Chapter 276 A Surprise in the Prison

Time passes little by little.

In other words, the prison was completely sealed off, and the outside sky was not visible. However, judging from the current situation, it was probably already dark.

"call!"

at the same time.

Inside the prison, many jailers sat on the ground in the corner, panting heavily and covered in sweat.

It's easy to guess; he was clearly exhausted.

There is nothing we can do about it.

Although the number of prisoners this time is not large, the number of jailers in the prison is also not large. Even if they take turns, it is still a very tiring job.

"grown ups?"

After the last prisoner is dealt with.

Zhao Yizheng then glanced at Ye Liuyun, who was standing to the side.

",,,"

At the moment, Ye Liuyun's attention is mainly focused on his character panel.

Ah!
There wasn't a single upgrade, nor a single extra special entry.

Tsk! It's as trash as purgatory.

"grown ups?"

Seeing that Ye Liuyun remained silent and seemed somewhat dissatisfied, Zhao Yizheng's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that he had done something wrong and displeased Ye Liuyun?

Zhao Yi immediately recalled.

But after thinking about it for a long time, I still couldn't come up with a solution.

"Ok?"

Such a call brought Ye Liuyun back to his senses.

Seeing Zhao Yi's uneasy expression, it was easy to guess what he was thinking.

He waved his hand indifferently.

"It's alright, you did a good job this time!"

There are only so many prisoners, and Zhao Yizheng's job is to manage the prisoners in the prison, not to go out and arrest prisoners. So you can't blame Zhao Yizheng!
"Keep it up!"

As he spoke, Ye Liuyun raised his hand and patted Zhao Yizheng on the shoulder.

"Yes, my lord!"

All her previous worries vanished at that moment, and she immediately responded earnestly to Ye Liuyun.

"Alright, let's go back!"

He waved his hand, indicating that since all the prisoners had been dealt with, there was no need for them to stay any longer.

Seeing that Ye Liuyun was about to leave, Zhao Yi immediately flattered Ye Liuyun and moved closer to him, ready to see him off.

,,,

Soon, Ye Liuyun led Zhao Yizheng back to the first level of the Heavenly Prison.

Upon seeing Ye Liuyun and his group, the prisoners here couldn't help but shrink back into their cells.

After all, we don't know what happened.

But they had all heard the screams of the prisoners coming from the next level of the dungeon. Now, when they saw Ye Liuyun, they seemed to have seen some ferocious beast, shrinking back as if afraid of being noticed by Ye Liuyun.

"Ok?"

Ye Liuyun originally didn't care.

But after passing the prison cells, Ye Liuyun suddenly stopped.

He looked at a prisoner who was being held in solitary confinement in a cell.

Unlike the others, this person's face showed no fear or apprehension whatsoever.

When Ye Liuyun arrived, he only glanced at the place briefly and didn't pay much attention. He didn't expect there to be a surprise hidden there.

"Target: Muzhou."

Cultivation: Acquired realm.

Talent Attributes: Supreme Fist (Gold), Extravagant Debauchery (Blue),

"The Ultimate Fist (Gold): By accumulating power, one can unleash a punch that surpasses one's own strength by several times, but there will be a brief period of weakness afterward."

"Paper and Gold Indulgence (Blue): Indulging in pleasure and having no resistance to fine wine and money."

Golden talent?

I hadn't noticed it before. And this guy named Muzhou seemed out of place among the other prisoners. Even his clothes looked much more valuable than the others.

It was obvious that he was not a refugee, but a martial artist at the acquired realm.

"Ah!"

Ye Liuyun hadn't said anything yet.

Mu Zhou, who had been stared at for so long, was the first to sneer, his eyes filled with disdain for Ye Liuyun, as if he thought that the other party would not dare to do anything to him.

They had an attitude of complete arrogance.

"???"

So arrogant?
Ye Liuyun raised an eyebrow in slight surprise, but instead of directly approaching Mu Zhou for a conversation, he looked at Zhao Yizheng beside him.

Who is this prisoner?

"Uh!"

Ye Liuyun's words made Zhao Yi stare at Mu Zhou for a while, as if he was recalling something.

Soon, Zhao Yizheng found the answer from his hazy memories.

"I remember now, sir, this person's name is Mu Zhou, and he is an outer disciple of the Mu Ling Sect!"

"Wood Spirit Sect?"

This surprised Ye Liuyun somewhat, as he had clearly heard of the Wood Spirit Sect.

It is not a sect within the territory of the Great Qian Dynasty, but it is not far from the Great Qian Dynasty. The Wood Spirit Sect has considerable influence. I heard that the sect leader is a Grandmaster-level figure, and I also heard that the Wood Spirit Sect has always been very protective of its own.

There was once a small sect that was wiped out by the Wood Spirit Sect because it killed an outer disciple of the Wood Spirit Sect.

So, this is why Namuzhou is so fearless?
"My lord, the Wood Spirit Sect is quite troublesome, so the higher-ups have ordered that Wood State be closed for a month, just as a formality!"

After all, they committed a crime.

If we don't even try to catch them, isn't that just like rubbing Daqian's face in the ground?

However, the people in the Ministry of Justice did not want to completely offend the Muling Sect because of this, so they chose to arrest Muzhou and release him after imprisoning him for a month.

These people's psychology.

Ye Liuyun could roughly guess what it was, but he didn't care.

What did he do wrong?

In comparison, Ye Liuyun was more curious about what Mu Zhou had done wrong.

If it's just some trivial matter, a month's imprisonment is fine. Talent attributes are important, but if you go so far as to indiscriminately kill innocent people for the sake of talent attributes...

So, is he the master of these talents, or are these talents the master of him?

The more one wants to wield power, the less one should be controlled by power.

"Uh!"

only.

Ye Liuyun's words made Zhao Yizheng's expression become somewhat hesitant.

He seemed to be weighing whether or not to tell Ye Liuyun. After all, knowing Ye Liuyun as he did, if he told him, Mu Zhou might not be able to survive.

"Ok?"

Seeing Zhao Yi's hesitation.

Ye Liuyun didn't say much, but frowned and glanced at him.

"My Lord!"

Zhao Yizheng, who was initially hesitant, immediately backed down when he saw Ye Liuyun's gaze.

The Wood Spirit Sect is indeed terrifying, but Ye Liuyun in front of us is equally not to be trifled with.

"When the Ministry of Justice officers arrested Mu Zhou, he was eating at a restaurant, but he refused to pay after finishing his meal."

"and then?"

Seeing Zhao Yizheng's hesitant manner, Ye Liuyun asked him directly.

If it were just about not paying for a meal, they wouldn't be acting this way.

"However, then! He not only killed everyone in the restaurant, but also stole all the money, sparing neither the old nor the children."

Is this the talent for indulging in a life of extravagance and debauchery?

Are you willing to disregard everything else for these things?

",,,"

Ye Liuyun didn't speak, but his eyes narrowed, and the air pressure around him seemed to drop.

It's at this time.

Mu Zhou, who had been relatively quiet, suddenly burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha!"

This contrasted sharply with the prisoners in the other cells around them.

The reason Mu Zhou was imprisoned on the first floor of the Heavenly Prison, and even had a separate cell, was probably because someone from the Ministry of Justice didn't want to offend the Mu Ling Sect, so they thought it would be enough to just imprison him as a formality.

“Those lowly people, they only want to eat something, yet they dare to ask me for money. Don’t they even consider their status? They’re truly despicable.”

Mokushu not only does not regret his actions.

Instead, they felt it was those people's fault. If they hadn't asked for money and had obediently handed it over, they wouldn't have killed them. What a bunch of despicable bastards!

Ye Liuyun remained silent.

However, there was something else in his eyes when he looked at Muzhou.

"My Lord!"

Others might not notice anything amiss, but Zhao Yizheng had indeed been following Ye Liuyun for some time.

With just a change in his eyes, he guessed what was going on and quickly said.

"Mu Zhou has the backing of the Mu Ling Sect, and the Mu Ling Sect is extremely protective of its own. If we execute him, it might cause some trouble!"

Ye Liuyun hadn't said anything yet.

Inside the cell, Mu Zhou's expression grew even more arrogant after hearing Zhao Yizheng's words. "Execute me? What a joke! Who dares to lay a hand on me? Who can even do it?"

"I am an outer disciple of the Wood Spirit Sect. Once I break through to the Innate Realm, I will become an inner disciple. What can you do to me? Hahahaha!"

Having connections makes all the difference; it makes you speak with a lot more confidence.

Ye Liuyun was too lazy to argue with such a person, and simply waved his hand.

"Pull it out!"

This is a direct plan to have Mu Zhou dragged out of the prison and executed.

People like this shouldn't die too easily.

"But,,"

Zhao Yizheng, standing to the side, was still a little hesitant.

However, Ye Liuyun had no intention of giving Zhao Yizheng a chance to say anything more.

"Do you think the Wood Spirit Sect is someone you can't easily deal with, and that I am one of them?"

The Wood Spirit Sect is not to be trifled with? Does that mean I'm easy to mess with?
Even if the Wood Spirit Sect only has one Grandmaster as its sect leader, Ye Liuyun wouldn't back down.

"Understood!"

Zhao Yizheng realized something at this moment.

He nodded quickly. That's right. The Wood Spirit Sect behind Zhao Yizheng is not to be trifled with, but Ye Liuyun in front of him is not to be trifled with either. He immediately gestured to his subordinates beside him.

"???"

Seeing those men dressed as jailers actually walking towards their cells, they realized that the jailers were indeed heading towards their cells.

Mu Zhou, who had been so arrogant and unrestrained, was momentarily stunned.

What's happening here?
"Wait, what are you going to do?"

She was sitting cross-legged on the ground, but now she stands up.

"I am a disciple of the Wood Spirit Sect. Do you really dare to lay a hand on me? Be careful, or my sect will punish you!"

"Oh!"

Mu Zhou was about to continue with his threats, but Ye Liuyun was no longer willing to listen.

He swung his hand and struck the cell where Mu Zhou was located.

Inside the cell.

Before Mu Zhou could finish speaking, he was blasted away by an invisible force and slammed hard against the wall behind the cell.

"puff!"

He immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

Although he possesses a gold-quality talent, in the end, he is merely a martial artist at the acquired realm.

In front of a grandmaster like Ye Liuyun, they weren't even considered small fry; they were just ants that could be dealt with with a wave of the hand. If it weren't for not wanting to let the other party die too easily...

That one palm strike could have killed Mu Zhou.

However, although he is not dead, his current situation is almost the same as that of a dead person.

"You...you actually crippled me!"

He used his hands to support himself as he stood up again.

Feel your current physical condition.

Mu Zhou looked at Ye Liuyun in disbelief, seemingly not expecting that the other party would actually dare to attack him.

Gone, my cultivation is gone.

Ye Liuyun's palm strike directly destroyed Mu Zhou's dantian. Even if his dantian recovers, it would probably take decades for him to regain his current state of cultivation.

"I'll kill you! I'll definitely kill you!"

"How dare you cripple me!"

"The Wood Spirit Sect will not let you go, the sect leader will not let you go! You're going to die! I will make sure you die!"

After the initial disbelief, Mu Zhou's expression suddenly turned manic.

He had actually been crippled. Although he was an outer disciple, Mu Zhou held a high position in the Mu Ling Sect. The main issue was his talent and cultivation level. Now, his cultivation had been crippled.

Even after returning to the Wood Spirit Sect.

I'm afraid those good days will never come again. Thinking of this, Mu Zhou clenched his fists tightly.

He stared at Ye Liuyun with a sinister gaze. It was only because his eyes couldn't kill that Ye Liuyun was dead.

"I don't know if the Wood Spirit Sect will let me go, but I certainly won't let you go!"

Ye Liuyun always felt that...

Before committing murder, one must be prepared to be killed.

Since you enjoy indiscriminately killing innocent people, then be prepared to be killed by others. Do you really think that with your limited strength, you can act with impunity?

Without saying anything more, he simply waved his hand.

The jailers around him didn't dare to hesitate. They opened the cell and dragged Mu Zhou, whose cultivation had been destroyed, off the ground like a dead dog.

The first level of the prison didn't even have any torture instruments, so they could only drag Mu Zhou along like this until they reached the second level of the prison.

"I'll kill you! I'll definitely kill you!"

"You wait for me!"

Even at this point, Mu Zhou still had a sharp tongue.

He continued to glare fiercely at Ye Liuyun, shouting as if he intended to devour Ye Liuyun alive.

That's the situation.

Ye Liuyun had clearly experienced this more than once.

So he seemed unhurried and didn't care at all.

He just followed slowly behind, and by the time Ye Liuyun reached the second level of the prison, Mu Zhou had already been locked on the rack of torture instruments.

"you,,"

Looking at Ye Liuyun coming over, Mu Zhou wanted to say something more.

But the next moment.

"Snapped!"

One lash of the whip, and the skin was torn open.

"Ahhhh!"

This pampered child had never experienced anything like this before. The sudden pain made Mu Zhou scream out.

At the same time, I was still a little dazed.

He stared at Ye Liuyun with disbelief, as if he hadn't expected that the other party would actually dare to attack him.

"You don't really think you'll survive today, do you?"

Meeting Mu Zhou's gaze, Ye Liuyun tilted his head and casually asked a question in return.

Are you still so naive even though you're an adult?

"!!!"

Mu Zhou was at a loss for words and could only stare blankly at Ye Liuyun in front of him.

In the past, Mu Zhou had provoked opponents he couldn't defeat, but as long as he revealed his identity as a disciple of the Mu Ling Sect, they didn't dare to do anything to him.

Over time, Mu Zhou became like he is now, reckless and not believing that anyone would dare to lay a hand on him.

And now.

But then someone actually appeared who didn't care at all about his background or identity.

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

Reality doesn't give Mu Zhou time to be stunned.

In that moment of silence, even after being pulled out, Mu Zhou finally experienced what it felt like to be a prisoner in the Heavenly Prison.

"That's more like what a prisoner should look like!"

Looking at Muzhou like this, Ye Liuyun grinned, feeling quite pleased.

Zhao Yizheng, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but gasp when he saw Ye Liuyun like this.

I never expected Ye Liuyun to have this side to him.

Luckily, I've behaved very well, otherwise I'd be the one tied to the torture rack and whipped right now.

Of course.

This is why Ye Liuyun didn't know Zhao Yizheng's thoughts; otherwise, he would definitely have looked at him with disdain, saying, "Sorry, you're not even worth being beaten."

"wait wait wait!"

Muzhou finally realized he was scared.

"I can give you money, I have a lot of money, let me go, I can give you all my savings!"

Over the years, Muzhou has indeed shot quite a few people.

This guy's planning to risk his life for money.

Upon hearing this, Ye Liuyun raised an eyebrow slightly and glanced at Zhao Yizheng beside him.

"Hey, I understand!"

Zhao Yizheng wasn't stupid; noticing Ye Liuyun's gaze, he immediately realized what it meant.

Mu Zhou's cultivation has been destroyed.

With the instruments of torture in the prison, Mu Zhou would be able to obediently reveal where he hid the money.

You want to spend money to buy your life?
Sorry, but I want your money, and I want your life too.

,,,

By the time Ye Liuyun emerged from the prison, it was already getting dark.

Zhao Yizheng escorted Ye Liuyun all the way out of the prison cell.

"Rest assured, sir, I will personally go to the place where Muzhou hides the money and guarantee that there will be no accidents!"

There's definitely no need for Ye Liuyun to discuss the matter of taking the money.

As for whether he was worried that Zhao Yizheng would embezzle a sum of money, all I can say is that Zhao Yizheng is a smart man. Money is important, but if you have the life to make money but not the life to spend it, that's another matter entirely.

"Ok!"

Ye Liuyun nodded, not taking it to heart; it was an unexpected delight in itself.

"Spread the word that I have killed Mu Zhou. I want to see if the Mu Ling Sect dares to come and cause me trouble. With disciples like this, I don't think the Mu Ling Sect has any reason to exist."
