Chapter 990: Ancient Heaven-defying Skill

Hearing the crowd’s guesses about the contents of the wooden box, An Mingji raised his chin slightly, "Open it and take a look."

The subordinate immediately opened the wooden box in front of them, executing the motion with great skill and fluidity.

However, the opened box did not contain weapons as everyone thought, but rather exquisite blue-and-white porcelain bottles, some ancient paintings and calligraphy, and various meticulously crafted colorful objects.

These items were clearly rare and precious artifacts of Hua Country.

Upon seeing these artifacts, Gu Jin’s face turned cold.

At that moment, there was nothing she didn’t understand.

Gu Dehao’s task was in Kunlun, while people from Short Country were carrying a large batch of artifacts belonging to Hua Country.

The people from Short Country were obviously stealing Hua Country’s treasures.

Previously, she suspected her father’s disappearance was related to people from Short Country, and now it was confirmed.

Gu Jin emitted a chilling anger all over, and the subordinates of the Darwin Family could feel the Young Madam’s fury, even layers of fabric couldn’t protect against her icy wrath.

Everyone took a glance at the almost mesmerizingly handsome Young Master and saw his face dark and his presence sharp and stern, leading them to bow their heads silently.

The Young Master’s appearance clearly showed that he was in great anger.

Gu Jin’s face was gloomy, and she turned to walk towards the direction where Allen and others were located.

"A Jin!"

An Mingji stared at the artifacts on the ground, his peach blossom eyes half-closed, and when he saw Gu Jin leaving, he quickly turned and followed her.

The methods of Allen and his team, Short Country people had experienced.

It was truly a state where they couldn’t live nor die.

The people from Short Country were desperate, in unbearable pain, wishing they could just die.

Yet their mouths, even when subjected to such extreme torture, remained tightly shut.

Gu Jin and An Mingji arrived as Allen and others were still interrogating.

Seeing them approach, he handed over the Short Country people to his subordinates and quickly walked over.

Gu Jin asked, "Did you find out anything?"

Allen looked distressed, shaking his head, "Their mouths are very tight, as if they are ready to die."

An Mingji mocked ambiguously, "They have some backbone!"

"Let me try!"

Gu Jin’s expression was grim, her voice seemed to be filled with icy shards.

She strode towards the leader from Short Country, who even when subjected to torture and covered in blood, still had eyes as fierce as a beast.

If she released him from his restraints, he would undoubtedly charge at them, attacking everyone like a mad dog.

Gu Jin stood three steps away from him, her voice indifferent, "Tell me, where are the people you confronted?"

"Baka!"

The opponent cursed, refusing to answer.

Gu Jin sneered, her face mocking.

She stepped forward, kicking him to the ground.

This kick was merciless, causing the Short Country man to spit blood.

The dry yellow sand of Kunlun swiftly absorbed the blood like a stream.

The man from Short Country coughed violently, trying to support his body to get up.

Gu Jin’s foot stomped harshly on his face.

Her voice was icy cold, "If you don’t speak, I have ways to find out!"

With those words, Gu Jin closed her eyes.

Using her foot pressed against the man’s face as a conduit, she probed into the memory of the person beneath her foot.

Even though the Ancient Heaven-defying Skill relied on fate, she couldn’t necessarily glimpse everyone’s memories.

But at that moment, even defying fate, she was determined to know her father’s news.

Gu Jin focused her entire mind on exploring the memory of the person beneath her foot.

No one saw her tightly closed eyes, where her dark pupils turned to gold.

Gu Jin’s luck was good.

When she was prepared to exert all her effort, even risking being consumed by the Ancient Heaven-defying Skill, she easily obtained what she wanted.

Through the person beneath her foot, Gu Jin saw her father’s familiar face, and also how the people from Short Country brutally killed the Tianlong Special Guard.
