Chapter 235: Chapter 235: The Truth Revealed
Those around heard Xiahou Que’s words and simultaneously saw Xiahou Que’s broken hands, and they couldn’t help but exclaim.
To break his own hands just for something said by the woman he loves, such feelings are absolutely pure and incredibly rare.
This is true love!
The numerous classmates who had sided with Wang Yan earlier immediately changed their minds. Their gazes toward Xiahou Que turned into approval and admiration. Then everyone looked at Wang Yan, waiting for his answer.
If Wang Yan can’t break his own hands like Xiahou Que, how could he have the qualification to protect Beiming Xue?
At this moment, some classmates started shouting loudly, “Wang Yan, break your hands!”
“Wang Yan, prove yourself!”
“Be a man and break your hands; they can grow back anyway.”
…
Hearing the increasingly intense shouting around her, Beiming Xue was immediately frightened, turning pale. She hurriedly cried out, “Brother Wang Yan can’t break his hands. Xiahou Que’s hands weren’t broken by himself.”
But Beiming Xue’s voice was already drowned in the loud shouting around them and couldn’t be heard.
Xiahou Que stared triumphantly at Wang Yan, the provoking light in his eyes wantonly shining through.
If Wang Yan doesn’t break his hands, then he won’t be able to hold his head up in school anymore, much less stay with Beiming Xue.
If Wang Yan does break his hands, it would be like Xiahou Que gets his revenge without any effort, for having his hands broken.
Wang Yan looked at Xiahou Que before him, his expression remained calm, but deep in his eyes, a murderous intent slowly emerged.
Even though the murderous intent was deep in Wang Yan’s eyes, Xiahou Que clearly felt it. Although he felt fear in his heart, banking on the fact that there were countless classmates around, Xiahou Que wasn’t worried that Wang Yan would make a move.
At this moment, Wang Yan slowly raised his hand, making a gesture for quietness.
The surrounding classmates immediately quieted down, all looking at Wang Yan.
Wang Yan spoke loudly, “What Xiahou Que can do, I can definitely do too.”
Upon hearing Wang Yan’s words, those around applauded. This indeed was a true man.
However, Beiming Xue, Ouyang Feiting, and Ma Jun were all shocked, hurriedly trying to dissuade Wang Yan.
But Wang Yan waved his hand, immediately stopping the three of them. He turned his head and said to them, “How could I be scared by Xiahou Que? You don’t need to persuade me.”
Seeing Wang Yan’s determination, Ma Jun and Ouyang Feiting stomped anxiously, while Beiming Xue immediately burst into tears, heartbroken.
Xiahou Que, however, was a bit surprised. He hadn’t expected Wang Yan to actually want to break his own hands. But then he sneered in his heart, “Kid, you’re too naive. I told you to break your hands, and you’re actually going to do it. I should have told you to break your neck instead.”
At this time, Wang Yan raised his hands and said to the surrounding students, “It’s just breaking hands, nothing more. Xiahou Que can do it, so why would I be afraid? Xiahou Que, tell me how you did it, and I’ll copy every move exactly.”
Xiahou Que, feeling quite proud, heard Wang Yan’s question, and without thinking, directly replied, “Breaking your own hands, such a simple thing, first break the right hand, then the left hand.”
With that said, Xiahou Que lifted his bandaged hands, demonstrating in the air.
Wang Yan nodded, “So you’re saying, first use your right hand to break the left, then use the left to break the right, right?”
Xiahou Que impatiently urged, “Yes, yes, just break them already.”
Wang Yan smiled lightly and asked, “But I’m curious, after your left hand is broken, how does it then break the right one?”
Xiahou Que said, “It’s just a twist like this…”
But just after finishing his sentence, Xiahou Que suddenly froze.
Indeed, with the left hand broken, how could there be strength left to break the other hand?
Upon hearing this, the surrounding classmates seemed to understand and all thought of the same issue. How could one possibly break both of their own hands?
Suddenly, there was an uproar among the students, all angry that they had been deceived by Xiahou Que earlier.
Wang Yan immediately stepped half a step toward Xiahou Que, coldly saying, “Now do you remember how your wrist was broken yesterday?”
Xiahou Que was startled, hurriedly stepping back, stammering nervously, “I-it was broken by myself.”
Wang Yan sternly said, “It seems you’ve really forgotten. Let me help you remember. Last night, you intended to harm Xue’er and Feiting, but I caught you. At that time, I grabbed both of your wrists.”
He raised his hand as he spoke, grabbing Xiahou Que’s bandaged wrists.
Xiahou Que quickly retreated, but as his hand was held by Wang Yan, retreating like this caused immediate excruciating pain at the fracture.
Xiahou Que quickly shouted, “Let go, let go now!”
Wang Yan coldly said, “Haven’t you recalled yet? After I grabbed you, you resisted, resulting in me pressing down like so…”
As he spoke, Wang Yan’s hands once again bent Xiahou Que’s wrists downward.
Xiahou Que’s wrists were already broken, and being bent by Wang Yan again, the bones misaligned, and his hands were twisted further out of place.
Sweat immediately rolled down Xiahou Que’s forehead from the pain, and he shouted quickly, “Let go, let go now!”
But Wang Yan’s hands remained firmly in their grasp, continuously asking, “Xiahou Que, was what I said just now true?”
Upon hearing this, the surrounding classmates could guess the general meaning, but since Xiahou Que hadn’t answered, they all wanted to know Xiahou Que’s response.
Therefore, everyone shouted, “Is it true?”
“Quickly tell us, what happened exactly?”
Xiahou Que originally didn’t want to speak, but his wrists were gripped by Wang Yan, and he felt a surge of the Power of Demon Patterns flowing from Wang Yan’s hands to his wrists.
His wrists were originally just broken; however, under the impact of the Power of Demon Patterns, the fracture began to shatter into pieces of Shattered Bone, causing unbearable pain.
Moreover, if the impact continued, it wouldn’t be long before both of his arms likely turned into Shattered Bone.
At once, Xiahou Que shouted anxiously, “That’s right, that’s right, you were correct.”
Wang Yan didn’t release his grip, coldly saying, “I’m afraid I might have said it wrong, so repeat it yourself.”
The excruciating pain in his wrists made Xiahou Que unable to bear it anymore, and even if Wang Yan asked him to curse Xiahou Xin, Xiahou Que would comply, let alone recount the truth of last night.
Quickly, Xiahou Que recounted in detail the events of the previous night.
Hearing Wang Yan’s words as the truth, that Xiahou Que intended to assault Beiming Xue and Ouyang Feiting, all the surrounding classmates were filled with righteous indignation and began to loudly curse.
Xiahou Que, at this moment, didn’t pay attention to any of this. He only hoped to escape Wang Yan’s grasp as soon as possible.
After saying these words, Xiahou Que immediately begged, “Please, let me go.”
Wang Yan smiled faintly, the murderous intent slowly emerging in his eyes, and said calmly, “Fine, I’ll let you go now.”
Saying this, Wang Yan raised his hand, throwing Xiahou Que backward, making him retreat several steps before stopping.
As Xiahou Que found himself stopping, he breathed a sigh of relief, just about to turn and escape.
But just as Xiahou Que turned, he suddenly felt a foreign presence of the Power of Demon Patterns within his body.
This Power of Demon Patterns rushed violent throughout Xiahou Que’s insides, instantly twisting his organs into a chaotic mess, as if they were about to explode.
