Chapter 934 Obedient Dog
Shi Heng's eyes flashed, and his soul power suddenly burst out. A powerful pressure instantly enveloped the entire dungeon.
The man from the You clan trembled and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, but he still gritted his teeth and refused to surrender.
Seeing this, Shi Heng stepped forward, his eyes as sharp as a hawk, and said coldly: "I think you should know that this is Buli City, not the You Clan. In this dungeon, we have plenty of ways to make you talk. Don't ask for trouble."
Luo Li narrowed her eyes slightly, and a sharp sword energy brushed across the cheek of the You clan member, leaving a shallow blood mark.
The man from the You clan suddenly shrank his body and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.
"I'll give you one more chance." Luo Li's voice was emotionless. "How much does Jiuchongtian know? And what are they planning to do?"
The other member of the You clan seemed a little shaken. He opened his mouth and was about to say something, but was glared at by the previous member of the You clan, and swallowed the words back.
Seeing this, Luo Li sneered: "It seems that you won't cry until you see the coffin."
She turned to look at Shi Heng and Luo Yuanxiu and nodded slightly.
Shi Heng understood and formed seals with his hands. A black talisman flew out from his palms and wrapped around the people of the You clan.
The people of the You clan suddenly screamed in pain and their bodies began to twitch uncontrollably.
"I'll say... I'll say..." Finally, the man from the You clan who had been wavering before couldn't hold on any longer and shouted in a trembling voice.
Luo Li raised her hand to stop Shi Heng, her eyes fixed on the You Clan member: "Speak now, if you tell even a single lie, you know the consequences."
The You Clan member panted heavily and said with difficulty, "We are only here on orders to investigate your identity and confirm the matter of the Phantom Spirit Pearl. We really don't know anything else!"
A hint of coldness flashed in Luo Li's eyes. She leaned forward slightly, staring at the You Clan member, and said word by word, "Under orders? Under whose orders? Jiuchongtian only sent a few of you to investigate? Do you think I would believe it?"
The You Clan member's scalp tingled under Luo Li's gaze, and he hurriedly explained, "Really...really, we're following orders from Elder Youye. The Nine Heavens seem to attach great importance to the Phantom Spirit Pearl, but they're not sure the news is true, so they sent us here to investigate. Once confirmed, there will definitely be major actions to follow, but we, the minions, really have no way of knowing what they will be!"
Luo Yuanxiu stepped forward, his voice deep and powerful: "Elder Youye? What is his position in the Ninth Heaven? To what extent was he involved in this operation?"
The You Clan member swallowed and replied, "Elder Youye was originally an elder of our You Clan. He was promoted to a divine messenger over three hundred years ago. He now holds a high position in the Nine Heavens and is in charge of intelligence.
This time we entered the city at night and did not leave. He personally arranged for us to sneak in and said that if anything unexpected happened, someone would be there to pick us up."
Shi Heng crossed his arms and asked coldly, "Where are the people who will pick us up? How many are there?"
The You Clan member looked troubled and hesitated for a moment before saying, "We only know there's a rendezvous point in a dense forest ten miles outside the city, but we don't know the exact number of people or who will be the rendezvous."
Luo Li straightened up and exchanged glances with Luo Yuanxiu and Shi Heng. A trace of thought flashed across the eyes of all three. Then, Luo Li looked at the You Clan member and asked, "What is the attitude within the Nine Heavens towards Buli City and the Phantom Spirit Pearl?"
The You Clan members were almost crying. "Sir, we are only here because of orders. Even if we die, they will send new people. Apart from telling us our mission, we really don't know anything else!"
Luo Li frowned slightly, a hint of impatience flashing in her eyes. She stared coldly at the You Clan member and said in a bad tone, "Since you don't know anything, it seems there's no point in keeping you."
As she spoke, she slowly raised her hand and approached the person from the You Clan.
The You Clan member turned pale with fear, and shrank back desperately, his chains rustling as they were pulled. He cried out in a tearful voice, "Sir, please spare me! This is all I really know!"
But...but I heard that it's not just the Nine Heavens, many other forces are coveting the Phantom Spirit Pearl and want to take it for themselves. They think that Buli City is just a small place and nothing to be afraid of. As long as they get the Phantom Spirit Pearl, they can flatten this place at any time!"
When Luo Yuanxiu heard this, his aura suddenly became fiercer, and the fluctuations of his soul power became stronger. He gritted his teeth and said, "These arrogant people really think that they can flatten Buli City at will?"
"That's just talk," Shi Heng waved his hand. "Bulicheng is now considered a first-rate force in the Northern Alliance. If they want to attack Bulicheng, they'll have to think twice."
Luo Li narrowed her eyes, "That's probably all they know. Lock them up here. I'm going to go out for a while."
Shi Heng and Luo Yuanxiu looked at each other and said, "Okay."
Luo Li returned to her own yard and slipped into the Chaos Jade.
Euan sat cross-legged in the Chaos Jade. As the breeze blew by, he felt the long-lost breath.
Luo Li looked around and her eyes finally fell on An who was sitting cross-legged.
"You're here." Euan's voice was calm and cold, as if he had already anticipated her appearance.
Luo Li walked over with her arms folded and said calmly, "The You Clan sent people to investigate my whereabouts before I left the city. What do you think?"
An's eyes flickered, but he still didn't react much. "The You Clan sent someone to look for you. Has your identity been exposed?"
Luo Li raised her eyebrows, "That's not the case. A few days ago, I got something that Jiuchongtian cared about, so Youye sent someone to inquire about me."
Euan frowned, "Youye, it's him again..."
Luo Li looked down at him, "Was it this You Ye who sent you to Tianyuan Continent?"
An nodded slightly, a subtle complex expression flashing across his face. "It was him. He was the one who sent me to the Tianyuan Continent to carry out the mission."
He raised his head and met Luo Li's gaze, his eyes burning with anger. "You Ye is extremely sinister and cunning. Not only is he a powerful figure in the You Clan, he's also a divine messenger from the Ninth Heaven. He's ruthless and will do anything to achieve his goals."
Luo Li rubbed her chin thoughtfully, "It seems that the You Clan and the Nine Heavens are indeed an inseparable alliance."
"What a joke," An stood up, emitting a powerful aura. Although suppressed by the Chaos Jade, he was still not to be underestimated. "What alliance? In the eyes of Jiuchongtian, the You Clan is nothing but an obedient dog!"
When Luo Li heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She didn't expect that An had such a strong opinion on the relationship between the You Clan and the Jiuchongtian.
