“Xuan Ji?” The Luosha King made a confused noise before letting out a light laugh. “I see, a member of the Qingyun League. Is that woman’s face not yet filled with wrinkles? Is she still as youthful and beautiful as me?”
“You’re not Master Xuan Ji? Why do you look exactly like her?” Ye Mo was slightly taken by surprise. Upon closer examination of the Luosha King, he realised that the woman before his eyes indeed was quite a bit different than Xuan Ji . There was a mole between Xuan Ji’s eyebrows, and this woman did not have one. Also, there were some differences between the sound of their voices.
“Of course I am not Xuan Ji. I am her sister, Xuan Qiu,” the Luosha King said.
“Master Xuan Qiu, since you’re Master Xuan Ji’s sister, for her sake, I plead you to let Sister Yao Yue off.” Putting his hands together, Ye Mo immediately started to plead for mercy for Yao Yue.
“Let her off?” Luosha King let out a cold laugh as she said, “I do not get along with that woman who is my sister. I’m ultimately still a member of the Emperor Faction. I plead my allegiance to the Empress. That Yao Yue’s offense cannot be redeemed, and you will not be able to escape death either. According to information from the Imperial Guards, they could not find any information about you. It is almost as if your existence suddenly dropped from the sky into the Tianwu Kingdom. Unless you are from the Zone of Desolation?”
Having consumed the Face Change Pill, as well as using normal, average techniques to kill the Imperial Guards, it was completely impossible to verify his identity. “Indeed, I am from the Zone of Desolation. I am the young clan master of the Sky Energy Clan. If you dare try to kill me, not just this tiny Luosha Prison, but the whole of Tianwu Kingdom will perish.” Ye Mo made up a story, coming up with a clan name on the spot. While he might not have ever left Tianwu Kingdom, the clans outside of the kingdom were strong beyond comprehension.
“A sharp tongue, Qingyun League member. What Sky Energy Clan? There is only the Door of Desolation in the Zone of Desolation!”
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a silver light flashed as a silver light sword was unleashed, stopping right in front of Ye Mo only a centimeter away from his forehead. However, Ye Mo completely did not flinch at all.
“You have some courage. However, I’m afraid you won’t be able to endure the Luosha Formation.” The Luosha King showed a hint of a smile as she spoke to the Luosha members outside the palace, “Bring me Yao Yue. Since both of them are from the Qingyun League, let’s allow them to go through the Luosha Punishment together.”
“Yes, Luosha King”
After a few minutes, Yao Yue was dragged into the palace as well, with both of her hands tied with Energy Restraining Rope. Yao Yue also revealed an expression of exasperation when she saw the Luosha King’s appearance. However, she soon settled down and resumed her calmness.
“You are not Master Xuan Ji,” Yao Yue’s eyebrow twitched as she said calmly.
“You’re smarter than this league member then,” said Luosha King.
“Hm?” It was at that moment that Yao Yue finally realized that Ye Mo was there. Having seen Ye Mo’s appearance after taking the Face Change Pill, she immediately identified him. “Why are you here?” Yao Yue asked in a reprimanding tone, her face showing a hint of anger.
“Initially, my plan was to rescue you, but it looks like the Luosha Prison is not as simple as I had imagined.,” Ye Mo said as he gave a sheepish smile.
“You!” Yao Yue was extremely angered by Ye Mo’s words. Ye Mo entering the Luosha Prison was as good as seeking death. However, she was also touched by Ye Mo’s spirit, which she did not display on her face.
“The two of you, let me ask you again. Are you all members of the Martial Faction? Also, who are the other members in the Martial Faction?” Luosha King asked.
“Martial Clan? What is the Martial Clan?” Ye Mo could not help but ask curiously.
“You!” The Luosha King immediately reached in front of Ye Mo, grabbing his collar with a single hand as she said loudly, “Don’t think that I’m unaware of who they are! There are many members of the Martial Faction within the Qingyun League. I’m guessing my sister has entered the Martial Clan as well. However, fear not, because I will force every name out of you.”
“Bring both of them away and send them to the Luosha Punishment.” The Luosha King threw Ye Mo and Yao Yue out of the palace with a single swipe. Four Luosha members outside the palace came in and dragged the two of them out. The Luosha King also followed them. “Behave yourself, and your suffering later will be less.”
Following that, Ye Mo and Yao Yue were brought to a sacrificial altar. It was a gigantic altar with a bridge made out of steel chains connected to it. Below it, there was a sea of boiling lava. This was the underground, hence the presence of lava was not surprising. However, the sight of the altar made Ye Mo’s face changed slightly.
There was a criminal standing in the middle of the altar as countless number of Luosha Evil Ghosts the size of fists emerging from the altar, biting and tearing at the criminal. Rushing out from the criminal’s body, the ghosts revealed a ferocious expression with satisfied smiles across their faces as they patted their own stomachs. The criminal’s spirit was what they were after. While the fighter could not display his spiritual powers at the moment, every person had a spirit. Having one’s spirit eaten and torn apart was undoubtedly extremely painful.
“Ahhhh, kill… kill me. I cannot take this anymore.” The criminal let out multiple screams of pain as the veins on his face popping like poisonous snakes, clearly in a lot of suffering.
Finally, the criminal could no longer endure the pain and started to activate his Energy Center, causing the seal to start reacting. This caused his Energy Center to explode immediately as a White Tiger leaped out from within. The White Tiger let out multiple roars. Seeing what was unfolding, the Luosha Evil Ghosts let out sniggering laughs before attacking the Energy White Tiger like a gust of black wind. The tiger vanished instantly.
“What a powerful Luosha Formation. There are some strong Luosha Evil Ghosts inside. They are not just devouring the spirit but also finding blood and flesh to possess and take over as they attempt to find a body.” Seeing the situation unfold, Ling’er’s face was also extremely solemn. This formation was not created using seals. There must have been another source of evil within it. Otherwise it would be impossible for so many Luosha Evil Ghosts to appear.
Even Yao Yue’s face changed slightly as she watched on. Perhaps even True Energy Realm fighters would have a tough time if they stepped into this formation.
“Did you see that? That man just now was a True Energy Realm fighter of the Martial Faction. This is what happens to people of the Martial Faction,” Luosha King said.
The scene before Ye Mo’s eyes made him completely furious. “While I do not know what the Martial Faction is, this type of punishment is simply sickening and inhumane. All of you will face retribution sooner or later.”
“You don’t have to be angry. Both of you will be receiving this punishment as well. If you two can last ten minutes in the Luosha Formation, I will let both of you off.” After saying this, the Luosha King asked the Luosha members guarding the altar, “How long did that criminal just now last for?”
“Not even a minute!”
“If I endure it for twenty minutes by myself, will you let him off?” Yao Yue said as she stepped forward with a serious face.
“Twenty minutes?” The Luosha King responded in surprised before smiling sinisterly. “The Luosha Formation is the worst punishment in the whole of Tianwu Kingdom. Do you two still think this is child’s play? Don’t even talk lasting twenty minutes. If either of you can last for over fifteen minutes, I will release the both of you at the same time.”
“Alright! Remember to keep your word.” As Yao Yue prepared to steppin to the formation, she saw that Ye Mo had already stepped onto the steel chain bridge.
“Luosha King, remember what you promised.”
“You fool, your Energy Center has been sealed. How will you endure for that long?” As she spoke, Yao Yue was already on her way towards the bridge to pull Ye Mo back.
A silver lock chain wrapped around Yao Yue’s slim waist, immediately pulling her backwards.
“Since he wants to test the power of the Luosha Punishemnt, then let him do it. Haha, however, he is going to die for sure!”
Luosha King started to laugh wildly!
