Lily's face was incredibly pale, and her surroundings were cold; she might not be able to last through the night.
'Am 1 really going to die in this dungeon tonight?'
Lily bit her lip as she hugged her knees with both arms. She squatted and felt much warmer. However, her face was still full of despair. 'Even if I could last the night, what will happen next? Tomorrow I'll need to go through Thousand Slices Million Cuts—I still can't escape death.’
Lily felt completely disappointed and given up as she thought about that.
Chirp!
Suddenly, she heard footsteps from outside the dungeon. They sounded light! A few seconds later, after some light noises, the dungeon door was cracked open. Then, a slim body flashed in.
Who was that?
'Is Sister Lanvin coming to torture me again?'
Lily's heart trembled; she thought that was Lanvin. However, after a closer look, she felt delighted. "Sister Cece?"
Against the dark rays of the night, she could see the lady in front of her had exquisite features, and her body figure was alluring. She looked gentle and elegant.
That lady was Cece, Lily’s Fifth Senior Sister. Other than the Sect Master, Cece was the one who treated Lily kindly in the sect. Everyone despised Lily and hated her ugly face, but Cece did not mind it at all. Lily was surprised and delighted to see Cece. Never in her wild dream did she expect that Cece would visit her discreetly in the dungeon at night.
"Fifth Senior Sister, why are you here?" Lily asked.
"We can talk later." Cece took a cautious look outside. She walked over quickly and removed the chains on Lily’s body. Her beautiful face was full of pity as she said softly, "Lilybud, how are you?"
Even though Lily's face was ugly, Cece knew that she was a kind-hearted woman. So, amongst the disciples in the entire Spiritual Invisible Sect, Cece treated Lily as her friend and a good sister.
Cece's heart ached when she saw how Lily was beaten that morning.
