Chapter 66

Two men carrying a live person did not return to Wulong Town but instead went directly out of the city to the outskirts.

Tang Zheng wanted to return to the Treasure Gathering Pavilion to ask Old Man Ban if he had anything like a truth serum, but Azhi immediately negated the idea without even consulting Ban Yilou.

Tang Zheng simply gave up on the idea of returning to the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.

After all, if they returned, the Tang Family Manor’s disciples would inevitably ask why two people went out for a meal and came back with a third person.

Moreover, when he encountered the assassin last time, Tang Zixie had said that he knew every martial artist of the First Rank Intermediate level and above in the Hidden Blue Manor. As long as he saw them clearly, he could definitely recognize them.

Thud.

The two men did not walk far. Not far from the outskirts of the city, they threw the person down.

“Do you not plan to tell Sister Tang and the others?” Azhi asked in a low voice.

“This is my business with the Hidden Blue Manor,” Tang Zheng replied with a smile.

“Why do they chase you as soon as they see you? What did you do to them?” Azhi asked again.

“You want to know a lot, but I want to know even more…” Tang Zheng kicked the unconscious Lan Yan yi, “Hey, wake up!”

“…” Azhi looked at Tang Zheng with a face that said, “How could this possibly wake him up?”

Tang Zheng shrugged, “If you can do it, go ahead.”

Azhi pursed his lips and said nothing.

Although he knew that a person in a coma wouldn’t wake up easily, he didn’t know how to wake them up either.

But it didn’t matter; Tang Zheng knew what to do—wait!

In his previous life, he knew that only cold water could stimulate a person to wake up, but in the middle of the night in the wilderness, where could he find cold water?

So, under the gentle night breeze, the next Shadow King of Shadow Mountain had to squat beside an old tree root, shivering pitifully.

“Your precognition ability…” Since there was nothing to do, Azhi thought about the question that had been on his mind, “Can you teach it to me?”

“…” Tang Zheng gave Azhi the same look he had just received.

“What… what’s wrong? If you don’t want to, it’s fine…” Azhi turned his head.

“I only knew that your experience in the world was shallow, but I didn’t expect it to be this shallow! You actually believed it again?” Tang Zheng said.

“You mean… it was fake again?!” Azhi was almost ready to explode.

“Of course it was fake! Playing rock-paper-scissors with you was just because I’ve been practicing my eyesight for ten years, and you’re a beginner at rock-paper-scissors. Winning you was very normal.”

“What about the hay bale? How did you know that jumping out of that window would definitely land you on a pile of hay?”

“Observation!” Tang Zheng patted Azhi’s head, “Otherwise, why would I stand at the entrance of the Wufeng Tavern for so long?”

“…” Azhi’s mind was full of “How is this possible?” and “It’s that simple.”

Just by having keen eyesight and observing the details around him, he could achieve an effect almost like precognition.

Where could such a person be cultivated?

The training of the next generation in Shadow Mountain was already the most elite method he knew of in this world. However, he believed that even after ten years, if he continued to follow the path of Shadow Mountain, his combat experience, eyesight, and hearing would never reach Tang Zheng’s level!

Azhi subconsciously asked, “Where are you from?”

“Awake!” Tang Zheng almost said it at the same time, but his gaze was on Lan Yan yi!

…

Azhi was one step behind again!

To Azhi, there was no change on Lan Yan yi’s face.

But Tang Zheng could clearly say that he was awake.

Lan Yan yi was indeed awake. As he thought, “There’s a Second Rank martial artist opposite me; I’ll pretend to be unconscious and listen to the situation,” he heard Tang Zheng’s two words, “Awake,” like a judgment.

Only he was unconscious, so when Tang Zheng said “awake,” he was obviously referring to him.

“Since you’re awake, then… Azhi, disable his remaining hand and foot.” Tang Zheng walked over and picked up Lan Yan yi, who was already half-disabled.

“You… you dare…” Lan Yan yi didn’t expect them to disable his limbs without asking any questions, “You captured me alive to get information from me…”

“Of course, but that doesn’t stop us from disabling you first.” Tang Zheng replied with a smile.

Lan Yan yi was momentarily speechless.

It seemed that these two things indeed had no logical connection.

Azhi acted without hesitation. Lan Yan yi, knowing that the other party was a Second Rank martial artist and he was severely injured and unable to resist, could only watch helplessly as he slowly became a cripple…

His eyes were already red, bloodshot, and he wanted to tear Tang Zheng and Azhi apart.

“Hey, hey, hey, don’t look at me like that.” Tang Zheng waved his hand with a smile.

“I… I won’t say anything…” Lan Yan yi glared at Tang Zheng, breathing heavily.

Azhi looked at Tang Zheng with some tension.

Tang Zheng shrugged and spread his hands at Lan Yan yi, “Of course you won’t say anything, because I haven’t asked anything.”

Lan Yan yi’s breath caught.

Right, they hadn’t asked anything…

If they didn’t want to ask anything, didn’t want to know anything, then he had no leverage to save his life.

Cold sweat trickled down Lan Yan yi’s back.

“I just wanted to catch a specimen to teach this kid some combat experience,” Tang Zheng said indifferently, “But from what you’re saying, it seems like you have something you want to say?”

“…” Lan Yan yi didn’t know whether to nod or shake his head!

If he nodded, he would be directly contradicting his previous statement that he wouldn’t say anything.

But if he shook his head, he feared that he would immediately lose his value.

Losing his value meant he had no hope of saving his life.

Tang Zheng smiled again, “Alright, since you want to say something so much, I’ll reluctantly ask a few questions to prevent you from dying too disappointed…”

He had a benevolent, considerate attitude.

Looking at his face that said, “I don’t want to ask anything; it’s you who wants to say it,” Lan Yan yi wanted to tear this person apart even more!

Tang Zheng’s first question was indeed asked, “Are you male or female?”

Azhi almost bumped into a tree!

It was really a very reluctant, meaningless question…

Was there any sincerity at all?

Lan Yan yi had just woken up, with a belly full of secrets ready to use as leverage to save his life, but the other party asked such a perfunctory question!

“What do you really want to do?” Lan Yan yi’s muddled mind became even more confused.

“I’m asking you questions.” Tang Zheng laughed, “Don’t like it? Then let’s change it. How old are you this year?”

“…” Lan Yan yi really, really wanted to kill him.

“Don’t like it again? Fine, I won’t ask. You can say whatever you want.” Tang Zheng narrowed his eyes and looked at his wounds, “We have plenty of time, no rush. But the blood in your body can only last for half an hour. After half an hour, you’ll die from blood loss… Do you want to die?”

Lan Yan yi certainly didn’t want to die; he valued himself very much!

If Tang Zheng hadn’t seen this, he wouldn’t have played this psychological game with him.

“If you die, it will be very troublesome,” Tang Zheng sighed, “I’ll have to catch someone else again…”

“…” As Tang Zheng spoke, Lan Yan yi felt that each sentence was more indifferent than the last.

And Tang Zheng’s last sentence made his already confused head even more muddled.

Because he understood the reason for the other party’s indifferent attitude!

That’s right, he wasn’t the only one.

He wasn’t the only one who knew Tang Zheng’s identity, nor was he the only one by Lan Shaoye’s side.

In other words, he wasn’t irreplaceable!

Therefore, his value to the other party was greatly reduced.

“I…” Lan Yan yi gritted his teeth and rolled his eyes, “What do you want to know…”

“You don’t have much time, think carefully before you speak. If you say something wrong, I don’t think your condition will give you a chance to say it again.” Before Lan Yan yi could speak, Tang Zheng smiled and reminded him.
