Master of Strange Dao

The people from the Yin Family immediately took out a Magical Treasure, threw it to the ground, and in an instant, a Sealing appeared, hiding the figures and breaths of the two of them completely.

Feng Buju unlocked the Sealing, and the fellow, who had been beaten half to death, opened his eyes, only to see the same few people.

Yu Ziqing then said.

"There's something I forgot to ask you, answer me before you continue sleeping."

"You say."

"You know the exact location of the Abyssal Rift you came from, right?"

"I do." The man didn't hesitate and described the location in detail.

Yu Ziqing glanced at King Xiang, and King Xiang looked at the others.

It couldn't be left to Old Yang to investigate, right? Feng Buju was still busy, Yu Ziqing had to interrogate; there was no one else free but him to go.

Without a word, King Xiang immediately flew out of the cave and headed straight for the location of the Abyssal Rift.

A moment later, King Xiang returned and nodded to Yu Ziqing.

Yu Ziqing continued the interrogation.

"Oh, another thing, are you sure that by climbing down that rock wall, you can directly enter the Sealing?"

"That's what I saw."

"Oh, then let me ask in more detail, did you see if each person had something as a beacon?"

The man didn't hesitate and shook his head.

"No."

"Then let me be more specific, like this thing."

Yu Ziqing took out a piece of Jinlan Ore, and the man's gaze trembled slightly.

Yu Ziqing smiled and said,

"I have heard a saying before, 'the true hunter often appears in the form of the prey.'

I have now truly realized that a fellow who appears to be the prey, using a mix of true and false words, concealed the most important one,

almost causing us all to falter; I find this lesson profound."

The man's face was filled with confusion and terror.

"I...I don't know what you're talking about; everything I've said is true."

"I know, the things you've said are mostly true; you've just concealed some key points.

I have seen Zhao Tiancheng, he was waiting for the Feng Family Master. At that moment, I wondered about something.

How could he be so sure that the Feng Family Master would definitely enter that Sealing?

Later I thought of you and suddenly understood.

Your existence is to inform the newcomers of some information, to give the Feng Family Master a beacon.

But after you saw the others, after you saw us, you weighed the pros and cons and chose not to reveal the most critical piece of information.

Without that information, there's a good chance the Feng Family Master couldn't enter the seal of that Evil creature.

Your schemes would then rely only on the Yin Family, but relying solely on the Yin Family might lead to failure.

It wasn't until I went in and saw that it was the former Jinlan Mountain that I understood, you were afraid of us from Jinlan Mountain entering,

Comparatively, you thought that people from Jinlan Mountain going in would make things worse than saying nothing and preventing Feng Buju from entering either.

If both heads of the Feng and Yin Two Families took action together, there would be a complete chance of success, just the Yin Clan has at most a sixty to seventy percent chance.

But with people from our Jinlan Mountain entering, you felt you didn't even have a thirty percent chance of succeeding, right?"

The man's eyes showed confusion as if he was sweating bullets; he seemed to be scared.

"I really don't know, I have no idea what you are talking about..."

Yu Ziqing looked at the others, smiled, and his expression slowly turned cold.

"Alright, stop pretending.

In such an important decision, such a key position,

I think, whoever is behind all these plans would absolutely not entrust someone temporarily recruited, just to complete a task, full of uncertainties, even prone to hesitation or betrayal,

to stand in this position, to do this, to make critical decisions based on the actual situation.

A role that seems unimportant is actually the most critical, the key decision-maker who influences the direction of the development.

I know you are not afraid of death. Your role is highly likely a gambit meant to die,

even possibly, one specially meant to die at the hands of a specific person."

You needn't act any longer; I'm not going to kill you personally, rest assured."

Hearing the words spoken by Yu Ziqing, Old Yang's expression turned grim, and Feng Buju found it somewhat unbelievable.

They never thought this role could be significant.

Under normal circumstances, they might have already killed the person.

But Yu Ziqing had always insisted on taking prisoners alive.

Seeing that the man still did not give up,

Yu Ziqing waved to the two hidden members of the Yin Family,

"Members of the Yin Family, come out."

As the Yin Family people came out, Yu Ziqing continued,

"The Evil creature has indeed been sealed. It's just that the Yin Family Patriarch met with misfortune, and Zhao Tiancheng is dead.

Don't you want to know if the Evil creature was brought out?"

With Yu Ziqing's words, the shock on the man's face slowly dissipated, and he calmly said,

"Since it is sealed, you must have brought it out, right?"

"Right, it was brought out, but I tossed it into the depths of an underground hole."

In an instant, the man's calm demeanor shattered, his eyes filled with deep disbelief.

"You...you..."

Yu Ziqing grinned with a haughty laugh,

"Why do you think I'm telling you? I just want you to know. Do you want to go and fetch it?"

Yu Ziqing stood up, picking him up,

"Well, since we can't get anything else out of you, I don't know who you are, I don't know who's behind you, but I think you definitely have a way to send out some messages at the moment of your death."
