Chapter 191: Forced Interrogation

"Heh." Liu Chen gave a dry laugh, "Jian Changsheng, although I don't know how you escaped from prison, if you don't want to experience the pain of soul-shattering interrogation again, you'd better let me go now... I've been missing for so long, the Chamber of Commerce must have already sensed something is wrong, and a large number of people are already on their way. Once they arrive, you won't be able to fly even with wings."

Jian Changsheng looked at Liu Chen coldly. He didn't expect the other party to be such a tough nut to crack. At this rate, it wouldn't be so simple to extract useful information from his mouth.

At the same time, Chen Ling also opened his eyes slightly. He glanced at Liu Chen, who was being pressed against the tree trunk by Jian Changsheng, and an invisible Heart Python was outlined from between his eyebrows, quickly approaching that area.

"Don't worry." Jian Changsheng took out his short sword and said unhurriedly, "They won't be able to catch me... We have plenty of time."

As soon as he finished speaking, the sharp short sword pierced directly into Liu Chen's body, stirring forcefully under Jian Changsheng's control.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!"

Sharp pain tore at Liu Chen's nerves, and he screamed in agony. At the same time, Jian Changsheng's demonic roar rang in his ears:

"Speak! How many people did you send to catch me this time! Where are they all ambushed?! Did you use those outsiders!!"

Jian Changsheng threw out several questions in succession, but Liu Chen had no intention of answering. He endured the sharp pain coming from his body, looking like he would fight to the end...

Chen Ling knew this guy was a tough nut to crack. If he used conventional methods, it would be difficult to pry any useful information from his mouth. So as his fingertips lifted, the Heart Python coiled around Liu Chen began to bite rapidly.

Suddenly, Liu Chen felt his heart calm down instantly. The fear that had originally arisen from Jian Changsheng's coercion and torture vanished at this moment. He could clearly feel the pain in his body, but he had no intention of giving in at all, his whole person inexplicably calm.

"Speak!!" Jian Changsheng roared again.

"Want to get intelligence from me... No way!" Liu Chen gritted his teeth and replied.

Jian Changsheng was also provoked. He slapped the other party's face several times in succession, breaking almost all of Liu Chen's teeth. The muscles of his cheeks were visibly red and swollen, like a pig's head.

Liu Chen was still unafraid, raising his head and shouting: "If you have the ability, just kill me!!"

"Do you really think I don't dare to kill you?!"

Jian Changsheng threw the short sword aside and backhanded a punch into Liu Chen's body. Even though he had retracted most of his strength, most of Liu Chen's ribs were still broken, and his whole body fell to the ground like trash from mid-air.

Liu Chen's wailing echoed through the dense forest. Jian Changsheng had no intention of letting him go at all. His figure flickered and he rode directly on top of him, punches raining down on Liu Chen's face like raindrops.

"Speak or not?"

"Not speaking!"

"Speak or not?!"

"Not speaking!!"

“……”

Jian Changsheng gritted his teeth, his swinging fists getting more ruthless each time. He thought to himself that it was strange; back when he was at the Yan family, he didn't feel that this Liu Chen was so tough...

After more than a dozen punches, Liu Chen was already covered in blood. Jian Changsheng was about to continue the interrogation when a voice suddenly sounded from the side.

"Enough."

Jian Changsheng's fist stopped in mid-air.

He looked back and saw Chen Ling standing up unhurriedly, patting the dust off his coat, "If you keep hitting him, he'll die."

"Don't hit him? If I don't hit him, how can I make him confess?" Jian Changsheng frowned.

"It's rare to see such clumsy interrogation methods as yours."

Jian Changsheng's face turned ugly. He looked at Liu Chen, who was dying beneath him, snorted coldly, and stood up, "Then you do it. I want to see what high-level methods you have."

Chen Ling didn't refuse and walked directly in front of Liu Chen, who was covered in blood, and stood still slowly.

At this time, Liu Chen had already been beaten into a state of delirium. Through the only eye he could open, he saw that it was a strange young man coming to interrogate him, and he said hoarsely and weakly: "If you have the ability... kill me..."

"I'm different from that idiot. I won't kill you, and I won't hit you," Chen Ling said slowly,

"But from now on, you'd better answer whatever I ask... Otherwise, I can't guarantee what will happen."

Jian Changsheng saw this, and his brows furrowed tighter... He wouldn't really intend to rely on such ridiculous threats to interrogate, would he?

He didn't know what medicine Chen Ling was selling in his gourd, but the other party really didn't seem to have any intention of taking action. Even his hands were still in his pockets, as if he weren't interrogating a prisoner, but taking a walk in his own garden.

"First question," Chen Ling said calmly, "Who ordered you to dispose of the corpse?"

Liu Chen was about to bite the bullet and sneer, but the Heart Python coiled around him opened its mouth wide. All the "fear" that had been stolen away rushed back into his mind at once. That was the fear that had been beaten out by Jian Changsheng's punches just now, all gathered together at this moment, overlapping with each other, rushing into Liu Chen's mind like a surging tide!

Liu Chen's pupils contracted instantly!

At this moment, the Chen Ling in his eyes seemed to transform into a tyrannical and ruthless trembling demon, hooking the most primitive and extreme fear in his heart, making his whole body tremble uncontrollably in the pool of blood!

Liu Chen didn't know where he got the strength, but he struggled to crawl up from the pool of blood, then knelt down in front of Chen Ling with a thud, kowtowing while answering:

"It's... It's the Young Master! He's the one who made me do it!!"

Jian Changsheng: ???

Jian Changsheng was dumbfounded. From his perspective, Chen Ling just asked a casual question, and Liu Chen went crazy, kowtowing desperately as if he had encountered something extremely terrifying.

When he interrogated him, Liu Chen was as hard as a rock. Why did he become so cowardly as soon as he saw Chen Ling? What kind of method did this guy use?!

"Who is the Young Master?" Chen Ling asked again.

"Yan Xishou!"

"Was the organ trade in the Seven Districts before also done by you?"

"This... maybe? I don't know either." Liu Chen hesitated.

Seeing this, Chen Ling narrowed his eyes slightly. He walked up slowly and grabbed Liu Chen's collar, his tone ice-cold:

"You'd better think clearly."

"I... I really don't know! I was just ordered to come and dispose of that corpse! I'm just an errand boy cleaning up the mess! I really don't know anything else!"

"Then in this recent period, how many hearts has the Star Chamber of Commerce handled in total?"

"About... three or four?"

"Who bought them?"

"These things aren't for sale... Most of the time, it's based on favors, and some other interest exchanges. This time, it seems the Vice President of the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce begged the Young Master for it because his child was sick... I don't know where the other few went."
