Chapter 144: Ultimate Plan for Interrogation Decryption

Someone pointed at the giant screen showing the gate of the Shen clan's ancestral land.

Only then did people discover that the gold‑bronze gate of the Shen clan's ancestral land had long been open.

Quite a few youngsters had already come out, all standing at the entrance waiting to be guided!

Most of them were bewildered, not understanding why no one had come to receive them yet.

Those who had come out early, upon seeing the Primordial Responding Dragon, were all gazing up at the Heavenly Dragon, murmuring, "Primordial Responding Dragon? Am I seeing things, or has it not appeared yet?"

"I'm hungry, I'm faint from hunger, my vision's blurred?" Shen Qingci foolishly rubbed his eyes and even stuffed the last piece of biscuit into his mouth.

If he hadn't already come out, he would truly be reluctant to eat that last biscuit!

Shen Qingci, who had never known what hunger felt like since childhood, was now truly terrified of hunger.

Because he had been unrestrained before, eating and drinking whenever he pleased, he later ended up living a tight life.

Shen Qingtong not only didn't remind him, she didn't support him either! She really starved him until he grew thin……

And having eaten his fill, Shen Qingci indeed no longer saw the Primordial Responding Dragon, so he began joking with Shen Qingtong.

"Ninth brother, you don't know, I was so hungry just now I saw a dragon."

"You didn't missee, it's a dragon, plus my little sister, her husband, and the old ancestors."

Shen Qingtong's eyesight is sharp; she sees things more clearly than anyone, so naturally she also saw her own people on the dragon's back.

"Ninth brother, are you also faint from hunger?" Shen Qingci handed over a water flask, "Here, take a sip to tide you over, anyway I've run out of biscuits."

Shen Qingtong couldn't be bothered with him, and Shen Duo appeared before her, "Fourth uncle has arrived."

"Mm." Shen Duo patted Shen Qingtong's shoulder, "You've worked hard, looking after this foolish younger brother."

"Fourth uncle, who are you talking about!"

"You." Shen Duo said bluntly.

As they spoke, Shen Qingmo also came out, "Father."

"Mm." Shen Duo nodded, examined his son carefully, "Not bad."

"Where's my little sister?" Shen Qingmo came out looking for people, but didn't see her; could she still not have come out?

"She's already out. Let's go, I'll take you out first." Shen Duo looked at everyone and led the first batch that had emerged away.

Soon after, Liu Meng and the others also emerged one after another, being guided to outside the Shen clan's great hall, where they heard many people discussing what the Primordial Responding Dragon was.

As for Zhao Qinghe, under the pressure of Jiu Li, he had already drawn a portrait of Su Nv.

"Indeed." Shen Qingli and the others all recognized her—it was Zhao Yue!

Shen Qingli also asked, "Does she have a daughter?"

"You mean the Goddess of Azure Lotus?" Zhao Qinghe countered.

Jiu Li glared, "Is there also someone called 'Shameless'? Such a bizarre name—I'll have to go check it out no matter what."

Shen Qingli couldn't help but laugh, yet still said, "Azure Lotus—isn't that just 'shameless' said quickly?"

Zhao Qinghe: "……"

"Not a bad explanation." Di Jin praised.

Jiu Li continued glaring, "Do I still need to explain?"

Shen Kuo then asked, "A Li, you say your mother doesn't look like this?"

"Right." Shen Qingli remembered clearly, "She's far more beautiful—no wonder I and Zhao Yue look nothing alike; Mother simply doesn't look like this."

Shen Kuo fell silent.

"But Mother's name is still Zhong Minglan; surely this Su Nv has done something."

Upon seeing Su Nv's portrait, Shen Qingli was certain that the suffering she and her birth mother had endured must have been inflicted by this Su Nv lady!

"I've said everything I know; can you let me go?" Zhao Qinghe asked in a groveling tone, yet secretly harbored vicious thoughts! Just wait—once the Zhu Que Nu Di dies, today's grudge will surely be avenged by the Su Nv lady!

"You haven't fully confessed yet." Di Jin said.

Zhao Qinghe blinked, then immediately retorted, "No, I only know this much."

"Want to try the Truth‑Speech Pill?" Di Jin said with a half‑smile, "If what you spit out differs from now, it will devour you."

The pointed‑at Jiu Li was full of question marks! It doesn't eat that; it's picky, okay—it doesn't just eat any trash!

Zhao Qinghe's face turned ashen, "You couldn't possibly have a Truth‑Speech Pill……"

That said, Zhao Qinghe was still uncertain, after all the person before him could even handle the Black Tortoise Divine Seal!

"I'll talk, I'll talk!" Zhao Qinghe dared not gamble; he had only just ascended to the divine realm and still wanted to live longer.

Thus, he revealed everything Su Nv had said, the plans to act against Zhong Minglan.

"This time I've really said it all; can I finally go?" Zhao Qinghe thought, he had to keep his word.

However, Shen Qingli sent him a flash of purple light! The Supreme Ultimate Divine Sword flashed out, severing his neck, his blood sealed inside him without spilling out.

Zhao Qinghe stared wide‑eyed, "You… you… poisonous woman……"

He had clearly said everything! Yet she still killed him—how vicious!

Shen Qingli looked at Jiu Li, "Here's yours."

"I don't eat! What are you giving me for?" Jiu Li howled, "Didn't you also say you don't eat people?"

"This isn't a person, it's a beast." Shen Qingli explained.

Jiu Li relented, "Then I won't eat it either—you burn it."

Shen Qingli indeed burned it, and Shen Jing watched from the side, twitching the corners of his eyes.

He curiously asked, "A Li, what realm have you reached?"

This time, he truly couldn't tell……

Shen Kuo also wondered, "Are you about to ascend?"

"Right, I'll go to the Primordial Origin Sect to ascend." Shen Qingli could feel that her heavenly tribulation was about to descend.

"Together?" Shen Kuo hasn't been idle this month either; he's been in seclusion.

Speaking of this, Shen Yuan gets angry! The Seventh Brother only secluded for a month, yet he jumped straight from Xuan Emperor to Xuan Saint, and at the peak level! He's about to become a deity……

As for Shen Duo, he has already touched the threshold.

So, Shen Yuan is almost shutting himself off, "You're all leaving together, leaving me behind, right?"

"Second Brother, Third Brother aren't here?" Shen Duo retorted.

Shen Yuan sighed, he also wanted to go together! Clearly his talent is no worse than Fourth Brother's, it's just that the family head position is exhausting.

"I just checked; in a while, Little Old Three and Little Old Nine should also be able to come find you." Shen Yuan felt anxious inside, because he currently has no comprehension of the power of rules.

Ironically, comprehending the rules is the necessary path to ascension.

It's not that reaching the peak of Xuan Saint guarantees becoming a deity.

Mainly, one must first comprehend it, then draw the heavenly tribulation to temper the divine body, and only then ascend.

Comprehending such things is mysterious and profound; perhaps he will grasp it soon, perhaps it will take a long time.

"Uncle, the family still needs you to hold things steady; we need a successor, right?"

"Your elder brother will do." Shen Yuan had originally intended Shen Qingli, but the handover ceremony hasn't been done yet, and the child is about to become a deity and ascend.

"You've only just come back not long ago." Shen Yuan felt reluctant inside; other brothers and uncles of Shen Qingli aren't here, otherwise they'd also be reluctant.

"I'll find a chance to come down and visit later."

"Better not; Uncle hopes to go up himself to find you."

Shen Yuan also felt a bit reluctant, but immediately let go, saying, "Go on, I know you're eager to go up and help your mother; hurry."

The Seventh Sister-in-law is still trapped in the barrier wall, awaiting rescue; he can't be overly sentimental with too many words—saving lives comes first!

Shen Qingli is also anxious, but what's actually sealed is the three-legged Jin Wu……

Zhong Minglan's true self has already reached the Su Nv Palace and has locked onto Su Nv!

Facing layer upon layer of seals! She does not stint on divine power, instantly breaking through to Su Nv's side.

Boundless wrath! The divine power of countless myriad years condenses into a primal spear, "Die!"
