But now, his miraculous fire manipulation and the mysterious and powerful flames make him seem like a fire cultivator.
This layering of the three identities elevates Xue An’s position in his mind infinitely higher.
Could it be...
He is a cultivator of sword, body, and fire?
This thought terrifies him, and he no longer has any hope of luck, making Xue An’s questioning process very smooth.
"What is your name?"
"In response to your question, sir, my name is Tang Longtao!"
"What do you usually do?"
"We make a living by robbing!"
Xue An sneered, "Is that all?"
Tang Longtao trembled, his face pale and said, "Sometimes... sometimes we also kill a few people!"
"Is it merely killing a few people?" Xue An raised his hand to point at the eye-ringed man still tortured by the fiery soul refining.
"He alone bears the unjust souls of at least thousands of young girls. Do you call this merely killing a few people?"
Tang Longtao was dumbfounded, unable to respond.
"Tell me, why are you here?"
"Of course, it’s to attend the gathering ahhhhhh!"
As he spoke, a wisp of flame emerged from the tip of Tang Longtao’s left finger and quickly ascended, the flesh and bones turning to ashes.
Not only the flesh, but even the left hand on his soul disappeared.
Such pain made Tang Longtao let out a scream like a slaughtered pig.
Xue An looked coldly, his voice indifferent, "Do you believe if you dare lie to me again, this flame will gradually roast you to nothingness, which is the dual pain of flesh and soul!"
"Spare me, sir, spare me, I will tell you everything, I will tell you everything!" Tang Longtao desperately begged.
The flame then halted at Tang Longtao’s shoulder.
"Speak, what exactly is scum like you planning to do at this gathering?"
Tang Longtao was drenched in sweat, "In response to your question, sir, we are here because someone bribed us to kill a person and take his belongings!"
"Oh? Whom were you supposed to eliminate, and who bribed you?"
"We don’t actually know who bribed us; ten days ago, a man in black suddenly visited us, paid a generous deposit for us to come to this gathering and eliminate a woman named Lou Yingshi, and take an item from her. Once done, more rewards were promised!"
"So you came?" Xue An asked.
"Yes!"
"Haha, wouldn’t such scum normally dismiss the contract after receiving the deposit?" Xue An sneered.
Tang Longtao appeared embarrassed, "We did consider that, but the man offered a very high price, and he told us he only wanted the item carried by the woman named Lou Yingshi!"
"Besides, the woman named Lou Yingshi clearly seemed to carry abundant resources, so we were tempted!"
"Do you know what item you were supposed to find?"
"No, but according to the man in black, it’s likely an object similar to armor!"
"Armor?" Xue An’s heart stirred, showing a contemplative look.
Tang Longtao hurriedly begged, "Sir, I didn’t mean to provoke you. It’s all due to my subordinates’ ignorance, and they’ve received their due punishment! Moreover, I’ve lost an arm!"
"So, sir, please be lenient and spare me a way out. I promise to repent and never do bad deeds again!"
