Free Web NovelChapter 47: Chapter 47: Seeing Through Xu Yun! His Highness the Flame Demon
HUMM!
Su Bai’s thoughts stirred.
An incomparably sharp silver blade materialized before Su Bai’s eyes!
Its sharp glint made even Su Bai’s heart tremble slightly.
But this sharp sword wasn’t some Cultivation Technique; it was formed from a wisp of Su Bai’s Divine Sense!
’This... could this be the legendary Divine Sense Sword?’
Su Bai mused as he stared at the silver sword before him.
The so-called Divine Sense Sword was a technique where a Martial Artist’s Divine Sense, upon reaching a certain level of power, could manifest into a tangible attack.
For example, a Divine Sense Sword, a Spiritual Sense Saber, a Spiritual Sense Transformation Bell, and so on!
This type of Spiritual Sense Type attack was far too ghostly and difficult to block. Many ordinary Defensive Magical Artifacts were completely ineffective against Divine Sense attacks!
Only more powerful and specialized Spiritual Sense Type Defensive Magical Artifacts or specific Cultivation Techniques could defend against such Divine Sense attacks!
After some experimentation, Su Bai discovered that with his current Divine Sense intensity, he could form dozens of Spiritual Sense Sword Blades in an instant!
With just a thought, these Spiritual Sense Sword Blades would pierce through an enemy’s Sea of Consciousness at incredible speed!
Enemies whose Divine Sense was weaker than Su Bai’s would likely die inexplicably!
With their Sea of Consciousness destroyed, even if their physical bodies were formidable, they would still face certain death!
’I didn’t expect such a pleasant surprise after my Divine Sense improved!’
A pleased expression appeared on Su Bai’s face; he was quite satisfied with this new type of Divine Sense attack.
This gave Su Bai a brand new method of attack!
Moreover, it was a method that could kill powerful enemies silently and without a trace!
With his Divine Sense now stronger, Su Bai thought for a moment and decided to use it to inspect the prison.
He wanted to see if any Demon Fiends had snuck in, or if any convicts were trying to escape.
Just as he was about to activate his Divine Sense, a certain person suddenly came to mind.
Thinking of this person, a glint flashed in Su Bai’s eyes.
’Right, I can check on that new member of the Prison Suppression Bureau, Xu Yun!’
Xu Yun!
Like Su Bai, this man had once been an "intern" in the Red District!
He too had caught Lord Chen’s eye and had recently passed numerous trials to become a Martial Artist in the Prison Suppression Bureau!
But the man was stern and humorless, with a solitary nature. He preferred to be alone and had little interaction with the other Martial Artists of the Prison Suppression Bureau.
He and the easygoing Su Bai, who got along with everyone, were polar opposites. freёwebnovel.com
Previously, in the lounge, Su Bai had briefly used his Divine Sense and discovered that the man’s Divine Spirit was nearly as strong as his own!
Now that was interesting!
The deeper implications of this were something he couldn’t help but ponder.
But now, after his Divine Sense had surged in power, it had completely surpassed Xu Yun’s. Even if Su Bai spied on him, Xu Yun wouldn’t be able to detect a thing!
With this in mind, Su Bai activated his Divine Sense, quickly enveloping Xu Yun’s residence.
Xu Yun’s residence wasn’t far from Su Bai’s, only a li or two away, so his sense covered it in an instant!
’Hm? He’s not here?’
But when he saw that Xu Yun’s residence was empty, Su Bai’s eyes narrowed.
’This Xu Yun is a big problem!’
After all, at this time of night, most of the Martial Artists from the Prison Suppression Bureau had already returned to their personal quarters. Few would be out and about.
After a moment of thought, Su Bai continued to expand his Divine Sense.
He expanded it until it covered the entire B-Class Prison!
And that special Red District!
With his current Divine Sense intensity, some of the Restrictions within the Great Xia Prison could no longer block him.
’Huh? Why is this Red Fire Great Demon half-kneeling on the ground?’
Probing with his Divine Sense, Su Bai was surprised to find that the Red Fire Great Demon, who was supposed to be locked up in the Sequence Prison, was actually kneeling on the ground!
And there seemed to be no one in front of him.
’Hm? No, that’s not right! It’s a special Magical Artifact that can conceal one’s figure and voice, hiding this person’s true appearance!’
Su Bai pushed his Divine Sense further, finally breaking through the Magical Artifact’s concealment and seeing the person’s true face!
And this person was none other than Xu Yun!
At the same time, Su Bai clearly overheard the conversation between Xu Yun and the Red Fire Great Demon.
The Red Fire Great Demon took a bottle of special black Elixirs from Xu Yun’s hand, his expression slightly agitated as he said, "With the Black Spirit Pills bestowed by Your Highness, I will surely be able to recover from my injuries completely and even raise my Cultivation to the next level!"
Xu Yun said with a deadpan expression, "The plan has reached a critical stage. When the time comes, take the Black Spirit Pills and await my command. Once the moment is right, you will immediately unleash the Red Fire Demon Skill, then use the special Magical Artifact I gave you to blast open the Sequence Prison cells in the Red District and release these Demons!"
"Heh heh... Rest assured, Your Highness!" freewebnoveℓ.com
The Red Fire Great Demon chuckled, his heart pounding with excitement!
He could already imagine the beautiful scene on that day: the Red District, with countless Demons breaking free from their cells!
And when that time came, he would tear those two damned old men to shreds!
’His Highness?’
’Release the Demons from the Sequence Prison?’
’Cause a riot?’
Hearing their conversation, Su Bai’s Heart Spirit went cold!
He didn’t yet understand Xu Yun’s reasons for doing this.
But once the Demons imprisoned in the Red District were released, not only would the Red District descend into chaos, but the entire prison would likely be turned upside down by them!
Moreover, the Red Fire Great Demon was planning to target Elder Qing and Elder Yan first!
’This Demon is digging his own grave!’
Then, Su Bai continued to "listen" with his Divine Sense!
"When the prison is in chaos, I will enter the A-Class Prison and rescue my kinsman. At that time, you will use the treasure I’ve given you to escape this prison!"
The thought that he would soon be able to rescue his kinsman brought a hint of joy to Xu Yun’s expression as he spoke briefly.
Their Flame Demon Lineage was an ancient one with a noble and old bloodline, and its members were exceedingly rare!
Every member of the clan was the most precious treasure of the Flame Demon Lineage!
His kinsman’s talent was even greater than his own. It was only because he was young and ignorant that he had trespassed into the territory of Great Xia, committed a few murders, and was captured by the Martial Artists of the Demon Suppression Bureau!
And the key reason Xu Yun had come to rescue his kinsman was to allow him to return to the clan and receive the ancestor’s inheritance!
To obtain a portion of the Ancestral Blood!
Then, Xu Yun would use a special Cultivation Technique to strip the Flame Demon Bloodline from his body!
And absorb it into his own!
In this way, Xu Yun, possessing two portions of the Ancestral Blood, would surely become an exceptionally terrifying existence!
After giving his brief instructions, Xu Yun departed.
Inside the Sequence Prison, the Red Fire Great Demon sat cross-legged on the ground, his expression back to normal, showing no trace of his earlier agitation.
’He’s a pretty good actor!’
Su Bai’s expression flickered. Then, he directly used his Divine Sense Sword, stabbing towards the Red Fire Great Demon!
’Oh no! A Divine Sense attack from a Spirit Transformation Great Power!?’
The Red Fire Great Demon only reacted at the last moment, his face filled with terror!
But unfortunately, just as he opened his mouth, Su Bai’s Divine Sense attack completely shattered his Sea of Consciousness!
The Red Fire Great Demon was dead!
After killing the Red Fire Great Demon, Su Bai flickered out of his personal residence.
"Damn it! How did that bastard Red Fire die!?"
The moment the Red Fire Great Demon died, Xu Yun, who had just returned to his own quarters, had his expression change drastically!
He immediately realized.
The plan was exposed!
At the same time, he stared intently at the empty doorway.
Sweat dripped from his forehead!
His robes rustled.
From that direction, he sensed danger!
An immense danger!
"Xu Yun. Should I call you Xu Yun?"
"Or... Your Highness?"
In an instant, Su Bai’s Divine Sense transformed into a silver cage, completely sealing off the residence!
No sound could escape.
Then, he slowly stepped into the residence, his gaze deep and profound as he looked at Xu Yun.
