Alchemy Emperor of the Divine Dao-Chapter 4665 Extorting a confession

"Yes," Ling Han replied without hesitation.

To him, Yan Yan was only a stranger, after all, what more when he was still acting as Zhang Hanjun. What Yan Yan saw and understood was not the real him at all.

Moreover, he wasn't here to pick up girls.

Thus, instead of giving her false hope, it would be better to deal with her quickly.

Yan Yan faltered upon hearing this. She hadn't expected that Ling Han would be so direct, and her face instantly became as white as a sheet.

"Wu!" She covered her face and left.

Ling Han didn't give chase. This was a good opportunity for him to sever his connection with Yan Yan. After all, he was going to sneak into the Pond of Life.

He stood up, planning to return to the Martial Hall.

Having won first place in the Martial Hall tournament this time, he would naturally be rewarded, and that wa he could enter the Little Pond of Life of White River City and cultivate inside for three days.

White River City had a Buddhist Tower, which could gather the power of will of all living beings, and with the conversion of a certain formation or Spirit Tool, this power of will would turn into incredibly pure energy fluid. If a cultivator cultivated in it, there would be many benefits.

Unfortunately, it was the Little Pond of Life.

Ling Han couldn't help but feel a little regretful. This Little Pond of Life definitely wouldn't be connected to the real Pond of Life. Otherwise, he would be able to absorb to his heart's content in one go, and directly "accelerate" the Seed of the Holy Flame, thereby becoming a Saint.

However, this was another chance to allow his cultivation level to soar in broad daylight.

Tomorrow morning, he would enter the Little Pond of Life to cultivate. After he came out, the newly established White River City's "team" would set off for Heavenly Prosperity City, an A-grade city to participate in the advancement battles.

"It's not good to break a woman's heart like this." A man's voice was heard from behind him, filled with vigor.

Ling Han turned around, only to see a middle-aged man in embroidered robes walking out from the darkness.

Master of Fortune Dragon City's Martial Hall, Zhu Tai.

Ling Han smiled faintly, "She's not suitable for me."

"If you don't try, how do you know she's not suitable?" Zhu Tai asked.

Yi, when did you become such a gossip?

"Why don't you try then, Lord Zhu?" Ling Han said with a smile.

"How could I possibly!" Zhu Tai laughed in spite of himself.

"If you don't try, how do you know it's not suitable?" Ling Han said.

These words were a retort.

Zhu Tai showed a hint of displeasure, and said, "Zhang Hanjun, have you forgotten yourself in your conceit? You actually dare to speak to me like this!"

Ling Han shook his head, "Lord Zhu has killing intent on him, so—"

Zhu Tai was surprised. 'You can even tell that?'

However, since he had been seen through, he no longer put on any pretences, and asked darkly, "Is the disappearance of Yangzhou related to you?"

"Why would Lord Zhu think so?" Ling Han asked.

"Hmph, at that time, the three of you entered the depths of the mountains together. Even in the final surveillance image, the three of you did not separate." Zhu Tai balefully said, "But in the end, only you walked out. How could it be that it would not be not suspicious?"

Ling Han shrugged and said, "If it's really as Lord Zhu has said, then shouldn't the investigation be conducted by the Martial Hall of White River City?"

"Humph, you're a Spirit Devouring Physique. How valuable is this!" Zhu Tai said through gritted teeth. Precisely because Ling Han was a rare talent, the investigation into Liu Jia's death was very sloppy. In any case, Zhu Tai was the biggest suspect, so they just had to put this person on the wanted list first.

"Where have you hidden Yangzhou!" he raised his voice and shouted loudly.

Ling Han smiled, "Does Lord Zhu want to use force?"

"That's right," Zhu Tai said coldly. "I will apprehend you, and under torture, you will definitely tell the truth!"

Ling Han shook his head, and said, "Since it's torture, can the answers extorted be used as evidence?"

"I only need to force out the whereabouts of Yangzhou, and find Yangzhou. When we ask him directly, the truth will naturally come out!" Zhu Tai said.

Zhu Tai gritted his teeth. If this matter really had nothing to do with Ling Han, then with how he had persecuted a prodigy, he would either have to roam the world from now onwards, or kill him to keep him from leaking the secret. He would just have to gamble and see if he would be able to get through it by luck.

Ling Han clapped his hands, "Your logic is accpetable, but firstly, what if I really have nothing to do with it? Then what does Lord Zhu plan to do? Kill me to keep the secret? Secondly, Lord Zhu, you are not considering the possibility, and that is whether you can defeat me or not?"

Zhu Tai gritted his teeth. If this matter really had nothing to do with Ling Han, then with how he had persecuted a prodigy, he would either have to roam the world from now onwards, or kill him to keep him from leaking the secret. He would just have to gamble and see if he would be able to get through it by luck.

However, for the sake of his son, he was willing to take this risk.

As for whether he could defeat Ling Han or not?

Haha, wasn't this the biggest joke in the world?

"Zhang Hanjun, do you really think that just because you're a Spirit Devouring Physique, you can look down on everyone?" He sneered, and said, "I'm a Core Formation Tier cultivator!"

Compared to the Foundation Building Tier, he had the advantage of a whole two major cultivation levels, and in the cultivation world, putting aside the fact that the gap of a major cultivation level would crushing enough, even the gap of a minor cultivation level would be extremely, extremely difficult to breach.

Ling Han crooked a finger at him, "Come!"

—To have some private words with him, Yan Yan deliberately chose a very secluded small forest, and this also created an absolutely good opportunity for Zhu Tai to make a move. Otherwise, he would definitely have to wait until Ling Han walked to some secluded place to make his move.

Zhu Tai was instantly enraged. He, a dignified Core Formation Tier cultivator, was actually provoked like this by a mere Foundation Building Tier cultivator?

Even a clay figurine would get angry, what more when he was not made of clay.

He didn't waste any more words, and he immediately lashed out with his palm. He was just about to subdue Ling Han and drag him to a more secluded location for interrogation.

He was sure that his son was definitely still alive. It was just that Ling Han had locked him up somewhere.

Ling Han raised his hand, and grabbed back at Zhu Tai's wrist.

"Where did you get the courage to—"

Zhu Tai had not even finished his words, when he realized that his wrist had already fallen into Ling Han's hand.

This was very easy and natural, as if he had taken the initiative to stretch out his hand for Ling Han to grasp.

He looked down, then raised his head to look at Ling Han, his face filled with surprise.

This was completely unacceptable.

"You father and son, why do you always think of using your superior strength to bully others?" Ling Han shook his head.

"Y-y-you, what cultivation level are you at?" Zhu Tai asked in a trembling voice. At this moment, he sensed an indescribable aura from Ling Han, causing him to shiver in fear.

This was an absolutely one-sided suppression.

"Me?" Ling Han pondered for a moment before saying, "That's hard to say."

Whatever cultivation level he was at, that was that. What did it mean that it was not easy to say?

Zhu Tai looked humiliated and furious. He was already in such a state, yet Ling Han was still toying with him.

Ling Han couldn't help but smile, and said, "I'm a fifteen-star Venerate. Have you ever heard of something like that?"

Of course, I know about Venerate Tier, but what the hell was a fifteen-star Venerate?

Venerate Tier only had one to nine stars!

The humiliated and furious expression on Zhu Tai's face became even more pronounced. 'As expected, you're still toying with me!'

Ling Han sighed, "Could it be that I have countered too many people verbally, so no one would believe me even if I told the truth now?"

"Sigh, when I go back, I will slap Old Black; it's all his fault for leading me astray!"

With a thought from Ling Han, boom, the Heavenly Dao Flames burned fiercely, immediately burning Zhu Tai into ashes, leaving nothing behind.

Then, he retracted all of his aura. He was no different from any other Ultimate Dao Foundation cultivator, and headed towards the Martial Hall.

He had to end this adventure as soon as possible, and advance into Saint Tier. Only then would he be able to truly compete with the king tiers of the younger generation.
