"How about now?" Long Xun asked as he looked at Li Youbin who was crouching on the floor. He was holding his head and Long Xun could see blood pouring down.

Li Youbin winced holding his head but he didn't give any reply.

This determination of Li Youbin to not say anything about his Master fueled Long Xun's anger. He raised his feet and kicked Li Youbin on his stomach.

Li Youbin screamed in pain but he still didn't say anything.

"Who is your Master? Why is he so hellbent to destroy Li Xiaolu?" Long Xun asked.

"Hahaha....." Li Youbin laughed.

Long Xun glared at Li Youbin and he stepped harshly on Li Youbin's right hand and pressed on it strongly.

"Ahh!!!!!"

Another painful scream rang throughout the room.

Housekeeper Qin clenched his hand when he saw his friend being thrashed and beaten by Long Xun. Hearing Li Youbin's screams, seeing his pain boiled the blood inside of Housekeeper Qin's fury. He bit his tongue to stop himself from saying something that he shouldn't say.

This is the reason why he was trying so hard to get Li Youbin out and away from this dungeon. He didn't want his friend to suffer like this. He couldn't bear to see it.

When he saw Long Xun raising his leg again to kick Li Youbin, Housekeeper Qin couldn't control himself. He rushed towards Long Xun and grabbed his shoulder.

"Long Xun, he will die..." Housekeeper Qin said lightly.

Long Xun paused. He glanced at Li Youbin pathetic condition and then he stopped. Long Xun crouched on the ground and grabbed Li Youbin's neck. "This was a little dose for what you did to my queen." he sneered.

Li Youbin was bleeding a lot. There was blood coming out from his head,?from his nose. His stomach was in pain due to Long Xun's kick and his hand was smashed but still, this didn't stop him from smiling.

"Hahaha.... so this was all for Li Xiaolu... Hahaha." he laughed. "I seriously pity you Long Xun," he said.

"Do you think Li Xiaolu would a person like you?" he asked.

Irked by Li Youbin's words Long Xun punched Li Youbin on his face. Li Youbin winced in pain as he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Looks like I was right. You are not sure whether you can achieve her love. Is it because she is Zhang Zhehan's wife or is it because you think you are not worthy of her?" Li Youbin asked with a mocking smile.

"That's doesn't concern you Li Youbin, " Long Xun snapped.

"Hahaha..... How can it not concern me? After all, I have raised her for so many years." Li Youbin said.

"By the way, there is one thing that I want to ask you Long Xun. You can love your enemy's wife but are you able to love your enemy's daughter?" Li Youbin asked.

What?

Long Xun frowned. He didn't understand a thing about what Li Youbin. He raised his hand and gave another punch on Li Youbin's face. "What do you mean?"

"I meant what I said." Li Youbin said with a smile on his bloody face.

Long Xun was angered by seeing that mocking smile on Li Youbin's face. That smile made him realize his biggest foolishness as well as his today's loss. If only he had griped on Li Youbin's weakness then Li Youbin would be talking like a parrot.

Losing Li Roulan and Yu Rushi was the biggest defeat in his life. He glared at the pathetic man(Li Youbin) and he sneered.

"I am not here to play games with you. I want you to tell me everything?about your Master and I will make sure that you do it." Long Xun informed.

"Be my guest." Li Youbin smirked and was met with another kick by Long Xun. "Ah!!!" he m.o.a.ned in pain as beheld his stomach. He was in pain yet the mocking smile on his face didn't falter.

Li Youbin laughed and he smiled like a mad person. Every part of his body as aching in pain and Li Youbin couldn't take it anymore. He could feel everything around him going blur.

"Go to hell, " Li Youbin muttered weakly as then he fell down on the ground unconscious.

As soon as Li Youbin fell down on the ground, Housekeeper Qin stilled. He looked at Li Youbin's body and he froze. His heart raced as many negative thoughts eroded his mind like a lightning bolt.

"Check whether he is dead or alive, " Long Xun ordered.

Housekeeper Qin snapped out of his thoughts and he ran towards Li Youbin. He crouched on the floor and checked for Li Youbin's pulse. Because his back was facing Long Xun, his worry, his fear, and his anger were all masked away.

"Alive... He's alive, " Housekeeper Qin breathed with relief. He looked at his friend who was beaten black and blue by Long Xun. He gritted his teeth in anger. He wished that he could give that same treatment or even worse to Long Xun but he knew he couldn't. This was not the time yet.

He took a deep breath to calm down his chaotic heartbeats. After masking away all his emotions, Housekeeper Qin got up and he looked at Long Xun.

"Long Xun, thankfully he's alive," he said.

"I don't care if he dies today Uncle Qin. The nerve of him to mock me..." Long Xun gritted.

"But Long Xun, if you want the information about that Master then we have to keep him alive. He is the only person who can tell us about this mysterious Mastermind and that's why he needs to live. Think about Li Xiaolu. See the bigger picture here, Long Xun." Housekeeper Qin advised.

Long Xun pondered. He took a deep breath to calm down and compose his emotions. He glanced at the unconscious body of Li Youbin and he scoffed, "Uncle Qin, you are right. This man needs to live."

Housekeeper Qin nodded.

"But I'll make sure that his life is worse than his death." Long Xun stated and he left the room.
