Paper Man

The Demon-Suppressing Bureau and the county government quickly arrested everyone in the White Estate.

Zhao Zhen rushed over upon hearing the news.

County jail!

"I didn't expect you to actually dig him out."

Zhao Zhen asked with some emotion, "Have they found out anything yet?"

"Seven children's remains, as well as the bones of Ghost Baby, were unearthed inside the White Estate."

That old bastard Baiyun Zhenzeng is raising a ghost child at home.

Someone must have been coaching him; now it's up to the officials in charge of the interrogation to see how they handle it."

Zhao Zhen nodded upon hearing this, "The most important thing is that batch of funerary artifacts, and the most important thing is to find out who ended up in their hands."

Kong Zhao!

"Your subordinate is here!"

The young man whose name was called immediately responded!

"Make him speak."

"Yes!"

Kong Zhao replied, and immediately went into the torture chamber to replace the yamen runners who were administering the punishment, preparing to do it himself.

"Kong Zhao is the most outstanding interrogator in our Youshan Prefecture 'Demon-Suppressing Bureau. Any vicious and evil cultivators we capture, once they fall into his hands, will have to spit out their ancestors for eighteen generations."

Zhao Zhen sneered!

Upon hearing this, Qin Yan also became interested and looked at the other person.

Bai Yunzeng was already beaten until his skin was torn and bleeding, and his son was even worse, spilling everything he knew.

However, none of it was important information.

Being stubborn won't do you any good.

Kong Zhao smiled faintly at Bai Yunzeng: "Tell me everything you know, and you'll suffer less."

"My lord, I have confessed everything I know. I was bewitched and that's why I raised that little devil."

Bai Yunzeng tears streaming down his face, as if he had endless grievances to express.

I gave you a chance.

Kong Zhao spoke calmly, the dark tattoo on his arm seeming to come alive.

A phantom-like mist slowly appeared, swirling and rolling around him.

"It's a ghost!"

Qin Yan's pupils contracted slightly, and he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"The Demon-Suppressing Bureau recruits talented individuals from all over the world. Kong Zhao's Lineage is naturally gifted with spiritual abilities and is extremely skilled at controlling ghosts!"

The ghost in his hand was exceptionally terrifying and ferocious, and was most skilled in interrogation and torture.

As Zhao Zhen recounted his story...

The misty figure had already begun its movement, like a veil covering Bai Yunzeng!

In an instant, streaks of blood flew out from his body.

Qin Yan examined it closely; it was skin and flesh peeled off the other person's body.

Ahh!

Bai Yunzeng's eyes widened immediately; he could clearly feel his flesh being torn off bit by bit.

Moreover, this pain seemed to be magnified countless times; in just a moment, his eyes were filled with bloodshot veins.

He let out a hoarse hissing sound.

The pain was so intense that he couldn't even scream!

"Don't worry, I won't let you die."

Kong Zhao's faint smile, combined with the eerie atmosphere of the prison, sent chills down one's spine.

"Even the most brutal form of slow slicing in this world is only about 3,000 cuts, but my Silk-Thread Ghost is different. It can tear off every inch of your muscle."

To make sure you don't get played to death too soon, I've also prepared ginseng pills for you!

I guarantee you'll enjoy yourself for three days and three nights!

Seeing this, Qin Yan couldn't help but feel sorry for the old man; his strange methods were bizarre and varied.

It only took a short while.

Bai Yunzeng's originally chubby figure quickly turned into a bloody mess, as if someone had peeled off a layer of skin.

It looks quite creepy.

"I'll tell you everything... Please stop torturing me, sob sob!"

In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

Bai Yunzeng couldn't bear it any longer. He watched as his flesh was torn away, and the enormous impact shattered his mental defenses.

"He was a young scholar, and he was the one who taught me how to raise the little devil I was raising."

I gave him all the funerary objects I'd collected over the years.

"What's that scholar's name? What does he look like?"

Zhao Zhen immediately demanded an explanation.

Soon everyone learned what had happened.

Liao Qian, a local gravedigger, spent years digging up tombs and obtaining antique artifacts.

They all handed over the debts to the White Family to settle!

But an accident happened on the last trip.

Among the funerary objects brought was a Copper Pot, which, to everyone's surprise, contained a Yin Soul.

This Yin Soul spirit was incredibly powerful, and it immediately devoured Liao Qian's soul!

Fortunately, the scholar was there at the time and used some methods to capture the Yin Soul!

"What's that man's name? I don't know. I'm being told to address him as 'scholar.'"

The other party was extremely excited when they received the Copper Pot.

They say that item is an ancient artifact; I suspect it might be a treasure left behind by Immortal.

Bai Yunzeng said weakly that he naturally knew some of the secrets about Qinghe Town.

One of the reasons for cooperating with those tomb raiders was that they wanted to peek into the things of those ancient Immortals.

Perhaps we can discover some secrets to immortality!

The scholar Bai Yunzeng mentioned has likely been hiding in Qinghe Town for many years.

It seems they are interested in the secrets of Immortals.

There's a very high probability that this person has had contact with people from the Yinluo Way, or perhaps he himself is a member of the Yinluo Way.

Zhao Zhen's brows furrowed with seriousness; he was a man who had been hiding in Qinghe Town for a long time.

They must have known about the situation at the Mass Grave Mound, or perhaps they were one of the people who orchestrated it.

"Sir, this is a description of the prisoner based on his own account!"

An artist walked up and handed a portrait to him.

He was a handsome scholar with an androgynous air about him!

"How come I've never seen anyone like this before? I should remember what he looks like."

Looking at the portrait, Qin Yan thought that the person was definitely handsome and couldn't possibly be unknown.

Qinghe Town was his territory, along with his more than one hundred men.

He wouldn't dare say he knew everything, big or small, but he at least had some impression of the main people and events!

"He must have been disguised."

"Very likely." Zhao Zhen nodded in strong agreement.

"Pass this portrait down and instruct the county magistrate to assist in the investigation of this person. Report any clues immediately."

"Yes!" Qin Yan immediately clasped his hands in response!

Suddenly, Qin Yan sensed something approaching.

Suddenly, something flew in through the narrow window of the cell, moving at an incredible speed.

Before they could even react...

A blur flashed across Bai Yunzeng's neck, and blood gushed from the wound like a fountain.

"Paper Man!"

Qin Yan discovered that the object used to commit the murder was a small paper figure.

"How dare you!"

Zhao Zhen was instantly enraged. How dare they kill someone in front of his Demon-Suppressing Bureau! His powerful aura erupted instantly.

A brutal killing intent filled the entire prison as he slammed a palm strike at the Paper Man.

At the same time, Kong Zhao controlled the Silk-Thread Ghost to launch an attack on the Paper Man.

"Hehe!"

A voice filled with extreme contempt rang out.

The Paper Man was instantly engulfed in flames, and in a flash, it turned into ashes.

"How dare you!"

Zhao Zhen's face was almost a liverish color from anger.

This is an absolute and blatant insult.

"How boring!"

The Yinrou Scholar stroked the white fox in his arms and slowly disappeared into the silent night.
