Inside the room, Liu Yang tossed Taozi onto the bed.
It had to be said, this woman from the Little Sun Empire truly was a looker.
She was the gentle, cute type, with a touch of soft baby fat on her fair, blushing cheeks that made anyone want to reach out and pinch them.
Standing under 1.6 meters tall, she looked practically like a child in front of the 1.85-meter Liu Yang.
He could easily scoop her up with one arm.
She was entirely different from the tall, curvaceous women back at his base.
Taozi fit the petite, loli archetype.
Thrown onto the bed, a streak of panic finally broke through her composure.
She wanted to resist, but her body refused to obey. Unable to move even a single finger, she could only stare up at Liu Yang and speak.
"Liu Yang, you are the number one powerhouse on the Heaven Ranking! I believe you will honor the spirit of Bushido! I am a warrior-do not humiliate me. I beg you, grant me a dignified death! Give me a quick end!"
Liu Yang sneered at her words.
"Dignity? Before the apocalypse even started, I learned a simple truth: only the strong are qualified to talk about dignity. Dignity isn't begged for-it's taken!"
"Slap!"
Liu Yang delivered a crisp slap across her face.
A red mark instantly bloomed on her fair, tender cheek.
"Mmmph♡!" Taozi let out a muffled groan, gritting her teeth against the sharp pain. She forced herself not to scream.
She knew four of her squad members were still right outside the door. If she screamed, they would hear everything. As their captain, how could she bear such disgrace?
No, she absolutely could not scream!
Yet despite her restraint, that single muffled groan reached Nakata's ears outside, driving him completely insane.
He began to howl in agony. "Ahhh! Kill me! Just kill me!!!"
His face twisted in excruciating torment. He desperately wanted to end his own life, yet he couldn't even manage that much.
Inside the room.
Watching Taozi grit her teeth and endure, Liu Yang said, "As expected of an Earth Ranking expert, you've got some endurance! But don't worry, this is only the beginning. I promised I'd make your simp listen to your screams, and I always keep my word."
Saying that, Liu Yang stepped forward.
He walked straight to Taozi and pinned her down.
Truth be told, this Little Sun woman really was exceptional.
She was a rare, top-tier beauty, one in a million.
Not only were her facial features exquisitely carved, but her proportions were flawless.
Though short, she possessed a uniquely delicate, petite charm.
Right now, stunned by Liu Yang's overwhelming power and flushed with embarrassment, her face burned bright red.
Although an Earth Ranking powerhouse, she was ultimately just an eighteen-year-old girl.
She had never even had a boyfriend before.
Let alone any intimate contact with a man.
Now, completely paralyzed, she had been thrown onto a bed by Liu Yang.
One could only imagine the terrifying ordeal awaiting her.
The thought filled her not only with fear, but also a strange, humiliating embarrassment.
Before invading the Divine Dragon Empire, she had prepared herself for intense battles against its supreme experts.
She had even mentally accepted the possibility of dying on foreign soil.
What she never expected was that this man-Liu Yang, the undisputed number one on the Heaven Ranking-would act so utterly shameless.
Refusing to give her a quick death was one thing, but he actually intended to degrade her!
This behavior lacked any grace of a true powerhouse.
It was completely devoid of the warrior spirit.
In deep despair, she whimpered, "You... don't do this! Give me a quick death! Stop humiliating me! What do you gain from this?
"As a supreme expert, you lack any real dignity! True powerhouses disdain mocking their enemies, and they certainly wouldn't lower themselves to despicable acts!
"They focus solely on pursuing power! A person like you will never become a true powerhouse!"
Liu Yang let out a cold laugh at her speech, followed by another sharp slap.
Unable to hold it in, Taozi let out a sharp cry of pain.
Outside, the sound struck Nakata like a physical blow, making his wails even more gut-wrenching.
Liu Yang sneered. "Heh, you've never stood at the peak, so how would you know how a true powerhouse thinks? Tell me, is it possible-just possible-that the more I indulge, the stronger I actually get?"
"Slap!" Liu Yang struck her cheek once more.
Outside the door, Nakata's agonizing screams continued. "Ahhh! Inoue! Kill me! Kill me quick! I can't listen to this! I'm going insane!"
His goddess was being tormented just beyond the door.
And he was forced to lie outside, listening to every sound.
Nakata felt as though his soul were being ripped apart.
Inoue snapped impatiently, "Shut the hell up! You're driving me crazy! If I could move a single finger, I would've killed you already!"
"Wahhh! That's Captain Taozi! Captain Taozi is being tortured! Wahhh!" The scruffy, bearded Nakata broke down into full-blown tears.
Seeing Nakata's pathetic display, Inoue cursed fiercely.
"What the fuck are you crying for, you useless simp?! Damn it, back there for a fucking woman, you actually tried to betray the empire and blabbed about all our squads!
"You're a traitor to the Little Sun Empire! A disgrace to our nation! You traitorous trash, how dare you fucking cry!"
"Wahhh!"
The bearded Nakata simply wept uncontrollably.
Inside the room.
Taozi gritted her teeth, enduring the pain.
Liu Yang decided he had played around enough.
Seeing his shift in posture, a wave of terror washed over Taozi's eyes, and she blurted out in panic:
"You... what are you trying to do?! I'm telling you, I won't yield! As an ability user of the Little Sun Empire, I will never submit to anyone from the Divine Dragon Empire! No matter how you try to humiliate me, I won't beg for mercy!"
Liu Yang chuckled. "Oh? You won't yield? Well, saying that just makes me more interested. You've really sparked my competitive streak.
"How about a bet? If you can actually hold out and refrain from begging, I might actually let all of you go."
With that, Liu Yang casually flexed, displaying his massive, explosive muscle tone.
Looking at his perfect physique-the thick biceps, the chiseled, sculpture-like abs, and the sheer sense of physical dominance-Taozi was thoroughly shaken.
A look of pure panic swept across her face.
She stammered at Liu Yang, "You... don't come any closer!"
