Jiang Liu looked at the lifeless body of the Blood Demon Island Grandmaster in his hand and muttered to himself, "The Halls of Yama?"
He then casually tossed him to the ground, paying him no further attention, and began to ponder.
If this Halls of Yama is the force behind Blood Demon Island, then this force must be very powerful.
As far as Jiang Liu knew, the Halls of Yama was home to ten Yama Kings.
Now that he has come into contact with the forces of two Yama Kings, wouldn't there be eight more left?
He didn't know whether being a Yama King represented a Peak Grandmaster or an even higher Martial Saint; these were all impossible to guess.
However, even if a King of Hell represents a Peak Grandmaster, such a force is not something that the current Jianghu forces of the Great Jianghu can handle.
Jiang Liu's current understanding of the situation at the Halls of Yama is entirely speculative; he can only make a judgment once he has gathered more information.
Having vented his anger, Chen Bo then flashed away towards the main entrance.
Because there were still two Blood Demon Island people at the entrance, he wanted to capture them alive, hoping to find out from them whether there were any more Blood Demon Island people in Tianyun City.
At this moment, Wang Yuan had completely died. He wanted to capture all the remaining Blood Demon Island people in Tianyun City and then use their own methods against them.
Soon, Chen Bo entered, carrying one person in each of his left and right hands.
"Nephew, these two are yours to handle." Chen Bo threw the two men on the ground and said to Jiang Liu, knowing Jiang Liu's interrogation methods.
Jiang Liu shook his head and said, "Uncle, you're probably going to be disappointed. These people from Blood Demon Island don't understand the Great Qian language, so we can't interrogate them."
Hearing Jiang Liu say this, Chen Bo could only sigh helplessly, then raised his sword, ready to kill them both.
At this moment, one of the Blood Demon Island suddenly spoke up, "Don't kill me, I can answer your questions."
These words immediately delighted Jiang Liu and Chen Bo.
They hadn't expected this unexpected surprise.
If they can learn more about Blood Demon Island from him, they will be able to better plan their upcoming battle against Blood Demon Island.
Furthermore, you can learn the language of Blood Demon Island by communicating with him, which would be a great advantage if you were to conquer Blood Demon Island one day.
"Alright! As long as you answer the questions honestly, I can guarantee you won't die," Chen Bo said.
Jiang Liu used his mental power to invade people this time because the first language of the Blood Demon Island people is the Blood Demon Island language.
Therefore, when questioning him, the only answer you should give is to speak his mother tongue.
However, now that the people of Blood Demon Island are willing to confess, that's definitely the best outcome!
"What's your name?" Chen Bo asked first.
"My name is Piao Han," Piao Han replied.
"How many people came this time?" Chen Bo continued to ask.
"There are 62 of us this time. We are divided into two teams. One team stayed in Yunzhou and the other team came to Xun Province."
When Jiang Liu heard Piao Han say that they were staying in Yunzhou, he realized that they must have landed in Yunzhou. Was Blood Demon Island closer to Yunzhou?
At this moment, another Blood Demon Island Islander heard what his companion was saying, but he could only vaguely understand some of it.
However, not knowing exactly what it meant, he immediately shouted angrily at his companion, probably blaming him for betraying Blood Demon Island.
With a flick of Chen Bo's sword, the furious shout of the Blood Demon Island man abruptly ceased.
"So, how strong is Blood Demon Island?" Chen Bo asked, holding his blood-dripping longsword.
Piao Han glanced at the longsword in Chen Bo's hand with a hint of fear in his eyes, and continued, "Blood Demon Island? The place we are in is not called Blood Demon Island, we are called Sacred Blood Island."
"Whether it's Blood Demon Island or Sacred Blood Island, tell me in detail about your origins," Jiang Liu interjected.
"Actually, I don't know much about the origins of our Sacred Blood Island either. I've only heard the older generation say that we seem to have migrated from this continent."
"It seems they were being hunted down by some force, which is why they fled to Sacred Blood Island. They intermarried with the locals and started to reproduce, eventually growing stronger."
"Then do you know what the Halls of Yama is?" Jiang Liu continued to ask.
When Chen Bo heard Jiang Liu's question, he gave Jiang Liu a strange look, not understanding what Jiang Liu meant by asking that question.
"The Halls of Yama? The King of Hell? Is this the King of Hell you're talking about?" Piao Han took out a tiny statue, only an inch tall, from the inside pocket of his clothes and handed it to Jiang Liu.
Jiang Liu took it and examined it carefully. He saw that it was a statue of the King Wuguan, which was carved very lifelike.
Jiang Liu nodded and said, "He is one of the Yama Kings in the Halls of Yama. Have you been worshipping him all this time?"
"We have always worshipped him, but he is not called Yama, but King Wuguan. He does not belong to the Halls of Yama. He is our guardian deity," Piao Han explained, shaking his head.
Jiang Liu didn't argue with him, after all, he didn't even know about the Halls of Yama, probably because his status and strength were too low.
However, we can also learn from him that Blood Demon Island is probably just a branch of the King Wuguan's forces.
"So, what is the current strength of your Sacred Blood Island?" Chen Bo asked.
"Our Sacred Blood Island consists of seven main islands, surrounded by countless smaller islands. On the seven main islands, there are at least five Grandmaster. I don't know the exact number, but we are from Yao Guang Island."
"We came out this time to capture martial artists in Daqian as a gift for the island lord's daughter's coming of age."
"I was dragged here by them because the two leaders had been here once before, so they came here again this time."
"What is the strength of your island lord?" Jiang Liu asked.
Piao Han shook his head and said, "I don't know, but even the two leaders who brought us here together couldn't defeat our island lord. They've fought once before."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Liu and Chen Bo were immediately shocked. Even the two Grandmaster working together couldn't defeat him. If he wasn't feigning weakness, then the island lord's strength must be that of Peak Grandmaster.
"What are the names of your seven islands?" Jiang Liu asked with a hint of interest, because when he heard "Yao Guang" in Piao Han's words, he couldn't help but think of the Big Dipper.
"Tian Shu, Tian Xuan, Tian Ji Island, Tian Quan Island, Yu Heng, Kai Yang, Yao Guang. I think it's called the Seven Stars. Because when viewed from mid-air, our island looks a lot like the stars in the sky."
"You speak such standard Mandarin of the Great Qian Dynasty, who taught you? Were there Great Qian people teaching you on your island?" Jiang Liu asked.
Piao Han shook his head and said, "I heard it from my grandfather when I was little, that's why I can say it. However, there are many things I can say, but I don't know what they mean."
"Moreover, there are no living Daqian people on our island; all the Daqian people who were captured and taken back are dead."
Jiang Liu and Chen Bo couldn't help but sigh when they heard this.
