The pain in his entire body surged like a tide, gradually overwhelming him.
Brother Scorpion felt as if he were being subjected to a thousand cuts. The agony made him cry out with all his might, his body trembling uncontrollably, his muscles spasming violently.
Every second he endured felt like descending into the eighteenth level of hell.
"I'll talk!"
He roared the two words out in extreme pain.
Mu Feng smiled enigmatically and said, "This is just the beginning for this streamer. I told you earlier, I gave you a chance, and you didn't cherish it. So don't blame me."
"After the appetizer, I'll let you taste what true suffering is."
He wasn't prepared to listen to this guy's words right now.
Only after the person's spirit truly broke down would their words carry any credibility.
The fact that others feared him to such an extent that they would rather break their own bones than reveal his information proved that he was no ordinary person.
As long as their spirit wasn't pushed to its absolute limit, it was impossible for them to reveal everything.
The pain continued to rise in waves. Su Zhengqiang, standing nearby, watched the unfolding scene, his pupils contracting violently.
At this moment, he was secretly thankful that he was Su Nianxue's father.
Otherwise, Mu Feng would surely be using such methods against him now.
His gaze towards Mu Feng held more fear and reverence than before, completely devoid of its previous recklessness.
Mu Feng was also making an example of him, "killing the chicken to warn the monkeys." A faint smile still played on his lips as he inserted another silver needle.
Brother Scorpion felt the pain instantly intensify a hundredfold. At this moment, he only wished for death. Life itself was an unbearable torment, an endless agony that completely engulfed him.
His spirit had completely collapsed. His pupils were dilated, and the pain had reached its limit. He could die at any moment.
Mu Feng gently twitched the silver needle.
A portion of the pain slowly receded. Brother Scorpion's eyes finally regained a slight focus.
His gaze landed on Mu Feng, and he immediately began to beg tearfully, "Please, have mercy on me!"
"Just give me a quick death, kill me outright, and it's fine."
"Whatever you want to know, I'll tell you everything."
Mu Feng let out a cold laugh. "It seems your spirit hasn't fully broken yet. You still need to endure more of this pain."
"You already know what I want to ask. Do I still need to ask you?"
As he spoke, he retrieved his silver needle.
Brother Scorpion's pupils constricted sharply. He didn't think much at all, speaking purely on instinct. Seeing that needle now, he felt as if he were looking at the most terrifying thing in the world.
He had developed a psychological aversion to silver needles.
"The one who sent us is Zhang Tian."
"I don't know who he is specifically, but he gave me ten million to set up this trap. Once you were lured here, he could make his move."
"I don't know the specifics of what he plans to do; I was just a pawn he used to manipulate."
At this point, he was already weeping uncontrollably.
Mu Feng knew that this guy wasn't telling the whole truth, and his smile grew more mocking. "It seems you want to continue suffering. Since you desire it, I shall oblige."
"No!"
"Zhang Tian approached me first. The reason I fear him so much is because his methods are ruthless. You can ask my subordinates; one of my closest brothers had all his bones broken just for offending him."
"Moreover, his strength is terrifyingly immense. The number of us here is no match for him."
"He's even more formidable than you. When he hits people, he shows no mercy. Look at my injuries."
As he said this, he shakily lifted his shirt, revealing a prominent scar below his ribcage.
"This is from a knife slash he inflicted before. I thought I was almost dead; he had cut me open."
"Yet, he told me it was just skin deep and that it just needed to be stitched up."
"When I went to the hospital, they did stitch it up. But before my wounds had healed, he wanted me to set up this trap. I'm being coerced, please, consider that I had no choice in this matter and give me a quick end."
"I was truly forced into this. You gods are fighting, and I, a mere fish, am caught in the crossfire."
Saying this, he began to wail and cry uncontrollably.
He now regretted his past actions to the extreme. If he had known Mu Feng was this powerful, he wouldn't have listened to that person. He should have just run away.
Had he run, he wouldn't be suffering like this now, as if his soul were being torn apart and reassembled.
He never wanted to experience such pain again.
Mu Feng mused, "After they lured me here, what were they planning for you to do?"
He suspected that Zhang Tian might be a martial artist.
Otherwise, how could an ordinary person possess the strength to fight a hundred?
Brother Scorpion shook his head. "I truly don't know anything else. He didn't tell us the subsequent plans. We only knew that this guy intended to deal with you."
"All their plans revolved around you."
"However, I suspect he intends to target people close to you. You should just kill me now, and then you can go protect your loved ones and prevent them from making a move."
At this point, he just wanted a swift end; he didn't want to live another moment.
Mu Feng's eyes narrowed slightly. He had never heard of this Zhang Tian. Why would this person target him?
A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and he said faintly, "You're right about one thing."
"Using such a worthless pawn has its purpose."
"Now I'll let you go. You can go find him directly. If you can't find him, this matter won't end so easily."
"I've left a trace of my spiritual energy on you. He's a martial artist, so he can help you resolve it easily."
"If you can't find him, this spiritual energy will remain with you until your death, and the pain will accompany you throughout."
"While there's still time, you should hurry and find him. If you delay, you'll miss your chance."
Upon hearing this, Brother Scorpion dared not hesitate any longer. He scrambled to his feet and bolted out like a scared rabbit.
He didn't want to endure this torment for another second. Fortunately, the pain was now much less intense than before.
He only wanted to find Zhang Tian.
