Just as the signal was sent from the Earl's Mansion, quickly, in the Holy Capital, countless people were alarmed.

Soon, numerous magicians flew towards the Earl's Mansion.

In space, Li Xiaojun's figure was suspended.

Seeing this situation, he frowned.

Then, a wave of pressure pressed towards the incoming magicians.

"There is a private matter to be dealt with here, everyone retreat."

Feeling Li Xiaojun's powerful pressure, the magicians flying towards the Earl's Mansion in the sky fell down like dumplings.

At this moment, everyone was shocked.

Under Li Xiaojun's powerful pressure, no one dared to fly over casually anymore.

In the imperial palace.

Some people also noticed the commotion at the Earl's Mansion.

"Outrageous, daring to attack my imperial Earl's Mansion in broad daylight."

"Ho Qingshan, go and bring people to capture the madman who attacked the Earl's Mansion." In the imperial palace, a majestic voice sounded.

"Yes."

Soon, led by a sixth-level mage, a group of people quickly flew towards the Earl's Mansion.

Inside the Earl's Mansion.

Chen Zishan had already swiftly knocked out a group of guards whose magic had been sealed.

In less than two minutes, the Earl Lai Yao was blocked by Chen Zishan in a courtyard.

Upon realizing that he couldn't escape, Earl Lai Yao didn't appear panicked this time.

Instead, he calmly waited in the courtyard for Chen Zishan to arrive, maintaining the dignity befitting an imperial earl.

"Who are you? Why did you attack my Earl's Mansion?"

Earl Lai Yao looked at Chen Zishan and recalled when he had offended such a person.

In fact, the woman in front of him was not the one he feared the most.

The one he feared the most was the man in the sky.

"Earl Lai Yao, do you still remember the Black Tiger Mercenary Corps from twenty years ago?" Chen Zishan's tone was indifferent, her eyes filled with hatred as she looked at Earl Lai Yao.

"The Black Tiger Mercenary Corps? What Black Tiger Mercenary Corps?" Earl Lai Yao appeared very puzzled, but no one noticed that his pupils had just contracted.

"My father was a member of the Black Tiger Mercenary Corps. You had someone kill my parents. What deep grudge do our family and you have? Why did you do that?" Chen Zishan sternly questioned Earl Lai Yao.

Hearing Chen Zishan's words, Earl Lai Yao understood why this person had come to his door.

So it turned out that this woman had a connection with the Black Tiger Mercenary Corps, no wonder.

Twenty years ago, he had personally supported the Black Tiger Mercenary Corps, and later he had them do some dirty work for him, which included attacking and killing a viscount who was his rival.

In the end, to keep it a secret, he had his subordinates kill everyone in the Black Tiger Mercenary Corps.

Now, seeing Chen Zishan's words, Earl Lai Yao thought for a moment and then said, "Little girl, I think there must be a misunderstanding between us."

Of course, he would not admit that he had killed the Black Tiger Mercenary Corps and her parents.

So, he planned to buy time.

Someone who so openly attacked the imperial Earl's Mansion would definitely provoke the palace.

Otherwise, if he, as an imperial earl, were killed like this, it would be a fatal blow to the empire's prestige.

"Little girl, I think you have misunderstood. I didn't even know about the Black Tiger Mercenary Corps. I think you might have mistaken the person."

"You're talking nonsense! My parents told me with their own mouths that they did something for you and were going to be silenced. Then that night, my parents were killed by people you sent..." Chen Zishan became somewhat frantic.

She didn't expect this person in front of her to be so shameless, actually denying what he had done back then.

"Little girl, you have misunderstood. I had cooperated with many mercenary corps back then, I don't even remember the names of many mercenary corps."

"The Black Tiger Mercenary Corps you mentioned..."

Just as Earl Lai Yao continued to try to argue cunningly.

A voice from the sky interrupted his words.

"Zishan, don't waste time talking to him, just kill him." Li Xiaojun said to Chen Zishan.

Upon hearing Li Xiaojun's words, Chen Zishan replied, "Master, I want to know why my parents died back then."

Upon hearing this, Li Xiaojun calmly said, "He probably won't admit it if you ask him like that. Let me help you."

After Li Xiaojun finished speaking, he waved his hand and quickly cast a spell into the body of Count Li Yao.

In the next moment...

"Ah~ Ah..."

A heart-wrenching scream resounded.

Count Li Yao's body was covered in countless blood beads, which quickly stained his entire body red, like sweat.

In less than a moment, he turned into a bloodied figure.

"Ah~ Kill me, kill me~"

It was evident that this was a kind of unbearable pain.

"I~ I'll... let me go..."

Li Xiaojun waved his hand, and the pain in Count Li Yao's body disappeared.

"Speak," he said calmly.

In fact, Li Xiaojun had simpler methods to find out why Count Li Yao killed Chen Zishan's parents.

For example, directly searching his soul or using Primordial Spirit to control his mind and make him reveal the secret.

However, Li Xiaojun chose the most brutal method, which was to extract a confession through torture.

Feeling the pain disappear, Count Li Yao gasped for breath, his eyes filled with fear as he looked at Chen Zishan and Li Xiaojun.

"Hurry up and speak, don't dawdle. Do you want to continue experiencing extreme pain?" Li Xiaojun's voice sounded faintly.

"I'll speak, I'll speak, it's because..."

Next, Count Li Yao revealed the reasons for killing Chen Zishan's parents.

"You're not being honest."

However, right after Count Li Yao stated the reasons, Li Xiaojun waved his hand again.

In the next moment...

Count Li Yao began rolling on the ground.

This time, Li Xiaojun also sealed his mouth, preventing him from making any screams.

A few minutes later, Li Xiaojun waved his hand, finally releasing the spell on Count Li Yao.

Feeling the pain disappear, Count Li Yao collapsed on the ground, gasping heavily.

"Speak, this time I want to hear the truth," Li Xiaojun calmly inquired.

"It was me. I had the members of the Black Tiger Mercenary Group kill Viscount Roland, and then I had my subordinates kill the members of the Black Tiger Mercenary Group to silence them..."

Upon hearing this, Li Xiaojun turned to Chen Zishan. "You heard it, take action."

"Alright." Chen Zishan nodded, then took out his flying sword, preparing to kill Count Li Yao.

"Who are you, daring to commit murder in the Holy Capital..."

At this moment, a stern shout resounded.

Then, several streaks of light quickly flew towards the direction of the Count's mansion.

Seeing this situation, Chen Zishan's face turned pale.

In the next moment, he quickly made a move.

Pfft!

The flying sword severed Count Li Yao's head.

"Master, let's go quickly." Chen Zishan anxiously said to Li Xiaojun.

"No rush." Li Xiaojun casually waved his hand, and the severed head that Chen Zishan had cut off flew into Li Xiaojun's hand!

Soul-searching!

Soon, Li Xiaojun found the memories of Count Li Yao's involvement in silencing the Black Tiger Mercenary Group.

From Count Li Yao's memories, Li Xiaojun saw who had laid hands on the Black Tiger Mercenary Group.

In the next moment, his divine sense spread out.

Ten seconds later, Li Xiaojun found all the people who were involved in that incident in the Holy Capital.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Qi flew in all directions, reaching many places in the Holy Capital in the blink of an eye.
