"Yes, I think that should be enough for today," said Lex as he cleared his throat, exuding the same casual confidence as before, completely hiding the amount of pain he was actually in.
Jokes aside, he had asked the Gilded Hollow to teach him more about how to torture people, but how could he have known that the realm would take him so seriously? Fortunately, the energy absorption system he had encoded into the necklace itself had not failed him which kept him empowered throughout the retribution, allowing him to survive.
But survival did not have to be pleasant. The Hollow's retribution was far from weak, and that was considering the fact that it had been adjusted to his cultivation level. Any other regular Heaven Immortal would not have been able to survive at all. This was a clear and complete death sentence for them!
