The young man called for help, but his calls went unanswered.
Xu Shan was quite frustrated by his constant screams. He raised his right foot, stomping on the knees of the man, almost crushing it. Fortunately, he controlled his strength. However, the pain was still too much for the young man, making him scream even louder.
"If you don't want both your legs to be broken, close your mouth." Xu Shan's voice fell in the ears of the man as he once again raised his foot.
Seeing his gesture, the man was quite scared. For some reason, his strength was sealed. All his treasures were taken away by Ye Han as well. And by now, it was clear that no one outside could hear him, or they would've already barged inside.
In the end, he was scared and closed his mouth, even when his face was covered in tears.
Xu Shan grabbed the collar of the man, raising him in the air. "I only have two questions for you. Answer them honestly, and you'll survive. Lie, and I'll find someone else to answer... But you won't be alive to see that."
"My first question! Where is Yu Fei?!" Xu Shan's eyes appeared calm, but the young man felt as if he was able to see through the depths of his soul. It was as if he could hide nothing from the beast before him!
To survive, he offered no resistance. He spoke, slightly stuttering, "S-solace Mountain! She's sent there to reflect! No one knows why, or for how long."
"Solace Mountain?" Ye Han frowned, hearing the response. "No wonder I couldn't feel her aura. It must be the barrier that's stopping it."
"The barrier doesn't matter. Not that we know where she is, that makes things easier," Xu Shan responded.
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom The young man didn't know what the two wanted from Yu Fei, but he had a really bad feeling about this. Unfortunately, he couldn't do anything.
"My second and last question. Where is the core of the Mist Formation that protects the Island?"
Even though he had a rough guess already, it was always better to make sure.
The man was taken aback as he heard the question. "I-i don't know. No one other than the Patriarch and Great Elders know that. I'm not lying! I swear on my life! That's all I know!"
The young man was quite scared, realizing that the two guests weren't just here as guests. They had much bigger goals. However, for his own survival, he was even willing to sell the Celestial Palace to its enemies.
Xu Shan didn't think that the guy was lying. Even though he asked the question, he already expected the answer to be unknown.
The Formation Core was the most precious thing for the Celestial Palace which protected them for thousands of years. There was no way that its information was going to be public knowledge.
He opened his lips to say something, but right then, a frown developed on his face, as he heard heavy knocks on the door.
The young man's eyes lit up. Did that mean the Celestial Palace found out about his kidnapping? His eyes revealed that he was quite relieved.
However, his expressions soon changed when he felt a strange feeling.
It was as if all his strength was being sucked dry.
"W-what are you doing?" He panicked, struggling fiercely. However, now that his strength was at its weakest, his Seventh Stage Celestial General Realm strength was nothing.
Before long, his entire body lost all its strength. His Celestial Mark disappeared, along with all his aura.
Xu Shan crushed the neck of the man, killing him right there since he couldn't store people who were alive in his storage ring.
Even though Ye Han stood in the back, he didn't see what Xu Shan did. He only saw it as the Prince killing a person, since Xu Shan intentionally stood at an angle which made it impossible for him to see the young man's Celestial Spirit Mark disappearing.
Moreover, since his strength was already sealed, even as his aura was sucked dry, it was impossible for Ye Han to sense.
'It only increased my attention a tiny bit. What a pity...'
After taking care of the young man, who was the only evidence against him at the moment, Xu Shan left the room, accompanied by Ye Han.
"Are you really sure that you avoided all the people and plants on your way back?" Xu Shan asked Ye Han just to be sure.
He was mostly sure that it was possible for Ye to be caught since he had lent his precious treasure to Ye Han temporarily to achieve this task successfully.
That treasure made it impossible for a person's presence to be sensed, unless they were looking at him directly or felt traces of killing intent.
Ye Han nodded. There was no chance that he had messed up. He used quite a precious treasure after all, and kept all precautions in his mind.
"Why are these idiots so hyper?" Xu Shan reached the main entrance. The door was opened by Ye Han, while Xu Shan stood in the back.
However, as soon as the door opened, he saw a fist coming straight, surrounded by a Celestial Aura. Unfortunately, the strength behind that attack wasn't enough to even phase Ye Han. It was only an attack of a First Stage Sky Celestial.
Ye Han could easily respond with blunt force, but as he saw the face of the person who had attacked, he simply dodged the fist before grabbing the wrist of the young man to stop his fist.
The young man was Yu Ming, the son of the Palace Master after all.
"Young Friend, may I ask what you're doing attacking us out of nowhere?' Xu Shan frowned, noticing the Great Elder standing outside. A few other Elders could also be seen nearby. The situation appeared quite troublesome.
"Return my sister!" Yu Ming roared, revealing clear killing intent!
