Chapter 13 Interrogation

The butler left for about the time it takes to burn an incense stick, then led a seemingly dissolute young man to the waterside pavilion.

Looking at the young man's listless appearance and constant yawning, it was clear that he had been resting before being called over.

Although it was still early, it was only about eight or nine in the morning.

However, as a cultivator, failing to rise with the crowing of the rooster was a sign of laziness.

"Esteemed sirs! This is my sixth son, Liu Qiantiao. If you have any questions, feel free to ask him. We will cooperate fully." Liu Suifeng's attitude was very humble, and although Ye Chuxiao and the others represented the Six Doors, his performance was a bit excessive.

Jin Sanniang scanned Liu Qiantiao a few times and said, "Let's cut to the chase. What is your background? Tell us the truth."

Liu Qiantiao sat on the bench, legs crossed, shaking his leg while glancing sideways at Jin Sanniang's exposed 'generosity.'

Although his outer appearance was quite good, his demeanor was too lewd and repulsive.

"My background? You might be scared out of your wits if I told you." Liu Qiantiao slapped the table, his voice suddenly louder.

"Do you know the Realm Lord? I was originally the youngest son of the Realm Lord of Xiya Realm, reincarnated and reborn. I have an important mission in your Daheng. Even if I explain it to you in detail... you wouldn't understand."

"In short, you must cooperate with me. Don't resist or refuse my requests. When my trials are over and I return to the Xiya Realm, regaining my identity as the Realm Lord's youngest son, I will give you unimaginable rewards."

Ye Chuxiao and the other four silently looked at Liu Qiantiao. Although their expressions didn't change much, their eyes lost their initial interest.

Zhao Sibai cracked his knuckles and said with a sinister smile, "It seems this friend from another world likes to joke around."

"Big Sister Jin! I'll take him aside to have a chat."

Jin Sanniang nodded slightly, then turned to Liu Suifeng and said, "Patriarch Liu... you wouldn't refuse, would you?"

Liu Suifeng hurriedly said, "Of course! Of course! As long as you don't beat him to death, I have no objections. He's not really my son anyway."

His words were blatant and lacked finesse.

Coupled with his greasy, plump appearance, it was impossible to associate him with the former number one beauty of Hedong.

Could it be that men really turn into pigs after forty?

"No wonder the Liu family was the first noble family to stand up and cooperate with the Six Doors on the 'temporary residence permit.' With such a transmigrator on their hands, they have no other interests to pursue, so they might as well sell favors and pledge allegiance to the Six Doors!" Cui Yu said softly.

Qiao Wuqi heard this and said, "Very likely. This Patriarch Liu looks like a shrewd businessman who knows how to make deals. When he encountered such a money-losing product, he figured out a way to sell him for a good price."

Although their voices were not loud, the small waterside pavilion was otherwise silent except for the sound of stringed instruments.

Of course, Liu Suifeng heard everything, but he endured the insult, his smile still gentle with a hint of flattery.

On the other side, Zhao Sibai dragged Liu Qiantiao to a small forest next to the waterside pavilion for an in-depth 'discussion.'

By the time Liu Qiantiao limped back, covering his face, he was much more honest.

"I come from the Da Yuan Dynasty. My real name is Liu Qiantiao. As for what my original world was called, I don't know. Realm Lord and Xiya Realm... I made it all up after hearing someone mention similar things on the Ship of Creation."

"In the Da Yuan Dynasty, I was a down-and-out minor noble. The reason I was qualified to transmigrate was that I was caught up in a storm and accidentally got the opportunity."

"The specialty of the Da Yuan Dynasty is 'magic crystals' that can temporarily animate inanimate objects, but I am not qualified to buy magic crystals. I need you to invest in me... I promise not to run away with the money. We can sign a contract, or you can plant Gu poison in me." Liu Qiantiao said everything without holding back, and this time his story seemed much more reliable.

Ye Chuxiao still felt that there was some falsehood in Liu Qiantiao's words.

Cui Yu was the first to ask, "As far as I know, it costs at least a thousand points of Destiny to customize a good identity for a transmigrator. Although I am not a transmigrator, I don't fully understand what a thousand points of Destiny means, but I imagine that the price of being able to choose an identity at will is definitely not small. Since you are just a down-and-out noble who luckily obtained the qualification, where did you get a thousand points of Destiny to squander?"

Liu Qiantiao said, "I didn't customize the identity. It was random... Maybe, I was just lucky!"

Jin Sanniang looked at Liu Suifeng and asked, "Patriarch Liu! Is he telling the truth?"

Liu Qiantiao didn't seem like he had any backbone.

No one believed that Liu Suifeng had not interrogated Liu Qiantiao before.

Ye Chuxiao and the others didn't believe it, but that didn't stop Liu Suifeng from lying.

So the middle-aged fatty, with a greasy face, said in a sincere tone, "Esteemed sirs, you misunderstand! Although this son is fake, my old wife really treats him like her own son. She's very good to him. How could I make things difficult for him?"

"Patriarch Liu's wife should be the Holy Maiden of the Tianye Sect, who was once famous in the Southeast!"

"She's not an ignorant and foolish woman who lacks knowledge, so how could she dote on such a slippery and treacherous person?" Cui Yu said, emphasizing the words "slippery and treacherous," clearly implying a double meaning.

Liu Suifeng pretended not to understand and continued to smile, "This person is now in the hands of you sirs! How you interrogate him is up to you. If you need my cooperation, I will definitely be there to help."

Jin Sanniang's eyes were cold as she stared at Liu Suifeng, then said, "Since that's the case, then we'll take this Liu Qiantiao away."

"He needs to register at the Six Doors in Shenjing first. After confirming that he has not committed any crimes in our Daheng, we will issue a temporary residence permit and send him back to Hedong."

At this moment, Liu Qiantiao suddenly seemed to be having a seizure and shouted, "I'm not going to Shenjing! I'm not going to Shenjing! You old thing! You fatso! You promised me you would cover for me."

"Are you trying to sell me out!"

"I even gave..."

"Shut up! You wretch!" Liu Suifeng slammed the table in anger, a fleeting hint of murderous intent in his eyes as he looked at Liu Qiantiao.

At the same time, he also seemed puzzled.

Ye Chuxiao and Qiao Wuqi quickly guarded Liu Qiantiao's left and right sides, ready to defend against any sudden changes from the Liu family.

There must be some other secret behind the Liu family's defection.

Although they didn't know what it was, or why Liu Qiantiao seemed to have mental problems, jumping back and forth without any logic.

But at this time, protecting Liu Qiantiao was the most important thing.

Boom!

Black light flashed, and Zhao Sibai had already taken out his double hammers, also donning his set of pitch-black heavy armor.

"Patriarch Liu! Are you perhaps planning to rebel?" Zhao Sibai asked in a cold tone.

"Lao Zhao! Don't talk nonsense!" Qiao Wuqi immediately reminded him.

Even a constable of the Six Doors, a government dog in the eyes of the people, could not casually accuse someone of 'rebellion.'
