Diligence System: From Servant to Martial King-Chapter 362 - 278: The Grand Event Begins—Exotic Attire, Rival Rankings, Li Xian Takes the Stage (Part 2)

Chapter 362: Chapter 278: The Grand Event Begins—Exotic Attire, Rival Rankings, Li Xian Takes the Stage (Part 2)

The four women exchanged glances, chuckled, and said playfully, "It’s been a long time. You... better come quickly. Since you’ve become the prize, we’ll allow you to take a look at this grand event."

Nangong Liuli felt both ashamed and angry, unwilling to comply. She secretly performed the Martial Arts of "Thousand Jin Fall," her feet as if rooted deep into the ground, refusing to move an inch.

The four women knew she was resisting and laughed, "At this point, resistance is futile. Since you won’t cooperate, don’t blame us." They encircled her like phantoms in an instant and said, "If you don’t stop, shall we use ’One Finger Gentle Breeze’?"

Nangong Liuli quickly stopped her technique, gritting her teeth in anger, temporarily swallowing her hatred, "It’s more powerful than me, I’ll go with you." The four women suddenly laughed, "Even if you stop, we never said we wouldn’t use it."

Four fingers struck simultaneously. They pointed at Nangong Liuli’s back, ribs, and abdomen in four places. She widened her eyes, too late to be angry, and let out a miserable cry as her body went completely numb. The four women lifted her up and carried her out of the room.

Nangong Liuli’s eyes were wet with tears. The encounters over the past few days were nothing short of extreme humiliation. The finger technique attacked her, and her Inner Qi was hard to resist, trembling slightly. She still had to endure the mocking words of the four women.

About half an hour later, they arrived at a room with a finely polished silver mirror capable of reflecting the entire body’s styling, revealing detailed facial features.

The four women admired, "This girl has a good background, beautiful looks, and a first-class figure. Alas... we four sisters can’t compare to her."

Nangong Liuli pursed her lips in silent determination, still not speaking, as the finger force passed down along her spine, seemingly mixed with some medicinal power. Truly, it melts the bones when touched, softens the heart, and paralyzes the flesh...

They arrived at a warm pool, emitting steam. The four women undressed her and allowed her to enter the pool to cleanse her body. Nangong Liuli stepped onto the bottom of the pool, her whole body relaxed, curiously observing her surroundings. The four women stood at the four corners of the pool, vigilant against Nangong Liuli’s resistance.

At this point, Nangong Liuli was deeply trapped, feeling there was no escape, and therefore indulged in enjoying the bath, her face slightly flushed. Since her capture, a bath had become a luxury. The cramped jail beneath the ship was hot and dark, with sweat pouring like rain, clothes drying only to get wet again. Martial Artists are ultimately "people," and awkward situations naturally arise.

Later, she was confined to a bedroom. Her situation improved somewhat but still found it difficult to wash. Along with erratic thoughts persisting. Truly, it was a spring-infused confinement.

Just like the beautiful scenery of March, lush grasses, misty water, spring dew dripping.

She paid no heed to the flood, disaster looming. After washing, the four women brought a wide towel, which she simply draped over herself, her long hair cascading like a waterfall.

The four women laughed, "You are indeed fortunate, granted approval from above. We’ve specially prepared the ’Rainbow Dress’ for you."

Then they took out a wooden box and opened it, revealing a set of exquisite garments—fabric imported from the Western Regions, feeling like silk but woven carefully. The four women took out the clothes, which included a dress with all the accessories: silver hairpins, earrings, shoes, socks, sachet, and pearl strings... Upon counting, there were many accessories never seen before.

Under the candlelight, the many accessories reflected each other, with colorful spots flowing. The four women stroked the fabric maliciously and smiled, "This girl... Once you put on this dress, you are truly blessed."

Nangong Liuli initially wasn’t extremely opposed to the lavish clothes. But upon closer inspection, she felt a sudden shiver, wanting to flee. The clothes had thin hair-like needles hidden beneath them. If worn, they would pierce the skin. But the needles were extremely thin, presumably without pricking sensation.

Upon further inspection... The ’Rainbow Dress’ fit Nangong Liuli’s frame perfectly. Each needle matched the body’s acupuncture points. These points corresponded to her Martial Arts studies. If worn, the acupuncture points would be tightly restrained.

She would be powerless, subject to control.

The four women said, "This is woven from the Pure Extreme Jade Silk of the Western Regions. This material doesn’t collect dust, and even after years of wear, it remains clean."

The Flower Cage Sect was proficient in ingenious techniques. This set of clothing was a masterpiece, hiding traps within its beautiful appearance.

Nangong Liuli struggled hard to resist, but her state was weak. Although the four women’s martial arts were inferior, they attacked together, aided by One Finger Gentle Breeze, which Nangong Liuli couldn’t counter.

They fought tensely for a while. Nangong Liuli said in a deep voice, "Fine... I’ll wear this outfit!" She had no choice but to swallow her anger and temporarily endure. She started wearing the clothes, putting on the light socks. Throughout, she felt no sensation from the needles.

But the moment she was fully dressed, her acupuncture points were restrained, losing seventy percent of her Qi power. She tried to move her Inner Qi, but as the Qi passed through several major acupuncture points, it was dispersed by an invisible force or blocked, unable to cross the barrier.

She could still summon Inner Qi, but had to bypass essential acupuncture points. The meridians the Qi traveled were all narrow and secluded. Martial Arts couldn’t be executed, making her virtually devoid of Inner Qi.

It was like two armies fighting, transporting supplies. The wide roads were all blocked. Supplies had to detour on long routes, even abandoning vehicles, carrying grain over mountain paths. By the time they arrived, the front army was already defeated.

Reduced to a fragile girl, easily controlled.

Moreover, the foundation acupuncture points controlled by the needles in the clothes were interconnected, possessing another wonderful use, along with the "Clear Fragrance" triggering erratic thoughts.

With the Rainbow Dress clad, beautiful eyes glanced.

Her expression changed, beyond words.

The four women said, "Don’t rush, there’s more dressing to do. Do you think it ends like this?" Nangong Liuli lamented, thinking, "Oh dear... there’s more dressing... I... I can’t live on!"

At this point, she wasn’t their match. They adorned her face, applied lip color... making her look exceedingly beautiful. Her cloud-like hair and phoenix hairpin entirely transformed her... Though hidden resentment flashed in her eyes, her appearance was exquisite. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

She seemed invited to a banquet.

Nangong Liuli was filled with shame and anger, but when reflecting in the mirror, her beauty was unsurpassed. Her cloud-like hair was as dark as ink, her posture graceful.
