I Transmigrated As A Prison Guard And Suppressed The Princess-Chapter 40 - Why Are You Guys Here?

After finishing the meal,

the Crimson Cetan wanted to return to Xiao Ran’s arm but was stopped.

“There’s no hurry,” Xiao Ran said. 𝘧𝑟𝘦𝒆w𝚎𝙗nov𝘦𝗹.𝐜o𝓶

“Is there anything else?”

With a flip of his hand, the Empyrean Conflagration Holy Fire appeared in his palm. He looked at the Crimson Cetan with a wide grin. “Spit out some of your Crimson Cetan Holy Fire.”

The Crimson Cetan’s expression froze. He was so shocked that he almost toppled over. “No! This is my elemental life flame. Once it’s lost, my vital energy will also suffer.”

“Well thought out.” Xiao Ran nodded.

The destructive sword intent burst forth. As the formless sword energy converged, it took the form of a gigantic sword and hung menacingly behind the terrified demon.

A keen and sharp sword aura locked onto the hapless demon.

The Crimson Cetan walked up with a forced smile. “I haven’t finished speaking! As long as you give me some time, the depleted vital energy can be restored.”

There was no free lunch in this world.

He spewed out the Crimson Cetan Holy Fire and it fused it with the Empyrean Conflagration Holy Fire.

Previously, after the Empyrean Conflagration Holy Fire devoured the power of the Crimson Devil Sky Fire, its power doubled. Now that it had absorbed the Crimson Cetan Holy Fire, it had become even more powerful.

When the Crimson Cetan finally became weak and debilitated, Xiao Ran put away the Empyrean Conflagration Holy Fire.

“You’re very sensible.”

“As long as you are satisfied.” Turning into a streak of red light, the Crimson Cetan hurriedly shot back into his wrist.

Xiao Ran then turned off the lights and went to sleep.

Late at night,

a group of uninvited guests appeared outside his courtyard.

The leader was called Green Dragnet, Malevolent Earth’s right-hand woman.

“This is the place?” Green Dragnet asked incredulously.

“98 Jingwen Square. Yes, this is the right place,” the subordinate replied.

“A mere dungeon guard, newly transferred into the Divine Sword Guards for less than three days, yet he could afford a house in the capital city’s flourishing area. This guy has been quite greedy!” Green Dragnet’s eyes burned with envy. f𝗿e𝙚𝘸e𝐛𝚗𝐨𝙫𝚎𝙡.c𝒐𝐦

“After we take him down, you guys can search the place and take all the money.”

She raised her right hand and was about to give the order to attack.

Light footsteps could be heard distinctly in the darkness.

When she saw who it was, Green Dragnet furrowed her brows in displeasure. “Why are you here?”

The newly arrived guy was of the same rank as her. “I went to investigate that guy, Little Zhou. He actually hid his ass in the Divine Sword Guards headquarters and didn’t come out.”

Two more groups of people emerged from the darkness as if they had discussed this beforehand.

Good Lord.

The Four Guardian Deities under Malevolent Earth’s command had all arrived.

“Why are all of you here?” Green Dragnet glared at all of them with a cold steely gaze.

“You think I want to? Li Heng is half-dead and still lying deep inside the Sacred Martial Bureau.”

“Shen Yiming is in the same condition as him. Although he is still alive, he is seriously injured this time. He is hiding in the Divine Sword Guards headquarters to recuperate.”

Green Dragnet felt as if she had been screwed over.

After some discussion, they reached an agreement.

The four of them would share the reward for retrieving the ‘Celestial Varg Guards’ manual equally.

They would also split all the money found inside the house equally.

They then entered the courtyard and rounded to the backyard.

Inside the room,

sensing the movement in the yard, Xiao Ran woke up from his deep sleep.

While he slept, his spiritual soul energy covered the entire dwelling compound. Not even the slightest movement could escape his auditory sense.

“So many people? Are they all here for me?”

He got off the bed and walked outside.

Outside the room,

Green Dragnet and the other three looked at each other and nodded. They gave the order for their men to take action.

Squeak!

Before their subordinates could rush in, the door opened and Xiao Ran walked out.

“Wow, it’s quite lively! There are so many people here!”

“Eh! How did you notice?” Green Dragnet asked in shock.

“This is my home. If I don’t even know when guests have arrived in my own home, I would have died many times by now,” Xiao Ran said.

One Guardian Deity came forward and said impatiently, “Why are you talking so much nonsense with him? Take him down and make him spill the whereabouts of the ‘Celestial Varg Guards’ manual.”

Green Dragnet took a step forward, confident that they had the advantage here. “Are you going to hand over the ‘Celestial Varg Guards’ manual voluntarily, or do you want us to help you recall?”

Xiao Ran expressed surprise. “The ‘Celestial Varg Guards’ manual is in Qin Fangzhen’s hands. It should have been handed over to Emperor Sheng Wen by now. If you want it, you can go to the palace to get it.”

The Four Guardian Deities’ eyes blazed with anticipation.

Previously, they suspected that Xiao Ran wouldn’t know anything about the ‘Celestial Varg Guards’ manual.

Now there was no doubt that he definitely knew of its existence.

“Have you looked through the ‘Celestial Varg Guards’ manual?” Green Dragnet asked again.

“It’s quite interesting, but it’s not worth mentioning. The Celestial Varg Guards that are nurtured using secret techniques can only wreak havoc at the Connate Realm level. They are not even advanced enough to deal with those at the Master Realm,” Xiao Ran said.

“You’ve really read it?” Green Dragnet asked excitedly.

She had searched far and wide for it, now it was within her reach without the need to expend any effort.

“What do you know? Before the Celestial Varg Guards have established their organizational structure, they are indeed not scary. Once their numbers reach a certain level, they will have the ability to even take on a Grand Master,” Green Dragnet explained imperiously.

“The price is too high.” Xiao Ran shook his head.

“Are you going to hand it over or not?”

“What’s your relationship with the Massacre Matchmaker?”

When she heard that,

Green Dragnet’s face clouded over as she retorted scornfully, “She’s just a piece of trash! She took our money but can’t even do anything properly.”

“Now I understand.” Xiao Ran nodded.

“I’ll ask you one last time. Are you going to hand it over or not?”

“I’ve already told you. The thing is with Emperor Sheng Wen. If you want it, you have to go to the palace.”

Green Dragnet laughed out malevolently, “I’m giving you a chance, yet you refuse to take it!”

A group of subordinates rushed forward.

“I don’t want to dirty my house,” Xiao Ran said.

Green Dragnet and the other three were stunned. Without waiting for them to open their mouths, immense spiritual soul energy gushed out. In tandem with this Xiao Ran mobilized the Inescapable Heaven and Earth Web which covered the sky, trapping all of them in fell swoop.

He brought them out of the courtyard and dropped them down at an abandoned dilapidated courtyard.

His spiritual soul energy transformed into sharp blades that slashed them to death. Other than Green Dragnet, everyone else was killed, including the other three Guardian Deities.

Thump!

Green Dragnet knelt on the ground with prescient speed, “My Lord, I was wrong, please don’t kill me!”

The Four Guardian Deities were all Level 1 Grand Masters. In front of this character, they could offer up no resistance at all. They were killed with simply a wave of his hands. He could even fly through the air with them in tow. This was something that only an ancient monster at the Earth Realm level could do.

“Who are you guys? Do you still have any accomplices in the capital city?” Xiao Ran asked.

“My name is Green Dragnet, and I am an assassin of the Yama group. I have come here on the orders of Lord Malevolent Earth to retrieve the ‘Celestial Varg Guards’ manual.” Green Dragnet spilled everything like pouring beans. She did not even need torture to reveal everything she knew.

Even the location of their rendezvous at the Northern Boulevard, the Scholar Provisions Shop, was mentioned.

“This middleman takes money but doesn’t do her job. She even betrayed the privacy of her customers.” Xiao Ran made a mental note of the address.

“My Lord, I’ve already told you everything I know. Can I leave now?”

“Let me send you on your way!”

“There’s no need to trouble you, my Lord. I can do it myself.” Green Dragnet jumped in fright.

“It’s no trouble,” Xiao Ran replied.

With a flick of his finger, the surrounding blades composed of spiritual soul energy instantly killed her.

The Golden Tome of Creation flipped open to a page and revealed the crimes of these people. It then displayed three items: one million Mastery Points, fifty years of Martial Arts evolution, and Basilisk’s Touch (Heaven-rank Low-grade Spiritual Skill).

There were so many of them, and even the weakest among them was at the Connate Realm level. It was perfect when they were added together.

On the other hand, the ‘Basilisk’s Touch’ was a very special skill.

Effect: Petrify the target and forcefully seal it.

It was very powerful indeed.
