The scorching hot iron touched Chen Jin's skin, emitting a puff of white smoke. The surface of his skin melted rapidly, turning completely black, with blood constantly seeping out from within.
If I had to start with any opening remarks, I'd say, "Let's skip the pleasantries and get straight to the torture."
Shen Ling stared unblinkingly, as if what she was seeing was just a minor scene.
The soldering iron has cooled down.
She then roasted it over a fire.
Once it's burning red-hot, press it hard onto Chen Jin's original wound.
"ah!!!!"
"ah!!!!"
The entire dungeon was filled with Chen Jin's screams.
"Ganlinniang!!!" When interrogating prisoners, they would first ask if the prisoner would confess. Only if the prisoner refused to confess would they resort to torture.
There's no such thing as just grabbing a soldering iron without saying a word.
Chen Jin looked utterly devastated.
Shen Ling knew that Chen Jin was a tough nut to crack, but she had plenty of ways to deal with him.
When Chen Jin's eyes were filled with "Are you a devil?"
She raised her eyebrows and smiled slightly, then asked, "Tell me, where is the Empress Dowager?"
...
Blood stained Gu Mu's black python robe.
Those people were determined to trap him inside the palace.
The officials huddled in a corner, watching as corpses littered the hall.
"Your Highness..." the prime minister said in an aged voice.
His Highness ordered them not to take a single step forward, but with so many people surrounding him, could His Highness really escape alive?
The prime minister wiped away a handful of turbid tears.
Is it... that his luck has run out?
The Minister of Revenue covered his eyes with his sleeve, unable to bear to look; he did not want to see the moment His Highness's head fell to the ground.
With so many people, this scene seemed inevitable.
"Your Highness..." he murmured.
Gu Mu's face was also splattered with blood, making him look quite terrifying.
The spear in his hand was like the scythe in the hand of death; whoever it pointed at would die.
The main hall was small and inconvenient to carry out.
Gu Mu was completely surrounded by rebel troops.
When he finally broke through the gate, a sword pierced straight into his abdomen.
The person who stabbed him struck the hilt of the sword with his internal force, and the sword, unstoppable, pierced through Gu Mu's abdomen.
At the same time, Gu Mu thrust his spear backward, piercing the heart of the swordsman.
The swordsman fell to the ground.
Gu Mu drew his sword, used his light footwork to lightly touch the ground, and flew out of the palace.
But with the enemy at the gates, the entire palace was surrounded by rebel forces.
As soon as Gu Mu stepped out of the main hall, countless archers aimed at him.
"shoot!"
At his command, arrows rained down on Gu Mu.
Several needles pierced Gu Mu's back.
Two more grazed his arm.
“He is seriously injured. Even if he is a peerless martial artist, he will surely be left here today.” Seemingly confident of victory, Eunuch Liu, who was by the Empress Dowager’s side, also appeared from the high platform with a smug smile on his lips.
"Where is the Empress Dowager? Why doesn't she dare to come out?" Gu Mu asked, looking at Eunuch Liu.
"If you're so confident, why are you hiding?" Gu Mu laughed heartily. "Are you afraid I'll blow her dog's head off with a single shot?"
In this case
Gu Mu believed that even if the Empress Dowager only showed half her head, he could still make her head explode.
Eunuch Liu's expression changed: "Kill him!"
If so, then yesterday General Chen Jin was still using the young emperor's name to cause trouble at the Prince's mansion.
Today, it's clear that the Empress Dowager wants to interfere in politics.
We'll wait until all the big fish come out, then catch them all in one fell swoop to prevent future troubles.
The fear is that there are still some hidden forces, lying dormant and impossible to discern.
Gu Mu was struck hard on the back again.
He finally understood that as long as he killed someone with his own hands, if it was a single shot, he would gain 1 villain point.
If you severely injure someone and then kill them, you get 2 villain points.
Gu Mu's spear was dripping with blood.
His villain rating increased by 167 points.
Villain rating: 350
Points: 230.
With so many points, as long as I break through the encirclement and reach a secluded place, I can exchange them for Body Strengthening Pills and Spirit Pills, and rely on their enhancement to restore my condition.
"Kill me?" A cold glint flashed in Gu Mu's eyes. He glanced at Eunuch Liu with a half-smile: "You can die first!"
Gu Mu charged toward Eunuch Liu with his long spear.
The area around Eunuch Liu was the most heavily guarded.
But, Gu Mu only needs to find an opportunity...
After being struck by three swords in a row, Gu Mu finally found this opportunity.
He drew his longsword from his waist and threw it far away.
This throw contained all of his inner strength.
It moved with unstoppable force, so fast that it was invisible to the naked eye, leaving only a streak of silver light in the air.
"Ah..." Eunuch Liu's head was blown off.
“Killing a eunuch and wasting a sword, what a disgrace.” Gu Mu smiled. “But who told you to be so tactless?”
"..." rebels.
From then on, the rebels only dared to fiercely besiege Gu Mu, and dared not utter a single word.
Gu Mu ran swiftly across the rooftops; those people were no match for his lightness skill.
Despite their large numbers, they were gradually left behind by Gu Mu.
"Chase him! He's badly wounded and won't live much longer!" Deputy Commander Wei shouted. "I want to see his body with my own eyes! All of you, chase after him!"
Those people relentlessly followed.
He made a great sacrifice in order to lure the snake out of its hole and catch more big fish.
Gu Mu sighed. Fortunately, killing people would earn him villain points, increasing his score, so it didn't seem like a complete loss...
After leaping over several rooftops and seeing that he had left the rebels some distance behind, Gu Mu jumped off the rooftops, no longer revealing his presence.
