Evil of all ages

Chapter 39 I'm waiting for your revenge
Di Qingtian summoned everyone, claiming that there had been progress in the case.

Prison warden He Rongjiang, along with Chang Xingde and a group of prison officers.

Even Liu Yidao, who hadn't been seen for a long time, came.

Huang Taichu and Ren Zhengnian were also brought over by Yin Tianying.

青楼
Huang Taichu, the real Huang, was enjoying Xiao Xi's back massage when he saw Di Qingtian doing this through his virtual clone.

"I wonder who he learned this clone from. He's so reckless that he provoked Di Qingtian to make a move. I just don't know what evil intentions Di Qingtian is harboring."

……

When Chang Xingde saw that Di Qingtian had even brought Huang Taichu here, his brows furrowed, realizing that Di Qingtian was truly relentless in his pursuit of Huang Taichu.

He couldn't help but look at He Rongjiang, hoping that He Rongjiang could come up with a solution to prevent Di Qingtian from making things difficult for Huang Taichu.

Otherwise, if the Ghost King gets angry, they will be the ones to suffer.

He Rongjiang wanted to help Huang Taichu out of the predicament, but he couldn't do it openly. He first gave Chang Xingde a look that said "stay calm" and prepared to deal with whatever came his way.

"Lord Di, what progress have you made?"

Liu Yi glanced at Huang Taichu; the haggard look on his face indicated that he hadn't slept well for the past few days.

He hoped he could let himself go, but he was possessed by a demon.

While telling himself that there are no ghosts in the world, his body instinctively told him that he was afraid.

He was overjoyed to hear from Di Qingtian that there was progress in the mystery case. He hoped that the mystery was man-made so that he could be free from guilt.

“Yes, I can prove that everything that happened in the Heavenly Prison was not caused by ghosts or monsters, and I can also prove that he is not the son of the Ghost King as you believe.”

Di Qingtian said.

"how to prove?"

He Rongjiang and the others originally wanted to say something, but when they heard Liu Yidao's question, they had no choice but to swallow their words that would make things more difficult for Di Qingtian.

Di Qingtian did not answer immediately, but walked step by step toward Huang Taichu, with the Yin brothers following closely behind.

“Everyone in the prison believes that your father did it, so your father must have been watching all of this, and watching you.”

“You are his son, so he probably wouldn’t allow anyone to hurt you.”

"So……"

Suddenly, Di Qingtian drew Yin Tianyong's knife and slashed at Huang Taichu's shoulder.

This scene terrified He Rongjiang and his group; they wanted to stop it, but it was too late.

Just as the blade was about to strike Huang Taichu's shoulder, Di Qingtian instantly switched positions and slammed the back of his blade into Huang Taichu's shoulder, the force so great that it forced Huang Taichu to fall backward.

When Ren Zhengnian and the others realized what was happening, they quickly caught Huang Taichu and saw that Huang Taichu's face was pale with fright and his shoulders were covered with shocking bruises.

They were furious, and their eyes glared at Di Qingtian as if they wanted to devour him.

“You all saw it; if it had been cut with a blade, he would have been dead long ago.”

"If his father truly exists as a ghost, how could he not save his son?"

"Is it that we're not going to save him, or does he really not exist?"

"Of course, if you still don't believe me, then see if I can survive tonight, see if I will be killed by evil spirits tonight."

Di Qingtian wasn't just trying to dispel superstition; he was also using himself as bait to see if he could lure out the person behind the scenes tonight.

Seeing this, He Rongjiang and the others' eyes flickered, and they began to suspect that everything in the prison was actually man-made, rather than the work of ghosts.

Chang Xingde was the most shaken. He hadn't forgotten that he had given Huang Taichu one hundred taels of silver. That was one hundred taels of silver; it wasn't something that came out of thin air.

If Huang Taichu's deceased father never existed, then he must get his money back.

However, we still need to confirm whether Di Qingtian can make it through the night.

If he fails to overcome the obstacle, he will not only have to remain the same, but also pay more attention to Huang Taichu.

If he survives this, he will make Huang Taichu repay whatever Huang Taichu owes him, doubly so.

"You slashed me, even though it was on my clone, it's still considered an act of harming me."

"Revenge, we must get revenge."

"How should we retaliate?"

"Why don't we use his sister to pay off the debt?"

"Wait, how could I have such a thought? She looks exactly like the woman from my previous life."

"I'm not that kind of person, why don't you find someone else?"

"But his sister is prettier..."

Huang Taichu seemed to be struggling with his decision, but the corners of his mouth were already turned up. "I'll come see you tonight."

When Liu Yidao saw that Huang Taichu was so frightened that his face turned pale, he looked away from him and began to believe Di Qingtian's words, thinking that all of this was man-made.

Knowing that Di Qingtian planned to use himself as bait tonight, he sent a telepathic message to Di Qingtian as he turned to leave, saying that he would secretly go over there.

Besides protecting Di Qingtian, it was also to wait for the rabbit to run into the tree stump.

"Do you want to get revenge for this knife wound?"

"Then come on, I'll be waiting for your revenge tonight."

"Don't be afraid to come. Your father is very fierce. If he can't kill me, the others in the Heavenly Prison won't recognize you as the son of the Ghost King."

"It will be difficult for you to survive in the prison from now on."

Di Qingtian squatted down in front of Huang Taichu, his voice loud and provocative.

It's unclear whether this was meant for Huang Taichu or for the people behind the scenes who were playing tricks.

"My lord, you are joking. How could I dare to retaliate against you?"

Huang Taichu spoke through the spirit beast within his clone.

"Stop pretending. Your eyes tell me you're a vengeful person."

Congratulations, you got it right.

Huang Taichu smiled inwardly, but had no intention of doing anything to Di Qingtian tonight.

When Di Qingtian saw that Huang Taichu didn't respond, he pretended to be alarmed by what Huang Taichu had said.

He was speechless for a moment at Huang Taichu's dramatic act. When he saw the bruise on Huang Taichu's shoulder, he gave Yin Tianying a look.

Yin Tianying understood, and took out a bottle of medicine powder for treating external injuries from her bosom and placed it in front of Huang Taichu.

Seeing that Yin Tianying had put down the medicine, Di Qingtian got up and left with the two brothers.

"Xiao Chu, if the strange case in the prison is related to you, don't make any rash moves tonight. He's doing this to lure you in."

Seeing that no one else was around, Ren Zhengnian whispered something in Huang Taichu's ear.

"Uncle Ren, what does this have to do with me? Help me back to rest, my shoulder is killing me."

Ren Zhengnian couldn't discern anything from Huang Taichu's face and thought he was overthinking things, so he carried Huang Taichu back to their post.

Night falls
Di Qingtian waited with a lamp lit, and he wasn't the only one waiting; many others were secretly waiting with him.

They just waited and waited, and then dawn broke.

This left Di Qingtian's face full of disappointment.

"Perhaps the person behind the scenes who's playing tricks knows it's a trap, which is why they haven't come out."

Liu Yidao stepped out from the shadows and spoke.

"The most troublesome thing is that they don't come out; it means they all cower in."

Di Qingtian was most afraid of this. Apart from the initial deaths of Shi Boyi and the other four, no one else died in the prison.

It seems the people behind the scenes who are playing tricks are already satisfied and have retreated into their shells, so how can we investigate further?

"Lord Di, I believe in you. No one can compare to you when it comes to solving mysterious cases."

Liu Yidao didn't like to use his brain, so he patted Di Qingtian on the shoulder to encourage him and then ran back to the third floor.

Seeing that Di Qingtian had survived the previous night unscathed, the others were no longer so afraid and couldn't help but scoff at Huang Taichu, the son of the Ghost King.

However, they knew that Di Qingtian was still keeping an eye on Huang Taichu, so they couldn't go to the Ding area to mock Huang Taichu.

Just as Di Qingtian continued his investigation, people from the Dali Temple arrived.

"What? You want me to go into the palace to investigate a case?"

Di Qingtian looked at the registrar He in front of him and said.

"This is an imperial decree. I urge you, Chief Secretary Di, to quickly return to the Dali Temple with me, wash up, change into your official robes, and enter the palace."

He Dong said anxiously.

"The mystery here hasn't been solved yet, it can't wait for me..."

He Dong: "My Lord Di, how can cases in the palace be compared to those outside the palace?"

"No matter how big a case is outside the palace, it's nothing special. But no matter how small a case is inside the palace, it's still a major case."

"If you dare to postpone, you may not value your life, but we do."
