Chapter 158: Frightened

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Yu Ni had made up her mind to settle on the capital planet with her niece, Yu Guo. The quality of education there was unparalleled in the entire alliance. While the cost of establishing themselves on the capital planet was high, the generous job opportunity provided by Liao Ning alleviated much of the financial burden. Yu Ni felt immense gratitude towards Liao Ning for this.

Expressing her gratitude sincerely, Yu Ni thanked Liao Ning. “Thank you, Liao

Ning.”

Liao Ning waved her hand dismissively. She hadn’t hired Yu Ni as a teacher to seek gratitude; in fact, she believed that Yu Ni was an exceptional ancient food researcher and chef. Liao Ning considered herself fortunate to have invested a significant sum to enlist Yu Nits expertise in training future chefs for her hotel.

Meanwhile, Henry was enduring a brutal ordeal at the hands of the mysterious man in black. He was forced to endure ten ice baths, each ending only when half of the ice had melted. Before each session, the man in black replenished the bathtub with fresh ice cubes and icy water.

By the time the ten ice baths were over, Henry could no longer feel his limbs. He believed his life was on the brink of extinction and secretly wished for death, hoping his father would demand justice from the Duke and punish Xiao Chen, the perpetrator.

However, the despicable Xiao Chen had arranged for someone to administer a healing potion to Henry. These potions were rare and valuable, crafted by the empire’s special elven race and reserved exclusively for the royal family. As the son of a marquis, Henry had never been privileged enough to use one, regardless of the severity of his injuries. Yet, luck had granted him this opportunity today.

Sitting coldly in a chair, Xiao Chen observed as the healing potion gradually mended Henry’s tortured body, bringing him back from the brink of death.

With his strength gradually returning, Henry mustered the energy to confront Xiao Chen, the one who had subjected him to such torment. He demanded,

“What do you really want?”

“Nothing much. I simply wish to have a chat with my sister’s beloved,” Xiao Chen replied calmly.

Henry sneered with disdain, reminded of the days when Xiao Chen’s sister had fiercely protected him from bullies. “You truly live up to the rumors of hating your sister. Despite your hatred, why did you accept her kindness back then?” Henry’s words dripped with contempt, defending the childhood companion who had once been dear to him.

“It is precisely because I hate her that I want to torment you. I long to obliterate everything she holds dear!” Xiao Chen’s smile resembled that of a bloodthirsty wolf, his eyes glinting with coldness.

“How can you be so heartless? She’s your half-sister. Half of your blood runs through both of you!”

While Henry harbored no fondness for his childhood companion, he was taken aback by the chilling thoughts of Xiao Chen, his playmate’s brother. It made him question whether Xiao Han’s unwavering protectiveness over her brother had been in vain. Over the years, Henry and the other noble children had witnessed the extent to which Xiao Han went to safeguard her brother. Initially, they had assumed that Xiao Chen’s demeanor was simply aloof, and that Xiao Han’s love would eventually melt his heart. However, it seemed that Xiao Chen remained untouched and instead desired to dismantle everything Xiao Han cherished.

“It is precisely because half of her blood flows through me that I didn’t attack her directly. I only targeted what she holds dear,” Xiao Chen stared at Henry with cold intensity. “If you don’t wish to relive today’s events in the future, transform yourself into someone she despises. That way, I won’t spare a thought for you or invite you as a guest when my dear sister displeases me.”

“Are you threatening me?” Henry refused to give up on Xiao Han. There were few people who could deceive a duke like he did.

Xiao Chen effortlessly discerned Henry’s thoughts and spoke in a frigid tone, “Whether it’s a threat or not, you will find out the next time you visit. Perhaps it won’t be as simple as an ice bath next time.”

The mention of the ice bath elicited a flicker of fear in Henry, but it wasn’t enough to make him relinquish Xiao Han entirely.

Seeing through his lingering hesitation, Xiao Chen casually remarked, “I heard that before humans began their expansion into the universe, there existed an ancient book that chronicled a brutal punishment. Would you like to hear about

“Thank you, but I have no interest in hearing it,” Henry promptly declined, well aware that the tale would be far from pleasant..
