Chapter 247: 147. He has his own method for interrogation_2.
The sword light was bright and piercing, illuminating the warm night.
The three figures who attacked like shadows and lightning suddenly felt an inexplicable panic in their hearts.
For some reason, even though Xu Yuan had not yet made a move,
and the aura emanating from his body did not seem particularly strong, they felt an inexplicable increase in the pressure weighing on their hearts.
It was as if under that seemingly unremarkable sword, there were countless soul spirits of the same rank as them.
On the mysterious man's face, they saw an aura as if he could slay gods and demons alike.
"Attack! Don't be afraid!"
The Leopard Woman gritted her teeth and growled.
The traces of thunder carried on her claws became even denser.
She really did not believe it—everyone was a Demon Beast of the same rank, could it be that he could really kill her in one shot?
With the three of them combining their strength, and bursting forth with their Innate Divine Abilities, they could hold off even a Great Demon at the Great Perfection stage of Core Formation for a number of rounds.
"You seem to have misunderstood something."
But no sooner had she steeled her resolve than the next moment, it turned into overwhelming fear.
Because this voice had sounded right beside her ear.
If that was truly the case, then it meant that he...
The light from the sword flashed, just once.
The Leopard Woman just felt a chill on her face, as if some liquid had splashed onto it.
She instinctively stuck out her tongue to lick it and looked down, only to see that her proud arms had vanished without a trace.
"Roar!"
Only at this moment did her mind register the intense pain coming from her arms.
"Ah! My arms! My arms!!!"
Xu Yuan sheathed his sword with a calm and composed air, strolled past her, and, pointing his sword at the ground, said indifferently, "It's your turn now."
The two exchanged a look, seeing only fear in each other's eyes.
In their view, everything seemed so eerie.
The sword-wielding mysterious Beast Clan member merely stood in place and swung his sword lightly.
The Leopard Woman who was still at a great distance from them just moments ago got pulled up close in an instant, and her arms were severed forcibly.
"This demon cannot be matched! Flee!"
The next moment, they simultaneously chose to turn around and run.
Only then, when they fiercely tried to sprint away, did they realize—their heads were gone.
"Ah?"
Xue Lin, who had just crouched down and was ready to spring forward, looked at this eerie scene and then glanced at Xu Yuan, who seemed to have never moved from his spot, feeling rather clueless.
"What happened to them?"
"I don't know, perhaps it's because your clan members are protecting you in some mysterious way."
Xu Yuan spoke lightly, his expression hinting at a slight surprise.
Just now, he seemed to be standing still doing nothing, but in fact, he was using an Illusory Realm, applying different effects to everyone present.
Then, using the Sword Control Technique, he hurried over and drew his sword on each of them.
Thus, the situation appeared completely different in the eyes of each individual present.
The innate ability of Xuanwu, along with the soul of Vermilion Bird, had augmented the effects of the Illusory Realm he could manipulate, making them even stronger.
If it were the past, he definitely wouldn't have been able to precisely create different illusory scenes for each person that even Core Formation stage cultivators would not detect.
After all, creating multiple illusions that could deceive Core Formation cultivators without them noticing requires considerable mental energy.
"Really?"
Xue Lin looked at him sharply, "Then why did that shameless ugly woman look so scared of you?"
"Perhaps she recognized what race I am. If I were really that strong, I would have resisted when you tried to eat me this afternoon, wouldn't I?"
Xu Yuan chose to hide the fact that his strength had fully recovered.
But this was not because the opponent was a naturally superb creature, nor because Xue Lin was sufficiently soft.
Mainly, she still lacked the ability to protect herself, and Xu Yuan worried that if he told her about his strength, she might become embarrassed.
Moreover, he had not yet fully regained his ability to protect himself.
That's why he took such an action.
"Is that so? Then what about that slap just now?"
Xue Lin still looked half skeptical.
"That was our Unicorn Clan's Secret Technique, hitting a cow across a mountain."
Xu Yuan casually made up an answer.
After all, the Unicorn Clan might very well be extinct; they can't exactly jump out of the ground to contradict him, can they?
"Is that so?"
Xue Lin still seemed somewhat skeptical.
"Of course, if you don't believe me, I swear on the honor of the Unicorn Clan..."
Xu Yuan thought for a moment,
"No need!"
Xue Lin hastily said, "I, I believe you..."
She hadn't finished speaking.
The next moment, the Leopard Woman, who had lost her arms and was kneeling on the ground, let out a scream of terror.
Her demonic power had been sealed by Xu Yuan when he severed her arms just moments before.
"That was Sword, Sword Qi! You are a human!"
Xu Yuan: "..."
Xue Lin: "..."
Looking at Xue Lin who turned her head to silently gaze at him.
Xu Yuan, with an unchanged expression, simply said, "She is trying to drive a wedge between us. This is the heartland of the Demon Clan. How could I, a human, possibly cross the Two Realms Mountain to get here?"
After all, Xue Lin had never seen a human before, so he wasn't worried about being exposed by her.
Besides, his Unicorn Clan identity was given to him by her.
It didn't make sense for her to choose to believe the words of an enemy over her own judgment.
"That's true."
Xue Lin thought for a moment and immediately nodded.
Two Realms Mountain is the border between the human and demon territories, where masters of both clans often battle and kill each other, and from there to her current location is far...
She didn't know exactly how far, just that it was very far.
If Xu Yuan really had come all that way, it didn't make sense that he wouldn't have been discovered.
"Damn it, shameless woman, even at the brink of death, still trying to sow discord between us."
Thinking this, Xue Lin grew even angrier, her bright silver fangs grinding together as if she wanted to devour her whole: "I'm going to eat you!"
"Wait!"
Xu Yuan sighed, extending a hand to stop her.
"Don't you want revenge? Won't you ask her?"
"Ask what?"
Looking at the girl's confused expression, Xu Yuan sighed, "Aren't you curious why the Thunder Leopard Clan and Wind Tiger Clan suddenly joined forces?"
"That's also true, I almost forgot."
Reminded by him, Xue Lin suddenly realized.
"But will she tell us?"
She scrunched up her cute little face: "I've heard the Thunder Leopard Clan are stubborn warriors, never surrendering to the enemy."
"You are also known as Momentary Rin."
Xu Yuan teased, "As for how to make her willingly tell us, I have a plan."
He didn't even resort to torture, but instead held the gleaming tip of the sword to the rear of the Leopard Woman, preparing to give her an unforgettable millennial death, when her initially stubborn expression instantly turned pale, almost doubting her judgment, mistaking Xu Yuan for that terrifying Hyena Clan.
It wasn't that she was afraid of death, but the kind of punishment that starts like this had unimaginable torture to follow, which she dared not envision.
To avoid unbearable humiliation later and opt for a confession, she chose to suffer less.

"What do you want to ask, just say it."
The Leopard Woman no longer held any hope of surviving, only hoping the other party would torment her less afterward.
"Why did you suddenly join forces with the Wind Tiger Clan to attack the Snow Wolf Clan?"
With Xu Yuan's first question, the Leopard Woman began to stutter.
"Not going to talk, huh?"
"Wait, wait a moment!"
Xu Yuan was waiting for just this moment, when the Illusory Mirror had quietly activated again.
He wasn't very knowledgeable about torture, but he had his own method for extracting the answers he wanted, especially from females.
Then, he turned his head and looked at Xue Lin.
"Xue Lin, I need to use something from you."
"What thing?"
As she displayed a bewildered expression, Xu Yuan reached towards...
"Ugh!"
Xue Lin's eyes widened, her small face instantly flushing red.
"You, you... what are you doing?"
This time, Xu Yuan did not answer right away, instead, he brought the fresh fluid to the stupefied Leopard Woman's mouth.
