Chapter 851 You Haven’t Learned a Lesson
These soldiers were at least at the Martial King Realm, all holding spears in their hands. The chief was three captain-like soldiers with profound cultivation, all at the peak of the Martial Emperor Realm. They looked grim and solemn with an evil aura surging around. Obviously, they were all experienced experts who had been tested by numerous battles.
Such warriors who had come out of the hell-like battlefield had rich experience of fight and battle. They were much stronger than many sect disciples on the Land of Infinity.
“Hey, little bastard, let’s see where you can run to. Those who offend our miss will regret coming to this world. You’re a dead man today!” Granny Rong took a step forward complacently. She was almost swearing at Ding Hao, pointing at his nose.
“It seems that you haven’t learned a lesson.” Ding Hao shook his head. He raised his hand and slapped her ruthlessly again.
Darkness came over Granny Rong’s eyes. Her swollen face became numb again as if she had been hit by a giant hammer in the face. As she heard the sound of her cheekbones breaking, her eyes dulled and half of her face had caved in. She was blasted and flew backward again.
She didn’t even have time to scream.
The three captains were all startled. When they tried to stop Ding Hao, Granny Rong had already flown out and bumped into the wall on the street. They didn’t know whether she was dead or alive. Ding Hao’s strength was far beyond their imagination. With their strength, they couldn’t catch the trajectory of the energy of his casual wave just now.
The people inside the inn who were paying attention to the situation outside were shocked again.
This young man was too audacious.
“How dare you! How dare you hurt people in the face of the Black Armored Army!” The chief captain shouted.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Hundreds of soldiers of the Black Armored Army immediately drew the spears and sabers from their sheaths and surrounded Ding Hao.
Ding Hao smiled and said, “For some mad dogs, if I don’t teach them a lesson, they will bite people next time.” Speaking of it, he looked at the three captains and said, “Soldiers of the Black Armored Army are the most loyal soldiers of the God’s Palace. It’s your duty to guard the border and protect the people. It’s really surprising that you would drag in so many soldiers for these shrews.”
Hearing what Ding Hao said, the captain was at a loss for words.
Ding Hao’s calmness, extraordinary temperament, and powerful strength made the three captains a little afraid, and they were secretly guessing Ding Hao’s identity. If he was really born in a noble family of the God’s Palace, they could not afford to offend someone like him.
They were startled and then one of the captains said gently, “Sir, someone reported that you have injured the sixth miss of the City Lord’s Mansion. The Black Armored Army can’t stay aloof from the affair. Please come with us for investigation. It may be just a misunderstanding.”
Ding Hao smiled and said, “Fine.”
One black-armored soldier next to him immediately took out a pair of handcuffs and shackles that were shackled with specially made inscriptions.
Ding Hao looked at the three captains with a faint smile.
One of the captains shivered and suddenly turned around, shouting, “Bastards, get out of here! How can you handcuff the noble young master?” Then he turned to Ding Hao and said with a smile, “Military orders cannot be disobeyed. We have our duty and dare not practice favoritism. I hope you can cooperate with us and don’t embarrass us.”
Ding Hao laughed and stretched out his hands to be handcuffed without saying anything.
Crack!
His hands were shackled with specially made inscriptions.
The three captains breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, they were thinking that if Ding Hao was really the descendant of a noble family in God’s Palace, they would apologize sincerely later. However, they couldn’t afford to care so much.
The Black Armored Army ordered some soldiers to carry the unconscious Granny Rong and took Ding Hao away.
It was not until the Black Armored Army disappeared into the distant street that the people inside and outside the inn who had gathered around to watch the spectacle came back to life.
“He was brought away just like that? I thought that there would be a great battle.” Someone was not satisfied.
Another person sneered, “Idiot! Can’t you figure out that the young man volunteered to go with the Black Armored Army? He doesn’t look afraid at all. It seems that he doesn’t even care about the sixth miss of the City Lord’s Mansion at all.”
“Could it be that he is a peerless master who believed that no one can injure him?”
“Bullshit! That young man has an outstanding temperament. Only those who have been in power for a long time have that kind of aura. In my opinion, he must be the son of a big shot in God’s Palace. If so, I’m afraid that everyone in the City Lord’s Mansion will have to kneel down to apologize when they know the truth.”
Everyone was talking about Ding Hao.
Discussions of the incident gradually disappeared.
The inn owner, who thought he would fall on hard times, stood behind the counter for a while and felt a lingering fear in his heart. When he heard the discussions of the crowd, he suddenly remembered that the Chu and her brother were still in the inn. He would not dare to neglect them, so he sent a waiter to serve them. Unexpectedly, the waiter came back soon and said that the two distinguished guests had been in the room all the time and didn’t let anyone in.
The inn owner shook his head and had to give up.
After passing several illusionary formations along the winding road, Ding Hao was brought into the City Lord’s Mansion and was detained in the cell of the City Lord’s Mansion for the time being.
The City Lord’s Mansion was not small. It covered an area of one hundred acres, with pavilions, rockeries, gardens, and waterfalls in it, which looked like a fairyland.
However, along the way, Ding Hao could clearly feel that the guard inside the mansion seemed to be lax but the mansion was actually heavily guarded. Countless sentry posts and traps were set up, and masters were guarding the mansion, making it an impenetrable fortress. There was an atmosphere of solemnity between heaven and earth. A large number of Black Armored Army soldiers patrolled back and forth. There was a sentry every five steps and a blockade every ten steps.
Ding Hao nodded secretly because this finding made him sure that his speculations may be correct.
The three captains did not dare to neglect Ding Hao. They ordered the soldiers to prepare delicious food and drinks and immediately reported to their superiors.
However, for some unknown reason, the three captains did not return after a long time, and the vicious sixth miss and the shrews around her did not come to the cell to interrogate Ding Hao.
However, Ding Hao didn’t care about anything.
He set up a warning inscription formation around the cell. Later, he sat cross-legged on the bluestone board and began to circulate his Qi to cultivate.
In this world, the speed of Ding Hao’s cultivation was amazing. He could cultivate faster and faster.
In the past two months, Ding Hao had been cultivating while continuing his way. His Qi cultivation had improved rapidly, and he had continuously entered several minor realms. At the moment, he had entered the dual meridian and eight-apertured Martial Emperor Realm.
Ding Hao felt that eating, breathing, and sleeping seemed to be a form of cultivation for him in this world. His strength was increasing automatically at all times.
Ding Hao did not know whether other people who had come to this world from the Land of Infinity had the same cultivation speed as he did.
About six hours had passed away silently.
Although he could not see what was going on outside the cell, judging from the time, he was sure that it must be midnight.
Suddenly, a flurry of footsteps could be heard outside the cell. Then several people who seemed to be guards came in to change shifts. After an adjustment, four new guards stood behind the iron fences of inscription of the cell. They glanced at Ding Hao and began to talk.
“Hey, have you heard that the city lord is going to torture that devil woman again today?”
“It’s pitiful that a pretty young woman would be tortured like that. It’s said that her body is about to be dissected, leaving only a skeleton. Her flesh was cut off by the city lord with knives.”
“Nonsense. If so, wouldn’t she have died already?”
“What do you know? That devil woman is really powerful. It is said that she has an unparalleled recovery ability. Even if only broken bones were left on her body, her body would completely recover in an instant as long as her head is not broken and her divine soul was not be destroyed!”
“The reason why the city lord tortures the devil woman over and over again is that he wants to know this magical power. However, even if she had been tortured, she was unwilling to say a word. The lord sent by the God’s Palace will arrive tomorrow. If the city lord can’t get this magical power before tomorrow, he will never have a second chance.”
“These demon stars are all very strange. It is said that half a year ago when the first demon star reincarnated, God’s Palace sent masters to besiege and kill it. However, all the soldiers were killed and none of them came back alive…”
The guards surrounded the table under the torches and were still talking about it.
Right at this moment, with the sound of the inscription formation mechanism, the big iron gate was slowly opened.
A few strong shrews came in, surrounding the sixth miss of City Lord’s Mansion, who had been slapped away by Ding Hao in the lobby of the inn that day.
“Miss, he’s here. Captain Mo and his men have verified that he is just a wandering warrior who doesn’t belong to any sect. You can avenge now.” Granny Rong, whose half face was still swollen, came to the fence and stared at Ding Hao like a viper.
“Are they finally here?”
Ding Hao opened his eyes.
“Boy, you didn’t expect this to happen, did you?” Sixth miss’s beautiful eyes were as sharp as a blade. She stared at Ding Hao and sneered, “Where is the glory of your old days? If you fall into my hands, you will only be tortured.”
With that said, she waved her hand, ordering the guards to open the cell.
Ding Hao’s palm was handcuffed with inscriptions. Even he was an expert at the peak of the Martial Emperor Realm, his Qi cultivation had been completely suppressed. As a result, these women were not afraid of Ding Hao at all.
With the clicking sound of the mechanism, the iron fence with inscriptions slowly rose.
“Prepare the torture devices,” Granny Rong shouted in a cold voice.
The guards replied, and soon dozens of torture devices with assorted blood smudge were brought to the cell. They looked horrible and extremely gloomy. No one knew how many people had been tortured by these devices. Even the color had turned dark, all with a fishy smell. Some cracks of them were even filled with foams of white bones.
When the torture devices were placed in the room, a ghastly and evil aura had surged up.
“Tonight, you will be serviced by all these torture devices.” The sixth miss looked down at Ding Hao with a gloomy smile on her face. “You’ll watch your body being cut little by little, and you’ll experience real pain and fear.”
She was waiting to see Ding Hao’s look of shock and despair.
Unfortunately, she was let down.
Ding Hao stood up slowly, glanced at those torture devices, and then looked at Granny Rong who couldn’t wait any longer. He said to her with a smile, “It seems that you haven’t learned a lesson yet.”
