Ye Anping did not beat around the bush and directly expressed his intention.
Although Li Longling hesitated for a long time, in the end, she just said "hmm" and agreed. At Ye Anping's request, she led him to a side room behind the main hall and sent Ling'er to fetch the rare and precious materials he asked for, as well as a tamed spiritual bird.
After the servants moved everything inside, Ye Anping told his sister and Xiao Yunluo to wait outside, leaning against the door as he said to them, "You two, your task is to guard the door. After a while, Miss Li may start screaming in pain, and the servants will definitely rush over when they hear it. No matter how loud the screams are, no one is allowed to enter. Understood?"
"Yes." Pei Lengxue nodded vigorously and answered loudly. "Understood!!"
Xiao Yunluo looked at Ye Anping. She was still blushing uncontrollably, but she nodded and agreed in a soft voice.
Seeing her like this, Ye Anping's mind had a flash with her navel, and with a light sigh, he retreated into the room, closing the door and pulling the latch.
Only then did the shyness on Xiao Yunluo's face gradually dissipate. As she looked at Pei Lianxue standing beside her, somehow, she felt like a concubine meeting the wife and was inexplicably a little afraid.
After hesitating for a while, she tried to open a conversation. "Lianxue, by the way, how did you get in touch with the ***Dragon Slayers Society***?"
"Huh? I don't know..."
"You don't know?"
Pei Lianxue pouted and said, "Anyway, that's what my brother wanted. I just have to do as he says."
"I see..."
Xiao Yunluo pursed her lips, and seeing that Pei Lianxue did not show any hostility toward her, she calmed down. It seemed that Ye Anping did not tell her what happened that night, so she suddenly got her confidence back.
"Hmm -- you tell! Can Ye Anping really cure Sister Li's eyes? After all, Master Li has not found a way in more than ten years."
"If brother says he can, he can!"
"You really trust him."
"Right! By the way... Yunluo." Pei Lianxue turned around, fished out the *"Erotic Pictures of Immortal Palace"* from the storage bag, and asked, "Brother said to bring you this book and ask you to explain its contents to me."
"What book?"
Xiao Yunluo was stunned, thinking it was an admission letter about what happened and that Ye Anping didn't tell the story himself but actually asked her to read it. But, when she saw the book cover...
*Boom---*
It was like a bolt of lightning hitting her out of nowhere.
Xiao Yunluo stiffened. "This...this, this book, you, you, you...where did you get it?"
"It's a gift from my brother for my coming-of-age. Pei Lianxue casually flipped open a page. "I took a look at it, but it's just a comic book with two people twisting around... I don't understand it."
"..."
*Gift?! You gave this as a coming-of-age gift?!*
*Ye Anping!! What were you thinking?!*
Xiao Yunluo reached out with a trembling hand and took the book, flipping through a few pages.
This book was an older edition that she had long discarded. The artwork in the book was not particularly good, with most of the drawings requiring imagination to make sense or being indistinguishable between humans and animals.
"...Ye Anping told you to ask me to explain this book to you?"
"Yes."
"..."
*Ye Anping! What do you think I am?!*
*Why don't you explain it to Lianxue yourself? You even want me to explain... I... I...*
Xiao Yunluo felt like crying without tears, but when she looked at Pei Lianxue's innocent eyes, she suddenly thought of something, and her eyes lit up. She pulled Pei Lianxue to sit on the steps.
"Lianxue, the first thing you should know is that the things shown in this book are very dangerous!!"
Pei Lianxue tilted her head in surprise. "Dangerous?"
"Exactly!" Xiao Yunluo frowned righteously and nodded. "It's true! These things can get you killed!!"
...
Meanwhile, inside the house.
The sound insulation in this side room was very good. After closing the door and windows, it became quiet.
Li Longling didn't like places that were too quiet, especially after her father passed away. She had hung a lot of wind chimes in her bedroom lately.
Silence frightened her and gave her nightmares.
She was now sitting on the couch in the room, listening carefully to Ye Anping's footsteps. She could only hear him silently arranging something in each corner of the room.
Just now, Ye Anping said he could cure her eyesight, but she didn't really believe it. After all, even her father couldn't find a solution after decades of trying.
But she believed that at least Ye Anping wouldn't harm her.
However, even though she believed that Ye Anping wouldn't harm her, she still felt uneasy.
After a while, Li Linglong couldn't hold back and asked, "Brother Ye, could you talk to me?"
Ye Anping's voice came from her left. "Are you scared?"
"Um... a little."
"Alright, I'm almost done. Just lay back and relax."
"Okay."
Biting her lip lightly, Li Longling raised her feet and lay flat on the couch with her hands on her abdomen and her ears perked up. Some strange thoughts were flashing through her mind.
She was just a defenseless girl. No matter what Ye Anping would do to her, she couldn't resist...
*Swoosh--*
There was a rustle of clothes, and she suddenly felt two hands grabbing her ankles.
"Ah?!"
"Relax." Ye Anping's hesitant voice was heard, and he continued."Miss Li, don't worry, I'm not the kind of false gentleman who takes advantage of the weak. I won't do anything to you."
Li Longling forced a smile and whispered, "... Master Ye, it would have been better if you didn't say that. Now that you've said it, I can't help but think that you... have ulterior motives."
"Is that so? Then, I won't speak anymore. It may hurt for a while, but I can guarantee that you will definitely be able to catch the silver moon after that."
Catch the moon... Li Longling felt slightly puzzled. Why did he say this?
That time when she was bathing with Sister Xiao, she...
Just as she was wondering about this matter, she suddenly felt the big hand holding her ankle slowly sliding up her leg.
As those fingers traced her thighs, she couldn't hold back and hurriedly said, "Brother Ye!! Please say something, I'm afraid..."
"It's normal to be afraid." Ye Anping's tone was still calm. "It's about to start, brace yourself."
"Oh..."
Instantly, a sharp pain spread from her soles upward, and Li Longling really wanted to scream.
This feeling was as if a knife was cutting open her skin. She even felt as if the skin on her feet was being peeled off, and a warm liquid flowed out along her ankles.
"Does it hurt?"
"Mmm..." Li Longling bit her lip hard, and her two small incisors directly embedded into her lower lip. "It hurts a lot!"
"Scream out if it hurts, there's no need to act tough in front of me. Don't worry, I won't leave any wounds on you."
"Ugh... It's okay, I can stand it. If I can't even bear this little pain..."
Ye Anping said with a hint of helplessness in his tone. "Enduring the pain has nothing to do with whether you are strong or not. If it hurts, scream! And this is just the beginning, don't hold back, scream!!! You might end up grinding your teeth into pieces later, and I'll have to fill them in for you..."
Tooth filling... Li Longling thought it was funny, but the next moment, she felt something being stuffed into her mouth.
"Hot towel for you to bite while I continue."
The next moment...
The pain was several times more severe than before.
"Woo-oh~!!!"
"Okay! We've reached the innermost part. The next step is the most painful and may last for about half an hour. Just stay awake, and don't try to be brave."
"It's going to hurt more?"
"When I tried it with someone before, I accidentally blew out their eyeball, but don't worry, it won't happen this time."
"Ah? Ye... Master Ye?!"
"Heh... just kidding."
"...Oh my--!!!"
