Wan Lei stopped patrolling immediately and sat down on the ground outside Sister Xiao Yu's cell, smiling at her.
Fang Xiao Yu took a prayer mat and sat by the doorway. They looked at each other through the glass, as if separated by two worlds. Da Feng Novel
But on their faces, happy smiles bloomed.
The prisoners opposite watched, their mouths twitching.
Was this some new punishment? They were locked up, unable to see their loved ones, and now they had to watch these two flaunt their affection. This was a cruel torture directly targeting their hearts!!!
"Alright, now tell me what you did after I was captured," Fang Xiao Yu transmitted with a smile.
Wan Lei looked at the cultivation suppressor on Fang Xiao Yu's neck, his heart aching. After composing himself, he began to speak slowly.
"In that space, I killed Gou Da and came out with the Supreme Engraving Knife. But you were gone. I was almost driven mad, you know..."
Wan Lei recounted his experiences. When he spoke of killing everyone in a frenzy, Fang Xiao Yu felt immense heartache, though not for those who were killed.
Wan Lei then told her about calling Wan Qianxin and finally confirming that jailbreaking was the only option. So, he first returned to Xiang Ren Sect and then came alone to the Five Elements Hall.
When Wan Lei mischievously infused Origin Fire and Origin Lightning into the talent碑, Fang Xiao Yu burst into laughter at his slyness.
Next, Wan Lei spoke of breaking through three trials, setting a new record for the Five Elements Hall. Fang Xiao Yu clapped her hands, cheering him on.
Of course, Wan Lei omitted the details of the illusion, as it was embarrassing...
After that, he contacted Qi Heng through Xiao Jin. When Wan Lei mentioned Qi Heng's greedy little habits, Fang Xiao Yu laughed so hard she couldn't straighten up.
"I never thought Qi Heng, who seemed so righteous, would be so fond of cheap gains."
Then came the rendezvous outside the Five Elements Hall. Wan Lei instructed Qi Heng to take good care of Fang Xiao Yu. Hearing this, Fang Xiao Yu's lips curved into a happy smile.
It was so sweet.
After Fang Xiao Yu was settled, Wan Lei felt at ease and found an opportunity to meet the Hall Master of the Water Hall who had previously bestowed them divine abilities.
Hearing this, Fang Xiao Yu's mouth fell open in surprise. She hadn't expected that those who had left behind the secret realm had grown to become the Hall Masters of the Five Elements Hall.
When Wan Lei spoke of how he had terrified the Water Hall Master, and was then sent flying by the sage's pressure, Fang Xiao Yu felt both worried and amused. However, since Wan Lei was sitting right in front of her, she stopped worrying.
"Since they are unwilling to help us, we only have one path left: jailbreaking," Fang Xiao Yu sighed. This was the worst outcome.
Then, Wan Lei recounted being cornered by Water Hall disciples, receiving over ten thousand challenge letters, being secretly assigned a purgatory-level mission by the Fire Hall Master as retaliation, and finally the various unreasonable regulations in the Five Elements Hall that targeted him. Seeing his indignant expression, Fang Xiao Yu's face contorted with laughter.
When he talked about solving the town's mystery, the Great Sage Equalling Heaven saving the day, him teaching the Great Sage Equalling Heaven how to become an Immortal Venerable, and the Great Sage Equalling Heaven teaching him divine abilities, Fang Xiao Yu listened intently. It was thrilling.
After that, he easily dealt with the younger disciples, making the Water Hall disciples cry out in pain. Just as he was about to reach a thousand merit points, the Immortal Venerable dog changed the rules, causing him to leave in a huff.
Finally, there was the Creation Tower mission, worth a full two thousand merit points. The Five Elements Hall had gone to great lengths to ensure he wouldn't refuse the mission. He spent a hundred days in the Creation Tower, clearing all one hundred levels. Especially the final battle with Jian Fan Chen, where he used a doppelganger to feign death and achieve an upset victory. Fang Xiao Yu applauded.
"Alas, I can't believe I spent a peaceful half-year here, while you went through so many thrilling experiences outside. It's truly worrying," Fang Xiao Yu said, resting her chin on her hand, her eyes full of concern.
"It's fine, I'm very powerful now. I'm already the strongest Hall Disciple in the Five Elements Hall. Even the wardens talk to me with a smile. My status is very high."
Seeing Wan Lei's triumphant look, Fang Xiao Yu couldn't resist teasing him,
"Hmph, that's just because the disciples of the Five Elements Hall are too weak. If I could challenge the Creation Tower, you wouldn't be my match even on the hundredth level."
"Ah, yes, yes, yes. My dear wife is the most formidable. How could I be your opponent?"
"Then tell me, where am I the most formidable?"
"In choosing a husband."
"Pfft, pfft, pfft."
They were both laughing uncontrollably when suddenly, Wan Lei felt a kick.
He turned to see Qi Heng staring at him unhappily with a dark expression. Qi Heng was pulling a food cart behind him.
"Brother Qi, you're here," Wan Lei quickly stood up.
"Don't you see what time it is? Still chatting here. Hurry up and deliver the food."
Qi Heng threw a set of keys into Wan Lei's arms.
Wan Lei felt rather awkward. He had lost track of time while chatting.
He quickly took out the keys, opened Fang Xiao Yu's small window, and handed her the food.
Prioritize the wife's meal.
"I'll finish delivering to this row. You go deliver to the row opposite."
"Okay."
Wan Lei pushed the food cart to another row and began opening small windows to deliver food.
When he reached the cell diagonally opposite Fang Xiao Yu, Qi Heng leaned by the window and said to the person inside with a mischievous grin,
"Liu Pang, just confess. If you don't, I won't give you food anymore."
Wan Lei looked up curiously. Inside, a short, chubby young man, dressed in the uniform of a Wood Hall disciple, sat on the ground, grumbling unhappily.
"Qi Heng, aren't you annoying? I did it alone, and it has nothing to do with anyone else. Besides, according to the rules, you have to give me food. If you don't, I'll report you."
As he spoke, Liu Pang looked at Wan Lei and said,
"This must be the new warden. I'll report him too and get you both locked up next to me."
"Hmph, you expect to do that? You can shout your lungs out, and no one will come to save you."
Qi Heng grinned like a villain.
"I'll shout at the camera. Let's see if you're scared."
The chubby guy stood up and reached for his food.
Qi Heng didn't actually violate the rules. He picked up a tray and handed it to him.
"I might be afraid of you reporting me, but my brother here isn't. Do you know who he is? Let me tell you, even if he beat you to death, the warden would beg him to stay as a warden."
Hearing this, the chubby guy looked at Wan Lei in surprise.
"Who is he?"
"Hahaha, eat your food."
Qi Heng slammed the chubby guy's window shut.
The chubby guy didn't mind. He sat down, picked up the tray, and began to devour the food. If Wan Lei hadn't known how bad prison food was, he would have thought the guy was eating delicacies.
