“Senior sister apprentice, how are your these days?” Zhang Tie asked calmly as he watched Ma Aiyun.

“I’m... I’m sorry!” Ma Aiyun stammered as she dared not look straight into Zhang Tie’s eyes.

“It’s fine, never mind!” Zhang Tie said calmly as he didn’t blame Ma Aiyun at all. Zhang Tie knew that Ma Aiyun was also a victim. Ma Aiyun was so weak in front of the culprit that those people could easily take control of her even though she was much greater than those iron-lady housewives.

“They said... they said... after a few days, I would be able to see our kid...” Ma Aiyun’s eyes shone with an eager look.

Watching Ma Aiyun, Zhang Tie finally confirmed that she was controlled by an extremely advanced spiritual secret method. Among the secret methods of Bloody Soul Temple, only “Soul Seed” could carry out this effect. One could control people’s senses and consciousness with this secret method secretly and silently. After being affected by “Soul Seed”, people would mix aroma with stink, black with white and lose his mind with full of hallucinations. The one being controlled couldn’t even determine whether to live or die. This secret method was too overbearing. The key was that the one being controlled didn’t believe that her action and senses were manipulated by others; instead, she only felt that she did everything according to her own intention and decision.

Her obsession with her kid became Senior Sister Apprentice Ma’s Achilles Heel and the bed of the “Soul Seed” in her senses and consciousness.

No wonder Senior Sister Ma didn’t speak too much. Zhang Tie even thought that she was a bit bashful due to that one night stand between them. He realized that she was evidently under control spiritually in case of leaking too much information.

‘I’m at the fault due to carelessness. It’s none of her business.’

‘As the aphorism goes, one is not afraid of being stolen, but being remembered by the thief. I’ve borne in mind that person for over 10 years. Due to carelessness, I finally left a chance to him.’

“Senior sister apprentice, believe me, everything will be better...” Zhang Tie sighed with emotions as he comforted Ma Aiyun.

“If you want to be better, drink it first!” that silent dare-to-die fighter opened his mouth as he made a glass of spirit and passed it to Zhang Tie.

Zhang Tie instantly identified that that flagon in his hand was the same one in Wild Lake Building. Of course, the spirit had been drugged with “Soul Leave”.

Zhang Tie watched that dare-to-die fighter with a sneer as he asked, “What? Do you think that I would drink it again?”

“When I count three, if you don’t drink it, I will chop off one of her hands in front of you; when I count six, if you don’t, I will chop off the other hand of hers; when I count nine, if you don’t, I will chop off her feet; when I count fifteen, if you don’t, I will behead her...” that dare-to-die fighter said in a cold voice, “Be wise, I’m counting...one...”

Zhang Tie thought, ‘They took Ma Aiyun here to threaten me to drink the poisoned spirit. If Ma Aiyun was not here, although they could still force me to drink it, it would cost them a long time. No matter what, even if I have no battle strength, I could maintain my defensive strength. It’s not that easy for them to open my mouth.’

‘I would not be killed, but I would be in a deep coma. Why would they hurry to do that for?’

It was raining and winding outside in the deep night. After combining these aspects, Zhang Tie’s heart pounded, ‘Is the culprit coming? Or these people want to transfer me to another place...’

“Second...” the dare-to-die fighter’s voice was full of killing intent as he teleported the flagon into his portable space-teleportation equipment. He put the glass of spirit in front of Zhang Tie by one hand while holding a saber on the other hand, pressing the edge of the saber on Ma Aiyun’s shoulder.

Zhang Tie threw a glance at that fighter before taking the glass and bottoming it up.

Closely after that, Zhang Tie looked straight ahead silently as if he was frozen.

After putting away his saber, the dare-to-die fighter pinched Zhang Tie’s face to check whether he had swallowed the spirit or not. After discovering it was true, he slightly pushed Zhang Tie, causing the latter to fall down with eyes closed...

“Zhang Tie...” Ma Aiyun wanted to rush towards him; however, she was stopped.

“Don’t worry. He’s fine. He’s just having a sleep. Don’t you want to see your kid?” the dare-to-die fighter comforted her. After throwing the last glance at Zhang Tie, he took Ma Aiyun away from this underground mountain cave.

Not until the footsteps moved far away and the iron gate above the mountain cave was closed up again did Zhang Tie open his eyes.

Although the spirit appeared having fully entered Zhang Tie’s mouth, all of them had actually been teleported into Castle of Black Iron.

How could Zhang Tie fall into the same trap for the second time?

“Heller, you received it?”

“I’ve received it Castle Lord!”

“Can you fully separate the “Soul Leave” from the spirit?”

“Like a piece of cake!”

“Can you produce it?’

“Give me a bit time. I could even produce some variants!”

“Good!”

After having a short chat with Heller, Zhang Tie closed his eyes again.

Given the current situation, Zhang Tie was sure that his target was coming.

However, Zhang Tie still wondered why that culprit wanted him to be in a deep coma. ‘Isn’t he here talking about conditions with me? Perhaps, that person is too scared of me as he considered this case as the safest.’

Although Zhang Tie’s eyes were closed, how could the thin eyelids and flesh resist the power of his lotus flower eyes? At this moment, the eyelids were an absolutely transparent cover for him.

Lying on the cold ground, Zhang Tie just waited for his target calmly...
