Chapter 1209: Slaying a God (3)
“You shouldn’t have attacked!” Daoist Priest Yichen said.
Xu Changsheng knew that he was one of the trump cards hidden by the higher-ups. If he attacked at the critical moment, he could catch everyone off guard and reverse the situation. He would gain more benefits. If he attacked now, the attention of everyone would be attracted, including Emperor Xia’s people. Once he was exposed, the gains would not be worth it.
Shaking his head, he said in a low and cold voice,”I understand!” However, the value of the Shangjing Rice formula is too great. If we can obtain it and turn it into benefits, the benefits will be immeasurable.”
Daoist Priest Yichen understood this logic. It represented an endless amount of silver. With money, one could do many things, such as bribing officials, developing their forces, and nurturing experts.
” I’m just a little bit away from the formula for that thing. I’ll be able to figure it out soon. Come and get it in three days,” he continued.
“There’s no hurry.” Xu Changsheng shook his head.
He looked at the ceiling, and his gaze seemed to fall on the sky outside.
“It’s already dark. We have to make him speak before dawn!”
Daoist Priest Yi Chen felt bitter.” This person’s mouth is very hard. This Penniless Priest interrogated him for a whole day and used all sorts of methods, but he didn’t say a single word! I saw very clearly that once he hands over the Shangjing Rice formula, it will be his death.”
” There’s a limit to how much a person can take,” Xu Changsheng said sarcastically.” There’s a limit to how much they can take. If you go beyond this limit, you’ll just say whatever you want.” Of course, there are also some people who would rather die than submit. Such people have no desires. Even if they are tortured to death, they will not speak!”
His gaze fell on Tie Xuecheng.
“He obviously isn’t! He can even betray his own parents and put the Tie family in danger. He wants to climb up and gain more power. No matter how clear he is, he will confess after destroying the defense line.”
He took a step forward.

He grabbed Tie Xuecheng’s chin roughly and exerted strength in his five fingers. He squeezed them together roughly with great killing intent.” You’re a smart person. Tell me honestly where the Shangjing Rice recipe is and I’ll give you a quick death!”
Tie Xuecheng’s hair was disheveled, and there was blood at the corner of his mouth. There was not a single part of his body that was intact. Some of the wounds were even more frightening. White bones were exposed, and some of them were missing a piece of bone. If they had not been treated, they would have died long ago. Even so, they were only half alive.
Looking into the eyes in front of him, there was no fear!
Although he didn’t know who they were, they must be from Great Xia. If it wasn’t for them, he wouldn’t have fallen into this situation and wouldn’t have been tortured.
He thought about how he was just one step away from success after gambling everything in exchange for wealth and honor. He would have good food and drinks, and he would also have the princess and Tao Xiu to serve him. If he managed well, he might be able to hold great power in the Shang Dynasty. Now that they were all gone, his hatred exploded. He even had the heart to swallow them alive. Without any warning, he spat out a mouthful of saliva mixed with blood towards his face.
Xu Changsheng tilted his head and dodged the attack easily. A terrifying chill rushed out of his body and the surrounding temperature dropped to freezing point. His eyes were even colder.” Stubborn!”
He took out a sharp dagger, and the blade flickered with a cold light.
“Aren’t you not afraid of anything? I want to see if I can endure the dismemberment.”
With a wave of his sleeve, a green light shot down and shattered Tie Xuecheng’s clothes.
” Let’s go!” The dagger swung and pointed at his right arm like a demon.” Start here!”
“Bring it on!” Tie Xuecheng was not afraid at all.
Xu Changsheng frowned and recovered in an instant. He wondered if he had seen wrongly. He somewhat understood why Daoist Priest Yichen’s interrogation had failed. He was in a difficult position to back down. He had already made his threat and had to carry it out!
Moreover…
They did not have much time left. The people from the other factions and the Absolute Beginning Demon God could find them at any time. They had to get the recipe of Shangjing Rice before they did. With a flash of the saber, a piece of flesh fell. It was as thin as a cicada’s wing, and the size was even. The strength was controlled very well.
“This is the first piece! You won’t die before I finish cutting you three hundred and sixty times.”
It hurt! Deep into the bone marrow!
Tie Xuecheng was numb, or perhaps crazy. There was only one belief in his heart. He could either go to hell with the Shangjing Rice recipe and be buried with it, or he could become the emperor’s son-in-law of the Shang Dynasty. No matter how sharp the blade was, no matter how painful the wound was, he would endure it with great perseverance and not make a sound.
His eyes were fierce like a hungry wolf as he stared at Xu Changsheng. Even someone as strong as Xu Changsheng panicked without any warning under his inhuman gaze.
He snapped back to his senses and was furious. He swung the blade even faster. Twenty-one consecutive slashes, and pieces of meat fell to the ground. Blood flowed out continuously. Tie Xuecheng’s face was getting paler and paler. He was about to faint from the excessive bleeding and intense pain.
Xu Changsheng injected a stream of vital essence into his body to seal the wound and prevent blood from flowing out.
The saber light flickered as it continued to cut.
An arm was quickly cut off, leaving only white bones. It was dark and scary. When a timid person saw this scene, he instantly fainted, leaving a huge shadow in his heart.
Tie Xuecheng did not make a sound from the beginning to the end. He just watched coldly. His gaze was even more terrifying. It was no longer human eyes. It was not an exaggeration to call him a ferocious and ferocious ancient beast. Although he was weak, his words were even more terrifying than a demon that had crawled out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.” Why did you stop?” Continue!”
Xu Changsheng was frustrated. The ant in front of him could be crushed with a wave of his hand, but he dared to provoke him. His right arm had already been dismembered. Judging from his attitude, there would be no consequences if he continued dismembering. He had no place to vent his anger. A green light rushed out and destroyed the dagger. He turned around in anger.
