He deserved to die!
Gu Xuan did not continue to stay in Yang Yu's residence after breaking through to two stars of the Honorable Stage. Instead, he directly rushed to the Inner Academy.
Within Han Xinyan's residence in the Inner Court, Liu Yuan and the others were gathered there. One of them was constantly attacking the restrictions around Han Xinyan's residence while Liu Yuan and the others sat cross-legged in cultivation.
For over twenty days, they had all stayed in this place. Liu Yuan's four subordinates had each spent six hours continuously attacking the restrictions. Under such circumstances, Han Xinyan was unable to take even half a step out of the pavilion, nor was she able to cultivate. In fact, even her daily life had been greatly affected.
"Han Xinyan, hurry up and tell us where Gu Xuan is. As long as you don't tell us, we won't let you have a day of peace. In any case, we have the advantage in numbers. Using this bit of time to affect you is nothing. However, you won't be able to do anything."
The law enforcement disciple sneered as he attacked the restrictions on Han Xinyan's pavilion.
For more than twenty days, he had done this every day. He knew how much of an impact this had on Han Xinyan's mind and body.
"Don't be delusional. Needless to say, I don't know where Junior Brother Gu is. Even if I knew, I wouldn't tell you."
Han Xinyan's weak voice sounded from the loft. She had been ill at ease for more than twenty days, and she was on the verge of collapse.
Liu Yuan stopped cultivating and stood up with a frown. He didn't expect this matter to be so difficult to handle.
"This Han Xinyan is truly stubborn. She would rather suffer twenty days of torture than cooperate with me. Unfortunately, I was only ordered to capture Gu Xuan. I was unable to order Han Xinyan to come out."
Liu Yuan was already gnashing his teeth in anger. Although he was a law enforcement disciple, he still had to act according to Zong Heng's orders. Zong Heng had ordered him to take Gu Xuan away. Even if Gu Xuan was hiding in the pavilion, he could still ask the corresponding elder for a restriction token. However, he couldn't ask for Han Xinyan.
As for reporting to Zong Heng, that was something that Liu Yuan didn't want to see. Although he didn't have any responsibility, it was inevitable that Zong Heng would leave him with the impression that he was incompetent.
In the loft, Han Xinyan sat on the ground, paralyzed. Her face was haggard, and her hair was a little messy. She was extremely exhausted.
Although martial artists could cultivate for several months at a time, when they cultivated, they would enter a state of pseudo-sleep, so their minds wouldn't be tired.
However, during this period of time, there had been people outside constantly attacking the restrictions. The loud noises and tremors made it impossible for her to do anything. If it had been an ordinary person, they would have long since suffered a mental breakdown and died. As a Venerable Tier cultivator, Han Xinyan wouldn't die. However, the torture she had to endure was even worse.
"Junior Brother Gu Xuan, please don't come back." Han Xinyan's bloodshot eyes were filled with unswerving determination. This matter had arisen because of her. No matter what, she could not allow Gu Xuan to be captured by the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall.
Although Gu Xuan might have a backer, the Law Enforcement Elder was still acting according to the rules of the sect. Even if Gu Xuan didn't die, he would lose a layer of skin. Unless Gu Xuan's backer was a truly top-notch elder in the sect, but how could such an existence have anything to do with Gu Xuan?
…
"What happened?" Gu Xuan and Han Xinyan's pavilion was rather remote. Not long after Gu Xuan entered the inner courtyard, he heard a series of noises coming from the direction of his residence.
"Gu Xuan, that good friend of yours might be in a bit of trouble." Yun Xi's Spiritual Strength had already sensed Han Xinyan's situation, so she warned him.
"Let's go." Gu Xuan's eyes narrowed. He shot out and hurried with all his might.
Liu Yuan was trying to converse with Han Xinyan, but he heard the sound of rushing wind in the distance. Looking in the direction of the sound, he indeed discovered Gu Xuan's figure. He hurriedly waved his hand and stopped the person attacking the restrictions. Some excitement appeared in his eyes. He said, "There's no need to talk nonsense with Han Xinyan. Gu Xuan is coming."
Gu Xuan crossed the distance of several hundred meters in a flash and landed on the ground. He looked at them coldly.
"Gu Xuan, so you still dare to come back. You have injured senior brother Zong Hao. You have committed a great crime. Come with us to the Law Enforcement Hall."
Liu Yuan looked at Gu Xuan with a sneer on his face. Meanwhile, the four people beside him walked around Gu Xuan and surrounded him tightly.
Gu Xuan glanced at Han Xinyan's residence. The sound just now was clearly these people attacking the restrictions of Han Xinyan's residence.
"What were you doing just now?" Gu Xuan looked at Liu Yuan and asked coldly.
"What were we doing?" Liu Yuan sneered. "That doesn't seem like something you should be asking. You are about to enter the Law Enforcement Hall. Even if you don't die, you will end up with all your meridians crippled and chased out of the sect. You still have the mood to care about this?"
"Senior brother Gu Xuan, don't worry about me. Hurry up and run. You are finished if you fall into the Law Enforcement Elder's hands." Han Xinyan also discovered Gu Xuan's arrival in the pavilion. She immediately became anxious and hurriedly said to Gu Xuan.
Gu Xuan's gaze became even colder. "Tell me, what were you doing just now? If you don't give me an explanation, there is no need for you to return. "
"Gu Xuan, you are very arrogant, aren't you?" Liu Yuan sneered and a mocking expression appeared on his face. "However, there are some things that cannot be done just because you say it. You four, tell me, what exactly did we do? Tell him as much as you want. I want to see what he can do to us if we give him an explanation."
"Hahaha, for the past twenty days, each of us took turns to attack the restrictions of Han Xinyan's residence. We destroyed her mind and made it impossible for her to cultivate. Twenty days of torture, day and night. This feeling …"
"Gu Xuan, there is no need for you to show off your ability here. You have been hiding from us for so long and left your friends to suffer for you. Even I feel ashamed for you. You actually have the face to come here and ask us what we did."
"This girl treats you pretty well. She must have taken a fancy to you. We have interrogated her for so long, but she did not say anything about your whereabouts. It is a pity that she took a fancy to a good-for-nothing like you. So what if we tell you everything? We are Law Enforcement Disciples. Do you dare to attack Law Enforcement Disciples?"
A mocking smile appeared on their faces. It was as if they were looking at a clown.
In the sect, the Law Enforcement Disciples' authority was even higher than some King Level Deacons. They had a portion of the power to kill. Although they were only Venerables, ordinary King Level Deacons did not dare to provoke them.
In their opinion, Gu Xuan actually said that he wanted to do something to them. It was truly laughable.
