I Transmigrated As A Prison Guard And Suppressed The Princess

>

Little Zhou took out a stack of banknotes worth about a thousand taels.
“My Lord, do you want me to lend you some money?”

“You think I need this from you?” Shen Yiming glared at him fiercely and left in a huff.

“Brother Xiao, what’s gotten into our Lord?”

“Would you be happy if you lost a large sum of money?” Leaving Little Zhou to digest his words, Xiao Ran left the Lunar Reflection Institute.

On the way back,

he deliberately activated his spiritual soul energy to scout around.

The scholar from the Yin Incubation Institute followed him sneakily.
The corners of Xiao Ran’s mouth curled up and he said with a wicked expression, “So you have decided to proactively deliver yourself to me? Then I can dig out the secret from you this time.”

He did not return to his home in Jingwen Square.

He made his way to the moat.
It was quiet and quite suitable for burying bodies.

When he reached his destination, Xiao Ran stopped.

There wasn’t much in the way of human traffic so Old Gu stopped hiding and emerged from somewhere in the back.

“How did the Source Consuming Pearl end up in your hands?”

“I thought you would stay in the back and keep following me,” Xiao Ran said.

Old Gu felt that something was wrong, but the other guy was clearly only at the Connate Realm.
He thought he might perhaps be thinking too much.

“You discovered my presence a long time ago?”

“What do you think?”

“You must have some special numinous treasure on you.
That’s why you realized that I was following you,” Old Gu said.

“Speak! Who is behind all this?”

Xiao Ran shrugged.
“Your luck is really too terrible.
Of all people, you had to bump into me the first time you launched your dastardly scheme.”

“You think I’ll believe that?”

“It doesn’t matter.
What’s important is that you’re here now,” Xiao Ran said.

Old Gu sneered.
“You think you can turn the tables around?”

Swish!

With his Traversing the Heavens in Twelve Steps, which had reached Genesis level, Xiao Ran re-appeared in front of him in a single step.
He was so fast that Old Gu didn’t even have time to react.
He grabbed his neck and lifted him off the ground.

Wild violent spirit energy rushed into his body and ruptured all the meridians in his body.

“Ah…” Old Gu’s body was racked with excruciating pain.

Xiao Ran casually threw him to the ground and asked, “Why did you guys collude with the Yama group and get the Daoist priest from the Supreme Pure Temple to attack?”

“W-who exactly are you?”

“I’m the one asking the questions, not you.” Xiao Ran stomped on him.

The sheer force of the stomp was more than what he could stomach, and he almost fainted.

“Just you wait! We won’t let you off.” Old Gu was also a ruthless person.
With that threat, he bit his tongue and committed suicide.

“I thought the older they are, the more fearful of death they are?” Xiao Ran was stunned by this turn of events.

He was already gone before he could start torturing him.

With a flick of his fingers,

the Empyrean Conflagration Holy Fire landed on Old Gu’s body and turned his corpse to ashes.

The Golden Tome of Creation flipped open to a random page and displayed two items: 500,000 Mastery points, Thunderfire Golden Essence Pill.

He added the 500,000 Mastery points to the Sanctifying Righteous Treasure Tome.

After the attributes were refreshed,

Sanctifying Righteous Treasure Tome: Dominating Refinement

He took out the Thunderfire Golden Essence Pill and used it to strengthen his physical body.
When the pill entered his stomach, his physical body advanced another step and it was now comparable to a Level 4 Grand Master.

At a courier station,

inside a room,

it was already dark and Old Gu hadn’t returned.
It was feared that he must have met with some accident.

Zhao Jishan and the other higher-ups sat in the room with grim stony expressions.

“I’m afraid Old Gu won’t be able to come back!”

As he spoke, the others nodded solemnly in agreement.

“We can’t hide this matter anymore.
If Old Gu doesn’t return by tomorrow morning, we’ll make our move first to gain the upper hand.
We’ll pretend to retreat and demand that the Imperial Court give us an explanation.
Otherwise, when they come to their senses and realize that we’re missing a person, we will be put on the back foot,” Zhao Jishan said.

None of them had any objections.

“What did the guys at Yama say?”

“They’re also investigating, but they don’t have any leads either.
However, after this incident, I’m afraid that the hidden perpetrators will continue to devour our Immense Righteous Energy tomorrow.
If this continues, even if this mission is completed, we will suffer heavy losses,” one of the higher-ups said.
