Ye Qiu followed Qian Renxue, all the way to the study. As soon as the door closed, two figures appeared beside Qian Renxue.
Facing the scrutiny of the Porcupinefish and the Snake Lance, Ye Qiu simply offered the plate of pastries he had brought to them, his eyes asking a question.
Seeing that they weren't interested, he tossed it onto the desk with a smile.
Crack!
Suddenly, a sound came.
Qian Renxue twisted a flowerpot, and the ground cracked open, revealing a deep hole.
"Follow me."
Qian Renxue reminded.
Ye Qiu nodded.
Following the stairs down led to a long passage, which brightened with each step.
After about fifty steps, Qian Renxue lightly tapped the wall of the passage.
Another hidden door opened.
Inside, it was surprisingly a jail cell with two rooms and a living area.
The two rooms each had iron bars on three sides, with only straw mats inside, and dried bloodstains on the ground.
The hall was empty, with a few tables and chairs. A crucifix stood against the wall.
Various torture devices hung on the walls.
There were whips with barbs, beds of nails, bamboo skewers, castration knives, and even long, thick, and terrifying spiked clubs.
Ye Qiu couldn't help but exclaim, "I didn't expect your secret room to have so many options."
Qian Renxue didn't bother to respond to Ye Qiu. She said softly, "Release him."
Ye Qiu chuckled lightly and patted his Ruyi Treasure Pouch, causing a flash of light to appear.
Yu Xiaogang, his face bruised and swollen, lay on the ground.
Qian Renxue waved her hand dismissively and ordered, "Porcupinefish, Snake Lance, tie him to that rack first."
"Yes."
The two responded, lifting Yu Xiaogang and dragging him to the cross by the wall.
"Say, when will the two of us sit together in a secret room?"
Ye Qiu suddenly put his elbow on Qian Renxue's round, fragrant shoulder, a face full of smiles.
His words were suggestive.
It made Qian Renxue's face turn completely cold.
"If you continue to be so presumptuous, don't blame me for being rude."
Before she could finish speaking.
Qian Renxue had already spread her six wings, her body radiating golden light, and the five Soul Rings beneath her feet rotated, clearly ready to fight at any moment.
Ye Qiu was unfazed, instead smiling and staring at her profile, directly putting his arm around her shoulder.
"That's great, I'd also like to see your Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul."
"Is that so? I'd like to see your strength too!"
Qian Renxue said through gritted teeth.
She had been putting up with Ye Qiu for a long time.
Whoosh——
Before she finished speaking.
Qian Renxue suddenly erupted, her first Soul Ring flashing as she turned and launched Angel's Assault at Ye Qiu.
Bang!
A golden shockwave slammed into the wall with a dull thud.
Ye Qiu was no longer beside her.
Qian Renxue's body stiffened slightly, her eyes unfocused, and Ye Qiu's laughter reached her ears.
"Hahaha."
"Let's postpone the fight for another day, this place isn't suitable."
Ye Qiu leaned back gently.
At this moment, he was standing back-to-back with Qian Renxue, pressed closely against her.
"Young master."
"Do your own thing."
Qian Renxue stopped the Porcupinefish and Snake Lance, who were about to step forward. A smile suddenly appeared on her face, a feeling of excitement at the prospect of a hunt. She sneered:
"Ye Qiu. It seems I really underestimated you."
"It's not too late to take it seriously now."
Ye Qiu said with a smile, but he raised his hand and patted his chest. Fortunately, he hadn't let his guard down.
"Hmph."
Qian Renxue put away her Martial Soul.
"Tell me, what else do you want?"
Ye Qiu didn't beat around the bush and said directly: "I want something, the illustrated guide to Immortal Herbs that Chrysanthemum Douluo has." Qian Renxue looked puzzled, turning her head slightly.
"What do you need that for?"
Ye Qiu leaned back.
"As the Poison Douluo's grandson-in-law, it's only natural for me to cater to his interests, right?"
"And what can you offer in return?"
Qian Renxue frowned; she had never been this close to a man before.
"In a couple of days, I'll take you to kill someone. That person could be the future emperor, you know? You launched a Palace Coup, but someone else benefited from it."
Ye Qiu chuckled mockingly.
He was never a soft-hearted person. If he could trade Xue Beng's life for an Immortal Herbs guidebook, why not?
Besides, he was eliminating a public menace, wasn't he?
Also, Tang San's resume was a bit lacking. He had a duty to enrich Tang San's life story.
It would save him from constantly popping up and causing trouble in front of him.
Hearing Ye Qiu's words, Qian Renxue frowned.
She remembered Ye Qiu saying that her Palace Coup would fail.
So, Ye Qiu was going to take her to kill the person who caused her failure?
Before she could ask, Qian Renxue felt the warmth on her back disappear.
Turning her head, she saw Ye Qiu already standing by the wall, facing away from her. Under her astonished gaze, Ye Qiu knocked on a spot, and a secret door opened.
"Alright, I'll be waiting for your good news."
Ye Qiu casually waved his hand behind him and left with a swagger.
Qian Renxue stood quietly in place, her eyes filled with uncertainty.
After a few breaths.
Qian Renxue suddenly chuckled, muttering to herself.
"Why do I suddenly feel so excited, Ye Qiu? I hope you haven't tricked me! Otherwise…"
Snake Lance asked with concern, "Young Master, are you alright?"
"I'm fine."
Qian Renxue suppressed the smile on her face.
Turning her head towards the Porcupinefish and Snake Lance, her face turned cold.
"Listen carefully, both of you. If this is leaked, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
"Don't worry, Young Lady! We will definitely keep our mouths shut!"
Snake Lance and Porcupinefish quickly assured her.
They knew Qian Renxue was referring to her imprisonment of the useless Yu Xiaogang.
"Alright, let's wake him up first."
Qian Renxue nodded slightly, walked over to the cross, and pulled up a chair to sit down.
Her gaze swept over the torture instruments on the wall.
The Porcupinefish nodded, and as instructed, woke up Yu Xiaogang. He condensed a sharp spike in his hand and directly stabbed it into Yu Xiaogang's thigh.
Swoosh—
The spike pierced the flesh. Before the blood could seep out, Yu Xiaogang's pig-like screams followed.
"Ah—"
Yu Xiaogang's eyes widened, his mouth agape, his tonsils practically screaming. His body trembled, and he gritted his teeth, squeezing out a tear before finally suppressing the excruciating pain.
He watched the people in front of him with wide eyes.
First, he saw Xue Qinghe.
Then, he noticed the two Title Douluo from that day, and his heart immediately skipped a beat.
"You... who are you?!"
"You're from the Martial Soul Hall! Why are you grabbing me? Let me go! I am..."
"So noisy!"
Qian Renxue let out a cold snort, pointing at the small saw on the wall.
"Snake Lance, take it slow with the punishment. First, chop off one of his fingers! Teach him a lesson!"
"Yes!"
Snake Lance immediately stepped forward, retrieving a small, rusty saw that hadn't been used in years.
It didn't look very sharp.
With a blank expression, he walked towards Yu Xiaogang.
"What are you going to do? No, don't, don't come any closer! No!"
Yu Xiaogang struggled constantly, trying to escape.
His eyes were filled with terror.
