Chapter 258: Chapter 258 Interrogating Secrets

"Zi Yan, Li Guang, keep an eye on everyone for me." Instead of saving them, in the hopeful gaze of Senior Sister Ye and the others, Chu Feng restrained all the capable people present.

Then he ordered Zi Yan and Li Guang to guard them.

The relationship between Zi Yan and Chu Feng wasn’t bad, and they had already established a preliminary trust. Without hesitation, she drew her sword and approached Senior Sister Ye and the others, her face cold, exuding a faint killing intent.

She didn’t even ask what Chu Feng intended to do.

Even though the team consisted of eleven members, the only one she truly trusted was Chu Feng alone.

Liu Qiang and Han Dong sensed that something was amiss. They exchanged looks, both uneasily watching the approaching Chu Feng.

"Junior Brother Chu, I know I was wrong to steal your credit. I accept any punishment or beating, but I ask you to spare me for the sake of being in the same sect," Liu Qiang feigned calmness, trying to change the subject.

"Do you think I’m concerned about such trivial matters?" Chu Feng looked mockingly at Liu Qiang, then turned his gaze to Han Dong, "You seem more honest, so let’s start with you!"

Having said that, Chu Feng directly grabbed Han Dong by the waistband and dragged him toward the nearby woods.

He clearly intended to interrogate Han Dong and Liu Qiang separately.

Every move he made was shrewd and wise.

"How is this kid better than those old freaks who have lived for a thousand years?" Liu Qiang and Han Dong were shocked and looked fearfully at the grim-faced Chu Feng.

They couldn’t figure out Chu Feng’s strength and had no idea what Chu Feng might have found out.

Interrogating them separately would prevent them from corroborating their stories.

This move was extremely ruthless.

As soon as either of them lied, Chu Feng would instantly notice.

"Chu Feng, let me go, what on earth do you want?" Han Dong yelled.

"Shut up, if you dare to scream again, I won’t mind slaughtering you," Chu Feng said with a face full of killing intent. Stunned by his terrifying gaze, Han Dong didn’t dare to say any more.

His eyes rolled around, thinking of what to say to deal with Chu Feng.

"Chu Feng, I don’t care what you’re planning, just hurry up and release the restriction on me!" Senior Sister Ye commanded in an authoritative tone.

She still thought of herself as the high-ranking Steward.

Just now, she was shivering in fear before two vicious Rashamon Sect disciples, yet she addressed Chu Feng with the demeanor of a superior, imperiously giving orders as if he were her servant.

"If you dare to utter another word, I won’t mind taking you to the grove for a private interrogation first!" Chu Feng’s face turned fierce, frightening Senior Sister Ye into complete silence.

However, she was also furious, her delicate body trembling violently.

Looking at Chu Feng, her eyes blazed with rage, wishing she could chop Chu Feng into mincemeat.

What a bastard! Merely an ordinary disciple, yet he dared to be disrespectful to a Steward of the Sect.

Chu Feng took Han Dong into the grove, and after what seemed like enough time for a meal, he finally came out.

But he did not bring Han Dong back.

The group had heard Han Dong’s screams earlier, and now there was silence; they didn’t know if he had been killed by Chu Feng.

At that moment, they realized that Chu Feng was even more terrifying than the two dead Rashamon Sect disciples.

Except for Zi Yan, everyone looked at Chu Feng, who seemed like a demon, with trepidation and fear.

"Liu Qiang, it’s your turn now!" Chu Feng said as he picked up Liu Qiang and walked off.

"You, what did you do to Han Dong?" Liu Qiang was so scared he was beside himself, chattering his teeth. The eerie atmosphere, combined with Chu Feng’s display of coldness and ruthlessness, was almost too much for Liu Qiang to bear.

"Heh heh, didn’t do much, just sent him off to meet King Yan."

Chu Feng wore a ferocious grin as he tossed Liu Qiang onto the ground.

With a sharp eye, Liu Qiang noticed that there was quite a lot of fresh blood scattered in the small grove, some of which hadn’t yet coagulated—clearly the blood that had spurted out when he was being tortured.

"Speak up, what exactly is your relationship with Han Dong?"

The Crimson Flame Sword in Chu Feng’s hand was pressed against Liu Qiang’s throat.

"You’d better not lie; otherwise, your little life is certainly not safe," Chu Feng threatened in a cold voice.

Liu Qiang’s eyes betrayed his cunning; he didn’t know what exactly Chu Feng might have gotten out of Han Dong. He proceeded to try to coax more information from Chu Feng cautiously.

"My relationship with Han Dong is simply that of... Aargh—spare me, spare me!" Liu Qiang had barely gotten out the words "simply that of in-laws" when Chu Feng’s Crimson Flame Sword already pressed down harder. The next second would turn Liu Qiang into a resentful spirit.

Only then did Liu Qiang realize the severity of the situation.

He was certain that Chu Feng must have obtained plenty of useful information from Han Dong.

"My relationship with Han Dong is a partnership!" Liu Qiang dared not continue to lie.

"Why the partnership? What are you planning to do?" Chu Feng didn’t give Liu Qiang any time to think, immediately pressing for an answer.

"We, us..." Liu Qiang’s eyes darted around, trying to come up with some trickery.

Chu Feng’s sword sank abruptly, and Liu Qiang let out another scream, blood already showing.

"In front of me, you’d better cut the trickery. Unless, of course, you want to take your secrets to the grave," Chu Feng warned Liu Qiang coldly. "Next time, I won’t be merciful."

Liu Qiang was already frightened, and after experiencing Chu Feng’s ruthless methods, he was even more terrified.

"Han Dong, he said he knows a safe route into the Sword Tomb’s Demon Suppression Tower. That’s why I partnered with him. We agreed that once inside the Demon Suppression Tower, it would be every man for himself in snatching the treasures within," Liu Qiang finally divulged the truth.

Many people knew about the Sword Tomb, but very few knew about the Demon Suppression Tower.

Chu Feng was greatly exhilarated by getting the answer he wanted.

"You trust Han Dong that much? What if he’s just bluffing?" Chu Feng pressed further.

"I can be 100% certain that Han Dong really knows that secret route. Because Han Dong has a map, passed down from his ancestors. His ancestor, Han Xiangzi, was a super strong person of the Ancient Era. He personally participated in suppressing that demon, so he knew the route to enter the inner parts of the Sword Tomb’s Demon Suppression Tower," Liu Qiang asserted with certainty.

It appeared that in order to convince Liu Qiang, Han Dong had shared with him the map and the identity of his ancestor.

No wonder Liu Qiang was secretly protecting Han Dong.

"Heh heh, Han Dong, that map of yours must be hidden on you!" After extracting useful information from Liu Qiang, Chu Feng slashed open the trees behind him. Instantly, Han Dong’s body was revealed.

However, Han Dong was not dead but had been restrained by Chu Feng, with a bloodied piece of cloth stuffed into his mouth.

Unable to make a sound.

Han Dong’s body was covered in wounds, having been subjected to brutal torture. But he had proved much tougher than Liu Qiang, revealing very little information.

Even when Chu Feng was about to kill him, he refused to divulge a single word.

But never in his wildest dreams had he imagined that Chu Feng’s methods would be so astounding. His pig-headed teammate—Liu Qiang—after just a bit of interrogation by Chu Feng, gave away all the information he would defend with his life.
