Limitless Ascension: Strength Amid Adversity – Chapter 552

Just then, my wrist was grabbed tightly by a jade hand, like a vice grip.

Bo Chengli’s face changed dramatically because it was Li Ruotong who had caught his wrist!

“Y-you… how come…”

Cold sweat was pouring down Bo Chengli’s forehead as fear made him tremble all over.

He thought the other party had recovered!

In reality, Li Ruotong was only holding onto his wrist, her expression still numb, her eyes lifeless, just like when she was out cold.

“Hmm?”

Bo Chengli sensed something was off, his face full of confusion.

What was going on?

He didn’t dare to act rashly, letting Li Ruotong slowly release his hand, standing there with her arms hanging down, as if her earlier action was merely a coincidence.

But only Bo Chengli knew something was definitely wrong!

To confirm his suspicions, Bo Chengli mustered his courage to reach out again, and as before, she grabbed his wrist, making it impossible for him to move.

“Damn it, could it be her subconscious is acting up?”

Thinking of this, Bo Chengli’s face looked grim.

Since Li Ruotong hadn’t completely fallen under, she retained a shred of consciousness fighting back, so any action that she strongly resisted would trigger her self-protection mechanism instinctively.

That’s why whenever he attempted something inappropriate, she would immediately stop him!

If she were a woman who fully obeyed him, she wouldn’t refuse but would obediently cooperate like a lovesick partner!

That was the difference!

Once he understood the reason, Bo Chengli felt extremely frustrated.

Can I really not touch this woman?

Is it all about mindset?

Staring at the elegant and cold woman before him, unyielding Bo Chengli decided to take a risk and give it a go.

“I ask you, are you willing to do anything for me?”

Li Ruotong replied dully, “I… I am.”

“Then take off your clothes!”

Bo Chengli crazily probed.

“Okay.”

Li Ruotong raised her hand and swung it hard.

Rip!

Accompanied by the sound of tearing fabric, a gust of wind blew by.

Bo Chengli couldn’t believe his eyes, hurriedly looking down—turns out it was his clothes that were gone!

“Whoa!!!”

Bo Chengli didn’t expect Li Ruotong would strip him of his clothes!

“I meant for you to take off your own clothes, not mine! Got it?” Bo Chengli said, exasperated.

Li Ruotong’s face remained blank; her voice without any emotional change, “Got it.”

“Then hurry up and do it!”

Bo Chengli raised his voice a little, seething with anger.

But to his surprise, Li Ruotong did nothing upon receiving the command, standing there like a block of wood.

This made Bo Chengli both furious and amused.

He knew very well this was Li Ruotong’s subconscious resisting such action.

Although Bo Chengli really wanted to strip her of all her clothes, his strength simply couldn’t allow him to do that.

“You shameless woman, do you love me or not? Just say it!” Bo Chengli thought of another way to question her.

This was the core ability of the Yin-Yang Absorption Technique, which could make every woman affected unconditionally love him.

So, she would also do anything for love!

“I love…”

Li Ruotong said blankly.

“Okay, since you love me, how will you express that love for me?” Bo Chengli coaxed her, determined to take advantage of Li Ruotong’s body to make up for his previous humiliation.

After a few seconds of silence, Li Ruotong slowly raised her hand, then expressionless, slapped him across the face.

Smack!

The crisp sound of the slap rang out.

“Ah…” Bo Chengli was knocked to the ground, his ears ringing, his head buzzing, blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, one side of his face a bloody mess, seeing stars.

It took him a while to gather himself, trembling, he pointed a finger and said, his voice shaking, “W-why did you hit me?!”

“Young Master, this is my way of expressing love to you,” Li Ruotong replied.

“What?!”

Bo Chengli was dumbfounded.

No way, this girl must be out of her mind?

What man could endure this type of love?

“Cough, cough, aside from this, do you have other ways? Something a bit gentler and more pleasant.”

Bo Chengli wasn’t giving up.

“There is.”

Saying this, Li Ruotong now had a whip in hand, and she mercilessly lashed it at the unprotected Bo Chengli.

Every swing of the whip created a loud crack in the air.

“Ah! Ahhh! Ahhhh!! Ahhhhhh!!!”

Bo Chengli was wracked with unbearable pain, his body covered in blood marks, and each lash had him screeching like a pig being slaughtered, drenched in cold sweat, his limbs convulsing.

“Stop! Stop it! Please stop!”

Bo Chengli shouted in a hurry.

“Yes.”

Upon receiving the command, Li Ruotong finally ceased her actions, the long black whip stained with blood, a horrifying sight.

“Ha… ha… ha…”

Bo Chengli lay on the ground, covered in sweat and blood, gasping for air, feeling like he had survived a calamity.

This was an unprecedented painful experience, but for some reason, he strangely found a bit of pleasure in it!

So curious!

“What’s going on?!”

At this moment, several other races’ Immortal Emperors, hearing the commotion, quickly unleashed their Divine Sense to check the situation.

Upon seeing Bo Chengli stark naked, covered in countless blood marks, sprawled on the ground panting like a dead dog, while Li Ruotong stood there expressionless, holding the black whip, her noble demeanor akin to a queen, they were all stunned.

What in the world?

Could it be they were playing some obscure game?

“This little friend, your hobby is quite unique,” King Youtai said with a strange expression.

“Didn’t expect you to enjoy this, I’m quite curious what fun this gameplay brings?” Red-Haired Yaksha King said in astonishment.

The other Immortal Emperors from different races chimed in, making Bo Chengli wish he could just disappear into a crack in the ground.

So freaking embarrassing!

At this point, Bo Chengli certainly wouldn’t admit it was his own mistake; he chuckled awkwardly, steeling himself to speak nonsense, “You see, this kind of play is beneficial for refining a cultivator’s body; it can train and also release one’s body and mind. This unique method, I typically don’t share with others.”

Upon hearing such a ridiculous explanation, the other Immortal Emperors fell silent.

Then, they quietly withdrew their Divine Sense, not wanting to witness the upcoming eye-aching scene.

Inside the room.

Bo Chengli looked at the numbed Li Ruotong before him, feeling a pain in his chest that made him tremble.

To be honest, he even suspected she was faking it, otherwise, why would she torture him so?

“This is your love for me? Are you sure?” Bo Chengli asked through gritted teeth.

Li Ruotong replied expressionlessly, “Yes, Young Master. If you feel unsatisfied, I can continue to express my way of loving someone.”

As she spoke, she raised the whip, ready to continue her punishment.

Seeing this,

Bo Chengli’s scalp went numb, and he frantically waved his hands, moving into the corner, terrified, “N-no! Just put that thing away and get out! I don’t want to see you right now!”

“Yes.”

Li Ruotong put away the whip and walked out of the room.

Bo Chengli helplessly huddled in the corner, the pain all over his body made him want to cry without tears; after the bloody lesson he just experienced, he no longer dared to have any improper thoughts.

Scared, scared!

This kind of love was far too heavy; he simply couldn’t bear it!!!
