The Supporting Actress Made A Comeback-Chapter 979 - 983: More Terrifying Than Death Is the Unknown

The Death Soldier looked at him in fear.

This man in a white robe was undeniably handsome and elegant, standing tall like a deity.

Yet the Death Soldier felt a sense of danger pressing upon him.

He wasn’t afraid of death.

But what was more terrifying than death was the unknown.

Jie Kong held his longsword and suddenly raised his hand; the Death Soldier felt a chill sweep past his eyes as the blade tip made a pass before him.

The fabric stuffed in his mouth slipped out, and only then did the Death Soldier realize he was drenched in cold sweat.

"Don’t scare him," a gentle female voice came from behind the man in white, "I still need to ask him some questions."

Jie Kong did not turn around, instead calmly retracting his longsword.

Mo Shu stepped forward, standing in front of the Death Soldier with a light smile on her face.

Jie Kong glanced sideways at her, noticing she was wearing different clothes.

Normally, she always wore black clothing, but today she had changed into an ice-blue long dress, her hair casually pinned into a half-bun with a hairpin, looking like an Immortal, with an indescribable ethereal grace.

It suited her quite well.

Jie Kong quickly looked away, turning around.

Mo Shu’s attention was fully on the Death Soldier before her, asking in a soft voice, "Did Mo Qing send you?"

The Death Soldier quickly calmed down, withholding the amazement from his eyes, saying, "Eldest Princess, you should give up. I won’t say anything."

"Is that so?" Mo Shu chuckled lightly, "I didn’t expect you’d be so stubborn. Let me know when you’re ready to talk."

The Death Soldier didn’t expect Mo Shu to let him go so easily, finding it hard to believe.

But then suddenly, he heard the bleating of a sheep.

The sheep’s bleating was crisp, quite noticeable in the night.

The Death Soldier looked and saw a young woman leading a sheep over.

"Princess, the sheep has arrived."

Mo Shu slightly raised an eyebrow, saying, "Take off his shoes and socks."

The Death Soldier found it strange, "What’s this for?"

"It’s nothing, just letting you enjoy one last time before you die."

Mo Shu sat down on a chair behind her.

The young woman was a maid Jie Kong had found from somewhere today, plain-looking but very efficient.

Mo Shu appreciated such a person and accepted her without hesitation.

Several others dressed in dark clothing passed by, and Mo Shu glanced to the side, noticing an extra chair had appeared at some point.

Jie Kong sat down naturally and said, "What kind of method is this?"

In this era, there wasn’t such a torture method for interrogation; no one had seen it, so naturally, they couldn’t imagine what Mo Shu intended to do.

Mo Shu replied, "You’ll find out soon enough."

Jie Kong remained calm, casually saying, "Block his mouth for me."

Although he didn’t direct it at anyone, Xuyu, someone appeared from the shadows to carry out the command.

Mo Shu glanced at Jie Kong.

Just as Jie Kong never asked about her background, Mo Shu also never inquired about him.

But just as Mo Shu did not hide her identity from him, Jie Kong seemed not to have any intention of concealing his.

Soon, the maid, called Zhao Mei, whom Jie Kong brought, removed the Death Soldier’s shoes and socks and turned to Mo Shu, "Princess, it’s done."

"Did you bring the honey as instructed? Apply it on his soles."
