The next day, on the fifth floor of the Lawless Tower, Mu Longyu sat in front of King Hai Luo and said earnestly, “Hai Luo, this opportunity is rare. You can still come back!”

“What’s there to go back to?” King Hai Luo sneered. “Whether I want to become an immortal or not depends on my own will. If I don’t want to become an immortal, can you force me?”

“His Primordial Spirit Realm is not at its peak, so he can’t become an immortal. He’s afraid of embarrassment,” said Mi Lingyue. “If he doesn’t try, he will never fail, and he can always deny everything.”

“Do you think you can get me to do it by provoking me?” Hai Luo leaned back mockingly.

“Hai Luo, what if I ask your… Master for help? Will you agree then?” Mu Longyu asked.

King Hai Luo snorted. “Are you trying to threaten me? You think he can control me? He’s just a Golden Core…”

Suddenly, footsteps echoed.

King Hai Luo instantly fell silent.

“Hahaha!!!” Man Gu laughed heartily as he looked at Hai Luo. “You are a Heavenly King?! Is this how the Heavenly Kings overseas are? You are actually afraid of a Golden Core Realm cultivator! That’s so funny!”

Mi Lingyue turned to Man Gu. “You should keep a low profile. Otherwise, King Hai Luo will teach you how to behave.”

“Don’t joke with me.” Man Gu sneered. “Do you really think he can threaten me? A Golden Core Realm cultivator? He cannot threaten me even after a hundred years.”

At that moment, footsteps approached again.

A woman in a black robe entered and glanced around before finally arriving at the fifth cell. “Man Gu?”

“What? Did they send someone else to interrogate me? This time, the cultivation realm is acceptable… a thousand times stronger than the previous Golden Core Realm cultivator.”

“I despise those weaker than me,” Man Gu said coldly.

“I’m not here to interrogate you.” The woman in the black robe took out a small box and placed it in front of the prison cell. “The Junior at the Golden Core Realm that you despise told me to give this to you. He said that if you don’t like him, he won’t come. Hope you can appreciate him a little after seeing this.”

After placing the item down, the woman in the black robe left.

“Hahaha…” Man Gu sneered. “He is quite sensible. Unfortunately, he is still at the Golden Core Realm. No matter how much effort he puts in, he is useless.”

However, Zhuang Yuzhen, King Hai Luo, and Mi Lingyue all felt a strange sense of familiarity.

It was going to happen soon!

King Hai Luo’s Master had taken action already. But they weren’t sure.

Zhuang Yuzhen and the others noticed the change in King Hai Luo’s attitude. Bing Qing also noticed it.

She looked a bit curious.

Then, she looked at Man Gu.

Mu Longyu also turned to look. He wanted to see what Jiang Hao had done.

Man Gu took the box. “I want to see what he has sent me. Is he trying to win me over? How naïve!”

“Open it and take a look,” Mi Lingyue said.

She was expectant.

Man Gu snorted disdainfully and opened the box.

He didn’t care because he knew that nothing could faze him. What could someone bring within just twenty days?

It was just a show to win the favor of the crowd.

However, the moment he opened the box, his eyes narrowed.

There were neatly arranged tea leaves in the box.

There was spiritual energy circulating around it.

“This is…” Man Gu shook his head. “This is impossible! How could this be?! Absolutely impossible!!!”

Man Gu roared. “Impossible!!! Don’t try to deceive me! I won’t be fooled! This is fake!”

“Come here and face me!” Man Gu yelled. “How can you threaten me with such a thing? This is ridiculous! What have you done? Why? Why? I want to talk to you! Where is that Golden Core Realm cultivator? Call him here!!!”

“You’re shameless!!! I want to see him! Please! Call him. You can ask me anything. I want the Golden Core Realm cultivator!!!”

Mi Lingyue was shocked. “King Hai Luo, your Master works differently now. Before, he only used words, but now… I got used to him beckoning his victims.”

“Well…” King Hai Luo was numb. “I still think his previous method was better.”

Zhuang Yuzhen nodded.

Before, they had a chance to make up their minds when he beckoned them. However, this method left no space for doubt.

“It’s better not to be too confident, especially in this place.” Mi Lingyue said with emotion. “No one here is just ‘ordinary.’”

No matter how extraordinary the captives were outside, it was better to keep a low profile here, especially when facing Jiang Hao.

The lantern bearer was somewhat surprised. Man Gu had been untouchable.

However, he was begging for Jiang Hao to come and talk to him.

The reason for all the commotion was that Jiang Hao had sent him something. It shook Man Gu very badly.

“It is no wonder he is the only one who can grow the divine flower… Perhaps there is something for me to gain here.”

The lantern bearer felt strange.

Life was sometimes unexpected.

Outside, Yinsha knew what was happening on the fifth floor.

“Senior Sister, what exactly is the thing that can make Man Gu act like this? We should interrogate him now. Why stall?” asked another black-robed woman.

“There is no rush. Junior Brother Jiang will come soon. Let’s delay it for a while,” Yinsha said. “Don’t think too much about Junior Brother Jiang’s methods. Just enjoy this while it lasts.”

The black-robed woman nodded.

“Senior Sister, why do the captives on the fifth floor call Junior Brother Jiang their ‘Master’?” the black-robed woman asked.

She had just returned to the sect from outside where she had been looking for a traitor who had slaughtered some disciples of the sect thirty years ago.

She had killed the traitor and returned to the sect, so she didn’t understand much.

“Before, the fifth floor was just an ordinary floor with cells until we called Junior Brother Jiang for help. Since then, there hasn’t been anyone on the fifth floor that Junior Brother Jiang couldn’t interrogate. Don’t be fooled by the tough talk of the people there. It’s not time yet. They will surrender eventually,” said Yinsha confidently.
