Chapter 1561: Chapter 1556: Wu Changkong’s Escape?_1 Chapter 1561: Chapter 1556: Wu Changkong’s Escape?_1 Just shortly after the Gate of Dao Conference ended, the royal family’s dungeon prison held numerous royal criminals from various generations, as well as enemies captured by the royal family.

Although the royal family couldn’t be said to be clear about their grudges, at least their stance on major issues is in order. In this dungeon prison, no innocent people would be imprisoned.

Wu Changkong, however, was also imprisoned in the dungeon prison, and had recently suffered many tortures. In about half a month, he would face execution.

This time period was the most painful he had ever felt in his life. He had thought of every possible way to escape, but none existed.

He knew that he was finished.

All he had left was despair, only despair.

However, today, another person arrived in the dungeon prison, and this man was Bai Shangfei, one of the many Spirit Plate Emperors of the royal family.

Bai Shangfei, among many Spirit Plate Emperors, was not particularly noticeable. He was not even invited to the conference at first.

It seemed that Bai Shangfei did not intend to attend the conference either. As the Gate of Dao Conference began, he came to the dungeon prison.

The warden, who only had Heavenly Martial Realm strength, saw Bai Shangfei coming and hurriedly greeted him respectfully, “Greetings, Emperor Shangfei.”

The warden had a fawning smile on his face, being very respectful, as life in the dungeon was not pleasant. He had to please those above him if he wanted to climb up the ladder.

At the moment, he did not know why Bai Shangfei had come, but of course, he had to welcome him happily.

“Well, I’ve heard of you, Warden Yu, right? There haven’t been any incidents in the dungeon these past few days,” Bai Shangfei said coldly.

“Of course not, Emperor Shangfei. Rest assured, under my supervision, this dungeon is well-guarded and absolutely secure. Nothing will happen,” Yu Warden immediately became happy upon hearing that Bai Shangfei had heard of him. Being recognized by a Great Emperor was an exciting thing.

He did not know that his expressions and gazes were all clearly seen by Bai Shangfei.

Bai Shangfei, with his hands behind his back, spoke calmly, “Well, your work attitude seems very good. Now, I want to enter the third level of the dungeon, so let me in.”

“The third level of the dungeon, this is where many vicious criminals are imprisoned… Emperor Shangfei, whom are you planning to visit?” The warden’s heart jumped.

If it were other levels, he would not mind, but the third level of the dungeon involved many matters, the most critical being Wu Changkong, who was under strict supervision by many Emperors. He was well aware of the importance.

Bai Shangfei saw that Warden Yu was somewhat uncomfortable and frowned, “Why, don’t you trust me? Hmph, I’m going to the third level to see Wu Changkong. In the end, it is because I had some past grievances with him and now want to clear things up. Warden Yu shouldn’t be so irrational.”

“You want to visit Wu Changkong? That won’t do!” Warden Yu quickly shook his head, “Emperor Shangfei, please don’t make things difficult for me. This matter involves a lot, and the higher-ups have ordered that no one is allowed to see Wu Changkong.”

“Warden Yu, how can you be so foolish? Others might not be allowed, but am I not an exception? You’d better think clearly, or do you want to stay here forever?” Bai Shangfei hinted subtly.

Warden Yu felt hesitant.

He certainly didn’t want to stay in this sunless dungeon for life, and since Bai Shangfei was a royal Great Emperor, there shouldn’t be any problems. So he agreed, “Alright, Emperor Shangfei, I’ll make an exception this time. But you only have half an hour. That should be enough time for you to get things done.”

“Of course,” Bai Shangfei said.

“Please, Emperor Shangfei. In the future, I hope you’ll promote me more,” Warden Yu repeated several times, not wanting to let Bai Shangfei enter without any reward.

Bai Shangfei knew what Warden Yu wanted and leisurely said, “Definitely!”

After that, Warden Yu immediately let Bai Shangfei in.

After Bai Shangfei entered and saw that Warden Yu didn’t follow, the corner of his mouth curled up. He hadn’t expected that Warden Yu would really trust him and risk it all to rise up.

However, it’s a pity that Warden Yu won’t have any chance to rise in the future.

As Bai Shangfei stepped into the second floor of the dungeon, he ignored the criminals, and entered the third level.

Upon reaching the third level, the dungeon space grew larger, but the number of prisoners became sparse. Among those imprisoned, there were a considerable number of fierce criminals who had reached the Spirit Plate Stage.

Moreover, there were even Jinzun Stage masters among them.

And they were not few in number, with a total of more than ten people.

“I’ve never been to the third level of the dungeon before, I didn’t expect it to be well-deserved. Many desperate and wicked criminals imprisoned throughout the royal family’s history also include masters. There are so many spirit plate stage master criminals…” Bai Shangfei sneered.

This was not a strange thing. After all, over a long period of time, anything could happen. Moreover, the Spirit Plate Emperors were not such a rare species. It was only after reaching the Jinzun Stage and Integration Period that they started to become rarer.

“Who are you!”

“You’re a dog of the royal family!”

“Kid, if you have the guts, let me go…”

In an instant, several spirit plate stage master criminals yelled viciously at Bai Shangfei.

Bai Shangfei completely ignored them and went straight to the depths. Finally, the figure of a man gradually emerged. This man was Wu Changkong.

Wu Changkong had been beaten to the point of skin and bones, full of prohibitions. When he saw Bai Shangfei arrive, he squinted his eyes and weakly asked, “Who are you?”

“Great Lord Changkong, I am an informer of the Fierce Ghost Sect, placed within the royal family. I have come to rescue you,” Bai Shangfei laughed.

“You are also loyal to the Fierce Ghost Sect?” Wu Changkong was overjoyed.

Bai Shangfei nodded quickly, “Hmph, the royal family doesn’t care about me. The Fierce Ghost Sect promised to help me reach the Demigod stage, so of course, I have to join them. The power of the royal family is superficial, and they are not a match for the Fierce Ghost Sect!”

“Alright, stop wasting time. Hurry up and help me unlock the prohibitions, and then let’s escape quickly,” Wu Changkong had no patience to listen to Bai Shangfei’s ramblings and directly requested.

Bai Shangfei couldn’t help but feel annoyed. However, considering the Fierce Ghost Sect’s demands, he said, “Great Lord Changkong, do not worry. Now, the royal family is in a meeting. At the end of the meeting, based on Evil Cloud and Changsheng’s thoughts, they will invite the Bai family and Li Lianfeng to visit. Now is a great opportunity for us to escape. However, mere escape is not enough. The Fierce Ghost Sect lent me a Ghost Travel Boat…”
