173 Hell (Please vote~)
He did not ask about Jiang Yun's whereabouts because these were not important to him. The only thing he was concerned about was whether Jiang Yun was safe and when she would be able to return.
Now, Jiang Yun was lying beside him safely, and Fu Xuanyu finally felt at ease.
He listened quietly to the even and peaceful breathing beside him, his heart filled with peace and satisfaction. Then he slowly closed his eyes and fell into a sweet dream.
The next morning, the sky was just beginning to turn pale.
Jiang Yun had already changed into a neat official uniform and was ready to go to the Tianlao to handle matters.
She is heroic and her expression reveals determination and courage.
When the commander of the Imperial Guard, Qin Zhi, learned that the Grand Commander was coming, he hurried over to greet him in person, bowed respectfully and said, "Your subordinate greets the Grand Commander."
Jiang Yun raised his hand, indicating that he didn't need to be polite, and then said: "Don't be polite, I came here today to interrogate the prisoners of Qingyun Sect. If you are free, you can come with me. If you are not free, I will do it myself."
Upon hearing this, Qin Zhi hurriedly shook his head to indicate that he was free, and volunteered to lead the way for Jiang Yun: "I have nothing to do, so I can take the Grand Commander there. Grand Commander, please follow me."
The two of them came to the cell where Qin Tan, Hong Lin, Lu Yan and Lan Wushuang were imprisoned, one in front of the other.
These cells are made of heavy iron, with only palm-sized ventilation holes on the ground for prisoners to breathe and for food to be delivered.
Qin Zhi introduced the prisoners in the cell to Jiang Yun one by one and asked her which one she wanted to interrogate first.
Jiang Yun looked solemn and answered without hesitation: "Take me to see the great elder Tan Tan first."
Qin Zhi responded, then waved his hand to signal his men to open the cell door.
Qin Tan, who had been living in darkness for a long time, felt it was extremely dazzling when he first saw the light.
He stretched out his hand to block most of the light, squinted his eyes and looked at the person coming against the light, but he was unable to recognize the other person's identity for a moment.
Qin Tan closed his eyes subconsciously. When he opened his eyes again, the cell door was completely opened and the entire cell became bright.
And the person sitting in front of him at this moment was Jiang Yun, whom he never expected.
Qin Tan looked at Jiang Yun in surprise and asked in confusion: "It's you? What are you doing..."
Jiang Yun gently touched his official hat, with a playful smile on his lips: "Oh, I'm an official now."
Hearing this, Qin Tan narrowed his eyes, his tone full of confusion and ridicule: "You Qifeng country actually let women serve as officials? Aren't you afraid that the people will protest?"
Jiang Yun just smiled faintly and ignored his question.
Qin Zhi on the side could not help but snort coldly, and retorted in a cold tone: "For a woman as powerful as the Grand Commander, our whole country will only admire her, and no one will oppose her!"
Qin Tan glanced at Qin Zhi with disdain, obviously not believing what he said.
However, when Qin Zhi wanted to say a few more words, Jiang Yun raised his hand to stop him.
Jiang Yun smiled and looked at Qin Tan, and asked calmly, "Great Elder, do you still remember what you promised me before?"
A dark light flashed across Qin Tan's lowered eyes, and he secretly rejoiced in his heart: The opportunity to ask for help from the sect has finally come! So he pretended to be calm and replied, "Of course I remember."
Jiang Yun nodded and continued, "Well, just remember it. Then, can you give me the token recommending me to go to Qingyun Sect?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Tan pulled off the jade pendant from his waist and raised it above his head, pretending to be sincere and said: "This is the token! As long as you take this jade pendant to Qingyun Sect, I will definitely accept you as my personal disciple!"
However, he was secretly thinking in his heart: As long as Jiang Yun dared to take this jade pendant to Qingyun Sect, the leader and elders of Qingyun Sect would know that something had happened to him in Qifeng Country, and then they would be in trouble!
Jiang Yun looked at the jade pendant in Qin Tan's hand, but did not reach out to take it. Instead, she smiled at him with a hint of amusement in her eyes.
Qin Tan panicked, but pretended to be calm and asked, "Why? Have you changed your mind now? Don't you want to go to Qingyun Sect anymore?"
Jiang Yun flexed his fingers, with a mysterious smile on his face. "I forgot to tell you one thing, Great Elder. In addition to my high level of cultivation, I also know a lot. Do you want to know what I can do?"
Qin Tan's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and he thought to himself: What on earth can she do? Could it be that he can read minds? snort! Anyway, as long as it’s not mind reading, he has nothing to be afraid of!
However, Jiang Yun did not answer his question immediately, but remained silent for a long time. Just when Qin Tan was feeling uneasy, Jiang Yun suddenly smiled and said, "If the Great Elder doesn't mind, can I search your soul?"
Qin Tan suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Yun, his face full of shock and disbelief: "What did you say? What are you going to do to me?"
Jiang Yun opened her red lips slightly and repeated clearly again: "Search~Soul~"
Qin Tan looked at Jiang Yun with eyes full of suspicion and a scornful smile on his lips, obviously scoffing at Jiang Yun's claim that he could search souls.
However, Jiang Yun did not say much. He stood up and walked behind Qin Tan, put his hand on his head, and a faint light condensed on his fingertips, which was a sign of the activation of the soul-searching technique.
Qin Tan's smile froze in an instant. He felt a tremor from the depths of his soul, an unprecedented feeling of fear and despair.
At this moment, Qin Tan believed it!
He believes that Jiang Yun will search his soul! !
Qin Tan said in a trembling voice: "No! Please don't search my soul. I will tell you everything you want to know without reservation. Don't, don't search my soul!"
Jiang Yun sneered, "Too late!"
Then he injected the spiritual power directly into Qin Tan's mind. The soul-searching technique was like a sharp blade, accurately cutting into Qin Tan's sea of consciousness and beginning to explore those deeply hidden secrets.
At this moment, endless regret surged in Qin Tan's heart.
He regretted underestimating Jiang Yun's ability, and even more regretted pinning the safety of Qingyun Sect on his own blind self-confidence.
However, it was too late to regret. As the soul-searching technique deepened, the carefully guarded secrets of Qingyun Sect were exposed to Jiang Yun's soul-searching technique like dust blown up by a strong wind.
Qin Tan's consciousness began to blur, and there was only confusion in his mind.
Memories of the Qingyun Sect's forbidden land, mysterious ruins, and internal disputes flooded in like a tide, then quickly receded. In the end, only two words remained in his ears: "It's over."
Jiang Yun took a quick look and gained a deeper understanding of Qingyun Sect.
Originally, she thought that the monks in Qingyun Sect were just a group of hypocritical people who sang the praises of justice and peace on the surface, but were actually thinking about plundering and competing for power in private.
But after reading Qin Tan's memories, I realized that her imagination of Qingyun Sect was too conservative!
The Qingyun Sect is simply a hell! !
