I Transmigrated As A Prison Guard And Suppressed The Princess

Chapter 66: They’re All Here

“Hmph!” Yin Jijie cursed resentfully.

“We’re all in the same boat now. If anything happens to me, I’ll definitely expose the fact that you stole the ‘Celestial Varg Guards’ manual.”

“How dare you!” The old man blurted out angrily.

“Want to try your luck?” Yin Jijie refused to budge an inch.

Xia Ming didn’t dare take the gamble. If he failed, as the demon had just said, the entire Viceroy Ming’s family relations would be executed and their possessions confiscated. Their Ming legacy would be wiped out.

“Hurry! The old fart is getting closer,” Yin Jijie urged them.

“I know a secret passage. It’s at the Jade Manor. We can use it to get out of the capital city,” Xia Ming gave in to his demand in humiliation.

“The capital city has been sealed off by an array formation. Does your secret passage work?”

Xia Ming’s expression was icy cold. “The secret passage was built with Celestial Great Divine Stones!”

“That’s a lot of money,” Yin Jijie gasped.

The Celestial Great Divine Stones could break through any array formations and restrictions.

However, these stones were extremely precious. Each piece was priceless and there were very few of them.

“He’s coming. Take me there quickly,” Yin Jijie said.

Suddenly,

the old man’s expression changed drastically as he stared out in horror, his eyes filled with disbelief. “How dare he attack here?”

He quickly grabbed Xia Ming and rushed outside.

Yin Jijie ran after them. He couldn’t be bothered to conceal his presence anymore. His surging demonic aura erupted as he invoked his evasion technique at its maximum power. He followed closely behind them in a whirl of demonic wind.

Bang!

As soon as they fled, a terrifying beam of sword light slashed down devastatingly on the palace building.

Almost everything within a thousand feet was decimated.

Looking at Yin Jijie, who had escaped, and Xia Ming with the old man, Old Gu sneered. “Xia Ming, you have some nerve! How dare you collude with the wolf demon to commit crimes!”

Xia Ming hurriedly explained, “Old Gu, this isn’t what you think…”

However, Yin Jijie interrupted him at this moment and exposed his misdeeds. “Old fart, you’re right! Not only is he in cahoots with me, but he also secretly stole the ‘Celestial Varg Guards’ manual.”

He whipped out the ‘Celestial Varg Guards’ training manual and raised it high.

“See? I got this ‘Celestial Varg Guards’ manual from him.”

“You’re slandering me!” Xia Ming almost died of an apoplectic fit.

“I swear to the Lunar Howling Varg Tribe’s Wolf God that everything I said is true. If I’m lying, I’ll die a horrible death!” Yin Jijie added with a jeer.

“You! Shut up!” Xia Ming yelled, his face savage and his eyes burning with rage.

“That’s the truth. There’s no point in quibbling.”

Old Gu was absolutely incensed. He glared at Xia Ming, eyes ablaze with rage. “Beast! How dare you betray us and steal the ‘Celestial Varg Guards’ manual? Are you trying to stage a coup?”

With that, he reached out in the air with a vicious grab.

Infinite Immense Righteous Energy spun wildly and converged into a thousand-foot-long gigantic sword that appeared in the air. As he attacked in fury, the sword slashed fiercely at Xia Ming.

“Gu, how dare you attack the prince without any evidence!” The old man spat out in disdain.

Following that, he drew out the Blood Light Saber. The blade was red like blood, and a powerful aura of a numinous treasure emanated from it.

“Terrifying Dragon Mortal Slashing Saber Technique!”

He slashed out hundreds of sharp blade lights in a row, each one more than a hundred feet long. Instantly, the blades came plummeting down in an overpowering force.

The saber beams that filled the sky slashed down collectively at the Immense Righteous Energy sword.

“A good opportunity!” Yin Jijie’s eyes flashed momentarily.

Taking advantage of the two old experts’ furious exchange, Yin Jijie fled towards the Jade Manor.

He was confident that once he got there, he would be able to find the entrance to the secret passage.

“Gu! The wolf demon is gone,” Xia Ming shouted in a panic.

Old Gu was stunned and prepared to attack again to take them down.

Looking at the fleeing Yin Jijie, with the ‘Celestial Varg Guards’ manual still on him, he shouted angrily, “Hand over the ‘Celestial Varg Guards’ manual!”

“Here, take it!” Yin Jijie retorted in fury.

Seeing that Old Gu was about to catch him again, he frantically retrieved the ‘Celestial Varg Guards’ manual and flung it at Xia Ming.

Under everyone’s gaze, the ‘Celestial Varg Guards’ manual landed just ten steps away from him.

“Your Highness, please leave quickly! It will be too late if you don’t leave now!” The old man shouted urgently to him.

“Let’s go!” Xia Ming was a decisive man.

Although he could not reach the manual now, he had memorized the contents.

The old man led the way towards the Jade Manor.

Old Gu was stunned at this sudden turn of events. Just as he was about to reach for the ‘Celestial Varg Guards’ manual, he watched the trio fleeing in the same direction. It aroused deep suspicion in his mind.

Before he could think further,

the men from the God Enforcement Division and the Forbidden Martial Guards arrived.

The Deputy Chief Divine Constable said, “Old Gu, go after them first. Leave this to us!”

“All right!” Old Gu agreed.

With a light tap of his foot, he sped after them.

There were the only two groups of people left in the palace compound.

The Deputy Chief Divine Constable said, “The ‘Celestial Varg Guards’ manual is very important. I’ll take care of it! When I meet His Majesty later, you’ll get your share of the credit.”

The Forbidden Martial Guards naturally did not agree. They were not fools.

“It belongs to whoever has it.”

Initially they wanted the whole manual for themselves. Why would they give half to others?

“Bullsh*t! You guys from the God Enforcement Division are unreliable. It is better for us, the Forbidden Martial Guards, to hold on to such an important thing.”

A stalemate ensued.

Neither side was willing to back down. In the end, they started fighting each other.

At this moment, Xiao Ran who had followed his purifying spiritual force injected into the wolf demon earlier, arrived at this place.

Standing in the dark, he watched the two sides fighting. They were not holding back and going all out for blood.

“They’re so ruthless towards their own people?” Xiao Ran wondered with pursed lips.

He looked at the ‘Celestial Varg Guards’ manual lying on the ground and discreetly reached out in the air to retrieve it without being noticed. He flipped through the pages and ascertained that it was authentic.

After reciting softly for a while,

he reproduced a book with a similar appearance and placed it back where he took the original.

He looked at his masterpiece and nodded in satisfaction. “After all the hard work, I have to give you guys something to look forward to!”

He then turned and left.

With his Traversing the Heavens in Twelve Steps activated to the maximum, he took the twelve steps. His traveling speed increased twelve-fold as he hunted them down until he reached the Jade Manor.

In the location where a massive pavilion used to stand,

there was only ruins. Many bodies were lying on the ground. It was unknown whether they were dead or alive.

A secret passage was revealed at the man-made rockery in the backyard.

“These people sure know how to have fun.”

Upon entering the secret passage, he looked at the Celestial Great Divine Stones lining the surrounding walls and sighed. “And they are very rich too.”

He scooped some of the stones down and shoved them into his Seven Treasures Rainbow Jade Belt.

After leaving the capital city,

he pursued for about 50 miles before he chanced upon Old Gu and a white-haired old man exchanging blows in the sky. The majestic Immense Righteous Energy and the dazzling saber energy were being launched in an intense flurry of actions.

Throughout the entire battle, Old Gu had the absolute upper hand. He exerted his power to suppress the other party while concurrently raining blows on him. However, there was no sign of Yin Jijie or Xia Ming.

“Where are the two of them?” Xiao Ran wondered with a puzzled frown.

He scanned and detected the location of his purifying spiritual force. Yin Jijie was very close to him, less than thirty miles to the southeast.

“Let me go and deal with this wolf demon first.”

He then went in pursuit of the wolf demon.

In a dense forest,

Xia Ming kept running for his life, not daring to look back. Even though his spirit energy was practically depleted, he continued running at high speed.

He knew that once he stopped, and the people from the Imperial Court caught up with him, it would be the end of the road for him.

He had to return to Moon Gazing Prefecture before that happened.

Only when he reached there would he be safe.

“You’re pretty fast with your short legs!” A sinister laugh rang out as Yin Jijie walked out from the bushes in front of him.

Gasp!

Xia Ming came to a screeching halt. He forced himself to remain calm, and backed away. “You… I thought you escaped? Why are you here?”
