Chapter 85: To the Sky Prison
Seeing Hu Yanxiao's death, Su Qianqian couldn't help frowning, and asked, "How did he become like this?"
Mo Xiu didn't answer but raised his hand to muster the True Fire, burning Hu Yanxiao's body to nothingness.
Su Qianqian did not delve into it and then said, "He is a disciple of the Seraphic Sword Sect. Will it be okay after you killed him like this?"
"There are only people I don't want to kill; no people I dare not kill," Mo Xiu responded indifferently.
"..."
Su Qianqian opened her mouth briefly, but not knowing what to say.
It was not the first time that she heard Mo Xiu say this sentence, and Mo Xiu had been practicing this sentence with actions, but because of this, she felt shocked.
This guy did whatever he wanted, but was Mo Xiu really not afraid at all?
Before, he killed Cao Yang, and the offending person was Yan Wuji, and although Yan Wuji was powerful, she could guess that there was still some limit to it. But now, it was the disciple of the Seraphic Sword Sect who was killed, and the one who Mo Xiu offended was the Seraphic Sword Sect.
The Seraphic Sword Sect was the same as the Alchemy League, and even stronger than the Alchemy League. Their horror of strength was simply unimaginable. Under such circumstances, he could still kill Hu Yanxiao without frowning?
Was it because Mo Xiu's strength was so strong that he didn't even need to pay attention to Seraphic Sword Sect, or was Mo Xiu's heart really so big that he had already looked down on life and death so that it did not matter whether he offended the Seraphic Sword Sect or not?
"Let's go, go to the next place," Mo Xiu glanced back at Su Qianqian.
Su Qianqian hurriedly stepped forward, clutching Mo Xiu's clothes, and again, following Mo Xiu step by step.
After walking for a while, Su Qianqian suddenly realized that something was wrong, "This is not the way to leave the palace, right?"
"No," Mo Xiu shook his head slightly.
"Where are we going?" Su Qianqian asked quickly.
"Sky Prison," Mo Xiu replied.
The imperial palace was naturally heavily guarded, but there were still a few places that were even stricter: one was the emperor's palace, one was the imperial Scripture Pavilion, and the last was the Sky Prison.
None of the prisoners in the Sky Prison were ordinary prisoners, they were once important members of the court or the army, or they were extremely evil.
Of course, Mo Xiu entered the prison not to save the wicked people, but to take away the important members of the court or the army in the prison. After all, those people had a possibility of being loyal and would become Yan Ran's supporters in the future.
...
After a while, Mo Xiu and Su Qianqian came to the outside of the prison.
However, in front of the entrance, someone was already waiting for them outside the prison.
Not one person, but two people, they looked almost exactly the same, obviously twins. More importantly, the two people's cultivation realm and the aura on their bodies were also exactly the same, both were in the Late-stage of the Spirit Vessel Realm, and they seemed to have practiced the same technique too.
"We've been waiting for you for a long time, you actually dared to kill junior brother Hu Yanxiao, you brat really have a brave heart!" the man standing on the left among the twins said.
The person on the right said nothing and looked at Mo Xiu with a high spirit of wanting to fight.
Mo Xiu looked at the two and asked, "Who are you again?"
"Seraphic Sword Sect, Wang Feng."
"Seraphic Sword Sect, Wang Chan."
The two reported their names.
The person on the left was Wang Feng, and the person on the right was Wang Chan.
It was hard to distinguish by looks, not to mention the breath on their bodies which were also exactly the same. Even the sword in his hand was exactly the same from color to shape, but there was one difference: Wang Feng held the sword with his left hand, and Wang Chan held the sword with his right hand. It was not difficult to distinguish with this particular specification.
Wang Feng also said more. After reporting his name, he said, "Coming to the Sky Prison, do you want the prisoners in the prison to cover your escape?" then he shook his head, "it's useless, with us, you don't even want to enter the Sky Prison, let alone escape from the palace!"
"Escape from the palace?"
Mo Xiu shook his head slightly, and looked farther away, "You should come together to deal with me, but you two are not worthy to play me."
"Really? You are really arrogant and unpleasant, but since junior brother Yanxiao died in your hands, it shows that you still have some strength, it is not a complete bluff."
As Wang Feng said, he sneered, "Even so, this is your final destination. Whenever our two brothers join forces, no one could escape, and neither could you!"
After speaking, the sword in his hand and Wang Chan's sword moved lightly, it looked quite a bit like a combination of two swords.
As a sword blaze flashed, the figures of the two disappeared, and they rushed to Mo Xiu sprightly.
Su Qianqian behind Mo Xiu was shocked because the speed of the two of them seemed to be much faster than Hu Yanxiao that Mo Xiu killed before.
The two people's cultivation base was stronger, therefore, when the two of them worked together, the attacking power would definitely be more rapid and stronger, so could Mo Xiu really defeat these two people?
Between the electric light and flint, an indiscernible force swept away, and the impulse of the two people's joint was instantly disintegrated. Although they were not rendered immobile, their speed was slowed down a lot.
Before the two of them could rush to Mo Xiu again, Mo Xiu had already opened the Profound Yellow Combat Body, used the Everlasting Instant Shadow Step, and rushed towards the two of them with the Abyss Demon Sword in his hand.
"Puff…"
Mo Xiu directly cut Wang Feng and Wang Chan in the waist, making scarlet blood ooze out of their bodies.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
The two fell to the ground, but did not die immediately, but struggled feebly, the eyes looking at Mo Xiu were full of shock.
Mo Xiu muttered a formula silently, and the Abyss Demon Sword pierced Wang Feng's heart.
Wang Feng's cheek twitched fiercely, blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, and he smiled sadly, "So, it turns out that you still have this method, our… seniors... will avenge us, you won't be rampant for long!"
As soon as his voice descended, a gloomy light wrapped him up, and when the gloomy light subsided, there was only one corpse left.
"Big brother!"
Wang Chan called softly, his voice a little sad.
Mo Xiu didn't make Wang Chan sad for long, the Abyss Demon Sword fell on Wang Chan's body, and in the blink of an eye, he became another corpse.
When the light converged, Mo Xiu burned the bodies of the two with his True Fire, and then said to Su Qianqian, "Let's enter the prison."
Su Qianqian didn't seem to be relieved from the surprise regarding the fact that Wang Feng and Wang Chan were easily killed by Mo Xiu. She was stunned, and she just uttered an "Oh" sound before she was dragged into the prison by Mo Xiu.
Wang Feng and Wang Chan were naturally not the guards of the Sky Prison; the real guards were in the Sky Prison.
However, even Wang Feng and Wang Chan couldn't stop Mo Xiu, and thus, the guards in the prison were even less likely to be able to stop Mo Xiu.
Mo Xiu didn't bother to do it himself, he let the eight Shadow Demon Guards soar out, killing the guards of the Sky Prison.
"What the h…"
"Argh…"
"Help m…"
Countless guards fell to the ground screaming.
Some guards were unwilling to be slaughtered on one side. They either opened the prison door and tried to hide with the prisoners, or kneeled to Mo Xiu to beg for mercy, or lay on the ground and pretended to be dead, and some fled to the depths of the prison.
Mo Xiu took Su Qianqian and the eight Shadow Demon Guards all the way in, and soon came outside a row of special cells.
"Are there any of these people you know?" Mo Xiu turned around and asked.
Su Qianqian was taken aback for a moment, and shook her head slightly, "I don't know, I have to take a look first."
It was normal. After all, the prisoners in the prison were unkempt, and they were totally different from what they were when they were outside. Even if Su Qianqian really knew them, she still couldn't tell at a glance who was whom.
Mo Xiu was not in a hurry, let Su Qianqian identify them one by one.
It took a while before Su Qianqian said, "I have dealt with three people. But I have never dealt with the other five, however, I have seen them from a distance. They are all former important members of the court or the army."
Mo Xiu asked Su Qianqian to point out one by one, swinging a sword to cut off the lock on the cell, and let the Shadow Demon Guard catch the people out.
"Are we going to take them away?" Su Qianqian was somewhat surprised, not knowing why Mo Xiu came to Sky Prison to rescue these people.
Before, Wang Feng said that Mo Xiu wanted to let the prisoners in the prison cover them to escape, for this guess, Su Qianqian was more agreeable, and always thought it was such a thing.
Only now did she realize that this was not the case. Taking such eight people away, not to mention covering them to escape from the palace, might become a burden to them.
Mo Xiu nodded and said nothing.
However, one of the eight prisoners abruptly said, "Are you going to take us away? Don't be kidding, I don't plan to go out with you to die!"
Mo Xiu turned to look at the speaker and found that it was a middle-aged man who was a little rough.
"His name is Wu Qingshan. He was originally the commander of the Yan Capital Forbidden Army and the confidant of the former emperor. I don't know why Yan Wuji didn't kill him after he took the position but instead sent him into the Sky Prison," Su Qianqian whispered to Mo Xiu.
Although he was not killed, Wu Qingshan's life was obviously not going well. His hands and feet had been cut off. Among the eight people, he was the dirtiest and smelliest on him, and he was still rebellious.
Mo Xiu glanced at Wu Qingshan, not angry, but said, "Since you are in my hand, your life and death are in my control too, so it is not your turn to refuse."
"No! I refuse! You let me go, let me go..." Wu Qingshan called out reluctantly.
"Shut up!"
Mo Xiu raised his hand to strike Wu Qingshan with a seal, blocking Wu Qingshan's ability to speak.
After that, he gestured to Su Qianqian's eyes, and together with Su Qianqian, he left the Sky Prison with eight Shadow Demon Guards and eight prisoners.
Eight prisoners, one Shadow Demon Guard for two of them, so four Shadow Demon Guards were enough, the remaining four Shadow Demon Guards were still guarding the surroundings by Mo Xiu and Su Qianqian.
Not long after leaving the prison, another figure stopped Mo Xiu and the others.
This time, it was a cultivator in the Great Perfection-stage of the Spirit Vessel Realm. As for the expert in the Profound Spirit Realm who resided in the imperial palace, he had not shown up yet.
Mo Xiu's cultivation was only on the peak level of the Core Formation Realm, so he was somewhat reluctant to deal with the cultivator in the Great Perfection-stage of the Spirit Vessel Realm, but he did not back down, but took two steps forward, called out the Abyss Demon Sword, and looked at the man in front of him coldly.
