Against Heaven's Will - Chapter 230

Chapter 230: Ming's Interrogation

"You will regret it," The City Leader warned coldly as he lost control over his body. "Dark Fate Sect is much stronger than you think." 

Xuefeng raised his eyebrows in doubt. "Yeah, I saw that just now. That barrier of yours was so weak I almost destroyed the whole city with one punch. I think I'm actually overestimating you all." 

The City Leader glared at Xuefeng, his bushy eyebrows giving him a laugh every time. They were inside the top of the tower after Xuefeng ripped the roof away. The place was filled with Fate Stones which powered the defensive array. 

"It seems like taking over the Hellhole has been quite profitable for you guys," Xuefeng commented as he waved with his hand and all Fate Stones were sucked into his ring. "Too bad, it's all mine now." 

Bang! Bang!

As he spoke, they were disturbed by the explosions coming from the City. 

"Can you hear it? They are my wives who are killing all Fate Holders and looting this place till there is nothing left. Do you think I'm scared of your Dark Fate Sect?" Xuefeng asked with a proud expression, treating the sounds of battles like music to his ears. 

He could hear all the communication happening between the girls and they were having a blast. Even Yiren and Lisa who were not that fond of battles were having fun. He trusted in their strength fully so he wasn't worried about them one bit. 

"Fuck you," the City Leader cursed as he tried to spit at him but only ended up spitting at his beard. "Fuck you and your bitches!" 

"Oyyy! And here I thought we will have a nice, cultured conversation. Why do you have to force my hand like that?" 

Crack!

The City Leader's fingers bent in different directions, breaking all of them at the same time. Surprisingly, he managed to stay silent as he swallowed the pain by gritting his teeth. 

"Is that all you have got? I have been through worse," the City Leader commented while smiling, blood oozing out of his teeth. "If you think you will get anything out of me through torture, then you are delusional." 

Xuefeng only shrugged. "That was meant to be a punishment for your curses. If I didn't need answers from you, I would straight up kill you." 

"Just do it then. You and I both know that I'm not gonna survive so no matter what you do to me, I will not talk. Do it bitch. I dare you," the City Leader challenged. "The reinforcements are already coming. They will avenge my death." 

"Oh, really? That's great. It will save me time finding them myself," Xuefeng nodded in approval while the City Leader laughed. 

"Hahaha, if you think you can win against the full force of the Dark Fate Sect then you are in for a surprise."

"Alright, I already heard that part. Now answer my question. Where does the Dark Fate Sect have its base?" Xuefeng asked as he tightened his lock. He was already regretting he chose the interrogation while everyone else was having fun. 

"I am soul bound. I can't talk about our Sect's secrets or I will die. You will kill me after anyway so even if I could, I wouldn't tell you anything," the City Leader called out fearlessly. "I can actually trigger it on my own but I hope I can see you die when our leader arrives. Enjoy the last minutes of your life." 

"Let me handle it from here," Ming called out as she appeared next to him and approached the man. "Physical pain won't work on him. We can only work on his soul."

Aaaaa! 

The City Leader screamed when Ming tapped on his forehead, his body trembling while blood drained from his face. Tears poured out of his eyes as Ming stared at him ruthlessly. 

"Done," Ming reported a moment later as the City Leader stopped screaming, looking like he lost focus in his eyes. "I ripped that curse apart. I wasn't a little bit gentle so his soul might be damaged. He should be able to talk and won't be able to kill himself." 

Oof… 

Xuefeng thought that handling matters around Souls were time consuming but it seemed like it was only the case when one wanted to create the least damage. He didn't want to think how much damage that caused.

"Can he even talk now?" Xuefeng wondered, causing Ming to turn around to the victim. 

Pa!

She slapped him across the face. "Wake up and talk. You can either die quickly or die in suffering. The choice is yours."

The City Leader looked up with his bloodshot eyes. "Bitch, go to— Aaaaaargh!!!" 

He couldn't finish the sentence as Ming tapped on his forehead, causing another series of pain. She had no mercy in her eyes as she tortured him till he didn't even have the strength left to lift his head up. 

Xuefeng made a mental note to leave the future interrogations to Ming. 

"Before you curse again, I will let you know that I can place a Forbidden Curse on your soul which will bring you pain forever. Even after you reincarnate, you will die in immense pain every time you are born. You will never find peace," Ming threatened coldly. "Now answer the question."

Xuefeng forced the man's head up but contrary to his expectations, the man was smiling. 

"At least I will die happy that I didn't help a bitch like you…" the City Leader muttered with his bloody mouth. 

"I warned you," Ming muttered as she extended her hand again.

"Mom! Don't kill him yet!" 

Just as Ming was about to act, they heard Sena cute yell as she came out on her own. Xuefeng quickly got a scare as he blocked Sena's view with his body. 

"Sena, get back inside," Ming ordered sternly. "This is not the sight you are allowed to watch." 

Sena pursed her lips. 

"But mom, I can help you."
