Chapter 901: Shackles (In honor of the Alliance Leader known to all!)

~8 min read 1,453 words

Guangnan Prefecture.

The Prefectural Office.

The night curtain was deep.

Yet Prefect Liu Yong was not resting; instead, he was trimming the Lamp to review official documents one by one.

As a Prefect of Great Xuan, he could be said to have exhausted his heart and energy for the Imperial Court, serving until his death.

"Sigh... recently, due to celestial phenomena, people's hearts are inclined toward chaos; this is no blessing for the state."

Liu Yong raised an eyebrow: "Come in."

Aaron let out a sigh of admiration, reached out his palm, and grabbed that chain of Curse Power.

The expression of Ma Wang Shen changed instantly; he looked at Liu Yong, the closeness in his eyes gone, replaced by venom: "Damn the Xuan Court, how dare you play with me like this? Ahhh..."

The world is full of troubles these days.

Aaron could crush this Ma Wang Shen to death with a casual flick of his hand.

At this moment, Spirituality flickered within his eyes, and he had clearly activated his spiritual vision.

This is the core restricted area of the Prefectural Office, guarded by layers; who could get so close?

And, to be such a person who knows no etiquette!

"I didn't expect that you, Huang Laohu, a famous master of northern boxing, would turn out to be such a petty person in the end."

"Don't think about calling for help; I have caused the attraction of this room to decrease infinitely, so even if everyone in the entire Guangnan Prefecture passes by, they will just treat it as if nothing happened."

After his anger subsided, a trace of shock appeared on Liu Yong's face: "Tianshu Grandmaster?!"

"Even if you are a secular Grandmaster, under the Strange Art of a Strange Person, you are still like an ant."

Inside one of the thick ice pillars, there seemed to be a human Shadow.

"Reporting to my lord..."

"Rest assured, once the matter is accomplished, this official will recommend you for an official position!"

At the same time, a layer of white frost spread further.

Huang Laohu kowtowed and said: "The latest news, Bai Huasheng's son—Baishu, has returned today."

Immediately, Huang Laohu's vision went black, and he knew nothing more.

He paused, then asked: "What is your purpose in coming here this time?"

As soon as the words fell, the temperature in the small room plummeted, and dripping water turned to ice.

Then, he saw the wisps of Curse Power entwined around this Ma Wang Shen; they were chains composed of words like commandments, winding around Ma Wang Shen, even sinking into his body as if they had grown together with his bones and blood vessels.

"Many thanks, my lord, many thanks, my lord; I have dreamed of becoming an official since I was a child, to honor my wife and children, and bring glory to my ancestors."

A look of smugness appeared on Liu Yong's face: "So what if you can sneak in? Attack!"

Huang Laohu was overjoyed and kowtowed repeatedly to express his gratitude.

This was not power that an ordinary human could obtain, but Strange Power! Strange Art!

Liu Yong had actually already requested reinforcements from the Imperial Court!

Not only that, the Xuan Court had even dispatched a Strange Person as reinforcements!

"Strange Art: Ice Seal Ten Thousand Miles!"

But he had become interested and wanted to investigate the root of the Curse Power and the Dao-Level Strange Human.

"It's actually you?" Liu Yong was so angry that smoke seemed to pour from his seven orifices, and he roared: "A mere person of the pugilistic world dares to trespass into the Prefectural Office; you have truly rebelled against the heavens. Does your Bai Family want to be wiped out and have your clan exterminated?"

Huge ice cones appeared one after another in the room.

"Except for the Qiankun Society rebels who caused a ruckus in Jinhu back then!"

Aaron sighed and pushed the door open to enter.

Then, he gave a gentle tug.

"That's right, the Bai Family intends to rebel, but it's a pity that you, as Prefect, will not live to see it."

Huang Laohu was known as a northern boxing Grandmaster, yet at this moment, his mind was completely seized, and he had no idea how to resist.

"Ma... Ma Wang Shen!"

Aaron grabbed this Imperial Court Strange Person with one hand, with a hint of curiosity: "Your name..."

If, on the day of the suppression, such a Tianshu Grandmaster were missed, it would inevitably bring about a great variable.

Only a Tianshu, or even a formidable figure among Grandmasters, could wipe out Huang Laohu in one move, leaving him unable to even resist!

"Hmm, get up."

Clatter!

The Curse Power chain shattered into pieces and fell to the ground.

"That son who has always been away from home?" Liu Yong was not alarmed but delighted: "Good, just in time to catch them all in one net!"

"Your martial arts..."

His face was aged, his long hair sparse, and he was forming a Dharma Seal with his hands.

Just at this moment, a knock on the door came.

By the time he recovered from his daze, he saw a large hand descending like the sky, landing right on his forehead.

After a long while, Liu Yong put down the brush in his hand and sighed.

"Yes, but don't you find it strange? Is this thought of yours, that you will never betray the Imperial Court, truly your own heart, or is it a shackle imposed upon you by an outsider?"

Countless ice blades fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.

Because the figure of the rebel Baishu had actually slowly blurred and vanished into thin air.

Liu Yong's expression changed instantly: "Who is it?"

Seeing Liu Yong at this moment, he knelt on one knee directly: "Huang Laohu pays his respects to the Prefect..."

"Ah... who are you?"

This Strange Person did not look back, only saying with disbelief: "Impossible, all Strange Persons must submit to the Profound Court, except... except..."

This ice-sealed room seemed to have fallen into a state of eternal stagnation, receiving not the slightest attention from the outside world.

After all, with Strange Persons and Strange Arts in the Imperial Court, it could not fall into chaos!

"My lord."

Just at this moment, a soft laugh suddenly came from outside.

"Fortunately... this official is not entirely without preparation."

Liu Yong watched this scene, his heart filled with great joy.

Liu Yong shouted, wanting to warn the person outside, but discovered that outside was deathly silent.

Liu Yong waved his hand and laughed: "Bai Huasheng thought this official wanted to use you to probe his bottom line, but he did not know that this official had long since known his bottom line. Hmph... if it weren't for the need to track down that list of rebels, this official would have long since mustered the troops and wiped out the entire Bai Family!"

Huang Laohu looked up, his eyes filled with a trace of longing.

"You... are also a Strange Person?"

However, he still had confidence in Great Xuan, especially in His Majesty.

In the void, it was as if a fierce tiger was roaring.

Yet the next moment, his expression gradually became stagnant.

"Strange Persons are divided into three grades: Shu, Fa, and Dao... Shu-Grade and Fa-Grade are nothing special, but a Dao-Level Strange Human truly has some extraordinary aspects."

The Strange Person spoke: "Don't you dare dream of it, I will not betray the Imperial Court."

A middle-aged man with a sallow face entered; he walked with great momentum, yet carried a hint of a rough, grassroots air.

It was precisely a Strange Person of the Imperial Court!

His words unconsciously carried a tremor, because he had thought of that most terrifying possibility.

Aaron stepped forward, casually throwing out a Tiger Demon Body Refining Fist.

The next moment, countless ice blades, like ten thousand swords piercing the heart, passed through Aaron's body.

Rip!

"Good, very good. To think that this official still underestimated the Bai Family... are you the Bai Family's trump card?"

Liu Yong pointed at Aaron.

"Then this subordinate..."

The next moment, a hand like white jade pierced through the ice pillar and pressed onto the back of this Strange Person's neck.

Huang Laohu instinctively blocked in front of Liu Yong, his eyes widening: "You are Bai Huasheng's son—Baishu? I just saw your portrait today!"

Liu Yong stroked his beard and said.

Amidst the roar, countless ice shards flew and splashed.

Liu Yong was immediately as if pierced by ten thousand flying needles, and a large patch of blood was smeared on the wall behind him...
