Chapter 186: The Power Of Life And Death Talisman
Chapter 186: The Power Of Life And Death Talisman"Is this yours?" asked Li Xiaofei as he took out the crystal pendant and let it swing.
"This thing..." Brother Dragon was about to say something but found the glittering object mesmerizing.
He was especially entranced by the diamond-cut facets, which sparkled with a strange and captivating light. Brother Dragon couldn’t help but want to keep looking at it after his first glance. By the time he took a second glance, he was completely enraptured.
"Brother Dragon, the goods you asked me to bring have arrived," Li Xiaofei said. "Let's go inside and talk about it, and have your men guard the entrance."
"Alright," Brother Dragon replied and turned to walk inside.
The other guards found the scene somewhat strange. But they feared Brother Dragon's authority and didn't dare question it.
Li Xiaofei followed him inside. Once he was inside, Li Xiaofei discreetly poisoned all ten water storage barrels. Soon, the two of them came back out. Li Xiaofei turned and walked away confidently.
Brother Dragon stood at the entrance, seemingly deep in thought, maintaining his silence. The subordinates nearby still didn't dare to ask questions.
After completing his tasks, Li Xiaofei seemingly wandered aimlessly within the Dragon Claw Gang headquarters, but in reality, he was meticulously
He was terrified. Despite being at the first stage of the Limit Breaking Realm, he was as helpless as a chick in the face of this intruder. Fear and pleading filled his eyes.
Li Xiaofei held Wei Kun up with his right hand and made a grabbing motion with his left. The tea on the table was partially drawn into his palm, transforming into ice crystals as he reversed the flow of starforce qi. It was the Life and Death Talisman! The most terrifying control-type concealed weapon appeared in reality.
Hiss.
He injected the ice crystal into Wei Kun's neck. An indescribable, excruciating pain instantly erupted all over his body. This Hall Master of the Dragon Claw Gang, known for his toughness and brutality, began convulsing violently. Beads of sweat that were as large as beans formed on his forehead, temples, and the back of his neck.
Soon, his entire body was drenched. His face contorted into a grotesque mask of agony. Li Xiaofei's grip on his neck was so tight that Wei Kun couldn't make a sound. This cycle repeated three times. Wei Kun found himself in a state of limbo, unable to live or die. That was the power of the Life and Death Talisman.
While the mental manipulation technique only provided temporary control over a person's consciousness, leaving the controlled individual in a dazed state, it was limited when it came to extracting detailed information.
At that moment, Li Xiaofei stopped and said, "I ask, you answer. I’ll kill you if you shout for help. Understand?"
Wei Kun was completely broken as he frantically nodded in agreement. Li Xiaofei then released his grip and Wei Kun fell to the ground with a thud, gasping for air like a prisoner about to be hanged. Gradually, some color returned to his ashen face.
"Where are the people you kidnapped ten days ago, including the little girl? Where are they being held?" Li Xiaofei asked.
Wei Kun did not dare hesitate and quickly replied, "They're on the seventh floor, guarded personally by the gang leader's four trusted confidants, the Four Enforcers."
"Take me there," Li Xiaofei said, delighted. "Can you access the seventh floor with your status?"
Wei Kun replied, "I can, but..."
"Hmm?" Li Xiaofei's gaze turned icy.
A terrified Wei Kun hastily explained, "Hero, I'm thinking of your safety. The seventh floor is a dragon's lair, it's certain death. Earlier today, a female officer stormed in with some people and almost caused a fight. Security is even tighter now..."
"Female officer?" Li Xiaofei was taken aback, realizing something. He asked, "What was her name?"
"Her surname is Su, and she's the new squad captain at the nearby police station. She's been watching us closely. Six days ago, she even detained one of our Incense Masters, Jin Yi, on suspicion of murder. He's still not released," Wei Kun answered promptly.
He was truly terrified of the excruciating pain caused by the Life and Death Talisman. He had never imagined there could be a punishment more terrifying than electric torture.
Li Xiaofei listened and understood. Su Yuke had caught him red-handed that day at Kong Yan's house, but Li Xiaofei had managed to escape in the ensuing conflict. The female officer must have investigated Kong Yan's death and traced it back to the Dragon Claw Gang. So today, she brought people to search the place. But Su Yuke hadn't found Li Jie and the others but had instead alerted the gang.
"Take me to the seventh floor." Li Xiaofei commanded.
Wei Kun's face showed a struggle and said, "Hero, it's really dangerous."
Li Xiaofei replied, "That's not your concern. Just lead the way. But I’ll warn you, the Life and Death Talisman in your body will act up every week. If you don’t have my antidote, you'll endure this torment where you can't live or die forever. So, don't try any tricks, or you'll regret it."
With no other choice, Wei Kun led the way. The journey to the seventh floor went smoothly. After all, most people wouldn't dare to question a Hall Master of the Dragon Claw Gang.
However, as soon as they stepped out of the elevator, something unexpected happened.
