Fifth Liu stared unwaveringly at Lu Ping.
He was originally a very calm person, definitely not a youngster like Zhuo Qing. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been chosen to come to the North Style Academy. But when facing Lu Ping, he couldn't keep his cool. This youngster really didn't play by the rules. All his words and actions were out of Fifth Liu's expectations.
He really wanted to treat Lu Ping's words as pretending to be calm, but the problem was that Lu Ping's words were sincere and his attitude was natural. He couldn't hear the slightest hint of pain in his words, but was instead filled with a thirst for knowledge.
He stared unwaveringly at Lu Ping, and Lu Ping was also looking at him.
He wanted to see through Lu Ping's thoughts, but Lu Ping seemed to be waiting for his answer.
At the same time, the bone-piercing pain didn't stop. The five swollen flesh on Lu Ping's body continued to twitch and wriggle. Fifth Liu was very clear what kind of pain was erupting under the flesh, but the victim, Lu Ping, didn't seem to know.
Fifth Liu decided to give it another try. He raised his five fingers, and the five swollen areas suddenly sprayed out blood. The flesh turned into a mess, and the wounds were so deep that the bones could be seen. Zhuo Qing's face turned pale. He had battle experience and had taken a few lives in his hands, but he still couldn't look directly at such bloody and terrifying wounds. His gaze kept shifting to other places.
But the sudden burst of pain only made Lu Ping frown again. He didn't even make a sound.
But Fifth Liu's ability didn't stop there. On his right hand, the soul power condensed on his five fingers. Gradually, it actually emitted a metallic radiance. This time, Fifth Liu didn't hit casually. His right hand slowly pressed down and placed it on Lu Ping's left hand. The five rays of soul power then poured into Lu Ping's left hand.
Lu Ping's left hand started to tremble. Blood started to slowly seep out from the back of his hand, the center of his palm, and even the flesh between his fingers. But no wound could be seen. Lu Ping's brows furrowed even deeper than before. This made Liu Wu feel somewhat comforted. At least Lu Ping wasn't completely unaware.
The trembling started from Lu Ping's left hand, climbed up his wrist, and slowly moved up his left arm. Along with it was blood that kept oozing out.
"What's that sound?" Zhuo Qing seemed to have heard something, but he quickly identified the source of the sound — Lu Ping's trembling left arm, as if a sharp knife was scraping against his bones.
Zhuo Qing immediately realized what was going on and his already pale face changed drastically again. Before, he didn't dare to look, but now, he didn't even dare to listen.
Liu Wu couldn't care less about Zhuo Qing's feelings. It was his first time using Bone Piercing to such an extent during interrogation. He was concentrating very carefully. Because he only wanted to let Lu Ping taste pain, and not directly take Lu Ping's life, so he had to carefully control his soul power to avoid some fatal points.
When Bone Piercing finally climbed onto Lu Ping's shoulder, Liu Wu still hadn't seen the expression he was anticipating from Lu Ping's face. The five fingers of his right hand suddenly pressed down, and the soul power on Lu Ping's shoulder suddenly slid down. Blood splattered, and an ear-piercing bone scraping sound came from Lu Ping's shoulder to Lu Ping's ankle. This sound made Zhuo Qing almost think that Lu Ping had been split in half.
And this sudden move. It made Lu Ping's entire body shrink into a ball, and he rolled on the ground, his entire body trembling. Liu Wu also let out a long breath. This time, he had used up a lot of mental energy, and a lot of his soul power had been used up, so he needed to rest.
While adjusting his soul power, Liu Wu looked coldly at Lu Ping.
"Now, have you thought of anything?" He made his tone maintain balance, as if he had just used a very ordinary method.
"Thought of something." Lu Ping's reply sounded a bit difficult. His voice kept trembling. He could endure the pain, but it didn't mean that the pain didn't affect him.
And this trembling tone, to Liu Wu, was the music of victory. He was already smiling in his heart, but his face was still as cold as frost. He only said one word coldly: "Speak."
"This superpower … … should be a control type, right?" Lu Ping said.
"That's right." At this point, Liu Wu didn't mind answering Lu Ping.
"I'm done." Lu Ping said.
His voice was still trembling, full of pain, but it completely wiped away the smile in Liu Wu's heart. He was stunned for a full five seconds before he reacted.
"This is what you thought of?" Liu Wu's expression became extremely ugly.
"That's right." Lu Ping answered.
"Very good … … very good." Liu Wu couldn't care about hiding his emotions anymore. A trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes. He raised both his hands in front of him, and his ten fingers began to condense soul power.
"I hope you can hold on until you want to say something." As Liu Wu said this, his ten fingers pressed down, and from Lu Ping's hands, he used Bone Piercing upwards.
The sound of bones scraping rang out again. Even Zhuo Qing, who had always wanted Lu Ping's life, couldn't bear it anymore. Liu Wu didn't move at all. He had already made up his mind to keep pressuring like this. Lu Ping would either speak or die. He wanted to make Lu Ping understand that the information he had was not enough to protect him.
Lu Ping's body trembled even more violently. His curled up body seemed to have shrunk. Liu Wu was still carefully controlling his soul power. However, compared to before, the amount of energy he expended was more than double, and his soul power was being expended twice as much. But Lu Ping only struggled in pain, and still didn't have any intentions of speaking.
"Let's see how long you can last!" Liu Wu shouted. Even a clay figurine had some anger. He, who had been continuously defeated, was completely enraged at this time.
How long?
It wasn't a problem how long … … the problem was, how long could you last?
Lu Ping endured the pain, but his consciousness was clearer than ever.
He cared about what kind of superpower this Bone Piercing was. He wasn't putting on an act with Liu Wu. He wanted to know because it would determine whether or not he would use his new defensive method. If it was a custom-made superpower, then after being eaten by Ecstasy Soul Locking, the superpower's effect would not be displayed, and Liu Wu would immediately notice.
Once he sensed that it was useless, he would naturally change his method. And this was exactly what Lu Ping didn't want to see. This kind of soul power destruction was more painful in the eyes of a cultivator, but it was what Lu Ping was used to enduring. If Liu Wu crudely chopped off his arms and legs, that was what Lu Ping didn't want to see.
So if it was possible, he hoped that Liu Wu would use a similar method to torment him. He could endure it, he could endure it, and if he delayed like this, he would have a chance to escape. Although he hadn't thought of a method yet, every minute he lived was a minute more chance. He wasn't afraid of death, but he really didn't want to die.
Fortunately, Liu Wu's careful control of Bone Piercing's movements allowed Lu Ping to finally determine that this superpower was a control-type and not a custom-made one. Because of this, his Ecstasy Soul Locking defensive method started to activate, and it could more or less reduce some of the damage. But to prevent the other from noticing, Lu Ping controlled it even more carefully than Liu Wu. He only felt that the Ecstasy Soul Locking didn't exist for long enough. He wanted to make it even shorter, but it was completely within his control.
The Ecstasy Soul Locking that was even more fleeting than before sealed away the soul power that Liu Wu controlled bit by bit. Liu Wu couldn't detect this miniscule moment at all. He naturally didn't notice the soul power that was sealed away. He just thought it was a waste of his superpower. It was the first time Liu Wu had used Bone Piercing like this. He couldn't detect any abnormalities.
And Lu Ping continued to work hard to protect himself like this. He carried out this battle that he knew, but Liu Wu didn't know. But the one who broke this battle was the third person here.
"Liu Wu Shixiong." Zhuo Qing, who had wanted to speak but then stopped, finally couldn't resist coming to speak when he saw the crazed expression on Liu Wu's face.
Liu Wu had persisted in using his hands to use Bone Piercing, and his soul power had been continuously stolen by Lu Ping. He was already slightly worried: if he used up all his soul power, this guy wouldn't let go and wouldn't die. At this time, Zhuo Qing's voice caused him to relax slightly and look at Zhuo Qing.
"Maybe he really doesn't know … …" Zhuo Qing said.
"Then he can only die." Liu Wu said. And this actually made him feel a little relieved. He actually hoped that Lu Ping didn't know anything and he could finish him off cleanly.
"Or try another method?" Zhuo Qing said.
Liu Wu looked at Zhuo Qing. He was using Bone Piercing when he suddenly stopped without a sound.
Did Lu Ping really not know anything?
Liu Wu didn't dare to come to this conclusion. All he saw was that Lu Ping had been enduring all this time. He didn't give in and didn't beg for mercy. Whether he knew or not, there was no way to deduce from here. Lu Ping's persevering attitude could only confirm one thing: this kind of hard move was useless against Lu Ping.
Zhuo Qing wasn't overflowing with sympathy. He saw this point, so it could be considered as giving Liu Wu a way out.
As for the other method, what was it? Liu Wu knew that Zhuo Qing didn't know either. In this kind of matter, he was more experienced than Zhuo Qing. But at this point, he could only admit that he was helpless.
It was clearly them who caught Lu Ping and took the initiative, torturing Lu Ping to a horrible state. But now, the sense of defeat in their hearts was far stronger than Lu Ping's.
As Lu Ping listened to their conversation, he realized one thing. This group of people didn't want him to die too quickly, as much as possible.
If that was the case, it would be great.
Lu Ping, who had been tormented half to death, felt extremely gratified.
