Ji Shi Yu Ben Zun

Chapter 153 Misgivings

Old Man Li sighed heavily, "But he did not heed my words, and that's why he let you go, you remnant."

"Now that you have returned, you are even more powerful than our Li family. With a single word from you, you could make our entire Li family collapse."

"We are no longer capable of causing you any harm. Rather than opposing you, it is better to kneel before you and beg for mercy."

"Perhaps this way, the innocent members of the Li family can escape this calamity."

Mu Feng's gaze was filled with icy coldness. "Old man, did you not understand my words?"

"I am asking what grievances you and our families have?"

"Back then, our family had so many people, who offended you that you wanted to leave none of our family alive."

Old Man Li hesitated for a moment and said directly, "If you spare the people of the Li family, I will tell you."

"Slap!"

The response he received was a slap from Mu Feng.

The slap sent Old Man Li stumbling to the ground.

His life was already nearing its end.

After receiving such a heavy blow, he could hardly bear it.

As he fell to the ground, his head felt dizzy.

Mu Feng's voice was icy cold, "You are not in a position to negotiate with me now. I need an answer for what happened back then."

"Otherwise, you don't even have the right to speak to me now."

"You were one of the participants in that matter, and you already had no way out."

"Li Changhe was the mastermind. You want to take all the blame onto yourself. Do you think I will let Li Changhe go?"

"When I came today, I specifically prepared a gift for him."

As his words fell, a man in black behind him immediately walked over carrying a bucket.

The bucket sloshed with some liquid.

A strong, pungent smell emanated from it.

Upon smelling the odor, Old Man Li's face turned extremely ugly. "Is that sulfuric acid?"

Mu Feng said with a half-smile, "I already said back then that as long as I didn't die, I would repay all those grievances a thousandfold."

"Now that I am back, it is time to settle the scores."

"When my family was destroyed, your Li family participated the most. Two-thirds of the people present were involved in what happened back then."

"It is only natural for me to kill you, and it is only natural for you to suffer the pain I endured back then."

"When you did that back then, you should have thought of the consequences now. Don't put on that act of having lost your parents; this is all your own doing."

Old Man Li's heart sank completely. He knew that Mu Feng would never let their Li family go. As for the others, he simply closed his eyes and said no more.

Mu Feng said nothing, but his gaze fell upon Xiao Qi.

Xiao Qi immediately understood and stomped the previous person to death with one foot, then walked towards Old Man Li with a smile.

"Old man, do you think you can escape just by staying silent?"

"We have plenty of time tonight to play with you slowly."

"Come on, let me show you what it means to truly wish you were dead. It's what our Young Master taught me. Today, you'll get a taste of it, and you'll experience the most painful sensation in the world."

After speaking, the silver needles in his hand were continuously inserted.

Old Man Li felt unbearable pain all over his body, a pain he had never imagined in his life.

He thought he could endure it, but in just a few seconds, he could no longer bear it and cried out in agony.

The pain that swept through his body seemed to bring his thoughts to a standstill.

The immense pain caused his entire body to convulse, and when it reached its limit, his heart stopped beating.

At this moment, a sense of relief washed over him.

He was glad that he was old and frail, and would not have to continue enduring this torment.

In the very next moment, the silver needle in Mu Feng's hand was directly inserted into his body.

"Your technique is still not good enough. His condition now is such that if you're not careful, he could die. Letting him die would be the greatest mercy. I never show mercy to my enemies; only revenge."

Mu Feng gently flicked the silver needle in his hand, and the vibration from the needle's tip brought Old Man Li back to life again.

Old Man Li opened his eyes and looked at Mu Feng in disbelief. "I have severe heart disease, and I was supposed to be dead. Why am I still alive?"

Mu Feng said indifferently, "As long as I don't want you to die, even the King of Hell cannot take your life."

"Today, I said I would make you suffer to the extreme, and I will never let you off easily."

"Now, I'll give you one last chance. Honestly tell me Li Changhe's location, and call him back, and I can give you a swift end."

"Otherwise, this pain will accompany you until your death, and you will die of old age, not from pain."

When Old Man Li thought of this pain, of enduring such torment, his heart completely broke.

That was his son, his only son. Naturally, he could not betray his child.

He gritted his teeth and persevered.

However, in less than a minute, he could no longer bear it. The intense pain made him let out a hoarse cry.

"Mu Feng, if you have the guts, just kill me. What's the use of torturing an old man like me?"

"Aren't you afraid that people will laugh at you for bullying the elderly if this gets out?"

Hearing this, Mu Feng's face revealed a cold smile. "Old man, when you dealt with the elders of my Mu family back then, did you show any mercy?"

"I watched you push my family elders into the abyss bit by bit. Now that it's happening to you, you think I'm bullying you?"

"I don't care about saving face. All I care about is washing away the blood feud of my family with blood."

The pain gradually consumed Old Man Li entirely. His expression became incomparably ferocious and twisted. At this moment, he could no longer endure it.

"My son is not at home. He already expected that you would come looking for him."

"And we had already discussed this. I will bear all the past hatred."

"Even by any means necessary, I will not call my son back, because when he left, he clearly told me that returning to the Li family would only lead to his complete demise, and not even an innocent person would be spared."

"Only by him escaping and hiding can you have some reservations and dare not to completely slaughter our Li family."

"If the Li family is gone, he will have no more concerns and will launch an all-out revenge against you. A Grandmaster level expert targeting you might not be a problem for you personally, but what about your friends and family?"

His words carried a threat.
