Chapter 635: Chapter 424 Threats and Interrogation

Lu Family, Lu Qing sat in the quiet room.

Outside were the playful sounds of Little Yan and Little Li.

He listened for a while, then smiled and closed his eyes, allowing his heart and spirit to enter the Leaving Fire Tripod.

“Young Master.”

Upon seeing Lu Qing enter, “Yan” greeted him respectfully.

“Hmm.”

Lu Qing sensed the change in Yan’s attitude.

However, he did not correct it, only nodding and then looking toward the central position of the Spiritual Artifact Space.

There, a figure was trapped in a spatial cage, eyes vacant, face occasionally showing signs of pain, as if experiencing something terrifying.

“Young Master, the grey-robed man has not woken up since being confined here.

Moreover, I used most of my power to form the spatial cage; he cannot escape.”

When Yan said this, he was also secretly amazed.

He could naturally see that the grey-robed man was caught in an illusion.

But he couldn’t understand, how could such an illusion be so terrifying?

To make a Golden Core Early Stage expert remain trapped and unable to wake up.

From where did Young Master learn such an illusion technique?

The display of the Mistaken Divine Skills was silent and imperceptible.

Lu Qing had never shown this trump card, and previously only used it twice in combat with the white-robed youth, each broken in a very short time.

Thus, Yan did not know that Lu Qing, apart from Physical Body Divine Power, also mastered a Divine Soul Divine Ability.

“Not bad.” Lu Qing praised.

With a wave of his hand, a divine soul wave released, dispersing the power entangled at the grey-robed man’s forehead acupoint.

After a while, a gleam appeared in the grey-robed man’s eyes as he slowly regained consciousness.

Upon waking and realizing his situation, he panicked, intending to break free.

But suddenly, his gaze caught sight of the two figures in front of him, and his body stiffened.

The mana contained within his Golden Core abruptly ceased, not daring to move further.

“You are perceptive,” Lu Qing smiled faintly, “Otherwise, I would let you wake in the illusion realm for a few more days.”

Upon hearing these words, the grey-robed man’s body involuntarily shivered.

He recalled everything he experienced in the illusion realm, fear flashing in his eyes.

That illusion realm was too terrifying, no matter how he exploded his heart and spirit will, he couldn’t break through, only to sink deeper, unable to extricate himself.

If the time had been prolonged, he feared he would be completely assimilated by the illusion, his divine soul consciousness wiped out, never to be reborn.

“Senior’s cultivation is profound, divine skills are formidable, junior truly admires and submits.

Senior, please be frank, how do you plan to deal with junior, so I can be mentally prepared.”

At this time, the grey-robed man had already understood.

He must be inside a Spiritual Artifact Space, and the Lu Qing before him was just a manifestation of divine soul power.

As for the man beside him with horns, he must be the artifact spirit of this spiritual artifact.

With people in control, he was merely meat on the chopping block, so the grey-robed man instead became calm.

“Senior?” Lu Qing shook his head at his words, “As for your fate, I won’t decide now. Sparing your life is only to ask you a few questions.

Your honest answers would be good, but if dishonest, I’ll only invest more effort to interrogate you in the illusion realm.

It’s just uncertain how long you can withstand my illusion technique?”

The grey-robed man’s eye twitched, realizing he had no choice.

He had already personally experienced how terrifying Lu Qing’s illusion was.

That feeling of being in hell, he really didn’t want to go through it again.

Immediately, he sighed: “What does senior wish to know? Junior will answer truthfully.”

Seeing his surrender, Lu Qing smiled: “Then first introduce yourself, where you and your brothers come from, how you arrived in this world of ours, and your purpose?”

The grey-robed man paused, noting Lu Qing mentioned “our world.”

Could it be this mysterious figure before him was a native of this world, unlike him, an external visitor?

Thoughts raced in the grey-robed man’s mind, yet he showed a bitter smile: “If I say our arrival was accidental, does Senior believe it?”

“Oh?” Lu Qing raised an eyebrow, “Go ahead and explain.”

“We brothers come from a very distant large world.

That day we visited a secret realm, but encountered the sect’s hostile forces there…”

“…Thus, under the pursuit of Heavenly Dao Alliance disciples, we unwittingly activated an ancient transmission array.

Somehow, we arrived at the outer perimeter of Senior’s world.

This place is too far from our homeworld.

Using just Golden Core Realm’s speed, even spending dozens or hundreds of years, it’s difficult to cross the vast cosmic distances to reach another world.

We brothers had no way back to the sect, forced to explore this world.

Hoping to find a cross-domain transmission array to return home.

Senior, my brothers did not intentionally intrude upon your world.

If we knew it was your territory, we wouldn’t dare offend in the slightest.”

The grey-robed man recounted the process of him and his brother arriving in this small world in detail.

Of course, some things inevitably were concealed.

Like hiding the existence of the Pure Lotus, and blaming all conflict on the Heavenly Dao Alliance disciples.

He also deliberately omitted the role of the Void Ship, attributing their arrival solely to the ancient transmission array.

In the end, he feigned pity, trying to garner Lu Qing’s sympathy.

After listening, Lu Qing’s expression did not change, it was unclear whether he believed the grey-robed man’s words.

On the contrary, Yan beside him showed signs of shock.

Though they had previously guessed the grey-robed man’s brother might be external visitors.

Hearing the admission firsthand was still shocking.

Especially from the grey-robed man’s words, there were countless worlds outside like stars.

The world they were from was vast and boundless, far larger than here.

And this world was just a small world on the desolate edge.

Great World, Small World, Immortal Domain…

Listening to these terms, Yan felt a surge of insight, realizing previous ignorance.

“So, you did not intentionally come here?” Lu Qing asked.

“I dare not deceive you, Senior. We arrived involuntarily, I can swear by my divine soul!”

The grey-robed man responded immediately.
