Supreme Emperor of Swords

Chapter 852 Underground Hall

Hearing the words “learned a lesson”, Granny Rong quivered and subconsciously took a few steps back.

She didn’t want to be beaten by Ding Hao anymore.

However, in the next moment, when she saw the shackles on Ding Hao’s hands, she suddenly came back to life and said with a smirk, “You are the one who should learn a lesson, little bastard. Under the circumstances, how can you still be stubborn? You will regret what you have done. You can’t escape from the shackles.”

The sixth miss seemed to have realized something as well and said to the guards, “Take another pair of shackles and circle his ankles so that he couldn’t escape.”

Thinking of the strength Ding Hao displayed that day, the sixth miss was still a little worried.

Ding Hao sneered.

He did not intend to argue with these reckless women any longer but their behaviors aroused Ding Hao’s interest. After deliberating for a moment, he decided not to struggle, and he simply allowed the guards to put shackles on his ankles.

The sixth miss was completely relived now. A grotesque and manic smile appeared on her beautiful face. She said, “You won’t escape tonight. Guards, torture him!”

Those shrews approached Ding Hao with a sneer.

Among them, Granny Rong couldn’t wait any longer.

However, their smiles froze on their faces soon as if they had seen a ghost.

In front of them, Ding Hao stretched himself, yawned, and then gently struggled with his hands. The inscription shackles that could suppress a master in the Martial Grand Emperor Realm were instantly broken like rags, and the inscription patterns on them dimmed. He rubbed the shackles in his hands as if he was kneading dough, kneaded them into a black iron ball, and threw it to the ground.

“Is that what you rely on? It’s too fragile,” Ding Hao said with a smile.

In the eyes of the sixth miss and the shrews, Ding Hao’s smile was like the grim smile of the Death.

“Oh... Ho ho... Ah...” Granny Rong was scared out of her wits. When the voice was made from her throat subconsciously, her body began to tremble with fear.

“The city lord had invested a huge sum of money on inviting a forging grandmaster to make these God-imprisoning Shackles. How could they be crushed like dough?”

“Oh my god, is this young man a god?”

“Maybe you should be tortured by these devices. I think vicious women like you often used them to torture those innocent people.” As Ding Hao took a step forward, the shackles on his ankles broke with a click.

“You...” When the sixth miss came back to life, she looked pale. She turned into a stream of light and was about to escape.

As Ding Hao waved his hand gently, an invisible force surged out.

Although the sixth miss had escaped to the door, she was pulled back by the invisible force. She struggled in panic and reached out to grab the door frame, but it didn’t work. Her nails had been cut off, and she still flew backward and fell at Ding Hao’s feet.

The other five shrews, including Granny Rong, screamed and rushed out crazily.

“It seems that your servants are not loyal!”

Ding Hao sneered and raised his hand. The five evil old women fell down to the ground like gourds. They stumbled back and bumped into each other, all screaming.

In the blink of an eye, the remaining four guards were knocked unconscious by Ding Hao. He just planted a restriction formation in their bodies and threw them into the cell.

Ding Hao glanced at the torture devices that had been set up.

“Oh, no...” Thinking that Ding Hao was going to torture her, the sixth miss was so scared that she screamed, and a stink came from her crotch. It turned out she was so scared that she peed her pants.

“When you’re torturing people, you’re hard-hearted. When it’s your turn, you’re scared out of your wits. People like you are really pitiful.” Ding Hao raised his leg and destroyed her Dantian.

Then, Ding Hao crippled his cultivation of the other five wicked women in the same way. Except for the sixth miss, everyone else in the cell was slapped and fainted.

He had already set up a soundproof formation in the cell before taking actions so that he did not have to worry about being noticed by the people outside.

After doing all that, he tidied up the cell, picked up the sixth miss like picking up a chicken, and asked, “Where did you detain the reincarnated devil woman?”

The sixth miss looked at Ding Hao desperately and said, “You... are you her accomplice?”

Ding Hao sneered, “I don’t want to hear any nonsense.”

“Will you let me go if I tell you?” The sixth miss’s eyes lit up and began to bargain.

Ding Hao nodded and said, “Tell me where the reincarnated devil woman is detained and the forces of the guards, and I will spare your life.”

“How do I know if you’re going to keep your word? Let me go first.” The sixth miss was still bargaining with him.

Ding Hao said with a cold smile, “I am not that patient. Don’t make a mistake. If you talk nonsense again, I will forcibly search your sea of consciousness and turn you into a delirious idiot. Then I will strip you off and throw you on the street. I believe that people will be very interested in the naked body of the daughter of City Lord.”

Sixth miss’s face instantly turned pale. Realizing that the person in front of her was someone who had ruthlessly slapped beautiful women like her, she immediately recounted everything she knew.

Ding Hao had been monitoring the fluctuations of her Divine Senses with his Mind Essential. It seemed that the City Lord’s daughter was not lying.

He slapped her backhand and then flashed out of the cell.

As expected, it was already midnight outside.

There were only a few stars in the sky. The silver moonlight sprinkled on the ground and scattered down along the leaves of the tree. The shadows danced on the bluestone floor in the wind like ghosts.

It was the backyard of the City Lord’s Mansion, so there were not many people here.

Ding Hao was detained and escorted all the way here during the day, so he had already memorized the route. He may get lost in the deep mountains and forests, but in such a mansion, his sense of direction worked well.

He walked in the corridor with light footsteps and soon arrived at the front yard.

Countless guards and soldiers passed by him along the way, but strangely, they seemed not to have seen Ding Hao at all and patrolled without any expression.

With Ding Hao’s current cultivation of Divine Senses, he could completely isolate other people’s vision and perception. For warriors under the Martial Emperor Realm, they could not sense his existence even if they stand face to face.

There were nearly no defenses to prevent Ding Hao from entering the City Lord’s Mansion.

Finally, he came to the most magnificent main hall in the mansion.

The places near the main hall were all brightly illuminated. Torches and inscriptions were everywhere, illuminating every corner of the hall. There were no other buildings or trees within 50 meters of the main hall. Anyone who approached the main hall in this open area would be discovered immediately.

Ding Hao looked at the hall from the distance, and his Divine Senses were released like tides.

According to the sixth miss, this hall was the place where Mo Yuncong, the city lord lived and worked, and it was the most heavily guarded. In the depths of the hall, there was an entrance to the water dungeon, and the reincarnated devil woman was detained there. It was impregnable because at least hundreds of masters were secretly guarding it.

The findings of his Divine Senses were similar to what the sixth miss had said.

Illusionary formations and fatal formations may be hidden under the bluestone ground, and many guards were also hidden in the dark around the hall.

Ding Hao calculated that it was about four hours left before dawn and went straight to the main hall.

An invisible transparent mist surged around him like ripples, enveloping his whole body. His feet were about two or three inches above the ground. He approached the hall step by step without touching the ground.

Ding Hao was a master of inscription formation. Just now, he had already known the inscription formations around the main hall after a brief observation. As a result, he did not trigger any traps or warning signs along the way.

No one could find any trace of him.

In this way, Ding Hao approached the hall easily.

According to the information provided by the sixth miss, Ding Hao quietly entered the hall like a ghost. He avoided the attention of the guards in the hall and stepped into the depths of the hall.

It was the core area of the Mo Yuncong, city lord of the Northern Land City. Compared to the surroundings heavily guarded, there was no one in the depths of the hall.

It seemed that Mo Yuncong had entered the water dungeon to interrogate the devil woman, so no one dared to enter his room.

The room was magnificent and luxurious.

Ding Hao bypassed the crystal desk and came to the hanging wall at the back. He slightly twisted the vase on it, and the wall opened silently, revealing a gloomy passageway behind. Step by step, the stairs led to the depths of the underground.

Ding Hao regulated his body to perfect peak conditions and slowly entered the passageway.

After walking down more than 200 steps, he was more than 40 meters under the ground. Finally, a parallel passageway appeared in front of him. He walked more than 20 meters forward, turned left, and made several turns. Buddhist shrines on both sides of the wall had already been opened. There were silver crystals releasing mists, slightly illuminating the passageway.

After some time that a cup of tea would take, the sounds of water splashing could finally be heard.

Ding Hao walked forward step by step while he was hiding.

All of a sudden, the lights all lit up, and an extremely spacious underground hall appeared in front of him. The wall made of white jade was shining like pure silver in the lights. Hundreds of night pearls were inlaid in the suspended ceiling above his head, lighting up the whole space like daytime.

The smell of blood came to Ding Hao, and it covered him in an instant.

When Ding Hao looked up, 50 masters of the Black Armored Army were standing orderly. A middle-aged man in a black robe with red hair, a gloomy face, and an aquiline nose was holding two knives as delicate and sharp as scalpels in his hands. He was standing in front of a human-shaped torture device.

The human-shaped torture device was standing on the ground, and a naked woman was tightly tied to it. She was covered with blood and looked extremely miserable. Her long legs, which should have been slender, had been peeled into pale bones, without even a trace of flesh on them.

The flesh on her arms and abdomen were cut off as well.

It was a creepy scene as if part of a person’s body had been grafted onto a dried skeleton. It was extremely gloomy and weird. Ordinary people would almost throw up the overnight meal in their stomach when they saw it.
