Chapter 1371: Impossible to Guard Against
But the prison guards actually believed it so easily, it was simply magical.
Ling Zhenfei was about to speak, but the prison guard didn't give him a chance. They directly took Ling Zhenfei and walked towards the distance.
Ling Zhenfei was infuriated. What kind of thing was this? How did he get tricked so easily again? It was simply unavoidable.
Soon, Ling Zhenfei was taken to one of the small houses and locked inside. The house was really very small. How small, you ask?
You couldn't stretch your legs lying down, and if you wanted to stand, you'd have to hunch over, so you could only sit inside.
If it were an ordinary person, they couldn't endure it after a while; the leg muscles would ache from being unable to stretch for a long time.
But fortunately, Ling Zhenfei wouldn't have such an issue. He could sit cross-legged for a long time without a problem.
However, Zhenfei was very angry in his heart. He couldn't believe he got tricked again; just thinking about it made him feel a bit uncomfortable.
Later that night, someone came to deliver food to Ling Zhenfei. The meal was decent this time, with meat and vegetables, and not the rock-hard buns but rice, which was still hot.
The dishes were rapeseed and braised pork. Though not much meat, it was quite appetizing.
By that time, it was time to eat, and with the meal smelling so fragrant, it really made one want to have a bite.
Ling Zhenfei picked up the meal, took up the chopsticks, about to eat, but suddenly his Divine Sense noticed that the person who had delivered the food did not leave but was just outside the small house.
Ling Zhenfei was very curious why the person hadn't left, and occasionally peeked inside.
Ling Zhenfei found it strange. Why was this person looking inside? Besides Ling Zhenfei himself, there seemed to be nothing else in there.
After thinking about it, Ling Zhenfei was shocked. Could it be that there was something wrong with the food?
This person seemed to want to see if Ling Zhenfei had eaten it.
Thinking of this, Ling Zhenfei hurriedly used his Divine Sense to probe the bowl of food, and indeed found that it tasted a bit odd, implying something else had been added.
Ling Zhenfei was furious, glad that he had been cautious; otherwise, who knows what would have happened if he ate the food.
Thinking of this, Ling Zhenfei also thought of a plan, then pretended to eat while actually pouring all into the Heaven-Dropping Essence Marrow.
Ling Zhenfei placed the dish at the door and said to the person waiting there: "Tonight's meal is not bad, is it because staying here provides special privileges?"
The person glanced at Ling Zhenfei, then at the dish, and said in surprise: "Finished it all?"
Ling Zhenfei nodded and said: "Yes, finished it all."
The person took the dish and walked away, and Ling Zhenfei also immediately used his Soul Out of Body to follow the person as they walked towards the distance. Upon reaching the distance, Ling Zhenfei saw there was someone waiting there.
This person was one of the newly arrived people carrying Northern Spiritual Energy.
Upon seeing the person, the prison guard hurried to his side and said happily: "He ate it all."
The person nodded happily and said: "Don't worry, not a penny less for you, but there's another step now."
"What step?" asked the prison guard.
The person said: "Nothing else, make sure tonight's duty doesn't come here, when the boy dies tomorrow, the money will be in your account."
The prison guard was happy and said: "That's simple, that's simple, but is it really true that you can't tell how he died?"
The person said: "Don't worry, if anyone knew how he died, it wouldn't just be trouble for you, but also for me."
"Yes, yes, I believe you."
Then the two walked away into the distance, and Ling Zhenfei understood; they were planning to kill him.
How much hatred would warrant wanting to kill him? It seemed he couldn't just sit and wait; he needed to teach this person a good lesson.
Thinking of this, Ling Zhenfei used his Divine Sense to explore how many surveillance cameras were nearby and how many duty guards were around, getting a clear picture.
As night deepened, it quickly reached early morning; at this time, the breeze was rising, and Ling Zhenfei's small house was not warm at all, becoming freezing cold.
Ling Zhenfei was extremely angry; anyone locked in this small house would be unbearable, perhaps even freeze to death.
Ling Zhenfei's Thought flickered, turning the surrounding cameras blind, then gently using a wave of Northern Spiritual Energy, quickly unlocked the lock.
Ling Zhenfei walked out; there were no prison guards around, clearly the previous guards had given perfectly clear instructions.
If there had been guards, the poison Ling Zhenfei consumed would have caused painful screams, which would have led them to find and save him; hence, no guards were left around.
This instead facilitated Ling Zhenfei, allowing him to walk out without encountering any guards; wherever Ling Zhenfei went, the cameras malfunctioned.
Even if a guard was encountered on duty, Ling Zhenfei's Soul Passage quietly passed by, making the person immediately faint, allowing Ling Zhenfei to reach the cell directly.
In the cell, Ling Zhenfei went directly to number eight, where the two people were located.
By then everyone was asleep; a Thought from Ling Zhenfei opened the main door.
The door opened, causing movement, waking everyone in the room.
The lights turned on, and those inside saw Ling Zhenfei, everyone was shocked because these were the ones who attacked Ling Zhenfei during the day, knowing Ling Zhenfei was locked in a small house, not knowing how he got out.
The two were also surprised to see Ling Zhenfei, clearly not expecting how Ling Zhenfei managed to get out.
Upon seeing Ling Zhenfei, chaos erupted in the room, and someone shouted: "Everyone, let's go together."
This person might have been the previous cell boss, but the new two had taken the position, yet his call still had influence; after his words, they all charged at Ling Zhenfei.
Ling Zhenfei stood there motionless, deploying a Soul Attack, enveloping everyone instantly.
Buzz!
Everyone felt as if their head had been struck, and they all fainted, leaving only the two cultivators.
The two were also hit by the Soul Attack but only experienced dizziness for a second.
But one second was enough; by the time they regained their senses, Ling Zhenfei was already charging at them.
Ling Zhenfei's speed was incredible, leaving no time to react, he punched both of them, sending them flying.
The two crashed into the wall and fell to the ground, but before they could get up, Ling Zhenfei charged again, grabbed each by one hand, and threw them against another wall.
The two were in the Late Stage of Zhiyi Realm, but in front of Ling Zhenfei, they were insignificant, rendered powerless, after being slammed against the wall several times, they became motionless.
