Pei Yan had a thousand guesses about what Li Songtao would look like now, but when he actually saw him, he was surprised to find that Li Songtao wasn't as miserable as he'd imagined. Though he was pale and disheveled, hanging from the torture device, there didn't seem to be any external injuries. He even had the strength to curse at him.
Seeing him so spirited, Pei Yan finally let go of a heart that had been hanging in suspense. He walked forward without speaking and, amidst the shocked gazes of the crowd, directly grasped his jaw and took out a fragnt of origin, prepared long ago and identical to controlling fiends. He stuffed it into Li Songtao's mouth without caring whether he could swallow it. One hand held his mouth while the other hamred his stomach; after several such blows, Li Songtao couldn't resist any longer and had no choice but to swallow the thing in his mouth.
"What did you make him eat?" An elder nearby finally reacted and urgently questioned.
Pei Yan glanced at this stranger he had t once before, then looked at Gu Shenghui, and saw him stepping forward to introduce, "Pei Yan, this is Cao Jiu Zhou from the Clear Wind Talisman Transformation Sect. Elder Cao has been sent by the Immortal Palace as the person in charge to assist with this interrogation."
"Oh!" Pei Yan nodded, turned around, and saluted Cao Jiu Zhou, then shrugged helplessly, "This is my last trump card. If he doesn't confess after eating this, then I won't ddle in the interrogation anymore. After all, this is the extent of my capability in this aspect."
"He won't die, will he?" Cao Jiu Zhou, having witnessed Pei Yan's brutal temper several tis, saw that Pei Yan gave him an explanation out of courtesy, and didn't criticize further but asked quite worriedly.
"He won't." Pei Yan finished speaking and placed his hand on Li Songtao's abdon, feeling the power of origin within him respond to his call. Then he rubbed his abdon constantly, channeling source energy into him, slowly dissolving the fragnt and sending the six pathways of origin throughout Li Songtao's limbs and bones. During this, although Li Songtao didn't know what Pei Yan was doing, he knew it couldn't be anything good. Unable to move his body, he hated the young man in front of him, cursing him and occasionally spitting at him. However, Pei Yan, having so composure like wiping one's face and ignoring insults, turned a deaf ear and completed all the tasks in his hand before stepping back a few steps and exhaling a long breath.
Taking the tissue handed by i Simiao, Pei Yan wiped the dirt from his face and remarked disdainfully, "At this point, is there any use in doing such things? Don't you find it petty?"
"Hahaha, what a victor's declaration; then you tell , if you were tied up here and saw your enemy, what else could you do beyond this?" Li Songtao sneered and taunted after a sarcastic laugh.
Pei Yan turned his head and thought for a while before nodding in agreent, "Indeed, so by learning from you, I should try my best not to end up like this!"
"Kid, the vicissitudes of life are unpredictable. Today, I, Li Songtao, did encounter misfortune and fell into your hands, but don't be too happy too soon. Soone will avenge ; all I have suffered today will be exacted hundredfold on you and yours soday!" Li Songtao looked at everyone present, roaring hysterically with eyes wide open.
Facing Li Songtao, who was spitting madly amid his frenzy, Pei Yan took two steps back and sighed, "Alright, alright, I've said such things to others more than once, and more than once, others have said them to . Li Songtao, you and I weren't born to be frightened, just as you said, the world is unpredictable. What happens next depends on who among us can laugh last. But whether I can laugh last, you don't know, but I know you definitely can't."
After saying this, Pei Yan snapped his fingers at Li Songtao, triggering the six paths of origin that had infiltrated his body. For a mont, the intense pain interrupted his attempt to retort. Li Songtao only felt unending pain from inside out, sotis as if plunged into an ice cellar, sotis as if his whole body were being scalded by flas, sotis an unbearable itch like a bone-attached maggot, and sotis as if millions of steel knives were tearing his body apart.
"Is this all you got... Ah!"
Watching Li Songtao convulse violently and rattle the chains as he was tornted by imnse pain, Pei Yan sighed at how he was tougher than those demon clan elders but increased the turmoil of the origin within him. This multiplied tornt imdiately choked back the latter half of Li Songtao's words, replaced by endless screams of misery.
Five minutes later, a basin of cold water was poured over Li Songtao's head. He slowly awoke from his fainting state and looked at Pei Yan in front of him as if he'd seen a demon, only hearing the latter start to speak, "I could actually keep this up forever, keeping your consciousness constantly awake to endure such pain, without even the chance to pass out. But I'm not a demon after all. If you're willing to confess, then we'll be fine. If you're not, haha, then you're of no use to . Making you suffer before you die isn't much of a loss to either."
"If I confess, will you let go? Won't it still be death?" Li Songtao lowered his head, his hair soaked with sweat and cold water clinging to both his temples, dripping downward, with a tone devoid of his previous arrogance.
"That's not necessarily the case. As long as you provide with the intelligence I want, your life or death is unrelated to . Although I won't release you, I'm also not inclined to kill you. You will be returned to the Immortal Palace in exchange for Suhabaru, which interests more. As for whether your trendously powerful uncle can rescue you alive from the Immortal Palace, it's up to your luck. But all of this hinges on you giving the intelligence I want. Do you understand?"
"What do you want to know? Ask away." Li Songtao looked up at Pei Yan then lowered his head again, resigned, unwilling to endure the pain he'd just suffered again. This kind of tornt from soul to body and from source energy to flesh has pushed his limits, forcing him to temporarily choose to yield.
"Tell what you all are really trying to do?" Upon hearing these words, Pei Yan and everyone in the room brightened up, and i Simiao couldn't wait to step forward and question eagerly.
Li Songtao heard this and raised his head, looking disdainfully at Pei Yan, sneering, "Then you might as well kill !" Then he turned his gaze to Pei Yan, with desperation and a trace of crafty provocation in his eyes, "Use your thod to torture to death, let's see if you can extract that information from my mouth." After speaking, he turned his head, leaning it onto his shoulder, coldly watching the crowd without saying another word.
Seeing that Li Songtao had loosened up, yet suddenly beca firm, Pei Yan, feeling played, couldn't help but get angry and was just about to trigger the origin again to teach him a profound lesson when soone held down his shoulder.
