One hundred degrees of hot water poured down, and the man merely frowned slightly. But it wasn't over yet. The other person pressed another button, and suddenly a dozen fibers began to pull simultaneously. The tearing pain made the man frown even more.
The person laughed heartily and said, "Old fossil, you still dare to use your mental influence on us?"
"Crack!"
Suddenly, a hand reached out and snapped the man's neck.
Before the other two could understand what was happening, they were both knocked unconscious by Ye Tian's two palms.
He pressed a button, and the door closed automatically. Then, with a flick of his finger, the surveillance cameras above all malfunctioned. Immediately after, he stepped out of his invisibility cloak.
The man's eyes widened. He scanned Ye Tian up and down, then suddenly asked, "Your Excellency, are you a Human Immortal?"
Ye Tian took out the Heavenly Fiend Sword and, with a few light swings, severed the fibers and shackles. He then asked, "Is your cultivation still there?"
The man replied, "Although I've been tortured for many years, I can still fight!"
Ye Tian nodded. "I was sent by the country to rescue you. My surname is Ye. You are Chen Shuqi, right? Why did the Japanese detain you?"
Chen Shuqi explained, "When they invaded our country back then, I led my subordinates and specifically targeted Japanese military officers for assassination. But I was careless. After killing less than twenty officers, I fell into their trap and was captured and brought here. My subordinates, fearing repercussions, dared not assassinate any more Japanese officers."
Ye Tian inquired, "Your subordinates? Are you an organization?"
Chen Shuqi replied, "At that time, we were the most powerful assassin organization, known as Tian Ci."
Ye Tian said, "Senior Chen, I'll leave the people outside to you. I'll rescue everyone else and then we'll leave together."
Chen Shuqi flashed a cruel smile and said, "Alright, the outside is mine!"
Ye Tian tossed him a pill to restore his energy, then opened the door.
Chen Shuqi walked out, while Ye Tian used the Heavenly Fiend Sword to open the remaining six doors one by one. No matter how sturdy these doors were, they couldn't withstand the sharp Heavenly Fiend Sword. With a few swift moves, he could cleave them open and rescue the imprisoned individuals.
Among the imprisoned experts were three Human Immortal-level powerhouses, and the rest were all Martial King-level existences.
Releasing each person was akin to unleashing a fierce beast. Thus, when Ye Tian opened the last door and led the people out, the area outside was already littered with corpses.
Subsequently, Ye Tian unleashed his divine sense and quickly located where Yin Hu was being held. Yin Hu was in another passage, which also had several doors. Ye Tian rescued everyone inside.
When he opened the door where Yin Hu was imprisoned, he saw a naked woman suspended in mid-air, covered in wounds. However, her eyes were bright, and she stared coldly at the doorway, as if nothing in the world could make her yield.
As Ye Tian entered, she was initially puzzled, then seemed to understand something and asked, "Are you sent from above to grant me release?"
Ye Tian leaped into the air, severed the chains that held her, and then carried her to the ground. The woman was severely injured and had lost the ability to move.
He took off his jacket, wrapped it around her, and as they walked out, he said, "The country will not abandon you. I'm here to rescue you. My surname is Ye, and like you, I am an elite agent."
Tears of relief welled up in Yin Hu's eyes. She had long given up hope, never expecting to leave alive.
"You are more powerful than me," she said.
Ye Tian replied, "Of course. Otherwise, how could I have come to rescue you?"
Yin Hu added, "Many of our people are imprisoned here."
Ye Tian assured her, "Don't worry, I will rescue every single one of them."
Upon returning to the main hall, Ye Tian found that Chen Shuqi and his group had already taken control of the entire underground prison.
Yin Hu tightened her clothes and said, "Brother Ye, please set me down."
Ye Tian then placed her on the ground. Yin Hu managed to stand there and said, "Everyone, there are still over a hundred prisoners from various countries held here. Why don't we rescue them all?"
Upon hearing this, everyone agreed it was a good idea and immediately went to the various passages to rescue the captives. In less than ten minutes, over a hundred people joined them in the hall. They came from different countries and ethnicities, including men and women, the elderly and the young.
Ye Tian looked around, secretly astonished. Most of these people were Human Immortal level. How had the Japanese managed to imprison them?
