"Hehe, the so-called honey torture involves feeding the victim a lot of honey until he gets diarrhea. Then, honey is smeared all over his body, including his eyes, ears, mouth, face, and a certain part of his body!"
"My lord, what is this?" Xiang Yu asked, puzzled. "This is hardly a punishment."
"I haven't finished yet!" Lin Mo grinned. "Finally, we'll find a bamboo raft, tie the prisoner to it, and let it drift down the river!"
At this moment, Lin Mo looked at the assassin and said, "Brave warrior, the scent of honey will attract a lot of insects. These insects will keep stinging your body, and some small insects will even dig into your exposed flesh."
Then you will develop gangrene, and your body will gradually rot away. The process of feeding you honey will keep you alive for a while; it's said you can live for up to ten days.
These words sent chills down the spine of the lone wolf assassin!
The image of endless suffering had already surfaced in his mind.
"Tell me and you'll let me go?" the assassin asked uneasily.
“That depends on what you say!” Lin Mo replied.
The assassin pondered for a long time before finally speaking, "Our Lone Wolf's alpha wolf has personally ordered the taking of your head!"
"Oh?" Lin Mo stroked his chin. "That's not what I wanted to ask. What I wanted to ask was... Xuanhua Palace."
"Xuanhua Palace?" The assassin was startled. "Is he also from Xuanhua Palace? Is he your lord?"
"If it weren't for the Venerable Master of Xuanhua Palace, who would possess such formidable strength?" the assassin thought to himself.
“He Xiao? No!” Lin Mo smiled. “Get up. I haven’t seen Lord He for a long time!”
No? The assassin was shocked again.
There really is such a powerful figure in this world? A powerhouse comparable to He Xiao!
"So what do you want to ask?"
"You just said that people from Xuanhua Palace have all come to Dongpango?" Lin Mo asked.
“Yes!” the assassin replied. “According to reliable sources, the Lord of Xuanhua Palace arrived in Dongpango three days ago with all the disciples of Xuanhua Palace.”
"What happened between you and Xuanhua Palace?" Lin Mo asked. "Otherwise, why would He Xiao bring all his disciples here?"
"I don't know the specifics!" the assassin replied. "What I do know is that Master Yao of Xuanhua Palace is dead. The Lord of Xuanhua Palace believes that we, Lone Wolf, killed Master Yao."
"Revenge?" Lin Mo frowned.
“That should be it!” the assassin said. “However, the actions of Xuanhua Palace this time are very unusual!”
"Oh? Tell me, what's unusual about it?"
"The way they killed my Lone Wolf disciples was very dishonorable!" the assassin said.
"Light?" Lin Mo asked, puzzled. "Does an assassin need to talk about light when killing someone?"
"No, that's not what I meant!" Lone Wolf's assassin tried to explain. "The way they used it was unpredictable, not close-quarters assassination. For a moment, I didn't know how to describe it."
Upon hearing this, something suddenly flashed through Lin Mo's mind.
"The ancient methods!" he blurted out instinctively. "He Xiao went to find that Elder Gu!"
Thinking of this, Lin Mo's thoughts became even more chaotic.
If it was about revenge, why didn't He Xiao bring his own disciples? Why did he go to Elder Gu for help instead?
What exactly happened during this period?
Does this mean that all of He Xiao's disciples are dead?
Such analysis is not unfounded.
Because when Huo Minggao rebelled, Xuanhua Palace also rebelled.
However, during that period, Lin Mo did not encounter any assassination attempts by Xuanhua Palace assassins.
Strange things kept happening one after another.
Lin Mo glanced at the assassin subconsciously and could tell that he had confessed everything he knew.
Perhaps we should ask He Xiao in person to get to the bottom of this.
After taking a deep breath, Lin Mo ordered, "Xiang Yu, you know what to do."
"Ah?" The assassin felt a chill run down his spine; he had already guessed the outcome.
Xiang Yu turned around, swung his Chu halberd, and swiftly slit the assassin's throat.
The rain kept falling, showing no sign of stopping.
"My lord, there are too many troubles. How about we..." Xiang Yu suggested.
After leaving the illusory realm, he lost his memories of his time with Zhao Wushi.
In his view, the journey to the Forbidden Sea was completely unnecessary.
The immediate priority should be dealing with the invasions from various enemies.
"No!" Lin Mo refused. "Let's set off. We need to get to the Forbidden Sea as soon as possible."
With that, he left the room, mounted his horse, and rode off into the rain.
Xiang Yu frowned, but had no choice but to follow closely.
Two days later, at dusk, Lin Mo arrived at Oda Castle, the main castle of Tokugawa Iemochi!
What Lin Mo needs to do is to eliminate the Tokugawa Iemochi clan and all the retainers who are loyal to the Tokugawa family!
