Su Jiangshan quickly turned around, glancing indifferently at Su Tu, who lay unconscious, spitting blood. His gaze then fell on Mu Sheng and Mu Wen, filled with undisguised scrutiny.
“What treasure are you hiding that could rebound Su Tu’s power back onto him?” he asked, his tone cold and urgent. As he spoke, he signaled the Su family’s hidden guards with a gesture.
With a whoosh, two figures knelt before Su Jiangshan. His expression, greedy and domineering, commanded, “Search them. Find what treasure they carry!”
The hidden guards, without a word, meticulously searched Mu Wen and Mu Sheng. They found nothing but a string of peach wood beads, as the brothers had been taken in their pajamas. Su Jiangshan examined the beads, feeling the faint true energy covering them, but shook his head, “It’s not this…”
“You two, hit them…”
Su Jiangshan instructed the secret guards to hit Mu Sheng and Mu Wen. Although the secret guards found this instruction a little strange, they still did according to the ancestor’s instructions.
The secret guards did not have any fancy moves. They directly raised their fists and punched the brothers’ chests. There was an overlapping cracking sound. The two secret guards spat out a mouthful of blood at the same time and were sent flying. The scene was very strange.
“Just as I thought,” Su Jiangshan said, his old eyes gleaming with mania. “The treasure is within them. If it’s not external, then it must be internal…
Internal?
Didn’t that mean… inside their body?
The crowd gasped, a sense of foreboding filling their minds. Su Jiangshan ordered ruthlessly, “Quick, whether it’s cutting them into pieces or burning them alive, I want the treasure in their bodies!”
When Mu Sheng and Mu Wen heard this, their hair stood on end. They cursed Su Jiangshan in their hearts for being a lunatic and an old pervert. He actually thought of such a cruel method. He was really inhumane.
Although the brothers were afraid, they did not show it. The Mu family would not yield to coercion.
Hearing the order, the hidden guards drew their swords, aiming for the brothers’ chests. The result was the same. Two more guards bled and collapsed, their injuries the most severe.
When Su Jiangshan saw this, he coveted such a treasure even more. He even personally took action. His hand contained dense true energy. He placed his hand on the brothers’ shoulders and sent streams of true energy into their bodies. He wanted to use this method to find out more about the treasures in their bodies.
However, the old man never expected that Han Shi would be hiding in the dark, watching them test Mu Sheng and Mu Wen. In the end, when he saw that the old man was channeling true energy into their bodies, Han Shi’s eyes lit up and he instantly disappeared. When he reappeared, he was already among the secret guards.
The secret guards acutely sensed the unfamiliar aura and were shocked. Before they could attack, Han Shi’s powerful true energy instantly killed all the secret guards on the spot.
Su Jiangshan’s heart skipped a beat. He had never seen such terrifying strength. With just a single move, he could injure all the hidden guards he had painstakingly trained. However, he had been in the capital for so long and did not know that such a terrifying person existed.
Just as he was about to retract all his true energy, Han Shi teleported in front of him and grinned at him. He tapped Su Jiangshan’s chest twice like lightning.
“Old man, since you’ve transferred your true qi out, there’s no need to take it back!”
