On The Path Of Cultivation To Become God

Chapter 171: Punishment (2)

The rain fell from the sky in the city, creating a symphony of rhythmic pitter-patter on the pavement below.

When the dogs that barked in the middle of the night were silent and the people in the slums had forced themselves to sleep to cope with the cold, hoping that they would wake up the next morning,

There were still hours before dawn, and the darkness embraced everything in its hold.

And in that darkness, a pitiful little girl in ragged clothes tried to crawl away from the men in black, sniffing terrified.

She did not even try to snatch back the last piece of her mother from the man who had pulled off a flute-looking pendent from her neck.

Even if she could not hear what the men in black were throwing at her, she could still sense the disaster that was about to befall her.

She may be naive, but she had grown up in a place that was full of darkness, and when two men stepped forward toward her, she just closed her eyes, wishing that when she opened them, everything would be fine.

And warm tears poured out of her closed eyes, despite all her efforts to not let them out.

Alas, for her, the men in black injected something into her arm, causing her body to go limp.

As her consciousness faded, she realized that her worst fears were coming true.

The disaster she had sensed was now becoming a horrifying reality, and she could do nothing to stop it.

Now that the girl was in an unknown place, her gaze was filled with horror as she gazed at her surroundings.

She wasn't able to speak or hear, but the girl knew that she was in trouble.

Especially after she noticed the middle-aged man looking at her, his eyes were filled with malice, and a sinister smile played on his lips.

The girl's heart raced as she desperately tried to make sense of her situation.

She felt a surge of adrenaline, and her body instinctively urged her to flee.

Unfortunately, her body refused to move; she didn't want to be drugged anymore, but the fear was paralyzing. Every muscle in her body felt frozen, as if the weight of the man's gaze had rendered her immobile.

Panic set in as she realized that escape was not an option.

She desperately wished for someone to come to her rescue, but the silence around her only heightened her sense of isolation.

The girl's mind raced with unanswered questions, wondering how she had ended up in this nightmarish situation and what the man had in store for her.

Seizing his new toy, Yi Guo ordered that they wake her up.

If Chen Tian had to be honest, the girl in front of him, who was only 15 years old, was the most adorable girl he had ever seen in his life.

She oozed such innocence and cuteness that it could melt anyone's heart, and she looked just like a doll, urging people to hold her in their arms protectively.

If he did not know better, he would have thought that she was a doll, as she possessed such a high charm.

Her dark hair, which reached down to her waist, was smooth and shiny, reflecting the light captivating.

Her almond-shaped eyes were bright and sparkling, filled with curiosity and wonder.

Her eyes were a deep shade of brown, giving her an innocent look.

She had plump, rosy cheeks that added to her overall charm.

Chen Tian couldn't help but feel a sense of responsibility towards her, like he needed to protect her from the harsh realities of the world.

"Something is odd here." Chen Tian thought as he looked at the girl.

If it was someone else, that girl would have shouted or begged for help by now. But she just stood there.

Her body trembled, but no sound came out of her mouth. Chen Tian's concern grew as he observed her.

Was she in shock?

Or was she too scared to speak up?

He knew he couldn't ignore her any longer; he had to find out what was wrong and offer his help.

It wasn't only him who thought so.

"Hey St, why isn't she saying anything?" Yi Guo asked.

"Mr. Yi, the girl is mute and unable to speak or hear," replied St., worried that Yi Guo wouldn't like the answer.

But his worries were unfounded, as Yi Guo just smiled.

His smile was an evil grin that sent shivers down St.'s spine. "Perfect," Yi Guo said, his voice dripping with malicious intent.

"That makes things even more interesting."

St. smiled at Yi Guo's answer, which meant that today he was going to make money.

Chen Tian felt a pang of sympathy for the girl, realizing the challenges she must face every day.

"I can cure her," Chen Tian thought confidently.

For cultivators like Chen Tian, disabilities that are considered incurable by modern medicine are merely child's play for any high-level cultivator.

??????"I had never tried destroying a girl that could scream or hear me before," Yi Guo said, a mischievous smile forming on his face.

For him, it was a new experience that he wanted to try.

For him, the girl that was trembling on the ground was a beauty that he couldn't resist toying with.

He had always enjoyed manipulating others, especially those who were vulnerable.

This girl's disability made her the perfect target for his sadistic games.

Little did he know, Chen Tian was not going to let him get away with it so easily.

The woman in the room could only pity this little girl, as her fate was already sealed. They knew how cruel that monster was in front of them.

By mistake the girl that was giving a massage to Yi Guo feet made a mistake as she scratched him intentionally.

"Fucking bitch!" Yi Guo yelled in pain and anger and kicked his feet into the woman's face.

The force of his kick wasn't light, as blood began to gush out from the woman's broken nose. She fell to the ground, clutching her face in agony.

Chen Tian's eyes widened with fury as he witnessed the horrific scene unfold before him.

The little girl was trembling with fear.

The woman who had been kicked in the face, immediately rushed in front of Yi Guo feet and began apologizing.

She was begging for forgiveness, her voice trembling with fear.

"Please... I beg for your mercy," she pleaded, tears streaming down her face.

But to her dismay, a slap across the woman's face was Yi Guo's response.

The force of the blow knocked her to the ground once again, leaving her even more battered and broken.

The little girl let out a terrified whimper, unable to comprehend the cruelty she had just witnessed.

Chen Tian's rage burned like a wildfire.

"Head Butler!" Yi Guo shouted, his voice filled with anger.

"Take this woman away and lock her up. She shall never see the light of day again."

The head butler, hesitant but obedient, nodded and gestured for a guard to take the woman away.

"N-No Plea...se" The woman, even in her condition, begged for mercy, her voice barely a whisper.

"Okay, that's enough," Chen Tian thought as he took a deep breath, trying to calm himself.

He immediately made his move on the bodyguard, who was just about to take the woman away, and stopped him in his tracks.

"Stop," Chen Tian commanded firmly, his voice now filled with determination.

A shock rang out in the room when Chen Tian suddenly appeared.

The bodyguard, taken aback by Chen Tian's sudden intervention, froze in his tracks, but it didn't last long as he became caution of the sudden intruder.

Not only him, but the man next to Yi Guo also looked at Chen Tian with wide eyes and disbelief.

The tension in the room was palpable as everyone awaited Chen Tian's next move.

"Who are you, kid?"

"How did you enter this place?" Yi Guo coldly commended him; his gaze was full of hostility and suspicion.

How did this kid appear here in this place that no one had access to? The bodyguard and the man next to Yi Guo exchanged confused glances, wondering if they had missed something.

Chen Tian stood tall and composed, unfazed by the hostility in Yi Guo's voice.

With a slight smile, he replied, "I am someone who wants to settle a score with you, Bug." The room fell silent at Chen Tian's words.

"What did he just say?" The head butler and everyone else in the room were shocked at Chen Tian's bold speech.

"Kid, not only have you entered a restricted place without permission, but now you dare to call me a "bug"?" Yi Guo's voice dripped with anger.

Chen Tian maintained his calm demeanor as he continued, "I know about your despicable deeds, Bug. The illegal activities, the corruption, today, I will be destroying everything related to you."

Yi Guo's face turned red from anger.

"Head Butler, are you becoming old enough to not notice someone following you?" Yi Guo shouted, his voice filled with frustration.

"S-Sorry, master, I should have been more vigilant. Please forgive me." The head Butler shuddered.

Everyone in the room thought that Chen Tian entered here by following behind the Head Butler.
