Just as Chu Chen was pondering, a guard’s call suddenly ca from outside the prison.
"Ti for fresh air." A guard shouted loudly.
Old Bai and Shi Feng exchanged a glance, and a hint of ruthlessness flashed in both of their eyes.
Seeing this, Chu Chen hurriedly asked, "Old Bai, is sothing the matter?"
Old Bai replied respectfully, "To report to Lord Divine Son, the forces within the Soul Suppressing Abyss are complex, and the brutal criminals are not few. They are imprisoned here, and it is very difficult for them to get out. Their mindsets have beco more extre, and every ti they have a break, conflicts occur. A few days ago, Shi Fengzi and I had a conflict with the Soul Locking Gang, and this ti going out, we might have to fight again."
Hearing this, Chu Chen couldn’t help but frown slightly and said, "I’m no longer the Divine Son; you can just call by na from now on."
Hearing this, both Old Bai and Shi Feng exchanged a glance and nodded.
Seeing this, Chu Chen then continued to ask, "As far as I know, we spend most of our ti locked up in the cells and have no interest conflicts with each other. Why are there still frequent conflicts?"
"There are two reasons for this. The first is the mindset transformation ntioned earlier. They have been imprisoned in this dark, sunless Soul Suppressing Abyss for many years, so psychological distortion is common. As for the second reason, it is the faction conflict. You were once the Divine Son, so you must be aware of the faction struggles within the Alliance."
Hearing this, Chu Chen nodded and said, "This is no secret at the higher levels, but I never expected there to be faction struggles even in this Soul Suppressing Abyss."
At this ti, Shi Feng suddenly explained, "If I were to go by the charges pressed on by the Yin father and son, I should have been sent to the front lines as cannon fodder. But with the vigorous protection of Lord Alliance Leader, I escaped such a fate and was imprisoned here. The sa situation exists for those on the Grand Elder’s side, so both parties often co to blows."
Chu Chen nodded with so thought, "What is the point of continuing the faction struggle while you are in the Soul Suppressing Abyss?"
"You might not know, but now the two factions of the Alliance are in a delicate balance. However, this balance is destined not to last long. If this balance is broken, we may have a chance to get out. Of course, if the Grand Elder’s side is stronger, then our fate will likely be death," Shi Feng said solemnly.
Upon hearing this, Chu Chen’s expression suddenly changed; the question that had been bothering him was finally answered.
Sun Wenshan insisted on imprisoning him for two years because he was confident of breaking this delicate balance within that ti.
Although Chu Chen did not know what ans he would use to break this balance, he must inform Zhao Wudi of this, otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.
However, this matter cannot entirely depend on others; he also needs to make preparations.
Thinking of this, Chu Chen’s face suddenly turned solemn.
"My lord, is there sothing uncomfortable?" Shi Feng asked with concern.
Chu Chen shook his head and said, "It’s nothing. By the way, when conflicts occur, doesn’t the warden intervene?"
Shi Feng shook his head and said, "The warden is indeed on the side of the Alliance Leader, but the deputy warden is from the Grand Elder’s side. As long as there’s no fatality, no one will intervene."
At this mont, the prison door was suddenly opened, and a guard said in a deep voice, "You can go out now."
Upon hearing this, Chu Chen imdiately got up and walked towards the door. Having just arrived, he was quite interested in this faction struggle within the Soul Suppressing Abyss.
Old Bai and Shi Feng hurried to follow.
The three walked along with the crowd toward outside the prison, and many people greeted Old Bai and Shi Feng along the way.
At Chu Chen’s signal, the prisoners belonging to Zhao Wudi’s faction gathered behind Old Bai and Shi Feng.
Chu Chen roughly counted about a hundred people, with half of them being of Emperor Level, and the rest being King Level.
Chu Chen asked Old Bai beside him, "As far as I know, there should be about a thousand prisoners in this Soul Suppressing Abyss. Do we only have a hundred in our faction?"
Old Bai quickly replied, "My lord, you are not fully aware. There are three strongest gangs in the Soul Suppressing Abyss. First is the previously ntioned Soul Locking Gang, the second is us - called the Bai Shi Gang, and the last is the Qingzhu Gang, which is a neutral faction that only seeks self-preservation and won’t get involved in the conflict between our two factions. Among the three gangs, the Qingzhu Gang has the most mbers, with over five hundred, of which over ninety percent are King Level. As for the remaining ones, they are psychologically distorted, fierce criminals who are not welcod, and are left to fend for themselves."
Hearing this, Chu Chen then asked again thoughtfully, "Then between our Bai Shi Gang and the Soul Locking Gang, which is stronger?"
Upon hearing this, Old Bai and Shi Feng had unpleasant expressions.
Seeing this, Chu Chen said solemnly, "It seems we are at a disadvantage."
"My lord, the Soul Locking Gang has more mbers than us, and they have a very powerful martial art called ’Thousand Illusion Palm.’ This palm technique is extrely powerful and creates many palm shadows in its attack, which is hard for us to defend against."
Upon hearing this, Chu Chen rubbed his chin. Here, soul power cannot be used, and battles rely entirely on physical strength and martial arts. Thus, the secret techniques Zhao Wudi gave him would co in handy.
Thinking of this, he subconsciously touched the three secret manuals in his chest pocket, realizing he must study them well, otherwise, even in this Soul Suppressing Abyss, it would not be safe.
While the three were talking, they had already arrived at the square for the break.
Chu Chen’s new face naturally attracted the attention of many.
People whispered among themselves as if discussing sothing.
Monts later, six to seven hundred people were marching toward them in an imposing manner.
Seeing this, Chu Chen couldn’t help but frown, and before he could ask, Shi Feng explained first, "The group of more than a hundred people to our left front is the Soul Locking Gang, led by their gang master, Master Luo. His strength is formidable; before entering the Soul Suppressing Abyss, he was a master at the peak of Emperor Level."
Hearing this, Chu Chen looked at Master Luo and found him to be a slender middle-aged man with eyes as cold as a snake, and his skin was unhealthily pale. However, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, giving him a devilishly charming look.
At this ti, Shi Feng spoke again, "These are mbers of the Qingzhu Gang. Their leader is called Zhao Qingzhu. Her strength is also not weak; before entering the Soul Suppressing Abyss, she too was at the peak of Emperor Level."
Hearing this, Chu Chen looked at Zhao Qingzhu and found her to be a voluptuous and beautiful woman, with long black hair cascading like a waterfall down to her waist, with a fair face and exquisite features.
For such a beauty to be imprisoned in the Soul Suppressing Abyss and still beco a gang leader, her ans and strength must be extraordinary.
While Chu Chen was observing the two, they were also observing him.
"You must be Chu Chen. I didn’t expect you to be younger than I imagined," Master Luo said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Chu Chen couldn’t help but frown; the fact that the other party could directly state his na clearly ant they had received news beforehand.
Chu Chen replied coldly, "Your actions are swift; it seems Sun Wenshan doesn’t want to be too lonely and specially arranged so little interludes."
Hearing this, Master Luo stared intently at Chu Chen, and the anger in his eyes was almost about to burst out.
Seeing this, Shi Feng stepped forward and stood in front of Chu Chen.
Seeing this, Master Luo’s face beca even grayer. The scene he least wanted to see had appeared; with the protection of the Bai Shi Gang, he couldn’t do anything to the opponent.
At this mont, Zhao Qingzhu smiled and tried to defuse the situation, "This is our first eting, so there’s no need to be so tense. Today, I just want to get acquainted with young brother Chen. Surely Master Luo has no objections?"
Hearing this, Master Luo’s expression suddenly changed. He turned his head to look at Zhao Qingzhu and sternly warned, "I have no problem with whoever Master Zhao wants to et, but Master Zhao should rember her position to avoid unnecessary disasters."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Qingzhu’s expression did not change at all. She leisurely said, "Rest assured, Master Luo, my position won’t change. I’ve only heard of young brother Chen’s deeds and ca to get to know him better."
Hearing this, Master Luo realized he was unable to find trouble today. He let out a cold snort and turned to leave with the mbers of the Soul Locking Gang.
