The moment Yu Xiaogang heard that Yu Luomian was going to abolish his soul power, his head instantly felt like it exploded, a complete blank.
After a moment, he snapped back to reality and cried out in panic, "Second Uncle, Second Uncle, I don't want my soul power to be abolished!"
"I know I was wrong. You can punish me however you want, but please don't abolish my soul power!"
Since childhood, Yu Xiaogang had been ridiculed because his innate soul power was only half a level, which is why he particularly craved strength. Even if he didn't have the strength himself, he wanted to train a disciple to prove himself.
It could be said that his current level twenty-nine soul power was the most indispensable thing to him, apart from his direct disciple Tang San.
However, no matter how he begged for help, Yu Luomian just watched with cold eyes.
If not for his elder brother Yu Yuanzhen's death, and Yu Xiaogang being his own nephew, he would have already been skinned and had his tendons pulled out by Yu Luomian at this moment.
At this time, two disciples from the Law Enforcement Hall held Yu Xiaogang's shoulders one on each side, while another disciple from the Law Enforcement Hall instantly activated his martial soul. Lightning surrounded his body, and four soul rings spiraled up from his feet.
The next second, the young man from the Law Enforcement Hall punched Yu Xiaogang directly in the dantian area without holding back.
"Ah ah ah!" Yu Xiaogang let out a piercing scream, a mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth, and his expression instantly withered.
But this was not over yet. The disciples from the Law Enforcement Hall holding his hands straightened his arms, and then another disciple from the Law Enforcement Hall, with his martial soul activated, walked up and ruthlessly chopped down with a palm.
With a 'crack', his bones instantly broke.
Then came the other hand, and his legs. No matter how tragic Yu Xiaogang's screams were, no one stood up to say a word for him. Liu Erlong couldn't bear to watch.
She wanted to leave, but was sternly refused by Yu Luomian, who insisted she witness Yu Xiaogang receiving all the punishments.
After Yu Xiaogang's limbs were abolished, the disciples from the Law Enforcement Hall even brought out a wooden stake, violently tore open the upper part of Yu Xiaogang's clothes, and tied his limp body to the stake.
Afterward, two disciples from the Law Enforcement Hall stood on either side, each holding an incredibly thick purple-blue long whip.
And beside the two Law Enforcement disciples, stood another person.
Six soul rings circled around this person's body, and a pink flower bloomed in his hand.
He was a healing-type Soul Emperor affiliated with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family. The reason he stood out was simple: to prevent Yu Xiaogang from dying due to being unable to withstand the punishment.
Snap!
The blue-purple whip landed on Yu Xiaogang's body like a bolt of lightning. His soul power was abolished, but his body was still that of a level twenty-nine Grand Soul Master, far exceeding ordinary people.
The whip, wrapped in faint lightning, didn't whip him to death, but it did whip his skin open, exposing the flesh. The smell of cooked meat even spread through the air.
How could Yu Xiaogang have ever endured such punishment? He let out an extremely tragic scream.
He wasn't afraid of death, but he was afraid of pain!
After just three whips, he could no longer bear it and began to plead incoherently.
"Second Uncle, Second Uncle, I was wrong!"
"Please spare me. If you keep hitting me like this, I'll be beaten to death!"
"Ah!"
Before he finished speaking, another whip mercilessly fell.
Seeing Yu Luomian's cold expression, he looked towards Liu Erlong, tears, snot, and blood mixed together.
"It hurts, it hurts so much!"
"Liu Erlong, Liu Erlong, I'm about to be beaten to death. Please ask Second Uncle to show mercy, I beg you!"
The intense pain almost caused Yu Xiaogang to completely faint.
But the blue-purple whip, made of who knows what, each time it landed on Yu Xiaogang's body, besides the physical pain, it also gave him a feeling that struck his soul directly.
It was precisely this soul-piercing pain that prevented Yu Xiaogang from even being able to faint. He could only remain conscious and endure the intense pain.
Each time his body reached its limit, the healing-type Soul Emperor would intervene to keep him alive, leaving him unable to live or die.
Listening to Yu Xiaogang's desperate pleas for help and seeing his piteous expression, Liu Erlong also sighed helplessly.
"You didn't listen when I advised you back then, otherwise how could you have fallen to this state today?"
She was a Soul Sage, what could she do?
If she really tried to stop it, perhaps Yu Luomian would only tell the Law Enforcement Hall disciples to be even more ruthless.
After a long time, eighty-one whips were finally finished. The healing-type Soul Emperor had intervened nine times to prevent Yu Xiaogang from being beaten to death.
But even after saving him, his condition was very grim. He looked like a pile of mud.
Yu Xiaogang was tied to the wooden stake, his head hanging weakly, his eyelids drooping listlessly, looking as if he could completely faint at any moment, and his whole body was covered in blood.
And in his downcast eyes, the gaze through his eyelids was filled with endless resentment.
There was resentment towards Qi Lin, towards Yu Luomian, towards other clan members, and even towards Liu Erlong.
He resented her for not saving him!
Although Yu Luomian didn't intend to kill him, the torture was infinitely more painful than being killed with a single blow.
He had remembered all the suffering he endured today.
After enduring endless torment, Yu Xiaogang's heart had clearly become more twisted.
His already ordinary face looked even uglier due to the inner distortion, as if his appearance reflected his heart. Even Liu Erlong, who still had a sense of friendship towards him, couldn't help but frown and feel a sense of strangeness.
And Yu Luomian continued, "Since the punishment is complete, take Yu Xiaogang away. He is not to step out of his room for thirty years."
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang was instantly struck as if by lightning.
"Second Uncle, my father just died, you can't do this to me!"
Yu Xiaogang forced himself to raise his spirits and shouted loudly.
If he couldn't leave the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family, how could he teach Tang San, how could he witness him becoming the strongest person on the Douluo Continent?
No, he couldn't be trapped in the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family!
However, how could Yu Luomian pay attention to Yu Xiaogang? He just snorted coldly and said, "You still have the nerve to mention your father. Don't you know why he died?"
Yu Xiaogang immediately fell silent upon hearing this, until he was dragged away from the mourning hall by two disciples from the Law Enforcement Hall. However, the resentment in his eyes had almost materialized.
Meanwhile, Qi Lin, far away at Heaven Dou Academy, didn't know what Yu Xiaogang had gone through.
However, he could roughly guess that Yu Xiaogang wouldn't have a good outcome; even if he didn't die, he would lose a layer of skin.
In the past few days, many forces had investigated him, speculating that the mysterious "expert" who killed Yu Yuanzhen was related to him, so they conducted another detailed investigation into his identity in secret.
People successively inquired about him from the Royal Fight Team members, but they were reported to him by the Royal Fight Team members as soon as they inquired.
And Ning Fengzhi and Qian Renxue even found Qi Lin himself one after another.
Of course, they didn't seek Qi Lin to inquire about information, but simply wanted to get closer to him.
After all, standing behind Qi Lin was a peak expert of the current era, suspected to be a Limit Douluo.
