Chu Ruolin saw that Chu Yi was refusing to confess and started raining blows on him.
At first, her strength was moderate, thinking that this troublesome brat might just spill the answer.
But now, seeing him still playing dumb, Chu Ruolin could no longer hold back, her strikes growing much heavier.
Chu Yi protected his head with both hands, yelling loudly.
"Master, why are you…"
"Speak, was it Old Man Zhuge who took you to Zhengyang Sect's forbidden grounds? Be honest!"
Chu Ruolin was so exhausted from berating him that her chest heaved intensely. Had she gotten an answer by now, she'd likely be too weakened in the legs to stand and would have collapsed into the chair beside her.
Chu Yi remained silent, not daring to lift his head to look at Chu Ruolin.
Words meant nothing; from Chu Yi's reaction, Chu Ruolin knew most of her suspicion was likely correct.
