Chapter 52 - Self detonation

Dongfang's grip on Ximen Wei's hair tightened, causing him to wince in pain. He glared at Dongfang with a mixture of anger and fear, his mind racing as he tried to come up with a plan to escape. But as he watched Dongfang's eyes fixate on his possessions, he knew that his chances of getting out of this alive were slim.

"Tell your daddy Dongfang from where you got this stuff, else I will flay you alive!" 

Ximen Wei gritted his teeth, refusing to answer Dongfang's demand. He was not going to give up the secrets, not even under the threat of torture. But as Dongfang's grip on his hair tightened, Ximen Wei felt his resolve start to crumble. The pain was excruciating, and he could feel strands of hair being ripped out of his scalp.

As he cursed under his breath, Ximen Wei's mind wandered back to the moments before Bai Gu Jing disappeared into the medallion. He couldn't help but feel a sense of bitterness and anger towards him.
