This was the first time Xiao s.h.i.+ had seen such rules. After he handed the items and stepped into the city, the first thing he saw was a huge fortress that existed in the city. This fortress was like a city within a city, but its entire body was dark red, emitting a ferocious and b.l.o.o.d.y aura.

There was a faint scene of collapse around the void he was in, as if the s.p.a.cetime he was in was different from this world. This dark red fortress was the largest prison in the Xingluo Province!

What a strong murderous aura! As soon as Xiao s.h.i.+ stepped into this city, he felt the b.l.o.o.d.y murderous aura that a.s.saulted his face, making him feel as if he had returned to the demonic faction. However, this baleful aura was all coming from the huge prison in the city.

On the way here, Xiao s.h.i.+ had already understood the largest prison in the Xingluo Province. From this, he knew that there were four different types of criminals in this prison.

The first was the heinous criminals in the Xingluo Territory. This didnt only include the Xingluo Province. There were also villains from other states.

The second was the various evil cults in the Xingluo Territory. These evil cults were even more harmful to the entire Xingluo Territory than the demonic forces. For example, the Seven Star Province back then was destroyed by the evil spirits and bizarre spirits produced by the evil cult. Although compared to the Cangyan Territory next door, there were not many evil cults in the Xingluo Territory, however, there were still a few evil cults lurking in the Xingluo Territory.

The third type of prisoners were all kinds of spirit bodies and anomalies, such as evil spirits and bizarre spirits. They belonged to two different spirit bodies.

The last one that was imprisoned was also the one with the most prisoners in this prison. That was the people from the demonic path factions. It was worth mentioning that Prison City happened to be at the border of the orthodox factions in Xingluo Province. It was adjacent to the demonic path.

Perhaps it was because of this that nearly half of the Xingluo Province belonged to the demonic factions. Therefore, there were many people of the demonic factions in the prison.

The reason why the position of warden tempted many of the Xingluo Army was because there was no war in the Xingluo Province now, and there was no need for the Xingluo Army to suppress them everywhere.

Therefore, the Xingluo Army usually did not have much to gain. In comparison, the jailers job was very profitable! As a result, many Xingluo Armys soldiers fought to be jailers.

If I want to become a jailer, I have to first become a member of the Xingluo Army. Although its not difficult for me to join the Xingluo Army with my ability and conditions, its very difficult for me to become a jailer.

The conditions to become a member of the Xingluo Army mainly depended on two things. One was apt.i.tude and talent. The other was the various ident.i.ties tests. It was to prevent people from evil cults or demonic forces from secretly infiltrating the Xingluo Army.

It was not difficult for Xiao s.h.i.+ to have apt.i.tude and talent. His ident.i.ty would not be directly detected as a member of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect. It could be said that it was not difficult for him to become the Xingluo Army.

The difficult part was becoming a jailer from the Xingluo Army. The position of jailer had always been coveted by many members of the Xingluo Army. If he wanted to become a jailer, he could not do it with powerful apt.i.tude and talent. No matter how talented he was, if he was only a newbie, it was impossible for him to become a jailer.

If one wanted to take on the role of a jailer, it would look at qualifications and seniority. The higher the qualifications, the higher the chance of becoming a jailer. It also depended on the lords trust in him. Only the Xingluo Army, who had gained the lords trust, could be a jailer.

Regardless of whether I join the Xingluo Army as a main body or a clone, I definitely wont be able to become a jailer in a short period of time. I would have to start low and work my way up. Too slow! 1 dont have that much time.

Xiao s.h.i.+ directly ruled out this method. This method was only suitable for Qianqi Mountain and was not suitable for jailers.

The most suitable method is to find the corpse of a jailer, and turn this jailers corpse into my clone. Then, as a jailer, Ill contact and investigate Xiang Zizhen. Xiao s.h.i.+s eyes flickered. However, there were also a few difficulties in this method.

First, he had to find the jailers corpse that was compatible with his soul. Secondly, the jailers corpse had to have sufficient strength and cultivation. It would be best if it was in the Martial Soul Realm.

And the most troublesome thing was, even if he used his soul to turn this dead jailer into his clone, he did not have the other partys memories. This way, even if he entered prison, he would be instantly exposed.

In terms of memories, I can use the information from the Heavenly Mystery Palace to investigate. Although the information 1 obtained cant be as complete as his memories, its enough for me to deal with the others and not reveal any flaws.

Xiao s.h.i.+ fell into deep thought. In this case, the key was to find the corpse of a jailer that was compatible with his soul and had the strength of the Martial Soul Realm.

I cant find the kind of jailers that everyone knows are dead. Its best to find those jailers who are missing and whose fate is unknown. Otherwise, Ill capture a lone jailer, kill him, and replace him.

After Xiao s.h.i.+ thought for a while, he decided to observe the city first. He would see if there was such a chance first. After two days of observation, Xiao s.h.i.+ realized that it was extremely difficult for him to implement this plan.

The jailers in Prison City spent most of their time in prison and rarely went out. There were also Martial Demon Realm experts holding down the city. Furthermore, there was more than one Martial Demon Realm expert,

Even if Xiao s.h.i.+ wanted to a.s.sa.s.sinate the jailers in the city, it was impossible for him to hide it from these Martial Demon Realm experts. The jailers corpse could not be found. There was no jailers grave in the city. Moreover, corpses that were resurrected from the tomb would also be treated as monsters.

This is a little tricky. Xiao s.h.i.+ frowned. He realized that it was impossible to find a suitable corpse in Prison City. He could only think of a way from the outside. Or, I need the help of some higher-level people.

Xiao s.h.i.+ immediately thought of Wu Muzhen.

As a Martial Demon Realm expert of the Xingluo Province, although Xiao s.h.i.+ had not asked about his exact ident.i.ty in the Xingluo Province, Wu Muzhen might have the ability to get a jailers corpse for him.

Thinking of this, Xiao s.h.i.+ contacted Wu Muzhen again. As the number one lackey of the Heavenly Mystery Palace, Wu Muzhen had always handled all the requests Xiao s.h.i.+ made dutifully.

However, when Xiao s.h.i.+ asked him if he could get his hands on the jailers corpse,

Wu Muzhen was in a dilemma. He did not dare to kill these jailers. With the jailers status in Xingluo Province, even a Martial Demon Realm expert like him did not dare to touch them. After all, these jailers were all people that the Lord of Xingluo Territory valued. Whoever dared to touch them would have to face the wrath of the Lord.

Xiao s.h.i.+ did not expect even Wu Muzhen to be helpless. He thought for a moment and asked, Can you find out the whereabouts of the jailers who are not in the city?

Since Wu Muzhen did not dare to kill him, Xiao s.h.i.+ planned to hunt by himself. In any case, he was replacing the soul, not killing in the conventional sense. As long as he hid it well, the lord would not notice anything amiss.

Well Wu Muzhen was sweating profusely. He could do whatever Xiao s.h.i.+ had instructed him to do in the past. However, this time, it was really beyond his ability. This was because he had already exhausted his energy when he used the Heavenly Mystery Eye to investigate the disciples of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect. Now, he could no longer use the Heavenly Mystery Eye to investigate.

This made him anxious. He was worried that if he couldnt do it this time, Xiao s.h.i.+ wouldnt ask him to do anything in the future. After some internal struggle, he gritted his teeth. If you want the whereabouts of these jailers, I can recommend someone to you, Palace Master. Hes a high-ranking member of the Xingluo Army and also a member of our Heavenly Mystery Palace. He should be able to find out the whereabouts of these jailers.

Xiao s.h.i.+ nodded. He should indeed develop another lackey in the Heavenly Mystery Palace. Just one lackey was clearly starting to be insufficient..
