There's Something Wrong With This Account

Chapter 332: 332. [Whose words are the most suitable to fabricate?]

Within the Lost Forest, on the ruins of the altar, Yin Tian was held by the throat by Gongshu Pan, his feet dangling in the air. Listening to Gongshu Pan’s words, his thin lips curl into a smirk.

He did not speak, nor was he likely to answer Gongshu Pan’s question.

Gongshu Pan, with his dark face, looked at him with a cold gaze, said, “I didn’t expect you to answer me immediately, but you can rest assured, I have ways to uncover your identity. The Demon Sect has the power to exhaust all possibilities in our investigation.”

Lu Xun and the others flew onto the ruins, standing behind Gongshu Pan, their eyes coldly observing Yin Tian.

Mao Nanbei was perched on Lu Xun’s shoulder, her back slightly arched.

If she hadn’t temporarily lost her Cultivation Base, she would probably have jumped off and slashed him twice to vent her anger.

“Younger Nephew Gongshu.” Lu Xun called out.

“What can I do for you, Uncle?” Gongshu Pan asked.

“Disable his cultivation.” Lu Xun said, looking straight at Yin Tian.

“Alright.” Gongshu Pan affirmed.

He raised his left hand, striking Yin Tian’s abdomen with his palm.

A black aura swirled around him before flowing into Yin Tian’s body, wreaking havoc on his internal structure.

In just a few breaths, Gongshu Pan disabled Yin Tian’s Cultivation Base, then he discarded Yin Tian onto the ruins like a sack of dirt with a flick of his hand.

“Hand him over to me. Let me have a private chat with him.” suggested Lu Xun.

“Yes.” Gongshu Pan and the others left the scene.

Lu Xun also put down Mao Nanbei from his shoulder, placing her into Little Chan’s arms.

At this point, only Lu Xun and Yin Tian were left on the ruins of the altar.

The conversation that followed would be much easier as a result.

After all, Gongshu Pan respects rules and regulations when dealing with internal matters. If Lu Xun asked him to leave, he definitely wouldn’t employ his Divine Sense to eavesdrop.

“What’s your name?” Lu Xun asked calmly.

Yin Tian, with blood on the corner of his mouth, looked at this extremely attractive man, endured the excruciating pain in his body, and chuckled, “Don’t bother. Just kill me. You won’t get anything out of me.”

“I know.” replied Lu Xun placidly.

He squatted down, looking at Yin Tian who had lost his right arm, an eye, and even half of his left shoulder, and said:

“I know you won’t say anything because you can’t say anything, can you? You scum from outside the Heavenly Dust Continent!”

Upon hearing Lu Xun’s words, the pupils of Yin Tian’s remaining eye couldn’t help but contract slightly.

Lu Xun picked up a stone slab from the ground and lightly slapped Yin Tian’s left cheek, saying, “Are you wondering how I knew you’re not from the Heavenly Dust Continent?”

“Did you think you were very mysterious?”

“Did you think if you didn’t say anything, I’d be distressed?”

“Did you think you could see a helpless, resentful version of me before you die?”

“Tsk tsk, that arrogant look in your eyes just now, it’s really annoying.”

With every slap on his cheek, Lu Xun would say a sentence. Each sentence cut to Yin Tian’s core.

Finally, he struck Yin Tian’s cheek a bit harder with the stone slab, and said word for word:

“Your name is Yin Tian, and you come from the Yinling Clan.”

From this point on, Yin Tian, who was lying on the ground like an old dog, felt cold all over.

Looking at Lu Xun’s mocking expression and indescribable face, the corner of his mouth couldn’t help but ooze fresh blood.

It was mentioned earlier that Lu Xun had seen some of Yin Tian’s details on the forum.

In a great battle, when playing as the Explosive Temper Great Cane Hero, he was killed twice by Yin Tian, losing a lot of Experience Points in the process.

This was an old grudge.

Who would’ve thought that after crossing over, it would be him attacking himself.

Although he didn’t know why, this was a new vendetta.

The most unforgivable thing for him was the sacrifice Mao Nanbei made in the attack to protect him!

Even though the little black cat seemed alright now, he knew there was more than meets the eye.

Even if she had nine lives like she claimed, in Lu Xun’s eyes, each life was precious.

“Who the hell do you think you are, that your life is worth my fourth sister’s life?”

He vowed to remember this grudge, vowing to make the entire foreign race repay a thousand-fold!

Back to the main subject, although Lu Xun was alone with Yin Tian, acting as if he was interrogating him, he didn’t actually have any real expectations of learning anything.

Back in his past life, when he was playing games, players would capture members of the foreign race and interrogate them, hoping to gain some information and trigger hidden storylines.

But it rarely worked.

The reason was simple. Every foreigner who came to the Heavenly Dust Continent carried a curse in their bloodline, which they referred to as the Blood Pact.

If they ever uttered any words containing crucial information, the Blood Pact would activate. Likewise, if they even thought about betraying their race, the Blood Pact would again activate.

Its effects were many and varied, severely limiting the use of captive foreigners for interrogation.

The result was that they either remained silent or, even if tortured until they wanted to speak, they would burn from within and die as soon as they opened their mouths.

This was why, when Lu Xun crossed over to this world, despite the battle between the Heavenly Dust Continent and the foreigners having reached its latter stages, many secrets remained undiscovered.

Lu Xun himself had once been stubborn enough to personally interrogate numerous foreigners, but was always left empty-handed.

That was why, in Lotus Village, he had killed all the foreigners without leaving any survivors.

Secrets had to be discovered through one’s own efforts, slowly and patiently. Interrogation didn’t seem to yield any results.

The reason why he wanted to have a private conversation with Yin Tian was because the latter was a high-ranking member of the foreign race.

Also, he had other plans in mind.

“Surprised?” Lu Xun raised an eyebrow, staring at Yin Tian’s single eye.

“Who exactly are you!” Yin Tian ground his teeth in fury.

He simply couldn’t comprehend how Lu Xun could know all this.

Under what authority did Lu Xun know all this!

Lu Xun didn’t answer him, but began to walk around the ruins of the foreign race’s altar, eventually coming across the shattered three-eyed statue.

The three narrow eyes, still looking decidedly eerie, gave off the impression of a creature that was always watching you, regardless of where you stood.

Lu Xun was uncomfortable. He swung a burst of Finger-tip Sword Qi and smashed the statue into pieces.

Then, without putting away his Sword Qi, he walked to Yin Tian’s side, wielding it as if it were nothing.

“If I had known nothing and tortured you without getting any answers, you would have been quite smug, wouldn’t you?” he asked.

“Just thinking about your smug expression makes me sick,” Lu Xun continued.

He looked at him with a cold gaze, saying, “You hurt my fourth sister. I won’t let you die so easily.”

“You must be very curious, why I know so much about what’s going on?”

“Yin Tian, have you forgotten? All these secrets were told by you!” Lu Xun solemnly stated as if it was the truth.

Yin Tian suddenly lifted his head, his single eye fixed on Lu Xun.

“I will tell everyone that everything I know about you bastards was told to me by you,” said Lu Xun.

Yin Tian understood in an instant what he meant. His lips started to tremble, and for a moment, he was at a loss for words.

Lu Xun crouched down in front of him, softly yet calmly saying, “It seems that you didn’t take my nephew’s words to heart.”

“You came to ambush me and hurt my fourth sister. One life won’t be enough to repay.”

“I will make you pay a price that’s beyond your imagination.”

As he spoke, Lu Xun gave him his usual warm smile, though his eyes were cold.

“Remember what I just said!”

“From this moment on, every bit of news I share with the outside world about you bastards, it’s all from your mouth!”

This was Lu Xun’s ultimate goal, and the first step in his revenge on the foreign race.

At that moment, the ever arrogant Yin Tian, for the first time, truly felt fear.
