C739 Imprisoned
"Rumble..."
The battle came and went quickly. A demon beast with an ancient bloodline had an overwhelming advantage amongst its peers. Dongfang Sheng was lying on the ground in a weird position. There were many fractures on his body, and he was on the verge of death.
"Wouldn't it be over if I went back with Lord Xiong earlier? Must Lord Xiong do it himself? Are you looking for trouble?"
Shaking Bear grabbed Daoist Priest Dongfang in his palm and said in a muffled voice.
"Eh? What are these..."
It had already completed its mission, but its gaze was unconsciously attracted by the scenery on the ground. The commotion just now had caused the cave in the back mountain of Evergreen Sect to collapse. Dozens of women fell into panic. They were covered in dirt and dirt and looked miserable, but even so, it couldn't conceal their natural beauty.
This demonic bear was born with a cruel nature. Although it had been tamed by humans, it still subconsciously licked its lips when it saw a woman with such fine skin and flesh. It was hungry...
It muttered, "Master told me not to make too much noise, but this priest knows the five elements magic. If it had some skill, it would be difficult to deal with without using the heavenly phenomena. In order to not leave any survivors, I might as well kill these unimportant people along the way! "
Its words did not avoid the humans on the ground. The faces of these women and the surviving disciples of the Evergreen Sect turned pale as they prostrated themselves on the ground and kept kowtowing.
"No, Lord Demonic Bear, we didn't see anything. We are innocent!"
"Please forgive us, Lord. That Daoist Dongfang deserved to die. If Lord can spare our lives, the Evergreen Sect is willing to build a temple for Lord Dongfang and worship him day and night."
"Lord, I have old men and young men..."
...
There was no point in begging for mercy, even though there was a rule in the Heaven Realm that demons were not allowed to cause trouble in the territory of human cultivators. However, the origin of this demonic bear was too great. Behind it was a Holy Transformation demonic beast - Meng Ji. Even if its master blamed it, Meng Ji would not really punish it for his sake.
After all, it had completed its mission well. It only ate some unimportant low-level cultivators, so it wasn't worth the effort.
A gust of wind blew past, and the entire Evergreen Sect had turned into ruins. Not a single human figure could be seen. A wisp of red blood flowed out from the corner of the bear's mouth. It burped and flew away while riding on the demon cloud...
A week later...
In the Luoshui City's dungeon, a prisoner who looked like a beggar was locked on a torture instrument. His long hair was in a mess, and he had been tortured to the point of losing his human form.
"Bastard! Do you still dare to not tell me what happened today?"
"Tell me, what is the relationship between you and Shen Qingfeng? He is a saint, how could he be a scum like you? If the truth is true, I can leave your corpse intact, otherwise..."
Yu Qing was wearing a python robe, and he had returned to his previous glory. The task of investigating the suspects happened to fall on him. He climbed up from the bottom, step by step. He naturally knew a lot of ways to torture people, so he walked through them all in one go. Even a Divinity Transformation Stage cultivator would be tortured to death.
"I'll talk... I'll talk..."
"I don't know Shen Qingfeng. I bought it from a remote town. The one who sold me that young man was a pair of stupid brothers. They were the hunters of the mountain village. You guys go to the local area and check. I gave them three hundred taels of silver. "
Who would have thought that the once insufferably arrogant Dongfang Sheng would fall to such a state? He was like a completely different person from before. His entire body was covered with injuries, and his messy hair clearly carried fear and numbness.
"Interesting. Three hundred taels of silver is enough to buy a Holy Transformation? Or a Holy Transformation that can match the young master of the Ye Family?"
"Brother Dongfang, why didn't you pull me into this kind of business? I'll buy a cart, do you have any more goods?"
Yu Qing's expression changed like he was flipping a book. He held a three meter long whip in his hand, and with a bang, he threw it on Daoist Dongfang's body, leaving a deep bloody wound that could be seen through bone.
"Oh... My lord, I was wronged!"
"Everything I said is true. If you don't believe me, you can go and investigate... I beg you, don't torture me anymore... "
Dongfang Sheng wanted to cry but had no tears. Although he had obtained a good inheritance in the ancient tomb, it was nothing compared to the Ye Family, one of the eight families in the Heaven Realm.
Now that he was imprisoned in the dungeon of Luoshui City, if the other party refused to let him go, he was afraid that he would never see any light again.2
"Beat him up! If you can't do it, use your spiritual pill to save him and continue interrogating him."
"Isn't his bones hard? I would like to see how long you can..."
Yu Qing threw the whip to his underling and walked out with big steps. There was a miserable wail behind him.
"Elder brother, is this Old Daoist Dongfang lying to us? Could it be that he really took all the responsibility and kept his mouth shut to prevent Brother Shen's whereabouts from being exposed?"
Wang Hou had always been by Yu Qing's side. Ever since Shen Qingfeng revealed his Holy Transformation cultivation base, Yu Qing had been more fond of him than ever, and he had been trying his best to nurture his opponent's abilities.
"This... I don't think so. Maybe he really doesn't know Shen Qingfeng's identity."
"No matter how I guess, how did the two mountain hunters manage to hunt down a Holy Transformation and sell him to a human trafficker?"
"But this has nothing to do with us. It is something that the higher-ups need to worry about. We just need to follow orders."
Yu Qing pondered for a while, but he still told the truth about his guess. Once a person was unlucky, they would be forced to drink cold water.
In his opinion, Daoist Dongfang was just an unlucky person.
