Chapter 1388 Shattered Bones Alice
With saliva on his face, Shao Yun slowly raised the back of his hand and casually wiped his cheek to clean it.
Then, he looked at Alice, his tone eerily calm, and retorted:
"Likewise. You're just a guy whose head is full of wild fantasies, who talks about fairy tales all the time, and can't distinguish reality from fiction."
After saying that, Shao Yun lost interest in wasting any more words with Alice.
The appetizers are ready; now it's time for the main course.
He stood up, glanced at Yuan Shang who was waiting not far away, and casually waved.
“Yuan Shang, give me another stick. This time, I will make Miss Alice enjoy the pain to come.”
Upon hearing the order, Yuan Shang's eyes lit up immediately. Without daring to delay, he quickly replied, "No problem, Your Highness! I'll be right there!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he ran away quickly, and a moment later he returned, holding a heavy pure iron spiked club in both hands (to persuade with reason), and respectfully handed it to Shao Yun.
Shao Yun took the spiked club, exerted a little force, and swung it a few times in front of him. The "whooshing" sound of the wind cut through the night sky, making people feel uneasy and short of breath.
The sharp iron spikes gleamed coldly in the moonlight, sending chills down one's spine.
He stopped what he was doing and said clearly, "Alice, experience it for yourself... experience the feeling of your bones being crushed into powder bit by bit, the feeling of being worse than dead!"
Alice stared at the chilling spiked club in Shao Yun's hand, at the undisguised ruthlessness in his eyes, her heart pounding wildly, yet she still did not bow her head.
She slowly turned her head and looked at Ying, who was standing not far away.
Ying stood there quietly, taking in all the bloodshed and cruelty before her eyes, yet remained silent, her expression eerily calm.
Alice couldn't help but laugh, a laugh that was both shrill and sorrowful. She mocked herself, "Haha...hahahaha...I was so worried that I lost my mind. How ridiculous!"
"I never imagined that the kind-hearted traveler, that gentle girl, would be so utterly corrupted by you, this devil!"
Her gaze fell on Ying's face, and she said with a sense of pity, "Ying, look at yourself! You've married a monster, a demon with blood on his hands!"
"Is this the life you wanted? What did you gain in return for giving up something wonderful?"
Faced with Alice's questioning and regret, Ying showed no sadness, no guilt, and no wavering, speaking with utter detachment:
“I came to Teyvat only to find my brother. If you won’t help me and won’t help me find him, then I will listen to my husband.”
"Now, Miss Alice, please die."
Hearing Ying's cold and resolute words, "Go to hell," Alice's eyes trembled slightly. It was all over...
She slowly lowered her head, a bitter smile playing on her lips, then suddenly looked up at the night sky, pouring out her grievances to the fireflies and protesting against this unjust fate.
"Heh, good, that's a very good reason... looking for your brother, right, you were never here to be the savior of Teyvat."
"But why? Why did fate give you the destiny of a savior, the power to change everything, yet you choose to use that power to assist a demon?"
She wanted to protect Teyvat with all her heart, but ended up like this; while Luminous, who was destined to be a savior, was willing to become a slave to the demons.
Shao Yun saw all of this, but ignored Alice's accusations and resentment.
He slowly turned his head, his gaze falling on Ying, who was watching coldly from the side, and gently advised her:
"Honey, don't linger here. This is over for you. Let's go. I don't want you to see what happens next."
Alice looked at Shao Yun's completely different appearance and revealed a provocative smile, deliberately trying to provoke him.
"Don't let her go! Shao Yun, aren't you so capable? Let her stay and see for herself, let her see with her own eyes just how ruthless and heartless the devil she married really is!"
"Let her see how you beat me so badly that my brains are splattered everywhere and I die on the spot!"
She wanted Ying to witness this bloodshed and cruelty firsthand, to make Ying regret marrying such a bloodthirsty demon. Even the slightest wavering would be a comfort to her.
But Shao Yun didn't care about Alice's provocation at all, treating it as nothing more than the buzzing of flies in his ear.
His gaze remained fixed on Ying, but he hoped she wouldn't witness the bloody and cruel scene that was about to unfold; after all, people were bound to die.
"Don't listen to her, let's go. What's about to happen is going to be bloody and disgusting, you don't need to stay here to see it."
Ying's gaze slowly moved, sweeping over Alice's haggard and unwilling face, and over the five companions not far away who had already been tortured beyond recognition.
The unconscious Zhongli, the pitifully gruesome Yae no Miko, the mentally unstable Nasita, the blind Rhinedot, and the speechless Ishtar—each one was a pitiful sight.
After witnessing all of this, she slowly turned her head and said stubbornly, "No, I want to watch."
Seeing her stubborn gaze, Shao Yun didn't insist any further.
Shao Yun didn't insist anymore. When Ying killed Alfonso in Sumeru... she knew how to kill people...
"Okay... but if you really can't take it anymore, don't force yourself. You can leave anytime. In the end, these are just some finishing touches, not worth your constant attention."
After saying this reminder, Shao Yun slowly turned around and looked back at Alice.
After so much buildup, it's time to finally settle the score with this instigator.
As always, he wouldn't let her die easily; he wanted her to be tortured to death little by little in extreme agony.
Alice felt the chilling ruthlessness emanating from Shao Yun, and her whole body trembled slightly, but she still refused to bow her head and admit defeat.
She gritted her teeth and strained with all her might, not letting herself show the slightest pain or fear, to preserve her last shred of dignity!
Even if she dies, she wants to die with dignity.
……
With one blow, Alice's left ankle broke.
But Alice only let out a soft hum, without shouting it out!
Shao Yun shook his neck, and his cervical spine made a "crackling" sound.
On that brand-new pure iron mace, the sharp iron spikes still bore traces of undried blood and bits of flesh.
He stared at Alice, who was sprawled on the ground, her body tense, and threatened her viciously, "That's what broke your left ankle... The real show is yet to come!"
Alice, drenched in cold sweat from the pain, flared up with hatred and rage upon hearing Shao Yun's sinister words. With all her might, she screamed at Shao Yun in a piercing, desperate cry:
"You devil! You'll die a horrible death! I'll haunt you even as a ghost!!!"
Shao Yun ignored her screams, but suddenly roared, his voice shaking the night sky. He poured all his strength into his arms, gripped the spiked club tightly, and slammed it down hard on Alice's right ankle.
"Snap—!"
A crisp, piercing sound of bones cracking rang out instantly, drowning out Alice's screams.
This time, Alice let out an extremely shrill scream that pierced her throat, so sharp it seemed to burst her eardrums.
"Eeeah!!!"
Alice gripped the white sand beneath her with both hands, her fingernails filled with sand and dirt, her fingertips raw and bloody from digging.
Shao Yun did not stop, nor did he show any mercy. The spiked club in his hand rained down on Alice's body, one blow after another.
Each blow was accompanied by a crisp cracking sound of bone breaking, followed by Alice's heart-wrenching scream.
With each strike, a bone would break, and more blood would gush out, staining the sand beneath them and the spiked club in Shao Yun's hand.
……
After Alice's ankles were broken, the spiked club shifted its point of impact to her calves. With a "crack," her shinbone snapped and twisted grotesquely.
Next came the thigh, another crisp crack, the thigh bone was smashed open, the flesh was torn open, and blood was everywhere.
Then, Shao Yun's gaze locked onto Alice's lower back, and he raised the spiked club high before slamming it down again.
"Bam—!"
With a dull thud, the sharp iron spikes on the spiked club embedded themselves deeply in her lower back, smashing her spine. The muffled impact, mixed with the cracking sound of bones breaking, was so jarring it sent chills down one's spine.
Alice's body stiffened abruptly, her convulsions stopped instantly, and the next second... her lower body sensation vanished completely, as if it had been severed.
Immediately afterward, much like Yae no Miko, Alice could no longer hold on, her vision went black, and she fainted completely from the pain.
However, Shao Yun would not give up so easily and would not let her faint so easily.
With a flick of his wrist, he raised the spiked club high and slammed it down on Alice once more, the force of which was no less.
"what--!!!"
The intense pain instantly pulled Alice back from unconsciousness, and a piercing scream pierced her throat, echoing repeatedly in the empty Floating Feather Bay.
