Chapter 1373: Torture

Chapter 1373: Chapter 1373: Torture

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Cai Li asked nervously, as Lin Tian’s gaze was truly frightening.

Thinking of Wu Yong’s arrogant demeanor just now, Cai Li couldn’t doubt that the guy would beat him up again. These rich people were all so lawless.

"The man is dead, and the woman is half paralyzed." Lin Tian said coolly, his eyes still fixed on Cai Li, observing every detail on his face; not a single expression could escape him.

Hearing this answer, a flash of excitement crossed Cai Li’s eyes, but he quickly masked it, replacing it with a regretful and sorrowful look, saying, "I really regret it, I’m so sorry."

"Is that so? Then why were you so pleased?"

"What?"

"According to Article 133 of the Criminal Law: ’Violating transportation management regulations and resulting in a major accident that causes serious injury, death, or significant damage to public or private property, shall be punished by imprisonment or detention of up to three years. Fleeing after a traffic accident or having other particularly bad circumstances shall be punished by imprisonment of three to seven years; causing death due to fleeing shall be punished by imprisonment of seven or more years.’

"In other words, you can now be sentenced to at least seven years. Moreover, with my power, I can multiply that number, letting you rot in there and die old. Under such circumstances, I don’t know what you could still be happy about."

Upon hearing this, Cai Li’s expression changed, and he waved his hand, saying: "I’m not happy at all."

"At this point, it’s too late to cover up. Your expression just now has already betrayed you."

As he spoke, Lin Tian walked over, squatted down, closing the distance between them to about a meter.

At such close range, Lin Tian could smell the stronger odor of sweat from Cai Li. Cai Li could also feel the oppressive force emanating from Lin Tian.

"Tell me, who instigated you to do this? I want to hear the before and after of the event!" Lin Tian’s eyes were sharp, cold enough to make one shiver.

Cai Li shrank back in fear towards the corner of the wall, saying: "What are you talking about? I really don’t understand."

"Don’t understand? Alright then." Lin Tian didn’t force him, he reached for his waist.

Then, Cai Li watched with his own eyes, Lin Tian somehow pulled out a gray cloth bag, rolled up so that nothing inside could be seen. But Cai Li had a premonition that it wouldn’t be anything good.

Lin Tian opened the cloth bag in front of Cai Li, only then was it revealed that inside the inconspicuous cloth bag there were various shaped silver needles, looking chillingly intimidating.

"What are you going to do?" Cai Li was obviously startled, his voice rough as he said: "This is illegal! This is bodily harm!"

Lin Tian was amused: "Are you even afraid of breaking the law? What if I harm you? In my eyes, you’re just a slightly useful ant."

With that said effortlessly, Lin Tian took a thin, long silver needle from the bag, about ten centimeters in length. Under the light, it seemed to emit a chill.

"This set of silver needles has a nice name, called ’Royal Spiritual Divine Needles,’ made from the rare metal ’Imperial Iron,’ totaling 108 pieces, researched by over 360 Imperial Physicians from the Ancient Dynasty. I’m telling you all of this to inform you that these needles can save lives, even more powerful than the surgical knives in the hands of internationally renowned doctors. But, when it comes to harming people, it’s equally competent. You’re honored to be the first."

Lin Tian’s casual voice sounded in Cai Li’s ears, practically indistinguishable from a threat.

He didn’t care about the background of these so-called divine needles; if such long things were jabbed into the body, what if they made a mistake?

"Now, can you tell me? Who incited you?" Lin Tian toyed with the silver needle in his hand as he asked.

Cai Li instinctively swallowed, then shook his head forcefully, saying: "I don’t know what you’re talking about."

"Still so stubborn." Lin Tian glanced back at Wu Yong, saying: "Hold him down!"

"Alright." Wu Yong replied cheerfully, then rushed forward in a few steps.

Cai Li was indeed terrified. He flailed his limbs wildly, shouting hysterically, "Don’t come over, don’t come over!"

"Shut up your MLGB." Wu Yong cursed, raised his hand, and left a red palm print on his face, then without another word, pinched his wrists, held his legs down with one hand, while his knees pinned his other leg tightly.

This left Cai Li without a trace of strength to resist. He truly didn’t know where this guy, who was half a head shorter than him, got such strength from; his hands felt like iron clamps.

Wu Yong also suffered; this close proximity with Cai Li made the long brewing sour odor rush into his nostrils. The pungent sensation nearly caused Wu Yong to pass out, he dry-heaved multiple times, almost vomiting.

Lin Tian couldn’t help but laugh at his miserable appearance: "Is it that smelly?"

"Damn it! Hurry up, I’m going to be sick, ugh~"

Mei Ruyan couldn’t help but laugh from the side; Wu Yong’s scene was really too comical. But looking at his greenish complexion, it certainly wasn’t comfortable.

"No problem, this is spiritual essence, inhale a bit more to help with sleep." Lin Tian joked with a smile.

"Buddy! Hurry up, or I’m going to pass out!" Wu Yong was filled with murderous impulse, really wanting to strangle this Cai guy and be done with it!

Lin Tian restrained his playful expression, held the needle in his right hand, spiritual qi spread through the meridians into the silver needle, then quickly pierced out.

Cai Li, this lowly creature, without giving him some trouble, he would never tell the truth. Even if he surrendered early, Lin Tian wouldn’t let him go; he nearly killed that genius kid, how could he be let off easily?

One silver needle pierced below Cai Li’s throat, the spiritual qi inside the Royal Spiritual Divine Needle instantly burst forth, almost immediately blocking Cai Li’s throat, making him unable to breathe in or out.

Cai Li’s eyes widened instantly, nearly rolling back and fainting. Meanwhile, his limbs convulsed desperately, trying to pull out the silver needle, but unfortunately, Wu Yong had him pinned so firmly, leaving Cai Li feeling deeply powerless.

Just then, Lin Tian’s hands moved quickly, pulling out a second silver needle from the bag, causing Cai Li’s face to change drastically, almost banging his head against the wall behind.

Without any unnecessary movements, Lin Tian pierced again, this time below Cai Li’s navel.

Following that, Lin Tian took out a third silver needle, aimed straight at the top of Cai Li’s head!
