745 Zhou Shuâs Counterattack (2)
Zhou Shu narrowed his eyes slightly. He seemed to understand Tang San, Tang Qi, and the othersâ schemes.
Any excuse would serve a tyrant!
âIn my opinion, the heaven and earth treasures were used by the Demon Realm to bribe you, right? For those things, you betrayed the human race and helped Demon King Hu Li break through to the Demon King realm. You even cooperated with them to help demonic beasts invade the human continent,â Tang San said coldly. âUnfortunately, your actions canât be hidden from our eyes!
âZhou Shu, what else do you have to say now?â
Zhou Shuâs expression was calm. His gaze swept across Tang San, Tang Qi, and the others. âSince youâve already determined that I colluded with the Demon Realm, is there any point in saying anything?â
âThe only thing you can do now is to plead guilty and confess your crimes!â Tang Qi shouted coldly. âYou have to hand over the stolen goods you obtained from the Demon Realm!â
Zhou Shu was expressionless. He couldnât be bothered to speak anymore.
After the transaction with the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven failed, they used this method to frame him. Wasnât their ultimate goal for the Divine Stone?
âZhou Shu, itâs useless to resist. We already have conclusive evidence,â Tang San said coldly. âThere are witnesses and evidence. Your accomplicesâ in the Demon Realm have already confessed. The only thing you can do now is to confess obedientlyâŠâ
âConfess? Confess to you?â Zhou Shu said coldly. âWhat right do you have to make me confess?â
âOur Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven has protected the human race for thousands of years. We are qualified to kill anyone who betrays the human race and endangers the safety of the human race,â Tang San said coldly.
âZhou Shu, I see that you are a talent, which is why Iâm telling you so much. If you explain clearly, you might still have a chance of survival. Iâll plead for you and get the higher-ups to allow you to redeem yourself. In the future, you can stay in our Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven and make use of your forging skills. OtherwiseâŠâ
âThen, I have to thank you?â Zhou Shu sneered. âIâll hand over all my heaven and earth treasures to you and then work like a cow to forge for your Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven. What a good idea.â
âImpudent!â Tang Qi shouted. âOur Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven is giving you a chance!â
âYou should give this great opportunity to someone else. I donât need it.â Zhou Shu laughed coldly.
âDo you want to die?â Tang San stared at Zhou Shu coldly.
âOf course not.â Zhou Shu shook his head. âIâm afraid you canât decide my life and death yet.â
âIs that so?â Tang San said. âOur Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven protects the human race. We will definitely not show mercy to traitors.
âIf you think weâll let you off just because you have some ability, youâre wrong. Your accomplices are all under our control. If anyone resists, weâll kill them without mercy!â
âHow dare you!â Zhou Shuâs eyes flashed coldly.
âHaha, why wouldnât we dare to kill traitors of the human race?â Tang San laughed loudly.
Ding Dang!
Tang San casually threw something on the table in front of him.
Zhou Shuâs pupils suddenly contracted as he stared at the item on the table.
It was a longevity lock.
âWhat did you do to Xiaoyuâer?â Zhou Shuâs expression was extremely terrifying, and his eyes were brimming with killing intent.
Yin Wuyou had made the longevity lock for Xiaoyuâer. Xiaoyuâer had always worn it around her neck and treasured it so much that Zhou Shu couldnât even touch it.
âHmph, she tried to escape and was killed on the spot,â a man said coldly. âSo what if sheâs at the Grotto-Heaven realm? Our Xu Ling Grotto-Heavenâs Grotto-Heaven experts are much stronger than her.â
âDid you do it?â Before he could finish, a murderous voice sounded
Zhou Shu stared fixedly at him, the killing intent in his eyes incomparably rich. The chains on his body clanked as if they were about to break.
But the expressions of Tang San, Tang Qi, and the others didnât change at all. Instead, they were full of mockery.
âDonât waste your energy. You wonât be able to break free,â Tang San said coldly. âEven Grotto-Heaven experts canât break free from these chains easily, let alone you.
âWeâve already given you a chance. Iâll ask you one last time. Are you convinced or not?â
âI thought that although you grotto-heavens are mysterious, you are still humans. But I didnât expect you to be so shameless for your own benefit.â Zhou Shuâs expression was incredibly cold. âYou can even act so dignified when youâre murdering for treasures.â
âOur methods will be even more ruthless to traitors of the human race!â Tang San said coldly. âIt looks like you really donât know whatâs good for you.
âTang Shiyi, weâll leave him to you. I donât want him to have any secrets that we donât know.â
A man with a cold aura stood up. A smile appeared on his face, and he said in a hoarse voice, âDonât worry. I promise to make him confess everything, even the number of times he wet his bed when he was young.â
He grabbed the chains binding Zhou Shu and pulled him to the side.
Zhou Shuâs eyes were full of killing intent as he swept his gaze across Tang San, Tang Qi, and the others, memorizing them.
Tang Shiyi dragged Zhou Shu to a dark, windowless room. The room had all kinds of torture tools, and these torture tools were covered in dark brown blood.
The entire room was gloomy and cold.
Tang Shiyi tied Zhou Shu to a wooden stake with chains and said coldly, âIf you want to suffer less, youâd better confess as soon as possible.
âDonât even think about surviving my interrogation. Iâve interrogated martial artists with higher cultivation than you, but they still revealed everything.â
âDonât you just want the Divine Stone?â The anger on Zhou Shuâs face had already disappeared. Anyone familiar with him would definitely know what kind of anger was hidden under this calmness.
âIâm very curious. Is this Divine Stone really that important that your Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven is so shameless?â
Zhou Shu said calmly, âIf you can answer my question, I can give you the Divine Stone.â
âYouâre wrong.â Tang Shiyi shook his head and sneered. âOur Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven is protecting the human race. Taking back the Divine Stone from you is just a matter of convenience.
âIf the Divine Stone falls into the hands of demonic beasts, it will only bring disaster to the human race. Naturally, it canât stay with you, a traitor.
âAlright, you can tell me now. Where are you hiding the Divine Stone?â
Tang Shiyi rubbed his fists and smiled coldly as he picked up his torture tools.
âProtect the human race? Youâre really lying to yourselves,â Zhou Shu said coldly. âAlright, Iâll tell you where the Divine Stone is. Come closer.â
âOh? Youâre telling me so quickly?â Tang Shiyi said in disappointment. âI thought you would be a tough nut to crack.â
Then he took two steps toward Zhou Shu.
âCloser. Be careful that the walls have ears,â Zhou Shu said. âI hid the Divine Stone in a very secret place. Not only is there the Divine Stone there, but there are also many other good things. I canât let others know.
âYou donât want the treasures to fall into the hands of others, do you?â
Tang Shiyi nodded. âYou know your place. Itâs a pity I wonât have the chance to use my skills this time.
âBut youâre thinking too much. No matter how loudly the sounds are in the torture chamber, no one outside can hearââ
âIn that case, Iâm relieved.â Zhou Shuâs tone suddenly changed. His hands, which he had pulled out of the chains at some point, slammed them into Tang Shiyiâs chest at lightning speed. With a tsunami-like force, he smashed Tang Shiyi to the ground.
