Evil of all ages

Chapter 231 Brainstorming
"I really regret letting you escape."

Tan San leaned against the wall, and all the people who saw him ran away.

He turned his head and glanced at Huang Yunyou, the culprit, before finally fixing his gaze on Cheng Zichen.

He regretted it.

He regretted not having mobilized all his forces to capture Cheng Zichen.

If they capture him, how will Cheng Zichen have the chance to invite the high-ranking innate expert?

Now it's too late. He has lost everything he owned, and he's about to lose his life.

"what"

Tan San couldn't help but cry out, because Cheng Zichen had pierced his thigh with a sword.

"Answer me, where did you hide my sister?"

Cheng Zichen asked fiercely.

"Heh...heh...your sister?"

"You're in a hurry? What's there to be in a hurry about? You've only lost a little sister, but I've lost everything."

The more Cheng Zichen acted this way, the less Tan San wanted to answer, and he even retaliated by provoking Cheng Zichen for ruining everything he had.

"what"

Cheng Zichen's eyes turned cold, and he forcefully twisted the sword hilt, tearing the blade through Tan San's wound, causing Tan San to scream out.

"Tell me, and I'll give you a quick and painless answer."

Cheng Zichen stopped what he was doing and asked.

Tan San didn't want to be tortured, so he hardened his eyes and tried to bite his tongue to commit suicide.

But Huang Yunyou, who was standing nearby, was on guard against him. Just as he was about to bite his tongue and commit suicide, Huang Yunyou dislocated his jaw.

“You can’t do it this way. You have to torture him until he’s begging to live and begging to die, then he’ll be eager to tell you all the secrets in his heart.”

Huang Yunyou told Cheng Zichen to be ruthless and not to be polite to this kind of scum.

"I won't"

Cheng Zichen stated that he could kill people, but he wouldn't torture them.

"let me"

Huang Yunyou told Cheng Zichen to step aside. His master had taught him many skills, including methods of torturing people.

Even though it's the first time using it, and you might not be very careful, when using it on scum, as long as you ensure the person doesn't die immediately, you don't need to be careful about the amount of force used.

Cheng Zichen then witnessed Huang Yunyou's methods of torturing Tan San.

Looking at him, I couldn't help but raise my eyebrows. Such ruthless methods must have been taught by Li Xunhuan.

In his heart, he had already decided that Huang Yunyou's master was Li Xunhuan.

Huang Yunyou was a master of innate strength, and only by becoming the master of the strongest person in the world could he have achieved such a breakthrough speed in three years.

Under Huang Yunyou's torment, Tan San could no longer bear it and wanted to finish answering the questions as soon as possible to find relief.

Tell me, where did you hide Linlin?

Huang Yunyou straightened Tan San's chin and asked.

Tiejiabao

"The reason why our Wolf Gang is able to dominate Qishan County is because of Tiejiabao."

“But they don’t help us for nothing. Every quarter, in addition to giving them 50% of the profits, we also select ten beauties to send to them.”

"The person you are looking for has been transported to Tiejiabao."

Tan San replied.

Upon hearing the name Tiejiabao, Cheng Zichen's expression turned slightly unpleasant.

Huang Yunyou stayed at the bottom of the cliff for three years. His master only knew about the old Jianghu (martial arts world) and the fact that the old and new forces in the Jianghu changed very quickly. He knew nothing about Tiejiabao.

So he turned to look at Cheng Zichen.

"There are innate experts in Tiejiabao, and more than one."

Cheng Zichen replied.

"Besides the Innate Realm experts, is Tie Family Fortress connected with any other forces that have Grandmaster-level experts?"

Huang Yunyou had such doubts because rescuing Cheng Linlin and destroying the Divine Sword Manor were equally difficult.

Tiejiabao is not a top-tier power, so it's impossible for them to have several Grandmaster-level experts hidden within.

That Tie Family Fortress might be connected to a top-tier power.

Or perhaps the difficulties and dangers they encountered during their rescue of Cheng Linlin were unimaginable.

Cheng Zichen shook his head, indicating that he didn't know much about Tiejiabao and was unsure whether Tiejiabao was connected to any top-tier power.

Meanwhile, Cheng Zichen felt that Huang Yunyou was being too cautious. His master was the strongest person in the world; was it necessary for him to be so cautious? Seeing that Cheng Zichen didn't know much about Tiejiabao, Huang Yunyou asked Tan San, but Tan San also knew nothing about Tiejiabao.

Unable to obtain the information Huang Yunyou wanted, Huang Yunyou killed Tan San with a single sword strike.

The system notification sounded, indicating a reward.

“Brother Cheng, there are dozens of girls locked up inside. Go outside and find a few commoners to report to the authorities.”

"Then come back and find where the Wolf Gang keeps their gold and silver treasures. Take some, and if there are any rare or precious medicines, that would be even better."

"I just had some insights into martial arts, and I need to meditate for a while."

Cheng Zichen wanted to say that they should just report it to the authorities instead of bringing gold and silver treasures, but after hearing the rest of the story, Huang Yunyou gained some insights into martial arts.

He was shocked.

Is this what a martial arts prodigy is like?
If you have any insights, then you have some insights!

Is it really true that hard work can't compare to talent?

Although Cheng Zichen felt a sense of inadequacy in comparing himself to others, he was a martial artist and knew how important it was for a martial artist to have a sudden flash of inspiration and enlightenment.

Huang Yunyou was told to quickly go into his room to slowly comprehend and cultivate.

Inside the room
Huang Yunyou claimed the six months of True Qi reward from the system.

This saved him two months of arduous training.

"In just a few days, he gained the skill that he had cultivated for nearly five months."

"At this rate, I'll probably gain several years' worth of skill in just one or two months."

"Breaking through to the middle stage of the Innate Realm is no problem, and breaking through to the late stage of the Innate Realm is also entirely possible."

"This is the system!"

Huang Yunyou felt that the system was too irregular.

It seems that all geniuses and prodigies are just a joke in front of the system.

No matter how fast you break through, it can't compare to the system's blessings and rewards.

After expressing his feelings, Huang Yunyou opened the points mall panel.

The points account shows: 51 points.
He was relieved.

Aside from the first time the system secretly swallowed his points, it didn't do so again.

Moreover, recently the system has stopped causing trouble except when issuing tasks and making noise.

Even when he asked the system questions, the system's voice gradually became cold and emotionless.

He didn't know if it was a system problem or what.

I always felt that when the system appeared in the early stages, it was because some unknown consciousness was trying to talk to him through the system.

After the unknown consciousness receded, the system coldly and rigidly operated according to the rules.

"System, are you still there?"

"Say something! Did the mother system steal your soul?"

"System, if you don't say anything, I'll assume you agree to my terms and that you're not allowed to take my points anymore."

"..."

To verify this, Huang Yunyou deliberately called upon the system in his mind.

However, the system ignored him, as if his guess had been confirmed.

"Could it be that the unknown consciousness is actually the consciousness of the Heavenly Dao?"

"What kind of upheaval is about to occur in this world?"

"Did the consciousness of heaven and earth sense that the situation was not good, and thus sent down the system to cultivate strong individuals, so that they could deal with the unknown dangers that were about to come?"

Before he began practicing martial arts, Huang Yunyou was a scholar.

How could a scholar not read strange and wonderful stories?

My knowledge of the consciousness of heaven and earth also came from those stories about demons and monsters.

As a scholar, he naturally loves to overthink things.

That's how this kind of plot was added.

"never mind"

"When the boat reaches the bridge, it will straighten itself."

"Why do you think so much!"

Huang Yunyou got up, opened the door, and went out.
