In a quiet large hall.
Hun Tiandi was seated on the throne at the end of the hall. He was listening to the report from the people below.
He involuntarily knocked on the armrest and said, "You may leave!"
"Yes, clan leader."
The black robed person disappeared from the large hall.
The Hun Lick Emperor opened his eyes after some hesitation. He said in a faint voice, "He is indeed worthy of being my Xiu 'er."
"I originally thought that you had taken a fancy to that girl's looks.
I did not expect that you would do it for the Hun clan. "
"Controlling the Ancient Void Dragon and indirectly ruling the entire Magical Beast World. I did not expect this."
"Xiu 'er is indeed worthy of being my son."
"Looks like I have misunderstood him!
He is not that kind of person. "
… …
Hun Xiu thought that only the two of them knew about the conversation between him and Hun Huzi. However, he did not know that their conversation had already been clearly heard by Hun Tiandi.
If Hun Tiandi claimed to be second in terms of controlling the Hun clan, no one would dare to claim to be first.
… …
There was a dark tunnel. When Hun Xiu stepped into it, flames had already appeared on both sides of the dark tunnel.
They lit up the dark tunnel.
These flames were green in color. They flickered and appeared as though they would be extinguished soon.
The tunnel could not be seen. It was as though it was heading to hell. It was so strange and eerie.
Hun Xiu slowly walked forward.
Soon.
He soon arrived at the end.
There was a huge stone door at the end. The stone door was simple and unadorned. From the looks of it, it was quite old and did not appear to have existed overnight.
The stone door contained a mysterious energy. This energy did not possess any offensive properties.
However, once an attack was launched against the door, the door would unleash a powerful force that would reflect the attack back.
Even a Dou Sheng might not be able to do anything to this door.
"Who are you?"
Just as Hun Xiu arrived in front of the stone door, the space at the door fluctuated slightly.
There were two black-robed men. Their entire bodies were wrapped in black robes, and they held huge black sickles in their hands.
His body was surrounded by an eerie and terrifying black fog. Within the black fog, there was a pitch-black iron chain that looked like a pitch-black venomous snake. It swam back and forth within the black fog.
Beneath the black robe was a pair of blood-red eyes that glowed with red light. He looked like an emissary from hell.
These two black-robed men were the gatekeepers of this place. Their strength was at the Half-saint level.
"Hua!"
Hun Xiu did not hesitate and directly flashed his token.
"Greetings, Young Master."
When the two guards saw the token that Hun Xiu flashed, they did not hesitate. They knelt down on one knee and said respectfully.
"Yes."
Hun Xiu nodded.
He put the token away and stood with his hands behind his back.
"Open the door. I want to go to the dungeon."
That was right.
This was the dungeon.
In the dungeon of the Soul World.
"Yes!"
When the two gatekeepers heard this, they did not hesitate and immediately used their methods.
Whoosh!
Creak!
The stone door slowly opened.
"Guard here. I have some matters to attend to. Don't let anyone in." Looking at the stone door that was opened, Hun Xiu instructed.
"Yes."
The two gatekeepers quickly nodded and said yes.
Hun Xiu stepped through the stone door and entered the dungeon.
In the dungeon.
It was eerie and strange. There was no light all year round. What accompanied this dungeon was a faint green fire.
It was not an exaggeration to say that this dungeon was hell.
This was simply not a place for humans to stay.
Along the way, Hun Xiu saw many people who were on the verge of death.
These people were all elite Dou Shengs. If they were outside, they would be at the peak.
But.
Here.
In the dungeon of the Soul World.
They only had one identity.
And that was prisoners.
Most of these people were spies that the other ancient clans had placed in the Soul World. Some of them were experts who had offended the Soul Clan.
Hun Xiu's arrival naturally attracted their attention.
They all looked at Hun Xiu. Under their messy hair, they looked at Hun Xiu with a pair of glowing eyes. These were not eyes that an ordinary person could have.
They were imprisoned here by the Soul Clan. Their lives were worse than death.
Death was not scary.
What was scary was that their lives were worse than death.
The Soul Clan would not let them die. The Soul Clan wanted them to live a life worse than death.
"Ah …"
When these prisoners saw Hun Xiu, they wanted to pounce on him. However, the metal chains that trapped them rattled and restricted their freedom.
They could only roar with unwillingness. Their voices were comparable to that of demons from hell.
In response to these voices.
Hun Xiu turned a deaf ear.
He continued to walk.
Because the people he was looking for were not these people.
The reason Hun Xiu came to the dungeon was very simple. He wanted to see Xiao Zhan.
Although he did not have much contact with Xiao Zhan.
What should he say?
This was also his "beloved friend", Brother Yan's father.
When he was in the Xiao Family, he was taken care of by him.
Now.
Xiao Zhan was captured and brought here.
If he did not come and take a look, it would not be right.
Moreover.
The Tou She Ancient God's Jade that belonged to the Xiao Family was now in his hands.
And Xiao Zhan was still suffering here. He could not bear to see him suffer!
…
He kept walking.
The dungeon was very big. The door was just a space that led to the dungeon.
After walking for a long time.
Hun Xiu finally found Xiao Zhan in a cell.
Xiao Zhan's limbs were locked by black metal chains, including his neck. He was suspended in the air.
His body was tattered and there were many bloodstains. His hair was messy and his face was dirty. His head was hanging low.
He was on his last breath. Obviously, Xiao Zhan was not treated well during this period of time.
Compared to the treatment Hun Xiu received when he went to the Xiao Family, the treatment Xiao Zhan received when he came to the Xiao Family was worlds apart!
Compared to the other prisoners in the dungeon, Xiao Zhan was more special.
After all.
Along the way, the strongest prisoner was a Dou Sage and the weakest was a Dou Zun.
And Xiao Zhan was trapped here with the strength of a Da Dou Shi.
He became a prisoner here.
This was a one-of-a-kind "glory".
When the news spread.
Xiao Zhan's reputation gradually rose.
…
Hearing that someone was coming, Xiao Zhan could not help but speak weakly.
"Don't hit me anymore …
"I really don't know what the Tou She Ancient God's Jade is …
"I don't know …"
One could vaguely hear Xiao Zhan's weak voice.
Xiao Zhan felt bitter!
He had only heard of the Tou She Ancient God's Jade but had never seen it.
He really did not know!
He did not know how many times he had said this.
However, the people here did not believe him at all.
Every time he said that he did not know.
They would beat him up and serve him.
They even said that he was stubborn.
He really was not stubborn.
He really did not know.
He wanted to commit suicide.
But his battle energy was sealed. He could not commit suicide at all.
He could only tell the truth while being served.
It was too difficult for him!
Why did no one believe him when he told the truth?
He had thought of lying but he was afraid!
He was afraid that if he was found to be lying, the entire Xiao Family would be finished.
He had seen how powerful these people were.
Those strong people in the Jia Ma Empire were nothing in the eyes of these people.
They were nothing.
Therefore …
He could only tell the truth as he was beaten black and blue.
