The disguised man, hearing Mu Feng's question, couldn't stop his tears from falling. His eyes were filled with regret.
With a choked voice, he said, "Those above gave us two answers, telling me that your strength should be around the Grandmaster realm, and I've been at this realm for almost five years."
"I just felt that at your age, you absolutely couldn't possess greater strength than me. Moreover, several of our companions are very skilled in using poison."
"So, I overconfidently set up this trap, wanting to capture you directly after you were poisoned."
"But I never expected you..."
He was truly crying, tears and snot streaming down his face.
At this moment, only regret filled his heart.
He flipped over and knelt on the ground, kowtowing to Mu Feng. In just a few attempts, his forehead was bruised and swollen.
"Please, I've told you everything I know. Give me a quick end!" His eyes were filled with pleading.
Mu Feng smiled faintly and said, "Have you really told me everything?"
"Perhaps you've forgotten about the Alliance?"
"Since you know so much, you should know where the other members are."
"I want to follow this lead and ferret out all of you."
A moment of hesitation appeared in the disguised man's eyes, but he quickly suppressed it. Bitterness flickered in his gaze.
"I am indeed a member of the Alliance, but the information I have is very limited."
"And most of those people have already been eliminated by you. The only news I learned was about Li Dao Ren's lineage, but you've already mentioned Li Dao Ren. Going with you now means becoming your subordinate ghost."
Mu Feng frowned as he listened to the disguised man reveal all the people related to Li Dao Ren.
"The information you've provided is worthless drivel. Since you've already guessed, Li Dao Ren is already a soul under my blade. Talking about his subordinates is like spewing nonsense."
"His people are already dead. Are you deliberately beating around the bush by telling me about him now?"
The disguised man shook his head like a rattle drum.
His eyes were filled with fear.
"No, I really don't dare to lie to you anymore. If I speak a single false word, may I be struck by lightning and die a horrible death."
"Although I am known as the Disguiser, I am now honestly confessing, so there are some..."
"Give me one more chance to die. I really don't want to live anymore, nor do I want to endure that kind of painful baptism."
A faint smile appeared on Mu Feng's face. "Your words might hold some truth, but I prefer to believe myself."
"I've already given you the outcome."
"But you haven't given me a satisfactory answer, and before this, you even tried to trick me and attack me lethally."
"If I simply give you a quick death, I'll feel unfulfilled, which is not beneficial for my cultivation. So, you should prepare to silently endure that pain!"
After he finished speaking, he once again inserted the silver needle into his hand.
The disguised man's eyes widened, and his gaze was filled with extreme anger and madness.
"Didn't you say you would give me a quick end?"
"You went back on your word, finding an excuse to kill me!"
"You will die a horrible death in the future. Even if I kill you, my Alliance leader will have you torn to pieces."
Mu Feng completely ignored his frenzied words and angry curses.
Mu Feng turned and walked out of the small inn.
He lit a cigarette and looked up at the night sky.
"The Alliance!"
"I believe we will meet again before long."
"I just wonder what kind of masters you will send next time. Don't disappoint me."
His current strength had long since reached a terrifying level.
And he rarely revealed his true strength to outsiders.
Even his master, that old man, didn't know his specific strength.
Mu Feng tossed the cigarette butt on the ground and stepped on it. He looked at the car parked not far away. "The danger here has been completely resolved. You can get out."
There was no movement from the car. Mu Feng smiled faintly. "If you don't want to get out, I'll be leaving. If the Alliance members come looking for you again, I won't intervene to help you."
The car door finally opened.
A woman, looking to be around forty years old, stepped out. Her face was pale, but it couldn't hide her dignified and noble aura.
Even with panic in her eyes, she didn't show much fear on her face.
"I'm sorry, I didn't intend to hide. Those people were too terrifying, they were simply not human."
Mu Feng smiled slightly. "No need to apologize to me. I'm only here to save you for Jiao Jiao's sake. Du Chao should be in the car too, right?"
"He's in the back seat, but he's already received your harshest punishment. He can't pose any danger to you now. Can you please spare his life and stop attacking him?"
"The Du family is almost finished. The remaining people are unable to restore the Du family's former glory."
"And now, only we, a mother and child, are left. Perhaps before long, even we will disappear. We don't pose any danger to anyone. Give us a way out!"
The woman was Du Jiao Jiao's mother.
Mu Feng also understood the meaning behind her words. "What kind of way out do you want? I never said I would kill you."
"Even if you are a member of the Alliance, you are just a nobody among them."
"You have no value to me. Perhaps you have some limited use to them, but that's all. Next time someone comes, they probably won't use you anymore."
The woman's pupils suddenly constricted. "Can you please help us, help our Xiao Chao return to normal?"
"He now knows how wrong his actions were. Please, for Jiao Jiao's sake, give him a chance."
"I promise I will never cause you any more trouble. After he recovers, I will have him sell all the Du family's assets and then flee far away."
"From then on, we will never return, nor will we cause you any more trouble."
Mu Feng smiled faintly. "If you wish to leave, no one will stop you. Even you can sell off those assets. As for curing Du Chao?"
