Chapter 924 - The Inner Kingdom: The Duke Of Darkness

Chapter 924

(Unedited)

Standing beside the table is a tall figure wearing a serious expression on his face while looking at Yuma's horrified face. At this moment one could tell that Yuma is really afraid upon seeing the man in front of him. The man is showing a slightly mocking smile on his face which sends shivers down Yuma's spine.

He did not expect that this man would be able to suddenly wake up. He was sure that the dust enters his system and even right now he could still feel his connection inside of this man. However, what baffled him is that those things are not moving or flowing through the man's bloodstream.

He should have checked it earlier. He should have seen how those things began to congregate and were collected until they are all in the middle of Shin Jiao's body.

"You seem surprised?" Shin Jiao said with a smile.

This smile made Yuma take a step back for fear that Shin Jiao would suddenly attack him just like what he did to him at the restaurant.

As the two look at each other, Yuma suddenly feels something strange. It was his body… that's right… his body… he is unable to move his body.

It was like a paralysis spell that made his body unable to move or do anything. But the difference is that a paralysis spell would immobilize him make his body unable to feel anything, while the thing that he is feeling right now is just weird.

He still has his senses but he could not move his body. It was as if he is being held down by a very strong invisible force.

"Ma… Master Shin… Master Shin, this is all a misunderstanding…" Yuma said with a trembling voice.

How could he not be afraid? He is just an Arch Mage. How could he fight against someone who has unknown strength? He even gathered intelligence that says that this person is very strong that he is able to destroy a mage tower.

Destroying a mage tower, what kind of concept is that?

To be able to destroy a mage tower one should be able to wield strength far more than that of a Grand Magus. This is because even a Grand Magus has no ability to penetrate a mage tower's defenses how much more to destroy one.

So now that he is in front of this guy and learning that his tricks did not work anymore, his heart could not calm down.

"Hmm… Let's play a game… I ask and you answer. If I am satisfied, then I might lessen your punishment. But if you lied to me, then you can only blame yourself." Shin Jiao said giving Yuma an option.

Yuma's forehead is already covered with sweats. He looks at Shin Jiao and suddenly discovered that his men are already coming back. He wanted to grab this opportunity to escape.

Suddenly from the corner of the room the door opened.

When this happened, Yuma suddenly wanted to run, but it seems that he has forgotten that he is still under Shin Jiao's psychokinesis.

Ugh…

He could not help but groan in exasperation.

His men who saw that something is happening suddenly launched an attack at Shin Jiao.

However, one by one, they all froze in the air just like their master.

"Hmm… Since no one is able to disturb us shall we begin?" Shin Jiao said.

But then Yuma suddenly blows something from his mouth and the whole room was flooded with gray smoke.

Shin Jiao immediately could tell that this smoke contains bacteria. It seems that this guy is also involved in the production of those things.

Suddenly, Yuma feels that his body is slowly recovering. He now feels confident that this person is not immune to the disease. So if his ace did not work, he could also use the disease to fight against this guy.

But too bad, because of the disease he would not be able to extract anything from that person's brain. This is because the disease would cause that person to die early especially with the large amount he just released.

"Hehe… You just really have an unlucky day. Since you have already been exposed to the disease, now that I added some more of it in your system, then you can only die faster…" Yuma snorted coldly as he ran towards the wall and with a push of a secret button his figure disappear from the spot.

Meanwhile, Shin Jiao has already killed the rest of Yuma's thugs. He then walks to the wall and presses the same button.

Since coming to this place, he knew that there are more secrets in this room. And only by using Yuma could the secrets be revealed.

And so he chases slowly behind Yuma as he goes through the dark corridor. While walking inside he has already spread his spiritual sense and saw the frantic escaping Yuma.

He soon discovers that Yuma has entered a small white room.

While catching his breath, Yuma began to rummage through the closet and the drawers. He takes out a few of the books and scrolls inside the drawers and the closet.

"This would be my bargaining chip to the Duke…" he muttered as he looks at the things in his arms.

Suddenly he discovers that he is unable to move once again. Upon feeling this, he knew that he must have fallen into a trap. He was actually tricked twice.

This made him grit his teeth in exasperation and helplessness. He now knew how he was played by the cunning man.

His mind is now churning trying to think of a way to escape this situation he is in. He could not use any of his secret weapons on the guy, so he could only use words to coax him to spare his life.

However, it seems that Yuma is a little expectant. But he was soon put in despair.

This is because his neck is slowly rotating to the side. When he felt this he wanted to resist but how could he?

"No… No please don't kill me! I am still of use to you! I know many secrets of the duke!" shouted Yuma.

When Shin Jiao heard this, his expression did not change and just continue to twist the head of Yuma.

Sensing that the person would not believe him, Yuma felt panicky now. He wanted to struggle but it is to no avail. As his head slowly turns he knew that soon it would reach a point where his neck would be twisted beyond its capacity and by that time he would die a painful but slow death.

Without a choice, he has to throw his cards on the line so that he might have a chance at life. He showed that he is gritting his teeth and suddenly blurted out.

"The Duke is using both light and dark magic and he is working with a very powerful dark mage!" Yuma shouted.

When Shin Jiao heard this, he stopped and showed a faint smile on his face.

"Is that all?" Shin Jiao asked.

"Ah… Yes… I mean no, there is another thing." Yuma said with slight hesitation.

Shin Jiao did not say anything and just waited. But Yuma grabs this chance to do something crazy.

He was about to open his mouth when he suddenly closes it. The force broke something in his mouth and foam began to come out.

Shin Jiao knew that the guy grabs the opportunity to commit suicide. He was not worried though. This is because Shin Jiao did not need anything from the guy. Everything inside the room is already enough for him to find out what is really happening.

With the scan from his spiritual sense, he has already seen some of the details with regards to the duke and what is happening in the city.

And so, Yuma died by poisoning. However, Shin Jiao suddenly pierced his heart with a sword which suddenly appears in his hand.

The already dead Yuma suddenly seemed to have come to life as he looks at Shin Jiao with a shocked expression on his face.

"Do you think you can fool me?" Shin Jiao said with a faint smile.

Then suddenly something happened in the body of Yuma. Instead of dying small flames appear all around his body as it burns his flesh little by little.

"Do you know why I want you to die slowly?" Shin Jiao asked at the dumfounded Yuma.

"I know that poison has no effect on you. I also know that you are not that easy to kill… but… I have my ways to kill you." he said.

"You have caused too much suffering to those people in the prison cell. The experiments and the suffering of those people, I want you to experience little by little as your flesh slowly turns into ashes…" he said with a smile.

Yuma could not scream, he could not do anything. But he could feel the extreme pain of getting burned alive and this pain lasted for an hour.

At this time, Shin Jiao leisurely reads the things inside the room while waiting for Yuma to turn into ashes.

And what he reads in the notes thoroughly astounded him.

"The Duke of darkness, what an interesting fellow...."
