Seduce The Villainess (GL)

(Mount Xilean- Holy Sword Sect)

(Twentieth Peak- Secret Prison)

The Containment Facility aka \'The Hole\'.

That was the nickname given to the prison hidden behind the mountain range of the Holy Sword sect where all manner of vile criminals were held.

These individuals were too dangerous to be released or there may be a need for them in the future, so they were locked away inside of an underground fortress.

And for some… it was just for punishment. Sometimes death was a mercy…

The light underground was almost nonexistent with the only dim lighting coming from the torches that were prone to going out. 

The air was dry and stale, the unpleasant scents of feaces, urine and blood filled the air, and the worst part was the screams.

Some prisoners had been trapped in here for decades if not centuries and had already gone completely mad.

Being isolated in a small cell no bigger than the size of a bathroom did funny things to the human mind no matter how powerful one\'s cultivation level.

Each cell was lined with a strange metal substance covered in dark runes that actively sucked away the qi from the cultivators inside.

Leaving them powerless.

If there was any consolation it was the fact that the guards did not enter this place, so the prisoners were not abused.

Instead, this prison was ruled by powerful \'bosses\' well \'ruled was a bit of a stretch. 

There was only so much control one could have over a den of lunatics, criminals, and madmen.

This was a place to store people, lock the door and then throw away the key. 

Even dead bodies were not taken away and some cells were occupied by skeletons or corpses in various stages of decay.

And this is where the Sect Leader had left the saintess…

Xu Lu opened her eyes and groaned as she felt a blinding headache splitting her mind apart. She looked around and furrowed her brows in confusion.

Where was she? What was this place? How did she get here?

She found herself lying down on a cold hard metal floor in a room no bigger than twenty to forty square feet.

In front of her she could see heavy bars made from a black metal that appeared to be iron. 

There was very little light so she could barely make out what was on the other side of the bars.

The headache was getting worse by the minute, so Xu Lu was forced to grit her teeth to ride out the pain.

The saintess raised up her right palm to the side of her head and felt a sticky substance. She pulled away her hand saw that her fingers were now stained with dried blood.

She was injured? But how? And by who?

The last thing she remembered was… was… wait… why couldn\'t she remember? Xu Lu closed her eyes and tried to think but was immediately interrupted by several loud shouts.

"ARGHH!! I SEE THEM! THEY\'RE IN THE WALLS! THEY\'RE IN THE FUCKING WALLS!"

"HAHAHA! Huang Hao! I SEE YOU! I SEE YOU POOPY!"

"Did you just fling shit at me?! YOU DISGUISTING LITTLE BITCH! I\'LL KILL YOU! I\'LL KILL YOU!"

"Can you both shut the hell up?"

eaglesnovɐ1,сoМ More screams, shouts, curses, and expressions of rage echoed through this strange place and Xu Lu felt her body tremble violently.

A memory surfaced in her mind from the original Xu Lu. She had been here before… she had been locked away in this place to rot away for decades until…

Lei Ying took a dagger and plunged it into her…

The memory ended abruptly, and Xu Lu felt beads of sweat run down her forehead. She now knew a little bit more about this place.

\'The Hole\'.

Wait… but what had she done to deserve being sent in here?

The last thing she could remember was… wait… the Sect Leader… 

"That son of a bitch," Xu Lu cursed softly under her breath as she stood up from the ground and walked over to the iron bars with shaky legs.

She could no longer feel her cultivation strength. It was like all the qi in her dantian had been drained away.

It was not a good feeling.

Xu Lu closed her eyes and used the last vestiges of her spiritual energy to peek inside of her dantian.

The little white unicorn was fast asleep with its chest rising and falling gently with every breath. 

It had once been surrounded by a vast ocean of qi but now that ocean was nothing more than a rapidly drying up lake.

The saintess opened up her eyes and took in a several deep breaths in order to calm herself down.

She needed to think. She needed to find a way out of this place.

The Sect Leader had done this to her.

He had locked her away for telling the truth. There had been no hesitation in his strike to her temples to knock her out.

What would happen to her?

Would she follow the same life trajectory as the original Xu Lu? Be trapped in this dark underground prison complex until her master ended her life?

No...no… fuck that!

Fuck that!

Xu Lu gripped her heart in rage while a fury unlike anything that she had felt before flooded her mind.

She did nothing to deserve this. 

The original Xu Lu did nothing to deserve this. 

Why should they be forced to endure this suffering while the so- called \'righteous sects\' get to play the roles of benevolent gods?

She trusted him.

She trusted the kind grandfatherly aura surrounding the Sect Leader and the concern that he showed for her well-being.

And he betrayed her.

She would not forget… she would not forgive…

"So, what are you in for?" a tired masculine voice interrupted Xu Lu\'s dark train of thoughts. She glanced to the side and saw a cell only a few feet away.

It was impossible to see inside the cell, but Xu Lu strained her eyes and could make out a shadowy human-sized figure.

"I\'m the saintess of the Holy Sword Sect," Xu Lu bitterly laughed as she grabbed on to the iron bars and shook them violently.

The metal did not even shift.

"You can tell some good jokes," the mysterious prisoner giggled softly as he shuffled around in the darkness of his cell.

"I wish I was joking but no… I am the current saintess and now… I am locked away here…" Xu Lu replied darkly as she stepped away from the bars.

The mysterious prisoner remained silent for a moment and then he spoke with a tinge of curiosity to his voice,

"If you don\'t mind me asking… what did you do to get locked away in here? This is a place where the Holy Sword Sect traps demons, demonic cultivators, and mass murderers."

"I revealed the truth to the Sect Leader and well… let\'s just say that he did not appreciate my honesty," Xu Lu sighed heavily as she spoke.

"Damn… well at least…" the prisoner\'s voice trailed off as another horrific scream echoed through the prison.

"Don\'t worry about the noise… you\'ll get used to it eventually… we all do, or we go mad."
