From far away, they could hear the mournful cries of the people. The cries were heart-piercing, causing people to tremble with fear.
There was also the sound of constant fighting. It seemed that something had come out of the prison.
Gu Hua slowly stepped onto the flight of stairs that was made from heavy stones and followed the guard's footsteps as he headed in the direction of the flickering lights.
As he went deeper, the cold and gloomy aura became colder and colder. It was the smell of a dead person that came from underground.
Gu Hua slightly clenched her fists and told herself that she had to remain calm. Even if Gu Qiansheng and his wife were inside, she mustn't panic.
Soon, they reached the underground. The smell of blood came from not too far away. The general did not hesitate to hear the guards' painful cries. He led his men and rushed out!
Only then did Gu Hua Wei clearly see what the underground prison looked like.
This was a basement with a depth of almost fifty meters. There were ten cells, and each cell was built with the toughest foundation stones of the Nine Nations. One could see the prisoners inside through the black iron bars.
Gu Hua used her spiritual sense to probe them. Gu Qiansheng and Lin Ruoxi were in the third cell, and they weren't separated. Gu Hua silently glanced at them, lowered her eyes, and quickly caught up to the guards in front of them.
The location of the accident was the tenth cell. The stench of blood was coming from there. Looking up, one could see that someone had been injured or even killed.
The guards in the underground prison were severely injured and fell to the ground. A man in blood-red clothes stood outside the iron bars, and behind him was the look of someone tearing open the bars.
It was a young man around the age of twenty whose messy hair was almost dyed red with blood, and was stinking and sticking to his face. In the messy mess of hair, one could only vaguely see his disgusting dirty face and the corner of his mouth, which for some reason was covered with blood.
The man's clothes were also completely stained with blood. They were filthy and tattered, worse than the beggars in the capital who begged on the streets.
His eyes were red and dull as he looked at the crowd that surrounded him. A trace of undetectable panic flashed across his eyes. He then instinctively bared his teeth at the crowd, showing a brutal scene.
"General!" An injured guard walked up and knelt on the ground. "This prisoner is usually quiet and honest, but today, he suddenly went crazy for no apparent reason. He tore open the door of the cell and injured many of his brothers with his bare hands. The most shocking thing is …"
The guard sounded hesitant, his eyes twinkling.
"What is it?" The high-ranking officer's gaze turned cold.
"He can even drink human blood!" Many of the guards here had already been bitten.
"Ridiculous!" The high-ranking officer firmly locked onto the blood clothed man. He waved his hand and the long sword in his hand stabbed straight towards the colorless man, directly piercing towards the man's heart!
The prisoners in the underground prison were either people with strange identities or people with respected identities who were destined to die. No matter which type they belonged to, no one would pursue their deaths here.
The man looked at the sword coming closer and closer in a daze. The sword turned into a black shadow in his eyes, until he could not retreat.
The man, on the other hand, was like a god helping him. He dodged to the side and aimed a light punch at the general's waist, the general had gone through hundreds of battles and flipped over to dodge. His long sword danced like a beautiful flower, this time changing the path of attack, directly aiming at the man's neck.
This time, the man did not dodge the commander, but reached out to grab the menacing sword. His dirty fingers did not leave a drop of blood, and the general was surprised.
"Prince Jin, all these years have been good."
"Prince Jin?" The man in red whispered these words. His voice was indifferent and lifeless. His empty eyes were filled with curiosity. "Who is the Duke Jin?"
Hearing this, the high-ranking officer laughed instead of getting angry. Indeed, it was something that had been forgotten, wasn't it?
"Your highness, you have forgotten, and you will not be sad on the road to the Yellow Springs."
Taking advantage of the man's moment of absent-mindedness, he stabbed the sword towards the man's chest. When the man reacted, he let out a sharp shout, which was neither happy nor sad, and there was a sense of loss in his voice. He used his hand to grab the sword and let it penetrate through him.
The high-ranking officer was caught off guard and cried out in alarm. He wanted to throw the man out, but it was clear that he couldn't move this incomparably strong man!
"Trash, why are you still standing?!" The high-ranking officer couldn't get rid of his anger and shouted at the guard who was already in a daze, "Why are you still not coming over to subdue the criminals?!"
The guard at the side hurriedly rushed over. Before he could even get close, the blood-clothed youth released the somewhat crazy high-ranking officer. He nonchalantly pulled out the longsword that had been stabbed into his stomach and slashed across the high-ranking officer's neck, causing blood to spurt out!
The transformation happened in an instant!
No one would have thought that a famous general would die in the hands of a prisoner!
The man wielded the longsword in his hand, and the blood that had been saved from his chest seemed to be undetectable. Facing the guards that rushed over, he slashed them one by one, quickly ending their lives as if he was harvesting straw.
Gu Hua stayed at the back. Because no one had announced it, no one else had come in. But even if they went out like this, it would still be as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
Very soon, there were guards who wanted to rush out to spread the news. This prisoner was a madman who killed without batting an eyelid. Without any reinforcements, none of them would be able to escape! Gu Hua silently gathered a wind blade in his sleeve and aimed it at the guard's vitals and gently swung it!
That guard died with grievance, and no one knew who killed him even in death!
Gu Hua quietly stood at the side, waiting until the killer had killed everyone in front of her. Then, step by step, he walked towards her while stepping on the blood.
The sword in his hand was already stained with blood, and droplets of it fell upon the cold and silent prison, causing people's hair to stand on end.
On the other hand, Miss Gu's thoughts were still wandering:
The prisoners here are of good quality
The heck! Now that the fight was like this, no one could scream for help
Could it be that these are all big shots #
Miss Gu's brain was opened wide, until the man held her sword and stood by her side.
The man in red stared at her with his dead eyes. The stench coming from his body almost made Miss Gu want to puke.
Although this man's style was handsome and his killing posture was handsome and dashing, this feeling was absolutely terrible!
Gu Hua held her breath as she looked at the man who wanted to make a hole in her face. She wrinkled her nose and asked, "What's the matter?"
The man silently retracted his gaze and looked at the guard who was so dead that he couldn't be more dead. The corner of his lips curled up slightly as he said, "Woman."
