Yu Lianzhou stopped and looked at Li Huan.
"Master Li, what are your orders?"
Li Huan said, "It's not your turn to deal with Song Qingshu now. I haven't found out the whereabouts of the Heaven Sword and the Dragon Saber yet!"
Yu Lianzhou nodded: "Please go ahead, Master Li."
Li Huan suddenly reached out and grabbed a paper cup from the table, poured the Sprite into his palm, and immediately used his internal energy to release extremely cold true energy, refining the Sprite liquid in his palm into thin ice flakes!
Upon seeing this, Song Qingshu's expression changed drastically.
He knew that the thin shard of ice in Li Huan's palm was a "life-or-death talisman" that struck fear into the hearts of many!
Last year at Bright Summit, Li Huan used the "Life and Death Talisman" to inject into the body of Xianyu Tong, the leader of the Huashan Sect, causing him unbearable suffering. He is still imprisoned and endures daily torment.
Without saying a word, Li Huan rushed towards Song Qingshu like an arrow and slapped his chest!
Song Qingshu turned to flee, but his lightness skill was inferior to Li Huan's. Li Huan struck him in the back with a palm, planting a "life-and-death talisman" in his back!
Thump! Song Qingshu fell to the ground, landing face-first in the mud.
Immediately afterwards, Song Qingshu felt an unbearable itch on the wound on his back, as if countless ants were frantically gnawing at it. The itch was accompanied by pain, and the pain was accompanied by numbness. He couldn't help but scream a few times.
Upon seeing this, Song Yuanqiao's eyes widened, and he muttered to himself, "Life and Death Talisman... Life and Death Talisman..."
Li Huan demanded sharply, "Song Qingshu! Who stole the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heaven-Reliant Sword! And who taught you the Nine Yin White Bone Claw?"
Song Qingshu rolled on the ground in pain, wailing all the while.
"I don't know... Ah... It hurts so much... Ah..."
Witnessing his son's miserable state, Song Yuanqiao's eyes flashed with heartache.
Li Huan said, "You won't confess honestly? Fine, enjoy the 'Life and Death Talisman' to your heart's content, I'll make you feel amazing!"
Suddenly, Song Qingshu knelt down, crawled to Li Huan's feet, and kowtowed repeatedly.
"Leader Li! I was wrong! I was wrong... I shouldn't have accidentally killed Uncle Mo, and I shouldn't have listened to Chen Youliang's instigation to join the Beggars' Sect and cause the death of Leader Shi..."
"I am worse than a pig or a dog, I deserve to die a thousand deaths! For the sake of my father being the leader of the 'Seven Heroes of Wudang,' I beg Leader Li to have mercy and give me a 'Life and Death Talisman' to alleviate my suffering... I beg Leader Li to have mercy..."
Li Huan said, "You still haven't told the truth. Who stole the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heaven-Reliant Sword?"
Song Qingshu's tears and snot mingled together: "I didn't steal it... I swear to God... I didn't steal it..."
Li Huan was immediately filled with emotion.
Although Song Qingshu was a morally corrupt person, he was truly infatuated with Zhou Zhiruo.
Even at this point, he still gritted his teeth and refused to reveal Zhou Zhiruo's identity.
I'd rather be a traitor to the Wudang Sect than a scumbag under a woman's spell.
I would rather betray the world than betray my goddess.
Li Huan clapped his hands and praised, "What a devoted little wolf king! He's already living a life worse than death, yet he still refuses to confess and protects the woman he loves!"
Song Qingshu suddenly raised his head, his face contorted and his features contorted in a ferocious expression.
Clearly, the itching and pain from the "Life and Death Talisman" had penetrated deep into Song Qingshu's internal organs.
"Kill me! Kill me... Ah... It hurts so much..."
Song Qingshu fell backward to the ground, continuing to roll and struggle.
"Master Li!"
Zhou Zhiruo suddenly shouted!
"It was I who stole the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heaven-Reliant Sword, and injured Yin Li!"
Everyone was shocked!
Zhang Wuji stared in disbelief: "Zhiruo, it...it really is you?"
Zhou Zhiruo said, "Last year at Wan'an Temple, my master told me the secret of the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heaven-Reliant Sword. Hidden within the sabers and swords are the Nine Yin Manual, the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms, and the Wumu Legacy!"
"From that moment on, I secretly vowed to obtain the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heaven-Reliant Sword, master unparalleled martial arts, command the world, and never again be bullied or manipulated by despicable villains!"
As she spoke, Zhou Zhiruo looked at her senior sister, Ding Minjun.
Li Huan knew that Zhou Zhiruo had been suppressed and ridiculed by Ding Minjun ever since she joined the Emei Sect.
Years of repressed life severely affected Zhou Zhiruo's mental health, prompting her to sow the seeds of hatred and develop the idea of dominating the martial arts world!
Therefore, when Zhou Zhiruo saw the Heaven Sword in Zhang Wuji's hand, and coincidentally was escorting the Golden Lion King Xie Xun back to the Central Plains, Zhou Zhiruo poisoned Xie Xun, injured Yin Li, and stole the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heaven Sword.
Li Huan suddenly asked, "Wuji, you possess the Nine Yang Divine Skill and are immune to all poisons. You shouldn't have been poisoned and unconscious that night. Why was the Heaven Sword stolen by Zhou Zhiruo?"
Zhang Wuji's face flushed, and he stammered, "Master... at that time, I... I was drunk..."
Zhou Zhiruo said, "That night on the island, I used sweet words to bewitch Zhang Wuji and drank with him. He was careless for a moment, which is why I stole the Heaven Sword!"
Li Huan understood and looked directly into Zhang Wuji's eyes.
"You little rascal, you've fallen for Zhou Zhiruo's beauty trap!"
Zhang Wuji looked embarrassed.
Zhou Zhiruo said, "I hid the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heaven-Reliant Sword in a cave on the island. After several dozen days, I returned to the island and took the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heaven-Reliant Sword!"
"Then, I used the Heaven Sword to strike the Dragon Saber, and the sword and saber broke apart. I obtained the Nine Yin Manual, the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms, and the Military Manual of Yue Fei."
Zhou Zhiruo looked at Song Qingshu, who was wailing.
"Master Li, Song Qingshu swore allegiance to me, which is why I taught him the Nine Yin White Bone Claw. Song Qingshu was not involved in stealing the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heaven-Reliant Sword!"
"Please, Leader Li, show mercy and give Song Qingshu a 'Life and Death Talisman' remedy to spare him from the torment of pain!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Wuji's eyebrows shot up.
