357: The Queen's Secret Guard, the Queen's Test

"I'll go with you."

"You all go back first."

The leading soldier said something to Song Kui, and then gave an order to the personnel beside him.

"Understood, Captain."

The soldiers beside him replied, and they decisively carried out the order.

"Let's go."

Song Kui also ordered his men to take the personnel arranged by the Empress.

Song Kui did not take them to where Jiang Chuan was. Instead, he found another hidden location and directly brought the personnel arranged by the Empress here.

Song Kui looked at the Empress's personnel in front of him and coldly spoke, "Tell me, why did the Empress ask you to find us for help this time?"

"I don't know."

The personnel arranged by the Empress immediately shook his head, indicating that he did not know the specific reason.

"Use some methods on him. We need to know the result before dark."

Song Kui merely smiled coldly when he heard his words.

"Understood."

The Law Enforcement Team Member laughed immediately upon hearing Song Kui's words, then looked at the Empress's personnel in front of him and acted without hesitation.

Ahhh!

Screams soon echoed throughout the room.

"Stop it! I'll talk, I'll talk."

Facing the torture of the Enforcement Team Members, the personnel arranged by the Empress finally couldn't hold out, and he shouted loudly to everyone.

"Speak."

Song Kui looked at the Empress's personnel, staring coldly at the other party.

"We all belong to the Empress's Shadow Guard. Although our existence is highly concealed, Aldo, as the Prince, still knows about us. In fact, our Shadow Guard has currently been brought under Aldo's control. As long as we dare to make any move, Aldo will eliminate them without hesitation. In that case, we would not only suffer heavy losses but also fail to save the Empress, which is why the Empress could only seek your help."

The personnel arranged by the Empress sincerely spoke these words, without any concealment.

"Shadow Guard?"

Song Kui looked deeply at the other party when he heard the words of the Empress's personnel, but said nothing more.

"Young Master Jiang, we have found out. The other party claims to be from the Empress's Shadow Guard."

After Song Kui walked to the side, he informed Jiang Chuan of the matter.

"Alright, I understand."

Jiang Chuan replied upon hearing this, and immediately hung up the phone.

"Pandora Heavenly Lord, do you happen to know about the Empress's Shadow Guard?"

Jiang Chuan contacted Pandora and directly asked this question.

"The Empress's Shadow Guard? Have they appeared too?"

Pandora was quite shocked to hear this, not expecting the Empress's Shadow Guard to have appeared as well.

"Yes, they have appeared. Could you tell me something about the Shadow Guard? It would be even better if you knew the location of their hideout."

Jiang Chuan immediately replied upon hearing Pandora's words, wanting to know about the Shadow Guard.

"The Shadow Guard is a force personally cultivated by the Empress. This force is the most elite power in the Empress's hands, and also the sharpest weapon. Furthermore, they only obey the Empress's orders; they will not obey anyone else's commands. The Shadow Guard members are even death warriors; they would never betray the Empress, even if they died..."

"As for the Shadow Guard's hideout, we don't know it, and this is all the information we have regarding the Shadow Guard's power."

Pandora told Jiang Chuan all the information she knew about the Shadow Guard, without any concealment.

"Alright, thank you. I understand."

Jiang Chuan thanked her after listening to Pandora's words.

After the conversation between Jiang Chuan and Pandora ended, he coldly said to Song Kui, "Continue the action. This fellow is not being honest."

"Understood, Young Master Jiang."

Song Kui respectfully nodded upon hearing Jiang Chuan's words, understanding his meaning.

Song Kui's cold voice rang out again, "Give our brother here a good 'relaxation,' and make him completely honest."

"Brother, what do you mean? I've told you everything I know."

When the Empress's personnel saw the Law Enforcement Team Member intending to continue torturing him, he immediately frowned and questioned them.

Song Kui just smiled coldly, "Since you are not honest, we can only force you to be honest."

"Brother, what part of me isn't honest? I've told you everything I know."

The personnel arranged by the Empress was completely stunned, having no idea what was going on, and spoke bitterly.

Song Kui also intended to let the fellow in front of him die with understanding, so he looked coldly at the other party and spoke these words, "The Empress's Shadow Guard would never betray the Empress, even in death. Based on your manner, it is impossible for you to be a Shadow Guard member. So, tell us your true identity."

"That's it?"

The personnel arranged by the Empress was dumbfounded when he heard Song Kui's words, looking at the other party in disbelief.

Song Kui did not speak, merely staring intently at the other party. If he wanted to reduce the torture or even survive, the other party could only provide a sufficient explanation.

"This is what the Empress required me to do."

"Even if you hadn't moved against me, I would have made a move to test you. After all, your existence concerns the future of the Empress, so the Empress is extremely cautious. I just didn't expect your strength to be so formidable. I am no match for you at all. Your strength must be comparable to our captain's, making you fully qualified to enter the palace and rescue the Empress."

The personnel arranged by the Empress knew that there was no way to hide the situation further, so he spoke without hesitation. After all, the Empress had told him to reveal everything when concealment was no longer possible.

"I can personally call the Empress."

Seeing that Song Kui was still unwilling to believe him, the personnel arranged by the Empress could only speak these bitter words.

"Mm."

Song Kui nodded upon hearing this. As long as the other party could connect the call, the matter would be completely clear.

"Have the arrangements been made?"

"Did you carry out the test on them? How is their strength? Can they successfully rescue me?"

Just as the personnel arranged by the Empress called the Empress, she immediately bombarded him with a series of questions.

Song Kui also connected Jiang Chuan's phone. When Jiang Chuan heard the Empress's words, his cold voice immediately transmitted through the phone, "Your Majesty, it seems you do not trust our strength. Since you do not trust our strength, we can completely choose not to rescue you."

"Who are you?"

The Empress frowned and questioned him after hearing Jiang Chuan's unfamiliar voice.

"The person who will rescue you this time. If you continue to test us like this next time, we will have no choice but to abandon the rescue operation."

After realizing this was a test from the Empress, Jiang Chuan breathed a sigh of relief. After saying these words to the Empress, he immediately hung up the phone.
