Slave forever

so cold... so cold...

The clothes on his body seemed to be soaked through, sticking to his skin stickyly, and there were bursts of unbearable chill.

There was something heavy wrapped around his wrist, and he heard the slight sound of metal clashing in his ears, with a slightly rusted hoarseness.

This is... Hades?

Chu Yue slowly opened his eyes, probably because he had closed them for too long, his eyes were hazy and he couldn't see anything clearly.I can only roughly know that it is very dark here, and there is no light at all.

My whole body was sore, and there was a burning sensation in my back, as if I had been traumatized, and it hurt when I moved.

After breathing quietly for a moment, the eyes finally became clear.

Only then did he realize that he was kneeling on the ground in a half-kneeling position. The surroundings were extremely dark, and he could only vaguely judge that it was a small prison cell.

Subconsciously wanted to reach out, but heard the tinkling sound of jingling bells coming from his wrist.

He raised his head with difficulty, only to realize that his hands were all bound by heavy iron chains, and the iron chains were hoisted high, making him form a posture where he wanted to fly but could only break his wings.

Her lips were already dry and peeled, and she instinctively stretched out her tongue to lick her lips, causing a burning pain.

Chu Yue's mind finally became a little clearer.

Where exactly is this place?What's wrong with me?He remembered that he followed Yan Huaifeng and jumped into the Lancang River, and then...

Then he should be dead, he doesn't understand water at all.

So this is the Palace of the King of Hades?Are you going to hell to be punished because you did something wrong?But what about Yan Huaifeng, where is he?

Thinking of Yan Huaifeng, Chu Yue suddenly became excited and tried to stand up, even the rusty iron chain swayed with his movements, making low and dark voices one after another.

It was only then that he realized that there was no good flesh on his whole body, and there were welts almost everywhere. The more serious problem was - he discovered that this was not his own body at all!

Although he could move whenever he wanted, and he could feel the pain from the wound, he looked at it a little, and he could clearly see that this was the body of a fourteen or fifteen year old boy with slender wrists and ankles. The internal strength is also very different from the way he practiced before.

Thinking of him, Chu Yue, who followed Yan Huaifeng, the head of the Holy Sect for nearly ten years, and was obviously a 25-year-old man when he died, how could he turn into a [-]-year-old boy when he woke up...

He remembered that he threw himself into the Lancang River clearly because he wanted to die, but he didn't know what happened in the middle.

Chu Yue moved his leg suspiciously. Although it was sore and weak, it was indeed controllable, and it was undoubtedly a boy's leg.

This made him feel extremely confused. Could it be that all this was just a dream?

From the time when the entire family was wiped out, to colluding with outsiders to chase and kill Yan Huaifeng, and finally both of them died, was this just his dream?

But Yan Huaifeng's helpless smile at the end was so clear that it didn't seem like a dream at all. He could even remember the tone of his last words. He said: "Since you insist on avenging your family and have come to this point today, I will pay for them. It is. I only hope that you... will never regret today's time."

Oh, never regret today's time?

Never regret today's time... You knew I would regret it, Yan Huaifeng.

Thinking about it this way, you don't know if you made things difficult for yourself or me by jumping.Master, do you know that after you left, I regretted it immediately, regretted that I had done such a beastly behavior, and let you bear the reputation of a villain in vain.

Chu Yue sighed for a long time, suddenly he didn't want to care about what happened now, why he was in a little boy's body, and why he was imprisoned.

There is only one name left in my heart, Yan Huaifeng.

etc!He suddenly trembled and raised his head suddenly, his eyes were full of anticipation.He suddenly thought, if he did not die after jumping into the Lancang River, what about Yan Huaifeng?Could he, too, be alive?

Thinking of this possibility, Chu Yue's desperate mood immediately revived again, eager to get rid of the current situation and go outside to find traces of Yan Huaifeng.

The harder he struggled, the louder the sound of the chains on his wrists became.

Suddenly the door of the cell was pushed open, and brilliant light streamed in, dazzled Chu Yue's eyes for a moment, made him squint his eyes involuntarily, and looked up in the direction of the door.

There, there was an indistinct figure who paused at the door, seeming to be sizing him up.Then strode in, grabbed his wrist, and said viciously: "Why are you arguing? I made such a big mistake. I didn't kill you. It's already a favor from the superiors. If you want to mess with me again, be careful to be beaten to death!"

The man's tone was obviously vicious, but Chu Yue could hear a little kindness. He was a hard-spoken and soft-hearted person, and he was afraid that he would alarm others and end badly, so he came to have a look.

His eyes have been in the dark for a long time, and when he sees too bright light, he can't adapt to it.It took a while to see the person in front of him clearly, but this glance made him exclaim.

"Uncle Xuan!"

The man snorted coldly, and let go of his wrist, "Hmph, it's useless to call Grandpa Xuan, Fourteen, you're doing this on your own, don't you know? What's wrong, you dare to hurt even the young master? Can you It’s a fluke to be alive so far, so be alert and stop making noise, huh?”

Chu Yue couldn't understand what the middle-aged man was babbling about, about fourteen or about young master, his mind was in chaos.However, what shocked him the most was that this middle-aged man turned out to be an acquaintance.

Xuan Wei, one of the elders of the Holy Gate, specially trains the shadow guards who protect the important figures in the gate.

Chu Yue used to follow Yan Huaifeng. Although he was not a shadow guard, but one of the hall masters of the Holy Gate, he had also dealt with Xuanwei before, and the friendship between the two was pretty good.

Who knew goodbye was in such a situation?

He called this body Fourteen...Could it be that this boy was one of the shadow guards he trained and was imprisoned here because of some mistakes.

Just now Xuanwei said that he hurt the young master, but he clearly remembered that Yan Huaifeng hadn't married yet, let alone had children, but where did the young master come from?

Seeing him stunned and confused, Xuanwei couldn't bear it.

Fourteen is the best-trained shadow guard under him, after the selection, he will basically follow the young master.

Who would have thought that the child would hurt the young master in a moment of impulsiveness, and ended up in this situation.The whip was on Fourteen's body, and he felt sad in his heart.

But the sect master loves the young master very much. When he saw that he was injured, he was furious. It was a fluke that Shisi survived. If he wanted him to continue to be a shadow guard, it might be very difficult.

All these years of hard work are probably in vain.

Xuan Wei sighed and reached out to touch his head. "Fourteen, remember to be cautious in your words and deeds in the future, do you hear me? Otherwise, Uncle Xuan will not be able to protect you."

Chu Yue nodded indiscriminately, still shocked by his current situation, but heard a commotion outside.Someone is coming here.

I only heard a voice panting and persuading: "Young master, you can't do it, you can't do it. How can you enter such a dirty place with your golden and precious body. Besides, the thug has already hurt you. If there is anything else, What can I do?"

"Shut up." Immediately, a clear voice sounded like jade, and the man arrived at the door in the blink of an eye.

Chu Yue was curious about who this young master was, so he raised his head to look over there, but this look made him lose two and a half souls, and was even more shocked than when he saw Xuan Wei just now.

The person standing in the light and shadow in front of the door, although he didn't look very old, with his eyebrows, his expression, his movements, he was undoubtedly Yan Huaifeng!

Chu Yue was stunned for a moment, thousands of feelings flooded into his heart, he didn't know what mood and expression to face with him, he couldn't sort out all his thoughts.

Yan Huaifeng saw that the kid was just staring at him blankly. He hadn't touched his teeth for three days and was tortured every day, yet he had never begged for mercy. The look in his eyes was clearly not anger or fear, but...surprise?

He touched his face subconsciously, thinking that he didn't grow up to scare people, so why should this kid be surprised.

Xuanwei quietly covered Fourteen behind his back, saluted Yan Huaifeng and said, "Young Master, how can you step on the lowly ground, please rest assured, this subordinate knows that Fourteen has hurt the Young Master this time, and the crime is unforgivable. , there is absolutely no partiality."

After finishing speaking, he took down a three-foot long whip from the wall, grasped the handle of the whip and swung it, the sound of the whip broke through the air, and hit Chu Yue directly on the back.

Chu Yue was still looking at Yan Huaifeng in a daze, he was unprepared for a while, and called out in a low voice.Xuanwei's whip didn't stop, it fell on him one after another, as if he was planning to punish him on the spot, and there was no trace of pity in his eyes.

There were already criss-crossed scars on the back of this body, and the old wounds were not healed and new wounds were added, the feeling of which is hard to express.But Chu Yue only let out an ah at the first whip, and then bit his lips tightly, silently, but still stubbornly looked at Yan Huaifeng and refused to move his eyes.

His back was dripping with blood soon, and his lips turned white from being bitten. Xuan Wei took a breather, and before he could twitch again, Yan Huaifeng finally said: "It's done."

Xuan Wei immediately nodded and retracted his whip, on the surface calm, but in his heart he was secretly relieved.

He has always liked Shisi, and he seems to be merciless in his hands, but he is really afraid that Yan Huaifeng will kill him, so he deliberately strikes hard and takes a gamble.

Chu Yue's eyes were darkened by the pain, but he still tried to open his eyes wide, wanting to look at Yan Huaifeng.

Yan Huaifeng looked at the young man with great interest, waved Xuan Wei to go aside, approached Chu Yue, and looked down at Chu Yue.

Probably thinking that the light in the cell was too weak, Yan Huaifeng stretched out the fan in his hand and lifted Chu Yue's chin—although the young man in front of him was tired and scarred, he could tell that he was in good health.

As soon as Yan Huaifeng stretched out his hand, Xuan Wei respectfully handed over the silk handkerchief. He covered his hand with the silk handkerchief, touched Chu Yue's veins, concentrated for a moment, and suddenly said, "You will follow me from now on."

Chu Yue was taken aback for a moment, but before he could react, Xuan Wei was overjoyed.

With Yan Huaifeng's words, Fourteen not only doesn't have to die, but can also be his personal bodyguard!In the future when the young master succeeds to the throne, Chu Yue must be the leader of the shadow guards, but this is the rule of the holy gate, the sect master and the young master's close shadow guards, their status is absolutely incomparable to that of ordinary people.

Seeing that Chu Yue didn't say a word, Xuanwei thought Chu Yue was stupid, so he pressed his head and told him to show his loyalty.But Chu Yue was inexplicably bold and said: "Do you still dare to trust me?"

Xuanwei was taken aback, "What the hell, you forgot all the rules with a whip? Call young master!"

Yan Huaifeng didn't care, and smiled slightly, "That depends on whether you can deserve my trust, Xuan Wei, take him back to heal his injuries, and then send him to Ghost Valley."

Just as Xuan Wei was about to respond, he paused when he heard the words, and asked with some hesitation: "The young master asked Fourteen to go to Ghost Valley? That place is..."

Although Ghost Valley is also a disciple of the Holy Gate, it is a place that specializes in cultivating dead warriors and killers, unlike Shadow Guards.

The training of shadow guards is mainly about defense. Although martial arts are superb, they are used to protect important people at critical moments.

But in places like Ghost Valley, those who can come out are masters who have narrow escapes, who specialize in the work of dead men or killers, and the training is extremely cruel. It is a fluke that one out of ten people who go in can come back.

Now that Yan Huaifeng asked Fourteen to go to Ghost Valley, wouldn't he be telling him to die in disguise?

Chu Yue was also surprised. He was a member of the Holy Gate in his previous life, so he naturally knew where the Ghost Valley was. Although he had never entered it, he also knew who could come out of the Ghost Valley.Yan Huaifeng he...

Yan Huaifeng raised his hand to stop Xuanwei who was still about to speak, and looked down at Chu Yue, "Since I want to entrust my life to you, you must also have the ability to entrust me. You have the courage to stand in front of so many people You hurt me, don't you believe that you can get out of Ghost Valley?"

Yan Huaifeng's words "Have the courage to hurt me in front of so many people" originally referred to Fourteen wounding him in the martial arts field, and it fell into Chu Yue's ears, but he thought of himself.

Thinking that he was indiscriminate, and those people who knew that they had no good intentions forced Yan Huaifeng to throw himself into the river to die.

And the last words of that person's helplessness and defense are still in my ears, and my heart began to ache for no reason. If... If Yan Huaifeng in front of me is just a dream, if there is no chance to start again, this is just his conjecture when he was dying, what should he do? what to do?

No, my lord, in this life, I will never betray, no matter what you ask me to do.

Chu Yue raised his head, looked directly into Yan Huaifeng's eyes, and said sincerely and decisively: "Please rest assured, Young Master, Chu... Fourteen will never disgrace his life."
