Chapter 1098 - Evil Emperor Is Released from Prison (1/2)

In the prison belonging to the Ministry of Punishment in Beijing, heavy shackles and chains dragged on the ground, creating loud and piercing clanging sounds. Evil King walked slowly among the prisoners with a face livid with rage.

When he walked out of his cell, he felt as if a century had passed. He noticed a few other imprisoned players silently casting him strange and thought-provoking gazes, and his expression became even more sour. He wanted to immediately kill them to silence them, destroy their corpses to hide the evidence of his shame, and leave this accursed place.

Unfortunately, his qi was sealed, and his hands and feet were bound by shackles that weighed heavily on him. Even the Moksha Realm NPC guards beside him, who were in charge of escorting him, could push him down on the ground with just one finger.

“Hiss…”

At the moment the main door to the prison in the Ministry of Punishment opened, a strong ray of light shot in, and the group of prisoners all used their hands to cover their eyes. At the same time, they also had delight appear on their faces.

“Prisoner Wang Erlong, your sentence is over. You can come out now.

“Prisoner Zhao Jun, your sentence is over. You can come out now.

Evil Emperor was fifth in line.

“Prisoner Evil Emperor!”

The NPC guards did not care about who had a great reputation in World of Martial Arts. This was the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, and there were plenty of great martial artists here. They could lock up whoever dared to cause trouble under the eyes of the imperial court or even kill them on the spot.

Hence, even if Evil Emperor enjoyed the title of the strongest in the world, the NPC guards were not cordial to him or took extra care of him.

“Your sentence is over. You can come out now.”

Evil Emperor was not afraid of the guards’ fierce gaze. He slowly took two steps forward and allowed the guards to help him remove the shackles on his feet and hands.

“I hope I don’t see you again in prison, or else, your sentence will be prolonged by another day, understand?”

The accumulation of might over a prolonged period of time had caused the guards to be able to put up an imposing presence out of sheer habit. Evil Emperor and the others had not had their qi unlocked either, and once the group of guards turned around and left, they noticed that the entrance of the Ministry of Punishment was just nearby. There were six Inaction Realm guards standing nearby, and they stared at the group with great hostility in their eyes.

“Let’s go…”

“Let’s go.”

Aside from Evil Emperor, the other prisoners did not dare say even a single word during the entire time they were released. It was only at that moment that they dared look at each other and leave the prison of the Ministry of Punishment.

Evil Emperor was the last to leave the prison.

When he got out, he saw a few figures run into the restaurants nearby, and some of them craned their heads to look at them when they were in the crowd. They were all people who were imprisoned with him, and no one knew whether they were reminiscing the time they spent in jail with Evil Emperor.

At the moment he left the Ministry of Punishment, his sealed acupressure points were automatically opened, and waves of qi slowly filled up his limbs before it started circulating in him.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The sound of air being pushed rose, and black shadows shot in front of Evil Emperor from the crowd nearby. There were a total of forty-seven people who came over. Flame Wolf and Peach Blossom led the team, and they stood with their backs straight around Evil Emperor.

“Leader!”

Their voices sounded dark, but firm and domineering.

The imposing presence among this group of top-class elites instantly intimidated the crowd surrounding them that they fell absolutely silent. Countless gazes were filled with shock and fear as they surveyed this group of people.

Evil Emperor initially said nothing. It was only when Flame Wolf and the others showed up that Evil Emperor’s expression became slightly better.

Peach Blossom took one step forward.

Evil Emperor understood why she did this. He picked up the medicinal pill that was the size of a longan from Peach Blossom’s hands and tossed it into his mouth without even looking at it. Then, he asked, “Are all preparations made?”

Flame Wolf nodded. “Based on your instructions, Class One Hall, Blood Alliance, and the people in the sects under Dream Clouds’ hands have all set out. There are four hundred thousand people gathered outside the city, and there are fewer than fifty thousand people left in Beijing.”

“Let’s go,” Evil Emperor said those two words faintly.

*****

“He’s here!”

“Evil Emperor has been released from prison, hurry and notify—”

“Those are the people from Wild Wolves! Isn’t Class One Hall being too flashy? They even came forth to escort him? Why does this feel like the moment before a life and death gamble in a casino?”

Evil Emperor was escorted while he was surrounded by Wild Wolves and Class One Hall elites. The group jumped on their horses and forced the crowd to make way for them on the busy streets of Beijing as their horses galloped forth. They rushed outside the city.

This news soon spread through all of Beijing.

*****

Whoosh!

Numerous torches burned brightly under the dark sky outside Beijing.

Under those torches were a large group of people. They stood close to each other, and hundreds of thousands of people surrounded all of Beijing, but they were incredibly quiet. The scene was so magnificent that it was scary, so much so that many people who originally wanted to go out of the city stopped moving when they saw the lineup outside.

Rumble! Rumble!

Evil Emperor, Wild Wolves, and the elites from Class One Hall all rode out of the city.

Even Dream Clouds, who usually did not show up in her army, sat on her horse with a stern expression. Her gaze was sharp. Once she got out of the city, she surveyed the area. More than two hundred top-class elites with extraordinary presences quietly rode out from the sides of the army and surrounded Dream Clouds.

“We’ve been nursing this aggrievance for a week…”

When Dream Clouds said these words, her tone was dark, and she instantly stirred up the hearts of the countless members around her.

Many people lowered their heads and gritted their teeth.

The silence lasted for a few seconds.

Dream Clouds raised her head, and when she spoke again, her voice was so loud that all the people within a circular area of one-third of a mile could hear her clearly. “Today, we will get rid of this humiliation we suffered!”

Her words were simple, but she still managed to state what Dream Clouds, Class One Hall, and all the affiliated forces wanted to do. Soon, countless people responded to her call.
