Divine & Bizarre: Increasing Points to Invincibility-Chapter 223 - 124: Daoist Priest Fan Locked Up! A Mouse Enters the Grain Bin! (10,000-word Mega - , Please Subscribe)_6
"I heard my father mention that the Fu Clan’s family heritage at the Nanjun Prefecture Government can be traced back eight or nine hundred years."
Yun Jiuqing stroked her chin, murmuring to herself, "So that Hundred Households official who’s in cahoots with the merchants is actually the second son of Old Master Fu? Hiss! Could it be that the Fu Clan is behind Xin Feng Building?"
She inhaled sharply.
Shock was written all over her face!
Because Yun Jiuqing suddenly realized that the waters at Xin Feng Building were deeper than she had imagined.
Although Yun Jiuqing was curious as to how Daoist Priest Fan knew the identity of that Hundred Households official, she then thought that it was perfectly normal for Daoist Priest Fan to know—because he was Daoist Priest Fan!
The matter that now occupied her mind even more was the Fu Clan of the Nanjun Prefecture Government—what exactly did they want to do?
They supported Xin Feng Building, a disaster for the people...
What was their purpose?
To absorb the yang energy of the living...
For what reason?
The more Yun Jiuqing thought about it, the more alarmed she became inside.
She felt that these matters were no longer something she could handle. This was no longer a simple case of hunting and killing malevolent spirits.
She needed to inform her father, to let her father take decisive action against that Hundred Households official, against that Fu Clan...
With heavy fists!
Just as such an idea flashed through Yun Jiuqing’s mind, she suddenly saw Daoist Priest Fan stand up next to her, his robust and towering figure always capable of delivering a great shock to her no matter the occasion.
"Daoist Priest Fan, what are you about to do?" Yun Jiuqing faintly guessed something and quickly stood up, weakly asking.
Fan Wu grinned, "To help the Qintian Judiciary a bit, to ’cleanse’ the malice within the dungeon somewhat."
"What? But we are being detained, and there are shackles on our hands, the shackles..." The rest of Yun Jiuqing’s words were stuck in her throat, unable to be uttered.
Because she watched, wide-eyed, as Daoist Priest Fan simply pulled at his shackles with a gentle tug of his hands.
She seriously doubted whether Daoist Priest Fan had even put in any effort with that tug.
Then...
Clang!
The black iron shackles made of mysterious iron broke apart on cue, as if they were just as fragile as something made of clay.
Holy moly!
Yun Jiuqing tried to struggle herself, but the shackles on her wrists were still secure. Then, she saw Daoist Priest Fan suddenly grab the shackles in her hands.
Before she could even react, Fan Wu pinched the shackles with two fingers, hardly exerting any effort.
Clang!
The shackles.
Broke.
"This this this..." Yun Jiuqing bulged her eyes out, unknowing how many times today she had made them so wide. She really wanted to maintain some composure, not to be constantly startled.
But she couldn’t control herself!
The strength that Daoist Priest Fan possessed was too outrageous, wasn’t it? It was quite usual for these mystical iron shackles to be resistant to knives and spears.
Their purpose was to restrain cultivators, or some pretty formidable malevolent spirits.
Yet, these so-called mystical iron shackles, in the hands of Daoist Priest Fan.
Didn’t seem like much!
Fan Wu, who casually broke Yun Jiuqing’s shackles, paid no mind to her astonished expression but instead cast his tranquil gaze towards the iron bars in front.
Fan Wu reached out to grab one of the bars, thicker than an ordinary person’s wrist, and pulled it back slightly.
Creak—
To the grating sound, the iron bar was forcibly bent by Fan Wu into a severe curve!
Fan Wu then started to bend the thick bars one by one, appearing still effortless throughout the process.
All within the Qintian Judiciary Dungeon...
Could not confine him!
After stepping out from the confines of the cell, Fan Wu stood in a gloomy, damp corridor, where the uneven floor faintly showed dried traces of blood.
A moldy stench lingered in the air.
If ordinary people were to walk here even once, not falling ill afterward would be impossible.
On both sides of the corridor, walls were inscribed with talismanic scripts and plastered with talisman papers.
It looked quite mystical and creepy.
Chilling to the bone.
At the very bottom of this large dungeon, there were no Qintian Judiciary guards, and it was uncertain whether this bottom layer was too dangerous,
Or because the Hundred Households officer of the Qintian Judiciary temporarily drew away the guards from this place.
Fan Wu walked at a leisurely pace toward a certain direction.
Before long,
he arrived in front of a cell in the next block, his gaze passing through the sturdy Black Iron cell door and settling on a horrifying and bizarre creature.
The creature was enormous.
It stood over ten feet tall.
Its huge body was crammed into the tiny cell, appearing rather constrained. It also emitted a strong aura of ill omen, looking extremely formidable.
"Is this one of the mysterious creatures captured by the Qintian Judiciary?" Yun Jiuqing’s eyes widened in shock as she spoke out loud.
Upon hearing the noise, the creature suddenly opened its enormous eyes!
Those bloodshot eyes stared intensely at Fan Wu and Yun Jiuqing, as if wishing to tear them into pieces.
It was clear it had mistaken them for members of the Qintian Judiciary.
The fierce aura of the creature stunned Yun Jiuqing, making her feel stiff all over; she became even more terrified, "Just its presence is so oppressive; I’m afraid there’s more than one such creature in the dungeons of the Qintian Judiciary, isn’t there?"
Fan Wu didn’t react as exaggeratedly as she did.
[Creature imprisoned in the Qintian Judiciary Dungeon of Nanjun Prefecture Government – Life: 1100 – Power: 45 – Skills...]
"Indeed..."
Fan Wu smirked and said, "The creatures in the Qintian Judiciary Dungeon are much purer than the wronged spirits and evil ghosts in Xin Feng Building. This trip into the dungeon is truly worth it."
Fan Wu did not have the Demon-slaying Sword on him. Although the people from the Qintian Judiciary had not searched him, such an ostentatiously large sword couldn’t possibly have gone unnoticed by them.
He didn’t mind this too much; after all, he would just go and get it back later.
And the City God’s Command in Fan Wu’s possession had not been taken by the Qintian Judiciary.
He pinched the City God’s Command that was given to him by the City God of Yinghe Prefecture.
Under the shocked and fearful gaze of the creature in the cell, Fan Wu threw out the City God’s Command with a flick of his hand.
The City God’s Command turned into a streak of red light.
It entered the body of the creature.
"Hssssssss!!!" The pain, akin to a soul being torn apart, caused the creature’s eyes to fill with even more bloodshot streaks, and it let out an agonizing, excruciating scream.
The next moment,
the astonishing force of the City God’s Command exploded inside its body, wreaking havoc, causing the creature’s body to uncontrollably expand, with cracks emanating red light starting to appear on its skin surface.
Instantly—Boom!!!!
The creature’s massive body burst apart, and the City God’s Command, emitting a faint red glow, fell next to the solid Black Iron cell door.
[You have successfully killed the "Creature imprisoned in the Qintian Judiciary Dungeon of Nanjun Prefecture Government," congratulations on obtaining Free Attribute Points: 0.4!]
Isn’t this more than the Free Attribute Points that burst out from the wronged spirits and evil ghosts in Xin Feng Building? One single creature could be worth dozens of wronged spirits and evil ghosts!
And inside the Qintian Judiciary Dungeon...
There was more than one such creature!
...
Meanwhile,
Back in the upper levels where the Qintian Judiciary resided, the Hundred Households officer, who had ordered Fan Wu and Yun Jiuqing to be put into the dungeon, had returned.
As soon as he arrived back, one of his subordinates reported to him, "Hundred Households Sir, the two thieves have been thrown into the bottommost level of the dungeon! Their cow has also been tied up near the dungeon. Our men are inspecting the belongings on the cow."
"However..." the subordinate hesitated.
The Hundred Households officer frowned upon hearing this and asked, "However what?"
The subordinate quickly responded, "However, that tall cultivator has a very strange large sword. It looks a lot like the Demon-slaying Sword of the True Martial Emperor. And none of our people can lift that sword; it’s quite bizarre."
"Hm?" The Hundred Households officer was taken aback, "That must be some kind of Magic Artifact, right?"
He shook his head, "Just a Magic Artifact; without someone to use it, it’s useless no matter how special it is."
Then, the Hundred Households officer continued, "Find some trustworthy people to accompany me down to the dungeon." 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
"Yes, Sir!"
However, just as the two were speaking, the ground beneath their feet suddenly began to tremble lightly. This immediately heightened their alertness to the extreme.
The Hundred Households officer looked down in astonishment, a bad feeling welling inside him, unsettling his mind: "This is... A disturbance from inside the dungeon? How could there be such a strange disturbance? There never has been such a thing before!"
"Just today, we brought in two thieves... Hm?"
"Not good!!"
He suddenly realized something, his expression changing drastically: "It’s those two thieves!"
"..."
