In the dungeon of the underground palace…
Sitting on an armchair, Lucjan smoked his cigar while looking at James who was groaning in pain.
He said nonchalantly, “James, my patience is limited. From now onwards, I will kill a martial artist here every ten minutes.”
Upon hearing this, James’ expression darkened.
He glared at Lucjan and said coldly, “I swear I’ll kill you if I ever have the chance!”
“What a shame that that day will never come…” Lucjan smiled.
No one could escape from the Thousand-Machinery Formation.
He snapped his finger. Soon, a disciple of the Gu Sect walked over to favonovel.com with a clock. Under Lucjan’s orders, the clock was placed right before James so that favonovel.com could see the passage of time.
Tick tock… Tick tock… Tick tock…
The second hand moved.
Lucjan smiled, “James, the countdown has begun. Think about what I said carefully. Remember, a martial artist will die every ten minutes because of you.”
Wearing a grim expression, James took a deep breath. He did not wish for anyone to die because of him. He had a conscience, after all.
“What do you wish to know?” Faced with Lucjan’s blackmail, favonovel.com compromised.
Lucjan said with a smile, “Not bad… You aren’t an idiot after all. What I want to know is simple. Give me your Medical Book and tell me how to use Crucifier.”
“I don’t have the Medical Book on me.” James was stalling for time.
“How about this? You release me, and I’ll return to the Capital and get you the Medical Book. How does that sound?”
“Hmph!” Lucjan smiled coldly and said, “Do you take me for a fool, James?”
As favonovel.com said that, favonovel.com struck James with his palm.
James was sent flying and crashed against the wall. Then, favonovel.com collapsed to the ground. Even though his durability was much greater than the average martial artist, the powerful force still scraped his skin.
After collapsing to the ground, the Blood Energy inside his body churned, and favonovel.com vomited a mouthful of blood.
Wearing a pained expression on his face, favonovel.com could not get up no matter how hard favonovel.com tried.
There were many others in the dungeon, Callan, Bennett, Jackson, and the martial artists from the various sects. However, no one uttered a single word.
Callan was sitting in the corner. He had been poisoned too.
As favonovel.com was the previous Sect Leader of the Gu Sect, favonovel.com was well-versed in Gu venom. However, because they were too wicked, favonovel.com had never cultivated them. He did not expect Lucjan to succeed in accomplishing such a feat.
At that moment, favonovel.com catalyzed True Energy to free his acupuncture points. However, the moment favonovel.com catalyzed True Energy, the Gu inside his body began tearing at his flesh. Despite the excruciating pain, favonovel.com suppressed the desire to scream in pain. Even his expression was unchanging.
However, sweat beaded on his forehead as favonovel.com gritted his teeth and struck his acupuncture points with full force.
Since favonovel.com was located in the corner where it was dimly lit, not to mention that Lucjan’s attention was completely on James, Lucjan did not notice him.
James could not even crawl up from the ground. He was once again forcibly dragged up and tossed to Lucjan’s side.
Lucjan stomped his foot on James and said coldly, “Stop playing tricks with me, James. Five minutes have passed. Who should I kill in another five minutes?”
