Chapter 249 Zhang Cang
Bang!
Chen Xiangnan flew upside down and quickly got up, came to the young man and roared angrily: "Zhang Cang, what do you mean?"
"This is the territory of our torture hall, and you Chen Xiangnan have no right to interrogate prisoners!"
The young man Zhang Cang glanced coldly at Chen Xiangnan and his subordinates, and threw all the silver needles of the scorpion in his hand to the ground.
Although he looked like a gentleman, as soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly burst out with the momentum of the peak realm of the Martial Sect, forcing Chen Xiangnan and his subordinates to take a step back.
As the most talented disciple of the Qing Hades Palace, Zhang Cang's reputation had already spread throughout the entire Qing Hades Temple. Although Chen Xiangnan is also a bit powerful in the Qing Hades Palace, he is not worth mentioning compared to Zhang Cang.
Originally, this time to investigate the Bai family's affairs, the Qingying Temple was ready for Zhang Cang to carry it out. It's just that Zhang Cang shirked his physical discomfort, so Chen Xiangnan seized the opportunity. He planned to use this merit to soar and become the most respected disciple in the Qingyin Hall in one fell swoop, so he was extremely persistent in asking about the whereabouts of Bai Xi and the Winged Man Army.
After Zhang Cang learned the news that Chen Xiangnan used the scorpion silver needle to interrogate the prisoner, he immediately came to the prison to stop Chen Xiangnan from further violence. After he kicked Chen Xiangnan away, he stood firmly in front of Bai Qiyun, not allowing them to have any chance to continue to question Bai Qiyun.
"Although the prison is the territory of your torture hall, I, Chen Xiangnan, am the person in charge of this operation! All the members of the Bai family were personally caught by me in the Qingyin Temple, if you want to rob me of my credit now, it's impossible!"
When Chen Xiangnan saw Zhang Cang appear in the prison, he instantly thought of the purpose of the other party's coming here, so a strong hostility and resistance erupted in his eyes, and he did not intend to make the slightest concession to Zhang Cang.
Originally, his talent was not as good as Zhang Cang, if the credit was snatched away by Zhang Cang this time, then Chen Xiangnan might always be suppressed by Zhang Cang in the Qingyin Hall in the future. Chen Xiangnan had already looked at Zhang Cang unpleasantly, so it was impossible to let go of this opportunity to surpass him.
"Merit? I don't care about your merit at all! It's just that in the territory of our torture hall, everything has to be done according to the rules! You tortured the prisoner without my permission, and now you dare to use the scorpion silver needle, you simply don't take our torture hall seriously!"
Because it was the prerogative of the disciples of the Torture Hall to interrogate the prisoners with the Scorpion Silver Needle, and other disciples of the Blue Immortal Hall were not allowed to treat the prisoners in such an extreme way without permission, so Zhang Cang had no scruples to stop Chen Xiangnan from continuing to commit violence.
However, Chen Xiangnan was disdainful of Zhang Cang's words, and after he snorted coldly, he replied to Zhang Cang with a look of weakness in his eyes: "Are the rules of your torture hall more important than the orders of the hall master? I directly accepted the order of the hall master to interrogate the members of the Bai family this time, what qualifications do you have to stop me? Get out of here now, otherwise don't blame me for suing you in front of the hall master!"
Not only did Chen Xiangnan not back down at all, but even Chen Xiangnan's subordinates had no intention of leaving the prison.
Although Zhang Cang's fame is very great, they all point to the meritorious service of this examination, so they will never compromise with Zhang Cang easily.
Seeing this, Zhang Cang did not immediately drive people away. Because he came to the prison this time to stop Chen Xiangnan and the others, he did not ask the elders of the torture hall for instructions at all.
As Chen Xiangnan said just now, because it was about the Heavenly Dao Order and the Winged Human Army, even if Chen Xiangnan's time was a little excessive, whether it was the elder of the torture hall or the hall master of the Qingyin Palace, it was estimated that he would not be blamed for this.
On the other hand, if Zhang Cang had asked the Torture Hall Elder for instructions in advance, he might not have been allowed to enter the prison at all. Because the elders of the torture hall knew that Zhang Cang was kind-hearted, they couldn't bear to see Chen Xiangnan use too cruel means to force the prisoners. As soon as Zhang Cang enters the prison, the two sides will definitely face off directly, which is only bad and not good for the current Qing Ying Temple.
Because after the collapse of the Tongtian Gate and the Cangyun Sect, the status of the six major sects is no longer as good as before, and the Qingyin Temple can't care about the reputation of the Great Gate Sect. As long as they can complete the tasks assigned by the Heavenly Dao Academy as quickly as possible, their six major sects will be able to get rewards from the Heavenly Dao Academy. When the time comes, not to mention the other forces of the Canglang Dynasty, even the Canglang royal family will not dare to underestimate them in the slightest, what is a little reputation?
Zhang Cang knew this, so he broke into the prison alone. When he saw that Bai Qiyun was violently assaulted by Chen Xiangnan with the Scorpion Silver Needle, he instinctively felt a feeling of disgust, and directly kicked Chen Xiangnan into the air.
But now that Chen Xiangnan and the others were determined to continue to interrogate the Bai family, Zhang Cang couldn't lead other torture hall disciples to stop them, and the two sides suddenly fell into a stalemate.
"No matter what, as long as I, Zhang Cang, am here today, you don't want to touch any more of these prisoners!"
After struggling for a while, Zhang Cang suddenly gritted his teeth, raised his head and said fiercely to Chen Xiangnan.
At the same time, he once again burst out the momentum of his Martial Sect's peak realm, making Chen Xiangnan and his subordinates look solemn, and they didn't dare to step forward easily for the time being.
Chen Xiangnan glanced at Zhang Cang deeply, and finally took a deep breath and said solemnly to Zhang Cang: "I will tell the hall master what happened today, and see how you explain to the hall master when the time comes!"
After finishing speaking, Chen Xiangnan led his men out of the prison.
Although Chen Xiangnan was ordered by the hall master of the Qing Hades Temple, he was not afraid that Zhang Cang would make trouble from it, but Zhang Cang had many followers in the Qing Hades Temple. If a conflict really broke out with him in the prison just now, even if Chen Xiangnan finally got the support of the hall master of the Blue Hell Palace, he would inevitably be targeted by Zhang Cang's followers in the future.
Before receiving the reward and really rising, Chen Xiangnan still planned to forbear it for the time being. And Zhang Cang's behavior today can be used to be reckless
Chen Xiangnan believed that after this matter reached the ears of the hall master of the Blue Hell Temple, he would soon get the punishment he deserved.
Chen Xiangnan's judgment was basically correct, and Zhang Cang also knew what the consequences would be if this matter was known to the high-level of the Blue Hades Palace. But after hesitating for a while, he still chose to listen to his inner voice, no matter whether the Bai family was really related to the Winged People Army or not, he would not allow Chen Xiangnan to torture the prisoner to death.
"Thank you!"
The head of the Bai family, Bai Qiyun, finally gradually recovered his vitality, although he was greatly tortured just now, he was still clear about what happened after Zhang Cang's arrival, so he thanked him solemnly.
By now, Bai Qiyun had already regarded death as home, so he never thought of giving in under Chen Xiangnan's torture. However, the power of the Scorpion Silver Needle still far exceeded his expectations, making Bai Qiyun truly experience a period of time when he could not survive and could not die.
He looked at Zhang Cang's eyes full of gratitude, but he still said to Zhang Cang in a resolute tone: "I know that the Qing Hades Temple is determined to win the whereabouts of the Winged People Army, but our Bai family really doesn't know the location of the Winged People Army. If Your Excellency intends to persuade me to tell me the news that the Blue Hades Temple wants to know, I advise you to dispel this thought. ”
Bai Qiyun didn't know Zhang Cang, so he didn't know Zhang Cang's personality. He saw that Zhang Cang took over the prison after driving Chen Xiangnan and the others away, and thought that he was planning to find out the whereabouts of the Winged People's Army from the side, so he made it clear that the other party would dispel his thoughts.
But to his surprise, Zhang Cang did not mean to continue to interrogate the Bai family.
"You misunderstood me! I just can't get used to Chen Xiangnan's unscrupulous appearance! If your Bai family is completely killed by Chen Xiangnan because of harboring the Winged People's Army, I won't say a word. But I can't tolerate Chen Xiangnan's unscrupulous torture of prisoners! For me, although the result is important, the process must not violate the principle either! Otherwise, I would rather not have that result!"
Zhang Cang glanced at Bai Qiyun, and a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.
Because the Scorpion Silver Needle was originally developed by their torture hall, Zhang Cang was very aware of the pain of being hit by the Scorpion Silver Needle. Bai Qiyun is over fifty years old, and although his cultivation has reached the peak of the Martial Sect, his energy is still a little behind that of young people. He was hit by Chen Xiangnan's two scorpion silver needles, but he didn't die, and Zhang Cang had to be impressed by Bai Qiyun's endurance.
As for the punishment that he might be punished by the hall master of the Qingyin Hall after he drove away Chen Xiangnan and the others, Zhang Cang knew very well in his heart, but he did not regret it.
Ever since his best friend Guan Yao was forcibly taken to the battlefield by the top leaders of the sect and disappeared to participate in the battle organized by the Tower of Babel and the Cangyun Sect, Zhang Cang had been extremely disappointed in the Blue Hades Temple. Even if the hall master of the Qingying Hall expelled him directly from the sect, Zhang Cang would not have the slightest regret in his heart.
Bai Qiyun saw that the expression in Zhang Cang's eyes was extremely resolute, and his face couldn't help but show a hint of surprise.
Not only him, but Bai Zongpu and the others not far away also heard Zhang Cang's words, and they all looked at this disciple of the Blue Hades Hall who suddenly appeared. However, they didn't think that Zhang Cang and Chen Xiangnan's different opinions would definitely help them escape from the Green Underworld Temple.
Bai Qiyun sighed after a moment of silence, and finally said to Zhang Cang with emotion: "There was once a person in our Bai family who was as stubborn as you, and in the end, he left the Bai family and disappeared in front of everyone's eyes. But I don't blame him, and I'm even faintly proud of him, because only those who can stick to their principles can stand up to the sky!"
The atmosphere in the prison gradually became solemn, and there was even a hint of sadness.
Bai Zongpu and the others had already guessed who the person in Bai Qiyun's mouth was, but none of them meant to blame Bai Xi. Just like when he Bai Xi received the most support in the Bai family, even if he has now left the Bai family, most of the Bai family still respect his choice very much.
And they believed that if Bai Xi knew that the Bai family was in trouble, no matter where he was, he would definitely come to save their Bai family from trouble. Therefore, the hope in the eyes of the Bai family has not disappeared, even if the possibility is very small, they still have not given up helping the Bai family to make a comeback.
