554 Untitled (2)

Shadow Thirteen was indeed thrown into the mass grave back then. Seventeen or eighteen half-sacrificial soldiers were abandoned with him. They were splashed with kerosene and only the sound of their bodies being burned was left when they were burned.

Shadow Thirteen was the only one who escaped, but he did not last long as the poison took effect. He lay by the roadside and waited for death. At this moment, Yan Jiuchao passed by him.

Yan Jiuchao squatted down and asked him, “Do you know how to fight?”

“Yes.” He said.

“Are you afraid of killing people?”

“I’m not afraid.” He said.

He was picked up by Yan Jiuchao. Yan Jiuchao ordered someone to treat his poisonous pill, and then he naturally became Yan Jiuchao’s secret guard.

They were both sacrificial soldiers from the sacrificial soldiers camp, but Shadow Six was much luckier than Shadow Thirteen.

Shadow Six was originally trained as a scout and did not suffer much, nor did he swallow the poisonous pill. He came out to do a mission, but he got lost and could not return. He sat by the roadside with a money jar and cried.

That was the first time Shadow Thirteen had seen a sacrificial soldier cry. He looked so silly.

In fact, Shadow Six was a proper sacrificial soldier. He came from a higher background than Shadow Thirteen, but Shadow Six did not look like a sacrificial soldier. There was no killing intent in his eyes, and his heart was pure.

After Shadow Thirteen alighted from the carriage, he no longer deliberately restrained his aura. Wan Feng felt a suffocating killing intent. He seemed to understand why the other party had become their companion. Even if he was a half-sacrificial soldier, his martial arts were probably the highest among them.

Wasn’t this strange? How could a mere half-sacrificial soldier do this? Of course, now was not the time to investigate this.

“I asked around,” Wan Feng said. “He’s locked up in the water dungeon.”

The few of them nodded. It was similar to Jiang Hai’s guess.

Wan Feng sighed. “My master predicted that you would save him and strengthened the security of the water dungeon. Even I can’t easily let him out now.”

“Can you go in?” Jiang Hai and Qing Yan asked in unison. It seemed that the two of them had thought of the same method.

Wan Feng thought for a while. “I’ll try.”

Fifteen minutes later, Qing Yan and Jiang Hai disguised themselves as disciples of the State Preceptor Hall and followed Wan Feng to the water dungeon. Yue Gou and Shadow Thirteen hid in the dark to receive them in case of emergencies.

The guards at the dungeon gate were two golden-masked sacrificial soldiers and Wan Feng’s junior brother.

When Little Junior Brother saw him, he said with a smile, “Senior Brother Wan Feng, it’s so late. Why are you here?”

Wan Feng did not answer him. Instead, he said, “How’s the interrogation going? Has he confessed?”

Little Junior Brother said in distress, “I don’t know what that guy’s mouth is made of. We’ve used all our methods, but we still can’t pry out a word from him.”

Qing Yan’s face darkened when he heard that they had exhausted all their methods. Ah Wei was the youngest among them. Although they always bullied him, they could not bear to really touch Ah Wei. Damn the State Preceptor Hall, it was best not to let him discover that they had tortured Ah Wei!

“Is he a sacrificial soldier? Why can’t we pry open his mouth? Have you been slacking off?” Wan Feng complained.

Little Junior Brother said awkwardly, “How would I dare? We’ve been interrogating him since he was captured, but he won’t confess!”

“Master said that his motive for infiltrating the State Preceptor Hall is not pure. Moreover, he has accomplices. Perhaps they have already infiltrated the State Preceptor Hall and are thinking of a way to save him. You have to keep a close eye on him. If he disappears and Master blames you, you will all have to suffer.”

“Of course!” Little Junior Brother promised.

“Forget it. Since I’m already here, I’ll go see how the interrogation is going on inside, and see why we can’t get a result in half a day.”

“This…” Little Junior Brother hesitated.

“Why? Can’t I enter?” Wan Feng asked.

Little Junior Brother scratched his head. “It’s not that I don’t allow Senior Brother Wan Feng to enter, but the State Preceptor has ordered that other than him, no one is allowed to enter the water dungeon without permission.”

“Since it’s Master’s order, I won’t force it. I originally planned to help you interrogate…” Wan Feng said as he turned around without forcing it.

“Hey, hey, hey!” Little Junior Brother was anxious to pull him back. Humans were like that. The more they forced themselves, the more suspicious they became. He was so calm that Little Junior Brother felt that he was judging a gentleman’s character with a petty mind. “Why don’t Senior Brother Wan Feng go in and help make a decision? If there’s no other way, you can put in a good word for us in front of the State Preceptor later. We really work hard. It’s that guy. He’s too stubborn!”

Wan Feng sighed. “I can’t guarantee that it will work. I’ll try.”
