Volume 5: Return to Donghua Chapter 12 Night Front
In the corridor, Qi Ji, who was passing by five people from the Xuan family, was suddenly attacked by two guards.
Then, as they stared at him as if they had seen a ghost, Qi Ji used four fingers of his left and right hands to clamp the weapons that the two men were swinging at with all their strength.
The next moment, without waiting for the enemy to make any further moves, he immediately drew his sword and quickly killed four of the five men.
Only the butler-looking guy who collapsed on the ground managed to save his life.
"I wouldn't yell if I were you."
Qi Ji stood in front of the butler, looked at him with indifferent eyes and spoke in a deep voice.
The butler immediately covered his mouth, nodded frantically, and looked pleading in his eyes.
Qi Ji saw that the other party understood, nodded, and asked calmly: "How did you find me just now?"
The housekeeper said in a trembling voice: "The guards here are on duty at fixed times and locations. There is no rule to arrange guard patrols. Sir, you patrol like this..."
Qi Ji understood the reason.
"Next, I'll ask, and you'll answer." Qi Ji felt that he had been saying this sentence quite frequently in the past two days. "Where were the prisoners from Jiange captured and held in the past two days?"
The butler was obviously a rather cowardly fellow, and he answered Qi Ji's question very quickly: "They were sent in today. Because they are of extremely high quality and belong to powerful forces, they are now all locked up in the deepest part of this prison, and are being watched over by Lord Ye Feng himself."
"Who is Lord Ye Feng, and what are the levels of the other guards?" Qi Ji asked immediately.
The housekeeper smiled bitterly, "I am just an ordinary man, how can I tell the strength of these extraordinary warriors? However, the two guards you just killed should be the most powerful guards in this prison. As for Lord Ye Feng, I heard from people that he is a super master who has reached the 'fourth level' realm like a god."
Qi Ji glanced at the prison cells on both sides of the corridor and asked, "Who are the prisoners in these rooms?"
The housekeeper said honestly: "These are just ordinary martial artists with no powerful background."
Qi Ji thought about it and decided not to let these people out for the time being.
Although no one had noticed that the place had been attacked after his infiltration process of leaving no one alive, both the guards upstairs and downstairs would see the bodies of the guards when they changed shifts, which would expose the fact that there was an enemy attack.
But at least during this period of time, he could still rush to the place where everyone in Jiange was imprisoned with relative ease.
It would be relatively safer to wait until he has dealt with the guarding masters here and rescued the main disciples of his Sword Pavilion, and then liberate the others.
"Stand up and lead the way to where the Jiange sect members are being held. You don't have to tell me you don't know where they are. These two people are here just to see them." Qi Ji gestured to the butler to lead the way. "Lead the way to where you are. I won't kill you. You can fend for yourself."
The butler stood up hurriedly. The reason why he was so honest was because of Qi Ji's last promise not to kill.
Then, the butler displayed his superb acting skills and calmly led Qi Ji, who was dressed as a guard, through many corridors lined with prison cells. Many guards were obviously accustomed to seeing the butler leading people on patrol in the underground prisons, so they were not surprised and the two men's progress was unusually smooth.
They went straight deep underground and entered a hall that was much more spacious than the previous passages.
This hall is as big as a badminton court. Together with the wall on the side of the passage where Qi Ji came in, there are a total of three wide metal fence cages that surround the hall in the shape of an "concave" character.
In the cage, there were hundreds of prisoners . From their clothes and appearance, it could be seen that they were all members of the Jiange Sect.
Qi Ji could even see many familiar faces but he couldn't remember their names.
Now, these Jiange disciples were looking at the butler and Qi Ji behind him with hatred, and many of them were cursing weakly.
"Why do they all look like this? Are they poisoned?" Qi Ji took a quick look and saw that all the members of Jiange Sect, young and old, were sitting on the ground weakly. He couldn't help but ask.
The butler nodded and said, "Yes, they were all poisoned by Lord Ye Feng. Their bodies are weak and powerless, and they are unable to condense 'Qi'."
Qi Ji glanced at him and asked one last question: "Do you have the key to the cage?"
The butler shook his head: "The key is kept by Lord Ye Feng, no one else is qualified."
Qi Ji nodded: "Okay, you can go now?"
The butler was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed. He looked at Qi Ji again and again to confirm, and said, "Sir, can I really leave?"
Qi Ji shook his head: "Go ahead. It doesn't matter whether you go out to call for help or to inform on others."
It really doesn't matter. According to Qi Ji's speculation, people outside might have discovered that he had sneaked in.
The butler nodded repeatedly , constantly assuring, "No, no! Thank you for not killing me!"
After saying that, he ran towards the corridor happily.
The next second, his whole body shook violently, and then a large amount of blood spurted out of his body and he fell to the ground.
As he fell downwards, a tall and thin man, wrapped in bandages, with long purple hair, wearing a mask with white and purple patterns on the upper half of his face so that only his mouth and chin could be seen, and emitting purple air, appeared in front of Qi Ji.
"It's ridiculous that a snitch like this actually dreams of living on." The man's voice was crisp and his eyes were cold. He looked at Qi Ji as if he were a dead person.
Qi Ji had expected this man to appear. He looked at him and said, "Are you the 'Ye Feng'?"
The purple-haired bandaged man sneered, "It's obvious."
He looked Qi Ji up and down, and said proudly: "You should be the 'Jian Ge Pursuer'. The fact that you can get to this place means that the useless Ghost Face Gentleman has failed."
Qi Ji sneered: "You call others trash, but I don't think you are a powerful character either."
Ye Feng laughed wildly, and a large amount of purple energy instantly appeared all over his body: "So much nonsense, just come straight to me!"
Then , a set of enchanting and gorgeous purple scale armor appeared on the surface of his body.
Six long bandages suddenly stretched out from behind him, each end of the bandage was connected to a sharp dagger, and the surface of each dagger exuded a strong purple aura.
The next second, as he suddenly rushed forward, the bandages behind him rushed towards Qi Ji like spider legs at a speed faster than the speed of sound!
The six daggers above appeared in front of Qi Ji almost in an instant.
Qi Ji had already activated his own burst amplification before this.
Demon-Slaying·Pattern·Berserker Armor Amplification!
Extraordinary third-level skill—flow!
With so many amplifications working at the same time, his body strength increased rapidly, reaching the level of seventy-five tons in an instant.
Facing six daggers stabbing at him at the same time, he stood there calmly like a mirror and still water, swinging his sword at an incredible speed, and instantly repelled all the opponent's attacks.
At the same time, he also had a preliminary assessment of the strength level of this master named Ye Feng.
The force is probably less than seventy tons, even less than that of the Ghost-Faced Gentleman before the explosion.
But both the advance speed and attack speed are incredibly fast!
