Realm of the Night God

This room was originally the bedroom of the middle-aged chubby man and his wife. However, now it has been forcibly transformed into a makeshift operating room.

The once large bed has been turned into a crude version of an operating table, stained with blood and emitting a foul odor—disgusting and terrifying.

Scattered on the bed are various medical supplies and a sharp, blood-stained surgical knife, adding a few more degrees of horror to this already terrifying makeshift operating table.

With a sinister smile on his face, the middle-aged chubby man places the unconscious Zhong Siyu on this makeshift operating table.

The table has handcuffs and ankle restraints, and once Zhong Siyu is placed on it, she is firmly secured by these blood-stained handcuffs and restraints.

With these restraints, not to mention the heavily injured Zhong Siyu, even a fierce tiger wouldn't be able to break free.

"Darling daughter, you've lost too much blood. Daddy will treat you immediately. I won't let you die. I want you to live well."

With a wicked smile, the middle-aged chubby man begins to busily work on the operating table.

Unaware of how long she has been unconscious, when Zhong Siyu wakes up, the intense pain all over her body continuously stimulates her nerves. Before she can comprehend what's happening, the scene before her eyes frightens her to tears.

In her line of sight, the middle-aged chubby man is swinging a cleaver, mercilessly chopping a corpse. Despite the fact that the corpse has been dismembered and covered in blood and flesh, she immediately recognizes it as her housekeeper grandpa.

Although she tries to control herself, her sobbing is heard by the middle-aged chubby man. He turns around, his face covered in blood, and grins at her.

Zhong Siyu, who has just awakened, faints in terror.

The days that follow are like hellish torment for Zhong Siyu.

Meanwhile, the middle-aged chubby man acts as if nothing is wrong, living his life as usual.

Though he may be insane, he doesn't display overt signs of madness in front of others. Those who have regular contact with him may notice some changes in his personality, but no one would suspect him of being mentally unstable. They perceive him as relatively normal.

To avoid arousing suspicion, he doesn't even dismiss the servants in the mansion. Not a single one.

As for his missing wife, daughter, and butler, he provides a convincing explanation: his daughter is studying at a prestigious school in another city, and his wife and steward have gone to take care of her.

This explanation is not doubted by anyone. After all, wealthy individuals commonly send their children to study in big cities. Moreover, he quietly handled the situation with money, further dispelling any suspicions.

During the day, he continues his business as usual, though he no longer travels extensively as before. This might result in some loss of business, but he no longer cares.

At night, he begins to torment Zhong Siyu and the others. Only when he tires of the torment and feels satisfied does he go to sleep, sharing the same room with Zhong Siyu and the others.

His favorite target for torment is his once-beloved daughter, Zhong Siyu!

Periodically, the middle-aged chubby man violently amputates a part of Zhong Siyu's body. He haphazardly stitches it back on, ensuring that Zhong Siyu remains conscious throughout the ordeal.

Because only in this way can Zhong Siyu fully experience what true pain and the desire for death mean!

Initially, Zhong Siyu was terrified and desperate. However, gradually, she became numb. Eventually, her numbness transformed into resentment.

Whenever the middle-aged chubby man subjected her to cruel torment, he would taunt Zhong Siyu verbally, aiming to provoke fear and despair in her. His goal was clear: to make Zhong Siyu more frightened and more desperate.

It's precisely because of this prolonged sadistic torment that Zhong Siyu learns the ins and outs of the situation. She discovers her mother's unfaithfulness, learns that the man claiming to be her father has gone insane.

However, she can't fathom the connection between all of this and herself, and why she, in the end, becomes the one suffering the most painful torment!

The more she fails to understand, the heavier the resentment in her heart grows. She resents her mother, just as much as she resents the man who was once her father. Ultimately, she starts to loathe the entire world!

The more she loathes, the more excited the middle-aged chubby man becomes. His methods of tormenting her become increasingly diverse, and her hatred intensifies exponentially.

Finally, one day, she can't take it anymore and leaves this world, carrying boundless resentment with her.

Her mother married the middle-aged chubby man at the age of sixteen, and that year, Zhong Siyu was also sixteen, with the added coincidence of it being her sixteenth birthday.

Every year on her birthday, the middle-aged chubby man would prepare a gift for her.

Before he went insane, the gifts prepared by the middle-aged chubby man were things she liked.

After going insane, she was fixed on the makeshift operating table for years. Surprisingly, the middle-aged chubby man continued to prepare birthday gifts for her. However, these birthday gifts were not things she liked; instead, they were torment multiplied several times over.

On her sixteenth birthday, the middle-aged chubby man prepared a "grand gift" for her—an even more brutal form of torment than usual!

It was this grand gift that ultimately ended Zhong Siyu's life.

Zhong Siyu's death dealt a significant blow to the middle-aged chubby man. Like a child who had spoiled his beloved toy, he cried and threw a tantrum in the room, frightening Zhong Siyu's mother and the other man.

In these six years, the two of them endured considerable torment. However, compared to Zhong Siyu, their suffering was negligible. It was precisely because of this that they managed to survive.

With Zhong Siyu dead, the middle-aged chubby man would undoubtedly vent his anger on the two of them. Understanding this, they were understandably frightened.

The middle-aged chubby man did not disappoint them. On the day of Zhong Siyu's death, they experienced torment much more intense than usual.

However, having Zhong Siyu as a cautionary tale, the middle-aged chubby man was extremely careful when tormenting them. He feared that a momentary lapse of attention might lead to their deaths as well, leaving him with no one to play with.

As for the deceased Zhong Siyu, her body was sewn back together and hung on hooks like a piece of dried meat. The middle-aged chubby man intended to turn Zhong Siyu's corpse into a unique specimen for his future enjoyment.

To ordinary people, the stitched-up skin and limbs would be indescribably horrifying, but to the middle-aged chubby man, it was a rare work of art.

However, this piece of art in his eyes would cost him his life seven days later, leading to a demise where his soul scattered and fled.

Zhong Siyu's death only left the middle-aged chubby man momentarily saddened. Like a child who quickly forgets a broken toy, he moved on from Zhong Siyu once he no longer felt sorrow.

Seven days later, a strong Yin Qi and overwhelming resentment enveloped the mansion. Ordinary people couldn't sense this intense Yin Qi and resentment, but some non-ordinary individuals could!

Especially those from the Yin Division, who were most sensitive to such things!

Numerous skilled individuals rushed to the mansion, and among them was Deng Feng, the Burial Master of Lecheng.

When they arrived at the mansion, not a single living soul remained. The servants, Zhong Siyu's mother, the other man, and the perverse middle-aged chubby man—all had died a gruesome death without exception.

The entire mansion was left with a blood-red malevolent spirit brimming with resentment and a single ordinary undead.

Others, besides dying, had their souls forcefully extracted and devoured!

The blood-red malevolent spirit was none other than Zhong Siyu, now a malevolent spirit!

The ordinary undead was the former butler.

Although he was an undead, he was the sole survivor of the mansion. In contrast to the others whose souls were entirely consumed, he was indeed the luckiest.

After dying at the hands of the middle-aged chubby man, the butler's soul condensed into a spirit and remained in the mansion.

He stayed, hoping to rescue Zhong Siyu and spare her from the torment inflicted by the middle-aged chubby man. Unfortunately, when he died suddenly, there was not much resentment, so he only condensed into an ordinary undead.

Ordinary undead had quite limited abilities, with nothing more than the ability to frighten people. He had tried to scare the insane middle-aged chubby man, but with the man's already thickened nerves, scaring him proved to be quite challenging. On the contrary, the mansion's servants were scared away.

Instead of frightening the middle-aged chubby man, the butler was terrified by the man's actions. This fear persisted until Zhong Siyu was tortured to death, and the butler failed to save her.

Zhong Siyu, now a malevolent spirit full of hatred for everything in the world, including her parents, spared the butler from her list of hatred. This led to the butler being the only survivor of the mansion, not because Zhong Siyu failed to notice his presence, but because she deliberately refrained from harming him.

However, Zhong Siyu's decision not to harm the butler didn't mean that others wouldn't target him. Moreover, the butler was quite unfortunate and happened to cross paths with Burial Master Deng Feng.

As expected, he was directly collected into the soul-gathering bead by Deng Feng, without any surprises.
