Chapter 2261: Clash (2)

Qian Shang rushed to the deepest level of the prison. The moment he stepped inside, his reaction was no different from the previous guards. His eyes widened in shock as he saw Bai Ze and the others standing there, looking at him.

"Look. Isn't this our Elder Qian?" Que Zang said with a grin.

Qian Shang regained his senses and his aura erupted, attempting to flee. But how could he escape from a group of True Gods?

"Why such a hurry to leave?" Que Zang laughed and waved his hand, firmly pinning Qian Shang down.

"You better let me go, Que Zang!" Qian Shang roared angrily, his eyes filled with fear. "Why? Are you going to cry and report to your father again?" Que Zang chuckled. "Do you think I'm afraid of him? You'll be a cold, lifeless body before he can find me."

"You!" Qian Shang shuddered. He forced himself to calm down and said, "We have no grudge, right? I've never done anything to you during your stay here."

"It's true." Que Zang nodded with a smile. "On the contrary, I have some respect for your father."

Qian Shang was relieved upon hearing this. His eyes warily darted toward Bai Ze and the others. A look of puzzlement appeared on his face when his gaze landed on Yun Lintian. From everyone's posture, Yun Lintian seemed to be the center of attention. He couldn't understand what was going on, or how they had broken their chains.

Several questions appeared in Qian Shang's mind at the moment.

Que Zang looked at him and said further, "Seriously. Your background isn't weak at all. Even though you're an illegitimate descendant of the Qian Clan, the treatment you get shouldn't be bad. Why are you so greedy for wealth?"

"Hmph! It's none of your business." Qian Shang snorted coldly.

"Haha. Qian Donglai is such an honorable man. How could he give birth to a dog of a son like you?" Que Zang laughed disdainfully.

"How dare you insult me?" Qian Shang was furious. Que Zang's words were like knives piercing through his heart.

"Calm down, Young Master Qian. I understand sometimes truths hurt." Que Zang smiled.

Qian Shang was so angry that his face turned red, but he couldn't utter a word.

"Stop teasing him and let him remove the formation." Ji Xiaoman rolled her eyes annoyingly. "Impossible!" Qian Shang blurted out.

"Impossible? Why?" Que Zang looked at him curiously.

"You've misunderstood me. It's not that I don't want to, but I can't." Qian Shang quickly explained, "Once the formation has been activated, it can only be stopped by the city lord. It is a rule set up by the God of Order himself to prevent prisoners from leaving."

Que Zang frowned. "Then, how can you be so sure Chang Ke will listen to you?"

"He will." Qian Shang said in a deep voice. "The entire city has long been under the Nine Hells Gate's control."

He thought everyone would have a strong reaction, but Que Zang and the others simply exchanged glances and laughed.

"What's wrong? You don't believe me?" Qian Shang couldn't help but ask.

"Young Master Qian, now I fully understand why your father doesn't allow you to go back to the Holy Lands. You would simply damage his prestige." Ji Xiaoman covered her mouth and laughed gently, her bountiful chest trembling.

"What do you mean?" Qian Shang was frustrated.

"No wonder you dared to be so corrupt here. It turns out you're just stupid." Que Zang chuckled. "Do you think Chang Ke is stupid? Everything you, including those Nine Hells Gate minions, have done all these years is definitely within his sight."

"Impossi...ble." Qian Shang suddenly realized something. When he first accepted bribes, he was so afraid that Chang Ke would take action against him. However, as time passed, Chang Ke remained silent, and Qian Shang believed it was because of his father's influence. Hence, he became bolder.

Now, Qian Shang began to realize how stupid he was. He had simply gotten carried away by his greed. If Chang Ke was incompetent, how could he become the city lord who guarded the gate to the Holy Lands?

"Finally woke up?" Que Zang grinned. "Let's go. There must be a good show outside."

He waved his hand and brought Qian Shang away.

Ji Xiaoman looked at Yun Lintian and said softly, "Little brother, stop studying that for now. Let's go with us."

Yun Lintian hesitated briefly and followed everyone out.

Outside the Divine Light Cousin building, a fierce battle took place. Huang Xian and Tang Xun exchanged blows, and neither came out on top. Meanwhile, Chang Ke and Hu Yong calmly presided over the battle between their subordinates.

Hu Yong looked at the battle below with an impatient expression. He turned to Yin Ye and asked, "What are you waiting for?"

"Wait for a moment." Yin Ye responded calmly. His gaze fixated on the Divine Light Cousin building.

At this moment, Que Zang and the others had already arrived on the rooftop.

"Hah! I almost couldn't remember how the sky looked." Que Zang looked at the bright sky with a smile. This was the freedom he yearned for.

"Ah, this smell." Ji Xiaoman took a deep breath and closed her eyes, savoring the smell of freedom.

Yun Lintian looked at the battle in the sky and finally at Yin Ye. Their gazes met.

Yin Ye said with a smile, "I knew you could do it. Hehe. You're definitely the most talented person I've ever met."

Yun Lintian frowned slightly and soon realized something. Everything had been within Yin Ye's plan. Yin Ye first sent him to the prison to see whether he could break the chain... but why? Just to test his comprehension ability?

Hu Yong glanced at Yun Lintian briefly and turned to look at Bai Ze. "It seems you have been living well down there."

"You shouldn't implicate others." Bai Ze calmly responded.

"Heh. Don't try to talk about morals here. It sounds ridiculous, especially coming from you."

Hu Yong chuckled amusingly.

Huang Xian blasted Tong Xun away and took time to look at Yun Lintian. He was relieved to see the young man safe and sound.

"I'm sorry for causing you trouble, Grandpa Huang." Yun Lintian said gently.

Huang Xian shook his head. "I should be the one who said this. I could have taken you out of

the prison a long time ago."

Yun Lintian didn't say anything, but his mind spun rapidly. What were the true intentions of

these people?

"They came for me."
