"No, no, no, it seems you have no new understanding of this matter."
Ye Cangtian waved his hand and said with a smile, "Now I not only have your handle, but also your life. Do you think if you know so much and don't work for me, I will let you go?"
"Hmph!"
Hearing this, Hasal showed no fear and still snorted coldly.
He looked at Ye Cangtian with disdain and said, "Ye Cangtian, is it just death! I'll fight it out today and not help you! If you can, then destroy me!"
As he spoke, Hasal drew his long sword and struck a pose as if he was going to fight Ye Cangtian to the death.
There was no other way. In his eyes, Ye Cangtian was an absolute villain. If he agreed to the other party again this time, there would be a next time.
This kind of thing was endless.
So, rather than being endlessly enslaved by Ye Cangtian, he might as well resist with all his might. Even death would be a release for him.
"Heh heh, alright, since you want to die, I can fulfill your wish!"
"But before I fulfill your wish, I will let you experience a different feeling!"
Ye Cangtian smiled wickedly, and his celestial eye had already opened between his brows.
On the other side, Hasal did not notice any abnormality. Seeing that Ye Cangtian had no intention of making a move, he spoke again.
"Ye Cangtian, although this place is at the foot of Bright Mountain and still some distance from the Hall of Light."
"But the people living around here are all from the Hall of Light!"
"Once anything happens here, not only will people from the Hall of Light come to support, but someone will also report the situation here to the Pope. At that time, you will surely be unable to escape!"
Facing Hasal's threat, Ye Cangtian sneered and said, "Do you think I would come here if I were afraid of the Pope?"
This...
Cold sweat broke out on Hasal's forehead. The fact that Ye Cangtian dared to come here meant that the other party had gone mad and completely disregarded his life.
And his attempt to scare the other party was impossible. Thinking about it now, this behavior was somewhat foolish.
Thinking of this, Hasal gritted his teeth and let out a roar, charging towards Ye Cangtian.
He truly did not want to be used by Ye Cangtian anymore, and now he had no other way to escape, so he could only fight the other party to the death!
Heh heh!
Facing the long sword that stabbed out like a rainbow, a cold smile of disdain appeared on Ye Cangtian's face.
With a flash of his large hand, a dark golden light flashed. With a "crack" sound, the Death Scythe directly cut off the long sword.
Immediately after, Ye Cangtian flickered and his other hand reached out, directly grabbing Hasal by the neck.
The battle ended in an instant.
Hasal's eyes widened, revealing an incredulous look.
He knew that Ye Cangtian's current strength was difficult to deal with, but he never expected that Ye Cangtian would be so powerful.
"Hasal, you are a smart person."
"I will remind you one last time, the next thing will be very painful, believe me, no one can endure it!"
"So, I hope you will think about it carefully one last time!"
Ye Cangtian glanced at Hasal and spoke directly, completely ignoring the astonished expression on the other party's face.
"Ye Cangtian, who are you looking down on?"
"I'm not afraid of death, so why would I be afraid of pain? It's a huge joke! Ah..."
Hearing Ye Cangtian's words, Hasal's face showed extreme contempt, but before he could finish, he let out a scream.
At that moment, he seemed to have forgotten time and space, and only felt unbearable pain.
After a short while, Ye Cangtian withdrew his soul power. He used this method only to let the other party feel it first.
After Hasal recovered, he said slowly, "Hasal, that was only half a minute. If you like it, we can continue!"
"No! Don't, please let me go!"
"I promise you, no matter what it is, I will promise you!"
At this moment, Hasal seemed like a different person, his eyes filled with fear.
Even though it was only half a minute, only he knew how terrifying the pain was and that he really didn't want to experience it again.
"Heh heh, I knew you were a smart person!"
"Since you've agreed, I'll give you a chance!"
"Listen carefully, I will now plant a soul imprint on you. I guarantee you will taste a more refreshing feeling than just now!"
Ye Cangtian smiled slightly, and his celestial eye instantly shot out a soul force, directly imprinted on Hasal's forehead.
Hasal held a high position in the outer hall of the Hall of Light, second only to one person.
Especially since he was responsible for contact with external operations, he must have known a lot of information.
Therefore, Ye Cangtian decided to plant a soul imprint on him.
In this way, he could also know the news of any action taken by the Hall of Light in time.
On the other side, Hasal had no choice. To avoid suffering that excruciating pain again, he could only choose to accept the imprint.
However, after he accepted the imprint, he realized the horror of the imprint.
Even if he had the slightest thought of defying Ye Cangtian, his soul would experience unbearable pain.
After trying several times, Hasal knelt on the ground in pain, his face filled with terror, and tears streaming down his face.
He knew that he could not resist the soul imprint, which meant that he was destined to betray the Hall of Light.
"Hasal, as long as you serve me loyally, I can give you everything the Hall of Light can give you!"
"So, now wipe away your hypocritical tears!"
Seeing Hasal's pained expression, Ye Cangtian felt inexplicably annoyed. He frowned and said.
"Yes, Master!"
As soon as Hasal heard Ye Cangtian's words, he shivered and quickly responded. He rubbed his face a few times, wiping away his tears.
"You don't need to call me Master, just call me Mr. Ye."
Ye Cangtian corrected his title and then got straight to the point, saying, "Now tell me, where exactly is Darrus?"
"Darrus is in Bright City now, but I don't know his exact location..."
Hasal quickly replied.
Now that Darrus had completed his mission, he had become the Pope's new favorite.
So many people were trying to curry favor with him, and he was invited out almost every day. He might be enjoying himself somewhere right now!
Hmm?
Hearing this, Ye Cangtian frowned. After planting the soul imprint on Hasal, he knew that the other party would never dare to lie.
He pondered for a moment and spoke again, "Can you find out Darrus's specific location?"
"It's a bit difficult."
Hasal was afraid that Ye Cangtian wouldn't believe him, so he quickly explained.
He was also a favorite of the Pope before, and now that Darrus was competing for favor with him, many people thought that their relationship was not good.
Therefore, while trying to curry favor with Darrus, they would try to avoid Hasal.
Because of this, Hasal could not control Darrus's specific whereabouts.
However, Hasal stated that he still had some old subordinates, and he could inquire about it through them, but it would take some time.
Hearing this, Ye Cangtian nodded slowly and said, "Alright, I'll leave Darrus's matter to you. Notify me as soon as there's a clue."
"Yes, sir." Hasal immediately agreed.
Seeing this, Ye Cangtian smiled with satisfaction and then changed the subject, "By the way, do you know the Saint De Hotel?"
Uh...
Hasal was stunned. What was the relationship between the Saint De Hotel and Ye Cangtian?
So he said cautiously, "It's like this, after Idi died, I couldn't bear to see my old friend's family decline, so I took care of them a little. Does Mr. Ye need anything?"
Heh heh!
Taking care of them a little? I think after killing Idi, you felt guilty in your heart!
And while taking care of them, you probably pocketed quite a bit of money!
Ye Cangtian sneered inwardly and then said, "I just wanted to rent a presidential suite there, but I was driven out. They also said that it was under your protection and advised me to be sensible..."
Upon hearing this, Hasal's face immediately turned ugly.
So this was the case. This damned Saint De Hotel was always causing trouble for him. If it weren't for them, Ye Cangtian might not have remembered him at all!
Thinking this, he quickly said, "Mr. Ye, just say what you want to do with this matter!"
"I said, I just want to rent a presidential suite, but you'll have to accompany me there personally."
Ye Cangtian's voice came through. How could Hasal dare to refuse?
He quickly changed into another set of clothes and then left the room with Ye Cangtian.
