飞行员和小空乘POP

After the vines brought Amon before Wei Sui, she used the free vines to violently tore the clothes on Amon's body. Amon was now naked except for the Self-adjusting chainmail on his upper body. The chainmail failed to protect him as several of the vines punctured through it, but the vines couldn't puncture as deep as the other parts that were not covered by this chainmail.

Wei Sui controlled and pulled out one of the vines that were stabbing Amon's lower waist. There was a gaping hole where the vines had stabbed.

Wei Sui released one hand from the ground while the other remained touching the ground. She then used the finger of her free hand to poke inside that wound.

"Still no sound? Hehe, you are quite a challenge, boy. But I swear I will hear your beautiful scream."

Wei Sui stabbed her finger deeper and wiggled around. When she saw Amon remained silent, her eyes narrowed. She was dissatisfied. Why did this boy continue to deny her the pleasure of revenge?

She pulled her finger out and then pinched the skin beside the wound. She slowly pulled. Tearing the skin slowly as she twirled her fingers.

Amon just gritted his teeth but otherwise utter no voice.

"You think you are tough? Do you think you are tough?! My Lhosa was a hundred times tougher than you…!!!" She proceeded to rip the skin in her fingers violently. A long tear was seen along Amon's waist.

Amon still uttered nothing except for one heavy breath.

This might be the first time Amon went through torture in this life. But in his past life, he had experienced it aplenty. Whether as the one carrying out the deed, or as one who was on the receiving end. He had learned to partition his mind to dampen the pain. After many experiences, he had somehow developed a very high pain tolerance. The torturers that had the misfortune of torturing him always thought that his pain tolerance was abnormal.

It was a misfortune for the torturers because not one of them ever ended up with a good ending.

As Amon denied Wei Sui the satisfaction of enjoying her revenge, he continued to look for a chance to deal with his current situation. His eyes looked around slowly as he tried to look for an opportunity.

"You are still not giving up?" Wei Sui noticed Amon's eyes. She never stopped her torture, but Amon's eyes didn't even pay attention to her. It annoyed her greatly.

"Forget it! Do you not feel your body getting tired? You must have spent a lot of aether running all day and night using movement art, but that is not the reason you are tired. My vines here can absorb their victim's aether. So, even if you try to absorb aether to refill your energy, it will just get absorbed by my vines. You won't have the strength to do anything."

'So, that's why…,' Amon thought. He indeed had focused on using cultivation art to absorb aether. Not to mention, his body also constantly absorbed aether by itself. But somehow, all the aether he absorbed never enter his energy core. He even felt the remaining few aether inside his energy core getting slowly drained away. So, it was the work of the vines.

"Hahaha! Do you feel despair now?" Wei Sui laughed and mercilessly stabbed one finger into Amon's left eye.

"Hrghh…"

The action caused a low groan from Amon. Wei Sui was discontented. What she wanted was a loud scream. A loud and desperate and heart-wrenching scream, but the detestable boy continued to deny her wish. She was frustrated.

She pulled her finger out and then struck Amon's cheek with full force. Blood spurted from Amon's mouth. Her hand came back and struck again in the opposite direction.

"SCREAAMMM…!!!"

Yet, Amon remained silent.

Some clear, gel-like fluid dropped from Amon's mangled left eyeball. However, Amon's thought was far from his destroyed eye. Even as Wei Sui continued dishing out cruel punishments, Amon's mind was working inside his body.

Amon's energy space was indeed almost empty due to Wei Sui's vines. However, Amon sensed the other energy space was unaffected. The one that housed the black core. The aether inside there was completely intact.

'Why?' He thought. Was it because these vines were unable to interact with the aether inside there? The aether had indeed been transformed into dark energy after going into his black core.

However, the energy inside this black core was too weak. Even if he utilized its energy, not much force could be generated by it. It was useless.

'Hm?' His mind now went to the space in between his normal energy core and black core. The one where he had seen the energy from his two spaces mixed together. The mixed energy inside there was also still intact. It was not absorbed by the vines. Was it because it had some hues of the dark energy within?

The energy inside this mixed space was different. It was half-formed by his normal energy which was the power of the Peak Strength stage. He could use this energy. Furthermore, he had sensed that after mixing with the black energy, it wasn't weakened by the weak black energy. It was instead enhanced. How strong the enhancement was, he was not sure.

However, the amount of energy contained within this mixed space was very little. He estimated that he could only use it for a single attack. After that, it would be depleted. So, he only had one chance.

Wei Sui was still diligently tormenting Amon, trying her best to get that elusive scream from Amon's mouth. The more Amon denied her, the more furious she was. She got more and more brutal in her act, yet she was still clear-headed enough to keep one hand on the ground to maintain her vines.

Amon had lost several parts of him in the process. His left eye, left ear, and several of his left hand's fingers. Wei Sui had also cut his left foot, leaving only a stump under his ankle. Throughout the process, Amon remained silent.

Wei Sui was getting impatience. Her right hand formed a claw and her fingers dug right into the flesh of Amon's left thigh.

Amon could feel his blood turn cold around his tight.

Amon's remaining eye turned focus then. Wei Sui was using an art, which meant her mind was on the execution of the art. And since she was targeting his leg, her eyes were away from his hand.

Amon decided this was as good a chance as any. He dug into the space in between his two energy spaces and harnessed the mixed energy. He never used the energy from this mixed space before but the energy was as obedient as when he was using the energy from his normal energy space. Hence, he didn't have trouble converting that energy into his art.

A ring of water formed on his still intact right palm. This ring of water carried a tint of darkness along its edges. Amon's arm was locked by the vines, so it couldn't move. But his wrist and hand were not. His hand waved and the ring of water was thrown at Wei Sui.

It only took a split second for Amon to form his Water Slicing Ring and threw it soon after. Yet, Wei Sui, being an experienced expert, still detected it despite being distracted.

Amon threw his ring in the direction of Wei Sui's left shoulder. Her left arm was controlling the vines, which made that part to be less likely to move. However, before the ring of water hit, a vine came in between.

Before, Amon's Water Slicing Ring only managed to cut halfway into the vine. This time, it sliced through as if the vine was a piece of paper. Wei Sui had no time to respond as at the same time her vine was cut, so did her shoulder.

A wide gash appeared on Wei Sui's shoulder. The ring of water had cut through even her bone.

"AARRRGGHHHH…," She hollered as the pain set in.

She lost control of her left arm and it left the ground. All the vines that were holding Amon lost strength and dropped to the ground. Amon that was being held by the vines above ground also fell.

Amon only had the strength to commit one attack, but it failed to kill Wei Sui. Despite the water ring still hitting Wei Sui, she had tilted her body slightly forward. So, the water ring went past sideway through her shoulder instead of going directly into her body and hitting her heart.

For a high-level cultivator, such a wound although grievous, was not necessarily fatal. If Amon had successfully hit her heart, then things would have been different.

Yet, Amon didn't stop just because he missed his target. While falling, Amon summoned one of his poison knives. He then drew energy from the only remaining space available. His black core. As he did, a dark aura enshrouded his body.

Wei Sui, despite fully in pain, still noticed the change. Her hoarse voice uttered, "de… demon energy…?!"
