Chapter 495: Chapter 491: Yao Wanning Got Hit 11 Times Along the Way
Shen Han did not indulge her and directly used the strap in his hand to strike.
“Brother Shen, if we act like this, even if we find the legacy,
won’t the Snow Mountain House still forbid us from going to that Forbidden Land to practice…”
Fu Tianqi asked worriedly from the side.
Upon hearing this, Shen Han waved his hand dismissively.
“Brother Fu, you’re overthinking it. Actually, during this time, I’ve more or less figured out Snow Mountain House’s real status.
In the Divine Land, Snow Mountain House isn’t the only sect that’s displeased with other sect powers.
The strength of Snow Mountain House’s sect is still far behind top sects like the Celestial Sword Sect.
Their requirement this time is just to bring this Fairy Wanning to the place of inheritance.
There’s no demand for us to serve her like servants.
If we fulfill what they asked, and Snow Mountain House dares to break their promise, would the Celestial Sword Sect tolerate them?
In such a trust crisis, perhaps the sects that previously stumbled at Snow Mountain House would jointly act against them.”
After Shen Han’s explanation, both Fu Tianqi and Su Jinyu pondered for a moment.
It seemed to make sense.
Once the requirement was fulfilled, if Snow Mountain House still chose to cheat, they were really overestimating themselves.
If they truly had the strength to cheat, there would have been no need to open their Forbidden Land.
“Fairy Wanning, are you still sure you don’t want to leave?”
Standing before Yao Wanning, Shen Han asked once more.
Just a moment ago, Fairy Wanning had already been hit twice.
Her thigh was stinging, but amidst the pain, there was a slight sense of enjoyment…
Unconsciously, she was even slightly infatuated with this feeling.
She hadn’t even heard what Shen Han just said.
All she thought about was whether she could be hit once more…
“Fairy Wanning, are you still sure you don’t want to leave?”
Shen Han asked again with a sterner tone.
Upon hearing this, Yao Wanning wiped the blush from her face, seeming to want to hide something.
After a moment, she spoke again: “I’ve told you before, I’d rather die than listen to you…”
As she said this, she probably thought Shen Han would hit her again.
But this time, she miscalculated…
Shen Han actually used quite a bit of force when striking her.
All realms of strength were restricted here, so it should have been quite painful to be hit.
Shen Han hadn’t anticipated that this young lady of Snow Mountain House had such resilience.
He thought she would compromise quickly, having been spoiled all her life.
Thinking about it, Shen Han looked at the others beside him, unable to hide a look of helplessness.
“Brother Fu, Fairy Su, it seems that the three of us can only scout ahead first…”
The three began to mark as they walked forward.
Shen Han glanced back at Yao Wanning.
If she wouldn’t be moved, then that’s how it had to be.
After all, he couldn’t really hurt her…
After a moment’s hesitation, the three had no choice but to navigate the maze.
Shen Han continued to lead, with Su Jinyu and Fu Tianqi following, ready for any unexpected incidents.
With their realm of strength gone, they had to be on guard against even more situations.
The smallest mishap could result in injury.
As soon as Shen Han’s group stepped away, Yao Wanning slowly stood up.
She pinched her thigh, pain…
Nothing but pain…
No trace of that delightful feeling.
Thinking she might have done it wrong, Yao Wanning untied the band from her hair.
Emulating Shen Han, she fiercely struck her own thigh.
The pain was almost the same…
But aside from the pain, there seemed to be no other sensation.
The feeling she somewhat longed for seemed only to occur when Shen Han struck her…
In her Heart Thought, she still desired to experience it again…
After some hesitation, Fairy Wanning followed them.
Each step Shen Han’s group took was with caution.
Thus, their slow pace allowed Yao Wanning to catch up.
“Wait, I’ve decided, I’ll go with you after all…”
At these words, Shen Han felt a slight relief.
It was fortunate Fairy Wanning didn’t push it too far.
Otherwise, it would have been a considerable waste of time and energy to go back for her.
“Thank you, Fairy Wanning, for your understanding. With your cooperation, obtaining the legacy will be much smoother.”
Seeing Yao Wanning catch up, Su Jinyu was the happiest.
She even bounced over to Yao Wanning, eagerly wanting to reach out to her.
But Yao Wanning gave her hand one look and showed a trace of disdain.
Seeing this, Su Jinyu wisely withdrew her hand.
Witnessing this, Shen Han’s previously relieved brow creased again.
“You can follow, but let me be clear.
If you won’t listen to advice or follow arrangements,
then I’m sorry, but this strap in my hand will still be used against you when necessary.”
Shen Han said this mainly to frighten Yao Wanning.
To ensure she would heed advice in the future.
But Shen Han didn’t realize this was exactly what she hoped for…
If Shen Han didn’t hit her, she might not have wanted to follow at all…
“Are you listening to me?”
Though Yao Wanning heard Shen Han, she purposefully ignored him.
And began to advance alone, regardless of the danger.
The group was startled by this.
Shen Han quickly pulled her back, frowning: “Have you a death wish?
If there had been a trap up ahead, you would have been dead.”
Behind them, Su Jinyu also wanted to voice her concern.
But before she could, Yao Wanning shook off Shen Han’s hand, ready to move forward again.
At this moment, Shen Han decided not to indulge her any longer.
He took Su Jinyu’s hairband and struck once more.
The sound was loud, and it seemed painful.
Yao Wanning also rubbed her aching thigh.
Beneath the pain, sure enough, that delightful feeling began to rise.
She guessed correctly; that feeling only emerged when Shen Han hit her…
After being hit once more, Yao Wanning became compliant.
She also understood; she couldn’t push her luck too far.
If she did, Shen Han and the others might just abandon her.
This second maze was noticeably easier.
Even the Mechanism traps were more conspicuous.
It was evident that the Immortal who built this Secret Realm intended for those who entered to be tested.
To see if they could solve his challenges without their strength.
This second maze took the four of them three two-hour periods to navigate and finally exit.
The narrow passage areas finally began to open up.
Along the journey, Yao Wanning was hit eleven times.
Su Jinyu remembered each one clearly.
The slightly good thing was that this time, Yao Wanning didn’t stubbornly resist.
As long as she was hit once, she behaved.
But it wouldn’t take long before she’d cause trouble again.
