Chapter 2122 The Five Poison Sect Matriarch’s Identity

Finished

Although Mackenzie and the Wolf Warrior Unit had achieved a decisive victory by capturing the members of the Five Poison Sect alive, the town guards realized something shocking after leaving the hotel. They discovered the sect had used poisonous gas to incapacitate a large crowd.

The guards couldn’t help but sigh in relief. If Mackenzie hadn’t anticipated this and invited them to the banquet, they might have fallen for the sect’s trap. Their fate would’ve been uncertain!

Soon, the guards provided Mackenzie with a secluded location, where Quintus tied up the sect leader in a small, dark room on the outskirts of the town.

A bucket of cold water splashed over his head, bringing the arrogant Mauve Protector back to consciousness.

When he saw two stunning women seated before him, his mood didn’t improve in the slightest.

Apart from the two women, there were also four men in the room–Quintus, Rhett, Magnus, and the captain of the town’s guards.

“What’s your rank in the Five Poison Sect?”

Mackenzie, with an icy demeanor, began her interrogation.

“Hah, who do you think you are to question me?”

Mauve Protector sneered defiantly. “I’d advise you, woman, to let me go. If you don’t, the Serpent King will send someone to deal with you. He’ll torment you until you wish you were dead, turning you into a mindless puppet. Hahaha…”

Smack!

Before he could finish laughing, Quintus slapped him so hard that two teeth flew out.

Blood filled his mouth, and half his face felt like it had vanished.

“Mackenzie, it looks like he hasn’t suffered enough yet. Let’s step outside and give it thirty minutes before we return,” Hattie suggested immediately.

Mackenzie nodded in agreement. She wasn’t skilled in torture and preferred to let others handle it while she took a quick walk to pass the time.

Sure enough, when she returned thirty minutes later, Mauve Protector’s expression had drastically changed.

If his earlier demeanor resembled that of a cocky young man fresh out of school, his current look mirrored a middle–aged man whose edges had been worn down by life.

“Magnus, what exactly did you do to him?” Mackenzie asked curiously.

Magnus smiled faintly. “Back in the medieval era, there were some excellent methods of interrogation I’ve always wanted to try. There are 103 in total, but unfortunately, time was limited. I only managed to test
