She Was Sentenced to Life Imprisonment [Unlimited] - Chapter 11

Chapter 11

◎ Who exactly are you? ◎

A light appeared on the horizon. The crow of a rooster seemed to wake up the sleeping village.

Jiang Nan opened her eyes under the sycamore tree. She was still a little dazed and only heard a lazy sigh from beside her, stretching her back, which pulled her back to reality.

“Little Jiang Nan, the sky is already bright. We didn’t do anything last night. Let’s go back.”

Luo Ning stretched lazily. The expression on her face was still languid, as if the illusion had not had any effect on her at all. It was just a dream.

After she finished speaking, she took a long stride and was about to leave. But at this moment, a hand grabbed her wrist with a merciless force.

A person instantly pressed against Luo Ning’s back, and a sharp short knife was pressed against her neck, as if it could take her life at any moment.

This was the most vulnerable part of a person, but Luo Ning seemed to be completely unconcerned. A hint of playfulness even flashed in her eyes.

“Who exactly are you? Why can you use my knife? Are you…” Are you her.

However, before she could finish, she was interrupted by Luo Ning, whose voice was still smiling as she changed the subject.

“Little Jiang Nan, are you turning your back on me?”

Although she was smiling, she didn’t give off any warmth. A powerful pressure seemed to weigh on people, making them breathless.

Jiang Nan was just an NPC from a dungeon. After leaving the dungeon, she had only met a few people, and the place she was in was just the most basic beginner’s dungeon. So, she didn’t understand what kind of lunatics the people in the “domain of sin” were.

She didn’t see the flash of killing intent in the other person’s eyes and spoke again in a cold tone.

“Please answer my question.”

Luo Ning raised her hand, ignoring the sharpness of the blade. Her finger pressed against the blade, forcefully moving it a few inches. When she put her hand down, a hand full of fresh bl00d was already flowing. She seemed to not feel the pain. Then she took out a white handkerchief and casually wiped the bl00d from her hand, saying indifferently.

“The Blade of Death, it’s just a weapon of the lowest tier. It’s not like I don’t know it.”

Hearing this, Jiang Nan was stunned. In those few seconds, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in the other person’s eyes. She twisted her arm and restrained her. The short knife was also conveniently pressed against Jiang Nan’s vital spot. She then spoke again, with a hint of a teasing tone.

“You shouldn’t ask what you shouldn’t ask, Little Jiang Nan.”

If someone were to look at them from behind, they would think their posture was too intimate.

Jiang Nan didn’t care about the blade on her neck, nor did she feel any fear. She just looked at the other person with an increasingly cold expression.

Luo Ning didn’t intend to hurt Jiang Nan. After a while, she let go of the other person, turned around, played with the short knife, and walked for a while, only to find that Jiang Nan had not followed her.

She stopped, tilted her head slightly, and spoke with a smile, her posture still lazy.

“Little Jiang Nan, if you don’t leave now, it’ll be too late.”

The breeze ruffled her hair. Jiang Nan looked at the other person’s back. She didn’t know if the wind had gotten into her eyes, but she felt that the figure was exceptionally familiar, free-spirited, and bright.

In the end, Jiang Nan still went back with her.

…

At this time, the atmosphere in the small courtyard where the players lived was particularly heavy. They sat around the courtyard, not saying a word, only the soft sobbing of a woman could be heard.

Su Man covered her face with her hands, crying in sobs, and said choked up.

“Why did you take off my mask?”

When she woke up on the ground, she felt that the mask she used to cover her scars had been taken off. Knowing that her ugly appearance had been exposed, she broke down even more.

The usually irritable Zhang Zheng didn’t talk back at this time. He just sat there blankly.

Well, he was in a precarious situation himself. He and Zhou Chen went out for a night and came back with two bloody holes.

No one among them was a doctor. Seeing their horrifying appearance, they didn’t dare to step forward and help.

The pain had already been numbed. The two of them were pulling their hair hard, so hard that it seemed like they were going to tear off their scalps, and they were mumbling to themselves.

“No, don’t come over. We’ll, we’ll never dare to do it again…”

The white-collar man was also scared at first when he saw their two bloody holes. He suddenly realized that this was not an ordinary game.

A hint of something hidden flashed in the depths of Li Tao’s slightly lowered eyes. He looked at the disabled people around him without a trace of disgust. His shrewd eyes then lowered again, and a figure flashed through his mind.

“Do you know where the other two went?”

After he mentioned it, the others realized that Jiang Nan and Luo Ning were not here. After Li Tao asked, his gaze turned to Su Man.

Su Man raised her red and swollen eyes, looked around blankly, and finally shook her head, saying.

“They went out last night…” At that time, she still wanted to go out and look for them.

At this time, the gate of the small courtyard was violently pushed open. There was a loud “bang,” and the old wooden door, unable to bear the weight, immediately hung on the door frame as if it were about to fall.

The person who came in was Nie Yun. She came in angrily and pointed at them, shouting.

“Who went out secretly last night?”

Nie Yun’s makeup skills were not very good. She used very white foundation and bright red lipstick, like an enraged paper doll.

When Zhang Zheng and Zhou Chen heard her voice, their bodies instinctively shivered, as if they had remembered something terrifying.

The two big men squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands, trembling and mumbling to themselves.

“It wasn’t me, it wasn’t me…”

Seeing that they were all denying it, Nie Yun’s gloomy gaze scanned them one by one, and finally stopped on the two people squatting on the ground, deceiving themselves. A strange smile appeared on her bright red lips. She walked behind them silently, like a ghost, and said.

“It must be you…”

Hearing this, the two men trembled even more and kept mumbling.

“No, it wasn’t me. You’ve got the wrong person…”

Nie Yun didn’t care. She had two strong men lift them up like little chicks. When she saw the bloody, terrifying, and hideous holes in their eyes, her smile grew even deeper. She reached out and caressed their faces, as if appreciating her own artwork.

The icy touch made the two of them want to hide in fear.

But they couldn’t resist at all. The next second, Nie Yun’s hand went into their eye sockets and dug around in the empty spaces, as if she was making sure that there were no more eyeballs inside.

The intense pain made them break out in a cold sweat. Fresh bl00d flowed down again, forming two lines of bloody tears. They screamed loudly, begging her to let go and crying for help.

Nie Yun’s hands were covered in bl00d, like a pair of bl00d-colored gloves, beautiful and dangerous.

She then nodded in satisfaction, retracted her hand, and motioned for the two big men to take those two people out.

Realizing that he was about to be taken away, Zhou Chen cried and struggled in the face of unknown fear, but he was punched hard to make him quiet down.

Li Tao, who had been silent on the side for a long time, had an unidentifiable emotion flash in his eyes. He said in a deep voice, trying his best to hide the fear he felt when he saw the bl00d.

“What are they going to do with them?”

It was also the first time Su Man had seen such a scene. She was terrified and her face was pale. Her fear was no less than that of the two who were being grabbed. At this time, she also cautiously looked up at Nie Yun.

Nie Yun seemed to be in a good mood and was happy to answer their questions, but the words she said were chilling.

“My wedding has to be beautiful, and I can’t let the best men go with empty eyes. So, of course, I have to find eyes for them.”

Li Tao fell into silence again because of her words, lowering his eyes, lost in thought.

“Oh, what’s all the excitement about?”

A playful female voice came from the entrance. They all looked over and saw Luo Ning and Jiang Nan walking unhurriedly into the courtyard gate.

The moment Nie Yun saw them, her eyes turned from clear to gloomy. She said in an ominous tone.

“You two went out last night too?”

Luo Ning started to lie without blushing or a racing heart.

“No, we got up this morning and felt hungry, so we came out to find something to eat, right?”

The last sentence was said to Jiang Nan, and she even nudged the other person with her elbow, motioning for her to continue her lie.

Jiang Nan came back to her senses, turned her head to look, and only saw the person beside her winking at her, motioning for her to speak.

Jiang Nan’s eyes drooped slightly, making it impossible to see her emotions. She then followed Luo Ning’s words.

“Yes, we came out this morning.”

Her body was thin and weak, looking like a weak willow in the wind, which made people feel pity for her and made Nie Yun, who was confronting them, look more aggressive.

Nie Yun’s sinister gaze turned to Li Tao and Su Man and asked.

“Are they telling the truth?”

Su Man was so scared by her gaze that she didn’t dare to look up and just kept nodding.

Li Tao looked at Luo Ning and Jiang Nan. When he saw that they were completely unharmed, he compared them to the disheveled Zhang Zheng and the others. His shrewd eyes darted around, and he had an idea in his mind. He also spoke.

“They are telling the truth.”

Hearing this, the sinister look in Nie Yun’s eyes faded a little. She nodded thoughtfully.

“It’s good that you know how to be obedient.”

“No!” Zhang Zheng screamed.

“They’re helping them lie…” Zhang Zheng knew he wouldn’t survive, so he screamed frantically, wanting to drag Luo Ning and Jiang Nan down with him.

However, it didn’t matter. Nie Yun didn’t care about their shouts at all.

“Someone will bring you food, but you must remember, before the wedding ends and you leave the village, you cannot go out at night. If I find out…”

She paused, then a gentle voice came from her bright red lips, which was particularly chilling.

“Otherwise, there will be a very scary punishment~”

The dragged-out ending made people feel nauseous.

Luo Ning didn’t seem to be afraid of her at all. She nodded and said.

“I got it. Hurry up and send the food over. We’re all hungry.”

After she said that, everyone else looked at her, and she really did just look like someone who was hungry and wanted to find something to eat.

However, the others had no appetite.

Nie Yun’s ominous eyes stared at Luo Ning, then landed on Jiang Nan beside her. She smiled ominously and said faintly.

“It will be here soon.”

After Nie Yun finished her instructions, she took the two people who had broken the rules and left the courtyard. The desperate pleas for mercy gradually disappeared, and everything seemed to return to peace.
