There is a saying circulating in God's Domain: It is better to offend the number one player in the standings than to offend Yan Ling.
Because he said you will die, you really will die.
Jiang Heng thought it was fart.
He said "stop" at the cost of a nosebleed and temporary blindness. He said "warm" at the cost of hearing loss. Every time he spoke a word, part of his strength was taken away from his body, and the price increased gradually, and never was easy.
Later someone told him that this is not how Yanling is used.
The man pressed his wrist against the hollow in his chest.
"Say you want my heart."
Jiang Heng was stunned: "What."
"Say you want it. This is something you've had since ten thousand years ago."
It turns out that every time his words came back, someone paid half of it for him. The man who paid the bill for him had broken the bones all over the floor and was waiting for him to pick them up piece by piece.
