Disciple, Don't Cause Trouble, Master Won't Leave the Mountain! Chapter 77: The Tragic Fate

Chapter 77: The Tragic Fate

Qin Mingzhu’s eyes widened slightly. She opened her mouth but did not say anything. Such an answer was indeed out of her expectations.

He Gu was a completely different person from He Junjie and He Zhao. He was not even from the same world as her. He was so pure and innocent.

Qin Mingzhu suddenly felt that she could not bring herself to say the things that she had wanted to say to him before their marriage. This shy and bashful young man had become close to her after learning that they were going to get married.

Just like the ordinary people in the city, he adored and respected his wife. Perhaps, this was what marriage looked like in her imagination.

Qin Mingzhu was in a daze. When He Gu saw that she did not speak, he became even more nervous. He could not help but bite his dry lips and looked at Qin Mingzhu eagerly, “I’m sorry, I, I, I…”

“Why are you apologizing?” Qin Mingzhu came back to her senses and looked at the tense He Gu in confusion.

He Gu looked at Qin Mingzhu’s bright eyes and was deeply attracted. He looked even more stunned.

Qin Mingzhu could not help but laugh. She covered her mouth with her sleeve and laughed out loud. He Gu also scratched his head and laughed foolishly.

Under the moonlight, the two of them chatted happily and were very satisfied with each other.

He Cangming was also very satisfied. He saw He Gu and Qin Mingzhu chatting happily in the attic. They had finally solved one of their worries. Now, they could go and solve another one.

He Cangming and the elders looked at each other, nodded, and went up to the third floor of Flowing Cloud Pavilion together.

There was a powerful array formation between the second and third floors. It required He Cangming and an elder to work together to open it.

Once the array formation was opened, the appearance of the third floor was revealed. A long corridor was like a long black snake, connecting countless rooms. Every room had the same door, so it was impossible to distinguish them.

He Cangming casually pushed open the nearest door. The moment the exquisite carved wooden door was touched, a wave of spirit energy rippled on it.

The moment the door was opened, what greeted his eyes was a water prison that was completely different from the surrounding environment. The floor paved with obsidian emitted a chilling aura.

The ten pillars on both sides were carved with dragons and phoenixes, but they were all black in color. Not only did they not appear glorious and righteous, but they also made people feel a sense of darkness and oppression.

The lights on the tall ceiling were dim, their shadows extended really long. It looked very strange.

He Cangming led the way into the depths of the room. There was a hunchbacked figure whose hands were chained to the wall, making some sounds from time to time.

“Cough, cough cough cough, cough.”

The person coughed violently, pulling the chain, and making some splas.h.i.+ng sounds and the sound of water.

“How is this Flowing Cloud Pavilion? Didn’t you always want to come in? Now you are in the highest and most secret place of Flowing Cloud Pavilion.”

He Cangming said to He Zhao in the water prison with a cold smile, then sat down on the armchair next to him and looked at He Zhao in disdain.

No one would have thought that the He family would build the prison in the most prosperous place. Even the ordinary inner disciples of the He family thought that only the family head and elders could enter the third floor of the Flowing Cloud Pavilion, but it was actually a treasure storage.

“This place used a secret s.p.a.ce technique. If you didn’t open the array formation in advance, what you would see when you came in would only be an ordinary guest room. Oh, even a disciple like you wouldn’t have the chance to see the secret s.p.a.ce technique.”

Seeing that He Zhao was puzzled, He Cangming kindly explained. He had previously discovered that He Zhao had secretly come to the third floor of the Flowing Cloud Pavilion. At that time, he knew that He Zhao wouldn’t be an obedient dog.

“Cough, you, what do you want?” He Zhao asked weakly. He tried his best to stand up straight and maintain his dignity. However, the moment He Zhao came out of the Flowing Cloud Pavilion, he was beaten up and brought up here. That was because his legs had been broken. His knees were bent backward, and he had no strength to stand up straight at all.

Moreover, the water prison was much deeper than it looked. He did not touch the ground at all. He relied entirely on the iron chains in his hands to hang his entire body.

The water snakes in the water prison swam around He Zhao. Their dark red scales emitted a wicked and dangerous light. It clearly indicated that how strong their poison was. There were also some snakes that had already stuck to his body along his sleeves and collar, so he did not dare to act rashly.

“Do you think you have the right to talk to me now? He Zhao, no, Yu Zhao, you can only do as I say now, or else you won’t have a future.”

He Cangming played with the ring in his hand that symbolized the authority of the family head, looking at He Zhao with disdain.

“You still don’t want to kill me now, it’s just that, cough, cough, cough, cough, you want to know the information about the Mount G.o.d of Heaven and Jiangyun.”

He Zhao’s jade crown was broken, his hair was messy, and his face was bruised. He was in a really bad shape, but his tone was still arrogant.

“That Jiang Yun killed my son. I must take his life and use his head as a sacrifice for my son’s soul in heaven!” He Cangming slapped the armrest of the chair with a ferocious expression.

“Ha, I knew that I only have this little value to you now. Do you think I’m that stupid? Old man!” He Zhao spat out a mouthful of blood at He Cangming and said coldly.

“I’ll make you to beg me and tell me all the things you know. I’m afraid you don’t know what kind of punishment He family has, so I’ll let you have a look!”

After He Cangming finished speaking, he waved his left hand, and an elder behind him immediately came forward with a small box in his hand.

The people outside the Flowing Cloud Pavilion were talking and laughing loudly. Inside the Flowing Cloud Pavilion, He Zhao’s mournful screams were terrifying, but no one heard them.

Qin Mingzhu, who was chatting with He Gu, seemed to have sensed something. She looked up at a certain spot on the third floor of the pavilion.

“What’s wrong?” He Gu asked her.

“Nothing. Continue. I’m very interested in your mission.” Qin Mingzhu retracted her gaze and looked at He Gu with a smile. She said gently. He Gu’s face turned red from her smile. He then told her in detail about the interesting things he had done in the past.

Tonight, the He family was peaceful. Everyone except He Zhao got what they wanted.

By the time He Cangming and the elders left, it was almost dawn. Poisons, poisonous insects, whips, and waterboarding had all been used, but He Zhao was so stubborn that he didn’t say a word.

This was his last resort. He couldn’t say it. If he did, he would be dead for sure. However, it was impossible to drag it out for too long. He Cangming would definitely be unable to hold himself back and send people to the Mount G.o.d of Heaven.

“I, He Zhao, had been conceited for over a hundred years, I didn’t expect that I have to rely on the enemy’s intelligence to survive now.” He Zhao thought in a daze.

“No, I don’t want to die. I won’t die so easily. There must be a way to escape. There must be!” He Zhao forcefully pulled himself together and used the dim candlelight to observe the water prison.

However, he saw a cold soldering iron on the ground not far away. He Zhao’s gaze turned cold.

He Cangming had taken it personally and burned it red. It was fiercely imprinted on his heart with the word “Slave”.

“You have a lowly bloodline and was a despicable person. Don’t even think about those things that don’t belong to you. You are just a dog. You’re only fit to be a dog slave! This is your life!” He Cangming’s words stepped on He Zhao’s sore spot. He was so angry that his eyes turned red.
