Qi Binwei snorted coldly, "Not fun."

Then he slowly walked to the jailer, waved the branding iron in front of his eyes, and said in a low and gloomy voice: "Use the whip to whip me at dawn every day until I am tired. When night falls, sew up the wound according to my method just now."

The jailer suppressed his fear and nodded, "Yes!"

Ruan Shuming, who was pretending to faint, looked ashen when he heard this. He suppressed his fear and anger, his heart filled with despair.

If he had not taken the pill before attacking the palace, he would not have been able to hold on until now.

He didn't want to die yet, and didn't want to end up like Qi Rui.

If there is a worst-case scenario, he would like to die quickly and not in this way.

I don’t know whether Hui’er has returned to Ningyuan City. When my father saw her, he would naturally understand what I meant. I guess she has found a place to hide.

Must be safe...

"What are you thinking about? Are you thinking about your sister who you sent away a long time ago? Or are you thinking about your family in Ningyuan City?"

Suddenly, Wen Xiangzhu, who came with Qi Binwei, walked up to Ruan Shuming who was pretending to be unconscious, leaned over and spoke in his ear.

His heartbeat, which had finally calmed down, became disordered again because of Wen Xiangzhu's words.

Are you trying to cheat me?

Ruan Shuming didn't dare to act rashly, as he didn't know what Wen Xiangzhu would do next.

"Stop pretending. Your heart has been in chaos for a long time, and they are all in my hands. I request Your Majesty to hand your family over to me. What do you think I should do?" Wen Xiangzhu chuckled.

Hearing this, Ruan Shuming's heart tightened and his breathing became completely disordered.

This subtle change was immediately caught by Wen Xiangzhu, who was staring at him, and the cruel smile on the corner of his mouth became more intense.

"You're scared."

Ruan Shuming slowly opened his eyes and glanced at Wen Xiangzhu calmly, his eyes full of fatigue. "You haven't killed them yet, which means I still have something you need. Tell me, what do you want and how can you let them go."

Perhaps the effect of the medicine began to take effect. The scars on his body began to itch and the pain was slowly dissipating. Facing Wen Xiangzhu's smiling eyes, he actually had the courage to look him in the face.

Wen Xiangzhu opened his lips slightly and was about to speak, but was interrupted by the bored Qi Binwei beside him, "My dear Wen, I leave this to you."

Wen Xiangzhu turned around, bent down, and watched Qi Binwei leave.

Then he returned to Ruan Shuming and said, "Unfortunately, you are wrong."

"I don't need to get any information from you. Someone will help me find it. It's just that your family is also involved in that matter. I have always been very stingy and will not let go of anyone who has hurt me, and the Ruan family happens to be one of them. As for the reason, you don't need to know."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wen Xiangzhu pulled out the dagger he carried with him, stabbed it quickly and accurately into his dantian, crushing his qi sea, and then pulled it out with his backhand to cut his hand and foot tendons one by one.

In the space of a breath, before Ruan Shuming even felt the pain, Wen Xiangzhu had destroyed all his martial arts skills.

"Ah!" After a moment, Ruan Shuming felt a sharp pain in his body, and the medicinal power of the pill detected that he was injured and immediately healed him.

"Haha, haha." No one knew what happened to Ruan Shuming. He suddenly laughed like a madman. "It's good this way. At least our family will die together. What's the point of you living on? Your family is waiting for you. Why do you want to live on? Otherwise, let's die together..."

Wen Xiangzhu's face was gloomy for a moment, but soon returned to his original expression.

Ruan Shuming was about to die and still wanted to provoke him. He seemed to be in good spirits. However, his Qi Sea was destroyed and he still had the strength to make a sound. Something was wrong...

Ignoring Ruan Shuming's various sarcastic remarks, Wen Xiangzhu stared at the wrist that he had just scratched, and saw that the flesh on it was actually healing little by little. Although it looked very slow to the naked eye, he had used this method to deal with too many disobedient people, and he knew very well what the wound should look like after the tendons of the hands and feet were cut.

Ruan Shuming’s injury is very different.

"interesting."

Wen Xiangzhu chuckled.

He has already investigated everything he wanted to know, and he will deal with those who are related to the extermination of the Wen family one by one.

The Fourth Prince and Chen Muke are already dead, and next is the Ruan family who were accomplices.

Ruan Huaide cares about Ruan Shuming the most. Now that Ruan Shuming is in his hands, how can he let go of such a good opportunity?

I originally wanted to deal with the Ruan family and then go to Linyue City to wipe out the entire Cheng family, but I didn't expect to encounter an unexpected surprise this time.

The only medicine that can have such therapeutic effects is the pills made by the Holy Maiden of the Kongsang tribe, and Ruan Shuming definitely does not have this thing.

The medicine is so powerful that it must have been made by Chao Yan. Besides A Yu, the others who have a good relationship with Chao Yan are Song Qinghong and the emperor.

Your Majesty, that is unlikely.

Then Song Qinghong...

Wen Xiangzhu blinked slightly, withdrew all his thoughts, looked deeply at Ruan Shuming's wrist, and said nothing.

Seeing this, Ruan Shuming, who was originally still chattering, became more and more panicked and uneasy. He had never understood Wen Xiangzhu. When he was in Ningyuan City, he was deceived by Wen Xiangzhu's appearance.

If he had discovered earlier that Wen Xiangzhu was such a person, he would have killed him in Ningyuan City.

It wouldn't have ended up like this, but regret is useless.

The candlelight in the prison flickered slightly, and the intermittent light fell on Wen Xiangzhu's face, making him look mysterious.

"Do you want to survive?" Wen Xiangzhu said expressionlessly.

He said this in an affirmative tone, instead of asking Ruan Shuming.

Ruan Shuming lowered his head, a glimmer of hope burning in his eyes, but it soon dimmed.

"Heh, what new ideas have you come up with to torture me? Just use them, don't test me."

"It seems that you want to live. I will give you a chance." Wen Xiangzhu said slowly, "Tell me who gave you the pill you swallowed. Tell me the answer, and I will let you walk out alive."

The burning and bloody smell coming from his nose and his body's desire for life constantly stimulated Ruan Shuming, but he kept wondering whether what Wen Xiangzhu said was true or false.

"My patience is limited."

"I say! But I have a condition. In addition to me, you must also release my parents and my sister." Ruan Shuming suddenly raised his eyes and looked into Wen Xiangzhu's eyes.

He had a vague answer in his mind, but he was never quite sure.

Although the person he met privately never revealed his true face, he remembered the smell of that person. When Qi Binwei came out today, he smelled that familiar smell again.

He observed everyone, and only one person looked at him without any sense of strangeness.
