Chapter 440 Ling·Shen Ke's Redemption

"Old Wolf, what the hell do you mean?!" the centipede demon beast roared, "What, you lost to me in soccer a few days ago and now you want to pick a fight?"

Then, the centipede demon beast kicked the female cultivator back.

That wasn't all.

Afterward, it grabbed a few more cultivators from the surroundings and kicked them all towards the wolf demon.

Unfortunately, its ball skills were truly abysmal.

Only one or two hit their targets.

The rest flew onto other demon beasts.

This caused a huge mess!

These demon beasts ignored their clothes and started retaliating with curses!

And then these cultivators were in trouble...

They were treated like balls, kicked and sent flying everywhere...

Although these mutated demon beasts weren't targeting them specifically, their strength was immense!

Every kick felt like being hit by a heavy hammer...

Many of them were spitting blood while flying...

Later, these creatures got playful and started showing off their ball skills.

Their showmanship caused the cultivators to be repeatedly knocked unconscious from pain, only to be revived by more pain...

The scene became extremely chaotic.

Extremely lewd and violent!

Ling Hefan, standing nearby, witnessed the entire process.

His body couldn't help but tremble.

Too terrifying...

Fortunately, I was smart enough, or I'd be in the same predicament!

This is worse than death!

No, I can't stay here any longer!

Although I'm safe for now, these creatures are all mentally unstable.

Who knows what their attitude will be towards me later!

I need to find a way to slip away...

Ling Hefan stealthily observed his surroundings.

Everyone was watching the ball game, and it seemed no one was paying attention to him.

Good opportunity!

Ling Hefan immediately and stealthily stood up.

He didn't draw anyone's attention!

With a thumping heart, Ling Hefan continued to inch his way sideways.

Finally!

A few minutes later, Ling Hefan was out of the crowd's sight.

The high walls of the imperial palace were not far away.

As long as I can climb over this wall, I'll be free!

To avoid drawing attention, Ling Hefan didn't even dare to activate his true qi.

He walked towards the palace wall on foot.

As soon as he took two steps, he felt something grab his foot.

Ling Hefan trembled in fear and quickly turned his head to look.

The pervert wrapped in a white bedsheet was now lying on the ground.

His mouth was firmly biting his ankle...

"Dao... Daoist friend..."

Ling Hefan forced a smile that was uglier than crying...

"Daoist friend, where are you in such a hurry to go?"

Qu Baobao looked at Ling Hefan suspiciously.

His eyes revealed a hint of wisdom.

"I... I have an urgent need, going to the outhouse, yes, the outhouse!"

"You should have said so earlier!" Qu Baobao exclaimed as if enlightened, "Come, I'll lead the way."

Then, Qu Baobao found a direction, arched his body, and wriggled away.

Ling Hefan had no choice but to follow, his scalp tingling.

Before long, they reached the outhouse.

Upon seeing the location of the outhouse, Ling Hefan felt sick!

His original plan was to find an opportunity to escape once he arrived.

But...

What the hell is wrong with you people in the palace?

Why are you guarding the outhouse so heavily?!

For a mere outhouse, there were over a hundred guards surrounding it!

Although these guys didn't seem as strong as him, Ling Hefan no longer trusted strength rankings after what he had experienced.

Who knew if these guys would all turn into perverts when it came to a fight...

Moreover, even if these guys were truly ordinary, Ling Hefan didn't dare to make a move now.

Any engagement would require the use of true qi, which would definitely attract the attention of those perverts.

He had come this far, and he absolutely couldn't let his efforts be in vain!

Ling Hefan squatted and racked his brain for a solution.

But after much thought, he found that there seemed to be no viable option.

Climbing over the wall in full view of everyone was impossible unless he could evade their sight.

But outside, there were people everywhere, and he couldn't use his true qi, so how could he evade their sight?!

Hmm?

Wait a minute...

There were indeed people outside, but inside the outhouse, there was only him...

Ling Hefan stared intently at the squat toilet in front of him.

A bold idea gradually took shape in his mind...

The sewage in the outhouse must flow out of the palace through the underground channels...

And surely, those channels wouldn't be guarded, right?

But this path...

Ling Hefan's hands trembled slightly...

After all, making such a decision required immense courage...

After a long time.

Ling Hefan gritted his teeth and took Frostmourne from his back!

"Daoist friend, why is it taking so long?"

Qu Baobao's voice came from outside.

"Nothing, my stomach is a bit upset."

"Do you want me to find an imperial physician for you?"

"No need to trouble yourself."

"Alright then."

After ending the conversation, Ling Hefan slowly began to pry at the bricks on the ground...

His movements were light, as if afraid of being heard by the people outside.

The first brick of the outhouse was finally pried loose.

At the same time, Frostmourne also reacted.

He had been weak before, and after being kicked by Ling Hefan, he had fainted on the spot.

Now that he had just woken up, he smelled a strange odor...

"What is this godforsaken place..." Frostmourne muttered.

The next moment.

It was as if its tail had been stepped on, and it exploded with rage!

"Damn it, what are you doing!"

"Are you out of your mind?!"

"Get your noble body out of this filthy place at once!"

...

"Master, there's no other way," Ling Hefan stopped and communicated with Frostmourne helplessly, "Either we get out of here, or we die together..."

"Your brain is filled with... forget it!" Frostmourne roared, "Can't you just kill those weaklings outside and then leave?!"

"Master," Ling Hefan said with a serious expression, "Are you sure their cultivation levels are as they appear?"

"If we fight, true qi will inevitably be stirred, and that will attract the attention of those perverts."

"Or, do you have the confidence to defeat them?"

Ling Hefan bombarded him with a series of questions.

Frostmourne fell silent...

What else could he say at this point?

Was he going to admit that he couldn't defeat those perverts?

I am a dignified demonic sword, how can I say something so cowardly?!

Especially in front of this subordinate, how could he maintain his status in the future?

"These trash are not worth my effort!" Frostmourne retorted stubbornly, then its tone faltered, "Are there really... no other options?"

"I can't think of any," Ling Hefan said helplessly, "Why don't you think of one, Master?"

Fortunately, he and Frostmourne were communicating telepathically, otherwise Qu Baobao outside would have noticed long ago.

However, the situation was not optimistic.

"Daoist friend, are you alright?"

Qu Baobao's voice came from outside.

His tone sounded somewhat concerned.

"I'm fine..." Ling Hefan quickly replied.

"I think I'll find an imperial physician for you," Qu Baobao called out, "You, go and fetch the imperial physician."

"Yes!"

A guard responded and left.

Ling Hefan was terrified!

"Master, we're running out of time!" Ling Hefan urged, "Make a decision quickly!"

After a few seconds of silence, Frostmourne gritted its teeth!

"Be quick!"

Ling Hefan wasted no more words, grabbed Frostmourne, and continued to pry at the bricks.

Finally!

Before long, the opening was finally large enough for him to pass through.

Ling Hefan placed Frostmourne back on his back, took a deep breath.

With a determined look, Ling Hefan leaped into the pit!

"Plop!"

A muffled sound was heard.

Ling Hefan was submerged in the sewage.
