Chapter 148 Shadow Gate

Chapter 148 Shadow Gate

Zhang Yu refused to cooperate. Jiang Lingyin searched the space and found that the truth serum pills still didn't work, so she could only use the lie detector first.

Jiang Lingyin took out a lie detector, placed it in front of Zhang Yu, and said seriously, "Zhang Yu, you should know how powerful this lie detector is. If you tell even a single lie, don't blame us for being rude."

Ye Wenjing added: "Don't struggle in vain. Telling the truth is your only way out."

Zhang Yu looked at the polygraph and his expression became even uglier, but he still pretended to be calm: "Humph, what can this thing do to me?"

Jiang Lingyin sneered: "Then give it a try."

She activated the polygraph and began to ask Zhang Yu about the details of the conspiracy. At first, Zhang Yu tried to lie to get away with it, but the polygraph immediately issued a sharp alarm.

Jiang Lingyin's eyes were stern: "Zhang Yu, you are still not honest!"

Ye Wenjing also shouted angrily: "If you don't tell the truth, you will suffer!"

Under the threat of the polygraph, Zhang Yu finally began to tell the truth bit by bit.

Jiang Lingyin looked at Zhang Yu and said, "You are the Holy Envoy of the Fuhua Society who deceived the local dignitaries to participate in the Tiannu Festival, right?" Zhang Yu was about to deny it, but the polygraph sounded crazy. Zhang Yu was surprised and cursed, "So what if it is! They are stupid!"

Jiang Lingyin glared at him and said, "How could you be so cruel to use such means to achieve your goal!"

Ye Wenjing also said angrily: "Do you know how many people you have harmed?"

Zhang Yu snorted coldly: "So what? This world is a world where the strong prey on the weak."

Jiang Lingyin gritted her teeth and said, "You are a scum, it is simply unforgivable! Tell me, what is your plan?"

Zhang Yu turned his head away and said nothing more.

Ye Wenjing took a step forward and threatened: "If you don't tell me, don't even think about having a good life!"

Zhang Yu was silent for a moment, and finally spoke again: "Humph, it doesn't matter if I tell you. Our goal is to control this area and gain huge benefits."

Jiang Lingyin asked: "How to do it specifically?"

Zhang Yu continued, "Through the Heavenly Maiden Sacrifice, we can make those high-ranking officials obey our orders, and then gradually control their power."

After hearing this, Jiang Lingyin and Ye Wenjing became even more angry. They knew that they must stop the Fuhua Society's conspiracy as soon as possible.

The Fuhua Society used despicable means such as the Heavenly Maiden Festival to defraud a lot of money, and they used that money to privately manufacture weapons. I'm afraid they have great ambitions, and the mastermind is planning a rebellion.

Jiang Lingyin frowned and said solemnly: "This floating flower is so bold and reckless. We must uproot it as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."

Ye Wenjing nodded and clenched his fists: "I just don't know who is the mastermind behind this. How dare he be so bold."

Zhang Yu sneered at the side and said, "You guys think you can go against the Fuhua Society? You are simply overestimating your own abilities!"

Jiang Lingyin glared at him and said, "Humph, those who do too much evil will eventually perish. Your conspiracy will not succeed!"

Ye Wenjing thought for a moment and said, "We must first collect more evidence and make their crimes public so that the people can see their true colors."

Jiang Lingyin agreed: "Yes, we must follow the clues to find the mastermind and catch him in one fell swoop!"

The two men had firm eyes and hearts full of determination for justice. They vowed to completely crush the conspiracy of the Fuhua Society and bring peace to the people.

During the interrogation, Lu Tinglin suddenly arrived and found Ye Wenjing: "The people from Tianwen have found the Shadow Sect's lair." Zhang Yu became uneasy when he heard this. Jiang Lingyin looked at Zhang Yu: "You'd better tell the truth. We know more than you think."

Zhang Yu's face was pale and his eyes flickered, but he still kept his lips tightly closed and refused to speak.

Ye Wenjing snorted coldly: "Do you think the Shadow Gate can protect you? Don't dream!"

Jiang Lingyin continued, "Now that there is more and more evidence, your guilt will only become more and more serious. If you confess early, you may be able to buy yourself a chance of survival."

Zhang Yu's body trembled slightly and cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but he still persisted stubbornly.

Lu Tinglin said: "There is no need to waste words with him. Once we take down the Shadow Sect, he will naturally have nothing to say."

Jiang Lingyin nodded: "Okay, let's solve the big problem of Shadow Gate first."

Ye Wenjing glanced at Zhang Yu and said, "Keep an eye on him, don't let him run away."

Afterwards, the three of them prepared to set off for the Shadow Gate's lair, and a fierce battle was about to begin.

Ye Wenjing's men also brought Zhang Yu along. He said, "If you don't confess now, it won't be your turn to ask for credit later!"

Zhang Yu glared at his subordinate fiercely but remained silent.

The group traveled quickly and soon arrived outside the Shadow Gate's lair.

This is a stronghold hidden deep in the mountains and forests, surrounded by tight security.

Ye Wenjing observed the terrain and whispered, "Everyone, be careful and don't alert the enemy."

Jiang Lingyin nodded, and Lu Tinglin was ready to fight.

Just as they were about to sneak in, an alarm suddenly sounded. It turned out that someone had accidentally triggered a mechanism.

The people from the Shadow Gate swarmed out instantly, and a fierce battle began.

Ye Wenjing and the others immediately engaged in combat with the Shadow Sect's men. The flashes of swords and sabers crisscrossed, and the shouts of killing were deafening.

Ye Wenjing's swordsmanship was fierce, and enemies fell wherever he went. Jiang Lingyin was light and graceful, shuttling through the enemy formation like a flying swallow, and with a sharp palm wind, he repelled wave after wave of enemies. Lu Tinglin was extremely brave, wielding a spear with great momentum.

Zhang Yu, who was being taken away, looked even uglier. He knew very well that the Shadow Gate would probably not be able to withstand the attack of these people.

The battle became more and more intense, and Ye Wenjing's men did not retreat and fought desperately with the people from the Shadow Gate.

At this moment, Ye Wenjing spotted the leader of the Shadow Gate. He shouted and rushed towards the leader. The leader was not to be outdone and fought with his sword.

The two fought so hard that the people around them stopped what they were doing and watched this fierce duel.

Jiang Lingyin and Lu Tinglin took the opportunity to eliminate many enemies and gradually took control of the situation.

Finally, Ye Wenjing stabbed the leader's vitals with a sword, and the leader fell to the ground and died. When the people of the Shadow Gate saw that their leader was dead, they immediately became chaotic and fled in all directions.

Ye Wenjing and others successfully captured the Shadow Sect's lair, and Zhang Yu was completely deflated at this time, knowing that he had no chance of turning things around.

While everyone was cleaning up the battlefield, Ye Wenjing walked up to Zhang Yu and said coldly, "Now, do you have anything else to say?"

Zhang Yu hung his head and sighed, "Forget it, I admit defeat."

Jiang Lingyin quickly asked: "Tell me everything you know!"

Zhang Yu slowly raised his head and began to explain the various conspiracies of the Fuhua Society and the Shadow Sect. It turned out that they not only attempted to rebel, but also colluded with foreign forces in an attempt to overthrow the government.

After hearing this, Lu Tinglin said angrily: "These traitors are guilty of unforgivable crimes!"

Ye Wenjing pondered for a moment and said, "This matter must be reported to the court as soon as possible to avoid a disaster."

Jiang Lingyin nodded in agreement: "Yes, we need to continue investigating to see if there are any remnants."

Afterwards, they took Zhang Yu and the evidence they had obtained and rushed back to the capital without stopping. Along the way, everyone did not dare to slack off in the slightest.

Finally arriving in the capital, they reported the incident to the emperor. The emperor was furious and immediately ordered severe punishment for the relevant personnel and rewarded Ye Wenjing and others according to their merits.

The heroic deeds of Ye Wenjing and others spread throughout the capital, and the people praised them highly. But they knew that protecting the peace and tranquility of the country was a heavy responsibility and they could not relax for a moment.
