The Great Qin: Starting with marrying Jingni, I began my quest for immortality.

However, Jiang Chuan did not want to let it go so easily.

He looked at Madam Mingzhu in front of him.

He asked Ru Shuang, "Does Madam have any means to restrict her?"

"She planted a Gu poison on me, clearly intending to use it to coerce me. Although I obtained the antidote, I don't want this to happen a second time."

Ru Shuang did not answer Jiang Chuan's question directly, but instead asked him, "Does my husband want to keep her?"

"Yes."

Jiang Chuan nodded and said, "Killing her would certainly be satisfying, but it would also completely ruin our business in Xinzheng over the long term. I don't want to just leave Xinzheng like this."

"But keeping her around is also a threat, because there's no guarantee she won't leak what happened tonight, which could cause us trouble."

"Therefore, we must take her life into our own hands."

"I plan to use the Fire Charm Technique to continue interrogating her, to find her weaknesses and vulnerabilities. At the same time, I also need to put shackles on her."

Ru Shuang's eyes flickered as she pondered for a moment. "Within the Net, there is a method that involves injecting internal energy into another person's body. As long as the caster has a thought, the internal energy left in the other person's body can reverse their heart meridian, and the other person can die instantly."

"However, this method also has its drawbacks."

"First, one must be at the Innate Realm to perform this technique. Second, if the victim can find someone with stronger internal energy than the caster, they can force that internal energy out of their body."

"Isn't this the Life and Death Talisman?" Jiang Chuan immediately thought of the Life and Death Talisman after hearing Ru Shuang's description.

. . . 0

"Life and Death Talisman? That's a fitting name." Ru Shuang murmured the three words, praising them.

Jiang Chuan said to Ru Shuang, "Madam, you should use that method on her."

Ru Shuang nodded.

Then, Ru Shuang channeled her internal energy into Madam Mingzhu's body.

Although Ru Shuang said that this method has drawbacks.

But Jiang Chuan firmly believed that even in the darkness of night, there could be no one as powerful as Shuang. Xueyi Hou might be very powerful, but the current Xueyi Hou was not in the court.

As Ru Shuang channeled her inner energy into Madam Mingzhu's body, Jiang Chuan continued to ask Madam Mingzhu questions.

He exposed everything about Madam Mingzhu, including her ancestors for eighteen generations.

When Ru Shuang learned that Lady Mingzhu was actually the cousin of Marquis Bai Yifei, and that Bai Yifei, while outwardly siding with Ji Wuye, actually had ulterior motives and that her cousin, Marquis Bai Yifei, was an ally of him, even Ru Shuang was very surprised.

Such a secret is hard to believe unless you hear it with your own ears.

Therefore, the so-called night sky is not a monolithic entity.

Jiang Chuan, with the help of the Fire Charm Technique, did indeed find the weakness in Madam Mingzhu's defenses.

Her biggest weakness is Bai Yifei.

Bai Yifei has been plotting many things, and she knows about them all. If they are exposed...

The relationship between Ji Wuye and Bai Yifei will be completely broken, and the so-called Four Fiends of the Night will lose two more fives.

Chapter Fifty-Nine: Lady Mingzhu's Horror

After learning Bai Yifei's secret.

Jiang Chuan has essentially grasped Madam Mingzhu's weakness.

There's no point in continuing to use the Fire Charm spell.

Of course, if the interrogation continues, he can also find out about Madam Mingzhu's knowledge of incense making, illusion, and poison techniques, and then learn them.

But after thinking it over, Jiang Chuan gave up.

He will have plenty of opportunities to interrogate Madam Mingzhu later.

At least for now, it's inappropriate.

The Fire Charm spell has been dispelled.

Inside the palace, illuminated by lamplight, Lady Mingzhu slowly awoke.

Upon waking up, the first thing she saw was Jiang Chuan in front of her, and she wanted to take action and eliminate him.

However, what followed was a period of weakness and powerlessness.

At the same time, with a cold snort from Ru Shuang, Mingzhu's wife, "210," immediately felt a sharp, indescribable pain in her heart. In an instant, her face turned pale, and cold sweat poured down her face.

It seems that they felt Madam Mingzhu had suffered enough and should have learned her lesson.

Ru Shuang then released her control over her internal energy.

With her pain subsiding, Madam Mingzhu looked at Jiang Chuan with a grim expression. "What exactly did you do to me?"

Because of the influence of the Fire Charm spell, she didn't remember much about what happened after she was under the illusion.

But she still remembered what happened before she was under the illusion.

He had used a Gu poison on Jiang Chuan, but as soon as he turned around, Jiang Chuan found him.

He also brought with him an extremely powerful woman who subdued him.

After that, she seemed to have lost her memory.

But Lady Mingzhu was able to keenly sense that something must have happened.

"It was merely an illusion spell cast on you, Madam."

I remember now, I remember everything.

When Jiang Chuan's words reached Madam Mingzhu's ears, she immediately remembered them.

She originally intended to use illusion magic on Jiang Chuan.

Then the woman appeared and interrupted his illusion.

Then, Jiang Chuan spoke up, saying that illusion magic wasn't something only he knew. After that, she saw a burst of firelight.

"You used illusion magic on me?"

“Yes.” Jiang Chuan nodded, a strange smile appearing on his lips. “Madam, you told me everything before.”

Madam Mingzhu's pupils contracted slightly.

To let Madam Mingzhu know exactly what secrets he knew, Jiang Chuan revealed some more, "For example, the secret between you and your cousin Bai Yifei..."

"You thought that the King of Han was offering beauties as a pretext to have Jade Tiger collect beauties among the people, but in the end, you turned around and sent them to Bai Yifei to refine Gu poison. I wonder what Ji Wuye would think if he knew about this."

"You should know that Emerald Tiger is a member of the Nightfall."

"Although you are all four fierce generals of the Nightfall, your actions are tantamount to abusing public power for private gain. Not to mention, the things you have done under the guise of the Nightfall are far more than this..."

Madam Mingzhu's expression grew increasingly grim.

Her deepest secret was discovered.

If looks could kill, she would want to kill Jiang Chuan.

However, she did not know the art of witnessing or martial arts like "Surprising Eyes." Her so-called resentful gaze at Jiang Chuan was nothing more than a helpless struggle.

"So, you plan to tell Ji Wuye about these things?" Madam Mingzhu asked Jiang Chuan in a low voice after a moment of thought.

Jiang Chuan shook his head. "If my goal is to eliminate Nightfall, telling Ji Wuye about these things is indeed a way. This could make Ji Wuye suspicious of you two siblings, and he might even remove you from Nightfall."

"But what I seek is not to eliminate the darkness."

"The reason I'm telling you all this is simply to make you understand that I already have leverage over you."

"No, it's not just about leverage."

"Your life is now in our hands."

Madam Mingzhu's expression changed repeatedly.

She wanted to speak, but no words came out.

Because what Jiang Chuan said is all true.

Jiang Chuan discovered the secrets she had kept hidden in her heart.

The woman beside her, with just a cold snort, made her feel as if she were living a life worse than death.

Madam Mingzhu, of course, did not want to die.

Therefore, after weighing the options, she made her choice.

"What do you want? Perhaps we could cooperate..."

Jiang Chuan had already said he wouldn't tell Ji Wuye those secrets, which proved that his goal wasn't to destroy Nightfall, but to use those secrets to blackmail him. And because he was worried that those secrets wouldn't be enough to threaten him, he had that woman leave some hidden tricks inside his body.

Madam Mingzhu was very clever; in a short moment, she understood her current situation.

"What I'm after is beyond your imagination."

Jiang Chuan deliberately acted mysteriously, creating an image of profound mystery for himself.

Madam Mingzhu gave Jiang Chuan a deep look, secretly guessing his background and purpose.

Unfortunately, there was too little information, and she couldn't guess anything.
