He knew that every man was merely a tool for Zhao Xiaoli. Would she do this for his sake?

He looked down at the bamboo tube in his hand. He would be a fool to plant a Gu worm on himself.

“Don’t you like playing with Gu worms? Try it yourself.”

He stayed by the pool for a while longer before heading back.

In Jun Lin Hall’s water prison…

The two prisoners were chained to a cross-shaped pillar. Blood-red wounds covered their bodies, and water droplets rolled off their heads. They were also drenched.

However, they did not say a word. They gritted their teeth and endured the pain until they fainted and were woken up by cold water.

“You’re stubborn.”

MO Aotian arrived wearing a mask on his face.

His gaze was strangely calm, but he had every intention of killing them.

“Detain them for interrogation. I want to see how stubborn they are,” he instructed the guards in the water prison.

Soon, the two prisoners were locked up separately.

Gu Chi glanced at MO Aotian and asked, “Is that useful?”

They were so tight-lipped it was almost like they had their tongues removed. Detaining them in separate cells would probably be useless too, right?

“How will we know if we don’t try?” MO Aotian retorted.

There was no other choice. He could only give it a try and see if he could obtain any information from them.

“Didn’t they just spread some rumors? For them to be so tight-lipped, there must be a bigger secret.”

“Cut the crap,” Gu Chi said coldly.

He could not stand hearing him state the obvious anymore. With that, he turned around and walked into a cell.

“Waterside Glutton Stone? What is that?”

An Jiuyue was refining medicine in her room.

The spies had refused to speak since their capture, so she decided to refine a medicinal fog that would force people to tell the truth even without consuming it. She would make them reveal everything they could not say.

She had refined the medicinal fog, and all that was left was the antidote. The medicinal fog would spread once she opened the bottle’s lid. Without the antidote, the prisoners they wanted to interrogate would not be the only ones affected.

Just as she retracted her demonic energy and was about to check if the antidote was done, she heard Wei Na speak to her.

She tried to recall what she had seen in the past, but she had never seen a Waterside Glutton Stone.

It was probably something unique to Wulong Mountain. Otherwise, that little thing she was raising in her space on behalf of Qian Jiyun would not have asked Wei Na for it, and she would not have heard about this from Wei Na. “Master, don’t ask me. I don’t know either.” Wei Na spread his hands in the space.

It would be great if he knew. He would be able to tell his master where she could find the Waterside Glutton Stone and give it to that thing.

“Why don’t you ask your man?”

Qian Jiyun had been at Wulong Mountain for so many years. He should know something, right?

“Yes, I’ll ask.”

An Jiuyue nodded. She could only ask Qian Jiyun about things she did not know..
