Chapter 133 - Interrogation
Howl!
Soon, three other howls echoed throughout the city.
The leader’s expression changed.
“Why are there only five of us left? Were we really ambushed? Or are they just too busy to respond?”
But he knew that it was impossible that his subordinates wouldn’t respond to him.
So there was only one other possibility.
“Tell me. What did you see?”
“Leader, I just saw a pool of blood on the ground. It seems to have come from one of us.”
“Oh no. Run!”
The leader’s expression changed again as he flew out of the city.
Elsewhere in the city, Li Mu overheard their conversation and a smile appeared on his face.
It was too late for them to run now.
He sent out his divine consciousness, which landed on the four howling bats.
Li Mu immediately rushed towards the nearest bat.
Just then, the other three bats noticed that something was wrong.
Why would their leader suddenly call out if nothing was wrong? They immediately stopped absorbing the humans nearby and flew away.
Whoosh!
The Phoenix Blood Sword flew across as thunder and lightning boomed in the sky.
In an instant, the three figures in the city dissolved into puddles of blood.
The other two managed to fly out of the city.
“Those two bats are at the Virtual Realm stage!”
Li Mu chased after them.
Now, he was even more confused. Why had these bats appeared in the West Continent?
Could they have been resurrected from the remains left behind after the ancient war?
Or were there other reasons?
Whoosh!
Li Mu transformed into thunder and lightning and appeared in front of a bat.
The bat was taken aback to see a blue figure appear in front of them.
A human figure had suddenly appeared in front of him in such a deserted area.
Oh no!
This was an ambush!
He turned around and ran away.
“Do you think you can escape?”
Li Mu appeared in front of him again.
With a wave of his hand, a cage made out of thunder and lightning surrounded and trapped the bat.
The bat knew he was in trouble.
There was no escape.
“Oh dear!”
He immediately burst into tears.
Why?
Why had he come to this part of the world?
Was his life going to be over just like that?
He couldn’t accept it!
How could there be such a master among the human beings in this part of the world?
Didn’t they say that there were no masters in the desert?
The guides had deceived them.
Damn it.
“Tell me. Where did you come from? Why did you appear in this desert?”
“Who are you? And why did you appear in this desert?” The bat wasn’t afraid of Li Mu and asked him arrogantly in return.
He didn’t think Li Mu was a match for him at all.
He was also very puzzled at how there was a master here.
“Interesting. You’re pretty intelligent! You know how to answer a question with a question. Is this how you treat someone more powerful than you?”
Li Mu focused his thoughts and the cage shrank. The thunder and lightning closed in on the black bat.
“You humans. You weak humans. How dare you bully your masters.”
Inside the cage of thunder and lightning, the bat roared loudly.
“Are you our masters? We’re the weak humans?”
The sword light flashed and one of the bat’s claws was chopped off.
“Ah! Damned humans! Damned prey! How dare you attack us? Our Master will avenge us!” The bat cursed loudly.
Li Mu’s face turned dark.
The attitude that this group of bats had towards humans was atrocious.
They thought of humans as prey!
They thought that humans were at the bottom of the food chain.
Where on earth had they come from?
“Answer me!”
Li Mu swung his sword and cut off the bat’s other arm.
“Damned human!” The bat continued to curse at him.
Li Mu turned away and flew towards the other bat.
If one of them didn’t want to talk, he’d simply ask the other one.
He wasn’t in a hurry!
He could take his time to interrogate the other one.
There would always be one of them who would start talking.
Thousands of miles away…
Inside a gloomy cave at the intersection between Zhongzhou and the West Continent, the leader of the demons hung upside down with the other bats at the bottom of the cave, shivering.
How could they have met such a master?
Damned human.
He shouldn’t be able to find them if they hid here!
This was such a deep cave.
Apart from the bats, who would enter such a deep cave?
They would wait here!
After ten years, that damn human would leave, and they could go out again.
Fortunately, he had reacted quickly and escaped first!
How lucky!
Thank the heavens!
After they left this place, they could absorb more humans and grow stronger.
Thinking of this, the leader laughed.
“Haha!”
Just then, a bright and clear voice sounded in the cave.
“Why are you laughing!”
The leader looked up. A blue figure appeared in front of him.
Li Mu immediately threw the leader into another cage made of thunder and lightning.
Then, he dragged the two cages out into the desert.
“Tell me where you came from,” Li Mu said.
The cage sparked with lightning as he spoke.
“You’re just a weak human. How dare you attack our Bat Clan!”
He was so angry!
He never thought that he would be caught by his prey.
How embarrassing.
He stared at Li Mu, his eyes full of hatred.
Damn it!
“The Bat Clan? How interesting!”
Li Mu stroked his chin and continued, “But I don’t like your rude attitude.”
As soon as he spoke, the cage started to shine brightly.
Sizzle!
Then, a smell of burnt meat filled the air.
The leader gritted his teeth and said, “Human, do you know what the consequences of attacking our Bat Clan are?”
How dare these humans attack them?
“I still don’t like your attitude! Who do you think you are!”
Li Mu swung his sword and cut off the leader’s arm.
“Human, you must be looking to die!”
Swoosh!
Both his ears fell to the ground.
“It’s so disgusting that you have hair on your ears!”
After that, Li Mu’s anger still wasn’t appeased, so he used thunder and lightning to strike the leader.
Sizzle!
Li Mu didn’t stop until the leader had fainted.
“Tell me. Where are you from?”
“Human, if you don’t let us go, our Master will destroy you!”
“Master? Who the hell is that?” Li Mu asked in confusion.
“How dare you talk about our Master like that… Ah!”
Li Mu swung his sword and chopped off the foot of the bat, then struck it with thunder and lightning.
After a while, the bat passed out from Li Mu’s torture.
“I never thought I would become Pikachu one day. Pika, Pika… Pikachu!”
That’s alright, Li Mu wasn’t in a rush.
Sizzle!
Li Mu shocked the two of them awake again.
“Human…”
Swoosh!
The sword light flashed and the bat shut up immediately.
A few days later, the two bats in the cage of thunder and lightning had no other limbs left.
“Just kill us if you are powerful enough.”
“Don’t even think about resurrecting from your limbs. l burned all of them. I know you have the ability to be resurrected from your limbs. That’s why I brought you to this desert.”
Li Mu stared at the two bats.
Did he know what they were thinking?
“You…”
“I’m not in a hurry. All I have is time!”
After half a month, only the heads of the two bats remained.
“Since your Master sent you here, let’s talk about your Master!”
“No way!” The two of them cried.
“What kind of shit Master is this? He sent you here to die.”
“Master wants to take revenge!”
“He’ll definitely won’t care to take revenge for his subordinates.”
Li Mu looked at their expressions and thought for a moment.
Revenge?
It must be that demon he had destroyed!
Seeing that the two bats remained silent, Li Mu knew that he was right..
There must be a story behind this!
Then, he said, “He doesn’t care about the two of you. If you die here, he would be very happy. The moment his family members died, he immediately sent you here to die just to carry out his revenge.”
“If you hadn’t killed the Fifth Prince, he wouldn’t be so angry!”
“So he asked you to throw away your lives just for the sake of the Fifth Prince?” Li Mu asked them back.
Fifth Prince?
It must be the Master’s fifth son.
Sure enough, this form of interrogation proved to be useful.
