Gu Ying's face was slapped to the side and blood trickled out from the corner of his mouth. But Gu Yi's eyes did not show the slightest bit of heartache. That gaze was extremely cold, not looking like a father looking at his own son.
"Do you admit your mistake in this matter?" Gu Yi coldly asked.
Gu Ying calmly turned his head over, to look straight into Gu Yi's eyes. His face still held a brilliant smile, but the blood at the corner of his mouth was a ghastly sight to see. However, his eyes were filled with mirth, like the person who had been beaten up, was not him.
"I know I was wrong." Gu Ying said obediently.
"Useless trash, since you know you're in the wrong, why aren't you accepting your punishment?" Gu Yi's tone of voice did not contain the slightest bit of pity. He treated Gu Ying as if he was his most hated enemy, vicious and merciless.
"Yes." Gu Ying nodded slightly and turned to leave in silence.
Gu Yi stared at Gu Ying's back, his eyes filled with disgust.
Who would have thought that the Palace Lord of the Blood Fiend Palace would have such a bad relationship with his own son?
Gu Ying slowly walked out from Gu Yi's line of sight, the smile upon his face not diminishing in the slightest. The disciples of the Blood Fiend Palace who walked past him subconsciously lowered their heads the moment they saw Gu Ying, not daring to look at the wretched state Gu Ying was in.
It was not the first time such a situation had happened. It was not known why the usually amiable and calm Palace Lord would be so cruel towards the Young Lord. It had been like this when Gu Ying was still very young. Gu Yi's harshness and strictness towards him had made all the bystanders feel their hearts wrench. Everyone had initially thought that the Blood Fiend Palace Lord was only so strict because he hoped for his son to achieve greatness in life. But when Gu Yi treated his own daughter, Gu Xin Yan, he was not so harsh at all, but just like a real father. Although there were times when he was strict, but most of the time, it was filled with love and pampering towards Gu Xin Yan.
Gu Ying walked past the Blood Fiend Palace like there was no one there, the red palm print on his face and the blood stains at the corner of his mouth making people not dare to look at him. He walked alone towards the Blood Fiend Palace's dungeon, the place where disciples of the Blood Fiend Palace received their punishments.
The dark and damp dungeon was filled with all sorts of torture devices that made one's hair stand on end. When the disciples in the dungeon saw Gu Ying appear, they immediately went forward to bow.
Gu Ying completely ignored them, and walked to the side of the scaffold.
"I'm here to receive my punishment." Gu Ying said lightly.
The several men guarding the dungeon exchanged a glance and stepped forward silently. They helped Gu Ying to take off his outer clothes, leaving him with only a thin inner robe, before they tied him up onto the rack.
The sound of whipping reverberated in the dark dungeon. It was especially ear-piercing in the silence.
The sound lasted for half a day and only stopped late at night.
The disciple carrying out the punishment had already retreated from the dungeon. In the dimly lit dungeon, there was only a bloodied Gu Ying who was tied to the rack alone, his head slightly drooped. His thin inner robes had been whipped to shreds and the crisscrossing wounds on his body were visible, blood staining the wounds. Only that handsome face of his did not have the slightest scar on it, but it was already pale and bloodless.
Gu Ying's eyes were tightly shut and his hair was slightly disheveled. He looked like he had fallen into a deep slumber and was still fastened to the rack by the rope that was tied around his wrists.
Quietly, a dark shadow walked out from the dim light and looked at Gu Ying who was tied to the rack with a slight frown.
"Young Lord."
Gu Ying's eyes suddenly opened. He raised his head and saw a long lash extending from his ear all the way to his collarbone.
