Chapter 183: Coercion

Watching Zhou Heng and Lou Gao enter, Tai Tan could only helplessly open his mouth, but he could not make a single sound.

Looking at Tai Tan, who looked like he was about to die, Zhou Heng was somewhat silent. Although he had mentally prepared himself to use various tools he had seen in his past life, he was now a bit afraid to use them; he was afraid that if it were too intense, he might accidentally kill Tai Tan.

After a moment of thought, Zhou Heng pressed his right index and middle fingers together, quickly tapping several times on Tai Tan's body in succession, then, with soul power slightly flickering at his fingertips, he injected a strand of special toxin into Tai Tan's body.

In an instant, Tai Tan's originally pale complexion immediately began to flush, and although his body remained just as weak, his spirit was forcibly pulled back up.

Zhou Heng forcibly used a special method to stimulate Tai Tan's adrenaline secretion to a great extent, forcibly making Tai Tan's state improve.

However, to prevent Tai Tan from being too cautious and refusing to speak even when the adrenaline hit, Zhou Heng used a bit more toxin to slightly disrupt Tai Tan's mind and body.

Simply put, it amplified Tai Tan's perception of pain.

Combined with the toxin left in Tai Tan's body by Poison Dominates the World, Tai Tan would feel a sensation like being cut by knives.

"Pah! What exactly do you two guys want to do? If you want to kill or dismember me, I'll take it alone; whatever the matter is, don't take it out on my clansmen!"

Tai Tan's voice was irritable; having just recovered some strength, he roared angrily at Zhou Heng and Lou Gao.

However, despite his agitated emotions, hindered by the fact that Zhou Heng's strength was simply crushingly powerful against the Strength Clan, and the fact that his clansmen were currently under the other party's control, Tai Tan did not dare to be too extreme.

He didn't dare to spit or curse, and although his voice was loud, in reality, his confidence was quite insufficient.

"Speak, who instigated you to come to the Blacksmith Association to cause trouble? If you don't speak, we will go and ask your clansmen."

"My clansmen? They don't know anything!" Tai Tan's emotions were agitated, the iron chains on his body clattered loudly, and the flesh that had originally grown together with the iron hooks and chains was torn open by his rough movements, with large amounts of blood flowing down Tai Tan's body.

"If you can't ask it out, then it's just being stubborn and uncooperative."

"If you don't cooperate, I'll beat you to death, then ask the next one. I don't believe your news can be hidden from the whole clan; if I interrogate them one by one, there will always be someone who can speak."

"You! You don't want to interrogate at all, you want to kill!" Hearing Zhou Heng's words, Tai Tan's eyes seemed to be suffering from a Douluo Continent special edition of Down syndrome; his face instantly turned red and he panted like an ox, the whole person extremely agitated.

"So what if I want to kill? In the Douluo Continent, the weak are prey to the strong. Since you broke the rules first and prepared to make a move, then since your skills are inferior and you lost in my hands, what does it matter if I kill your whole clan?"

"If you don't open your mouth, let alone your children and grandchildren, even those within three generations who have blood relations with your Strength Clan won't be able to live."

"Regardless of whether they are in Heaven Dou or Star Luo, regardless of whether they are Spirit Masters with soul power or ordinary people without soul power, I won't let them go."

"Although I dare not say that there will never be Spirit Masters with the Vajra Ape martial soul on the Douluo Continent again, it is still quite simple for me to make the inheritance and bloodline of your Strength Clan completely extinct, and your enemies on the continent probably wouldn't mind coming for a round of revenge."

"Who told you to lose almost all of your clan's high-end combat power here?"

Speaking of this, Zhou Heng waved his hand and released some strange-looking things from his Storage Soul Guidance Device.

Among them were some things that Tai Tan, as a God Craftsman, could recognize at first glance as some kind of cruel torture instrument.

And although Tai Tan could not understand some things like steel wool balls and small knives, even with his toes, Tai Tan knew that these things were definitely some kind of torture instrument whose use he did not know.

Zhou Heng pointed to the Tiger Bench, Wooden Horse, Bronze Bull, and other torture instruments that were easier for people to accept, and gave a brief introduction.

He had originally thought that Tai Tan, as a High-level Soul Master, should be quite tough in this regard.

As a result, Zhou Heng had only mentioned the usage of a few tools when Tai Tan had already closed his eyes, his lips almost bitten to shreds by himself.

Tai Tan's face was pale, as if he were a dead person who had been left for several days; when he opened his eyes again, the look he cast at Zhou Heng was already full of fear.

His barren brain could not understand at all why there would be such a vicious person in the world who could actually think of so many things and methods to torture people?!

He was a person who protected his own, the kind of elder who shows up after the young ones are beaten.

In his heart, the importance of his clansmen, especially his own children and grandchildren, was probably second only to his loyalty to Tang Wu.

After reaching his age, he was even more doting on his only child.

Tai Tan did not doubt at all whether Zhou Heng would take ruthless action, because he himself had done plenty of such things as raiding homes and exterminating clans. Now that the status was reversed, Tai Tan did not doubt at all that this star of disaster, who seemed somewhat familiar, would grind his Strength Clan into dust.

No, being ground into dust would be fine; Tai Tan was truly afraid that this star of disaster would hang his clansmen up like eating and drinking, slice them into slices of meat in front of him, and then force him to eat them.

Tai Tan, who was trapped like a roast duck in a hanging oven, gritted his teeth, looked at Zhou Heng and Lou Gao for a long time, his eyes full of bloodshot veins, and then helplessly lowered his head and sighed.

Tai Tan, who had barely managed to get excited, now looked as if he had been left for several more days; the blood on his face faded, and the whole person looked very fragile.

"What do you want to ask, say it. I don't dare to lie, I just beg you, even if you take action, give me a quick end."

"I want to ask, where are those three Elders of the Wutian Sect now?"

"You?! How do you know? Even within my Strength Clan, only a few people know about this!" Tai Tan suddenly raised his head, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"No, didn't you put the letters communicating with the Wutian Sect Elders in your own Storage Soul Guidance Device?"

Zhou Heng looked at Lou Gao and found that the other party was also looking at him with a surprised expression.

Just as the two of them thought about whether this was someone's scheme, Tai Tan's face lowered, and his voice could not help but shrink.

"That's true, I put the letters in my personal Storage Soul Guidance Device and locked them with a Mechanism Box, just to prevent others from seeing them."

"But in my current state, the Storage Soul Guidance Device has already fallen into your hands, and it is normal for it to be searched out. That Mechanism Box cannot stop a God Craftsman from cracking it either."

"I can tell you this, but you must swear to let my other clansmen go."

"I accept whatever you want to do to me; my skills are inferior, so I have nothing to say, but you cannot harm the other clansmen of my Strength Clan."

Tai Tan said in a deep voice.
