C24 (1/2)
”Humph, leave this brat here, you can leave now.” He hadn't slept well for the past few days, not because he was afraid of punishment, but because he was very regretful and afraid that someone would die just like that.
”Hehe! Old Master Bu, it is precisely because of this that I came here. It was indeed a mistake on the part of the second prince this time. The emperor also said that he would give old master Bu a satisfactory answer.” Bai Ling's face sank. It was clear that she was serious.
”Hmph, an explanation? Let's see how you will explain this! Other than this brat's life, there's no need to talk about anything else! ” Bu Batian also knew that since Bai Ling brought him here, this brat's life would definitely not be handed over.
”Grandpa Bu, it's all my fault. I failed for a moment …” Long Yi stood there and spoke. His body was weak because he hadn't eaten for a few days. Pain had been plastered all over his face.
”Is Bu Jinghua awake?” Long Yi asked in a hoarse voice. His scarlet eyes were filled with prayers. He really hoped that Bu Jinghua would wake up, but he chose to refuse to answer.
”That's none of your business! Hmph!” ”Don't pretend to think that I will let you off!” Bu Batian looked at the scratched face and heard that it was caused by Bu Jinghua. From the looks of it, it was indeed a sight to behold. How could Jinghua leave such an ugly mark on that face? It seems like this kid, Jinghua, is still sensible.
It was definitely a good thing to think that her granddaughter was no longer blindly infatuated with Long Yi. Even though he was a bit happy, Bu Batian did not let him show even the slightest bit of his joy.
”Grandpa Bu, it is only right that you anger me. I came here today to beg for forgiveness. I hope you can forgive me!” Finished speaking, he took out a long vine from his back, and handed it over to Bu Batian, ”You can fight me then, and use your strength until you forgive me!” Long Yi knelt down on one knee and handed the vine to Bu Batian.
The fact that a prince could actually do something so disgraceful was a huge shock to Bu Batian.
As Bu Batian looked at the dragon chow, which was filled with sincerity and didn't seem to be putting on a show at all, he didn't know what to say. For a prince to do such a thing, if he were to reject it, it would be unjustifiable. However, if he were to reject it, wasn't it a bit too petty?
Just that, how many times did he have to hit it? It was true that he couldn't get rid of the hatred in his heart.
”Grandpa Bu, come on!” Seeing that Bu Batian was hesitating, Long Yi lifted up the rattan again.
Bu Batian did not accept the idea of standing with his hands behind his back. If this was only a plot by the dragon shield, then the reasoning on his side might have changed.
Seeing that Bu Batian was still angrily standing there, Long Yi didn't hesitate anymore and handed the rattan vine to Bai Ling.
”State Grandmaster Bai, you come!” Long Yi looked firmly at Bai Ling and nodded affirmatively at him.
”Second Prince …” Bai Ling also did not expect this. She originally thought that the Second Prince was only here to show off. She did not expect him to be so serious.
”Don't hesitate, come! As long as Grandpa Bu did not forgive me, you cannot stop. This is an order! ” After saying that, he shoved the vine into Bai Ling's hands and took off his jacket, revealing his clean and white back. He then bent down on one knee and said, ”Come!” He had the determination to lose an arm.
Command? Even the dragon shield couldn't command him. Bai Ling and the dragon shield were monarchs in front of outsiders, but in reality, they were just working together. This brat actually dared to say 'command'. Hmph! Bai Ling faintly smiled.
However, he still gripped the long whip and fiercely swung it at Long Yi's back. Immediately, Long Yi staggered and almost fell to the ground. A red whip mark immediately appeared on his smooth back, slightly seeping blood and ferociously splitting open, how could it be described with the word 'terrifying'?
Long Yi was in so much pain that his whole body was trembling, but he just clenched his teeth and steadied himself, before saying: ”Continue!” That stubbornness did not shrink back at all.
”Pah!” With another sound, another ferocious blood-red whip mark appeared on Long Yi's back. Long Yi clenched his teeth again and pushed through. ”Come on!” he shouted.
”Pah!” Three, smack! Four, smack! Five, ”Pa!” Six …
The bright red whip marks seemed to be addicted as they climbed up onto the dragon's back one by one. In an instant, the smooth white back was covered in a ferocious blood-red color.
Long Yi clenched his teeth tightly, and occasionally the sounds of grinding could be heard. His haggard face was already covered with beads of sweat the size of mung beans. They dropped drop by drop onto the ground while condensing on his face.
Even Bu Jingwan felt his heart go soft when he saw this scene. He stared at the mangled back with a face filled with shock.
He did not understand why Long Yi had come to beg forgiveness, and even acted out the true story of the whipping person, especially Bai Ling. She clearly knew that the one who was whipping was the Second Prince, but she did not use any force.
”Again, if Grandpa Bu doesn't say 'stop', you can't stop!” Long Yi gritted his teeth and hugged Bai Ling. However, he still forced himself to order Bai Ling.
Bu Batian stood there, watching the scene unfold before him. He had a soft thought in his heart, but when he thought about how his darling granddaughter was about to be killed, he felt a surge of anger.
Bai Ling let out a cold laugh and the whip fell down once again. The strength of the whip did not decrease but increased. It hit the back of the vicious dragon feed and made a loud sound. It made Bai Ling's heart tremble.
Staring at that scarlet back, Bu Jingwan did not dare to continue looking. He turned his head to the side, feeling pity for Long Yaowu, and his colleagues especially admired his endurance and courage.
