for him. Perhaps, we should attend to this woman first..."

That most beloved thing?

Could it really be snakes?

Indeed, it was.

When Masked Man whistled, a dense pack of snakes burst out from another entrance of the basement.

Gu Lili heard the hissing sound and felt her scalp tingle, but she dared not open her eyes, only feeling those creatures slowly slithering towards her.

Just at that moment, the basement door opened again.

The number of people coming down was certainly not enough to match Masked Man’s bullets.

"Open fire."

"Those who do not fire will not be executed." Tang Qingli spoke.

His men, seeing the number of people and not daring to raise their hands to fire the remaining bullets, knowing they might not make it out alive, kneeled down in a pleading posture, motionless as statues.

Masked Man fired first, but at the moment before the shot, his gun was knocked out of his hand.

And his hand, too, instantly streamed with fresh blood as his body was quickly seized.

He stiffened his neck and suddenly turned to see who had fired; it was Long Yubei, clad in black, descending the stairs.

Just as Masked Man was about to call out to his snakes, his mouth was suddenly covered, as if someone anticipated and stopped his action.
