Chapter 358: Core Region

What intrigued her the most was how Ding Dong's soul was trying to resist his physical transformation. Even though it could not be seen with the naked eye, Vesa could easily check this.Besides the tied-down Ding Dong, Long was also in the same situation, with his two unconscious maids.

Other than Vesa, Elvira and Luciel were also there.

Usually, the interrogation was done on one of Alex's awe cubes. But now it was done inside Edonia.

"I will tell you everything you want. Just spare me and my maids. As for Ding Dong, I will keep my mouth shut."

But Vesa didn't respond to his plea. Instead, she asked, "How did you create this pill?"

"I made it myself. I will tell you the recipe if that is what you want."

"Tell me," Vesa replied.

She wanted to understand how the pill worked, to then compare it with other pill effects. Understanding what kind of bloodline this Ding Dong had.

She could have asked for information from Long, but Vesa thought it was better to try to understand it herself first to avoid having a biased view. It wasn't like she was in a hurry.

'Vesa, do what you want to do later. For now, I need information,' MingYue ordered.

'Alright, Queen,' Vesa complied. She then turned to Elvira and Luciel. "You both know what Queen wants. It's your job to get the information from him."

Elvira hesitated to answer. She had never tortured someone before. As for Luciel, having experienced living in constant battle with gluttony, she didn't hesitate to agree.

In her mind, as long as she could have a good relationship with Vesa, her family's future was guaranteed.

Luciel started walking toward Long. "Wait… Just ask your questions first."

"First, tell us why you were there having a conflict with that man?" Luciel asked while she looked at the instruments Vesa had prepared on the site.

Rather than torture devices, it was more like operation tools.

As for Ding Dong, he couldn't say anything. His mouth was gagged, and his body still hurt like hell.

After the transformation had finished, it turned out that the reaction from his body was not that simple.

As his soul tried to fight the pill effect, his body was transformed, destroyed, and then transformed again and again on the inside.

It was like someone was burning down his heart, regenerating it only to burn it down again. Not only pain, he also felt intense itchiness but couldn't scratch it.

This result was expected by Long. He didn't have further plans to bring Ding Dong somewhere else. His real plan was to escape quickly after making fun of him a few more times.

He was sure no one would dare to move Ding Dong away, making him a spectacle in the town for a few days. Then, when the pill effect started wearing off, the Zephyr clan princess would arrive.

Long had gotten his information from a very trustworthy source. Ding Dong didn't know the reason for the visit.

He then explained everything as it was not a huge secret. Long was very cooperative as he knew the one who abducted him was not something normal.

He could feel a sense of danger coming from Vesa more than from his own Ancestor.

The reason was probably because his own Ancestor never had ill will toward him, but he preferred to choose the safest option.

As long as their request was acceptable, he would fulfill it all.

"So the gist was both of you were fighting over this princess and trying to humiliate each other?"

"Yes, as I said, I believe it's nothing big or important for people like you. If you have anything else you want, just ask."

'Luciel, ask him which clan they come from and what this Zephyr clan is. I want to know everything,' MingYue ordered, using Vesa as a medium to talk to Luciel telepathically.

'Yes, Queen.'

"My name is Long Jian, from the Jian clan. As for that half-dog bastard, he is from the Dong clan. Both of our clans are protected by an immortal.

Our clans have their own hold in the central region. As for the Zephyr clan, they come from the core region."

"Where is this core region?" Luciel asked based on MingYue's instruction.

"The core region is located deep underground. To enter there, we need to pass through a special path guarded by the gatekeeper."

"So, is the Zephyr clan stronger than your clan?" seaʀᴄh thё nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Not necessarily. I honestly don't know much about this, but those clans coming from the core region are always treated respectfully, no matter what cultivation realm they are.

So, if I succeed in building a relationship with them through marriage, my standing in the family will rise.

Oh yeah, one more thing, this is just a rumor, but there are new sayings that this core region clan has multiple immortals."

Luciel frowned. This whole cultivation thing was new to her. But she understood that the immortal realm represented their clan's strength.

"If that is right, how could you say the clans in the core region are not stronger than yours? Are you joking with me?"

"I am sorry, but as I said before, it's just a rumor. I also think the same. If they have more immortals than us, there is no way we could coexist peacefully."

"Have you ever visited this core region?"

"No, only the elders occasionally visit there. As for us, we only interact with clans from the core region at gathering events."

"Then isn't this Zephyr clan's visit to this region weird? It's not something common."

"Yes and no. While it's not common, it has happened multiple times in the past.

Not just the Zephyr clan princess, many of the young generation also sometimes come to visit. But they usually hide their identity."

"How about the path toward the core region, then?

How do you know it's underground if you've never visited there?

Is it just another rumor?"
