Chapter 724: The Cruel Mafia Boss

"Do you recognize these people?" one of the men in black suits asked, showing her a picture on an iPad.

The image displayed the faces of several men. Even with their masks on, she recognized them instantly: Xiao Li, Feng Huang, Tian Tian, and Lu Long. The man who appeared slightly shorter than the others was undoubtedly Xiao Qiu.

However, Shenlian Yingyue’s expression remained unchanged; her mind was fiercely battling her instinctive reaction to the news that her "baby angels" had harmed someone.

She firmly believed that her baby angels had their reasons for beating or even killing. She never questioned their decisions. If they had attacked these individuals, it meant those people were bad.

She never judged anyone based on their appearance or identity. But those who had kidnapped her seemed oblivious to the fact that injecting needles into her and Xie Xie’s skin could cause them significant harm—especially if they were not cultivators.

"Should I answer this question?" Shenlian Yingyue stared into the eyes of the mafia boss. His black eyes held a gloomy, ruthless glint.

The mafia boss regarded her with indifference, as if she were an inconsequential insect. He simply waved his hand, and a group of men closed in around Shenlian Yingyue and Xie Xie.

Xie Xie narrowed his eyes, disliking the scent of the men who approached them.

"You refuse our hospitality? Then we’ll serve you the punishment drink so you understand your place, you insignificant insect!" The henchmen seemed eager to vent their frustration on her for what Xiao Li and the others had done.

They brandished guns, knives, and other instruments of torture, their methods exceedingly cruel.

"How about we cut off their fingers one by one and then soak their hands in alcohol?" one person proposed.

"I think we should slice open their stomachs, let them bleed until they’re on the brink of death, and then sew up their wounds with needles," one of a men in black suit suggested.

"Or we could toss them into the crocodile pit. The boss’s pets have been quite ravenous lately. Fresh human meat might keep them well-behaved," another man chimed in.

Their conversation was filled with laughter that dripped with malice.

Although Xie Xie was unfamiliar with the concept of alcohol here, he could tell at a glance that it was something menacing.

"Do you usually torture people in this way?" Shenlian Yingyue’s face was expressionless as she asked. Her pair of clear but indescribable eyes met the mafia boss’s gaze without flinching.

The surroundings suddenly fell silent. No one dared to speak; it had been a century since anyone had questioned their boss so fearlessly.

In this situation, shouldn’t this woman be trembling like a weak beast, crying and crawling to the boss’s feet to beg for mercy?

"Hahaaaha!" Instead of answering, the mafia boss merely laughed coldly. He seemed amused that a ’weak woman’ like her would dare to challenge him and hold his gaze.
