Chapter 313 - 313 Eight Gates of Spirit Suppression (1)
313 Eight Gates of Spirit Suppression (1)
“I’ve heard of this guy. My transformation technique seems to have came from him.”
Song s.h.i.+ felt that it was quite a coincidence. When he disguised himself and sneaked into the Imperial City, he encountered Thousand Faces, who was also disguised.
“No wonder when we saw this woman just now, she wasn’t restrained and was still eating freely. She was probably disguised as a jailer by Thousand Faces.”
Bai Yu’er was enlightened, “However, no matter how powerful he is, he can’t compare to your invisibility and Array Formation techniques, Young Master.”
“Everyone has their advantages and disadvantages. It’s safe for us to be invisible, but we can’t do much.”
Song s.h.i.+ looked at the two disguised people. “Change the plan and follow them. We should get in touch with this Thousand Faces.”
The two of them hid in the dark and followed silently.
Ahead, the two men stopped and looked back.
“Sea Maiden, why do I feel like I’m being watched?”
Thousand Faces had a suspicious expression. The jailer he was disguised as was a bearded man in a green uniform. He had a short knife and a blood-colored token hanging at his waist. The token had the word ‘Earth’ engraved on it.
“You feel that way too?”
The prison guard, disguised by the woman beside him, looked gloomy. “Could it be that we’ve been discovered?”
“I don’t think so. If we have been discovered, it wouldn’t have been so quiet. Unless they are trying to catch a big fish.”
Thousand Faces frowned. “Let’s hope it’s just our suspicions. Even if there’s really someone watching in secret, since things have come to this, we can only brace ourselves and walk out.”
“Yes, let’s get out of here first. I’ve stayed in this G.o.dforsaken place long enough. I have to get out even if I die.”
The woman called Sea Maiden by Thousand Faces had a face full of hatred and fear.
They sped up. Along the way, they encountered some prison guards, but Thousand Faces dealt with them.
“These two guys aren’t simple. At the very least, their senses are very sharp. Don’t go so near to them.”
Song s.h.i.+ knew that he could not get too close. Otherwise, they would be one hundred percent sure that someone was watching them.
After following them for fifteen minutes, Song s.h.i.+ realized that Thousand Faces was indeed a spy. He was very familiar with the situation inside the Heavenly Prison, and the path he took was much shorter than when they came.
After fooling the various checkpoints, Thousand Faces brought the Sea Maiden directly to the exit of the Heavenly Prison. Strands of morning light scattered down from outside, making the eyes of the Sea Maiden, who had not seen the outside for a long time, light up with desire.
However, in front of the last exit, a visible Array Formation barrier sealed off the inside and outside. No less than ten guards stood silently. Only the commander beside him looked rather relaxed.
“Commander Zhang, we’ve applied for a monthly family visit leave. Please let us go, Brother Zhang.”
Thousand Faces immediately smiled and was extremely polite.
“Brother He, the higher-ups have been very strict recently. If there’s no need, it’s best not to leave the Heavenly Prison, in case something happens.”
The commander guarding the door glanced at the two of them lazily and did not notice anything amiss.
“The children in my brother’s family and mine are newborns. We both want to see the children.”
Thousand Faces cursed in his heart as he handed over a cloth bag. “Commander, please be magnanimous. Use this to treat our brothers to some wine.”
When the commander saw the bulging cloth bag, a smile appeared on his face. He accepted it skillfully and teased, “That’s better. Go back and take a look more often. If your son doesn’t look like you, you will know earlier, haha.”
He waved. “Open the temporary exit.”
“Thank you, brothers. You’ve worked hard.”
Thousand Faces smiled and bade farewell. He and the Sea Maiden successfully walked out of the Heavenly Prison, along with Song s.h.i.+ and Bai Yu’er.
Outside the entrance was a cold and gloomy palace that looked abandoned. Walking out was a bamboo forest. The morning sun shone down, and the plants looked sickly. When the wind blew, fallen leaves flew.
Without another word, both sides quickly pa.s.sed through the bamboo forest and arrived at the moat on the west side of the Imperial City. Beside the river was a city wall that was more than a hundred meters tall, like a behemoth lying dormant.
They continued to leave a little and arrived at a safe area. Only then did the Sea Maiden let out a sharp laugh with a slightly deranged expression. “I’m finally out. Those Qian b.a.s.t.a.r.ds have tortured me for so many years. I’ll make them pay the price!”
“You should go back and cooperate with the Sect Master and the others as soon as possible. Some of the guys over there need you to lead them, and two of my ident.i.ties in the Heavenly Prison have been destroyed at once. It will take a lot of time to recover them.”
Thousand Faces interrupted Sea Maiden’s ruthless words.
“How many mutants have you cultivated over the years?”
“You’ll know when you get back. Cut the c.r.a.p and leave quickly. The Heavenly Prison will discover you at any time.”
Thousand Faces was impatient.
“Then I’m leaving. Thank you for your help this time.”
The Sea Maiden turned around and rushed out. She stuck close to the ground and left, without rising into the air.
Seeing the Sea Maiden leave, Thousand Faces muttered, “If not for the lack of people over there and Emperor Qian being busy with something, I wouldn’t have taken the risk to save you from the Heavenly Prison.”
He turned around and wanted to leave from the other side, but he realized that there was another person with him. Song s.h.i.+ had already appeared and was waiting sideways.
Thousand Faces felt his hair stand on end. He squinted his eyes and looked at Song s.h.i.+’s side profile. “Looks like I didn’t sense wrongly. There are really people watching. Since you didn’t make a move, you shouldn’t be a lackey of Great Qian.”
“I have two things to ask you. One is to ask for information and the other is to ask for your transformation divine art.”
Song s.h.i.+ said calmly, “As for the remuneration, you can request anything.”
Thousand Faces sneered, “I don’t know you. Why should I do these two things for you?”
“Because we’re much stronger than you.”
Bai Yu’er appeared on the other side. As her charming voice fell, the surrounding temperature suddenly dropped, making one feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
