Gu Shi Yi was out of breath and didn't dare to talk back, so he could only stand far away, hugging the Red Fox and sulking, while the Taoist nun said to the middle-aged man,
&"If you reveal your identity and the reason why you bred such harmful creatures, I will spare your life!"
The expression on the middle-aged man's face changed as he seemed to weigh his strength against that of the old Taoist nun, and he softened his tone,
&"Senior, I'm just carrying out someone else's orders. I ask for your mercy to let me live!"
The old Taoist nun contemplated the request and replied,
&"If you are only doing someone else's bidding, then tell me who is behind this and I will let you go!"
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man let out a wry laugh,
&"I dare not say!"
The old Taoist nun's eyebrows furrowed,
&"If you dare not say, then come here obediently, and let me search your soul, so it won't count as you telling!"
