Book 07 Chapter 030: Interrogating Ao Sheng

Teacher Yinyue?

When Gu Hai heard this name, his expression suddenly changed as he recalled what Chang Ming had said.

Long Sanqian appeared at the Silver Moon Mountain Manor. Old Mister Guan Qi had been paying attention to the Silver Moon Mountain Manor?

Soul exchange?

Besides Gu Hai, the others’ eyelids twitched wildly.

“Of the cultural cultivations, the Go Dao is horrifying. The music Dao is also very strange.” Kong Xuan raised his eyebrows, looking shocked.

“Alright. We have already found the spy. Go back first. We’ll wait for Meng Tai’s interrogation results,” Gu Hai said.

“Yes!” Then everyone departed.

Gu Hai watched the six leave, frowning heavily. He did not feel relaxed after finding the spy. Instead, he turned graver.

“Milord, they captured Ao Shun. Meng Tai brought him back to the Embroidered Uniform Guard’s headquarters. It looks like they tossed him in jail,” an official reported with an unsightly expression.

“He moved really fast. Two hours? Just two hours?” Sima Changkong said, grimacing.

“Then…what should we do now? Should we send our people to save Ao Shun?”

“There’s no need to rush. No one is to take any action. Gu Hai is so smart; how could he not be wary? It is practically impossible to take away someone he is keeping an eye on in Borderless Heavenly Capital,” Sima Changkong said coldly.

“Then Ao Shun, he…”

“There will be an opportunity. Wait for me. Wait until I lure Gu Hai out of Borderless Heavenly Capital before saving Ao Shun,” Sima Changkong said.

“Yes!”

That evening:

Meng Tai walked into the emperor’s study with an unsightly expression.

“Your Reverence. He…he refuses to say anything,” Meng Tai said grudgingly.

“You got nothing?” Gu Hai asked.

“He only admitted to being Ao Sheng but nothing else. This official did not dare be too extreme in my interrogation,” Meng Tai said with a bitter expression.

Gu Hai frowned at Meng Tai.

Meng Tai showed an unsightly expression. This is just a minor matter, but I failed to handle it. Am I too incapable?

“Your Reverence, give me three days. This official will get everything three days later!” Meng Tai swore.

“There’s no need. Go back and prepare. We will come and personally interrogate him later,” Gu Hai said.

“Yes!” Meng Tai answered.

After Meng Tai left, Gu Hai remained alone in the study. Gently tapping his finger on the table, he showed a grave expression.

Whoosh!

Black energy appeared out of nowhere and gathered, forming Chang Ming’s appearance.

“Your Reverence, this official sent people to infiltrate the Silver Moon Mountain Manor. However, there is no way in. The Silver Moon Mountain Manor is tightly guarded, including many zombies.” Chang Ming frowned.

“Zombies? Unable to enter? It’s normal, then. Indeed, the Silver Moon Mountain Manor allied with the Wu Imperial Dynasty,” Gu Hai said coldly.

“Yes! Should this official continue?”

“We need to continue monitoring them. Since the Blood Uniform Guard cannot enter, we can only think of other methods. We will send other people in,” Gu Hai said after some thought.

“Yes!”

“Continue to send people to monitor Gu Qin, Mo Yike, Gao Xianzhi, Kong Xuan, and Chen Tianshan. However, there’s no need to be so strict about it. Just collect information about their daily lives,” Gu Hai said seriously.

“Ah? Your Reverence, didn’t you find the spy already?” Chang Ming’s face sank.

“Don’t ask too many questions. Just monitor them. Immediately report to us if there is anything strange!” Gu Hai said seriously.

“Yes!”

“Is there one of Ao Shun’s followers in the city, going by Little Lin?” Gu Hai asked.

“Yes. He adored Ao Shun greatly in the past. When Ao Shun became the prime of the Han Nation’s dragons, he turned his back on Ao Sheng and followed Ao Shun. He should be Ao Shun’s greatest supporter,” Chang Ming explained.

“Bring him here. Don’t harm him, and don’t expose him to others,” Gu Hai instructed.

“Yes!” Chang Ming answered.

“Go on, then!”

Chang Ming left.

Soon, another person arrived. It was the Mosquito Daoist.

“Your Reverence!” The Mosquito Daoist bowed respectfully to Gu Hai.

The Mosquito Daoist recognized Gu Hai’s strength after seeing him defeat Sect Master Heavenly Access. Furthermore, he found the spy in a mere two hours. This showed how capable Gu Hai was, so the Mosquito Daoist was exceedingly respectful of him.

“Mosquito Daoist, we have a mission for you,” Gu Hai said seriously.

“Oh?” The Mosquito Daoist showed some misgiving.

Two hours later, Embroidered Uniform Guard’s prison:

Ao Shun was chained to a large torture rack. Many hooks gripped his body, wrapping around his bones. He had countless lash marks on his body, and his blood stained his clothes.

“Hahahaha! Meng Tai, you dog of Gu Hai, kill me if you can! Gu Hai, kill me if you can!” Ao Shun roared ferociously.

“Speak quickly!”

A guard held a whip as he stood in front of Ao Shun. The guard moistened the whip with a medicinal liquid, then struck Ao Shun.

Gu Hai and Meng Tai stood in front.

Gu Hai stood with his hands behind his back, looking coldly at Ao Shun.

Meng Tai turned a deaf ear to Ao Shun’s insults.

“Your Reverence, you’ve seen it. He refuses to speak,” Meng Tai said with a bitter smile.

Gu Hai coldly eyed Ao Shun. “Ao Sheng, you are very tight-lipped. However, do you know it will all end if you die? No one will grieve for you.”

Ao Shun looked back at Gu Hai coldly.

“Humph! Gu Hai, falling for your trick is my failure. I hate that I did not kill you back in the Thousand Islands Sea. Would there be this day had I killed you then?” Ao Shun roared coldly.

“Fact is, you can’t kill us. Where is Ao Shun?” Gu Hai said coldly.

“Him? Hahahaha! His Reverence and I surrounded and trapped him the moment we returned from eight hundred thousand years in the past. I do not know where he is now. No one knows!” Ao Sheng sneered.

“Then you exchanged souls?” Gu Hai said coldly.

“Humph!” Ao Sheng snorted coldly.

“Go on and hit me if you want. I won’t say anything. Just kill me!” Ao Sheng sneered.

“Do you think we don’t dare to?” Gu Hai said coldly.

“Humph! If you kill me, Ao Shun will die too. If you want him to die, then kill me! His Reverence will level Borderless Heavenly Capital sooner or later. I will be saved then. Hahahaha!” Ao Sheng guffawed maniacally.

“Do you think we care about Ao Shun?” Gu Hai said coldly.

“Hah! Stop pretending. I will not let you trick me again. You spent a lot of effort to recruit Ao Shun. Can you bear for him to die?” Ao Sheng sneered.

“Bring a sword over!” Gu Hai said.

Meng Tai immediately complied.

“Then let’s see whether we dare to or not,” Gu Hai sneered.

As Gu Hai spoke, he swung the sword down on Ao Sheng.

Ao Sheng’s face sank. However, he felt confident Gu Hai would not dare to kill him.

Phish!

Gu Hai chopped off Ao Sheng’s left arm.

“Ah! You! You really dare?!” Ao Sheng yelled in pain.

“Are you willing to speak now?” Gu Hai asked with a cold smile.

“You-you-you are still trying to trick me? You did chop off the left arm. However, you can reattach it after you find Ao Shun. Hahahaha! As long as I don’t die, your schemes will never succeed!” Ao Sheng sneered.

Gu Hai snorted coldly. Then he sent out a manifested palm with a flip of his hand, smashing it on that arm. With a dull squelch, the manifested palm relaxed. The arm had been crushed to a pulp.

Ao Sheng: “…”

“How am I going to reattach it now?” Gu Hai smiled coldly.

“Meng Tai, feed the meat to the dogs!” Gu Hai commanded.

“Yes!” Meng Tai responded. He quickly scooped up the meat pulp and brought it out.

“There’s no rush. We can take our time. The right arm comes after the left. Then there are still the two legs and the body. We will chop them off one by one, smash them to pulp piece by piece, and feed the dogs. Let’s see when you will speak. What other secrets are there in the Wu Imperial Dynasty? What other experts in the Spirit Mountain Holy Land colluded with you?” Gu Hai asked coldly.

“If I die, Ao Shun’s physical body will be destroyed. His soul will die too!” Ao Sheng said coldly.

“We know. Are you still unwilling to speak? Again!” Gu Hai said coldly.

Boom!

Gu Hai chopped off Ao Sheng’s right arm and smashed it to a pulp. Then Meng Tai quickly collected the mangled flesh.

“Argh!”

Ao Sheng bellowed in pain.

“How is it?” Gu Hai said coldly.

“Gu Hai! Gu Hai, Ao Shun remained loyal to you. You will die a horrible death!” Ao Sheng roared in a rage.

“We will give you one night to think about this. If there is still no answer tomorrow…you know what we are capable of,” Gu Hai said coldly.

As Gu Hai spoke, he walked out.

After having two arms chopped off, Ao Sheng showed horror on his face. He discovered for the first time how ruthless Gu Hai could be. Defying such a person was extremely horrifying.

Meng Tai and the Embroidered Uniform Guards did not dare to interject as they respectfully sent Gu Hai out of the prison.

A hall in the Embroidered Uniform Guard’s headquarters:

The other Embroidered Uniform Guards did not dare approach this hall. Meng Tai stood guard outside, not daring to enter.

Only Gu Hai stood in the hall.

Extending his hand, he took out two arms and carefully placed them in a crystal box. These were the arms he chopped off earlier; he had not crushed them to a pulp. Before smashing his manifested palm down, he had hidden the two arms and replaced them with meat pulp.

“This crystal box has a ritual array on it to preserve the arms. Store it carefully,” Gu Hai said.

Buzz!

A black mosquito in front instantly transformed into the Mosquito Daoist’s appearance. Then the Mosquito Daoist carefully received the crystal box.

“Your Reverence, are we going to release this potential danger and follow him back to find Ao Shun?” The Mosquito Daoist’s eyes lit up.

“That’s right. Hopefully, it will succeed. Remember: do not act rashly, no matter what. Focus on rescuing Ao Shun as the priority,” Gu Hai said seriously.

“Yes! Your Reverence, don’t worry!” the Mosquito Daoist answered.

“Take this bottle of liquid. If you see Ao Shun, drip them on where his arms were chopped off. It should help him reattach his arms,” Gu Hai said, taking out a small bottle.

“This is? Yes!” The Mosquito looked at that small bottle with amazement.

The small bottle contained Mending Heaven Energy meant for fixing Ao Shun’s arms.

“Go on, then. Be careful. Someone will rescue Ao Sheng two hours later. Turn into a small mosquito and hide by his side; don’t expose yourself. Be very careful,” Gu Hai instructed solemnly.

“Yes!” the Mosquito Daoist answered.

The Mosquito Daoist carefully put everything away before his figure flashed, turning into a mosquito the size of a sesame seed. Then it flew out of the hall. Meng Tai and the others did not notice it.

After the Mosquito Daoist left, Gu Hai called Meng Tai in.

“Your Reverence, everything has been arranged,” Meng Tai said respectfully.

“Yes. Come to our study to receive a punishment tomorrow.” Gu Hai nodded.

“Yes, Your Reverence!” Meng Tai said while hiding his joy.

Punishment? His Reverence is going to send someone to break into the prison. Then I should feign negligence, letting Ao Sheng escape?

Meng Tai did not worry about making such a mistake, as this was the emperor’s trust in him.
