Suddenly, a black shadow walked out from the dim light and looked at Gu Ying tied up on the rack with a frown.
"Young Lord."
Gu Ying's eyes suddenly shot open. He raised his head, and a long whip wound extended from his ear all the way to his collarbone.
In the dim light, Gu Ying's eyes glowed with a chilling glint. The corners of his lips were slightly raised and his lips were stained red, looking highly demonic.
"Hmm?"
"Why does the Young Lord need to suffer such agony? Do you need your subordinate to ….. "
Gu Ying shook his head and a laugh came from his mouth.
"Agony? This little bit of injury is just skin deep. If I am not even able to withstand this little bit, I would have died a thousand times over all these years. "
The number of torture devices in the Blood Fiend Palace was enough to make one's tongue drop. Even among the Twelve Palaces, one might not be able to find a single one that could compare to them. Almost no one was able to endure all the torture devices here. But to Gu Ying, he had personally experienced every single one of the torture devices here and every single one of them had left a deep imprint on his body. It could be said that he understood everything here better than the executioners.
Gu Ying was the only one who had endured all the torture and had not died.
The man's brows creased up tighter and tighter.
"Instead of talking about all this, why don't we send people to keep a close eye on the Cloudy Brook Academy. They have suddenly released all their disciples and it is definitely not a good thing. The people I sent to the Cloudy Brook Academy before this did not come back alive and the Cloudy Brook Academy must have discovered something. If you do not want that thing to slip away before your eyes, you must definitely send people to keep a close eye on it. "Gu Ying seemed not to feel the pain on his body as he instructed in a voice tinged with mirth.
"Your subordinate has already sent people to keep a close eye on them. But the Cloudy Brook Academy has quite a number of highly skilled exponents and the people we sent over have either mysteriously disappeared or died on Mount Fu Yao. Keeping a close eye on them will not be easy." The man's voice was filled with helplessness.
Gu Ying's lips curled up. "It was your actions that were too gentle. If you had acted earlier, with the way the Cloudy Brook Academy does things, you would only need to control the disciples cultivating within the academy and you would be able to make those people from the Cloudy Brook Academy feel apprehensive."
From Gu Ying's point of view, in order to achieve one's goal, it was a must.
"Yes." The man accepted Gu Ying's rebuke humbly.
"Forget it. The monk can run, but the temple can't. Since we are unable to enter the Cloudy Brook Academy, get people to keep an eye out at the foot of Mount Fu Yao. Don't get too close and only need to be clear of their movements." Gu Ying said.
"Understood."
"Alright, you can leave now. I'm going to rest." Upon saying that, Gu Ying closed his eyes, as if he was not in the dungeon, and there were no ghastly scars on his body.
The man hid himself in the darkness and not a moment later, there was not a single trace of his aura left, leaving only Gu Ying alone in the empty dungeon.
Ten days later, the disciples who had been released from the Cloudy Brook Academy all returned to the Blood Fiend Palace.
Gu Yi even personally led a group of people to welcome them, to escort Gu Xin Yan back to the Blood Fiend Palace. Along the way, the father and daughter pair chatted and laughed, Gu Yi's eyes filled with adoration and concern for Gu Xin Yan.
And from the beginning till the end, Gu Ying had followed silently at the side, silently looking at Gu Xin Yan who was highly doted upon by Gu Yi, the smile upon his face never fading away.
