Chapter 1056: Better to Kill Him
The little mermaid was very nervous and stuttered when he spoke.
"This servant... This servant did not see Miss Yun delivering the elixir. It was Miss Yun who asked this servant to come here to deliver the elixir to the king.
The girl told me at the time that I must watch Wang swallow the pill before I can go back, otherwise she would kill me. I... was really scared and could only do as she said, thinking that the girl and the young master were such good friends and would not do anything bad.
But I didn't expect... the king actually died immediately...
Young Master, please spare me. I have really been used. I really don’t know anything.”
As she spoke, she burst into tears, looking extremely regretful.
Su Mu sighed and said to Yun Guiyue, "This was the interrogation this morning. I cried so hard that I almost fainted."
Yun Guiyue chuckled, "It's just an interrogation, it's not difficult."
She waved her hand, and two thick wooden sticks tied into a cross appeared behind the mermaid.
The soul-binding silk moved and tied the mermaid to it.
Doctor Lin was quite nervous. "Miss Yun, what does this mean? Are you trying to force a confession out of her?"
"Heh..." Yun Guiyue chuckled, "Why are you so nervous? I'm just tying him up. I haven't done anything yet."
After being tied up, the mermaid could no longer shed tears.
Fear and curiosity brought her back to her senses.
She was afraid that Yun Guiyue would kill her and was curious about what Yun Guiyue was going to do.
Yun Guiyue was much calmer than everyone imagined. She said indifferently, "Do you know what will happen if you frame me?"
The merman's body trembled slightly. "I don't know what frame-up is. I'm just telling the truth. You, a sinner of the merman clan, must atone for your sins to the king."
Yun Guiyue seemed to be completely oblivious to what she was saying and continued, "It's okay for me to tell you even if you don't know. Anyone who tried to frame me will now be unable to be reborn in the Six Paths of Rebirth, as they will all be annihilated by my divine fire."
"ha……"
The mermaid's face turned pale.
Almost subconsciously, she looked at Doctor Lin beside her.
After all, Doctor Lin said that he would save her life no matter what.
Yes, that’s right. Don’t be afraid of what an outsider says. You have to trust Dr. Lin.
The mermaid gritted her teeth and said, "No matter how you scare me or threaten me, it's useless. I will only tell the truth."
Yun Guiyue still ignored what she said and continued to ask, "Do you know what the consequences will be if you deceive the young master of your mermaid tribe?"
Yun Guiyue's words broke open the psychological defense line that the mermaid had just built up.
Yes, she is not afraid of Yun Guiyue, but what if it is the young master?
What would the young master do if he knew that she had lied to him?
Yun Guiyue saw the fear and panic in her eyes and turned to look at Su Mu, "You tell me."
Su Mu nodded and said, "According to the clan rules, he should be lashed with eighty to five hundred lashes. This matter is of great importance and is related to the cause of my father's death, so it must be five hundred lashes."
The mermaid's face turned completely pale.
Five hundred lashes...
You should know that the whips used by the mermaids for punishment are made of thousands of mermaid silk threads. They are extremely tough and extremely heavy with the blessing of black iron.
One whip can tear the skin and flesh apart, but if you whip him five hundred times, his face will be completely disfigured and bloody.
Not to mention the future path of cultivation, even his life cannot be saved.
Five hundred lashes is worse than direct death. At least it is a quicker death without so much torture.
