DESPICABLE

"My child, where did that man go?" Elder Dam asked softly, as though he was afraid to startle the little girl if he raised his voice slightly.

"Xiao Jun has been chasing after him." Xiao Tianyao replied in Senja stead while approaching them. He tried to buy time for whatever his brother wanted to do with his Master.

Wang Yu, who had been silent all this time walked toward Senja and Elder Dam and subtly separated their tight arms.

His daughter cried abruptly stopped when Wang Yu hugged her as her back turned rigid.

"My daughter." Wang Yu sighed in relief when he wrapped his arms around Senja's skinny figure. However, his tone was like another nightmare for Senja. Her body shivered involuntarily. "Tell us, where the bad guy had gone?"

Senja bit her shaking lips.

Xiao Tianyao thought the girl wouldn't say anything, thus he was about to talk when Senja raised her hand and pointed to the direction of the crowded night market.

"He went that way?" Elder Dam asked Senja, anger once again rose in his eyes and when Senja nodded without preamble, he darted toward that direction.

Xiao Tianyao's eyebrows wrinkled. Because, the direction that was pointed by Senja was the opposite direction where Ye Xiu and Xiao Jun had headed, it puzzled him.

Why she lied? She helped the person who kidnapped her?

"Tianyao!" Elder Dam's called distract his line of thought. Xiao Tianyao gave a scrutinized gaze to the little girl before he followed Elder Dam. In spite he knew the direction was wrong, he kept his mouth shut.

He would give the wrong direction as well when he was about to answer him before. Xiao Tianyao has a reason for that. But, what was Senja's reason?

The moment Elder Dam and Xiao Tianyao were out of sight, Wang Yu released his hugged on Senja's body and stood up with cold expression. He looked down at Senja, who lower her head in fear.

She swallowed hard as she felt like Wang Yu's gaze was digging her skull.

Of course he wouldn't be so stupid enough to kill his daughter right now, but he has to silent her, so she couldn't tattle what had happened to Elder Dam.

Wang Yu raised his right foot and kicked the girl right in her chest that made Senja bounced far enough before crashed the wall. Before she could grasp for air to fill her aching lung, Wang Yu's fingers clawed her around the neck and raised her until she was dangling in the air.

Wang Yu looked at his daughter with menacing eyes, there was no kindness for his own daughter. Like Senja was nothing for him.

Senja's mouth gapped open for air that she couldn't take, due to the tight gripped around her neck that clogged her airway. Aching on her chest made it worse.

In an urge to having an air to fill her lung, she tried to pry open her father's fingers by stabbing her nail on the surface of Wang Yu skin with no avail. When she felt like her soul was sucked out from her body, Wang Yu threw her aside like he had done in the Mountain Sui Sword Sect.

The little girl whimpered and curled her body in fear when Wang Yu approached her again.

"Listen to me," Wang Yu squeezed Senja's face between his thumb and forefinger. "Every time you think to tell your grandfather about what had happened, remember this pain. You will get hundreds time worse than this. No one can save you! Not even your grandfather." He said slowly. Emphasizing every single words so it could engrave in Senja's mind and the little girl could remember this for the rest of her life and would never have a thought to disobey him.

Wang Yu released his gripped from Senja's face as he stood up and clean the dust around his robe. "Get up!" He shouted to the trembling Senja.

Ignoring all the pain she felt and her leg which couldn't support her body, hastily she tried to stand straight by the support of wall behind her.

"Stop crying! We will have a nice chat after this." Wang Yu glared at Senja. He would made her spilled all the things she knew when she was with Ye Xiu. He refused to believe if there weren't important things that Senja could give him. She was with him for more than 10 days after all.

***

Xiao Tianyao followed Elder Dam in silence. No matter how careful they looked for Ye Xiu's figure, they couldn't find that man. Even though, Xiao Tianyao knew that they wouldn't find him in this direction, he still kept looking thoroughly.

"Commander Dam, we couldn't find that man here probably he has flew away." Xiao Tianyao said in fake concern. "Moreover Xiao Jun has been following him, let's go back and check on your granddaughter first." He suggested, starting to get bored with this little act.

In a moment Elder Dam was contemplating Xiao Tianyao suggestion and eventually nodded his head. "Let's go back for now."

Elder Dam and Xiao Tianyao ran all the way back to the place where they left Senja with her father, but they couldn't find the little girl and Wang Yu.

"Where are they?" Elder Dam murmured and wandered his eyes to his surrounding, right at that moment a shadow guard emerged from the dark and knelt before Elder Dam and Xiao Tianyao.

"Where is my granddaughter?" Elder Dam directly asked the Shadow Guard before he could say anything.

"Answer to Master. Young Miss Senja was brought by Master Wang Yu to the near lodgment so a physician could check on her."

"Physician?" Elder Dam narrowed his eyes, as he remembered Senja was fine when he left her. But, he didn't very sure also because he didn't examined her thoroughly. "What happened?"

"This subordinate isn't very sure, but the moment this subordinate came, Young Miss Senja had passed out." The Shadow Guard knitted his eyebrows. Because, when he came Senja had laid on the ground with blood gushing from her mouth.
