Inside the prison, Zhang Zhili's mind was blank.
He looked back at the fleeing prisoners, his eyes bloodshot, and his intent to kill boiling.
"Kill them!"
Zhang Zhili did not know whether the information about 'Qin Yan's cave dwelling' mentioned by the female Heavenly Demon was true or false; he only knew that it was of great importance to their Lord of Inspection, admitting no failure.
Since these people had learned about Qin Yan's dwelling, they must not be allowed to live and walk out.
However, as soon as Zhang Zhili gave the order instinctively, he felt something was wrong.
In acting this way, weren't they proving that they were indeed the people of the judicial inspection agency? Proving that their Lord of Inspection indeed intended to rebel, wanting to silence others by killing them, even intending to assassinate gods?
The key issue was that they couldn't stop them.
The prisoners included not only Gu Lai, an inner sect elder of the Burning Saber Sect, but also seven or eight other powerful martial cultivators of the fourth realm. The rest were mostly disciples of the Burning Saber Sect, along with captured martial artists from the rivers and lakes, totaling over a hundred people, all not lacking in combat strength.
In addition, these people had likely taken some stimulant, their spirits were highly aroused, displaying vigorous health and formidable energy.
These prisoners, though they had just had their restraints and chains removed, fought with the vitality of dragons and tigers.
Zhang Zhili himself took action along with another colleague of the fifth realm, but they failed to keep Gu Lai.
After thirty or so prisoners died, the remaining seventy-odd people soon violently broke through the prison doors and ran out.
Zhang Zhili watched these escaping prisoners, clenched his teeth fiercely with anger and frustration in his heart, "Speed up, open the gate quickly!"
He knew he had mishandled the situation, clearly being unable to silence them through death yet making such a foolish move.
This time on his return, he was certain to face severe punishment from above.
Just then, two black-clothed men hurried down from above: "Where is Yimu? Jia Mu has ordered you to go up immediately for reinforcement, send another twenty people up, quickly!"
Zhang Zhili was taken aback by the words. Yimu was another judicial assistant who came with the deputy Lord of Inspection, Hao Pingyi.
Among all the judicial assistants at the judicial inspection agency, this man was the least senior but his strength was impressive, on par with Wang Tiandong as a near-royal class!
Upon hearing the message, Hao Pingyi didn't hesitate to grab his weapon and quickly head out.
As he walked, he asked, "What exactly happened above?"
"Yimu is dead!" the black-clothed man who came with the news had a hoarse voice: "He was killed by that Defense Officer Lin Twelve, in person! This person has mastered the Super Emperor Secret Blade of the fourth realm, perhaps even reaching the imperial level. Be very careful, sir! Those Imperial Guards in the inner service are counterattacking, and it's tricky."
Hao Pingyi and Zhang Zhili were both shocked by the news.
Yimu is dead? The most powerful and senior judicial assistant Feng Guang was dead? And killed by Lin Twelve?
"Impossible!"
Hao Pingyi had a good relationship with Feng Guang. Outraged and eyes bulging with fury, he exclaimed, "Below the fifth realm, there cannot be an imperial-level secret technique, nor can there be an imperial-level Sacred Body!"
Below the fifth realm, it's possible to have a single imperial level talent ability, but an overall imperial level Sacred Body is absolutely non-existent!
Moreover, an imperial-level secret move has never existed!
He was determined to confront Lin Twelve to see exactly how he killed his brother Feng.
Zhang Zhili's mood, meanwhile, turned grim.
Judging by the current situation, things were not going as smoothly as they had anticipated.
And just at this moment, the iron gate on the third floor blasted open with a loud bang!
The technicians they brought performed well, opening the door quickly.
As Zhang Zhili strode into the third floor and swiftly scanned the surroundings, his expression briefly froze.
He saw thick smoke everywhere, completely obscuring the sight of the prison guards and Imperial Guards.
Thereupon, Zhang Zhili quickly strode toward the cell of Zhu Huaimeng.
Before they started their operation, they had thoroughly learned about the conditions inside the prison, even bribing two prison guards to map out the entire defense system.
Thus, even though the area was shrouded in thick smoke, Zhang Zhili could still roughly determine the location of Zhu Huaimeng's cell.
However, when Zhang Zhili walked over, opened the bars with a single palm strike, and entered the cell, he froze again.
There was only Zhu Huaimeng's corpse, her face blue-purple as she lay on the bed, stabbed dozens of times, devoid of any life both inside and out.
The woman was dead?
Zhang Zhili frowned deeply.
Judging by the fresh blood from the wounds and the remaining warmth of the woman's body, she must have just been brutally stabbed to death!
At that moment, he heard a loud shout through the fog.
"Zhu Huaimeng is dead! That extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon was stabbed to death by these traitors."
"They didn't come to free someone, they came to silence by killing!"
At this time, Zhang Zhili only wanted to curse loudly, thinking, damn your silence by killing?
They were still figuring out how to deal with this Heavenly Demon, trying to track down Professor Han and others, talking about killing whom and silencing whom?
He immediately felt dizzy and a chill spread throughout his body.
Zhang Zhili had realized they had likely walked into a trap, perhaps Lin Twelve had long prepared and was waiting for them to arrive!
The question was Lin Twelve's motives.
This man, passing the strictest Heavenly Demon Test and having been verified by the protectorate war dragons, must surely be a pure celestial from the Extreme Polar Star.
Given his age and background, it was unlikely for him to collude with extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons. Read new adventures at My Virtual Library Empire
Did this youth really need to go to such lengths? To be irreconcilably opposed with their Lord of Inspection?
