C523 Extortion (1/2)
Gong Xiaoxuan took out a handkerchief and wiped his hands, casually throwing the handkerchief over the black figure's face, perfectly covering his face.
”Let's go in.” Master Gong was still as arrogant and cool as ever, he dragged Baili Jinxiu into the courtyard while the guards behind quietly cleaned up the corpse.
After entering the mansion, they walked through several corridors before reaching the backyard. They entered the dungeon from a fake mountain.
Once he entered the dungeon, a dark and sinister feeling assaulted him. Baili Jinxiu shook off all the goosebumps on his body and followed Gong Xiaoxuan forward.
It was probably because the dungeon was underground that the temperature here was much lower than it was at the top. There were many people locked up in a cell with iron pillars as thick as a rice bowl. However, they were all very quiet and no one moved when they saw someone enter.
Gong Xiaoxuan saw that Baili Jinxiu was curiously staring at the cells, his clear voice sounded out: ”These people are all generals of the enemy nations that I have fought in the past. ”Perhaps those who wanted my life in the martial arts world, and those who were ordered to kill me, are all dead, some are still alive, and those who are still alive are here.”
Baili Jinxiu shivered. There were at least a hundred people in this dungeon. This was still alive among the people who tried to assassinate Gong Xiaoxuan, if you added in those who died …
Baili Jinxiu looked at Gong Xiaoxuan with a bit of heartache. People often only saw the might of the Prince An on the surface, but never did they know that it was so difficult for him to feel heartache.
Gong Xiaoxuan looked at Baili Jinxiu, an indescribable emotion flashed past his eyes, and he said solemnly: ”Let's go.”
The prison cell for the Military Advisor was the innermost room. When Baili Jinxiu and the others arrived, there was already someone waiting there.
”Prince, he has already been tortured, but his mouth is too hard for me to say anything.” Baili Jinxiu looked at the person with extremely unfamiliar eyes. It was probably the hidden secret guard that was guarding the dungeon, who was sizing him up wantonly.
Baili Jinxiu's gaze towards the hidden guard was extremely obvious. The hidden guard frowned and turned around as well, but after seeing Baili Jinxiu's face, he turned pale with fright.
Seeing that, Gong Xiaoxuan waved his hand, and the guard covered the surprise in his eyes and left.
Baili Jinxiu was a little confused, just now that man had such a weird expression when he saw him, could there be a problem? Frowning, he looked at Gong Xiaoxuan.
Gong Xiaoxuan looked at Baili Jinxiu with a comforting gaze, then walked inside. Baili Jinxiu quickly followed.
Inside the room was an iron frame with a large number of people tied to it. There were all kinds of torture tools around it. The floor was faintly glowing with a dark red light, as if it was dyed red with blood. It looked extremely strange.
The figure's head was lowered, and his long hair covered his face. The various wounds on his body were shocking to behold.
Baili Jinxiu secretly sized him up and wanted to go over to take a look at the Military Advisor's hair, but he was stopped by Gong Xiaoxuan.
This is the advisor that I captured from Prince Qinguang this morning. I didn't find out anything about her background or what happened earlier. It's as if she came out of nowhere.” Gong Xiaoxuan paused for a moment before casting a meaningful glance at Baili Jin Xiu, and said in a low voice, ”This person is a little strange. Pay attention.
Baili Jinxiu nodded slightly, he did not have the interest to look at that man's appearance, and directly asked: ”How long have you been by Prince Jin Nie's side?”
The person did not reply for a long time. If not for the fact that Baili Jinxiu could feel that the person was still alive and awake, he would have suspected that she was dead.
