"Li brother, long time no see."
Deep within Wang Xiao's sea of consciousness, Li Xuan's spiritual sense finally managed to awaken Wang Fatty's memories. As Wang Fatty's voice echoed, Li Xuan's spiritual sense let out a slight sigh of relief.
"We'll talk more later," Li Xuan transmitted mentally, then quickly ascended towards the sea of consciousness, holding Wang Fatty's spiritual platform.
At this moment, seeing that Li Xuan and the other two were performing some kind of ritual on Wang Xiao, Xiu Jun's fear subsided. After all, according to the intelligence he had obtained, Li Xuan possessed a strength at the Shiyuan realm. Now with two more individuals, even though Xiu Jun was at the peak of the Shiyuan realm, he was no match for Li Xuan's numbers.
"It seems this child is the key," Xiu Jun realized, becoming even more certain that Li Xuan and the other two knew the secret. The key to unlocking it must be this child before him.
With this thought, Xiu Jun immediately struck out with a palm towards Jiao Le.
"Scram!"
Just as Xiu Jun's palm was about to land on Jiao Le's back, Jiao Le's eyes suddenly snapped open, followed by a furious roar. In the next instant, a terrifying force erupted, sending Xiu Jun flying backward.
*Puff!*
Xiu Jun spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes wide with shock. With just a single word, he had been severely injured! Xiu Jun was filled with regret, but before he could think further, his consciousness jolted, and he fainted.
Time passed, and an hour later, Li Xuan, Jiao Le, and Shi Lezhi opened their eyes simultaneously. Their complexions were all somewhat pale, indicating the process had been quite taxing.
"It's not bad. Now it depends on him to integrate the memories himself," Shi Lezhi said with a sigh of relief. Then, his gaze shifted, falling upon Xiu Jun who lay not far away.
"I was careless. I almost got ambushed by a mere junior from the Shiyuan realm," Jiao Le also sighed with relief and said.
Li Xuan looked at Xiu Jun and replied, "This person likely came for me. I almost brought trouble to you both, seniors."
Jiao Le smiled and waved his hand. "We decided to help this little fatty enter the cycle of reincarnation. This was the cause. Today's events are the fruit of that cause. Alright, this person is yours to deal with."
After speaking, Jiao Le moved and entered the Zhen Prison. Shi Lezhi also nodded at Li Xuan before disappearing.
Seeing this, Li Xuan walked towards Xiu Jun, and in the next moment, his weapon, Chong Feng, appeared in his hand.
*Chira!*
With several tearing sounds, Xiu Jun's hand and leg tendons were cleanly severed by Li Xuan. Furthermore, Li Xuan channeled his sword intent into Xiu Jun's Dantian, suppressing it.
"Wake up!"
Li Xuan let out a low shout and then punched Xiu Jun directly in the abdomen.
*Hmph.*
With a dull groan, Xiu Jun's eyes slowly opened. In the next instant, an intense pain washed over him, turning his face deathly pale.
"What, what have you done to me!" Xiu Jun's expression changed drastically, and he looked at Li Xuan in panic as he found he couldn't mobilize the spiritual energy in his Dantian.
Li Xuan pointed Chong Feng at Xiu Jun's forehead and said sternly, "I ask, you answer. If I am not satisfied, I cannot guarantee the consequences."
Xiu Jun snorted, "You dream if you think you can extract information from me!"
Li Xuan smiled slightly and, with a thought, stirred the sword energy within Xiu Jun's Dantian. In the next moment, Xiu Jun's face turned ashen, and large beads of sweat dripped from his brow.
"You have one more chance, or I won't hesitate to enter your sea of consciousness," Li Xuan said with a smile. He casually slid Chong Feng, causing more wounds to appear on Xiu Jun's body.
"You ask!" Xiu Jun could not endure the agonizing pain from his Dantian. Moreover, if his Dantian were destroyed, he would be crippled.
Li Xuan nodded in satisfaction. "Name."
"Xiu Jun!" Xiu Jun immediately replied.
Li Xuan nodded. "Tell me, why do your Asura tribe and Rakshasa tribe target the scattered humans?"
Xiu Jun fell silent. As he felt the sword energy in his Dantian surge again, he said, "It all stems from the sacred scripture of the scattered humans."
"Sacred scripture?" Li Xuan frowned, then looked at Xiu Jun with interest. "Tell me everything you know, bit by bit. Of course, you can choose to omit some details."
Xiu Jun now knew for certain that Li Xuan was completely unaware of the secret, otherwise, he would not be asking about this matter. As for omitting details, Xiu Jun dared not.
