Chapter 214 – Come on, Prince, have some tea!
Proofreader & Editor: Lotas
This object is called the Fountain of Life.
The model it's based on is something from a game Li Changqing played in his previous life. In the game, when a player was critically injured, they could recover their health by approaching the Fountain of Life. This object was crafted by Li Changqing using materials from the Tree of Longevity.
The effect Li Changqing imbued it with is based on the properties of the Tree of Longevity; anyone near this treasure could restore the lifespan they've lost at any time.
However, Li Changqing still didn't know if it would work.
Because for him, at the moment, it was useless; the longevity fruit of the Tree of Longevity was only for ordinary people.
Was he an ordinary person?
After returning to Ziwu City, Li Changqing didn't rush to find Yin Fengqi because it was already late at night.
He would go when it was daylight.
But in the inspection mansion of Zhen Kingdom's Tushan City, the lights were still bright.
Li Hengsheng ordered the jailers to pry open the mouths of Hua Zheyu from the Hua family and Mu Jing from the Mu mansion, to gain control of the evidence from them, and then doom both families to a fate from which they could never recover.
However, after a whole night of effort, the two men confessed nothing.
Li Hengsheng had thought that Mu Jing, being a tough man, would withstand the torture, but what he didn't expect was that Hua Zheyu, despite his effeminate demeanor, also endured the cruel punishment!
Despite being whipped bloody by the jailers, Hua Zheyu still said nothing.
This outcome was unexpected for Li Hengsheng.
After two shifts of jailers, they were all exhausted, and since they were warriors with strong bodies, ordinary jailers simply couldn't pry their mouths open.
Even when Li Hengsheng had Lin Qizhu personally attend to them, Lin Qizhu didn't hold back, but they still refused to speak.
In the end, Lin Qizhu had to stop because Li Hengsheng and Lin Qizhu agreed they couldn't beat them to death.
"Brother, leave it to me!"
At this moment, Wu Santong took over the task.
Lin Qizhu looked at Wu Santong helplessly and said, "These two are incredibly stubborn. No matter how we beat them, they won't speak. Hua Zheyu looks weak, but he's surprisingly resilient."
"Don't worry, leave it to me." Wu Santong hadn't been at the inspection mansion all day and had only returned in the evening. After sleeping for a while, he woke up and arranged for some items to be brought into the prison cell.
The cell was eerily cold.
It was Wu Santong's first time entering.
He led people to the execution room downstairs and saw Hua Zheyu and Mu Jing hanging there, their bodies covered in scars, not just from whips but also from branding irons, looking very miserable.
Yet their gazes were incredibly firm.
"Warden Wu."
A jailer approached, looking exhausted.
"These two are really tough, they won't say anything no matter what we ask," the jailer complained.
