"We've indeed tried every possible means, but Huo Hengxuan is being stubborn. He even endured the punishment of washing and combing his hair, but he still refuses to say anything..."
Li Hongling was silent for a while, and finally spoke when the adjutant was about to kneel down.
"Continue the trial."
"Uh, if I continue to torture you, I'm afraid..."
Li Hongling narrowed her eyes and looked at the starry night sky.
The city below was brightly lit, and outside the city there were shouts of killing. The magical lights of the practitioners appeared and disappeared from time to time, and it was obvious that they were engaged in a fierce battle.
"Let's try him one last time. If he still doesn't speak..."
"Chu Wenruo has enjoyed herself long enough. Now that the person has been fished out, let's...interrogate our honorable Madam Liang."

She turned her head and saw a man and a woman coming up the stairs.
The man looked middle-aged, dressed in a white shirt, with an elegant and refined look, and was waving a blank folding fan in his hand.
The woman was wearing black clothes and a green veil, her face was blurred, only her eyes, from under the green veil, revealed a cool and flowing light like water.
Hearing this, she looked calm and said in a light tone:
"General Li misunderstood. I just wanted to see how you conducted the interrogation. I had no intention of interfering."
