Chapter 2232: Really Hard Mouth

"Ah!"

Guan Qirui immediately let out a bloodcurdling scream, but Gongsun Liang had already set up a soundproof barrier, so not a single sound could escape.

The two guards at the door seemed to sense something was wrong, looked back, and then two streams of finger wind pierced through their foreheads, causing them to fall to the ground with a thud.

Gongsun Ming said coldly, "Are you going to speak or not?"

"I really don't know anything!"

As a profligate Young Master, how could Guan Qirui have any backbone to speak of?

If he could speak, he would have long since done so. The problem was that he truly knew nothing and had no idea what the other party wanted to ask.

"Kid, you're really stubborn. Let's see how long you can last!"

Gongsun Ming firmly believed the words of the Jubao Pavilion manager. In his opinion, Guan Qirui simply didn't want to tell him, so he unhesitatingly broke his other arm.

"Ah! I'll talk, I'll say everything! Please, just let me go!"

Having lived for so many years, this was the first time Guan Qirui had felt such despair.

Gongsun Ming sneered, "I thought you could be stubborn for a while longer. Hurry up and tell me, where is the flame stone? Hand it over quickly!"

"It's… it's… it's with Laiyang Princess Dugu Hong!"

Guan Qirui was truly out of options and randomly threw this blame onto Laiyang Princess.

"Kid, do you think we brothers are easy to fool?"

Gongsun Liang raised his hand and slapped him across the face. "We brothers have already checked. Laiyang Princess doesn't have the flame stone on her at all.

Quickly, where exactly did you hide the item?"

Seeing that he couldn't deflect the blame, Guan Qirui could only say with a bitter face, "Sirs, please, just let me go!

I truly don't know what a flame stone is. You must have made a mistake. I never even went to Jubao Pavilion!"

"This kid is really f***ing stubborn! I don't believe I can't pry your mouth open today. If you don't honestly tell me, do you believe I'll crush every one of your bones?"

The Yin Yang Two Immortals were not good people to begin with, and at this moment, they showed no mercy at all.

Gongsun Ming kicked out, and with cracking sounds, he broke both of his lower legs into two sections.

Guan Qirui let out a miserable shriek and was about to faint, but Gongsun Liang woke him up with two big slaps. He couldn't even faint now if he wanted to.

About a quarter of an hour later, all the bones in Guan Qirui's body were crushed.

(End of this chapter, please turn the page)

His entire body had already gone limp, turning into a puddle of flesh.

If he hadn't been tied to the tree, he probably wouldn't even be able to stand.

This Young Master of the Guan family truly experienced what it meant to be unable to live and unable to die. He had previously bullied men and women and committed all sorts of evil deeds, so his current plight was well-deserved.

Gongsun Liang said, "Big Brother, something seems off! Normally, this guy's bones shouldn't be this hard. Let's just use the Soul Searching Technique!"

"Alright, we can't worry about too much now."

After Gongsun Ming finished speaking, he directly placed his hand on the other party's Baihui point and performed the Soul Searching Technique.

His Mental Energy was not as strong as Ye Bufan's, and his Soul Searching Technique was not as exquisite as the Soul Searching Technique. Once performed, the other party would surely die.

He had previously thought that this guy might still be useful, so he hadn't used it. Now, he couldn't care less.

A moment later, Guan Qirui foamed at the mouth, twitched all over, rolled his eyes, and completely died.

Gongsun Ming's expression was grim. He had searched all of the other party's memories, but he had not found what he wanted.

Gongsun Liang asked, "Big Brother, how is it? Where is the dragon absorption stone hidden?"

"This guy doesn't know at all. He wasn't lying before. He really didn't go to Jubao Pavilion and never saw the dragon absorption stone."

Gongsun Liang's expression changed. "How is this possible? Do you mean Jubao Pavilion dared to lie to us brothers?"

"It shouldn't be. They have no reason to lie to us, nor do they have the guts."

Gongsun Ming said with a gloomy expression, "If I'm not mistaken, the person who went to Jubao Pavilion for the auction at that time was not Guan Qirui at all, but someone disguised as him. The purpose was to hide himself and confuse the public."

"What a cunning kid, what a brilliant method!"

Gongsun Liang said, "Big Brother, what should we do now?"

"Don't worry, we'll investigate slowly. We'll find him eventually."

Gongsun Ming said, "The reason that kid framed Guan Qirui must be because he is very familiar with him.

Moreover, there was a grudge between the two of them. If we follow this clue, we'll eventually dig him out."

After speaking, the figures of the two instantly disappeared from the courtyard, leaving behind only the corpse of the Guan family's Young Master.

In the Prince's study, Dugu Zhan sat by the window, slowly sipping fragrant tea.

At this moment, the head guard of the Prince's Estate rushed in, "Your Highness, something has happened!"

"What happened?"

(End of this chapter, please turn the page)

Dugu Zhan frowned in displeasure. His daughter had just been bullied in a small medical clinic, which already made him extremely unhappy. He didn't expect the head guard to rush over again, shouting that something had happened.

"Your Highness, just now, Young Master Guan Qirui of the Guan family died!"

"Dead? What happened?"

Dugu Zhan looked puzzled. Logically, his daughter wasn't home, so she couldn't have killed the other party.

The head guard said, "I just had the coroner examine the injuries. All the bones in Guan Qirui's body were crushed. He must have suffered torture.

However, that wasn't his final cause of death. The cause of death was an attack by a Mental Energy, likely a Soul Searching Technique.

Based on my subordinate's deduction, an outsider secretly infiltrated the Prince's Estate, and they were an absolute master, trying to extract something from his mouth."

Dugu Zhan frowned again. Guan Qirui was a profligate Young Master, to put it bluntly, a complete good-for-nothing. What could he possibly know?

Unable to figure it out, he stopped thinking. He waved his hand, "Alright, let it go. Inform the Guan family to come and claim the body.

Then, strengthen the defenses within the estate. We cannot allow just anyone to enter anymore."

For him, the death of one Guan Qirui was nothing at all; there was no need to take it to heart.

"Yes, your subordinate will immediately send someone to handle it."

The head guard was about to leave after speaking but was called back by Dugu Zhan again.

"What about the Princess? Has any news come back?"

Dugu Zhan was still very concerned about this daughter. Although Dugu Hong was extremely ugly and had a difficult personality, she was, after all, his own flesh and blood.

The most crucial thing was that when he was young, he had indulged in debauchery, which ultimately harmed his body, leaving him with only this one daughter. After that, he had no more offspring, so he treasured her immensely.

"Not yet, but Elder Lu has gone. Dealing with a small doctor shouldn't be a problem."

The head guard said, "It won't be long before Her Highness the Princess returns victorious…"

Before he could finish speaking, there was a flurry of footsteps outside the door.

Then, the door was slammed open, and four guards of the Prince's Estate carried Dugu Hong in from outside, followed by a stumbling Lu Bingkun.

Seeing his daughter beaten like a pig's head and with all her limbs crippled, Dugu Zhan instantly became furious.

"Tell me, who did this? Who dared to lay a hand on this Prince's daughter?"
