Chapter 38: The Interrogation Tool Designed for Chivalrous Women—Afraid Yet?
The room remained silent for a few seconds.
Ye Xueyi’s body, drained of strength, slid off the young man.
She withdrew her obedient expression, now appearing somewhat lost and despondent.
She had failed…
Even after seeking him out voluntarily, even after putting on such an expression, she had still failed.
From the moment she arrived in the capital, none of her plans had succeeded.
Was she truly incapable of accomplishing anything?
Failing her plans and being bullied in return was one thing, but even now, she could do nothing.
She could already imagine the fate of her martial aunt, who had been so kind to her.
Before long, she would be displayed in all sorts of pitiful ways, left to cry out helplessly.
For the proud goddess, this was undoubtedly a heavy blow.
As an inexperienced noblewoman, she still lacked the resilience to endure such pressure, and a wave of bitterness filled her heart.
She wanted to cry.
The usually aloof and proud goddess of the sect had slightly reddened eyes.
Her crimson pupils shimmered with unshed tears, and her lips trembled lightly as she bit down.
At this moment, there was no pretense—only raw, unfiltered emotion.
Her soft, pitiful appearance was far more enticing than before.
Then, Ye Xueyi’s fair cheeks were gently pinched.
“Why are you crying? A righteous gentleman like me can’t stand seeing a girl cry.”
Su Qing sighed helplessly.
“I’ll give you a chance—a test. If you pass, I’ll grant your request.”
“What test?”
Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions.
Hope rekindled in Ye Xueyi’s eyes as she eagerly asked.
She knew all too well that kindness from a villain like him could never be anything good.
But if she could save her martial aunt, any price would be worth it!
Under the goddess’s expectant gaze, Su Qing leisurely took out an item.
Ye Xueyi stared dumbfounded at the object on the table, then glanced down at her own legs.
Could it be that the reason he rejected her was because she lacked something like this?
No, that was impossible!
Given what she knew about him, how could it be something that simple?
“You shouldn’t underestimate this item. It’s the latest torture tool developed by the White Jade Pavilion’s interrogation division!”
“No chivalrous woman can maintain her composure once she puts this on!”
Su Qing gestured at the treasure on the table and spoke casually.
Ye Xueyi instinctively held her breath, trying to discern its purpose.
This so-called interrogation tool was not some gleaming blade, but rather…
A pair of black silk stockings.
At first glance, they seemed ordinary.
If anything, they appeared to be of far higher quality than what was commonly available on the market.
What kind of effect would such a torture tool have?
She didn’t ask, as the young man had already begun explaining.
“These are called ‘Deepening.’ Many master craftsmen worked tirelessly to perfect them.”
“They may look like ordinary stockings, but once you wear them, you’ll experience their miraculous effects.”
“This item amplifies sensory perception a hundredfold, making you feel the ultimate… sensation.”
“Any woman wearing these will find that both pain and… other feelings are greatly enhanced.”
“Under such intense stimulation, the mind gradually collapses, leading to complete surrender.”
“In the end, even the proudest chivalrous women and celestial maidens become obedient little pets, one after another.”
Su Qing casually introduced the item.
Ye Xueyi shuddered as she listened.
A moment ago, she had been prepared to face anything, but now she hesitated.
This thing… it was far too sinister!
“Don’t worry, I won’t do anything to you. I won’t even touch you.”
“Or… are you afraid to accept the challenge? Is the most dazzling goddess of the Heavenly Dao Sect actually… tsk tsk.”
Su Qing didn’t finish his sentence, but the disdain on his face said it all.
“I accept! But there must be a time limit!”
Ye Xueyi immediately thought of her martial aunt and made her decision.
How could she back down in the face of this arrogant villain?
Throughout history, evil had never triumphed over good, and this time would be no different!
“One hour.”
Su Qing easily set a time limit.
“One hour… fine! If I endure this, you must let my martial aunt go!”
Ye Xueyi firmly stated her condition.
Su Qing, of course, had no objections and nodded indifferently.
The goddess failed to notice that her initial commanding presence had vanished completely.
She had lost control, having already stepped into his trap.
At last, Ye Xueyi picked up the silk stockings from the table.
The moment she touched them, she could feel their delicate, ultra-thin texture.
There was nothing visibly special about them—only that they were of higher quality than ordinary stockings.
With no other options, she had to put them on.
After a moment’s hesitation, the goddess lifted her long, slender legs.
Her delicate, youthful toes curled slightly as she slowly slipped on the sinister stockings.
Her fair skin was gradually enveloped by the sheer black silk, accentuating her flawless curves.
From her toes to her thighs, every inch of her legs was a masterpiece.
Su Qing watched this captivating sight, silently evaluating it in his mind.
The contrast between the black silk and her snowy white skin was striking.
Coupled with her slightly disheveled blue hair, mesmerizing red eyes, and the way she lightly bit her lip…
This scene was nothing short of a breathtaking painting.
If there was one flaw, it was that her legs were a bit too slender.
The stockings clung snugly but lacked the tantalizing compression seen on more voluptuous figures, unlike the imperial consort’s legs.
That gap… would need time to be remedied.
A pity!
Though slightly disappointed, Su Qing was still quite pleased overall.
Under his gaze, Ye Xueyi finally finished putting on the stockings.
Her previously firm expression now carried a trace of nervousness.
It was just a layer of clothing, yet she felt even more self-conscious and awkward than when she wore nothing at all.
It had to be said—the effects of this so-called interrogation tool were immediate.
The moment she put them on, she felt a strange heat spreading through her legs.
Her body temperature seemed to rise along with it.
Was this what it meant to have one’s senses amplified?
Just then, a breeze swept in through the open window, brushing against her stocking-clad legs.
The sensation made her involuntarily shiver.
She instinctively moved her legs but accidentally pressed her foot against the ground.
A sudden, overwhelming sensation made her let out a muffled gasp, her face instantly flushing red.
Ye Xueyi shot a mortified glare at Su Qing, gritting her teeth.
Did he really think such petty tricks could make her submit?
Impossible!
