Chapter 297: Interrogating Li Jiang

~7 min read 1,392 words

Yamamoto Kengo, having finished enjoying the body of a female slave, walked out of the room looking intoxicated. As he tidied his clothes, he opened his panel, only to see a message sent by Li Jiang.

He clicked into it and said with some annoyance, "Idiot! This useless guy can't even handle such a small matter; Dragon Country people are just unreliable."

Just as he was preparing to reply to Li Jiang, Meilingzi walked slowly to his side, clutching her belly, and asked, "Lord Yamamoto, it's bad, Li Jiang has been captured!"

Yamamoto Kengo looked at her in shock and asked, "Meilingzi, is what you're saying true?"

Meilingzi nodded, "It is true. This was told to me by a diplomat from the Roaring Group. According to them, Li Jiang was captured alive by his opponent while leading them in pursuit of a target. Now they are preparing to disband the Roaring Group and join us."

"Yoshi~" Yamamoto Kengo looked at the photo of Zhu Zhiquan placed on the coffee table, greed revealing itself in his eyes, and then asked Meilingzi, "What was this guy's name again?"

Meilingzi followed his gaze, "This person rarely speaks on the World Channel; even now, I have no way of knowing his name."

"Couldn't find his information?" Yamamoto Kengo picked up Zhu Zhiquan's photo, "It's a pity; if such a good Soul Sacrifice were offered to Lord Bushi, I would certainly receive a generous reward from him."

Meilingzi pressed against his body and asked softly, "Lord Yamamoto, then about the Roaring Group..."

Yamamoto Kengo threw the photo back onto the coffee table casually, hugged Meilingzi's waist, and said, "You reply to them for me; as long as they send over the information about this guy and the people around him, I will approve their joining."

Meilingzi took one last look at Zhu Zhiquan's photo and nodded solemnly, "Hai!"

…………………

In the evening, Li Jiang slowly woke up from his coma. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw that he was bound by a mass of Thorn, and standing next to him was a palm-sized sprite.

Looking at the sprite's jasmine-like dress and cute face, Li Jiang was instantly mesmerized, even forgetting his own situation.

Perhaps it was because he had stared for too long, but the sprite covered her face and flew away. Li Jiang sniffed the scent left behind by the sprite in the air; a faint jasmine fragrance entered his nasal cavity, making him incomparably intoxicated.

Just as Li Jiang was still savoring the scent left by the sprite, Zhao Yuxin's soft voice came from behind him: "Is my Gelina pretty?"

Li Jiang wanted to turn around when he heard the voice, but as soon as he moved, the Spike on the Thorn pierced into his body, causing him to wince in pain.

Zhao Yuxin squatted behind him and asked with a smile, "Hello, brother~ Can you tell me what your profession and talent are? I really want to know why you can resurrect."

"Pah! I won't tell you even if you beat me to death!" Li Jiang put on a look of not fearing death, "I'll tell you, my allies will be here soon!"

"By then, my subordinates will join them to kill their way back. If you don't want to be killed, then hurry up and let me go; I guarantee I can show mercy and forgive you!"

"Even... I can allow you to be my 25th wife. Don't worry, I will cherish you then, and also that little sprite from just now..."

Slap!

"Ah! My leg!" Li Jiang screamed, then turned his head with an angry face, only to see Zhu Zhiquan holding a four-to-five-meter-long staff, his eyes filled with disdain.

A cold, gloomy, and terrifying aura radiated from Zhu Zhiquan's body, causing Li Jiang's arrogant momentum to drop a few notches, because he felt that the other party seemed to have some means of restraining the soul; if he angered him, he might not be able to resurrect.

Thinking of this, Li Jiang couldn't help but tremble. Zhao Yuxin also noticed this small detail, then leaned her face over and asked, "Oh my~ It looks like you are very afraid of my husband. How is it, is his deterrent power higher than mine?"

Li Jiang closed his eyes and acted as if he hadn't heard Zhao Yuxin's words at all. Seeing this, Zhu Zhiquan threw the Jingtian Pozhen Gun aside, drew the Five-Star Sword, applied Ghost Fire Attachment to it, and walked slowly in front of him.

Li Jiang felt Zhu Zhiquan's aura close at hand, but he still kept his eyes tightly shut, looking completely unwilling to cooperate.

So Zhu Zhiquan stabbed his sword into his stomach and kept cutting, while the Ghost Fire on it constantly Scorch his body, making Li Jiang struggle continuously.

"Alright Ajiu, don't kill him. Didn't you say before that you wanted to know how he resurrected? If you kill him, do you know how?" Zhao Yuxin pulled on Zhu Zhiquan's arm to dissuade him.

Zhu Zhiquan glanced at Zhao Yuxin, pulled out the sword, removed the Ghost Fire Attachment, and wiped off the blood.

Zhao Yuxin squatted down and looked at Li Jiang, who was entangled by the Thorn. At this moment, Li Jiang was gasping for air due to the intense pain, and his intestines were even flowing out from inside.

Seeing this, Zhao Yuxin first called Gelina to heal him, then repeated her question to Li Jiang.

Li Jiang wanted to refuse, but looking at Zhu Zhiquan wiping his sword on the side, his body shivered involuntarily.

Seeing that Li Jiang still refused to speak, Zhu Zhiquan prepared to give him another round of torture, which scared Li Jiang into screaming loudly, only to have his face deformed by a slap from Zhu Zhiquan.

At this, Li Jiang became completely obedient and said inarticulately, "I confess... I confess, this is actually something my talent does. The skill is 'Substitute Mirror', which allows me to be reborn when I receive fatal damage."

"'Substitute Mirror'... Then what are the limitations of this talent?" Zhao Yuxin asked while taking notes.

"The limitation is that it can only be used four times in total, and the range cannot exceed one thousand meters."

"Then can you sense the location of the Substitute Mirror?"

"No."

"You'd better think clearly~ If you dare to lie to me, Ajiu won't be soft-hearted."

"Absolutely not! Beauty, just believe me, I guarantee every word is true!"

Looking at Li Jiang's firm gaze, Zhao Yuxin finally decided to believe him, left two Durian Warriors in charge of guarding, and walked out of the room with Zhu Zhiquan.

In the carriage, Zhao Yuxin turned her head to ask Zhu Zhiquan: "Ajiu, do you think that guy is reliable?"

Zhu Zhiquan shook his head and said, "Not sure."

Zhao Yuxin trotted to the front of Zhu Zhiquan, walking backward while saying: "Then do you want me to interrogate his allies again?"

Zhu Zhiquan shook his head and pointed outside the carriage: "The couple and Xuebao's meal will be ready soon; let's finish eating first before talking."

"Okay~ Hee hee!" Zhao Yuxin laughed and pulled Zhu Zhiquan's hand as they ran outside the carriage.

At the same time, Li Jiang tried his best to turn his head to judge the surrounding environment and hit on Gelina: "Hello~ little sprite, can you help me untie the Thorn? When the time comes, I'll let you be my 25th wife, how about it?"

Gelina did not respond. Seeing this, Li Jiang kept hitting on her, but Gelina did not reply; she just finished healing him and left.

Afterward, Li Jiang wanted to secretly look at the two Durian Warriors, but unfortunately, he was entangled by the Thorn and couldn't see the positions of those two Durian Warriors at all.

So Li Jiang began to think about the possibility of his escape, and finally found that the only way to escape was suicide.

Then, regardless of the pain, he struggled desperately, letting the thorns on the Thorn constantly cut his blood vessels, so that he could cause death by excessive blood loss and thereby escape from here.

There seemed to be no fear of death in his eyes; clearly, everything he had just confessed was not that true.
