Lin Xiuyuan's body, which was hanging in the air, suddenly stiffened, and cold sweat instantly covered his back.
He stared at Jiang Muyao with wide eyes, and his already dry throat began to tighten.
"Miss Jiang, what do you mean?"
All kinds of thoughts flashed wildly through Lin Xiuyuan's mind.
Suddenly, he remembered that Jiang Muyao was first famous for her ability to read faces.
But, there is no organized cover-up on my face...how could it be?
Jiang Muyao took out a copper coin and flicked it lightly with her fingertips. The coin made a crisp buzzing sound.
It drew an arc in the air and landed precisely on the center of Lin Xiuyuan's eyebrows.
There was a crisp "ding" sound.
Lin Xiuyuan only felt a piercing pain on the top of his head, which made his facial features twisted and he couldn't help but groan.
Chu Xiaoxuan curiously leaned forward and vaguely saw a flickering tattoo on Lin Xiuyuan's neck.
After seeing the tattoo, Jiang Muyao knew that she was right. She had felt that Lin Xiuyuan had a strange face since the first time she saw him.
It seems that there should be more than one person in this so-called Xuanmen, or there may be people from their department in the Supernatural Bureau.
Lin Xiuyuan knew very well that Jiang Muyao had seen through him from the very beginning.
Knowing that he had been exposed, his instinct for survival made him ignore everything else and he quickly begged for mercy with a trembling voice.
"Jiang Muyao, no Master Jiang, I was forced... I really had no choice..."
Jiang Muyao walked slowly to Lin Xiuyuan and said with a smile:
"Forced? Ha, did someone hold a knife to you? Tell me, how were you forced?"
Lin Xiuyuan opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he didn't dare to speak.
He knew in his heart that he was going to die anyway.
Jiang Muyao has the country behind her. If she is caught by the country, she may have a chance of survival, but if her identity is exposed and her superiors know about it, she will definitely be dead.
But he couldn't confess even if he wanted to, after all, everyone in the organization was infected with the soul-eating insect.
As long as the thought of revealing a secret comes into one's mind, the insect will immediately attack and kill the person instantly.
Jiang Muyao looked at him quietly and asked calmly:
"You thought of it? Why don't you speak?"
Lin Xiuyuan's face was filled with pain, and he even started crying as he said:
"It's not that I don't want to speak up, it's that I can't say it..."
Jiang Muyao just stared at him straight, her eyes full of deep meaning.
Lin Xiuyuan was frightened by the stare, and suddenly he realized something.
His Adam's apple rolled up and down, and his heart was shocked. He had just thought about so many things about betraying the organization in his mind.
The soul-devouring insect didn't even attack. He stared at Jiang Muyao with hope and fear in his eyes.
This woman actually suppressed the Soul Devouring Gu...
"you..."
"Can you really protect me from death?"
In fact, the copper coin that Jiang Muyao flicked out at the beginning was not just a test.
The copper coin came with a spell that she had studied for a long time, which was specifically used to restrain the soul-eating insect.
In the past, every time we caught someone related to this, before we could even start asking them a few questions, they would die from the attack of the soul-eating insect.
Jiang Muyao raised her fingertips, and the copper coin penetrated a little deeper into his brow:
"You have no right to bargain with me!"

There were footsteps outside the house, and Chen Lingfeng and the people from the Supernatural Bureau had arrived at the door.
They received news from Jiang Muyao and learned that the supernatural forces here had been eliminated. Jiang Muyao asked them to take Lin Xiuyuan back for interrogation.
Chen Lingfeng walked in quickly with several agents from the Supernatural Bureau.
Seeing Lin Xiuyuan lying in a mess on the ground, Chen Lingfeng didn't even frown, but just saluted Jiang Muyao.
"Ms. Jiang, the car is ready, you go first."
Lin Xiuyuan looked ashen. He knew that his life was over, even though he had enjoyed a glorious life for half of it.
When the special handcuffs were put on his wrists, he actually felt relieved.
"etc."
Jiang Muyao called them and took out a yellow talisman and slapped Lin Xiuyuan on the back.
"This thing can make him tell the truth within three days."
Chu Xiaoxuan asked Jiang Muyao in the car.
"Sister Jiang, will he tell the truth?"
"He doesn't know much. I mixed something else into the talisman..."

In the dim room, Su Mingyue knelt on the futon, her brows slightly furrowed. Finally, she couldn't help but speak, her voice full of confusion:
"My Lord..."
"Why send Lin Xiuyuan to contact Jiang Muyao? With Jiang Muyao's ability in physiognomy, a face-to-face encounter is all it takes.
Lin Xiuyuan will be seen through..."
"What's more, the Lord specifically asked me to remove the concealment on his face. Why on earth was that?"
“Bang!”
A teacup flew towards her and the scalding water splashed on her face, but she didn't dare to dodge, let alone wipe it off.
"Are you questioning me?"
The man's voice was very soft, but Su Mingyue straightened her back instantly.
"I dare not..." Su Mingyue said fearfully with his forehead touching the ground.
The man stood up, walked to Su Mingyue, and patted her shoulder gently in a soothing manner.
The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a meaningful smile.
"Mingyue, have you read Sun Tzu's Art of War?"
The man leaned over and lifted Su Mingyue's chin with his cold fingers.
Su Mingyue's pupils shrank slightly.
"Killing someone with a borrowed knife is just a bad strategy!"
"The best strategy is to defeat the enemy's plans, the next best is to defeat his alliances... The best strategy is to defeat the enemy without fighting."
The man's nails scratched across her lips.
"Master, are you asking Jiang Muyao to be our sharp blade?
