[Just from the aura that the other party exudes, I know that if the other party really wants to kill me, I can't even pull out the knife. ]

[“What do you want to check?” the man said, his voice was neither male nor female and full of mechanical flavor, obviously using a special voice changer.]

[Jing Yuan pulled up the detailed battle report of this battle, and then with a swipe of his finger, the screen flew directly in front of the man.]

[While the man was checking the battle report, Jing Yuan said: "I suspect there is a traitor behind this..."

He briefly explained his suspicions.]

[Whether it was pre-war reconnaissance, logistical preparations, or the deployment of troops and formations, Fu Xuan did it almost perfectly. At the same time, before setting out, he repeatedly used the Qiongguan Formation to perform divination to eliminate various unexpected situations.]

[Jing Yuan believed that even if he were to take over, he would not be able to do better than Fu Xuan. But Fu Xuan still lost. Bu Liren seemed to have seen through all her arrangements, allowing her to step into the trap with precision.]

[The only person who could deceive Fu Xuan, who is good at divination, is the current Luofu General, Hao Ren, who has a higher authority.]

[Kyung Won turns the teacup in his hand and explains to himself: “This is what puzzles me: he has absolutely no reason to do this”]

[If Fu Xuan was his superior, one could also say that he was trying to frame Fu Xuan so that he could seize the position of general.]

[But he is now a general, but he is harming his subordinates... Why is your majesty rebelling? ]

[It can't be just for fun, right? ]

[In fact, Jing Yuan's guess is almost close to the truth. ]

“I need time.”

The man said coldly. 】

[“In any case, please complete the investigation as soon as possible. He may be planning a bigger conspiracy.” Jing Yuan said.]

[The man did not answer. By the time Jing Yuan was distracted, he had already disappeared.]

[Jing Yuan didn't notice that a nearby three- or four-story building overlooked his courtyard. The camera installed under the eaves was facing his courtyard and shrank.]

[This small building has existed for a hundred years, and the cameras have been installed for a long time. Jing Yuan did not have any doubts about this familiar thing. ]

[In a dimly lit room, you look at the surveillance footage on the screen and start laughing.]

[Jingyuan will never imagine how much you value him. ]

[In your eyes, the strength of the goalkeeper of Jingyuan Order is not worth mentioning, but his brain is indeed your biggest threat. ]

[So even though Jing Yuan has abdicated, you still haven't let down your guard against him.]

【Everything that happened today has shown that your worries are not without reason.】

[“A retired old guy should just drink some tea and take a walk. He’s still worrying after retirement. He’s really a born cow or horse saint.” You couldn’t help but complain. ]

[Unfortunately, his former general status is too sensitive to shut him up completely.]

[“Forget it, let me prepare to welcome this distinguished guest first.” You thought to yourself.]

[One week later, late at night, a figure landed lightly on your roof without making any sound.]

[After he entered the courtyard, he headed straight for the study.]

[When he avoided the surveillance cameras, landed in front of the study door quietly, and pushed the door open to enter. ]

[Buzz! ! The entire study was instantly enveloped by high-energy laser beams, which directly formed a huge cage, trapping the man in black inside. ]

[“What crime should I be punished for making me wait for so long?” Your frivolous voice echoed in the courtyard.]

[The man in black who was trapped in the laser ignored you and looked around, trying to find a breakthrough to escape. ]

[Of course, the trap you set in advance is not so easy to escape. It can be said that it is almost impossible to escape using tricks, and you can only use force to overcome tricks. ]

[The man in black found that there were almost no holes in the cage, so he decisively used all his strength.]

[The bright moon hanging high in the sky suddenly dimmed, as if its light had been stolen. Then, the ice instantly spread out from the man in black to the surroundings, instantly bursting the laser cage.]

[Seeing this, instead of being angry, you looked excited.

"It's you! It's actually you! Jingliu!"】

[The man in black was about to run away, but when she heard you call out her name, she stopped pretending and threw off her black cloak, revealing her true face.]

[A light dark blue armor, fluorescent white hair, red eyes full of murderous intent, holding a sword made of condensed ice, who else could it be but Jingliu. ]

[“Jingyuan actually asked you to come and gather intelligence~ It seems I really need to thank him.” You showed a playful smile, and your greedy eyes scanned her body up and down. ]

[Jing Liu frowned immediately. She felt that your gaze was like a vicious python, revealing malice and evil without any disguise.]

[Thinking of the evidence I had found: As a general of Xianzhou, you actually colluded with Buli people and harmed millions of Yunqi soldiers. ]

[Jingliu hates evil creatures the most in his life, and traitors are often more hated than enemies, so Jingliu immediately raised his sword and stabbed you. ]

[You smiled slightly, and the dark 'Nirvana' had already fallen into your hands. You blocked it with your hand, and Jingliu's sword was swung aside by an irresistible force.]

[The killing intent in Jing Liu's eyes becomes stronger, and he leaps directly into the air, spinning his body in the air like a dance, raising his sword and swinging it at you. ]

[Instantly, the moonlight condensed into sword light, splashing down towards the ground below.]

[You casually waved your hands twice, and suddenly a series of golden sword lights formed to meet the attack.]

[The golden and silver sword lights met in the air, but strangely there was no collision. The golden sword light was like sunlight, directly swallowing up the silver moonlight.]

[The golden sword light that swallowed up the moonlight seemed to grow a little bigger and flew towards Jingliu.]

[“What!?” Jingliu showed a look of panic for the first time.]

[This time it seemed slow, but in fact it was only a blink of an eye. Jing Liu had no time to dodge and could only hold the ice sword in front of him as a shield.]

222

Chapter 222 Water torture.

[The next second, the golden sword light completely engulfed Jing Liu's body.]

[Golden light suddenly exploded, and the sky instantly turned into a dazzling white, as if daybreak had arrived.]

[Plop! Jingliu's figure fell from the white light and landed directly in the pond in front of you.]

[Her armor was shattered, her fair skin was covered with long and narrow bloodstains, her hair was spread out like seaweed on the water. She just floated quietly on the water, like a flower destroyed by conservativeness.]

[You noticed that the Cloud Cavalry guarding nearby were rapidly approaching this side, so you quickly picked up Jing Liu and hid her in the secret room, then sorted out your clothes and walked into the courtyard.]

[Soon the guards arrived at the courtyard. Seeing you standing there safe and sound, they all breathed a sigh of relief and saluted you with their fists clasped.

"General!"

[After you sent the guard away on the pretext that you were careless and moved too much while practicing swordplay, you quickly entered the secret room with excitement in your eyes.]

[Jing Liu, who had already been attacked by the devil, seemed to recover faster. In addition, you had already regarded her as your forbidden delicacy and did not kill her. At this moment, her injuries have almost healed.]

[You first fed her a poison, which made her lose her ability to resist, and then tied her to a special torture device.]

[It was an enlarged wooden wheel, half of which was immersed in water. The wheel was connected to a turntable. As long as the turntable was turned, the wheel would turn along with it.]

[At this time, if the tortured person is tied to the wheel and then starts to turn, the tortured person's head will be turned into the water with the wheel, and then slowly turned out of the water. ]

[In fact, this is a type of water torture. Simple water torture only requires an absorbent towel and water. This set of torture instruments may seem more complicated, but in fact it just makes people less laborious, and the principle has not changed.]

【“Hmm~!” Perhaps due to the stimulation of the cold water on his legs, Jingliu suddenly woke up. 】

["What are you doing!?" Jingliu asked coldly. ]

[You touched Jing Liu's cheek unscrupulously, then leaned close to her ear and said happily: Can't you see? Of course I want to torture you! ]

[“Hmph!” Jingliu snorted coldly. You could hear the disdain in her voice. She must have felt that she could even survive the torture of the demonic body, so cricket torture was nothing.]

[You smiled and didn't explain too much.]

[If the Great Memory Restoration Technique was really that easy to handle, it wouldn't be called this. Humans have always been very experienced in torturing their own kind.]

[So you start to slowly spin the wheel, and the mirror tied to the wheel in a big letter shape begins to slowly sink into the water.]

[Under the effect of the poison, her body is now no different from that of an ordinary person. When her head entered the water, Jing Liu immediately felt a bone-chilling coldness spread throughout her body, causing her to shiver all over. Since she had mastered her swordsmanship, she had not felt the feeling of cold for a long time.]

[It’s rare to experience this now, and it actually feels a little strange. 】

[After a while, she began to feel suffocated. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she felt that the speed of the wheel was getting slower and slower, as if she would never surface.]

[Jingliu finally couldn't hold on any longer and spit out a large group of bubbles. At the same time, he subconsciously sucked in water. The feeling of suffocation instantly doubled, but the wheel still didn't reach the surface of the water.]

[Just when she was about to give up, the wheel finally turned her head out of the water, and fresh air rushed to her face. She breathed greedily, and at the same time kept coughing, spraying out the water that she had just inhaled into her throat and nasal cavity.]

[Soon she was coughing and crying, her face was in disarray, not even close to the heroic and valiant image of a female swordsman.]

[The wheel passed the highest point and continued to turn her head into the water. At this time, Jingliu felt that the speed of the wheel seemed to have increased a lot. Looking at the water surface getting closer and closer, she felt a sense of fear for no reason.]

[Before she could adjust her mindset, her head was forced into the water again...]

[Whether it is fear or pain, there is a certain threshold. Continuously inflicting pain will only make the victim develop a corresponding resistance and become more numb, which greatly reduces the effect.]

[However, water torture is different. It first makes the victim feel suffocated, then lets him breathe air for a short time, and then continues to suffocate, thus constantly giving the victim the despair of suffocation and the hope of life.]

[This cycle repeats itself, and the pain and despair of suffocation will continue to grow, eventually causing the victim to collapse and surrender.]

[The guy who invented water torture must be a pervert who understands human nature. ]

[99.99% of people cannot survive water torture, but you are relieved that Jing Liu survived. She was tortured to the point of passing out, and she did not show any intention of obeying you.]

[She is indeed the most special one! ]

[As expected, after falling into the devil's shadow, he was able to regain his sanity and even maintain this state for nearly a thousand years. ]

[Only such a woman is worthy of your repeated adjustments to make her surrender. When you succeed, the sense of accomplishment is exciting just thinking about it! ]

[You let her go for now, of course the big meal should be saved for later. ]

[And it looks like someone can't wait to jump into your bowl. ]

[At the same time, in Jing Yuan's courtyard, Fu Xuan looked at the screen in front of him, his hands tightly grasping the edge of the table.]

[The screen shows the evidence of how you passed the information to Bu Liren and used the five million cloud cavalry led by Fu Xuan as bait.]

[Perhaps out of caution, or perhaps because he had a premonition that something might happen to him, Jing Liu had already handed over the other evidence he had collected to Jing Yuan in advance when he went to your mansion to collect the most crucial evidence.]

[Looking at Fu Xuan's appearance, Jing Yuan sighed.

"These evidences are not enough to bring down Hao Ren, and may even implicate you, making you hopeless of being elected general for life."]

[Even if the complaint is successful, the superior will not like the subordinate who informs on others. It has nothing to do with justice and fairness, it is just simple human nature.]

[Once Fu Xuan did this, she would be putting her own future at risk with Hao Ren. Regardless of whether it would be successful or not, her career would be over anyway.]
