"Hmph hmph! Celestial Nation disciples? They're nothing more than a bunch of arrogant fellows! If they didn't have such a powerful background, what would they be? " Zhou Hongyi didn't hide his thoughts at all. He stared coldly at Xiao Chen, who was being tortured by him, and started mumbling to himself.
"If not for those damned Celestial Nation disciples back then, this Seat would have gotten a share of that reward as well! Hmph, how hateful. This Seat has wasted my energy, time, and even a considerable amount of wealth, only to be looked down upon by those arrogant Celestial Nation disciples. What right do they have to look down on this Seat?
"If not for the Celestial Nation backing me, this Seat could have easily torn them apart!"
Zhou Hongyi continued to mumble to himself, not bothering to hide his words. Even though Xiao Chen was in great pain, he could still hear every word clearly.
After listening for a long while, Xiao Chen finally understood. Something unpleasant must have happened between this Zhou Hongyi and the Celestial Nation disciples, which was why he was so resentful.
As a result, Zhou Hongyi was dissatisfied with him for being able to compete with the Celestial Nation disciples, which was why he was intentionally torturing him like this.
'Damn it, this old thing is really a pervert. He suffered a loss at the hands of the Celestial Nation disciples back then, but he didn't have the ability or the guts to seek revenge on them. Instead, he's using himself to vent his anger? 'Xiao Chen was furious.
He had vaguely sensed that something was amiss. Even though he had killed this Zhou Hongyi's grandson, there was no need for this old man to specially send two powerful Celestial King experts to ambush him for so many days just to capture him alive.
Now, he finally understood why this old man wanted to capture him alive. Apart from taking revenge for Zhou De, the main reason was to satisfy this old thing Zhou Hongyi's perverted desire for revenge.
"You're already at the Celestial Emperor realm, yet your mind is still so twisted? You really are an old pervert! " Xiao Chen listened to Zhou Hongyi muttering to himself and looked at him strangely from time to time. He felt that this old fellow was probably possessed.
Clearly, what had happened between that old geezer Zhou Hongyi and the disciples of the Celestial Nation all those years ago was probably the greatest taboo and sore spot in his heart!
Even after so many years had passed and he had already become a powerful Immortal Emperor, he still couldn't get over it. In fact, he had even resorted to torturing Xiao Chen, who wasn't even a disciple of the Celestial Nation and could only fight on par with a disciple of the Celestial Nation, in order to fulfill his desire for revenge.
If this wasn't abnormal, then what was?
Although Xiao Chen had figured out the main reason why the old man was torturing him, he still couldn't see any hope of survival.
Moreover, this old thing was willing to torture him for ten thousand years just to satisfy his perverted desire for revenge. Presumably, he would not let him off so easily.
"What should we do? At this rate of torture, not to mention ten thousand years, my soul will probably be badly damaged in a few decades, or at most a hundred years. At that time, even if I manage to survive, I will become a complete cripple! " As he endured Zhou Hongyi's torture, Xiao Chen forced himself to calm down and try his best to think of a solution.
Although he had been captured by this old pervert and couldn't see any hope of survival, Xiao Chen really didn't want to give up just like that.
As long as he was alive, there would be hope!
Although this hope was very slim and almost impossible to see.
As for hoping for others to rescue him?
Putting aside the fact that Wen Xiu and the others couldn't figure out that the person who captured him was Zhou Hongyi, even if they managed to track him down, with the Zhou Clan's strength and that old geezer, Zhou Hongyi, who was already an extremely powerful Immortal Emperor, they wouldn't be able to save him unless that old geezer came out of seclusion.
But now that old geezer was in seclusion and the entire Southern Soul Immortal Sect was suffering from the attacks of the Extreme Immortal Palace, it was almost impossible for the other Immortal Emperors of the Southern Soul Immortal Sect to offend the Zhou Clan for him.
Therefore, Xiao Chen did not think it was possible for him to rely on others to rescue him.
Of course, if Chen Jianneng were to intervene, there might still be a chance. But in this situation, he had no way of communicating with the outside world.
Therefore, he could only rely on himself!
But relying on himself?
At the thought of this, Xiao Chen was also extremely depressed.
With his strength, he couldn't even resist Zhou Hongyi's attack, let alone save himself.
A few days passed and that old geezer, Zhou Hongyi, didn't do anything. Every day, he would drink and torture him.
Xiao Chen didn't know how the Southern Soul Immortal Sect would react but he didn't think about it. In any case, there weren't many people in the Southern Soul Immortal Sect who could save him.
After being tortured for a few days, Xiao Chen's condition had deteriorated.
However, that perverted old geezer, Zhou Hongyi, was still in high spirits.
It was as if torturing Xiao Chen gave him a perverted sense of pleasure.
It allowed him to vent all the anger that he wanted to vent on the Celestial Nation disciples but couldn't.
Finally, after more than ten days, Zhou Hongyi finally stopped for a while.
He imprisoned Xiao Chen and left for the time being.
However, he still set up a method to slowly burn Xiao Chen's soul.
Although it was still very painful, it was much better than when Zhou Hongyi was torturing him.
"Big Brother Xiao Chen!!" Not long after Zhou Hongyi left, the muddle-headed Xiao Chen heard Donghuang Zhong's voice in his mind.
"Little Zhong? You're awake? "Xiao Chen's eyes lit up.
Ever since the trial, Donghuang Zhong hadn't contacted him and had fallen into a deep sleep. Now that he had woken up, Xiao Chen was pleasantly surprised.
"Big Brother Xiao, what happened to you? How did you get yourself into such a dangerous situation? Back in the trial palace, I put myself into a deep sleep to prevent myself from being exposed. That old man was too powerful, I didn't dare to contact you! Actually, I woke up just now, but that Celestial Emperor was also quite powerful, so I didn't dare to contact you directly! "Donghuang Zhong explained softly.
"I know! As long as you're fine! "Xiao Chen replied.
"But Big Brother Xiao, your condition is very serious!" Donghuang Zhong was very worried.
"Of course I know that, but I can't escape at all. I have no other choice!" Xiao Chen could only smile bitterly.
"That damned old thing, how dare he use such a method to torture your soul! This won't do, Big Brother Xiao, we have to find a way to escape. If this goes on, it won't be long before your soul source is damaged, and it will be difficult for you to advance in the future! "Donghuang Zhong cursed angrily.
"But you saw for yourself that the other party is a Celestial Emperor. How can I escape in my current state?" Xiao Chen felt very helpless.
