Xuan Jiuling slammed the table and turned to look at the Captain who was cowering in the corner.” Come over here! Tell me clearly, is what Xuan Qingling said the truth? How dare you harm the geniuses of the clan? You’re simply audacious!”
The Captain had been hiding in the corner, trying to reduce his presence as much as possible. He did not expect to be called out.
The aura emitted from the entire body of the Dao Profound Realm powerhouse under a raging rage made him shudder.
However, he didn’t even have the chance to dig a hole to hide in. He could only brace himself and walk forward.
He stole a glance at Xuan Qingling, then said in a trembling voice, “Lord Divine General, I…” This lowly one definitely doesn’t have the guts to murder the clan leader’s genius, please be clear! I was ordered by the higher-ups to lead a team here. My goal is to get Young Miss Qingling and her affair… Cough, cough. Bring Young Master Liu back with him. As for other things, I don’t know at all, and…
There’s no way to ask! ”
Xuan Jiuling’s gaze swept across the Captain’s face and he frowned slightly. He believed him a little.
A Heart Profound Realm cultivator’s status in the family was probably not comparable to a genius like Xuan Qingling, who was heavily nurtured. He would definitely not dare to touch Xuan Qingling.
There must be someone behind this.
Xuan Jiuling’s face darkened.” Since you’re following orders, I won’t make things difficult for you. Tell me the name of the mastermind! I want to see who is so arrogant and despotic to do such a thing!”
Hearing this, the Captain lowered his head and complained in his heart. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
The person who assigned this mission to him was also an important figure in the Black Tortoise Clan. In terms of status, he was not inferior to Xuan Jiuling.
Moreover, his entire family worked under that big shot. If he exposed the other party’s identity and offended him, the consequences would be unimaginable.
However, looking at Xuan Jiuling’s stance, if he didn’t say anything, he wouldn’t be able to escape today…
“What’s wrong?” Xuan Jiuling snorted coldly as he lost his patience. You don’t want to tell me?”
The Captain trembled and barely managed to say, “I…” It’s not that I don’t want to say it, but… Instead, I’m not sure…”
“Since you don’t know anything, I can only assume that you attacked Xuan Qingling on your own accord.” Xuan Jiuling sneered. The crime of persecuting a genius of the same race was not light. He would be sent to the Nine Serenities
Cold Pool Water Prison for at least 200 years! You have to think carefully!”
Hearing this, the Captain’s entire body trembled.
He was less than a hundred years old. Two hundred years of water imprisonment was too long.
Moreover, it was said that the water prison was filled with cold poison. The poison gas invaded the bones and brain, causing people to be in unbearable pain.
Two hundred years like this was simply unimaginable.
When he thought of the miserable state of the prisoners in the water prison that he had heard from his family, he was so scared that his legs went weak and he knelt on the ground.
“Lord Divine General, don’t! Lord Divine General, I beg you, please spare me this time! I really don’t know anything. I have orders from above and can only follow orders. I didn’t mean to make things difficult for Young Miss Qingling!
This lowly one has always abided by the clan’s rules and is law-abiding. Please be clear!”
Huang Yueli looked at the miserable state of this person who was crying bitterly and her eyes flashed with a trace of disdain.
If she hadn’t seen the arrogance of this Captain leading his men to chase and humiliate Liu Buyan, she would have almost believed his nonsense!
