A trace of sweat quietly emerged from Guan Ning's forehead. Resistance and endurance became his most struggling options at the moment.

It is obvious that this number one cruel official used horrific methods.

But if that were the case, Guan Ning would be forced to choose the worst-case scenario, and what would happen next?

After thinking it over, he loosened his clenched fists, looked up to the sky, took a deep breath, and decided to believe Qin Yao and Pei Nan!

The silence lasted for a long time.

Su Chang's patience was completely worn out, and a hint of ruthlessness appeared in his eyes, which was far more ruthless than those of the warden of the Heavenly Prison.

next second.

"what!!"

Guan Ning's beast-like roar spread throughout the prison, scaring away the flocks of crows outside.

"Say it or not?!"

"Talk about your mother!"

"How dare you speak so harshly!!"

"..."

Guan Ning's cursing never stopped throughout the entire night. This kind of pain was simply unbearable for a human.

If he had not experienced so much inhuman training in his previous life, including electric shocks, nerve stimulation, etc., he might not have been able to hold on.

In the early morning, Su Chang was breathless and almost exhausted after a night of high-intensity interrogation, but it was still of no avail.

"Master Su, is this all you have? It seems your plan to please Zhao Tai is going to fail."

"Bah..." Guan Ning laughed and spat out another mouthful of blood. His bloodshot eyes were like a winner looking at a loser.

When he gets out, I'm going to teach Su Chang a lesson!

Su Chang's face turned ugly. He was even more angry and embarrassed after being provoked like this. No one had ever been able to punish him, and even Guan Ning was mocking him.

"Little bunny!"

"You are courting death!"

"Bring me the pear blossom knife!" he roared.

"Sir, someone could die..." a jailer warned.

"Give it to me!" Su Chang roared.

The jailer didn't dare to say anything and quickly brought it to him.

The so-called pear blossom knife is a small knife shaped like a pear blossom. Each petal is a blade. Once it is cut, the human body will rot, which is extremely difficult to heal and will cause permanent scars.

It is a very cruel form of punishment with a high mortality rate.

Guan Ning's eyes were burning with anger and his fists were clenched, as if he could break free from the ropes at any time.

"Hehehe, are you scared?!"

"Confess if you're scared!" Su Chang's smile was like that of a devil.

Guan Ning sneered: "Explain, I will explain."

"I was definitely not at Guan Mansion that night..."

Hearing this, Su Chang's eyes suddenly lit up, thinking that he had succeeded.

But then, Guan Ning changed the subject: "Your wife and I booked a room at the restaurant, and she said you are not as good as me."

When these words were spoken, the jailers' scalps went numb.

Su Chang's face instantly turned the color of liver.

"Little bastard!" he roared, completely enraged, and swung the pear blossom knife in his hand directly towards Guan Ning's face without any scruples.

Guan Ning's pupils shrank slightly. The damage caused by this knife was irreversible.

He gritted his teeth, preparing for the worst.

But at the critical moment.

“Spare his life!!”

A loud roar exploded in the prison, accompanied by the rapid sound of iron armor, which seemed to dispel the darkness of the prison.

Suddenly, the whole audience was stunned and looked over in unison.

Su Chang's knife stopped three inches away from Guan Ning's face, just a little bit away from disfiguring Guan Ning, but Guan Ning's hands had already broken free from the rope.

Wow!

The sound of dense footsteps broke into the cell. It was the Imperial Guards, and the leader was the same commander of the Imperial Guards from yesterday.

He panted and raised his promotion: "Sir Su, His Majesty has ordered to release Guan Ning immediately!"

call!

Guan Ning let out a long breath, his back covered in sweat. He knew that it was Pei Nan who was taking action. If the imperial edict did not come, he really would not be able to hold on. At that time, it would really be the worst case scenario, and both sides would suffer losses.

"What did you say?" Su Chang was agitated and unwilling. "I'm about to interrogate him, why are you letting him go?"

The commander of the imperial guards said coldly, "This is His Majesty's intention. His Majesty has already said that this matter has nothing to do with Guan Ning. Guan Ning is innocent!"

"How can it be!"

"He clearly..." Su Chang gritted his teeth. Although he had no hard evidence, he felt that it was Guan Ning.

"Are you questioning His Majesty's intentions?" The commander of the imperial guards narrowed his eyes.

Su Chang shuddered, and no matter how much he was unwilling, he dared not show it. He knelt on the ground in fear and said, "I dare not."
