Shen Zhao lifted the gray-robed Taoist and sealed all eight extraordinary meridians in his body, pinning him against the wall.
However, at this moment, the gray-robed Taoist looked at Shen Zhao as if he were looking at a demon, and he was trembling with fear.
"Don't tell?"
Upon hearing just two words, the gray-robed Taoist felt as if his heart was about to stop, and the life in his eyes gradually faded.
After a long silence, he finally spoke slowly: "I had no intention of offending you, and I beg you to spare my life."
"Tell me your purpose in the Central Region, and I might consider letting you go."
"This matter has nothing to do with you. I thought you would ruin our plans, so what I just said was just a misunderstanding."
"Misunderstanding? Ha..."

"What are the specific plans?"
"I don't know. I was just one of the executors, responsible for sending Di Feijing to Song Yanran to bewitch the Empress. The one who was really in charge of this plan was Elder Haoyue."
Where is he/she?
"I don't know, but Elder Yue will definitely appear at the Empress's wedding ceremony."
"Yes, you're very cooperative."
"Can you let me go now?"
"Okay, since you're so sensible, I'll let you leave with some dignity."
