This Martial Saint's Health Bar is Too Thick!-Chapter 369 - 85 Interrogation_2

The poisoner who concocted the poison was also a master-level figure, who had sworn to her at the time that it was impossible for anyone in the world to trace any clues from the poison he had laid!

In fact, if it hadn’t been for Li Fei proposing the concept of a "Poison Formula," even Mo Yizhou wouldn’t have been able to analyze the poison that had afflicted Zhang Zongyang.

So, under normal circumstances, Feng Sanniang and her cohorts really hadn’t left any loose ends.

It was just that Li Fei had introduced an unforeseen variable beyond common reasoning.

"Do you have anything else to say?"

Li Fei stared into Feng Sanniang’s eyes and asked coldly.

"Hehe, hahahaha, hahahahahaha—"

The woman, whose neck he was clutching, suddenly burst into loud laughter.

At this moment, footsteps could be heard from the corridor outside the room.

The commotion inside had finally caught the attention of the others.

"Don’t come over—"

Feng Sanniang suddenly exclaimed.

The footsteps outside abruptly halted.

"Sanniang?"

Someone called out worriedly from outside.

"Everyone, wait outside!"

Feng Sanniang continued to command in a stern tone.

After waiting a bit, the people outside still did not rashly barge in.

Only then did she turn her gaze back to Li Fei, as if trying to see through the mask to the face beneath:

"You actually managed to trace the Meadow Sage, which indeed surprised me, but so what? You can’t exonerate Shangguan Xiao just based on that."

Li Fei remained silent.

This was precisely the reason he hadn’t sought out Feng Sanniang immediately after learning the outcome, because this single clue indeed wasn’t sufficient to clear Shangguan Xiao’s name.

The concept of a Poison Formula was an idea that transcended this era, and poisonology was an extremely profound field of study. Expecting everyone to understand and believe the results analyzed by Li Fei and Mo Yizhou was intrinsically impossible.

Or perhaps relying on Mo Yizhou’s authority as a master of poisonology to get people to believe the analysis.

This might have been possible with another case, but the Zhang Zongyang case was too intricate, and Mo Yizhou’s authority alone was far from sufficient.

Unless Mo Yizhou had a reputation and position like that of Shi Caiming, then there might be a glimmer of hope.

Therefore, it was imperative to find more crucial evidence.

But this required time, and Shangguan Xiao was already close to being convicted.

Li Fei had originally thought to leverage Wuda and then negotiate with the investigation team, to collaborate with Yan Shijin, present the lead on Feng Sanniang to them, and let them continue the investigation while delaying Shangguan Xiao’s conviction.

With this two-pronged approach and now having Feng Sanniang as a breakthrough, there was perhaps a chance of cracking this situation.

But to his surprise, Yan Shijin’s attitude was entirely unexpected, and Hao Yi had already arrived at Datong Prefecture City. The enemy behind the scenes was likely about to start closing in.

So, Li Fei had no choice but to rashly kill his way to Feng Sanniang’s side as the Green-faced Ghost and attempt to break the situation by force.

"Why are you doing this? Tell the truth, and I’ll spare your life, and I promise to provide protection afterward. If you don’t trust me, we can sign a contract."

Li Fei said to Feng Sanniang.

He didn’t believe such a large scheme could be accomplished by Feng Sanniang alone.

There had to be someone else behind this!

"Heh, you have no idea who you’re up against."

Feng Sanniang sneered.

"Then tell me."

"You think you can protect me? The Iron Blade Sect has been wiped out, is your Qingyuan City Management Company more powerful than the Iron Blade Sect? The ’Sword King’ is dead, are you more formidable than Gu Xianfeng?"

Feng Sanniang looked at Li Fei with pitiful eyes and shook her head, "You can’t even protect yourself."

Li Fei looked at her with icy eyes: "At least, the person behind you can’t let you die right now, but I can. If you tell the truth, at least there’s a chance for survival. If not, you will definitely die tonight!"

"Then just kill me, hahahahaha—"

Feng Sanniang laughed madly, her eyes crazed.

Li Fei looked at the woman in his grasp, feeling that at this moment, she had indeed gone mad.

A surge of killing intent flooded his heart; for an instant, Li Fei truly wanted to cleave her in two!

Suppressing his murderous impulse, Li Fei took a small vial from his pocket, then forcibly opened Feng Sanniang’s mouth and made her swallow two pills.

This was the latest version of Nether Spring Poison (Execution Version) concocted by Li Fei, even more potent than the version he had previously given to Zhao Yi to force a confession, and it inflicted even more pain!

Having attended Mo Yizhou’s lessons for so long, Li Fei naturally had his gains.

After swallowing the poison, Feng Sanniang’s complexion quickly changed.

She looked at Li Fei and gritted her teeth:

"Is this your method? You think this will make me submit?"

Li Fei remained silent, simply waiting for the poison’s effect to continue to take hold.

Soon, Feng Sanniang began to tremble, but her body was held immobile by Li Fei’s Force, leaving her unable to move at all.

Blood flowed continuously from her mouth, yet she bit back the pain, refusing to cry out.

"Sanniang, are you alright?"

Shouts came again from outside the door; Feng Sanniang’s subordinates could no longer bear it and wanted to burst in.

"Don’t move if you don’t want her to die!"

Li Fei turned around and bellowed a warning.

He knew his time was running out.

If there were others behind Feng Sanniang, the moment they realized something was wrong here, they would definitely send experts to intercept and kill him.

That was why he hadn’t risked taking Feng Sanniang and fleeing, then interrogating her.

What if she died in the fight while they were on the run?

So he chose to interrogate her directly, to first learn the truth. That way, whether he stayed or left, both options would be convenient.

Li Fei once again unleashed a full-powered Blood Power on the already agonizingly tormented Feng Sanniang.

Severely injured and tormented by poison, Feng Sanniang’s resistance to Magic was at its lowest, so this Blood Power left her incapacitated for a long time.

"Who ordered you to kill Zhang Zongyang?"

Li Fei pressed on, seizing the opportunity.

As he studied the Nightmare Sect’s Magic, he had also mastered some mental-level techniques:

In the mental Illusion Realm, Feng Sanniang was continuously sinking into a boundless Blood Sea; then, a commanding voice came from all directions:

"Who ordered you to kill Zhang Zongyang? Speak, and you will be freed!"

"Speak up." ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

"Say it—"

"People from the Zhang Family all deserve to die!"

"What?"

"People from the Zhang Family all deserve to die!!"

"The Zhang Family should be destroyed!"

"Whoever helps the Zhang Family, I will kill them!"

"..."

Feng Sanniang roared hysterically in the Blood Sea.

Li Fei could sense her bone-deep hatred for the Zhang Family from her mental fluctuations!

The person behind the scenes must have exploited this, leading Feng Sanniang to strike against Zhang Zongyang.

And the reason Feng Sanniang had secretly revealed the location of Li Fei’s pick-up to Yu Longqing, intending to eliminate Li Fei, was not only because she was worried he might learn the truth later but also because Li Fei was helping the Zhang Family overcome their difficulties while posing as the Green-faced Ghost.

By this logic, it could very well be that even the attack on the real Li Fei by the ’Shell Casing’ team was Feng Sanniang’s doing.

Whoever wanted to help the Zhang Family, she was determined to kill them!

Boom—

The door behind Li Fei suddenly burst open, and a figure charged in.

A man wielding a long spear, lunging forward like a dragon, stabbed at Li Fei:

"Let Sanniang go—"

He roared furiously.

This was one of Feng Sanniang’s followers at the Tao Foundation Stage, who was also madly infatuated with her.

Li Fei stopped his interrogation and turned to slash with his blade.

Clang—

The man’s spear was cleaved by an immense force; his biceps bulged as he attempted, with great effort, to pull the spear back for a sweeping strike at Li Fei.

The next second, a boundless Blood Sea appeared before his eyes...

By the time he came back to his senses, his Protective Force had been instantly shattered by Li Fei’s Vajra Blood Demon Power, and then his head was severed.

After killing the Tao Foundation Stage adversary in an instant, Li Fei picked up the limp Feng Sanniang and dashed toward the exit.

With his current Combat Power, there were few in the entire Datong Prefecture who could kill him.

He was curious to see what kind of lineup the person behind the scenes would send to intercept him tonight.

"Send a Martial Arts Master if you’re capable; that way, your identity will be exposed," Li Fei thought.

The next second, he was already fighting his way down the corridor, then broke out the window with Feng Sanniang in tow.
