Chapter 508: I Won't Say Anything Even If I Die!

Gurgle gurgle gurgle!

Li Jing and Ali used the same method, once again pushing the two in the water.

When they came to, although they were still afraid to look at Old Tortoise, their hearts regained their composure and looked coldly at the group, saying, "Do you know who I am? How dare you meddle in our business. You're dead!"

Smack!

Just as he said that he was met with a slap. That surprised him and managed to calm him down.

"Are you clear with what the situation is now?"Ye Lingchen gave a cruel look at the two and stated calmly, "How much do you know of Amaterasu Genetics? Tell me everything and I'll offer you a painless end."

"Hehe, hahahahahaha..."

Upon hearing Ye Lingchen's words, the two could not resist bursting out laughing, then looked at Ye Lingchen with a gaze that seemed as though they were looking at a mentally challenged person. Number Four said, "Brat, you're too naive. We have gone through special training. No matter what methods you employ, it's impossible to make us talk. Even if you cut me up into pieces and feed the fish, I won't even wince!"

"I advise you to forget it if you're trying to learn any information from us. Ever since we accepted genetic experimentation, we've stopped caring for our lives!" Number Six stated while throwing a condescending grin at Ye Lingchen.

"F*ck, you're being boastful!"

Ali was filled with rage and gave each of them a punch. However, they were truly stubborn, only letting out a muffled grunt and continued to smile at Ye Lingchen condescendingly.

"You're trying to interrogate us with what you have? You're still wet around the ears." Number Six's gaze showed no signs of change, remaining devoid of emotions.

"We've endured our genes being modified. There's nothing else in this world that can make us wince in pain."

They were transformed into half beasts, causing their nature to be extremely twisted. It would seem that regular interrogation methods would not work.

Li Jing and Ali frowned at the same time, frustrated by the difficulty of this issue.

As they needed information, they could not afford to beat them to death. Moreover, regular torture methods were useless. It was really a troublesome situation.

Even martyrs would keep their secrets, much less these freaks of nature.

Clap, clap, clap...

Ye Lingchen's expression remained unchanged as he clapped for them, saying, "I hope you can keep this up."

"Since you guys love laughing so much, I'll let you laugh all you want in one go!" With that said, he placed his index finger and middle finger together and jabbed at a point on Number Four's waist!

That feeble prod caused Number Four's face to show signs of surprise, catching him off guard. However, in the next instant, his expression changed drastically. His mouth opened wide uncontrollably, then followed by his body going into spasms. An indescribable feeling started spreading all over his body.

"Hahaha, hahaha, wahahahaha..."

He bent backward in a fit of laughter, spasming uncontrollably, as though he was possessed and had no way to stop.

"What did you do?" Number Six, who was collected all the while had a drastic change in expression upon seeing such a creepy scene. He cried out in shock, "Get away from me, stay away..."

"Hahaha, wahahaha..."

Very soon, the place filled with the laughing sounds of Number Six and Number Four.

Laughing, by itself, was nothing much. However, if that laughing bout went on continuously, causing the muscles on the entire body to spasm and tears to run on, then it would be terrifying.

Number Four and Number Six remained laughing for a full 15 minutes. Their faces were stiff and their voices hoarse, yet they were unable to stop.

Even Li Jing, Ali, and Dong Miaomiao felt creeped out by the sight, much less the ones affected. They all looked at Ye Lingchen as though he was a god.

"Young Master Ye, could that be China's mysterious Touch of Death[1] skill?" Ali asked fearfully.

"That's right." Ye Lingchen nodded.

"I didn't expect Touch of Death to be real. I've always thought that it was just a work of fiction. This is too amazing," Li Jing lamented. Following Ye Lingchen had truly helped him witness wonders that he would not have witnessed on his own.

Compared to other Kungfu, the Touch of Death technique was absolutely godly. Although it lacks destructive strength, it makes up for it in practicality and versatility.

"So, will you talk?" Ye Lingchen watched the two paralyzed from laughing.

"No! Don't even think of getting any intelligence from me even if I have to die from laughing!"

"Good! I love you stubborn people. Do you want to die from laughing? Dream on." Ye Lingchen smiled gently. They can be used for him to experiment with his Touch of Death skill. He then pressed another spot on their body.

"Sob sob sob, sob sob sob..."

What was originally sounds of laughter were replaced by tragic cries.

Their crying sound continued in waves, neverending, causing quite a ruckus. Their tears flowed on continuously as though a breached dam.

The previous bouts of laughter had already sapped all the strength from their bodies. The following bouts of crying made it difficult for them to even catch their breath and felt as though their internal organs were spasming.

Another 15 minutes passed.

Number Four and Number Six's eyes were puffy and crinkly like walnuts. Their originally wide-open eyes were left with almost a slit. It was truly a pathetic sight. Add to that their gut-wrenching cries, they looked all the more pitiful.

"Will you talk?"

"No! We won't tell you anything even if we cried to death!"

Ye Lingchen kept quiet, then gave their bodies another poke.

"Ahhh, itchy! It's very itchy!"

Their bodies started to contort and spasm wildly. Their faces turned red in an instant and started rolling around on the ground.

If one had to choose a feeling that was most torturous, it would no doubt be itchiness.

Pain could be tolerated, but itchiness was really intolerable.

One can imagine countless little ants crawling around and mosquitoes occasionally taking a few bites on the body while being unable to touch them, only to feel that itchiness, the irritating feeling. Who could resist?

Number Four and Number Six were not afraid of pain, therefore Ye Lingchen had to find an alternate approach. Crying, laughing, and itchiness would definitely break someone mentally.

Only

"Will you talk now?"

"Yes, I'll talk! I'll tell you everything!" Number Four and Number Six nodded simultaneously. They stared at Ye Lingchen in abject terror as though they were looking at a demon. Those methods were really terrifying.

They were afraid to find out what this demon would do to them if they refused again.

"Bring them to two different areas and have them draw a topographic map of Amaterasu Genetics," Ye Lingchen instructed Li Jing and Ali. After that, he gave Number Four and Number Six a cold smile. "If the maps you draw contain any contradictions, then it would not be as simple as this!"

Number Four and Number Six trembled at the same time. They truly experienced what it was like to be trapped between life and death. Compared to the various tortures, Ye Lingchen's approach may seem gentle, but it was definitely the scariest torture method...

[1] 点穴 (Dian Xue / Touch of Death) - A widely known fictional skill in Chinese Wuxia genre that is claimed to be practiced by some in real life. With a badass name available in Wikipedia, we have decided to use that for the wow factor. Check it out at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Touch_of_Death

Please note that previously in chapter 451, this skill was named as Acupuncture (upgraded from Massage), but the name does not do the skill justice considering the way the author describes it in this chapter.
