Central Spirit Region, South Region, Zhishou Tower.
In a dark and gloomy prison of the Warden Office.
A blurry figure was trapped in one of the cells, his body covered with countless runes.
His body was trembling, as if he was enduring some kind of pain. His chest had been pierced through, and his flesh was wriggling, but the wound could not heal.
Not far in front of him was a cold-faced cultivator wearing the uniform of the Warden Office.
The Warden Office cultivator stared at the "prisoner" for a long time, his face solemn.
"You're tight-lipped," the Warden Office cultivator finally said.
"Zhishou Tower, you're really audacious. How dare you attack our Spirit Huan Sect! If the Sect Master finds out, he'll definitely teach you a lesson!" The blurry figure's voice was extremely ferocious and pained.
He ignored the Warden Office cultivator's words and continued to threaten, "Aren't you afraid of provoking a war between the Spirit Huan Sect and the Da Xia Kingdom?
"How could you kill each other at a time like this?!
"Ridiculous, ridiculous!"
"Idiot," the cold-faced Warden Office cultivator crossed his arms in front of his chest and said coldly, "Since we've done it, we'll do it flawlessly. We won't let the news spread."
"Flawlessly?" Hearing this, the blurry figure suddenly revealed a strange smile and said eerily, "If you don't want anyone to know, don't do it in the first place.
"There's no such thing as flawlessly in front of us Spirit Huan Sect cultivators."
The cold-faced Warden Office cultivator's expression changed when he heard this. "What do you mean?"
"Hahahaha …" But at this time, the blurry figure no longer spoke or explained. He only laughed crazily to himself.
After staring at the blurry figure for a while, the Warden Office cultivator saw that he could not get any more information out of him, so he silently turned and left.
The iron door opened silently, without the eerie sound of grinding iron as he had imagined.
Outside the iron door was a long corridor. Dim light shone on both sides of the corridor.
The stone corridor seemed to be slightly slippery due to the humidity. The air was slightly turbid, and it seemed to blend in with the dim light around it. It was as if this was some evil place in the Eighteen Levels of Hell.
Almost at the same time, a warden walked out from another prison not far away.
However, when the warden came out, he was followed by two of his subordinates, who were escorting a "prisoner" who was also covered in runes.
He waved his hand and ordered, "Bring him to the second class room."
"Yes, my Lord." The two subordinates responded and left with the captives.
Along the way, they passed by the prison of the blurry figure from before.
Through the bars of the prison, he saw his companion being taken away. His pupils constricted, and no one knew what he was thinking.
On the other side, the two warden cultivators looked at each other and communicated for a while. Then, they shook their heads helplessly.
Finally, the two of them walked along the corridor until they reached the end and entered a clean and bright room.
At this moment, there were already two people in the room.
Sitting on the main seat was a woman, and behind her was a middle-aged man with a solemn expression.
As soon as the two warden cultivators entered, they bowed and said respectfully, "Manor Lord, Manager Tie."
Following this, before the two of them could ask, they explained the situation. "We couldn't get anything out of them …
Even if we used bewitching methods, the two of them seemed to have fallen for it at first and answered all the other questions we asked. However, once we got to the core questions, they would wake up inexplicably. "
"I see …" The male cultivator called Director Tie nodded thoughtfully. He then said to the woman in front of him, "Water Moon Temple … Tower Lord, Cheng Ya Yu and Leng Ling Qi are the two most outstanding interrogators in our Southern Region Warden's Office. If they can't get anything out of them, then the others are even more useless."
"But …" Tie Zongsi thought for a while and said hesitantly, "Although we can't get too much information out of them, based on their reactions, it's almost certain that there's something wrong with them. Should we just use … soul-searching methods?"
The Water Moon Temple Lord shook her head and said, "Soul-Searching methods will only give us fragments, and they might not be valuable."
"However, if we're lucky, we might …" Manager Tie said, "At least there's some hope. It's better than not being able to get anything out of them."
The Water Moon Temple Lord suddenly smiled, "Who said we're at our wit's end?"
Manager Tie paused and said, "Manor Lord, you have a way to make them talk?"
The Water Moon Temple Lord slightly nodded, "We've tried the Warden's methods, but we haven't tried the Heaven's Secrets Temple's methods."
"Ah?" Manager Tie paused and was confused.
According to the Water Moon Temple Lord, the Heaven's Secrets Temple had methods to deal with the current situation.
However, how could the Heaven's Secrets Temple be more professional than the Warden in this aspect?
The Water Moon Observatory Lord was calm and said softly, "Come in."
The three people present paused and looked around.
A young woman with a slim figure and good looks wearing a Taoist robe walked in.
"Master." When the young woman came in, she first bowed to the Water Moon Observatory Master and then said to the other three in a tone that was neither servile nor overbearing, "Lin Yao greets the three Wardens."
Ah?
Was this the Heaven's Secrets Temple Lord that the Water Moon Temple Lord mentioned?
… A Nascent Soul cultivator?
Could a Nascent Soul cultivator have a way to pry open a mouth that they couldn't even pry open?
The three people looked at each other and saw the shock and disbelief in each other's eyes.
The Water Moon Temple Lord did not explain and only said to Cheng Ya Yu and Leng Ling Qi, "You should have gotten the information I asked you to ask, right?"
Cheng Ya Yu took a step forward and reported respectfully: "Other than when we asked the core questions, the two of them would mysteriously come back to their senses. Under our bewitching methods, they would basically answer all of the other questions we asked.
The information that Manor Lord is concerned about is not the core questions … "
Until now, they still couldn't figure out why the Watermoon Tower's master would care about such trivial matters.
"Good." The Water Moon Temple Lord nodded in satisfaction and said, "Then tell my disciple all the information you obtained from the interrogation."
Although Cheng Ya Yu and Leng Ling Qi did not understand the meaning of this, they naturally would not object.
After organizing his thoughts, Cheng Ya Yu took the lead and said, "The cultivator I interrogated is called Yang Quding. He is a high-level cultivator of the Spirit Huan Sect. After a large number of Spirit Huan Sect cultivators were transferred back to the Central Spirit Region, he is one of the Warden cultivators in charge of coordination …"
The detailed information about Yang Quding came out of Cheng Yayu's mouth.
After he was done, Leng Ling Qi also introduced, "The Spirit Huan Sect cultivator I am in charge of is called Lin Shanye …"
Lin Yao listened attentively and would ask about some details from time to time.
.....
Feather Demon City.
The battle had been going on for 15 minutes.
At this moment, rows upon rows of buildings in the city had collapsed and there were countless casualties. Wails could be heard everywhere.
The thousands of guards in the city had already suffered heavy casualties.
In the distance, Lu Qingshan was hovering high in the sky. He controlled three flying swords and continued to sweep through the city.
After slaughtering the seventy or so Seventh Grade Devil Cultivators of Feather Demon City, he returned to Feather Demon City and started another massacre.
His three flying swords were like three streaks of red lightning shooting through the sky like comets. They were incomparably sharp, and their long tails lit up the sky. The sword light connected the sky and the earth.
"Puff! Puff! Puff! "
The guards of Feather Demon City could not resist Lu Qingshan's domineering flying swords. As long as they were hit by the flying swords, they would fall down. Their foreheads would be cut open and fresh blood would flow out.
Lu Qingshan's three flying swords caused a great chaos.
Compared to the chaos and disorder of Feather Demon City, the center of Feather Demon City was strangely calm.
There was a strange plant growing there. Its entire body was black, and its leaves were huge and shaped like palm-leaf fans.
Waves of strange fragrance were emitted from its leaves. Between the huge leaves that were like doors and windows, there was an incomparably huge flower bud that was as big as a millstone.
Devil Qi lingered in the flower bud and was constantly being released. There was also a black light being released that enveloped the entire city.
The black light flowed through the city, making it look exceptionally gorgeous.
Human cities were protected by formations. Although Demons' cities did not have formations, they also had their own methods.
This strange flower was the foundation of Feather Demon City.
It was born with a natural domain that covered the entire Feather Demon City.
Any Devil Cultivator of Feather Demon City within the domain's range would have their combat power increased by at least twenty percent.
In addition, once a Devil Cultivator of Feather Demon City was injured, the Devil Qi released by this strange flower would quickly heal their wounds.
This was the reason why Lu Qingshan had spent so much effort to lure the snake out of its hole.
With the power of the mountains and seas and Devil Suppression, he did have the confidence and strength to act recklessly.
However, this did not mean that he would choose to act recklessly.
This Sword Cultivator … was a little steady.
Around the strange flower, there were nearly ten seventh-grade Devil Cultivators gathered together.
The strange flower emitted a condensed black light that formed a light barrier that protected them.
"Are we really going to sit by and watch this human Sword Cultivator slaughter so unscrupulously?" One of the seventh-grade Devil Cultivators said with an ugly expression.
"What else can we do? The City Lord and Deputy City Lord are high-level Devil Marshals, but they also died at the hands of this human Sword Cultivator. If we leave the protection of the Black Devil Flower, I'm afraid we'll die an unnatural death."
"Where there's life, there's hope."
"I've already sent out a signal for help. Hold on a little longer, reinforcements will be here soon," another Devil Cultivator said fiercely.
When Lu Qingshan started slaughtering Feather Demon City, their first reaction was not to resist, but to hide under the protection of the Black Devil Flower to survive.
It was a wise choice.
The Black Devil Flower was not good at attacking, but in terms of support and defense, it was definitely top-notch.
Even a top-notch Devil Marshal would not be able to break through the protection of the Black Devil Flower in a short time.
In the sky.
Lu Qingshan glanced at the nearly ten seventh-grade Devil Cultivators in the center of the city and did not make a move against them.
— — He had already tried to break through the defensive domain of the Black Devil Flower. Unless he used the Dragon Sparrow Breakthrough, it would not be easy.
He then wantonly attacked the sixth-grade and fifth-grade guards of Feather Demon City.
After a while, Feather Demon City was already littered with corpses.
With his strength, killing these fifth-grade and sixth-grade Devil Cultivators was not difficult.
At this time.
A gray figure appeared in his line of sight. It was extremely fast, and in a flash, it flew toward him and finally rushed in front of him.
It was the Western Rat King.
"Lu Qingshan, it's done." The Western Rat King was extremely excited, as if he had made a great contribution. In his mouth, there was a storage ring.
"I emptied their treasure trove!" The little rat demon said, trying to claim credit.
"Well done." Lu Qingshan nodded, took the storage ring, and checked it with his Divine Sense. He found that it was full of all kinds of minerals, materials, books, Devil Weapons, and so on …
A thief does not leave empty-handed.
The West Rat King, who was extremely talented in this field, emptied out everything he could find in a very short period of time.
I'd like to call you a treasure-seeking rat … Lu Qingshan ridiculed in his heart.
He looked at the ruins of Feather Demon City again, and with a thought, he took back the three flying swords.
"It's time to go."
He had never underestimated the Demons.
Today, he had created such a big commotion that he was afraid that he had already alarmed the Demons' true powerhouses. Presumably, the Demons' reinforcements were already on the way.
He did not have much time to waste.
"Are you going to slip away?" The West Rat King's eyes darted around.
"Strategic retreat," Lu Qingshan corrected.
Then, without another word, he suddenly flew out on his sword and quickly left Feather Demon City.
Although both sides tacitly agreed not to use combat power above the seventh-grade, that was under normal circumstances.
He was now going to massacre the city. It was entirely possible that the Demons would send an eighth-grade Devil Cultivator to reinforce Feather Demon City.
If he did not leave now, he would be killed.
There was no way he could defeat an eighth-grade Devil Cultivator. If he really encountered one, it would be difficult for him to escape.
.....
At the same time.
South Continent's Zhishou Tower, inside the prison.
The damp smell, mixed with the smell of blood, began to ferment in the prison cell.
The sound of footsteps could be heard.
The pale Yang Quding heard the footsteps and could not help but frown. He raised his head with difficulty.
Then, he saw that his companion, Lin Shanye, who had been taken away by the warden, was brought back.
Lin Shanye had only been taken away for two hours, but he seemed to have been tortured for ten days and ten nights. His face was pale, and his body was a bloody mess.
Was he finally unable to bear it and resorted to violence?
Yang Quding twitched the corner of his mouth and sneered.
To them, the most useless method was to force a confession.
He believed that Lin Shanye must have said nothing.
What surprised him was that this time, the warden didn't separate the two of them. Instead, he threw the dying Lin Shanye into his cell.
Huh? What's going on?
As a Deacon of the Spirit Huan Sect, Yang Quding knew a lot.
When two prisoners were caught at the same time and wanted to be interrogated, they had to be separated.
Otherwise, if two people stayed together, they could communicate and exchange information, and their willpower would be difficult to sway.
After throwing Lin Shanye into the cell, the warden left.
At this moment, their bodies were covered with many talismans, which prevented them from using their inner yuan, so they could not commit suicide. Apart from that, they were not restricted from speaking.
As for the so-called suicide methods of mortals such as biting one's tongue, they would not work for cultivators.
Biting one's tongue?
With the strength of a cultivator's body, they might not be able to bite off their tongues without being able to use their inner yuan.
Moreover, even if they bit off their tongues, with the strength of a cultivator's body, it was not enough to kill them. It was an injury that would have healed if it had been discovered later.
"Lin Shanye, what happened?" Seeing that the warden had left, Yang Quding hurriedly asked about his companion's situation. "Why did they take you away? Why are the two of us locked up together now? "
"Cough cough …" Lin Shanye seemed to be severely injured. His voice was hoarse, and he coughed twice before he spoke with difficulty. "They saw that bewitching me was useless, so they flew into a rage out of humiliation. They wanted to use violence to force me to speak …"
"Haha …" Yang Quding heard this and sneered. "What a joke. If bewitching is useless, then torture is even more useless."
He did not even ask if Lin Shanye had spoken. He was extremely confident that he had said nothing.
"Indeed … Why would I be afraid of a mere interrogation method?" Lin Shanye's face was hidden in the shadows, but his eyes suddenly flashed with a bright light.
However, Yang Quding obviously did not notice this.
