Chapter 279 Forced Confession



As the group recounted the events to Xia Xiang, Feng Chu slowly awoke.

"You! You! This is too much!" Fengchu struggled incessantly, trying to activate a formation to escape, but she found that she had no internal energy left.

"What have you done to me?! Let me go!"

"Shut up!" Xia Xiang sneered. "Right now, I'm the butcher and you're the fish on the chopping block, understand?!"

Sun Shangxiang, Guan Yu, and Pang Tong: ? ? ?

“That’s not what I mean. I provide the knife and cutting board, and you provide the fish. It’s like two close friends agreeing to have sashimi together, praising their deep friendship. That doesn’t quite fit our current situation,” Sun Shangxiang said, pointing to the two groups.

Xia Xiang, Xiu: "!!!"

"Yes! That's exactly what I mean." Xia Xiang gritted her teeth and argued, "I'm reminding him not to forget your childhood friendship!"

"Friendship, my foot! Even if I like Sun Shangxiang, I don't like being tied up!" Fengchu said angrily. "And you, you crazy woman, you've been chasing me with a stick for days! What do you want from me?!"

"We're talking about you now!" Xia Xiang quickly changed the subject when he brought it up again.

"Speak! How did your family protect the Dark Scripture?! Why did Dong Zhuo use it?! Did you collude with Dong Zhuo?! Did the Pang family intentionally help Dong Zhuo seize the Han Dynasty?!"

"No! I don't even know Dong Zhuo, how would I know!" Seeing that she had brought the matter to this level, Feng Chu forgot that she was still angry and quickly explained. "If you let me go now, I will investigate this matter."

Sun Shangxiang quickly explained, "Auntie, Fengchu wouldn't do that."

She knew her aunt was mentally unstable, but she didn't expect her to be this insane.

Xia Xiang ignored him and drew her magnolia sword. "Even if your Pang family isn't with Dong Zhuo, you still failed in your duty. Since you won't talk, I'll cut you down first and send you to the underworld to apologize to your ancestors. Then I'll ask Dong Zhuo!"

"Auntie, calm down." Sun Shangxiang stood directly in front of Fengchu.

“Yes, Siwu, look at Fengchu’s state, he doesn’t know either. Let’s calm down and have a proper talk.” Guan Yu also chimed in, “Brother, please say something to persuade him.”

Xiu: ...I don't know what to say.

"Get out of the way!" Xia Xiang said, holding the sword horizontally with the tip slightly downward.

Guan Yu and Sun Shangxiang stood in front of Fengchu, waving their hands frantically, while Xiu stood aside, looking at the sky and the ground but refusing to look at them.

"I don't remember, I only remember there were a lot of people!" Feng Chu shouted with her eyes closed.

"Huh?" Sun Shangxiang and Guan Yu turned to look at him.

Xia Xiang also sheathed her sword, crossed her arms, and looked at him, urging him to continue.

But Fengchu became stubborn again, closing his eyes and refusing to speak.

"Repair..." Xia Xiang regretted uttering the word as soon as it left her mouth.

"Yes," Xiu replied instinctively, having also been lost in thought.

Sun Shangxiang, Guan Yu: (each) ? ? ?

Xiu: Oh no!

Xia Xiang immediately tried to cover up her mistake, saying, "Don't be so arrogant! Liu Bei, tell him what happened to the last person who dared to talk back when I was in his hands."

"That's not a good idea, after all, he's Ah Xiang... Miss Sun's friend." Xiu blurted out, then immediately corrected himself.

Sun Shangxiang: What's going on? You call me Ah Xiang in private, but Miss Sun in public?

"What could be wrong?" Xia Xiang threatened, narrowing her eyes.

"There's nothing wrong with it," Xiu said, taking out the itching powder that Xia Xiang had kindly given him as a gift.

"Itching powder will cause unbearable itching when it comes into contact with human skin. You will scratch your skin incessantly, to the point that the bone can be seen, and there is no cure."

"Judging from your current attitude, there seems to be no cure for Siwu. Are you sure you want to keep being stubborn?"

"That's too vicious! It doesn't sound very righteous," Guan Yu said, frowning. Noticing the stares of the crowd, he added, "I was talking about medicine."

"I like it, let me see it," Sun Shangxiang said with sparkling eyes, reaching out to take it.

"Ah Xiang, be careful." Xiu nervously stepped back, then took out a pair of laboratory rubber gloves for her to put on before handing her the things in his hands.

Xia Xiang, Guan Yu, and Pang Tong: ...
