Ye Xunhuan’s guess was correct; after Dragon Ancestor Bodhi took the granny away with Xiaojie and Song Yan, she could not restrain herself from interrogating the granny!

Despite being a woman, and a beautiful one at that, Dragon Ancestor Bodhi had no mercy when it came to interrogation.

It’s no exaggeration to say that the phrase "a woman’s heart is most poisonous" was fully exhibited by her during those moments she interrogated the granny!

Meanwhile, Tian Sha did not escape either.

Facing Dragon Ancestor Bodhi’s interrogation, even Song Yan next to her felt his heart palpitate and could hardly bear to watch.

Even at that moment, an idea couldn’t help but arise in Song Yan’s mind—that Dragon Ancestor Bodhi was fortunate not to have been born during the era of King Zhou of Shang, otherwise, she would have outdone the infamous Daji!

Dragon Ancestor Bodhi first pierced the granny’s blood vessels with needles, allowing blood to slowly spray out; she then hung the granny up and pulled out her teeth one by one. She had Xiaojie find leeches in the middle of the night to let them burrow into the granny’s body...

In short, she utilized almost every method at her disposal,

However, strictly speaking, it can’t be said that Dragon Ancestor Bodhi was too cruel since living in the underworld demands harsh actions and a ruthless heart to maintain a foothold there.

After four long hours of interrogation by Dragon Ancestor Bodhi, the granny finally couldn’t endure it and spoke up.

"You found out something?"

"Of course!" Dragon Ancestor Bodhi said somewhat proudly and arrogantly, "Would anything remain hidden when I, Miss, am on the case?"

Ye Xunhuan didn’t care about the methods used by Dragon Ancestor Bodhi. He only cared about what she had managed to find out.

On hearing Dragon Ancestor Bodhi’s words, Ye Xunhuan immediately became interested and looked at her, "What did you find out?"

"Lin Zhenbei is from Shu Mountain, holds a high position, and, did you kill one of Lin Zhenbei’s brothers?"

"Yes!"

"Lin Zhenbei’s brother held an even higher position in Shu Mountain than Lin Zhenbei. If he is dead, Shu Mountain will definitely target you. Furthermore, there is someone named Lin Zhetian, he is Shu Mountain’s finest disciple. You severely wounded him, and now his life or death is unknown. Shu Mountain will definitely not let you go!" Dragon Ancestor Bodhi said dispassionately, "And now, Lin Zhennan has probably already contacted the people of Shu Mountain!"

"Congratulations, you might soon become Shu Mountain’s number one public enemy!" Dragon Ancestor Bodhi said with a bit of schadenfreude, "And this is when they don’t know that you are the marshal. If they find out, their pursuit will only become more frantic!"

"Marshal, no one can resist the temptation of the item in your possession, whether it’s useful to steal or not, having it in your own hands is certainly better than in someone else’s, right?"

Ye Xunhuan wholly agreed with Dragon Ancestor Bodhi’s words. Regardless of whether the Taiji Seal was useful to him, having it in his own hands was definitely better than in someone else’s, and that was correct.

"What else did you find out?"

"She came to Jiangzhong City to meet with someone named Pei Ximing. According to her, Pei Ximing also wants you dead without a grave!" Dragon Ancestor Bodhi said indifferently, "Lin Zhetian was initially with Pei Ximing, but yesterday afternoon, he was sent back to the capital!"

"Even if you want to eliminate the roots, it’s already too late!"

Pei Ximing!

On hearing these three words, Ye Xunhuan’s expression immediately turned ugly.

The Pei family has been pulling so many strings in the dark, did they really think he was harmless?

Did they really think that if a tiger doesn’t show its might, it’s a sick cat?

"As for Tian Sha, he seems to truly know nothing. I couldn’t find out anything from him!" Dragon Ancestor Bodhi appeared quite helpless as she said, "If you want to find his sister, it’s going to take some effort!"

Dragon Ancestor Bodhi had also spared no effort on Tian Sha, but she had never managed to get anything out of him, which filled her with helplessness.

She had thought that Tian Sha still had something left unsaid, but who knew that this guy couldn’t say anything anymore.

"You didn’t kill Tian Sha, did you?"

"No!" Dragon Ancestor Bodhi shook her head directly, "Neither Tian Sha nor the old lady were killed by me, but that old lady might find it very difficult to survive!"

"What happened?"

"You’ll know if you torture her a bit!"

Ye Xunhuan’s lips couldn’t help but twitch.

Am I sick, telling you to go torture a bit!

"Why don’t you let me torture you a bit?"

"Come on, in bed, we can hurt each other, torment each other, okay?"

Saying this, Dragon Ancestor Bodhi winked at Ye Xunhuan, her intention to tease clear without words.

Seeing Dragon Ancestor Bodhi like this, Ye Xunhuan slowly began to feel a sense of powerlessness!

"I’m not into masochism, go play with someone else!" Ye Xunhuan said lightly.

"Tsk!" Dragon Ancestor Bodhi scoffed, disdaining him: "I just want to find you!"

"I don’t want to find you!"

"Even if your wife dies in front of me next time, I definitely won’t ask!" Dragon Ancestor Bodhi crossed her arms, "It’s not my kill anyway!"

"Plus, neither you nor I know who Tian Sha’s sister is, where Antonio is, or when they might strike again!"

After hearing the phrase "strike again," Ye Xunhuan’s face slightly changed.

Antonio wasn’t dead and was now allied with Tian Sha’s sister. If they were to act again, their planning would certainly be more meticulous and cautious than today’s!

"Did you manage to get from that old lady whether Tian Sha has teamed up with the Lin family or not?" Ye Xunhuan asked Dragon Ancestor Bodhi in a soft voice.

This time, Dragon Ancestor Bodhi stopped joking with Ye Xunhuan and said earnestly, "No, I just heard that old hag say she came to check things out after hearing about the emperor’s corporation catching fire, but she didn’t expect to run into this kind of incident halfway!"

"In a moment of decision, the old lady tried to capture Qiu Ruoxi!" Dragon Ancestor Bodhi said sympathetically: "But she didn’t expect to encounter Song Yan!"

"She also didn’t expect you to arrive so quickly."

With that, Dragon Ancestor Bodhi’s tone shifted: "This time, Qiu Ruoxi was lucky to escape the ordeal, but next time, she might not be so lucky!"

Dragon Ancestor Bodhi was right, this time Qiu Ruoxi was merely lucky. If it hadn’t been for her, Dragon Ancestor Bodhi, showing up, Qiu Ruoxi would have been taken away by Tian Sha long ago, and by the time Song Yan arrived, everything would likely have been settled, and of course, the old lady wouldn’t have had the chance to meet Ye Xunhuan either!

Ye Xunhuan fell into silence.

Dragon Ancestor Bodhi was right, this time was luck, but next time there might not be such good fortune.

He, Ye Xunhuan, must be on guard just in case!
