Chapter 738: Chapter 734: Forcing a Confession Chapter 738: Chapter 734: Forcing a Confession “How is the situation at Jilei Mountain before you left?” Shen Luo asked, turning to the red-skirted woman after listening.
“It has been surrounded by the Demon Clan and demons, but they haven’t attacked yet. It seems they are waiting for the news of Father King leaving the mountain,” the red-skirted woman said after a mont of thought.
“So they want to coax the fox out of the mountain, trap the Fox King with the Golden Net Array, and deal with the left-alone Ten Thousand Years Fox King when the dust settles on Jilei Mountain. You all really have a good plan.” Shen Luo couldn’t help but laugh.
“Fortunately, the Fox King wasn’t fooled…” Wang Qiu said with a sheepish smile.
“Wang Qiu, you’re asking for death by playing both sides.” Seeing this, Quan Xi couldn’t help but scold angrily.
“I was forced in the past and had to secretly side with whoever was advantageous. Now, with Elder Shen’s rescue, I will draw a firm line against you demons in the future. There is no room for reconciliation,” exclaid Wang Qiu righteously.
Shen Luo found this amusing. He admired Wang Qiu’s thick-skinned ability to portray himself as a victim of oppression rather than the perpetrator with just a few words. It was really… shaless.
“Enough with the nonsense. Who led the assault on Jilei Mountain this ti?” Shen Luo asked.
“It’s a Cloudstepping Beast that has been possessed by demons. It brought tens of thousands of demons. Other than this rabid dog, there is a Purple Pheasant demon and an Earth Dragon demon under its command,” Wang Qiu quickly replied.
“A Cloudstepping Beast…what is its realm, and what special abilities does it possess?” Shen Luo asked with a furrowed brow.
Just as Wang Qiu was about to speak, Quan Xi suddenly shouted, “Die!”
In an instant, a prohibition seal appeared on Wang Qiu’s forehead, and his head exploded like a ripe waterlon.
Quan Xi had barely managed to mobilize his mana, activating the prohibition planted in Wang Qiu’s body. The mana imdiately got absorbed by the Golden Rope, but he wore a smug expression on his face.
Shen Luo, seeing this, couldn’t help but shake his head in resignation. He squatted down beside Quan Xi and said sympathetically, “I really don’t know what you were thinking. If you kill him, won’t I have to question you?”
“Hmph, I won’t say a thing,” snorted Quan Xi.
“Oh, that’s what I admire, your fortitude.” Shen Luo chuckled.
Quan Xi, seeing this, felt a sudden chill in his heart for so reason.
“Did you know that the Great Sage Equal to Heaven Sun Wukong used to have a treasure called the ‘Sea-Suppressing Divine Needle Iron’? Mine is similar, it can beco big or small. What do you think would happen if I put it in your ear?” Shen Luo said, holding the Sea Suppressing Iron Rod in his hand.
“Isn’t death the worst thing you could do? Stop threatening !” Quan Xi scoffed at these words.
“Good. You have guts.” Shen Luo applauded, then shrank his Sea Suppressing Iron Rod down to the size of a needle and carefully inserted it into Quan Xi’s ear canal.
Quan Xi only felt a tickling sensation in his ear and involuntarily jerked.
However, just as he moved, the needle in his ear suddenly expanded, growing into a small toothpick.
“You…”
Before Quan Xi could finish a sentence, the toothpick thickened again, completely blocking his ear, causing his whole body to stiffen.
If the injury were on the outside of his body, he wouldn’t fear even being invaded by a blade or an axe. Yet, slight changes in these vulnerable parts of his ear could make him feel it very acutely.
“Shh, from now on, except for answering my questions, don’t make any noise, or move. If you do, this Sea Suppressing Iron Rod will grow even further…”
“Screw you… Ah…” Before Quan Xi could finish his sentence, he suddenly scread. The Sea Suppressing Iron Rod in his ear had grown to the thickness of a thumb, his ear canal had deford severely.
“I know you’re not afraid to die, we’ve only just started. Wait until this Iron Rod crushes your skull bit by bit. I’ll completely open the top of your skull and extract your divine soul. I’ll light it with a never-ending soul lamp and offer it to the Jade Fox Clan. I’m sure they’ll take good care of you and won’t let your soul enter the cycle of reincarnation.” Shen Luo laughed.
Upon hearing this, Quan Xi’s face was imdiately covered in cold sweat. The Underworld was in chaos. Even if he died, he could still be reborn and take over another body through the Demon Clan’s secret technique.
But if his soul were lit by a soul lamp, it would be a fate worse than death for at least a thousand years.
“Alright, let’s talk business. What realm is the Cloudstepping Beast in, and what are its special abilities? How is the Great Army deployed, and how do they plan to capture Jilei Mountain?” Shen Luo asked with a serious face.
Upon hearing this, Quan Xi gritted his teeth and remained silent.
Seeing this, Shen Luo gave a re thought and the Sea Suppressing Iron Rod in Quan Xi’s ear instantly doubled in size, leading to a sharp ringing sound of a bronze bell striking in Quan Xi’s ear.
“Ahh…” He couldn’t help but let out a miserable cry.
“Sorry, I forgot to ntion that if you don’t answer the question, you’ll get the sa treatnt,” Shen Luo added with a laugh.
A look of despair flashed in Quan Xi’s eyes. His past opponents consisted mostly of stragglers from the Immortal Realm or monks from lower realm sects. After a stern reprimand, they would usually fight to the death. How could they ever have encountered soone like Shen Luo?
“Even if you knew all this, it would be useless. Jilei Mountain has already been flattened by our king,” Quan Xi finally spoke up.
“What…?” The red-skirted woman exclaid in horror.
Xiao Yu also looked startled.
“Don’t believe his nonsense. If Jilei Mountain was so easy to conquer, they wouldn’t have worked so hard to capture you in order to lure the Ten Thousand Years Fox King out of the mountain,” Shen Luo didn’t believe it and laughed to disprove his words.
“Luring the old Fox King out was just part of the plan. If that doesn’t happen, we’ll naturally have other ans to breach Jilei Mountain,” chuckled Quan Xi.
“With you lot? What other thods can you have? Judging from your situation, that Cloudstepping Beast probably isn’t that smart either,” Shen Luo continued to mock.
“Bullshit! Our King has already laid out secret sches in the Fox Clan. Even if the Fox King doesn’t co out today, we were already going to break through. You…you deceiving bastard!” Quan Xi cursed halfway and then realised sothing was off. He had fallen for Shen Luo’s trap.
“It looks like there really is sothing wrong at Jilei Mountain. We don’t have ti to waste here; we must return imdiately,” Shen Luo finally stopped joking and spoke seriously.
On hearing this, the red-skirted woman and Xiao Yu, who were already extrely anxious, quickly nodded in agreent.
“What about this guy?” Shen Luo asked, sowhat hesitantly.
The red-skirted woman glanced at Xiao Yu’s injury. She strode forward and took out a curved blade.
“What are you going to do?” Quan Xi asked in fear seeing this.
Seeing this, Shen Luo imdiately lifted his hand and waved. The Sea Suppressing Iron Rod in Quan Xi’s ear instantly grew a hundred tis larger, transforming into a massive pillar standing upright. Naturally, Quan Xi’s body below beca a ss.
“Let’s go.” He waved his hand, collected the storage bracelet that had fallen, and said to the two won.
