Chapter 737: Chapter 313 Go With the Flow_2

Li Zhongming spoke out:

“Indeed, the Lady hails from the Western Border Marquis Family, a direct descendant of the Western Border’s foremost lineage.

“When she and I, the Great Hall Master of Wusheng Hall, joined in matrimony, it was considered a wonderful tale at the ti.”

“Wonderful tale…”

With a long sigh, Lady Wan said, “If I had the foresight to see into the future, I would never have spoken thoughtlessly and brought about the subsequent misfortunes upon myself.

“Alas, back then, I could not see into the future; I only knew that the Great Hall Master of Wusheng Hall genuinely wanted to marry , and I was both startled and overjoyed.

“In the end, I happily donned the grand red wedding robe my mother sewed for and boarded the sedan sent by Wusheng Hall to beco a part of Wusheng Hall!

“On the wedding day, I couldn’t see his face, but even just hearing his voice made feel uneasy, yet I was full of anticipation for the future.

“Who could have thought… on the first day of the marriage, he didn’t even lift my red veil before sinking into a deep sleep.

“I sat at the head of the bed, waiting all night long.

“He did not even open his eyes to glance at …

“I convinced myself that he was just too tired.

“The Great Hall Master’s wedding was such a grand affair.

“He had to entertain guests from all directions, had to drink a lot, and speak a lot.

“Now that I’m the Great Hall Master’s wife, I must be understanding; I can’t be as wilful as when I was in the won’s quarters.

“So, I lifted the veil myself and drank a cup of Wedding Night Wine alone.

“Yet, as I drank, he woke up.

“Turning around, he sat silently at the head of the bed, watching … I intended to call out ‘my husband,’ but before I could finish, I could no longer speak.

“The look he gave was not what one gives their spouse.

“It was as if… he was looking at an enemy, a corpse…

“That gaze still haunts my dreams at midnight, startling awake.

“Then he stood up and left without a word.”

As Lady Wan reached this point in her story, the tremor and fear in her eyes appeared genuine.

Thinking it over, Wan Yutang indeed seed unwilling to marry her back then, yet obligations made it necessary.

Naturally, he wouldn’t show her any good attitude.

“In fact… at that mont, I knew I had married the wrong person. I shouldn’t have married into Wan Yutang…

“However, a sliver of hope still lingered in my heart.

“I told myself he was just too tired and had too many important affairs to handle.

“Romantic affairs are crucial, but they must be set aside when faced with Wusheng Hall’s major matters…

“The result was nearly two years of deferral.

“During that ti, people would ask , ‘Since your marriage, why have you had no offspring?’

“What should my reply have been?

“Could I have told them that, for nearly two years, my husband spoke less than three sentences to ?

“Could I have confessed that every night, he rested in his study, ignoring and inquiring nothing about ?

“I couldn’t!

“I could only respond with a smile. But after showing a smile in public, what cos after in private?

“I thought about putting an end to it all, but I couldn’t help feeling dissatisfied.

“Eventually, I could no longer hold back and went to the study one night to resolve things with him… However, what I saw was unbelievable.”

She looked up at everyone:

“He was… peeling off human skin!”

“Peeling off human skin?”

Su Mo showed a perfectly tid expression of astonishnt.

Li Zhongming and the other Hall Masters were shocked:

“How could this be? Lady… Are you sure you didn’t see it wrong?”

“In Wan Yutang’s study, there is a secret chamber.

“That night when I went to find him, no one was in his study, but the secret chamber was not locked tightly.

“Perhaps it was fate, or maybe because no one dared enter his study… he was careless.

“In any case, I couldn’t find him in the study, but I saw light leaking from the secret entrance behind the bookshelf. Out of curiosity, I went down the steps of the corridor.

“I hadn’t gone far when I ca upon a place resembling a torture chamber, illuminated by the light of the fire.

“Wan Yutang, wielding a Skinning Knife, had a person suspended in mid-air; he wielded the knife from top to bottom to peel…

“By the ti I arrived, he had peeled down to the waist.

“Looking down, I recognized the face of the person and could no longer suppress my shock; that person… I know him, and so do you all.”

“Who?”

Among the Hall Masters, soone imdiately asked.

“… The forr Second Hall Master, Xiao Xiong.”

“What?”

“This can’t be…”

“Master Wan, why would he do such a thing?”

“Xiao Xiong, Hall Master Xiao, has been missing, and Wusheng Hall could not find him… Could it be because of this?”

As the Hall Masters discussed, they couldn’t help but turn their gaze to one among them.

They saw Xiao Feng of Gui Cang Blade step forward, his face filled with astonishnt as he looked at Lady Wan:

“The Lady’s words… Are they true?”

“Every word of it.”

Lady Wan looked at Xiao Feng with eyes full of apology:

“If I have lied, may I not die a peaceful death.”

Xiao Feng closed his eyes, his hand’s veins bulging as a faint hum of knives resonated from his sheath, heavy as tal.

Then suddenly, he opened his eyes and faced Lady Wan:

“Does the Lady know why Master Wan wanted to harm my father?”

“Because he wanted to practice the Shadow Magic of Eternal Night Valley…”

Before everyone could once again be shocked by this Shadow Magic, Lady Wan continued:

“That night, as I witnessed such a scene, I could no longer contain my astonishnt and thus exposed my presence.
