Chapter 292 - 292: Spare Me
The brothel keeper became even more spirited when she saw the man kneeling on the ground.
She turned around and instructed the burly men behind her, “What are you waiting for?! Tie these troublemakers up and interrogate them!”
Seeing this, the man with the steel knife waved the steel knife and was about to resist again.
However, before he could rush in front of Chao Bai, he suddenly fell to the ground with a bang, and the steel knife in his hand fell to the side.
Seeing this, the burly men finally found a chance to regain their dignity. They immediately rushed forward and pressed the men who had just caused trouble to the ground before tying them up.
The man in the lead was tied up by layers of ropes and even lacked a few more times from behind by Ling Nuo.
Ling Nuo returned to Chao Bai’s side and glared at the man in front of him.
Chao Bai stared down at the men kneeling in front of him as he said again, “Speak!”
It was just one word, but it made the men feel a huge pressure pressing down on them again.
The man with the wooden stick, who had already been injured by Ling Nuo, felt his chest tighten under the pressure, and blood actually flowed from the corner of his mouth.
Chao Bai didn’t look at the man. His gaze was still fixed on the man in the lead.
That person withstood the huge pressure and tried his best to look up at Chao Bai, but after a few tries, he gave up.
“Okay! I’ll tell you!” The man finally let go. His loose shoulders showed that he had stopped struggling.
“The people from the High Heaven Pavilion asked us to come,” the man said in a low voice and he sounded indignant.
“High Heaven Pavilion?” Chao Bai frowned slightly. He didn’t expect it to be this annoying sect again.
Ever since Zi Xuan died, Chao Bai had thought that his relationship with the High Heaven Pavilion had been severed!
Ling Nuo waited for a while, but Chao Bai seemed to have no intention of asking further.
He was about to ask when he saw Chao Bai turn to leave.
“Master, this…” After Ling Nuo looked at the men kneeling on the ground, he turned to look at Chao Bai, who was walking quickly towards the backyard. He was momentarily at a loss.
Chao Bai didn’t seem to intend to ask why these people were here.
Ling Nuo asked Chao Bai anxiously, “Master, what should we do with these people?”
“Kill them!” Chao Bai didn’t turn around and only gave the order indifferently.
The brothel keeper didn’t seem to hear Chao Bai’s words, so she turned to Ling Nuo and asked, “What did master say just now?”
Ling Nuo raised her eyebrows slightly and turned to look at the man on the ground who had clearly heard Chao Bai’s words.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and a smug smile appeared on his face. “Master said that we should kill all these people!”
Ling Nuo deliberately spoke very slowly. When he spoke, he even looked back and forth at the men in front of him.
As expected, as soon as Ling Nuo finished speaking, a man suddenly knocked his head on the ground and shouted desperately, “Don’t kill me! I was only sent here by someone else! Please, don’t kill me!”
Without Chao Bai’s pressure, the man in the lead finally raised his head slowly.
He turned to the man who was kowtowing and begging for mercy and reprimanded, “Useless thing! You’re embarrassing us!”
The man who was kowtowing didn’t respond at all and continued to bang his head on the ground.
The other man looked at the leader. “Brother, is it really worth it for us to do this?”
The man in the lead asked angrily, “What do you mean?”
“The people from High Heaven Pavilion are just treating us as chess pawns. Are we really going to risk our lives for them?” The man spoke his mind.
The other man echoed, “That’s right! Isn’t our life our own?”
After all, they were in the face of death, so they were much more lucid.
The man in the lead reprimanded them, “Are you guys rebelling?”
“Rebelling? We just want to save our own lives!” A man said and turned in Ling Nuo’s direction. “I’ll tell you everything you want to know!”
“Please let me off!”
Upon hearing the man’s words, the two people beside him also echoed the same sentiment.
Ling Nuo raised his eyebrows in amusement. As expected, his master had a way to easily pry open these people’s mouths!
Ling Nuo said to those people calmly, “Tell us everything you know. Perhaps my master will spare your lives if he’s happy..”
