Gu Jin's gaze hardened. "You dare threaten me in my own home? What are you even thinking?"

Liang Bao stepped closer.

"Who sent you? Answer truthfully, and perhaps we will show mercy."

The intruder's eyes darted between Gu Jin and Liang Bao, realizing the severity of his predicament.

"I was sent by the same people who want Siyao dead. They fear her potential and seek to eliminate her before she becomes too powerful."

Gu Jin tightened the vines, making the intruder wince in pain. "Who are they?"

The intruder hesitated, then spat,

"You wouldn't understand their power. They are beyond your comprehension."

Liang Bao, eyes narrowing, moved closer toward the intruder,

"Last chance. Speak, or face the consequences."

The intruder suddenly extended its hand, ruthlessly cut off his own tongue, and moved back with Liang Bao in his hand.
