Chapter 221: Dungeon
Wu State Capital, Xiangshan Garden.
This was the center of Wu State’s Earth Net. A large amount of intelligence would arrive here, and many decisions were made here. Only extremely important intelligence would be reported to Archean Mountain.
“Go in.” In a dungeon in Xiangshan Garden, Meng Dajiang entered with cuffs on his hands and feet. With a clang, he silently walked to the wall and sat down against it.
I’ve finally been exposed. Meng Dajiang lowered his head.
The two Godfiends standing outside the prison shook their heads when they saw this.
“It’s Senior Brother Meng’s father. He actually colluded with the Skydemon Sect!”
“Who would have thought that?”
“If it weren’t because I was investigating other cases and had happened to discover this intelligence, we would really have allowed Meng Dajiang to keep hiding.”
The two Godfiends left immediately. It was impossible for Meng Dajiang to escape Xiangshan Garden’s dungeons with his strength alone.
...
The Godfiends in Xiangshan Garden discussed the case amongst themselves. Xiangshan Garden was the center of Wu State’s Earth Net. After handling many cases, the cases of Godfiends colluding with the Skydemon Sect coming to light wouldn’t have attracted so much attention. However, the person in question was Meng Dajiang, father to Meng Chuan! This attracted the attention of many Godfiends in Wu State’s Xiangshan Garden.
They did not dare to delay the case and interrogated Meng Dajiang that very day.
“Meng Dajiang, I’ll ask. You answer.” A man and woman were in charge of interrogating Meng Dajiang.
“Okay.” Meng Dajiang sat there and calmly answered one question after another.
...
“Marquis.” The female Godfiend in charge of the interrogation found Marquis Gong Xu, who was drinking alone in a restaurant.
“This is the interrogation statement of Meng Chuan’s father, Meng Dajiang.” The female Godfiend handed the dossier over respectfully. “Also, all the evidence we found from our investigations are included.”
Marquis Gong Xu had a square face and he looked solemn and cold.
At that moment, he received the dossier and frowned slightly. “Meng Dajiang had suffered great humiliation because he was a mortal. That’s why he risked his life to become stronger. He even became a Demon Annihilation Guild assassin? He even colluded with the Skydemon Sect? He did everything to enhance his strength?”
“What kind of humiliation did he suffer that made him go to such crazy extents?” asked Marquis Gong Xu.
“He refuses to say it, no matter what we do,” said the female Godfiend.
Marquis Gong Xu frowned.
“Marquis, how should we settle this?” asked the female Godfiend nervously. She was only an Indestructible Godfiend and not an inner sect disciple of Archean Mountain. Now, powerful Godfiends were fighting everywhere. The weak Godfiends were in charge of intelligence. Marquis Gong Xu was mainly in charge of overseeing Wu State. His role in Earth Net was only a secondary appointment.
He left the trivial matters to the Godfiends under him.
“The evidence is irrefutable,” said Marquis Gong Xu indifferently. “Since Meng Dajiang has confessed, we will naturally deal with him as required.”
“Execution?” the female Godfiend asked.
“Executing a Godfiend requires Archean Mountain’s approval,” said Marquis Gong Xu. “Report all the evidence to Archean Mountain. Let Archean Mountain decide.”
“Yes.” The female Godfiend nodded.
...
“Senior Brother Meng, your father, Meng Dajiang, colluded with the Skydemon Sect. The evidence is conclusive. Now, he’s imprisoned in Wu State’s Xiangshan Garden...”
“Senior Brother Meng, the Wu State’s Earth Net has already confirmed your father’s death sentence. They have reported it to Archean Mountain for further approval...”
On this day, five Godfiends in Wu State Capital wrote letters to Meng Chuan. Only ten Godfiends knew of this case intimately, but half of them wrote letters to Meng Chuan. This showed Meng Chuan’s influence.
In the past few years, Meng Chuan had gone on rescue missions that were within 500 kilometers around Gu Mountain Prefecture. He had saved many people in the Wu State and the Qian State. Ever since Meng Chuan killed Greater Demon Monarch Fu Jiao, Archean Mountain frequently assigned him missions. Thus, Meng Chuan often rushed to help Earth Net Godfiends when they encountered trouble.
He had saved many Godfiends! Having saved them repeatedly, along with how he had killed demon monarchs time and time again, these Godfiends were grateful to him and admired him.
Meng Chuan was Wu State’s pride!
Everyone believed that Meng Chuan would definitely become a Marquis Godfiend. He even had a chance of becoming a Regis Godfiend! Due to wanting to repay the favor of them being saved, many Godfiends wrote letters to inform him about Meng Dajiang’s case.
The earlier he knew, the earlier Meng Chuan could respond. If he waited for Archean Mountain’s official notice, it might be a little late.
...
One letter after another was sent to Meng Chuan through Archean Mountain’s internal system! Without having to write an address, Archean Mountain would deliver the letter to the recipient. Furthermore, it was impossible for the Godfiends’ letters to be read.
Gu Mountain Prefecture City.
In a chamber, Meng Chuan was absorbing Quiescence Frost baneful aura. A large calabash laid in front of him. Inside the calabash was the liquefied Quiescence Frost baneful aura. He had obtained 30 percent of Archean Mountain’s stockpile. This was his final calabash of Quiescence Frost baneful aura.
Absorb. Meng Chuan directed his Quintessential Essence into the calabash and immediately, black-green baneful aura flew out. It flew into Meng Chuan’s mouth as he sucked it in.
His body at the Divine Power realm was too powerful! Compared to Marquis Godfiends in history—that had cultivated the Lightning Devastator Fiend Body—his body was much stronger than theirs. His vitality was also monstrous, so it was naturally easier for him to withstand the Quiescence Frost baneful aura. His absorption speed was also several times faster.
Absorb. Every time Meng Chuan absorbed the Quiescence Frost baneful aura, he would fuse it with the baneful aura within him.
Finally, when not much was left in the calabash, Meng Chuan’s baneful aura completely transformed.
I’ve refined Quiescence Frost baneful aura completely?
Meng Chuan revealed a look of delight. With a thought, his black baneful aura surged around his body. The surrounding area began to freeze as temperatures plummeted. Ordinary Great Solar Godfiends and third Firmament demon monarchs would probably be frozen to death and turn into ice sculptures. Even fourth Firmament demon monarchs and Marquis Godfiends would be greatly affected by his baneful aura.
For those like Blackwater Palace Lord, they would probably only have 20 to 30 percent of their strength left after facing his terrifyingly chilling baneful aura.
The Lightning Devastator Fiend Body—a transcendent-grade Godfiend body—combined with many precious baneful auras such as the Quiescence Frost baneful aura, resulted in a very terrifying baneful aura. In fact, only Marquis Godfiends could refine Quiescence Frost baneful aura completely.
I’ve finally mastered it after spending nearly a month. It’s slightly easier than I expected. It’s because of my body. My body is powerful and my vitality is extremely high. I can rapidly restore the damage the baneful aura does on my body. Meng Chuan secretly nodded. I have another powerful technique.
He got up and stuffed the calabash into his storage bag. He put away the cloth bag before happily opening the door to the chamber and walking out.
After mastering a powerful technique, he wanted to share it with his wife.
“Ah Chuan.” Liu Qiyue read a book outside the chamber as a way to guard him. She smiled and said, “I wonder what happened today. You have a few letters.”
“A few letters?” Meng Chuan was surprised.
Godfiends fought everywhere. It was rare for them to send letters.
Only Yan Jin, Yang Fang, some of his good friends, as well as his father and family, occasionally wrote letters to him.
“They’re all for you. None of them are mine.” Liu Qiyue handed over a stack of letters.
Meng Chuan sat down and opened the first letter out of curiosity. He unfolded the letter and read the contents with a smile.
