My beautiful CEO wife

Although Xiao Zheng is acting quite smug right now, to be honest, Hades still admires him.

After all, based solely on such luck, Hades couldn’t find a second person like him.

"Wake them up."

"We will soon know the secrets of the Ancient Clan and the Ancient World."

Who knows how much time has passed, Hades finally spoke slowly.

Xiao Zheng nodded, then proceeded to heal the two.

While healing Eugene and Colin, he didn’t hold back. He was truly healing them. After all, this is the Netherworld King Temple, with him and Hades overseeing it together, they aren’t worried about these two escaping.

Their injuries healed instantly, and they gradually woke up.

When they saw the unfamiliar surroundings, they immediately threw themselves into a combat stance out of fear!

Seeing the panicked actions of both men, Xiao Zheng couldn’t help but laugh: "Don’t be so anxious, you’re both still alive and well."

"It’s actually you!" Colin exclaimed in shock.

Eugene also regained his composure, recalling the battle from last night. His gaze toward Xiao Zheng was filled with fear: "What is this place exactly? Why did you bring us here, and what do you want from us?"

"This is the Netherworld King Temple." Hades said slowly.

Upon hearing her somewhat cold voice, the two finally noticed that there was actually a fourth person present in the hall!

"Netherworld King Temple? You are Hades, the Netherworld King?" Eugene’s face instantly turned very grim; it was clear he had heard of Hades’ name after leaving the Ancient World.

As for Colin, he showed a look of despair.

They couldn’t deal with just Xiao Zheng alone, and now with Hades in the mix, their hope was utterly dashed.

Xiao Zheng had already pulled up a chair to sit down, looking at the two panicked men, and then he asked: "Don’t be afraid, I won’t kill you for the time being. But you must listen carefully, because it’s only temporary."

"If you refuse to cooperate obediently later, I will kill nonetheless."

His words reached a climax with a murderous intent.

Eugene and Colin were internally shaken and gritted their teeth, their hearts filled with hatred toward Xiao Zheng.

Xiao Zheng didn’t mind their animosity, he asked: "Last night, you mentioned that you’re from the Ancient World. Now tell me, where exactly is the Ancient World?"

Upon hearing this, Eugene and Colin realized why Xiao Zheng brought them there.

Understanding everything, Colin sneered: "Dream on! We will never reveal anything about the Ancient World! Anyway, our Ancient Clan’s army will soon reach the outside world!"

"By then, you all will have to submit or die!"

Although Eugene remained silent, a hint of pride appeared on his face.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Zheng couldn’t help but laugh: "Not bad, not bad, you two really have some backbone, just like Li Wei who died at my hands before. He had backbone like you too."

"But I don’t need to elaborate on what happened to him, do I?"

"Are you threatening us?" Eugene asked coldly.

Xiao Zheng shrugged, casually saying: "You can see it that way. In truth, I’m just demonstrating a principle. That principle is: people who are stubborn usually don’t meet good ends."

"Enough, I don’t want to waste words with you."

"I’m giving you one minute to think. After one minute, if you still don’t answer my questions, I will randomly pick one of you to kill."

He spoke in a casual tone.

Killing someone seemed as simple as crushing an ant.

Yet those simple words sounded to Eugene and Colin like thunder in clear skies! A shadow of death had enveloped their hearts!

"Starting now."

Without looking at them, Xiao Zheng spoke self-assuredly.

With his words, the atmosphere in the hall immediately became extremely tense.

Inside, Eugene and Colin started to struggle fiercely, exchanging looks and seeing the conflict in each other’s eyes. Still, the more conflicted they were, the faster time passed.

Suddenly, Xiao Zheng spoke: "Time’s up, out of humanitarian concern, I can allow you to close your eyes together. That way, whoever dies, you won’t see your companion’s death."

His considerate tone dropped into Eugene and Colin’s ears like a demon whispering.

The two then shivered uncontrollably, their gazes filled with terror as they looked at Xiao Zheng.

"I-I’ll talk!"

Eugene bit his lip, finally deciding.

Colin, although wanting to hold his ground, seeing Eugene submit, finally chose defeat: "I-I’ll talk too..."

Hearing their response, Xiao Zheng and Hades exchanged glances, noticing a hint of amusement in each other’s eyes.

Clearing his throat, Xiao Zheng spoke: "Congratulations on making what’s likely the wisest decision of your lives. Now, don’t rush, we’ll conduct separate interrogations."

"Separate interrogations? Why separate us?" Eugene asked angrily.

Hearing this, Xiao Zheng’s smile disappeared, his voice cold: "What? Are you questioning me?"

Feeling his murderous intent, Eugene’s words got stuck in his throat.

After a cold snort, Xiao Zheng continued: "Separating you is to prevent any lies. We’ll ask you the same questions separately; if your answers differ, you’ll die!"

Listening to this, a look of despair appeared in Eugene and Colin’s eyes.

They hadn’t expected Xiao Zheng’s thoughts to be so meticulous.

The plan to lie had now completely failed.

"Hades, prepare a secret room for me," Xiao Zheng said, not looking at the two, turning to Hades, "I’ll take one of them, and the remaining one is for you to interrogate."

Hades nodded, then called an attendant.

The attendant appeared, quickly leading the way.

As for Xiao Zheng, he directly took Eugene out of the Temple!
