Chapter 196: Chapter 196: I Used to Work in the Imperial Palace Purification Room Before

With a slightly cold gaze, Qianxun stepped forward and took out the ancient book on Taoist magic written by Mo Tianji.

Although she despised Mo Tianji, the book was old and could still be useful to Yanzhi, so she did not flip through the pages too vigorously, but rather gently opened it and started reading nonchalantly.

After flipping through four or five pages, Qianxun’s pupils suddenly contracted.

On the seemingly fragile page, there was a clear description of how to seal a demon.

And the page on how to undo the seal had been torn out from the middle!

Her fist clenched tightly, and Qianxun’s eyes became icy.

Had someone intentionally torn out this page?

Was it to prevent her rescue?

...

Quickly, Qianxun calmed her emotions and continued to read.

In no time, she finished a book that even a Taoist genius would find mentally taxing to read.

Of course, this was all thanks to her intimate familiarity with the subject matter.

After all, she had dealt with Mo Tianji, the most powerful Taoist a thousand years ago. Since demons were the sworn enemies of Taoists, and even though the emperor had protected her from Mo Tianji, she still needed to understand Taoist magic, didn’t she?

Yet, in the end, she had still fallen into the hands of that Mo Tianji!

But she did not regret her choices made back then, for without them, Yanzhi would have perished in that battle.

...

After finishing the book in her hands, Qianxun narrowed her eyes slightly, then simply used magic to scan through all the books on the shelves.

After absorbing the information, she sat down cross-legged on the sofa and began to digest what she had learned.

Inside the prison at that moment, Huo Tianzun was glaring with a deadly aura at the weakened Black Bear Spirit in front of him.

"Still not willing to talk?" Huo Tianzun asked the Black Bear Spirit coldly.

Upon hearing this, the Black Bear Spirit immediately said, "I... I really don’t know, it was all the Snake Demon’s instigation! I truly don’t know why it could break the Formation here."

Huo Tianzun heard this and stood up emotionlessly.

Seeing this, Diao Ling cautiously asked, "Boss... should we torture it harshly?"

Once this was said, Huo Tianzun shot him a look and said, "No need."

Diao Ling was somewhat surprised; the Black Bear Spirit was an important demon with knowledge. The boss really wasn’t going to interrogate it?

The Black Bear Spirit also felt a sudden relief in its heart.

It knew that as long as it kept its mouth shut and admitted to nothing, Huo Tianzun would have no way to deal with it. Once it confessed, it would be punished with over a hundred years added to its sentence.

But the next moment, its body stiffened.

...

"It’s better that it doesn’t speak. We can use that as a perfect excuse to kill it openly and take its Bear Paw and Bear Gallbladder to stew as a tonic for your sister-in-law. A spirit’s Bear Paw and Gallbladder are great nourishments," Huo Tianzun said in an offhand manner.

After speaking, he continued, "As for the truth... if there is a second time, there will be a third time. We’ll know eventually. There’s no need to rush."

After saying this, Huo Tianzun looked towards the Prison Guards.

"Go ahead, just be careful not to damage its gallbladder," Huo Tianzun said.

Hearing this, the Prison Guard, who was also a Tiger Demon, shuddered and then promptly replied, "Don’t worry, boss, my knife is steady!"

Then he let out a sly chuckle as he approached the Black Bear Spirit, "Old Hei, I’ve been wanting to taste your paws for a long time now. Finally got the chance. Also, your balls will make perfect wine-soaking material."

As soon as he said that, a pair of gleaming watermelon knives appeared in his palms.

"You know, I used to work in the Imperial Palace Purification Room! My moves are fast, ruthless, and precise. I assure you won’t feel a thing," he said, and then those golden eyes peculiarly shifted down towards the lower part of the Black Bear Spirit.
