The Cycle of Reincarnation in the Four-Courtyard House: A Journey Through the Heavens

Watanabe was terrified by what he saw. Although Yoshikawa Keiko was a woman, she was the number one unarmed fighter in the Special Higher Police in Beijing.

Yoshikawa was known as the best female fighter in the military in terms of hand-to-hand combat skills. She was also the only female karate master in Japan with a 10th-degree black belt. Yet, she was killed in a single move by this mysterious Chinese man!

"How...how could you treat a woman so cruelly?"

Watanabe yelled at Li Xiao.

"hehe..."

Li Xiao walked step by step to Watanabe's side with a cold smile, his sharp eyes fixed on the other's face.

"You damned invaders have killed so many unarmed civilians of our Dragon Kingdom! You didn't even spare children! And now you dare to talk to me about cruelty?"

"Let me tell you, any Japanese soldier who falls into my hands will only have one fate—death!!!"

Li Xiao's words were like a sharp blade, piercing Watanabe's heart and making the old devil's face even paler.

"Now tell me, does anyone in your Special Higher Police Section know anything about the 27th compound in Beibingmasi?"

Watanabe kept his mouth tightly shut.

He knew very well that if he answered the other party's question, he would be killed immediately!

"I won't say...hehe..."

A roll of climbing rope appeared in Li Xiao's hand, and he quickly tied Watanabe up.

Then he produced an acupuncture kit and slowly opened it.

In his previous life, Li Xiao had learned a set of acupuncture techniques from a renowned traditional Chinese medicine master.

This acupuncture technique is not for treating illnesses and saving lives, but is specifically used for torture and forced confessions.

Originally, the master of traditional Chinese medicine was unwilling to teach Li Xiao this horrific method, believing it to be against the natural order. He even said he was prepared to take the acupuncture technique his master taught him directly into his coffin.

Later, it was only after Li Xiao's former superior personally intervened that this master of traditional Chinese medicine taught him this secret method.

The old leader only said one sentence to this master of traditional Chinese medicine.

"Old Liu, the enemies Li Xiao faces are spies planted in the country by foreign powers to cause sabotage, and traitors within the country who betrayed the country for personal gain. They don't deserve to be treated like human beings!"

Li Xiao stayed with Master Liu for half a month and finally learned the ancient acupuncture technique that was said to have been passed down from the Tang Dynasty.

The greatest advantage of this ancient method of acupuncture is that it does not leave the victim covered in blood and gore. In order to prevent the victim from dying, their injuries must be treated.

This acupuncture technique can stimulate the most sensitive nerve endings of the human body to the maximum extent, causing the victim to feel unparalleled pain.

After more than a thousand years of practice, that master of traditional Chinese medicine once said that almost no one can endure such extreme pain for more than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

When Li Xiao was carrying out his last mission, the traitor who stole state secrets was defeated in less than five minutes by Li Xiao's method of acupuncture.

As silver needles were inserted into Watanabe's specific acupoints, the old Japanese man's eyes bulged out, and he opened his mouth wide, making "heh heh heh" sounds.

Li Xiao immediately sealed his mute acupoint with his first needle, thus preventing the tortured person from shouting and making people feel irritated.

At that moment, Watanabe felt an unprecedented pain coursing through his entire body.

The pain seemed to penetrate his body and affect his soul directly.

He wanted to faint, but at that moment he was perfectly lucid.

The meridians in his limbs were twitching and contracting incessantly, while his torso felt as if it were being gnawed at by tens of thousands of ants.

At this moment, Watanabe finally understood what it meant to be "worse than dead." He suddenly felt incredibly envious of Yoshikawa Keiko, who was lying on the ground, lifeless.

Although Yoshikawa is dead, he will never experience such inhuman torture again.

Under such extreme pain, the area beneath Watanabe was already a mess.

Li Xiao stood up and took two steps back. He looked at the old Japanese soldier who had curled up in a ball on the ground and felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction!

It was this group of treacherous invaders who, with their insatiable greed, plunged our land of China into war and suffering, committing countless heinous crimes on this sacred land!

Therefore, Li Xiao had no psychological burden whatsoever when he used this cruel acupuncture technique on the old Japanese soldier in front of him.

He glanced at his watch; eight minutes had passed.

He stepped forward and removed the six silver needles from Watanabe's body. After more than ten minutes, Watanabe finally recovered from the extreme pain and slowly opened his eyes.

"You can't do it either. You couldn't take it after I only used six silver needles. My acupuncture technique can use up to twelve needles. The pain will double for each additional needle."

Li Xiao's tone was calm and detached, devoid of any hint of worldly concerns.

"So, Mr. Watanabe, would you like to try again?"

He laughed after he finished speaking.

Looking at Li Xiao's neat, white teeth, Watanabe felt as if he were seeing a demon ready to devour its prey, and cold sweat covered his entire body.

"No...don't...I'll tell...I'll tell you everything!"

Li Xiao's expression turned somewhat regretful.

"Oh, why did you tell me so quickly? I wanted to test your patience one more time!"

"No! Please, just give me a quick death! I beg you!!!"

At this moment, Watanabe's mentality completely collapsed. In his more than forty years of life, he had never seen such a ruthless person.

Faced with such horrific torture, this guy's eyes didn't even flicker.

What kind of training must one undergo to hone such a cold-blooded mentality?

"Now tell me, does anyone else in your area know anything about the courtyard at number 27?"

Watanabe quickly replied, "No, Keiko only discovered the anomaly in that courtyard three days ago, so she volunteered to personally monitor it."

"She only reported this to me, so currently only the two of us know about it!"

Li Xiao stared intently into Watanabe's eyes, but found nothing amiss, which finally put his mind at ease.

"Very well, given your cooperative attitude, I'll grant you a swift resolution!"

As he finished speaking, an FN57 pistol appeared in his hand.

"Bang!"

The bullet pierced his forehead precisely. Watanabe stared wide-eyed, motionless, his gaze seemingly carrying a sense of relief.

Li Xiao glanced to the side; Keiko Yoshikawa was already dead.

He quickly disappeared from the supermarket space and returned to the outside world.

At this time, the Japanese military police were mobilized again in Beijing.

Because of the fire at the Deshengxuan Theater, a Japanese major general and three colonels all died in the fire.

Upon learning of this, the newly appointed commander of the North China region, General Yoshijiro Umezu, immediately dispatched a large number of military police and even troops stationed nearby to begin a thorough search of Beijing.
