“Yes, sir!” Yang Liao imdiately took the charcoal pen and started drawing. As long as he could survive, there was nothing he couldn’t betray.
Having lived in the Yang residence for years, he knew his residence’s layout very well and quickly drew it out clearly.
“It’s done.” Yang Liao imdiately said, “Let explain in detail. This is the main entrance, and the main entrance leads to a huge front yard. There are more than a hundred houses against the wall in the front yard, and they are the guards’ residences…”
Yang Liao explained in detail. After speaking for a mont, he was mostly done.
Shang Jianyao took out a folded intelligence map and compared it. “Hmm, rather obedient. You didn’t lie.”
As he spoke, he threw the intelligence map to the ground.
Yang Liao took a look and saw that the intelligence had drawings that were clearly much more exquisite. The records of the Yang residence were even more detailed than his introduction.
“Sirs, you know all that?” Yang Liao smiled obsequiously, feeling extrely terrified.
Thankfully… Thankfully, he didn’t lie! He would’ve died if he had lied!
“Sa for the next question; you’ll die if you lie,” Xu Jingming—who was wearing a human skin mask—stated coldly and threw another piece of paper on the ground. This piece of paper was filled with nas.
“Your Yang family plans on sending teams out of the capital. Tell , how many teams are there in total? Who is in each team? Give a simple introduction of everyone.” Xu Jingming pointed at the paper on the ground. “This has the nas of many Yang family mbers. In case you can’t rember, you can use these nas to answer .”
The color on Yang Liao’s face drained as he imdiately said, “I only know a portion! I’m not sure how many Yang family mbers will leave the capital this ti.”
“Tell everything you know,” Xu Jingming ordered. “According to what you say, I’ll decide whether you live or die.”
“I’ll talk, I’ll talk.” Yang Liao imdiately said, “First, I have to lead a team myself. This team of mine has more than 30 Yang family mbers, and most of them are from the collateral branches. There are also more than 200 guards.”
“Who are the 30-plus Yang family mbers and the 200-plus guards?” Xu Jingming asked coldly.
…
After being interrogated for an hour, Yang Liao felt dizzy and told his captor everything he knew.
“You only know three teams? What a disappointnt.” Xu Jingming shook his head.
“These are also the three teams I determined based on my father and Third Uncle’s conversation.” Yang Liao imdiately said, “I’ve said everything I know about the Yang family and the guards.”
“Then, I’ll ask you one last question.” Xu Jingming’s eyes turned cold. “Where is the gold exchanged by the Yang family hidden?”
Yang Liao was stunned.
“This is the last question. If you answer well, you live. If you don’t… you know the outco.” Xu Jingming stared at him.
“I’ll talk.” Yang Liao’s voice trembled. “It’s in the inner courtyard of the Yang residence.”
As he spoke, he pointed at the map he had drawn and began explaining it in detail. “There are many traps in this vault. I don’t know what they are either; I’ve only entered once.”
“Hmm, rather honest.” Xu Jingming stepped forward.
“Don’t kill . Don’t kill .” Yang Liao was horrified.
Xu Jingming briefly body-searched him and took off a brocade pouch and the jade pendant he carried with him.
“Just so change is worth 2,000 to 3,000 taels of silver,” Xu Jingming praised after his search. “As expected of the Yang family’s scion.”
Yang Liao trembled.
Xu Jingming picked up the paper on the ground and left with the three Lv. 8 experts.
Yang Liao leaned against the wall and dazedly waited for a mont before confirming that the four terrifying experts had really left.
They didn’t kill ? I survived??Yang Liao was thrilled. He propped up his body with both hands and slowly wriggled his spine. He was a qualified expert after all, so his spine finally returned to normal after so movent.
Only then did Yang Liao get up.
These four are really soft-hearted. Not only did they not kill , but they didn’t cripple completely. Hahaha…?Yang Liao was excited as he thought to himself,?If you fall into my hands one day, bla it on your softheartedness.
Yang Liao imdiately slipped out of the residence and quickly rushed to the Yang residence.
…
The mont he stepped through the door of the Yang residence, he felt completely safe.
“Second Young Master.”
“Second Young Master, you’re back?” The Yang residence’s guards imdiately greeted him. They were secretly delighted when they heard that Second Young Master Yang had been abducted by an expert, hoping that he was killed as well.
Who would’ve thought that he would escape alone in the blink of an eye?
“Hmph.” Yang Liao couldn’t be bothered with these guards and headed straight for the residence.
“Liao’er.” Soon, Yang Liao t his father—Yang Muyang.
Yang Muyang was an ambitious and ruthless figure. He had a rough face and sharp eyes, and his strength made him a super expert. Under his leadership, the Yang family grew stronger. Although they couldn’t compare to those ancient families in the capital, they could be considered one of the second-tier families.
“You were abducted by four experts?” he asked.
“Yes.” Yang Liao was still in shock as he imdiately said, “They didn’t kill after capturing . They were likely eying our Yang residence.”
“Tell in detail what you experienced,” Yang Muyang said calmly.
Only then did Yang Liao reveal everything. Of course… he didn’t say anything about his 5,000 gold! He didn’t want to embarrass himself in front of his father.
The more disappointed his father was, the less gold and silver he would receive when he left the capital. Yang Liao still cared about his image in his father’s heart.
“They asked about the Yang residence’s layout and all the mbers of the Yang residence? The teams that will leave the Yang residence? And… the vault?” Yang Muyang nodded. “These four people should only be the tip of the iceberg of the enemy’s forces. They should be targeting our Yang family’s vault.”
