You are lying.
Tian Ning gave him a gentle smile, which seemed like a devil to the man.
Damn it!
How could he forget that he made a vow to Heaven while in the dungeon, promising to tell her everything he knew, no matter what she asked?
There is a loophole in this oath of Heaven: if Tian Ning doesn't ask, he can remain silent.
This way, they could keep certain secrets from Tianning that he was completely unaware of.
But if Tianning asks, he'll be struck by lightning if he lies...
The man secretly despised her; what a treacherous girl!
"Where did I say something wrong?" Tianning asked again.
The man clearly didn't want to talk about it.
But he didn't expect that even exceeding the time limit wouldn't work. If he didn't answer Tianning's question within a certain time, God would immediately reward him with a bolt of lightning!
? ? ?
But Tian Ning was a scoundrel; if he couldn't get an answer, he would keep asking. Even if he was struck by lightning and was half-dead, it didn't matter. He would force a handful of top-grade pills into his mouth and immediately be fully revived.
man:"……"
What kind of living Yama is this?!
Are all alchemists outside this terrifying these days?
Top-grade healing pills are being fed to people handful by handful, like candy beans?!
Of course, to avoid being discovered, Tianning would move with the men every time she was struck by lightning, so the Xuanyuan family patrol team, which was sent to investigate the Heavenly Blessing, was kept in the dark for a whole day without finding anything.
"What on earth is going on? Even a powerful being undergoing tribulation wouldn't behave so strangely!"
Frustrated by the repeated questioning, Xuan Yuan Cheng kicked a pebble at his feet. He'd been chasing for so long and hadn't found anything. Which powerful figure was so bored and hiding on Xuan Yuan's territory?!
However, as a patrol team, they cannot overlook any abnormalities.
Little did they know, all of this was thanks to Tianning!
After being struck by lightning countless times, the man could no longer bear it and said in humiliation, "I'll talk!"
Tianning sat quietly and listened patiently.
"This is the past I least want to recall..."
The man's face contorted in pain: "Do you have to be so cruel as to reopen my wounds? Don't you know that making me talk about it is worse than death?!"
Tian Ning: "I have always been kind."
Hope ignited in the man's eyes.
Tianning: "If you really don't want to talk, I'll send you to your death."
man:"……"
Seeing Tian Ning skillfully begin to take out top-grade healing pills, and about to ask the question again, the man's limbless body trembled, and he stopped delaying, honestly confessing:
"Actually, the Xuanyuan Cheng you mentioned is my biological older brother."
Tianning: "..."
You look older than your age.
"I know that someone like me, who looks neither human nor ghost, is indeed hard to compare with him... but he's just a thief who stole what belonged to me to live the life he has now!"
The man made no attempt to hide the hatred in his voice.
Have you ever heard of conjoined twins?
"That's how it is between him and me."
"Because he was born with the bones of a sword, he was chosen by Xuanyuan Hengzhi. In order to turn him into a normal child, it wasn't enough to just forcibly separate us, who were conjoined... Xuanyuan Hengzhi also cut off my arm and leg, which originally belonged to me, so that he could live in the sunlight, while I could only eke out a living in the dungeon, constantly being fed drugs that forced my body to grow. Only by constantly sowing seeds and demonstrating my value could I survive..."
"Isn't it ridiculous? Born from the same mother, both are clearly monsters, yet they are worlds apart!"
