I had already ascended to heaven when the spiritual energy began to recover?

Chapter 34 Trial of Sinners

"Your name?"

"Zhao Jianguo".

Bai Sheng holds a scepter made of white bones.

Looking at the dark gray soul entity opposite, whose humanoid outline was exceptionally clear,

He couldn't help but frown slightly.

The man spoke in a calm and unhurried tone.

He possesses an inherent composure cultivated from years of holding high positions.

This won't do!

Bai Sheng mentally went through the thoughts.

If a person is still so serious even after death, what must they have been like in life?

This kind of arrogance shouldn't be tolerated.

We need to take down his airs first.

Otherwise, you won't get any real information from them.

"Now that you know I'm an immortal..."

Bai Sheng lightly tapped his bone cane on the ground and asked in a cold voice.

"Why are you still so arrogant?"

Zhao Jianguo's smile froze for a moment.

He clearly hadn't expected the other party to suddenly turn hostile.

His lips moved as if he was about to explain.

Bai Sheng didn't give him a chance to speak.

With a thought, the bone staff in his hand twirled...

The entire scepter silently disintegrated and quickly reformed into a long white bone whip.

The whip is made of interlocking segments of a snake's spine.

A burst of purple light!

The long whip lashed through the air, precisely wrapping around Zhao Jianguo's soul's torso.

Circling several times from the chest to the waist,

Tighten it tightly!

"Well--"

Zhao Jianguo finally stopped pretending.

He let out a muffled groan of pain.

The gray outline on the surface of the soul body

The whip bones trembled violently at the point where they tightened.

His composure finally crumbled.

The true nature of the underlying structure has been revealed.

Fear, pain.

"Get your posture right!"

Bai Sheng's voice was calm.

With a slight flick of his wrist, the whip tightened even more.

Zhao Jianguo's legs trembled violently.

The entire soul involuntarily descended.

The once straight back was bent under the weight.

He lowered his head with difficulty: "...Yes, yes."

Bai Sheng waited for a moment,

Once it was confirmed that his arrogant demeanor had completely vanished,

He then pulled his wrist back.

The whip automatically unfurled, disintegrating into dozens of bone fragments in mid-air.

It flipped and coalesced, transforming into a white bone chair in mid-air.

The chair back is high and straight.

A snake-eye purple light is embedded on each side of the armrest.

It's like a throne that should naturally belong in this cave of bones.

Bai Sheng's spirit leaned back in the chair.

Looking down at Zhao Jianguo kneeling on the bone wall.

"Next, God will judge your sins!"

He placed his right hand on the armrest.

I tapped the bone-thin chair surface, and it produced a very faint tapping sound.

Although it sounds like a somewhat chaotic and absurd fusion of East and West.

But it doesn't matter.

But who knows what the afterlife is like?

People are still willing to believe what they see with their own eyes.

"State your crimes!"

Please recount in detail all the evil deeds he committed during his lifetime.

Bai Sheng leaned forward slightly.

"If you dare to tell a single lie, I'll make you regret it."

Zhao Jianguo lowered his head and remained silent for a moment.

"My name is Zhao Jianguo, I'm a local from Yangcheng, and I work in architectural development."

Having worked in real estate for over a decade, I have several property developments under my management and have also undertaken some federal government projects.

This wasn't a project dispute; it was a conflict with a competitor... They bribed my driver to stab me in the underground parking garage!

Bai Sheng did not speak immediately after hearing this.

The Soul-Capturing Technique had long ago determined that this person was a heinous criminal.

The intense malevolence within the deathly aura,

It cannot be fostered by commercial disputes.

Bai Sheng's voice turned cold: "You still dare to lie?"

Zhao Jianguo's soul paused for a moment.

He opened his mouth, wanting to argue.

Bai Sheng waved his right hand.

The bone chair instantly disintegrated, and dozens of bone fragments transformed into a long bone sword in mid-air.

The sword is straight, with the tip pointing downwards.

It hangs less than an inch directly above Zhao Jianguo's head.

The snake-like purple light flashed simultaneously on both sides of the sword guard.

The light made Zhao Jianguo's entire face turn a ghastly purple.

"Who do you think you're talking to?"

Bai Sheng stood up and walked to Zhao Jianguo.

"I know everything you did in your life! Your crimes were heinous, and you deserve to die!"

I'm giving you one last chance. If you dare to slip up even one more word, this sword will pierce right through the top of your head.

You can try it; see if you can die again after you've already died.

This longsword made of white bone was like the Sword of Damocles hanging overhead.

This is clearly the last chance!

Even with Zhao Jianguo's incredible audacity, he dared not risk his life.

I said...

With a trembling voice, Zhao Jianguo began to slowly recall the crimes he had committed throughout his life...

It's clear that, given the premise of this being his last chance, Zhao Jianguo really didn't dare to ramble on anymore.

He also gave a detailed account of how he bullied classmates when he was a child.

"I dropped out of school at seventeen and followed the leader of the North City gang..."

At twenty-three, I started my own team, collecting protection money at the building materials market...

Later, when the real estate industry took off, I started to get involved in sand pits and waste transportation. At that time, half of the construction sites in Yangcheng had to use my truck fleet for earthwork. Each truckload of earth was worth 2,000 yuan, and I made several thousand truckloads a day!

At the time, a boss from out of town wanted to get involved, so I had people block his construction site and smash his equipment…”

He paused for a moment.

It was as if they were waiting for Bai Sheng's reaction.

Bai Sheng didn't react, so he gritted his teeth and continued.

"Later, I laundered part of my business and opened a construction company and a transportation company, but the sand pit and construction waste were still mine."

I've also had connections with people in the federal city government...

They helped me avoid inspections a few times, and I helped them with some things they couldn't do themselves..."

"Eight years ago, there was a holdout at the construction site. I personally led a group there and cut off their water, electricity, and gas."

It was winter. I had the old man and woman carried out of the house. The old woman died the day after they were taken out…”

Bai Sheng lowered the bone sword by an inch, piercing directly into Zhao Jianguo's chest.

"Ahhhhh!"

Zhao Jianguo lay prostrate on the bone wall, his soul trembling like a leaf.

That's all! Really, that's all!

Bai Sheng still ignored him.

He continued to let the bone sword fall and pierce his chest.

Zhao Jianguo wailed, watching helplessly as his soul dissipated bit by bit.

Feeling life slipping away...

till the end,

suddenly,

The bone sword's descent finally came to an abrupt halt.

"Forehead……"

Zhao Jianguo was almost completely silent.

Bai Sheng waited a while, making sure he had stopped, before speaking, "Anything else?"

"Immortal Master, I've revealed everything..."

Bai Sheng frowned: "Of course I know you told me everything."

"Go on...where are you hiding your sins, your dirty money?"

A fleeting look of doubt crossed Zhao Jianguo's face.

He probably never expected that an immortal would be so interested in money.

But this glimmer of doubt only flashed for a moment before being suppressed by the bone sword above his head.

He lowered his head again: "Eight million two hundred thousand in cash, and more than twenty gold bars in a hidden compartment behind the wardrobe in the bedroom..."

"There are four other bank accounts, totaling about eight million, but the accounts are not in my name..."

Bai Sheng frowned; it would be difficult to use this money for his own purposes.

Zhao Jianguo paused for a moment, as if he was hesitating about something.

Bai Sheng didn't speak, but simply made the bone sword press down another half inch.

Zhao Jianguo hurriedly said, "There's also a cold wallet; I've converted most of the money into cryptocurrency."

After all these years, what I fear most isn't the police checking the accounts, but being double-crossed by the criminals!

Money kept in a bank can be traced and stolen, and money kept at home can also be confiscated one day.

Cryptocurrency is different; it's like a mnemonic phrase. Once you remember it, it's money wherever you go.

I converted half of the dirty money I've made over the years into cryptocurrency and stored it in an offline cold wallet..."
