Chapter 174: Torturing the Imperial General (35)

Time passed minute by minute, and Jiang Yan just stared at the scene outside the window quietly without saying a word for a long time.

Finally, after a long while, he turned his gaze back to Lu Qinian, opened his lips slightly, and slowly uttered a few words: "Spiritual Brand."

Then, he took a deep breath and continued, "Lu Qinian, you can impose a mental imprint on me."

"In this way, I will completely obey your orders and be submissive to you. Then, perhaps you will truly believe in my loyalty."

After hearing this, Lu Qinian's body trembled slightly and he was stunned for a moment.

The so-called "spiritual imprint" can easily make people understand its meaning just by looking at the literal meaning.

This is by no means an ordinary mark, but a unique symbol deeply engraved in the spiritual world.

When this imprint is successfully established, it is like a seed taking root, sprouting, and then growing vigorously in fertile soil.

After that, trying to erase or eliminate it becomes almost an impossible task, because it has become closely connected with the spirit of the recipient and has become one with them.

And those who are branded with this stigma will find themselves in an irresistible situation.

They will obey every instruction issued by the sealer without hesitation and unconditionally, and carry out the instructions mechanically like puppets that have lost their self-awareness.

Precisely because this spiritual imprint has such powerful and irreversible characteristics and possesses amazing control power, most of the time, it is only used against those who have committed heinous crimes and committed numerous evil deeds.

The actions of these people have long deviated from the moral bottom line of mankind and have caused great damage to social order. Only through such extreme measures can they receive the punishment they deserve and prevent them from continuing to commit evil.

However, we have to admit that such measures do seem a bit overbearing and extreme. If abused carelessly, they will inevitably lead to a series of serious consequences.

Imagine if someone with evil intentions used this powerful force to satisfy personal desires, the entire society might fall into chaos and turmoil.

Jiang Yan, however, gave Lu Qinian a relieved smile and said softly, "Anyway, I'm just a spy sent by the Federation. Why are you still hesitating here, General Lu?"

Lu Qinian stared at the smile of the person in front of him, and suddenly his heart felt like it was stabbed by a sharp object, the pain was unbearable. That smile seemed so sad and beautiful in his eyes, and it made him feel heartbroken.

However, although he was full of pity and reluctance for Jiang Yan in his heart, he knew clearly that he could not trust him wholeheartedly.

The reason was simple: he not only represented himself, but also shouldered the responsibility and mission of the entire empire. As the empire's general, every decision he made affected the future and destiny of the country.

He really didn't dare to take the risk of blindly giving Jiang Yan 100% trust based on personal emotions and selfish desires.

Because if Jiang Yan is just playing the victim to him, and he hates Jiang Yan and thinks that he is really a spy planted by the Federation, then his momentary thought may cause the entire empire to fall into an abyss of no return.

Although he was struggling in pain as if his heart was being gnawed by millions of ants, Lu Qinian knew deeply that he could never treat the future of the entire empire as a gamble and easily trust a person whose identity was full of doubts.
