Chapter 1181: Connecting Torture
"Hurry up." Zhou Wen continued.
Time is limited, and there is no time for Li Xuan to slowly cultivate his body here.
To ordinary people, the oil pan punishment seemed to have obeyed Zhou Wen's orders and time had accelerated.
But Ansheng was born different and could see some ethereal creatures. He could see the white-clothed ghosts who were carrying out executions.
When they first saw them, they were just slowly putting firewood that humans couldn't see into the bottom of the pot. But after seeing Zhou Wen, the two ghosts in white were immediately frightened and trembling. Following Zhou Wen's order, they quickly added firewood to the bottom of the pot.
The same thing happened in the sawing room just now, which surprised An Sheng. He didn't know how Zhou Wen did it.
"It turned out to be the right decision to wait for Young Master Wen to come along. With him and Li Xuan here, the chances of rescuing Madam Lan safely are much greater this time. I hope Madam Lan and the others can hold on until we get there." An Sheng thought to himself.
A minute later, Li Xuan, who had completed the oil pan torture, came out. Because An Jingyu and Lu Bushun were both attracted by this side, Lu Bushun had not yet entered the third torture room to be tortured.
"If you don't go in, I'll go in first." Li Xuan smiled at Lu Bushun, then entered the third torture room, the nail room.
There were 108 feet long iron nails in the nail room. The punishment was completed only when all the nails were nailed into the body.
After Li Xuan entered, his body was immediately stretched out and trapped against the wall. Then a nail flew towards his left hand. On the other side, a hammer hit the back end of the nail hard, driving the nail into Li Xuan's palm, which was directly pierced through.
"Ah!" Li Xuan screamed and cursed, "It hurts so damn much!"
"It will pass if you bear with it." Zhou Wen comforted the tortured ghosts while calling them to hurry up.
I saw nails flying up one after another, and the hammer was swung continuously, quickly nailing into Li Xuan's body, causing Li Xuan to scream in pain.
In just over a minute, all 108 nails were nailed into Li Xuan's body, and one nail was nailed into his little tail. The pain made Li Xuan's face turn green.
Fortunately, although he screamed miserably, his injuries did not seem serious. After he came out, the wounds on his body had healed automatically and there was no visible trace of the injury at all.
Zhou Wen couldn't help but feel a little envious. Although he also had a certain self-healing ability, it was far worse than Li Xuan's.
There was no time to stay here, Zhou Wen and Li Xuan continued to move towards the next torture chamber.
"General, should we continue?" An Sheng asked cautiously.
Zhou Wen and Li Xuan were faster than them. If they could survive all the punishments, there would naturally be no need for Lu Bushun and the others to continue.
An Tianzuo looked at Lü Bushun, but before he could say anything, Lü Bushun pleaded, "General, although Li Xuan's self-healing ability is strong, it may not be stronger than mine. Besides, it's hard to say whether he can endure all the punishment in his condition. If he fails, we won't have time to start over. Please let me continue."
After Lu Bushun finished speaking, he looked at Li Xuan's back, his eyes full of determination.
"Okay, let's continue." An Tianzuo nodded slightly.
"General, please rest assured. Bu Shun will never bring shame to our Sunset Army." After saying this, Lu Bushun strode towards the nail room.
Li Xuan and Lu Bushun were tortured at the same time, and experienced the tortures in the torture room one by one.
The self-healing abilities of both of them were terrifyingly strong. Others would be in danger of death if they experienced even one torture, but they tried it one after another without suffering any serious damage to their bodies.
The only difference is that Li Xuan screamed every time, but Lu Bushun endured it from beginning to end. No matter how painful the punishment was, he didn't make a sound.
Everyone watched them go down the torture chamber one after another. By the time the doors closed, both of them had endured twenty or thirty different kinds of torture. But every time they came out, their injuries had almost healed. Everyone thought that there shouldn't be any serious problems and they would definitely be able to endure all the tortures within a day.
But Zhou Wen knew very well that things were not as simple as they imagined.
The punishment here only harms the body; there's also damage to the soul and spirit. This damage accumulates over time, eventually leading to a mental breakdown. Li Xuan and Lü Bushun's physical recovery abilities are no problem, but whether they can hold out to the end remains a question.
However, Zhou Wen still has great confidence in Li Xuan. Although this guy looks frivolous on the surface, his mental fortitude is actually far beyond that of ordinary people.
Back then, when he was extremely furious, Li Xuan was able to restrain himself from killing Li Mobai. Being able to do that under such circumstances, Zhou Wen believed that he could survive.
Because the torture chamber would not open again until an hour later, Zhou Wen and the others stood on the long street to rest.
When Zhou Wen was resting, his eyes intentionally or unintentionally glanced at a torture room at the back. That was the torture room for the Trojan Horse torture. According to the current progress, Li Xuan should enter that room in the next hour.
"Old Zhou, I've made such a huge sacrifice this time, shouldn't you show some appreciation?" Li Xuan said to Zhou Wen.
"What do you mean?" Zhou Wen asked back.
"I have everything I need, except a useful companion pet. My requirements are not high. Just get me a fear-level companion pet." Li Xuan was actually joking when he said this, and he didn't take it seriously.
"Okay." Zhou Wen agreed immediately.
"Is this true? You have a fear-level companion egg?" Li Xuan was slightly stunned, then laughed, thinking that Zhou Wen was joking with him.
A fear-level companion egg is not something you can get just by trying.
Not to mention that the fear-level dimensional creatures are all in those terrifying dimensional realms. It is not easy to kill them. Even if you can kill them, they may not drop companion eggs.
"Then don't worry about it. I will definitely get you a fear-level companion pet, but we have to agree that you must help me complete this trip to Huangquan City." Zhou Wen said.
"What? You don't have confidence in me? And you use this trick to encourage me?" Li Xuan said dissatisfiedly.
"Just tell me whether you can finish the journey or not." Zhou Wen knew that as long as Li Xuan could finish the journey, he would definitely help him. He just wanted to take this opportunity to give Li Xuan a companion pet.
"Absolutely no problem." Li Xuan said confidently.
Lu Bushun and others were a little skeptical of what he said. Li Xuan's miserable cry was still echoing in their ears.
"Okay, give me your hand." Zhou Wen said.
"What? Do you want to read my palm?" Li Xuan stretched out his hand and looked at Zhou Wen in confusion, not knowing what he was going to do.
Zhou Wen placed his hand on Li Xuan's hand and directly activated the art of stealing the sky and replacing the sun.
