When beauty meets beasts

594 What A Cliché Plot!

When Huanhuan woke up, she found herself lying in a cage.

She tried to get up, but found that her hands and feet were tied. She couldn’t move at all.

Then, with the weak light emitted by the torch, Huanhuan realized that there were several cages beside her. Each cage contained an elven girl.

They were all elves who had disappeared recently.

Huanhuan looked around and quickly found Doris inside. She was sallow from hunger and bruised. She lay on the ground, dying.

A beautiful woman in a wheelchair emerged from the depths of the darkness.

She was wearing a long red dress, and her long black hair draped to her waist. Her face was pale, and her lips were as red as blood. Sharp ears emerged from her hair, and the nails on her hands were long and sharp. They were like the claws of a ferocious beast, flickering with a cold light.

“You’re finally awake.”

Huanhuan couldn’t sit up. She could only barely raise her head and stare at her face. “Who are you? Why did you kidnap us?”

She thought she wouldn’t answer her question, but she said, “My name is Cynthia. I’m Catherine’s sister.”

Huanhuan had never heard of the elven queen having a sister.

Cynthia controlled the wheelchair to the iron cage and looked down at her as she explained slowly.

“Cynthia and I are twins. Unfortunately, I was unlucky and my appearance was destroyed by an accident when I was very young. Catherine felt that my existence was a stain, so she locked me up and refused to let me see outsiders. Therefore, not many people in the elven race know of my existence.”

Huanhuan was not interested in the happenings of the elven royal family. She said, “I don’t care what grudge you have against the elven queen. It has nothing to do with me.”

“It has nothing to do with you, but it has to do with the black dragon you brought with you.”

Huanhuan was stunned. “You mean Little Black? You know each other?”

“We don’t know each other, but I need him to do something for me. He seems to care a lot about you. Now that I have you, I’m guessing he’ll be willing to help me.”

It turned out that this woman was using her to threaten Little Black!

Huanhuan was very angry. “You’re despicable!”

Cynthia laughed. “Thank you for the compliment.”

Huanhuan asked about Little Black’s whereabouts.

“Don’t worry, he’s fine now. I’ll get Cyril to negotiate with him. It’ll probably be a while before we have an answer.” Cynthia tapped her fingertips on the arm of the wheelchair and smiled sinisterly. “I’m bored now. Do you want to hear me tell a story?”

Although it was a question, she had no intention of hearing an answer.

Cynthia started talking to herself, her dark eyes empty.

“A long time ago, there was a beautiful elven princess. Everyone who saw her was stunned by her appearance. She was nicknamed the Light of Dawn.”

“She was as beautiful as the first rays of sunlight on the dawn continent.

“Not only did the elven princess have parents and family who doted on her, but she also had a peerlessly beautiful appearance. She lived a very happy life. At that time, she didn’t know that the human heart wasn’t as innocent as she imagined. In some people’s eyes, her appearance was a thorn in their flesh.

“One day, the elven princess and her sister went out to play. They were attacked by demons, and the sisters got separated.

“At the critical moment, the elven princess was saved by a tall, handsome man. The princess was impressed by the man’s gentleness, strength, and appearance. They naturally fell in love.”

At this point in the story, Cynthia suddenly grinned like a doll that was about to shatter.

“The elven princess returned to Elven God Mountain with her lover. She thought that when she returned, she would be welcomed and blessed by her family and friends. Unexpectedly, everyone suspected that she had been tainted by demons. Otherwise, how could those murderous demons let her go?

“The elven princess couldn’t defend herself. Later, her sister suddenly looked for the elven princess. She gave the elven princess a bottle of medicine. As long as an elf drank it, they would be fine. But if an elf contaminated by a demon drank it, they would die from poisoning.

“The innocent elven princess believed her sister. She drank the bottle of medicine to prove her innocence. In the end…” Cynthia stopped deliberately to keep Huanhuan in suspense. “Guess what happened?”

Huanhuan wanted to stall for time, but with Cynthia’s story, Huanhuan’s attention was gradually caught. She subconsciously asked, “What happened?”

“In the end, flames suddenly ignited on the elven princess’s body. Her hair, clothes, and appearance… were all burned. She became an ugly monster. An ugly monster that made one want to vomit just looking at her!”

Cynthia laughed like a crazy person.

Perhaps it was because she was laughing so hard, but the skin on her face began to crack and fall off, becoming mottled and terrifying.

Huanhuan looked at her with wide eyes. “Your face…”

Cynthia touched her face and suddenly stopped laughing. “Tsk, this face is going to rot again.”

She maneuvered the wheelchair closer to the cage, reached out, grabbed Doris, who was lying on the ground, and thrust her long nails into her chest.

Doris screamed in pain.

Cynthia ignored her struggles and dug out her heart. Then, she took a small bottle of medicine from her shirt pocket. Cynthia sprinkled the powder on the bloody heart, then opened her mouth and swallowed it.

Huanhuan’s stomach churned with disgust.

Doris, who had lost her heart, collapsed. Blood spread under her. Her eyes were wide with fear. She died with her eyes open.

After Cynthia ate the heart, the skin on her face visibly recovered its smoothness.

She wiped the blood from her mouth and hands as she continued the story she hadn’t finished.

“The elves are such a proud race. How could they allow themselves to have an ugly princess? The elven princess was imprisoned by her sister. The elven princess tried her best to escape. She begged her lover to take her away, but she saw her lover with her sister.”

Huanhuan: “…”

What a melodramatic plot!

“The elven princess lost her beauty. At the same time, she lost her identity, family, and lover. She became nothing. In the end, she waited for death in despair…”

Cynthia’s smile suddenly disappeared and became very ferocious.

“But I won’t die! The more they want to kill me, the longer I have to live!

“I want revenge on Catherine and on those who hurt me!”

“I want them all to die without a burial place!”

Huanhuan felt wronged. “I sympathize with you, but this has nothing to do with me. Every grievance has its perpetrator. Don’t come looking for me.”
