Chapter 233 Illusion Punishment

"what--!"

A bloodcurdling scream erupted from inside the Zhao residence. The wealthy man, Zhao, stared with bulging eyes and bloodshot veins, gripping the bed beneath him tightly, his body trembling violently like a sieve.

Ye Pianran, Ye Lingyue, and Wang Bao, who were standing not far away, were surprised to see that the thick sores on Zhao Yuanwai's back suddenly started to gush blood like boiling water, and white maggots could be vaguely seen wriggling inside!

"Oh my god!"

Upon witnessing this scene, Wang Bao was so terrified that he scrambled out of the house in a panic. Just then, the guards of the Zhao family heard Zhao Yuanwai's screams and arrived at the door. They grabbed Wang Bao and asked:

"What happened? What's wrong with the master?"

"Master, sir—" Wang Bao, still shaken, pointed into the room, his words incoherent.

Seeing that he couldn't speak clearly, the head guard simply cursed and rushed into the house. Upon entering, he saw the horrific state of Master Zhao and immediately turned pale with fright. He drew his sword, ready to rush forward, but Ye Pianran stopped him, saying:

"Don't go near it, this thing might be contagious."

Upon hearing this, the guards behind him disregarded their mission and quickly retreated outside.

When Master Zhao saw that even his trusted confidants were avoiding him, he was both angry and anxious. He pointed at them and was about to curse them, but all he could manage were cries of pain.

Tortured to the point of madness, Master Zhao felt his vision blur and could see nothing clearly. Yet, within that blurred vision, only a pale green stood out. He remembered it was the female doctor who had come to treat him, and frantically reached out his hand towards that green.

"Help—Help—"

Ye Lingyue quickly pulled Ye Pianran back a step, then stood in front of Ye Pianran, placing her left hand on her waist where the long whip was hidden, and whispered to Ye Pianran:

"Miss, this man's actions were so heinous that he deserved such a terrible fate. Why not just let him die on his own?"

Ye Pianran frowned, deep in thought.

Only now does she truly understand the meaning behind the third question Liu Lulu asked when she became Liu Lulu's apprentice.

And now, she faces such a choice—

If the rumors are true, this Master Zhao must have been a tyrannical and domineering man who had committed countless evil deeds and harmed many innocent girls. His current retribution is entirely deserved and truly gratifying.

However, in order to accumulate more experience and spiritual energy and level up as soon as possible, she could not give up this series of quests.

To save or not to save? This is a question that every doctor will have to face.

“Miss…no…Doctor…” Zhao, the wealthy man in front, stammered, “As long as…you heal me…heal me…I’ll give you…anything you want…”

When she first became Liu Lulu's apprentice, how did she answer him?

To protect myself, while treating my enemy, I will administer a poison that only I can cure. If she tries to cause trouble again after I've cured her, then I will personally end her life!

Yes, that was her answer at the time.

She can cure this Master Zhao, but she will also make sure he can no longer act recklessly in the future!

With a sharp look in her eyes, Ye Pianran said, "Yue'er, go and close the door."

Upon hearing this, Ye Lingyue knew that she still intended to save Master Zhao. She sighed inwardly, turned around, and slammed the door shut in front of the group of terrified guards outside.

Ye Pianran looked down at Zhao Yuanwai, who was gushing blood and pus, with white maggots growing from his wounds. She twitched her finger slightly and silently recited in her mind:

"Lingyuan, go, make that man experience the most terrifying nightmare, so that he can never approach women again!"

The Spirit Abyss Vine silently emerged from the ground and climbed onto Master Zhao's bed. When it approached Master Zhao, it hesitated slightly, seemingly disgusted with him. In the end, under Ye Pianran's command, it had no choice but to wrap itself around him, its vines digging deep into Master Zhao's ankles.

The pain from Lingyuan piercing Zhao Yuanwai's body was negligible compared to the pain in his back, so he didn't even notice it. He only felt a sudden numbness in his body, followed by the burning and tingling sensation in his back receding abruptly. He felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and even his soul became numb.

Then, Master Zhao found himself suddenly in a misty grove of trees, and the sores on his back had all disappeared.

what happened? This is where?

The situation was too bizarre, and Master Zhao couldn't help but feel a little flustered. As he looked around, he suddenly heard the giggling of many women nearby.

"Oh dear, you've run into this place, how mean of you!"

"Ugh~ Stay away from me~ This lake is so small, I can barely sit down~"

"Sister, there are some things I can't reach, could you wipe them for me?"

The sounds were either as melodious as a nightingale's song or as sweet and pleasant as a gentle breeze, filled with the passion of spring, which stirred his heart and made him lose his composure.

He quickly walked forward, rounded a large tree, and saw a small lake ahead, in which nine women were bathing. The nine beauties were all different in appearance, yet each one was more beautiful than the last. They had not removed their clothes, but because they were wet, they were partially visible, making them even more alluring.

Upon seeing Master Zhao suddenly appear, they did not appear flustered, but instead chattered amongst themselves, laughing:

"Sister, look, there's a man over there."

"Yes, how come there's a man here?"

"Look at his eyes, oh dear~"

Should we invite him to come along?

"Now that he's here, there's no way we're going to let him go."

Seeing this, the nine women all waved to Master Zhao and said with smiles, "Sir, come on over~ Would you like to play in the water with us sisters?"

"Very well, beauties, I'm coming!"

Upon seeing this, Master Zhao no longer cared whether it was strange or not. He immediately laughed and ran towards the lake, hastily taking off his clothes as he ran.

As soon as he jumped into the lake, the women clung to him softly, surrounding Zhao Yuanwai in the middle of the lake, serving him until every bone in his body melted.

Since the boils appeared on Zhao's back, he had not had sexual relations with his concubines. He found that whenever he had such thoughts, the boils on his back would become more painful and worse. That's why he was so eager to find someone to cure the boils on his back.

Now, the long-awaited feeling suddenly returned, and Master Zhao felt as if he were about to ascend to immortality.

"My lord, look how energetic you are! Come and pamper me!"

Hearing the woman's giggles, Master Zhao came to his senses and immediately smiled, wanting to "show off his prowess." But the next second, the nine beauties surrounding him all changed their expressions, suddenly grabbed his neck, held down his hands and feet, and forcefully pushed his head into the water!
