Chapter 486 Someone From The Truth Department
Just as Jiang Lintian was defending himself from the Armor-Piercing Water Spear, Lu Yu rushed up and used his Flaming Claw to grab him.
Jiang Lintian didn’t even have time to react as he was still trying to block the water spear; Lu Yu was right before him.
Jiang Lintian didn’t have time to escape, and he could only hurriedly put his hands in front of his body, trying to block Lu Yu’s attack.
He underestimated Lu Yu’s Flaming Claw attack.
This claw attack skill was the one that Lu Yu used the most. At the same time, it was also the skill at which he was best at utilizing his Dragon God Breathing Technique to stack the effects.
At that moment, Lu Yu’s dragon claws were at a terrifyingly high temperature, melting everything they touched.
The claw slashed across, leaving a streak of dazzling flames in the air.
All the spectators held their breaths and focused their attention on the two of them.
Just a moment ago, they were still discussing who was stronger and who was weaker, coming to the same conclusion that the two of them were equally matched.
However, the gaps between them were exposed again after only a few moments. Even though Jiang Lintian’s strength had significantly increased, he was still no match for Lu Yu. This was obvious at a glance.
Whoosh!
Lu Yu’s claws came down, and his sharp claws were accompanied by extreme heat. In almost an instant, Lu Yu had cut off Jiang Lintian’s hands.
Plop…
Jiang Lintian’s hands fell to the ground, and there wasn’t even blood on them. The moment the wound was cut open, it was instantly cauterized by the high temperature of Lu Yu’s claws.
Jiang Lintian’s arms were the same. No blood spurted out as the high temperature instantly cauterized them.
Jiang Lintian stared at his broken limbs in fear, not daring to look up at Lu Yu.
“No… no… this is impossible. How could my hands be so easily chopped off!”
“Impossible! My hands can’t be so weak in defense!”
He quickly knelt on the ground and tried reattaching his hands to his broken limbs. However, it was impossible, as the high temperature had already destroyed their nerves. He couldn’t reattach it anymore.
He looked at the pair of hands that had fallen to the ground, and tears instantly flowed down his face.
He was an elite figure in the business world and the young master of a conglomerate. He had never dreamed of losing both arms at any moment in his life.
At that moment, the dark purple skin on his body was slowly fading away. At the same time, the characteristics of his mutated body were also slowly disappearing.
When Lu Yu saw this scene, he was surprised.
“Hey, you just drank the truth potion, improving your strength by so much. How is it that after the effects ended, you don’t seem to have any side effects?”
At that moment, Jiang Lintian was already in a state of despair, and it was difficult for him to answer Lu Yu’s question.
Lu Yu quickly grabbed his neck and lifted him up.
Jiang Lintian’s underlings, who were watching the battle, panicked and rushed toward Lu Yu.
Xu Yuan and the others also got anxious. They ran toward Lu Yu, wanting to protect him.
The two groups of people were facing head-to-head at that moment.
“Let go of our boss! If you kill him, you’re dead!”
“Let him go! If you want to live, let him go!” someone shouted.
“Are you crazy? The higher-ups of the Red Heart Chamber of Commerce won’t let you go!”
Jiang Lintian’s underlings ran over one after another, terrified of what would happen.
At that moment, Lu Yu suddenly roared in anger, “If anyone dares to take another step forward, I’ll strangle him to death!”
Lu Yu’s roar shook Jiang Lintian’s underlings so much that they didn’t dare to take another step forward.
Lu Yu stared at Jiang Lintian and asked, “Tell me, how are you fine after drinking the truth potion?”
“Let me go!”
Jiang Lintian maintained his last bit of consciousness and didn’t want to die. Even if he were crippled, he could still find a quiet corner with his family’s support to live the rest of his life in peace and happiness.
“Answer my question first!” With that, Lu Yu punched him in the face, breaking one of his teeth.
Feeling the pain, Jiang Lintian dropped his arrogant attitude and explained, “The reason I’m not affected is because of my talent. My body has been incredibly strong since I was born.”
“That’s why I can bear the burden of the truth potion. Also, the potion I’m drinking is the latest, special version from the Truth Department, so it doesn’t affect my body much.”
Lu Yu nodded understandingly. “Very well. If you want to live, you’d better answer my questions honestly.”
“Alright, go ahead. I’ll tell you.”
“Do you have connections with the Truth Department?”
Jiang Lintian nodded. “If you’re talking about their deal with our Chamber of Commerce, it’s true. After all, our potions are still selling well.”
“Secondly, if you ask me about my cooperation with the Truth Department here, I can only say that it’s just on the surface level.”
“We are in charge of capturing people and ferocious beasts, sending them to the Truth Department, and having them make various kinds of special potions.”
Lu Yu sneered, “As expected, you have used human blood to make potions!”
“Let me go. I won’t pursue this matter anymore; I’m already crippled.” Jiang Lintian begged.
Lu Yu didn’t plan to let him off so easily.
“Tell me, where is the headquarters of the Truth Department?”
Jiang Lintian was stunned by the question. “First of all, I can’t answer this question. I’ll die if I answer it! Secondly, it’s impossible for me to only know about that. All this time, they’ve been the ones who came to me.”
“To tell you the truth, even the Red Heart Chamber of Commerce president doesn’t know the Truth Department headquarters location. Don’t even think about it.”
Lu Yu grabbed his hair and asked seriously, “Do you have someone from the Truth Department here? Point it out to me!”
Jiang Lintian went silent and did not say anything.
Lu Yu continued to ask, “I have another question. How do you contact the outside world?” After all, there’s no signal here.”
Jiang Lintian still didn’t say anything, only lowering his head in silence.
“You never intended to let me go, right?” he asked slowly.
“Answer my question!”
Lu Yu gave him another punch in the face, causing his face to swell.
“Pfft.. you’re dead, you’re definitely dead!”
Jiang Lintian’s tone changed as if he had suddenly lost his will to live. He no longer cared to answer Lu Yu’s questions.
“You say I’m going to die? No, you’re the one who’s dead!”
“You’re too naive!”
“Evernight messenger, come out. Don’t hide anymore!”
Jiang Lintian shouted so loudly that everyone in the stronghold could hear him.
However, no one responded to his shouts.
Lu Yu stared at him and asked, “Who’s the Evernight messenger?”
“It’s a position in the Truth Department, in charge of passing on information.”
Jiang Lintian smirked and shouted again, “Quickly come out and kill this guy! If you run away, I’ll tell him everything I know!”
