On Xuantian Christmas Day, the imperial court granted amnesty to the whole country, and the various states and cities drafted a list and reported it to the ministry. For ordinary people, this is a major event that may not be encountered in their lifetime.

How many families are overjoyed and eager to see their loved ones in prison see the light of day again. They work hard, rely on connections, make every effort, and send gold and silver in order for the names of their loved ones in prison to appear on that list.

It is no exaggeration to say that this time the imperial court granted amnesty to the whole country, and I don’t know how many government officials and gentry brokers were able to earn a full pension.

However, before the local list was submitted, a decree was issued within the imperial court.

Pardon the Prince of Zhennan, Prince Ji, and release him today!!!

"Prince Zhennan killed the Ouchi bodyguard of Yulongtai that day. This was a serious crime of treason..."

"The king of Zhennan has millions of troops, and he is strong in the southeast. He is too big to lose...The imperial court does not dare to show weakness like this."

"The imperial court has its own considerations... King Zhennan only has such an only son. If something unexpected happens... the higher-ups will also be scared."

"Yes, the place where Prince Zhennan is imprisoned is the [Zongtian Prison]. If he really dies there, it will simply force Prince Zhennan to rebel."

"Since he is a hot potato, it is better to send him out quickly and die outside than inside."

As soon as the edict came out, it immediately caused quite a shock inside and outside the court.

After all, Prince Zhennan was imprisoned for a serious crime back then. If it had been anyone else, his family would have been confiscated and his family exterminated. But now he was released after being imprisoned for more than a year, which naturally aroused a lot of discussion.

"Zongtian Prison...how come I haven't heard of this place?"

On the way to the western suburbs, Li Mo couldn't help but ask Feng Wannian.

"This is a place where members of the royal family or serious criminals are imprisoned. Most people don't even know..."

Feng Wannian looked at the scenery outside the car and whispered: "When Shenzong was in power, the prince conspired to rebel. The emperor was furious and trapped him in Xishan and imprisoned him until his death..."

"From then on, the [Zongtian Prison] was set up here to take care of the royal family members."

The prince's rebellion case during the Shenzong period had a great impact, but there are only a few words in the history books: the prince rebelled against the country, rebelled with force, and the emperor secretly punished his party members.

"An eternal king like Shenzong is unparalleled and invincible in the world... Being his prince is probably the most difficult job in the world..." Li Mo couldn't help but sigh.

"He has been sitting on the throne of the prince for fifty years... He is frightened and walking on thin ice. It is indeed not something that ordinary people can bear."

Feng Wannian nodded, deeply satisfied.

Shenzong was a man of great talent and strategy, and during his reign, he accomplished countless earth-shattering things. With such a father, as a prince, no matter how hard he worked or how he performed, he seemed to be in the dark.

The pressure on him can be imagined, not to mention that compared with Shenzong, his temperament is also very different.

Shenzong denounced it as indecisive, too many plans and too few decisions. If a son is not like his father, how can he avoid disaster?

"How can there be a fifty-year-old prince in this world?" Li Mo couldn't help but chuckle.

"alright……"

Feng Wannian raised his hand, glanced at Li Mo, and warned: "It's okay to say this behind someone's back. Don't talk nonsense outside."

Although Feng Wannian is known as a domineering swordsman, he still has a good sense of proportion. Unlike Li Mo, once he gets the upper hand, he is lawless and has no taboos.

It would be "disrespectful" if such words were heard by outsiders, especially when we are almost at the [Zongtian Prison].

"This is too biased. No one will know about it even after he dies."

Li Mo looked out the window. The barren mountains in the western suburbs were the most secluded. In the past, whenever there was a murder case in the capital, this was the best place to dump the body.

"Don't worry...after the case of Prince Shenzong, Zongtian Prison has become the most stringent one among the nine prisons in the capital."

There are nine famous prisons in the capital, such as the [Demon Locking Prison] in the Tianshi Mansion, the [Suppressing Spirit Prison] at the Xuantian Pavilion Lingmen... However, when it comes to the tightness of the guards, naturally they cannot be compared with the [Zongtian Prison]...

…

Who allowed all the royal family members to be imprisoned here!?

"arrive!"

After a while, the carriage entered the depths of the Western Mountain. Near the abyss, a magnificent building was built against the mountain, like an ancient building, almost integrated with the mountain.

"As expected, one man is in charge and no one can open it."

Li Mo only glanced at it and realized the danger. There seemed to be more than one terrifying aura hidden in the depths of this prison. It was so dark and terrifying that it was hard to imagine.

"Stop talking later. I went through a lot of trouble to get here to pick you up."

Feng Wannian pulled the corner of Li Mo's clothes and whispered instructions.

It stands to reason that Zongtian Prison is inaccessible to ordinary people, but who gave Feng Wannian so many connections and so many ways to go!?

"Understood, I always keep a low profile, don't worry." Li Mo nodded seriously.

Feng Wannian rolled his eyes and simply pretended not to hear.

"Is that Li Mo? It is true that Hongmen is the easiest place to raise such disaster stars."

At this moment, deep in Zongtian Prison, in a quiet stone room, a pair of cold eyes stared at the light and shadow in the void, and the figures of Li Mo and Feng Wannian were all in his sight.

The man was wearing heavy black armor, suppressing the aura of violence around him. The fluctuations he radiated made the entire stone room feel like an abyss, as if he would fall into despair if he stepped into it, and would never be able to extricate himself.

"He is just like the Black Sword back then, with great luck... He has not yet found his own path, but he is already possessing world-shaking skills."

At this moment, an indifferent voice came from the corner.

There sat a young man, wearing cloth, barefoot, without any extra decoration on his body, as simple as a farmer, but his hands were extremely white and slender.

"Junior brother, you are known as the leader of martial arts, but you have already suffered two big losses at his hands."

Xiao Weimou turned around and looked at his teacher, the most proud disciple, and couldn't help but chuckle and tease.

Xiao Weimou, Marquis of Wu Cheng, was not only the prison officer of [Zongtian Prison], but he was also a disciple of [Wuzong], one of the Seven Masters of Xuantian, and the senior brother of Wu Tianfeng.

"I'm using him to practice..."

Wu Tianfeng stood up slowly and looked at Li Mo in the light and shadow.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Master said that there is great terror between life and death. Life and death can be seen in terror, and the truth can be understood in life and death..."

"It's a pity that he is not strong enough to let me see the horror of life and death."

Wu Tianfeng shook his head. He seemed to have no human emotions at all. The look he looked at Li Mo was filled with a trace of regret and pity.

"Junior brother, you are possessed by a demon."

Xiao Weimou took a deep look at his junior brother who was obsessed with martial arts and seemed a little abnormal.

"Senior brother, if I enter the devil's path, I will use force to break the tribulation... For me, this is also a kind of detachment and a kind of training..."

Wu Tianfeng's face still had no expression. His eyes looked faintly at Li Mo and then at Xiao Weimou.

"Whether it's him, you, the master, or even the Xuantian Taoist species... they are all my profound entrances. I have to clear them one after another before I can see the ninth floor of martial arts..."

Wu Tianfeng whispered softly, the world was vast, but in his eyes, there seemed to be nothing else.

It was so crazy that even Xiao Weimou couldn't help but feel his eyebrows jump when he saw it.

"Junior brother, you are not a mortal, and your views are different from those of us. However, since this person has repeatedly opposed you and insulted my martial arts lineage, I naturally have to teach him a lesson."

Xiao Weimou turned around and looked at Li Mo with a cold look in his eyes.

"Don't touch him...if he becomes a fire, he will be my best whetstone." Wu Tianfeng said coldly.

"hey-hey……"

Xiao Weimou waved his hand and chuckled: "He is a member of the Hongmen, and this is the [Zongtian Prison]. Naturally, I will not kill people indiscriminately, but this person is too popular, but I want to give him a blow."

, kill him with the energy to let him know how powerful you are."

The faint words echoed in the quiet stone room, and the two figures in the light and shadow became full of fun in Xiao Weimou's eyes.

At this moment, Li Mo and Feng Wannian, led by two armored guards, walked through the long stone corridor and passed through three gates.

"Is it really so strict...are you afraid that someone will break into the prison?"

Nowadays, Li Mo holds the post of the Chief Director of Hongmen Prisons, and can be regarded as a semi-professional. Compared with Hongmen Prisons, after all, they are still inferior.

Apart from anything else, the guards here are all puppets, just like the two figures in front of them, who have puppet bodies but possess spiritual breath cultivation.

"The Ninth Prince once said that people are the greatest weakness of a prison..."

"So after his improvements, [Zongtian Prison] has almost no human guards..."

Feng Wannian explained.

"Ninth Prince!?" Li Mo was stunned for a moment.

"That's right... Among all your Majesty's princes, the Ninth Prince is unruly and often gets into trouble when he was young..."

Feng Wannian curled his lips and said: "I heard that it was common for him to enter [Zongtian Prison]. Over time, he even pointed out the omissions here..."

"Every time I prove it by my escape from prison!"

"this……"

Li Mo was speechless. From this point of view, this Ninth Prince was really a different kind.

"The Ninth Prince once said that as long as we are human, we have weaknesses. This weakness may become the biggest loophole in a prison..."

Feng Wannian continued: "For example, if some masters are imprisoned in prison, if the guards cannot resist the temptation, talk to them, or even use them to practice..."

"Such actions are tantamount to self-stealing. Sooner or later, this person will become a loophole..."
To be continued...
