Back then
Yan Du was now at the Ninth Sky of Spirit Gathering Realm. Naturally, he was more knowledgeable than anyone else present.
He was shocked to discover that Chu Xingyun's sword was like wind and lightning. At the same time, it contained two different types of Sword Qi. It was too strange, completely beyond his knowledge.
Chu Xingyun's footsteps spun as he slowly descended from the air. His face was still expressionless.
Before he made his move, Chu Xingyun was very clear that he would definitely win against Shui Chongde. The reason why he proposed a battle was to test his strength.
"You've lost. According to the bet, tell me what happened sixteen years ago." Chu Xingyun kept his Sky Slasher Sword. As for the Raging Flame Sword, he casually threw it and nailed it to the wall.
Shui Chongde fell to the ground like a dead dog. Pain, anger, and hatred intertwined on his face. In the end, he let out a hysterical laugh and roared, "I know nothing about what happened sixteen years ago. You've got the wrong person!"
"Shameless bastard. You clearly lost the bet and you still want to deny it." Tiger Chu's expression was sullen as he kicked Shui Chongde away. Shui Chongde crashed into the wall and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"So what if I deny it? Kill me if you have the guts!" Shui Chongde's face was covered in blood, but he laughed even more wildly. Ever since he was locked in the Dark Prison, he had never thought that he would leave alive.
"You want to die? Wouldn't that be too easy for you? " Chu Xingyun snorted and slapped his palm on Shui Chongde's abdomen. Spiritual energy flowed along his arm and began to wreak havoc.
"Ah!"
Almost in an instant, Shui Chongde let out a miserable howl. His body twitched on the ground as if he was in extreme pain. Even his facial features were distorted, like a demon from the abyss.
"What did you do? Why is my Spiritual Sea so painful?!" Shui Chongde stared at Chu Xingyun with red eyes. Even his voice was trembling, filled with endless pain.
The other members of the Shui Clan who were also locked up in the Black Prison shivered when they saw Shui Chongde in such pain. They knew that Shui Chongde had a tough personality and wasn't even afraid of death.
But now, he was in so much pain that he was hovering between life and death. It was hard to imagine how shocking this pain was. If it were them, they would rather die than endure it.
"After stepping into the Spirit Gathering Realm, a Spirit Ocean will be formed in a practitioner's body. Just now, I merely used a small trick to reverse the flow of the Spirit Ocean in your body. Once this reverse flow starts, it will not stop. Furthermore, as time passes, it will become more and more painful."
"However, you can be at ease. Although this sort of pain is intense, it will not kill you. Instead, it will arouse your desire to live, and cause you to be immersed in this sort of pain for the rest of your life."
As soon as Chu Xingyun finished speaking, a deep fear appeared on Shui Chongde's face. Such intense pain was only the beginning. Would he have to endure it for the rest of his life?
"Ahhhhh!"
Painful howls resounded once more, and each howl was more miserable than the last. It caused everyone's hair to stand on end. Finally, Shui Chongde couldn't endure it any longer, and he knelt heavily on the ground. "I'll speak! What do you want to know? I'll tell you everything. "
Chu Xingyun's brows twitched, and he sent out a ray of Spiritual Energy to reduce Shui Chongde's pain by more than half. "Tell me everything you know. If there's even the slightest bit of falsehood, I'll make you regret being born into this world."
If it were before today, Shui Chongde would have snorted disdainfully at those words. However, after witnessing Chu Xingyun's capabilities, he completely believed what Chu Xingyun had said. His entire body was trembling.
"You're right. The assassination sixteen years ago was indeed planned by our Shui Family and the Dreamy Cloud Martial House. At that time, the Dreamy Cloud Martial House took the initiative to look for us. They said that as long as we completed this matter, they would give our Shui Family many benefits. My elder brother was possessed and agreed."
Shui Chongde knelt on the ground and hurriedly said, "However, the Dreamy Cloud Martial House wasn't the only mastermind behind this matter. The Flowing Cloud Royal Family was also involved. Furthermore, our Shui Family was only responsible for the massacre. The ones who kidnapped your parents were the Dreamy Cloud Martial House and the Flowing Cloud Royal Family. It had nothing to do with us."
"The Flowing Cloud Royal Family?" Chu Xingyun was slightly shocked. In his previous life, he didn't know about this. As the ruler of the Liuyun Dynasty, the Flowing Cloud Royal Family was extremely powerful. Why would they go through so much trouble to kidnap two people?
"Then, do you know their motive?" Chu Xingyun asked.
Shui Chongde shook his head and said, "This matter was handled by my elder brother. I was only the one who carried out the orders. I have no right to know their motive. If you want an answer, you can only look for my elder brother."
Chu Xingyun looked at Shui Chongde. He knew that Shui Chongde wasn't lying. From this, it seemed that this matter wasn't as simple as it seemed.
Putting aside the Dreamy Cloud Martial House, there was also the Flowing Cloud Royal Family. There must be something else going on.
"I've said what I wanted to say. Now, can you let me go?" Although the pain in his body had been reduced by half, Shui Chongde was still in great pain. His voice carried a strong pleading tone.
Chu Xingyun slightly shifted his gaze and swung his arm.
Swish!
A bloody wound immediately appeared on Shui Chongde's neck. Boiling hot blood spurted out. His body immediately lost its vitality and fell to the ground.
"You've slaughtered so many of my clansmen. Do you think it's possible for you to leave this place safely?" Chu Xingyun coldly said. The cold killing intent emitted from his voice caused the Shui clansmen to feel a chill from the bottom of their hearts. They all knelt down and begged for mercy.
"Young master, how should we deal with this group of people?" Tiger Chu asked Chu Xingyun.
"Kill them all!" Chu Xingyun's cold voice caused the Shui clansmen to be stunned. There were more than a hundred of them. Killing them all with just one sentence? Was Chu Xingyun crazy?
"This group of people have committed all kinds of crimes. They're all notorious people. Leaving them in this world will only harm more people. Since that's the case, what's the point of leaving them alive? Kill them all. Don't leave a single one alive! "
Chu Xingyun walked out of the dungeon, leaving behind only his icy-cold voice. It constantly echoed in the heads of these people, causing their faces to become incomparably pale.
Soon after, when Chu Xingyun left the Dark Prison, a burst of roars, wails and even cries of despair came from behind him. It was as if he had arrived at the legendary Avici Hell.
However, he still maintained his original expression and calmly walked away.
Chu Xingyun wasn't a bloodthirsty person, but he wasn't a soft-hearted person either.
