Chapter 184 The Chief who had been played with

The White Angel said solemnly, “It looks like the Nicholas family clan is not simple. There are many powers hidden behind them. They are far beyond what we know.”

“But, the Nicholas family clan shouldn’t have a Mage of the Longevity Realm,” said the Black Angel with a smile.

The White Angel quickly shook his head and rejected the idea. “Impossible, definitely impossible. If their family clan really had a Mage of the Longevity Realm, they would not have been bullied by the four large family clans. Perhaps the Chief did not die in the hands of the Nicholas family. Let’s wait for the report.”

The White Angel could only sense whether the Sacrificial Curse had worked, and not what was going on at the scene. Therefore, everything was just speculation.

The Black Angel said, “No matter who killed the Chief, we have already lost four Chiefs. I won’t let this matter rest.”

A strong murderous intent had already appeared in the eyes of the Black Angel. “Why don’t the two of us make a trip? It has been many years since we last fought.”

“It’s not time yet. Let’s wait for all the Chiefs to return before we discuss this further.” The White Angel did not want to act rashly.

As the Black and White Angels were discussing countermeasures, screams kept echoing in the ancestral hall of the Nicholas family clan. Anyone who heard them shuddered.

However, no one outside the ancestral hall could see or hear what was going on inside.

The screams had lasted for a while. Thereafter, the hunched old man’s eyes revealed some fatigue. Although he was already a soul now and his soul would not sweat, it could be seen from his eyes that he was already mentally and physically exhausted.

Although there was a lot of fatigue in his eyes, at the same time, there was also some surprise because he had discovered that he had not died, and that the Sacrificial Curse had actually been neutralized.

He seemed to have walked out of the gates of hell just now, and his life had been spared. Furthermore, the Sacrificial Curse at the core of his heart had completely disappeared.

The old man had already prepared to die. He had felt a very powerful energy enter his body and then into his core. The stimulation from the pain made him, who was at level-8 of the Divine Power Realm, almost unable to bear it. It was as if his soul was about to dissipate.

Although he had been tortured by the pain until he seemed to have lost half his life, it was a good thing that he had been able to survive.

The old man thought for a while and then reacted. It should have been that Mage of the Longevity Realm who had helped him neutralize the Sacrificial Curse, and he had also saved his life.

Although it was extremely painful, the outcome was good.

Could it be that he had not died because he was lucky? Or could the Mage of the Longevity Realm have some ulterior motive for saving him?

The old man had recovered a little by now and was beginning to think carefully about what had just happened. He then realized that there was no such thing as a free lunch in the world. There had to be another reason why the Mage of the Longevity Realm had saved him.

And the most likely motive was to continue torturing him. The old man did not dare to continue thinking. “Senior, please spare my life. Thank you, Senior.”

After the old man had finished speaking, there was no movement in the entire ancestral hall, as if no one had ever been in the ancestral hall. However, he knew that perhaps the Mage in the Longevity Realm was somewhere he could not see. After all, the core in his body was still in his hands. If the Mage had even the slightest intention of killing him, he would not be able to survive at all.

After another minute or so, the old man felt like he was about to suffocate. He felt like he was about to collapse. Although he had tempered his calm state of mind in the past 200 years, it was completely useless now.

“Please, don’t torture me anymore. Tell me quickly.”

Just as the old man was about to collapse, a voice sounded from the ancestral hall. “Answer my question, or you die.”

“Senior, ask quickly. I’ll definitely tell you everything I know. Senior, please spare my life,” the old man quickly agreed, afraid that he would miss this opportunity.

Humans were naturally afraid of death. Previously, because he had the Sacrificial Curse on him, there was nothing he could do. Now that the Sacrificial Curse was gone, it meant that the heavens had given him another chance to live. He had to treasure it.

The old man answered all the questions raised in detail. Romo also learned a lot of information about the Mu Guang Pavilion which he had not known previously.

After all, if the old man did not answer, he would die.

After losing the Sacrificial Curse, the old man no longer had any sense of belonging to the Mu Guang Pavilion. Naturally, there was no such thing as a betrayal, so he simply told him everything he knew.

“Senior, please spare my life. I’m willing to serve you,” he said as he looked in front. Although there was no one in front of him, what he did not know was that Romo was floating on the largest tablet on the altar beside him.

Romo was not affected by the old man’s plea. “If you really want to live, it will all depend on your luck. If you can survive, then you are lucky.”

The old man did not have the chance to think about the meaning of Romo’s words. His entire body experienced another heart-wrenching pain, and the entire ancestral hall reverberated with screams.

“Ahhhh!”

This time, it was different from the previous pain. This time, a powerful energy seemed to have entered his brain, flipping through all the information without restraint. This was the Soul-Searching Magical Power.

The Soul-Searching Magical Power did not have any technical requirements. It did not consider the feelings of the target being soul-searched at all. It simply searched the memories of the target in a very harsh manner.

After about ten minutes, the old man’s nightmare finally ended. His eyes became dim, and his soul seemed to be unable to hold out anymore. It was as if he would close his eyes in the next second, and he looked as if he had been played with.

Romo, however, did not have the time to care about it. He quickly checked the information he had obtained from the soul search earlier. Although the other party had already explained a lot, Romo was still worried. He had no choice but to use the soul-searching technique to check everything to see if there was anything he had missed.

Although the soul-searching technique had caused great harm to the other party, Romo did not care about the old man’s life at all. If he were to die, it would have fulfilled Romo’s intent. If he were to live, it could be considered that he was lucky.

Romo, who was at level-3 of the Longevity Realm, could easily use the soul-searching technique on a person who no longer had any autonomy. Romo had obtained many clues about the Mu Guang Pavilion through the soul-searching technique.
