"Senior apprentice-granduncle Long?" Hearing his words, Yan Zhaoge smiled, "It looks like you are rather valued by your seniors in your lineage, knowing such a secret."
"Still …" Yan Zhaoge instead shook his head, "I am different from you, different from that person as well."
The other party glanced deeply at Yan Zhaoge.
Having been able to roam the World beyond Worlds alone, how could he be someone who spoke indiscriminately?
While it had seemed like he had blurted out some information earlier, it had actually been yet another attempt to mislead and probe Yan Zhaoge.
His senior apprentice-granduncle's lineage had always been passed down by a single person in the World beyond Worlds.
Also, it was not a master-disciple lineage but a bloodline legacy. With descendants remaining in the World beyond Worlds, his seniors would have to leave as they would not remain in the World beyond Worlds.
While he did not know who the person currently in the World beyond Worlds was or what his identity was to outsiders, it was definitely not Yan Zhaoge.
His understanding of Yan Zhaoge was very limited. Still, he knew that Yan Zhaoge's father had appeared in the Royal Reed Sea as well, his identity clear.
If Yan Zhaoge had directly admitted it earlier in an attempt to mislead him, he would instead know that Yan Zhaoge did not understand the situation.
Yet, Yan Zhaoge's words now made it hard for him to judge.
Looking at the other party, Yan Zhaoge smiled, "No need to try and get information out of me. You should just answer my questions honestly. I have never minded extorting confessions through torture."
"While you are older than me, you are still extremely young amongst martial practitioners of the same cultivation level. I believe that your talent and will are both very good, and you might even be very confident in your own willpower."
Yan Zhaoge smilingly took out a golden needle, waving it in front of the other party, "Still, I wonder if you can withstand the Cold Marrow Needles of the Seven Great Tortures? With your background, you should have heard of the Cold Marrow Needles before? "
"It is true that you are of the Prime Clear direct lineage and have a deep background. Still, since you pretended to be me and ended up in my hands, I will have no qualms about whatever I do to you."
"I will say this shamelessly. Even if I pull out your tendons and flay your skin, grind your bones and scatter your ashes, if your seniors want to avenge you and come to the World beyond Worlds to look for me, they will first have to pass through the Earthly Sovereign."
That youth smiled bitterly, "It was wrong of me to impersonate you and enter the World beyond Worlds. Still, we can be considered to have some sort of relationship at the end of the day. There is no need to use a great torture like the Cold Marrow Needles, right?"
Yan Zhaoge waved his hands, interrupting him, "Whether or not there is a relationship between us will depend on whether or not you are tactful."
This youth instantly choked, not having thought at all that Yan Zhaoge would be so shameless.
Yan Zhaoge asked leisurely, "Right, after chatting for so long, I still don't know your name?"
He almost had the urge to burst into tears.
After such a long time, you still know to ask for my name?
The youth answered solemnly, "Prime Clear disciple, Sun Zhongda."
Yan Zhaoge nodded, "Very good. I do not need you to say anything about the internal affairs of your lineage. Still, you have to tell me clearly why you have come to the World beyond Worlds."
Sun Zhongda sighed.
Regarding the problem of his sect, he would rather challenge the punishment than reveal it.
Still, Yan Zhaoge had not asked him about this, only asking him why he had come to the World beyond Worlds. With that, there was no need for him to be stubborn.
After all, he was meat on someone else's chopping block. If he stubbornly persisted, he would only suffer.
While Sun Zhongda also cultivated in the dao of the sword, he was flexible and adaptable. As long as his bottom line was not crossed, he was always adaptable.
He was silent for a moment before he said, "That jade necklace is related to a secret treasure. While I only came up with this idea on the spur of the moment after hearing the news, I have also come to the World beyond Worlds this time for that secret treasure. Knowing that the jade necklace is related to that secret treasure, I have also made a trip to Whale Fishing City."
Yan Zhaoge glanced at him from the corner of his eye, "What kind of secret treasure would cause you to be willing to take such a great risk?"
Sun Zhongda said, "It is related to the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace. If the clues are right, it should be the Pill Hall of the Divine Palace where countless divine pills and spirit medicines were stored that year."
While Yan Zhaoge's expression did not change, he was inwardly vigilant, "Are you trying to scare me? First not mentioning whether the Pill Hall of the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace still exists after the Great Calamity, even if it does, if it really does exist, the bigwigs of your Prime Clear lineage would not even complain about having too many people mobilizing. You have come to the World beyond Worlds alone now? "
"Pardon my bluntness, but you are not even qualified to lead the way."
Sun Zhongda's expression was as per usual after hearing this, "The Solar Luminary Young Master speaks true. I have only come to try my luck. It is not that I will definitely be able to find the Pill Hall of the Divine Palace."
He said candidly, "The clues are extremely limited. Also, they do not point to the Pill Hall itself, instead pointing to a pill furnace that was once within the hall."
"I want to try and find this pill furnace. Afterwards, there might be some hope of finding the Pill Hall."
"Still, can you actually find the pill furnace? Even if you do find it, can you find the Pill Hall? As you said just now, does the Pill Hall still exist? How many divine pills are still preserved within? These are all unknown. My lineage will naturally not invest too much effort into this. "
Sun Zhongda said, "Researching the clues, I sensed that there might be a way out of the World beyond Worlds. Therefore, after some preparations, I came here. Disguising myself as you is to make it easier to traverse the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory."
Yan Zhaoge asked him, "Where is your destination in the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory?"
Sun Zhongda answered, "Jade Sun Mountain Range, Solitary Heart Peak."
Feng Yunsheng, Ah Hu, and Xiao Ai exchanged glances without batting an eyelid.
Yan Zhaoge had found clues based on the Encompassing Abundance Golden Pill. The Heavenly Flame Tree that he was looking for was precisely growing in the vicinity of the Jade Sun Mountain Range's Solitary Heart Peak.
Yan Zhaoge asked, "What does this jade necklace have to do with that place?"
Sun Zhongda explained, "It is rumoured that this is not a treasure that the Xie Family has always possessed. Instead, the Family Head Xie Liang purchased it from someone else."
The original owner of this item had once been to the Jade Sun Mountain Range's Solitary Heart Peak, having even obtained two spirit pills that could be considered precious even in the World beyond Worlds from there.
As news had spread afterwards, others had headed there as well, trying to try their luck. Still, they had all returned empty-handed in the end.
The original owner having already perished, not leaving anything behind, some people had set their gazes on this jade necklace.
There were only a few people in the vicinity of the Jade Sun Mountain Range who knew of this as it had yet to spread to the Setting Sun Archipelago.
While Xie Liang had purchased the jade necklace, he was unaware of the underlying story behind it.
Yan Zhaoge pondered for a moment before saying, "Can you let me take a look at that most original clue that you obtained?"
Sun Zhongda smiled bitterly, "It is not that I am unwilling. It is that I cannot. That is just a piece of information stored within a jade talisman. After looking at it, the jade talisman became empty."
Yan Zhaoge stared at him for a while before suddenly smiling, "I just like dishonest people like you."
Saying thus, he pierced an acupoint on Sun Zhongda's body with a golden needle. The other party's expression instantly changed greatly.
Looking at the trembling Sun Zhongda, Yan Zhaoge said mildly, "The thing still exists, just that it is not in your hands. You have other fellow disciples who have also come out in search of that treasure, just that they might not have entered the World beyond Worlds, right?"
