Chapter 2193: In Front of the Thousand Prison Tower, Loyalty Test

One after another, the guards chased into the Holy Son’s Gate, and in the blink of an eye, the nocturnal tour of the Holy Son ended, leaving only the dumbfounded people around the street, as all the worshippers felt deep humiliation at this moment.

How could their idol, Qianwang Saint Son, be treated like this?

There was an uproar and a myriad of angry roars that finally resounded through the clouds at this moment.

Young men and women furiously cursed Demon Master Sikong, and the uproar here immediately attracted strong figures from all parts of Qianwang Holy Tower, frantically rushing towards the Holy Son’s Gate.

The number of people was ten times more than in Fenglei City. After all, the strong figures were now all from Ten Emperor Cities.

Simultaneously, the experts from Qianwang Holy City started taking action.

Some went to track down and find those who had just shouted "Emperor’s Bloodline," while others guarded carefully with great vigilance.

It was even more so in Qianwang Golden Light Tower, as powerful auras soared into the sky, and the Golden Light Tower Formation kept operating incessantly.

...

At the same time, in the plaza in front of the Thousand Prison Tower at the center of Dark Light Building...

Pei Kuang was sitting on a golden seat, placed right at the entrance of the Thousand Prison Tower. Beside him stood the loyal Qian Ta, while in front of them were masked chess pieces from the Thousand Prison Tower.

At this moment, Qian Ta seemed to have just announced something, causing all the Thousand Prison Tower chess pieces to tremble continuously.

But... boom boom boom!

As the powerful auras erupted from the Golden Light Tower’s direction, all masked chess pieces instinctively looked over, Pei Kuang and Qian Ta similarly raised their brows at the direction of the Golden Light Tower.

This was the Dark Light Building, so the voices from the Holy Son’s Gate hadn’t reached here yet.

Until... Report!

A voice rang out, the reporter hurriedly saying, "Tower Master, Demon Master Sikong appeared at the Holy Son’s Gate, and he, he, he... also took the Saint Son as a hostage and boldly stormed into our Golden Light Tower."

Upon hearing this, many Thousand Prison Tower chess pieces trembled violently.

Among them, Fu Miaoling, who had been secretly brought into Dark Light Building earlier, clenched her fist: "He’s here, Young Master Sikong has finally arrived."

She was also wearing a mask at this moment.

Pei Kuang wouldn’t allow the chess pieces to remember each other’s faces; of course, the masks were provided by Pei Kuang. As for how Fu Miaoling evaded Holy Craftsman Mountain’s watch to get here...

Since Holy Craftsman Mountain also entered Qianwang Holy City, Pei Kuang naturally had ways.

The same logic applies to other chess pieces, regardless of their circumstances or status, Qianwang Holy Tower naturally has its means of gathering them here silently...

Likewise, the chess pieces are each extraordinarily capable, having numerous methods to escape surveillance, and so on.

Meanwhile, the boss of Ba You Restaurant in Overlord City also tightly clenched his fist; he was the first to ally with Sikong Jing, aside from Yao Yulou and Xiong Tingting, or one might say, the first to proactively ally.

His eyes behind the mask scanned the chess pieces around him who shared the same fate.

He saw that some of them, like him, clenched their fists...

And this action was exactly the agreed-upon signal for when Sikong Jing appeared, to clench their fists, indicating that they had already joined forces with him as chess pieces.

With one glance, about forty percent were present.

Like the boss of Ba You, all allied chess pieces were also observing around, their confidence swelling at this moment.

Previously, it was the remnants of Su Old Demon who mentioned that forty percent were ready to resist. The chess pieces do not communicate with one another, so they didn’t know if it was true. Now seeing the fist signal, they knew it was true beyond doubt.

Which means, soon they would accompany Young Master Sikong to fight tooth and nail, thus their confidence soared.

While the chess pieces were silently steeling themselves, Pei Kuang coldly glared at the reporter but did not erupt in rage or impulsively stand up; instead, he said calmly, "Continue..."

The reporter naturally quickly relayed everything happening in front of the Holy Son’s Gate.

Which naturally also included, Sikong Jing luring away with the Emperor’s Bloodline.

Pei Kuang still had no particular expression, but Qian Ta was already impatient: "Tower Master, Little Demon Sikong..."

Before he could finish, Pei Kuang waved to stop him: "His courage is enormous, but what’s the hurry? He is only one man, using the Saint Son as a pawn to negotiate with me, then I shall negotiate with him properly."

"I’d like to see what tricks he has up his sleeve."

Having said this, Pei Kuang instructed the reporter: "Transmit my order, let Little Demon Sikong come straight here to meet me. No one else needs to make a move, ensuring the Saint Son’s safety is paramount."

The reporter received the order and immediately left.

Qian Ta slightly calmed down, looking puzzled at Pei Kuang: "Tower Master, what gives Little Demon Sikong the confidence to do this?"

Qian Ta was truly perplexed, for Sikong the demon to enter Qianwang Holy City was one thing, but to dare enter their Golden Light Tower?

Even if he took the Saint Son hostage, must he be so reckless?

Pei Kuang’s eyes slightly squinted, speaking softly, "There must be a traitor who has informed him about Jiang Wanyou still being alive, and further, the news of Evil Charm Sacred Body nearing success."

With these words, Qian Ta suddenly glared at the chess pieces before him.

Pei Kuang continued: "He had no choice but to venture here, he must ensure I don’t obtain the Youmei Holy Body, so his first condition will certainly be... to exchange the Saint Son’s life for Yao Yulou and Jiang Wanyou."

Upon hearing this, Qian Ta trembled again, suddenly enlightened.

Everyone knows, swallowing the Youmei Holy Body leads to immense vital explosion, and if the Overlord Commerce lets the Tower Master succeed, it’ll practically mean defeat, leaving them without even the slightest chance.

Thus, Demon Master Sikong must risk it...

Truth be told, Pei Kuang’s thoughts don’t just end there; he also considered Sikong Jing daring to enter the Golden Light Tower might mean he has some terrifying means, perhaps Su Beiheng isn’t completely destroyed?

He wasn’t sure whether Su Beiheng was truly dead, his heart couldn’t help but harbor anxiety.

Within the Canglong Small Domain, the shadow brought by Su Beiheng was too overwhelming.

Therefore, Pei Kuang lightly toyed with an ancient stone in his hand; Pei Kuang also possessed formidable resources to counter everything, though he’d not summon them unless absolutely necessary.

Summoning the Six-clawed Evil Heart Mixed Beast was his utmost important trump card.

Reflecting on this, Pei Kuang suddenly looked coldly at the chess pieces before him, "Who among you is the traitor to Qianwang? It might be one of you, now continue the loyalty test..."

His words swept over all the Thousand Prison Tower chess pieces, each of them slightly trembling.

Those with clenched fists also slowly released them, the signal temporarily ending here.

Before the report on Demon Master Sikong arrived, Qian Ta had just uttered the words "loyalty test," so those who had joined Sikong Jing feared exposure, worried of being prematurely revealed.

Since at that time, there had been no news of Sikong Jing approaching.

If Sikong Jing hadn’t arrived, they might not withstand the test, risking the fate of themselves and their families trapped in the Thousand Prison Tower.

Now, however, they firmly resolved to confront Pei Kuang!
