Supreme Return

Chapter 127 Interrogation and Confession

Although people are inherently mortal, they are either heavier than Mount Tai or lighter than a feather.

But when it comes to life and death, how many people can calmly face death?
Not to mention that the father and son Xie Yan and Xie Tingwei are not the kind of people who are not afraid of death.

Therefore, after hearing Chu Xuan's words at this time, although Xie Yan seemed to remain expressionless, there was a bit more hope for life in his eyes.

His dantian has been broken now, and it can even be said that he has become a useless person. He is afraid that there will be no possibility of recovery in his life, but even so, he still hopes to live, even if he is an ordinary person, it is better than dying now. It's all good.

And Xie Tingwei next to him was even more unbearable. Seeing hope from death to life made him forget about other things. He reckoned that even if he kowtowed to Chu Xuan a hundred times, it would be just a simple sentence.

"Can you tell me, who are you?"

Xie Yan looked at Chu Xuan and asked, he really wanted to know who defeated him.

"can!"

Chu Xuan nodded lightly and said, "My name is Chu Xuan!"

"Chu Xuan?"

Xie Yan was taken aback when he heard the words, and then suddenly his pupils shrank, and he said in surprise, "You are Chu Xuan, the son of King Chu? It is said that you are not..."

The words are not finished, but everyone understands the meaning!
It is nothing more than to say that Chu Xuan is a waste son who can't learn magic and martial arts!

Chu Xuan smiled softly, and a wicked arc was drawn at the corner of his mouth, which made Xie Yan's heart tremble when he saw it.

"I see, the rumors are really unbelievable!"

Xie Yan sighed, "Okay, son, just ask what you want to know! I hope you can keep your promise!"

"Hehe, don't worry, I'll ask when everyone arrives later!"

However, Chu Xuan waved his hand and winked at Xiao Yue who was beside him.

Xiao Yue walked out understandingly, but this action made Xie Yan and Xie Tingwei startled, wondering what Chu Xuan was doing?
But about ten minutes later, they understood.

Because a figure walked in quickly from the outside, it was none other than Helian Mu, the guard general of Tiantian City!
"My lord, have you caught someone?"

After entering the house, Helian Mu asked hastily, with hatred and murderous intent in his words.

Looking around at the people in the room, his eyes quickly fixed on the two strangers Xie Yan and Xie Tingwei, "Is it them? Is it?"

"Okay, uncle, calm down first!"

Chu Xuan stepped forward and pulled Helian Mu to the chair beside him to sit down, and then continued, "They are from Soul Refining Palace! And what happened to the soldiers was indeed done by Soul Refining Palace!"

"Really? I'm going to kill them!"

He Lianmu was very impulsive, if not for Chu Xuan's pull, he might have rushed over and smashed the Xie father and son to pieces.

This move scared the two of them.

If it was before his dantian was not abolished, even if the three Helian Mu were added together, they would definitely not be Xie Yan's close enemy, but the situation is different now.

"Uncle, do you trust me?" Chu Xuan asked seriously.

"Ok?"

Helian Mu was taken aback when he heard the words, and then under Chu Xuan's firm gaze, he couldn't help but calm down a little, and nodded in a concentrated voice, "I believe, I believe in you, sir!"

"Leave this matter to me! I will definitely give you and the dead soldiers an explanation!" Chu Xuan continued to say seriously.

"……it is good!"

He Lianmu took a deep look at Chu Xuan, nodded heavily, and then sat on the chair without further impulsiveness.

"Uncle, drink a cup of tea to calm down!"

Chu Xuan personally poured Helian Mu a cup of hot tea, then turned his head to look at Xie's father and son, and asked indifferently, "Tell me, what kind of power is the Soul Refining Palace, and the distribution of its members?" Wait! Remember, I hope you better not lie to me, or..."

"Okay, I said!"

Now that Xie Yan had completely confessed before, Xie Yan did not resist at this time, and said slowly with a dejected expression, "The Soul Refining Palace has not been established for a long time, only about a hundred years, and only experienced two palace lords during this period." !"

"There are three elders under the Palace Master, and I am the third elder who ranks last!"

"Under the elders, there are also three major protectors, who are responsible for foreign affairs!"

"As for the disciples in the palace, there are actually not many, there are only about four hundred in total!"

Hearing what Xie Yan said, Chu Xuan narrowed his eyes.

Although four hundred people might not sound like a lot, if they were all cultivators, it would be a big problem.

Although this seems impossible!
At this time, Xie Yan seemed to see what Chu Xuan was thinking, and Xie Yan continued, "Among the more than 400 people, there are only more than 100 cultivators, and the others are all ordinary warriors or magicians!"

Chu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, more than 100 is not too bad.

And the most important point is that this Xie Yan became the third elder of the Soul Refining Palace in the early stage of Jindan, so it is absolutely impossible for these more than 100 cultivators to be too strong. I am afraid that most of them are in the foundation building stage or fusion stage Bar.

Come to think of it, even if the heartbeat period is not many!
After all, although comprehension is powerful, it is not so easy to cultivate.

With Chu Xuan's current strength in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, it is by no means difficult to kill these more than 100 people.

Thinking of this, Chu Xuan asked again, "Where is your Soul Refining Palace? What are the arrangements? Also, what kind of exercises are you practicing?"

"The Soul Refining Palace is located in the Guiyan Mountain Range about 300 miles away from here. It is a bit like a maze. It is extremely easy for ordinary people to get lost in it. Coupled with our business operations over the years, the entire Guiyan Mountain Range can even be said to be monolithic! "Xie Yan replied directly without hiding anything.

"One piece of iron?"

Chu Xuan couldn't help being a little funny.

"Uh……"

Xie Yan looked a little ugly, but he didn't dare to make any rebuttals, and continued to speak honestly, "When it comes to the layout, there is nothing special about it, it's just that some secret whistles have been arranged with the help of the terrain of the Guiyan Mountains! There are several kinds, and what I practice is the one called "Seven Meridians Refining the Soul Jue"!"

""Seven Meridians Soul Refining Art"?"

Chu Xuan couldn't help frowning when he heard it. This exercise is very strange and he has never heard of it.

But judging from the name, it doesn't seem to be too much of a magic technique!
"The souls and blood of those dead soldiers..." Chu Xuan frowned.

"It was collected by us and provided to the Palace Master for training!" Xie Yan said.

"Your Palace Master..."

Chu Xuan frowned again, "Is it just your Palace Master? Then Miss Zhou Lan from Zhoujiazhuang, is your Palace Master's apprentice?"

"Correct!"

Xie Yan nodded and replied, "The master of the palace is practicing the most advanced "Blood Demon Eater Art" in our Soul Refining Palace. Every month, the souls and blood essence of nine strong men are needed to practice!"

"And the Zhou Lan you mentioned is the only female disciple of our palace lord. Her aptitude is extremely good. The palace lord seems to be training her as the next successor, but..."

At this point, Xie Yan couldn't help hesitating. Seeing this, Chu Xuan immediately frowned and scolded, "Just what? Could it be that you still want to lie to me now?"

"No, it's just that I'm not sure!"

Xie Yan shook his head with a wry smile, and laughed at himself, "Don't look at me as the third elder of the Soul Refining Palace, but it is impossible for me to know many things, even the second elder of the first elder! May trust others!"

"Then what did you mean just now..." Chu Xuan asked with a frown.

"I think that the Palace Master didn't seem to have good intentions to train Zhou Lan, but just used it as a tool!" Xie Yan said.

"Oh?"

Chu Xuan slightly raised his eyebrows, "What do you mean?"

"I can't tell you the specifics!"

Xie Yan shook his head and said, "It's just a feeling!"

"Feel?"

After hearing this, Chu Xuan couldn't help being a little funny.

"I know!"

At this time, Xie Tingwei, who had almost never had a chance to speak, spoke.

"Oh? What do you know?" Chu Xuan immediately turned to look at him.

Xie Yan also changed color when he heard the words, and hurriedly said, "Ting Wei, don't talk nonsense!"

He was worried that if Xie Tingwei said something bad, it would stimulate Chu Xuan to attack their father and son.

"Father, I really know!"

Although Xie Tingwei is indeed a bit unbearable, he still respects Xie Yan.

Now, he said in a concentrated voice, "Once, I overheard a conversation between the Palace Master and the Great Elder, saying that they planned to forcibly refine Junior Sister Zhou Lan when she was 27 years old. I don’t know anymore! The only thing I can be sure of is that the reason why they cultivated so meticulously is really for themselves!”

"Forcibly refining?"

Chu Xuan frowned immediately when he heard the words, and suddenly remembered something, and asked, "By the way, you just said that your palace master is practicing "Blood Devil Soul Eater Art"?"

"Yes!" Xie Yan nodded.

"I see!"

Chu Xuan's eyes lit up, but then there was a cold light flashing, and he said in a cold voice, "They are treating her as the soul of Sanjiu for refining!"

"Thirty-nine souls?"

Xie Yan, father and son Xie Tingwei were at a loss.

"Okay, I know this!"

Chu Xuan waved his hand and didn't explain much. After a pause, he said, "Draw the terrain of the Guiyan Mountain Range, and remember to be more careful! If you can destroy the Soul Refining Palace this time, I will keep my word and definitely Let you father and son live a good life!"

"Yes, thank you, my lord!"

The two father and son nodded, and there was a little more gratitude in their words. I don't know if this is considered cheap?
"Father, you should come!"

Xie Tingwei said that, after all, Xie Yan is the third elder of the Soul Refining Palace, and indeed he knows a lot better than him.

Chu Xuan didn't say much, and put a pen and paper in front of Xie Yan while waving his hand. At this time, Xie Tingwei seemed to suddenly think of something, and asked Chu Xuan, "My lord, do you know a man named Qian Ming?" What about people?"

"Qian Ming? You mean Qian Ming?"

Chu Xuan's expression froze when he heard the words.

"Yes! He is the son of the former Prime Minister Qian Yong! Ever since the Qian family was destroyed, he has been brought back by the Palace Master until now!" Xie Tingwei said.

"Qian Ming is really in your Soul Refining Palace!"

Chu Xuan took a deep breath, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes, which startled Xie Tingwei.

Actually, Chu Xuan almost forgot about Qian Ming.

At the beginning, it was found out that the Qian family was related to the Soul Refining Palace, but for a while, they forgot to ask.

Xie Tingwei's active confession saved Chu Xuan some effort.

"How is he in Soul Refining Palace? A mere Qian Ming, what place is worthy of your Palace Master's help?" Chu Xuan asked in a concentrated voice.
