Wang Wu hesitated for a long ti.
Song Guangming didn’t rush him, just smiled and watched. This was his territory. He wasn’t soone who repaid grievances with kindness, nor was he soone without a bottom line, and he wasn’t soone who sought revenge for the smallest affront.
However, he was still willing to give his friends so harmless surprises.
No matter how one chose, there were plenty of surprises.
After a long while, Wang Wu finally looked up, carefully choosing his words, and said, "I still really want to see my hotown. May I ask, what does the so-called subsidy an? What’s the standard for repairing Sin Prison? Can I cultivate after completing the repair task?"
Upon hearing this, Song Guangming imdiately furrowed his brows and said worriedly, "Wang Zhige, I understand your feelings and understand your thoughts. You have an 18-level Penetrating Divine Techniques, which gives you a great advantage in repairing Magical Treasure and Immortal Artifacts. Didn’t you quietly repair the base of the Hidden Origin Bell in Dragon Head City back then? In that sense, choosing the third path is quite suitable for you."
"However, we indeed got to know each other through conflict. I truly admire you. Besides, in this Sin Prison, I don’t have any familiar friends. It’s really boring and tedious here. You could totally stay. We could drink so wine, listen to so music, and discuss Daoist Divine Techniques. Wouldn’t that be great? Really, five hundred years, it’ll pass very quickly. Once you’re out, it’ll be a brand new beautiful day again. It’s not worth it, really not worth it!"
What Song Guangming said was quite sincere, and Wang Wu was very touched. Truly deserving of being a moral paragon, an embodint of light and justice, a Holy Knight of light.
At this mont, he cupped his hands and bowed deeply, saying emotionally, "When I was young and ignorant, I did many ridiculous things. Even thinking back now, I feel I have no face to et people, I’m truly ashad. Actually, I’ve heard my Senior Sister Qin Yu praise you. She really admired your direction in building Dragon Tail City, otherwise she wouldn’t have chosen to reside there permanently. Unfortunately, beauty is envied by heaven. Just for this, I trust you, Brother Song."
"Don’t call Brother, call Senior Brother!" As soon as Qin Yu was ntioned, Song Guangming’s eyes imdiately turned red, and his emotions rose.
"Yes, Senior Brother Song!"
"Ah, Junior Brother Wang, thinking of your Senior Sister’s unfortunate fate makes my heart feel so heavy. Please heed my advice: stay here; don’t choose the first or third. With here, you won’t suffer any loss."
"Senior Brother Song, I truly want to follow your advice, but the more so, the less I can burden you. I made a mistake, so I must be punished. I’ve already troubled you once in Dragon Head City. This ti, I mustn’t drag you down at all, not even a little. Senior Brother, say no more; I choose the third path. I’ll go repair Sin Prison!"
"Alright, since you’re so determined, then it wouldn’t be appropriate for to make it difficult for you. It’s just five hundred years. No matter how tough or tiring, you’ll get through it. Junior Brother, take care. As I have a duty to perform, I can’t offer you too much care!"
Song Guangming sighed deeply, looking just as desolate as ever.
"Senior Brother, don’t bla yourself. I co from that Sin Prison, and even if I endure hardship and toil there, I do so willingly!"
"Good! Then let’s sign this docunt!"
"Thank you, Senior Brother, for making it happen!"
Song Guangming quickly took out a docunt, and Wang Wu also quickly stepped forward to sign it, both fearing the other would change their mind.
As soon as the docunt ford a Spirit Contract, it took effect imdiately and could not be changed.
At this mont, Wang Wu and Song Guangming looked into each other’s eyes and saw sincerity in them.
"Junior Brother, I won’t see you off!"
"Senior Brother, please stay."
After saying goodbye again, a door behind Song Guangming rumbled open. Wang Wu stepped in boldly without hesitation, only to have the door closed by Song Guangming imdiately to prevent Wang Wu’s possible return.
"Hahaha! What a fool!"
Song Guangming laughed heartily and comfortably. He had been contemplating how to sche and plot to deceive this guy, and for that, he had made many arrangents in advance, even among the prisoners in Sin Prison.
In the end, it was so easy.
"Prison Elder, is it a bit against the rules to do this?"
At this point, a prison guard cautiously asked, not out of compassion, but because this Sin Prison wasn’t actually that terrifying. The Jia San Prison held short-term criminals whose sentences hadn’t exceeded five hundred years.
These so-called criminals were actually all above Earth Immortal Fifth Grade, and many were Taiyi True Immortals, so even deliberately ca down to ditate in seclusion for quiet.
Though they were prison guards, they truly didn’t dare to offend these grand masters and mistresses.
Who knew what the new Prison Elder was thinking, bringing docunts from Jia Er Prison to be signed here. Let put it this way: the prisoners in Jia San Prison were all insiders of the Hidden Origin Association.
Those in Jia Er Prison were enemies of the Hidden Origin Association. Dealing with enemies, naturally, they had to be as ruthless and cold as the winter wind, so dispatching them to repair the large holes in the newly acquired Jia Yi Prison was completely justified.
"What the hell do you know! Get lost!"
Song Guangming waved his hand to dismiss the two guards, then casually took out a Jade Talisman. Monts later, a handso man bearing so resemblance to Qin Yu appeared as a light projection.
Song Guangming laughed and said,
"Brother Qin, I’m happy to report success; the task is done. That Wang Zhige voluntarily went to Jia Yi Sin Prison, and he’s already signed the docunt. The process is all legal and compliant, so rest assured."
"Thank you, Brother Song, for diating. Ah, my poor sister, the one she couldn’t let go of most in life was her little Junior Brother; she even ntioned him to a few tis. Now, it’s all good; she won’t be lonely anymore."
The man, who seed to be Qin Yu’s brother, said simply, threw a Qiankun Bag, and his figure quickly disappeared.
Only Song Guangming remained, smiling playfully.
The case of Qin Yu’s death, although the murderer wasn’t caught, was effectively wrapped up. Neither Elder Hui nor any parties would actively pursue the real culprit. Letting the higher-ups see that they all cared about the bigger picture, were all united, and all acknowledged their mistakes, was enough.
Qin Yu, in essence, died in vain!
So no one would care about a minor character dispatched to Sin Prison.
No one cares about the Qin family’s thoughts.
So after reviewing the case files, the Qin family set their sights on the unfortunate Wang Zhige.
Although he wasn’t the murderer, he bore so responsibility for Qin Yu’s death.
If he’d agreed to Qin Yu’s request the day before, perhaps Qin Yu would have left and not died.
What a contemptible being you are to dare refuse an order from Qin Yu of my family. Since Qin Yu of my family is dead, you shall go with him.
It’s that simple.
Now the Qin family has already taken care of everything, even his ntor Black Emperor remained silent, and the Elder Hui’s side knew but chose to acquiesce.
So well then, Song Guangming could do nothing but accept the benefits without a qualm, especially since he was acting according to rules and justice, who would seek justice for Wang Zhige?
After all, he was afflicted by a blood curse and was useless, no longer of value.
Sigh!
Song Guangming sighed deeply, used to such things, and fortunately, he had no great ambitions in this life and was satisfied to beco a Taiyi True Immortal.
——
At this mont, Wang Wu had already been teleported to the ruins of a giant city.
He saw yellow sand covering the sky, the evil wind howling, darkness everywhere, with ghosts wailing and wolves howling!
Stunned, he looked for a while before realizing this seed to be Lu Wuchen’s Cloud Cauldron City?
What happened here? A perfectly good giant city turned into this ghostly state.
Even this sturdy city had turned to such, there was no need to imagine the rest of the areas.
"Hey, Wang Zhige, what are you standing around for, hurry over here!"
At this ti, soone shouted loudly from a part of the ruined city that barely retained its shape.
Wang Wu hurried over.
Upon entering the fortress, he saw a wizened old man in a purple robe holding a docunt and beckoning him over.
Wait, this old man looks familiar. Isn’t he the one who helped Song Guangming construct Dragon Tail City and the base for the Hidden Origin Bell Immortal Artifact over a century ago?
The Ninefold Tribulation Fire Array and Three Realms Spirit Wind Array that Wang Wu learned were from this old man here. Unexpectedly, after a hundred years, they t here; it’s truly destiny.
At this mont, the purple-robed elder spoke solemnly.
"Wang Zhige, I am Lu Tiangong, a sixth-grade elder of the Hidden Origin Association, now the chief of the Craftsmanship Departnt of the Hidden Origin Association, in charge of renovating this Jia Yi Sin Prison. From now on, for the next five hundred years, you are under my command. This docunt bears your Spirit Pattern Seal; if you dare defy my orders, I can impose ninety-nine kinds of punitive penalties on you according to the docunt’s clauses!"
"I understand, please give your orders, Lord Chief Steward!"
Wang Wu behaved very obediently.
"Very well, now let explain that you might think being here would an working you to death, but although it’s dangerous, surviving is easy as long as you follow the rules."
"Currently, the Yang Thunder, Yin Fire, and Evil Wind of the Three Calamities have leaked, devastating this small world. Among them, the Evil Wind is the most severe, perating everywhere, so first, be prepared for the three defenses: defense against wind, fire, and thunder!"
"I have specially prepared Three-Defense Treasure Armor for every criminal prisoner, which can be repaired three tis a year and replaced with a new set every ten years."
"Additionally, there are three types of allowances: the first is going out to labor with and my disciples, earning ten thousand Dou of ordinary Spiritual Qi daily."
"The second is performing exposure labor at a fixed location, earning a hundred thousand Dou of ordinary Spiritual Qi daily."
"The third is exploring unknown, uncharted territories, earning a million Dou of ordinary Spiritual Qi daily."
"Of course, I don’t care about your past identities, the cris you’ve committed, or your reasons for being here. I don’t interfere in external disputes; if you do well, I’ll personally reward you."
"Therefore, like the Hidden Origin Association, I’ve set these three types of allowances as Level 3 tasks based on difficulty. For every hundred Level 1 tasks completed, I’ll guarantee you can retreat to my residence to cultivate for a month."
"For every hundred Level 2 tasks completed, I’ll guarantee a year of closed-door cultivation."
"For every hundred Level 3 tasks completed, I’ll guarantee ten years of closed-door cultivation."
"Your current overall strength rating is Tier Five Earth Immortal, so I won’t make it hard for you; for now, follow my disciples and carry out Level 1 tasks!"
"Unrivaled!"
"Disciple is here."
"Co and take a new prisoner laborer."
"Yes, sir!"
