Lingchi, also known Lingchi, is a form of torture that can be described as "Death by a Thousand Cuts".

When she heard the Black Dragonkin Lance explain this punishment back then, she was not afraid at all; on the contrary, she found it quite interesting.

Death by a Thousand Cuts of the physical body is meaningless; it would be interesting to apply such punishment to the soul.

Over the years, she has been researching how to apply this punishment to the soul, and has made some progress, but has not yet found a suitable soul.

Only the most vicious and wicked souls are qualified to experience this punishment.

When she told Black Dragonkin Lance, about this idea, he praised himself and said he would definitely become a qualified torturer in the future.

They also said that she would definitely surpass her teacher in the future.

After becoming an interrogator, her goal was to surpass Lance, the strongest, most ruthless, and most cunning inquisitor in the Abyss History!

Before Lance defected, he was the strongest judge recognized by several royal families in the Abyss. Those royal families even joined together to form a new court of judgment for him.

The highest-ranking official in this court is Black Dragonkin Lance.

At that time, when the Black Dragonkin was investigating a case, he could freely mobilize the judges and torturers of Various Royal Families to assist him in the investigation.

He can even mobilize a certain number of demons to assist him in hunting down criminals.

It can be said that at that time, the power held by the Black Dragonkin Lance was almost enough to threaten some of the higher-ranking Demon Race.

Even some ancient families.

Under normal circumstances, someone who suddenly becomes a rising star in the Abyss should take the opportunity to cultivate their own power.

But the Black Dragonkin did not do that. After he came to power, he made no difference to either the nobles or the commoners.

He doesn't care about background; he dares to directly promote and appoint Demon Race who are capable and talented enough to be torturers or judges.

In order to better deal with all kinds of vicious criminals, he also drew many soldiers from various royal families to form a brand-new violent organization.

Name: Brocade Guard.

The uniforms and badges of the Brocade Guard were designed by the Black Dragonkin himself. In order to enhance the combat power of the Brocade Guard, he also equipped the already powerful Demon Race soldiers with Embroidered Spring Blade.

Not long after its establishment, the Brocade Guard, under the leadership of the Black Dragonkin Lance, quickly earned a fearsome reputation in the Abyss.

Even the most ruthless demons would tremble at the mere mention of the Brocade Guard's name.

Because if a criminal dares to resist with force when the Brocade Guard is carrying out a mission, the Embroidered Brocade Guard will kill him on the spot.

During the heyday of the Brocade Guard, none of the vicious demons in the abyss or the powerful nobles of ancient families dared to confront Brocade Guard head-on.

During the Black Dragonkin's tenure, the crime rate in all the orderly cities of the Abyss dropped to its lowest level.

Now, due to the disappearance of the Black Dragonkin Lance, the crime rate in the Abyss has returned to its previous level.

The once-renowned Embroidered Brocade Guard is no longer as fierce and powerful as it used to be.

The Judgment Royal Court is now a mere shell of its former self.

Because no demon could mobilize other royal judges or torturers to assist in the investigation.

Suman looked at the unconscious Amethyst Dragonling, scenes and images from when the Black Dragonkin Lance served as the Supreme Judge flashed through her mind.

What a pity.

The glorious era that once belonged to the Black Dragonkin has become a thing of the past.

The Amethyst Dragonling is quite cute.

If Black Dragonkin Lance, were still alive, he would probably take this adorable Amethyst Dragonling home and raise it.

"Young dragon, you should be glad you're a young dragon that can speak. If you were a human, you would not only get your fingers pinched, but you might also get whipped."

Suman placed her hand on the baby dragon's bald head and patted it with a smile.

This little bald head feels really nice to the touch.

He has very poor mental resilience and is extremely timid.

I have never seen such a timid dragon.

Having served as a judge for so long, this is the first time I've ever seen a foreign race so terrified by the instruments of torture that they fainted.

Suman lightly tapped the young dragon's head with a leather whip, and each time the whip struck the dragon's head, a red light would flash.

After three times, the young dragon opened its eyes.

As she slowly raised her head and surveyed her surroundings, the dragon's mouth twitched, and she looked like she was about to cry again.

Why am I still in the devil's trial chamber? I thought that after I fainted, I would be taken back to the Alchemy City by the evil dragon when I woke up, but it seems that I was overthinking it.

Not only did they not return to the Alchemy City, they didn't even see the evil dragon.

Did the dragon know she had been transported to the abyss? With the dragon's abilities, it should be able to sense that she wasn't at the villa, right? It could sense that she wasn't at the villa, but it's unclear whether the dragon could discover that she had been transported to the abyss.

If she could discover this, the dragon would surely come to the abyss to find her.

Hurry up and come, the demons here are terrifying.

Their instruments of torture were more and more terrifying than the last.

Lingchi by a thousand cuts) Tiger Bench. She didn't know if she could endure these tortures.

"You're awake? Then let me tell you more about the punishment of ' Lingchi ' (death by a thousand cuts). In my imagination, ' Lingchi ' can not only..."

"I won't listen! I won't listen! I won't listen!"

"Then will you become my familiar?"

"No."

The female demon Suman sat back down on the table in front of the young dragon, pressed her leather whip against the young dragon's chin, and lifted the dragon's head.

"Tell me, what is the reason that makes you rather cry and be forced to accept the punishments I mentioned than become my familiar? I am a little curious. A young dragon like you who is afraid of death does not seem like the kind of creature that would willingly sacrifice itself for some belief."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I am a young dragon destined to be an emperor. I can be imprisoned by demons, and in order to survive, I will tell you everything I know, as if it were my own treasure."

The only thing I can't do is be your familiar. In the human world, no emperor has ever been a demon's familiar.

"I... I... I want to be the emperor, so I can't be your familiar!"

???

Become an emperor? This cowardly young dragon wants to be an emperor? Suman withdrew her right hand and looked at the young dragon who was crying and saying that she wanted to be an emperor in the future. For a moment, she didn't know whether to laugh at this Amethyst Dragonling or praise her for having the ambition of an eagle.

No matter how she looked at it, the Amethyst Dragonling seemed to lack the potential to become an emperor.

For such a ridiculous "dream," he would rather endure torture than become her familiar. Isn't this kind of persistence a little laughable?

"To become emperor, you must first be able to leave here alive. If you die here, even if you have the potential to become emperor, it will all be for nothing."

Becoming my familiar will be different. You can live, and only by living will you have a chance to escape from me and reach the human world. Only then will you have a chance to become emperor.

"I'm very weak, sister. To be your familiar, my strength should be about the same as yours. If I become your familiar, I'll only embarrass you because I'm so weak."

If you really like me and want me to stay by your side, then I'm willing to stay with you for a while as your "younger sister."

She is Imperial Princess. If she becomes the sister of a demon, it wouldn't be an insult to the strange female demon before us when she becomes the emperor of the human world.

"Be my sister? You're a criminal now, how dare you say you want to be my sister?"

"Then I'll be your maid. I'm very good at cooking. Let me be your maid, and I promise to make you plump and healthy."

The culinary skills she learned from the dragon should be more than enough to conquer a demon's stomach.

Her Lucky Coin also contained many seasonings that were only available on Black Dragon Island.

If the demon agrees to let her be his maid, she'll definitely fatten this female demon up.

"Young Dragon, it seems you still don't understand your current situation. You have no right to negotiate with me. Right now, I hold the power of life and death over you."

I will give you life so that you can live.

I'll kill you; you won't live past tonight.

"You can't do this. I don't deserve to die. If you really can't stand me, you can lock me up here."

That wretched female demon! If she dies here, the evil dragon will surely kill her to avenge her when he finds out.

She was afraid of demons.

Dragons are not afraid of demons.

"I said your life or death is up to me."

"Sister, I can't die."

"???" Suman was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Why can't you die?"

"Because I am the offspring of an evil dragon, if I die here, the evil dragon that raised me will find out sooner or later. At that time, even if you are Devil Judge, the evil dragon that raised me will kill you to avenge me."

If the dragon doesn't go berserk, you might be the only one to die. But if the dragon does go berserk, you, and perhaps all the demons here, could die.

???

Evil dragon?

What kind of evil dragon is powerful enough to wreak havoc in the abyss? Even a fiery and Powerful Red Dragon might not dare to be so arrogant in the abyss.

However, the fact that these words came from a baby dragon suggests that the evil dragon that raised the Amethyst Dragonling might actually be very powerful.

Currently, she still hasn't noticed any signs that the baby dragon is lying.

Every word she said was sincere.

Including that unrealistic dream of becoming emperor.

You can laugh at her, but she is indeed striving to become the future emperor.

Striving not to become a familiar of the devil is also a kind of effort.

Forget it, I won't scare or tease this baby dragon anymore.

We cannot punish her with those instruments of torture, nor can we release her.

As for making her a familiar, the young dragon resisted too much, so we'll talk about it later.

Suman tapped the leather whip in her right hand against the handcuffs binding the young dragon's hands, and the handcuffs opened automatically.

"If you don't want to be my familiar, then be my assistant. You'll help me handle some messy things in the future. There's no salary; the money for repairing the archives will be deducted from your salary."

She had no intention of letting the baby dragon return to the human world; at least until the archives were completed, the Amethyst Dragonling could not leave the abyss.

"Huh? Be your assistant?" The young dragon was dumbfounded. In her imagination, the female demon Suman would definitely lock her up in a dark and sunless cell and whip her several times a day.

Or you could punish her by assigning her some heavy work.

As a result, the demon Suman made her her assistant. Could it be that she was frightened by the evil dragon? "Don't overthink it. The reason you are treated better is not only because I am the highest-ranking officer here, but also because of your appearance."

Your appearance is very similar to that of the first Inquisitor of our Judgment Royal Court. He was Black Dragonkin, with Dragon Head Human Body, and a dragon's tail.

Black Dragonkin?

"There are pictures of the Black Dragonkin in the courtroom. Come on, I'll take you to see them."

The young dragon got up and stretched, then followed the demon Suman out of the Interrogation Room.

Interrogation Room was a corridor, with images of demons, Succubus, and other creatures hanging on the walls on both sides.

He also wrote some strange and unusual texts.

It should be the script used by the Abyss Demon Race.

There were many rooms on both sides of the corridor, which Suman said were Interrogation Room and some were prison cells.

After following Suman for a short while, the young dragon arrived at the end of the corridor.

A huge portrait hangs on the wall at the end of the corridor.

It is a dragon-human with a black dragon head, human body, and dragon tail.

The moment the young dragon saw the black dragon's head, she felt a sense of déjà vu, especially when she saw the black dragon's golden-red vertical pupils, this feeling became even stronger.

These vertical pupils are the same color as the dragon's vertical pupils.

The only difference is that these vertical pupils are cold, gloomy, and filled with a sense of indifference.

The dragon's vertical pupils only appear cold, not gloomy.

"He is the strongest judge in our Judgment Royal Court, the only one who entered the Royal Academy as a Black Dragonkin and successfully entered the sight of the Various Royal Families as a mid-level Demon Race."

When he was alive, he was a legend of the abyss; some of his deeds were even written into the textbooks of several royal families' preschools.

Unfortunately, this dragon-man was ambitious and would stop at nothing to become stronger, seducing and deceiving royal girls and intimidating and threatening royal boys.

He stole the forbidden spells of several royal families, but eventually the Abyss had nowhere to hide him. He was forced to flee to other places.

It's worth mentioning that he was, in a sense, my mentor.

The young dragon was completely bewildered. All of Demon Suman's words could be summed up in one sentence: the Black Dragonkin in the portrait is very strong.

It was so powerful that it was recorded in the annals of the abyss.

Dragons are also very powerful; if they wanted to, they too could be recorded in history.

"What's his name?"

"Lance."

"???!!!"

Suman stared at the portrait on the wall for a moment, then turned to the young dragon beside her. "You can say this name here, but it's best not to mention it once we leave this place."

This name is taboo; generally, it's best not to mention it unless someone in a higher position specifically mentions it in your presence.

The young dragon didn't hear what Suman said after that; all she could think about was the word "Lance".

Black Dragonkin Lance?

Could this Lance be the evil dragon Lance? Why... why are there traces of the evil dragon Lance in the Abyss? The young dragon thinks that the Black Dragonkin Lance is very likely the evil dragon Lance! She has no evidence.

But her intuition told her that there was a high probability that the Black Dragonkin recorded in the history of the abyss was the evil dragon Lance!
