This voice was still Sun Zhuo's.
However, it seemed like he had reached the brink of a mental breakdown, fierce on the outside but weak within, lacking any form of intimidation.
Lao Liu's face became increasingly rigid and fierce, his eyes wide open, and his legs moving faster!
"Yi Ming...take your medicine..."
"Go to sleep..."
"Need to sleep..."
A dull creaking sound, Lao Liu pulled open the door.
A slight chill ran through my heart, and I quickened my steps to the door, glancing sideways.
Another resounding thud, Lao Liu bumped open Wei Youming's door with a forceful shove! He entered with stiff legs!
"Youming!" The low growl was incredibly hoarse.
The scream abruptly halted.
Replaced by a thumping sound, as if someone was struggling.
It was roughly one or two minutes before Lao Liu emerged from Wei Youming's room.
He held onto a rope with a death grip, the other end of which was wrapped around Wei Youming's neck, pulling and tugging at him as he walked step by step towards the staircase.
Wei Youming had been struggling against the rope around his neck, his expression filled with innocence.
"Lao Liu, I'm not sick!"
"The one inside is sick, it's not me!"
"Fix him! I want to fix him!" Beyond innocence, there was also grievance and humiliation, as if being misunderstood to the extreme.
Lao Liu ignored Wei Youming entirely, muttering under his breath as he walked: "Take your medicine... go to sleep, go upstairs, don't come down... He told me to watch over you! I have to watch over you!"
With a few steps, Lao Liu, dragging the rope, passed by the door.
Wei Youming's struggle suddenly stopped, and he looked straight at me with wide eyes, licking his lips.
Lao Liu's actions were too quick, and he was forcibly dragging Wei Youming downstairs.
Wei Youming remained motionless, still staring at me. He even laughed, that smile was like finding what you've been looking for for a long time without any effort!
"Youming! Move!" Lao Liu barked again.
The rope was being pulled to the point of deformation!
Wei Youming was dragged away, but he turned around and watched me even as he descended the stairs.
A chill washed over me, but it was clear that Wei Youming, taken by Lao Liu, would likely find it difficult to escape.
The last time he was able to leave the sixth floor, it was mostly due to Han Zizi.
This time, it's unlikely that there will be another Han Zizi to set him free.
Taking a deep breath, I composed myself, though my heart was still thudding wildly!
I used the earth energy to subdue the Jiaguang ghost, released Deputy Director Lao Liu, and utilized Lao Liu to take Wei Youming away!
The plan may sound simple, but in practice, it's not as easy as it seems.
It was still the information from the leader, as well as his help, that played a crucial role!
Stepping forward, I directly walked towards Wei Youming's room!
Stepping forward, I stepped into the doorway.
What greeted my eyes was an extremely pitiful person!
His facial features still allowed him to be recognized as Sun Zhuo.
His scalp was bald in at least one half, covered in bloodstains, and the floor was littered with hair, clearly pulled out by the roots.
Especially his hands, all the nail beds had been peeled off.
His hands were covered in blood, and the ground was littered with patches of bloodstains.
A heavy iron chain was fastened around his waist, and one end of it extended from the ground.
At this moment, Sun Zhuo was trying to form hand seals with both hands, as if he wanted to strike the iron chain.
Suddenly, he turned his head to look at me, his eyes wide with shock and astonishment!
"Luo... Luo Xian Sheng?"
I locked eyes with Sun Zhuo.
To be honest, my plan was to see and catch Sun Zhuo!
But at this moment of achieving my plan, a sense of unreality surged through my heart.
And so, Sun Zhuo was right in front of me, captured?
However, this unreality was quickly suppressed within three seconds.
My expression became extremely cold, but a smile curled my lips.
"What did you do to Wei Youming!?" A flush of red spread across Sun Zhuo's weak face.
"He has been torturing you all along. Now that he's being taken away, why are you questioning me instead?" I exhaled heavily and said with a melancholic tone, "Is it because your bones are inherently cheap and enjoy being tortured by harsh means?"
Sun Zhuo stared at me intensely, his forehead covered in large beads of sweat.
I paused for a moment, because the words I had just spoken were actually very cruel. I myself didn't know how I could say something like that.
Perhaps, it's because the hatred has been suppressed for too long, or because I find the false smiles of Sun Zhuo too disgusting.
"What can you do to me?"
"Kill me? Hah, I am a candidate for the Taoist school's supervisor, and the third disciple under Mingjing True of the Four Rules Mountain! If you kill me, from the heaven to the underworld, the Four Rules Mountain will certainly hunt you down until you die!" Sun Zhuo's words were filled with threats.
Furthermore, he moved extremely quickly, striking the iron chain with his fists and palms, while quickly reciting a spell!
The result was that the iron chain remained motionless, showing no sign of breaking.
Sun Zhuo's punches and palms did not produce electric arcs as they had before.
I could faintly see a layer of Yin energy enveloping him, as if it were trying to seep into his skin and penetrate deep into his flesh.
It should be this layer of Yin energy that restricts Sun Zhuo's strength.
"Damn..." Sun Zhuo's face turned pale.
"You are the one who deserves to die," I responded calmly.
"…" Sun Zhuo stared at me again, his tone cold and icy. "Rude! What good does it do to break this chain? As long as I stand here, you can't harm me! When Wei Youming returns, don't you think you'll end up in a bad situation?"
"You can't do anything to me, neither can Wei Youming. Either come over and die by my hand now, or wait until later and die by Wei Youming's hand!"
"I only see you, Luo Xian Sheng, as a pitiful and insignificant worm. Even as you live miserably and humbly until today, you still have to die in disgrace!" Sun Zhuo's words exuded extreme arrogance, provocation, and showed complete contempt and indifference towards me.
A knot formed in my brows, and my face became even colder. With a swift motion, I had two hair-cutting knives in my hands.
At this moment, Sun Zhuo gave up on breaking the iron chain and coldly regarded me.
As I got close enough, Sun Zhuo suddenly leapt up, shot an arrow into the air, and charged at me!
I crossed my arms, and suddenly, I took a step back.
A gust of wind just grazed my forearms. Sun Zhuo stood in the position where I had stepped back, his waist bent at an almost unnatural angle as the iron chain pulled him. He extended his hands in a claw shape, tearing off the cloth from my sleeve.
With a flick of his hand, the cloth landed on the ground.
Sun Zhuo sneered and said coldly, "Luo Xian Sheng, don't you think it's pitiful of yourself? Even if today I have my fingernails torn out, painfully piercing my bones, without using any weapons, you still can't do anything to me!"
My mood was as tumultuous as the weather, and my face turned even uglier than before.
I knew Sun Zhuo was strong, but I didn't expect that he, after being tortured to such an extent, would still possess considerable strength.
At that moment, the sound of footsteps suddenly came from the hallway.
My pupils constricted slightly, and I retreated two steps to the door, glancing sideways at the direction of the sound.
A look of surprise and joy appeared on Sun Zhuo's face, and he said with a melancholic tone, "Even if Wei Youming has been tormenting me, what can he do? I will eventually escape. Luo Xian Sheng, you are the one who is doomed to die!"
"Wei Youming is even more interested in you than he is in me!"
"A worthless dog lives to see another day! Who gave you the right to live, Luo Xian Sheng?" Sun Zhuo's words were firm and resolute!
