Free Web NovelChapter 76: Chapter 75: Return to Prison, an Anecdote, Don’t Disturb That Senior
The next morning.
Su Bai’s vacation was over. He had already said his goodbyes to the neighbors and returned to the prison.
Right now, he was carrying a large bag of delicious meat buns in one hand and a jug of fine wine in the other, casually strolling into the prison’s break room.
He had bought the meat buns and wine from an old shop that had been in business for over a decade after returning to the Imperial City. They were truly delicious.
He had intentionally bought a large bag!
After all, when returning from vacation, you couldn’t show up empty-handed to see your colleagues, could you?
Just then, in the break room, Zhang Wei rummaged through the overstuffed bag and pulled out the biggest meat bun!
He mumbled while taking a huge bite.
"Brother Su Bai! You’re not very generous! You finally get a vacation!"
"And when you come back, this is what you bring for the brothers?"
After saying his piece, he took another vicious bite of the meat bun!
Su Bai shot him a look and said irritably, "If you don’t want it, give it back!"
"Heh... Dream on!"
"I love meat buns more than anything!"
Zhang Wei unabashedly wolfed down the meat bun, then couldn’t help but lick his fingers!
’The juice... TSK TSK!’
’Delicious!’
The aroma of the meat buns also attracted the other colleagues from the Prison Suppression Bureau!
Even though they had just eaten breakfast, they couldn’t resist coming over and grabbing one.
They wolfed them down in big gulps, just like that.
The group ate the delicious food and sipped the wine, chatting about interesting events.
"Hey! Have you guys heard? Late last night, someone actually threw three... things... outside our prison."
A young Martial Artist from the Prison Suppression Bureau, clad in a red robe, said mysteriously after taking a big gulp of wine.
He was one of the guards on duty last night.
"Three things?"
One Martial Artist, his interest piqued, asked curiously, "What things? Don’t tell me someone is treating our prison like a garbage dump?"
Then, as if suddenly remembering something, his expression soured and he cursed angrily.
"Fuck!"
"It wasn’t some damn practitioner of the Demon Dao, was it?!"
"Throwing dog shit and manure at our prison again?"
Since its establishment, the Great Xia Prison had locked up countless vicious individuals from both the demon and devil paths.
Some of these practitioners of the Demon Dao didn’t dare attempt a prison break, nor did they risk large-scale retaliation. They could only resort to such despicable methods to disgust the staff of the Great Xia Prison!
In the past, such incidents weren’t uncommon.
Throwing black dog’s blood, stinking manure, rotting dog crap, foul-smelling eggs, and so on!
If you could think of a disgusting prank, they had probably pulled it!
"Nope!"
The young Martial Artist picked up a meat bun and said with a meaningful smile, "I bet you’ll never guess!"
"Alright! Stop keeping us in suspense, kid!"
Seeing him still playing the riddler, Zhang Wei slung an arm around his shoulder, and with a swift move...
...he snatched the meat bun from the man’s hand and wolfed it down!
’As expected!’
’Food is always better when snatched from someone else’s hands.’
’It just tastes more satisfying!’
Noticing the young Martial Artist’s slightly annoyed expression, Zhang Wei chuckled to himself.
Then, he said casually, "It couldn’t have been a few delicate maidens, could it?"
The Martial Artist slammed his hand on the table, a look of surprise on his face. "I can’t believe it, you actually guessed it!"
"Holy shit!"
Zhang Wei cursed with a laugh, "Don’t tell me they were girls from the Yicui Pavilion!"
"Now that’s where you’re wrong. This woman is in a much higher class than the girls from Yicui Pavilion!"
The young Martial Artist laughed. "This woman is one of the top courtesans from the Celestial Fragrance Pavilion! Her name is Qingluan, and the other two are her personal maids!"
"You’re not kidding, right?"
Zhang Wei’s jaw dropped, his expression one of utter disbelief!
’That’s a top courtesan from the Celestial Fragrance Pavilion!’
’How did she end up being delivered to the prison?’
’What?’
’No way... Did someone see that the brothers here are tired and decided to send us a little... entertainment?’
"Tsk... I’m in no mood to lie to you! All the brothers on duty last night know about it. Just ask them!"
"But... that doesn’t make sense, does it?"
"Why send a top courtesan from the Celestial Fragrance Pavilion here? It can’t really be for the brothers to... have some fun, can it?"
The young Martial Artist shook his head, his expression turning serious. "You might not believe this when I say it, but all three of them are disciples of the Soul-devouring Demon Sect!"
"Especially that famous courtesan from the Celestial Fragrance Pavilion. She’s the personal Tripod Furnace for a Saint Heir of the Soul-devouring Demon Sect!"
"And don’t underestimate them just because they’re women. In reality, all three are Extraordinary Realm experts!"
"That courtesan is a grandmaster at the Extraordinary Realm Ninth Layer!"
Holy cow!
Dropping a bombshell like that made everyone present gasp in shock!
The Soul-devouring Demon Sect!
It was the most mysterious of the Three Demonic Sects!
Where was their headquarters? What experts did they have within their ranks?
Even the upper echelons of the Great Xia Dynasty knew very little.
However, it was rumored that a certain lineage of disciples within the Soul-devouring Demon Sect specialized in the art of dual cultivation!
This lineage only recruited female disciples, each one a peerless beauty.
Their greatest skill was striking seductive poses, entrancing souls, and captivating the Heart Spirit!
Many experts from both the righteous and demonic paths had fallen for their trap, only to have their Cultivation and vital essence drained by the women’s Demon Skills!
They were left as cripples, finding even the simplest movements difficult!
’But then again...’
’It’s a terrifying thought, but also... strangely alluring!’
’After all, as the old saying goes!’
’"To die under a peony flower makes one a romantic ghost!"’
"Hehe! Right now, the three of them are in the B-Class Prison being interrogated!"
"In a little while, after the interrogation is over, you’ll be able to see them!"
The young Martial Artist patted his chest and declared with confidence.
Sure enough, not long after.
The group saw three criminals being escorted down a corridor in Zone B Prison by two young Prison Guards!
The three of them had faint auras, were covered in blood, and their hair was a mess, obscuring their faces.
But just from their silhouettes and their devilishly curvaceous figures, it was clear they were all rare beauties!
After watching the three women being led away, Zhang Wei slapped his thigh hard!
He beat his chest and stomped his feet. "What a pity! I’ve always been too broke to see the Cyan Simurgh Courtesan and... explore her depths!"
"I never thought my wish would be granted right here in the prison!"
"Life is truly unpredictable!"
Su Bai, standing to the side, ignored his crude remarks and turned to ask the young Martial Artist.
"Do you know who it was that brought those three to the prison?"
"Heh! You’ve asked the right person!"
The young Martial Artist said smugly, "I was one of the men on duty last night!"
"But it’s a shame!"
"My vision blurred for a moment, and I just saw three women being placed outside the prison!"
"I didn’t get a clear look at who did it!"
"Tsk... I reckon it was probably some senior expert who was once poisoned by this woman!"
the young Martial Artist voiced his speculation.
"Do the higher-ups in the prison know about this?" freeωebnovēl.c૦m
"Of course! When the higher-ups found out, they were blooming with joy!"
"After all, there’s no reason to turn down free merits!"
"But they definitely want to figure out who was responsible!"
"They’re probably still investigating now..."
the young Martial Artist said casually.
"Oh, right! The higher-ups also said that if we encounter anything like this again while on duty..."
"...we should just pretend we didn’t see anything, so as not to offend that senior!"
he added, as if remembering something else.
After all, a senior expert who selflessly serves the people, eliminates evil, and seeks no fame or fortune...
...is a rare sight in this day and age!
Hearing this, Su Bai nodded.
’A sense of relief washed over him.’
’Since the Prison Suppression Bureau’s higher-ups have tacitly approved of this, it’ll be much more convenient for him to do it again in the future!’
After chatting for a while longer, Su Bai received his assignment and began his patrol within the prison.
An hour later, Su Bai returned to his personal quarters.
As soon as he entered the room.
he checked the information on the three people who had been absorbed into the Purification Tripod!
