Chapter 129: Chapter 128 Jailbreak (1 more! Request for first order! Request for monthly ticket!)_2

Yue Guang’s emotions had finally settled down.

Because of the deaths of Thousand Spider Demon and Blood Demon, his recent malevolence was becoming less concealable.

Taking a deep breath, he calmly asked,

"What’s the situation with Li Baizhen?"

The Lin Family, not easy to strike against.

But for Li Baizhen, Yue Guang was confident he could deal with him.

This would be the first step in his revenge!

Yet, to Yue Guang’s surprise, Shi Chengxin spoke up,

"Li Baizhen? Since returning two days ago, he has stayed in the Foolish Underworld’s Prison without taking a single step outside, even taking care of eating and drinking in there."

"Prison?"

Yue Guang was stunned.

That place, wasn’t it breached by other demons, completely rendering the prison system inoperable?

Prisoners were either dead or had escaped.

The prison guards had been wiped out.

The entire prison was in ruins, needing reconstruction, with rules and staffing all in disarray.

What was Li Baizhen doing in there? Working on the reconstruction?

A derelict prison still needing a rank and file officer to oversee?

Nonsense.

Suddenly, Yue Guang thought of something, his heart inexplicably beating faster, and he grabbed Shi Chengxin by the hand,

"When exactly did Li Baizhen return two days ago?"

Shi Chengxin, bewildered by Yue Guang’s sudden seriousness, still responded,

"I don’t know, should have been some time before sunset."

"Before sunset? Was he seen by anyone then?"

"There must be witnesses, but we haven’t investigated."

"Since returning, Li Baizhen has been in the prison all this time?"

"Right, he’s been staying in the prison without leaving."

The timing...matches.

Could it really be...

Yue Guang’s breathing became hurried.

His feelings, absent for so long, were now a mix of excitement and nervousness.

But for now, everything was just speculation.

He forced himself to calm down.

"Li Baizhen must have caught something that day and has been interrogating it day and night in the prison."

Shi Chengxin’s eyes widened in shock.

"You mean, he’s caught a demon? And it’s being kept in the prison right now?"

"Very likely."

"Not good!" Shi Chengxin panicked,

"Based on the timeline, he must have ended the pursuit of you then headed straight to the Foolish Underworld. So, the person Li Baizhen has captured must be one of ours!"

There were words Shi Chengxin didn’t say aloud,

That is, if the imprisoned demon couldn’t withstand the pressure and gave them all away... the consequences would be unimaginable.

Shi Chengxin looked at Yue Guang and slowly made a throat-slitting gesture,

"I’ll find a chance, enter the prison, and give our captive kin an end."

This was a common, even rational, approach.

But unexpectedly, just after Shi Chengxin had finished speaking, Yue Guang glared at him in anger,

"Don’t you dare!"

"...It’s not that, Green Demon, if that guy leaks our intelligence, we’re all finished. Every extra second we spend in the Foolish Underworld is dangerous!"

"Don’t worry, I have my own plan. First, go check if anyone witnessed Li Baizhen’s return two days ago, and also call over the others."

If...the one locked in the prison was truly...

Then he still had a chance, to make amends for certain regrets!

Yue Guang looked thoughtfully towards the direction of the Prison.

Everything must be planned carefully, no rushing into things.

...

Prison, Grade A block, Cell No. 10.

Urgent!

Very urgent!

Fang Yu logged into the game, and upon opening his eyes, saw Li Baizhen dozing off, drooling.

Up and at ’em!

"Gurgle, gurgle, gurgle!"

Fang Yu opened his mouth, but only bubbles rose to the surface.

Because he was enclosed in something akin to a glass can, filled with a strange blue liquid.

Opening and closing his mouth, he could breathe freely.

But all sounds were muffled gurgles; only by pressing an ear to the glass could one faintly hear the sounds.

Fang Yu had no idea what the purpose of this construction was.

Two days.

Two whole days of game time, just locked up here, unable to do anything.

A crummy idea, that’s what it was!

Fang Yu slammed his fleshy head covered in blood and enveloping his body against the glass wall.

This finally woke Li Baizhen up.

"What’s going on? What’s going on? Is someone finally coming to break me out of jail?"

"Gurgle gurgle!!"

"Huh? What did you say?"

Li Baizhen pressed his ear against the glass wall.

Now, he could hear.

"Break out of jail my ass! Hurry up and let me out, if someone really were breaking into the jail, do you think you’d still be alive with the way you’re sleeping?"

"Hahaha! Still worried about me, that’s brotherly! Don’t worry, I’m fine with a bit of tiredness!"

You son of a...

"Gurgle gurgle!!"

Fang Yu was cursing, but Li Baizhen had already taken his ear away in advance, only able to hear the gurgling sound of bubbles from Fang Yu.

"Hahahahaha!" Li Baizhen laughed so obnoxiously.

I’ll give you that, Lao Liu!

Feels like I’ve been tricked!

Fang Yu was depressed. In the past two days, he had fallen behind in his development.

Looking at the forum, other players were vigorously engaged in martial arts training every day, encountering adventures, and their strength kept increasing.

Stuck in the same place, Fang Yu was so fed up he wanted to just break the damn can open and make a run for it.

Two days of soaking in water as soon as he logged on, who could stand that?

Li Baizhen had all the time to kill; Fang Yu, however, didn’t want to waste his time doing nothing.

But there was no helping it, it wasn’t up to Fang Yu to decide.

What a pitfall!

Who would’ve thought Li Baizhen was such a sly watch commander.

There’s a kind of beauty in a missing brainstem, stubborn as hell.

How did he even come up with such a hellish game plan, I might as well have just disappeared for a few days.

Fang Yu’s joy for the past two days was limited to scrolling through the forum.

If there was one silver lining, it was that he now had more free time to clean up the room, and with each meal, he got to eat hot food instead of fast food.

"Don’t get worked up, I know it’s hard for you to bear."

"I’m suffering too. With all this commotion outside, it’s a waste of my time as a hundred household to stay here doing nothing."

"The time is about right, the two days of ’intensive interrogation’ should yield some result."

"Here’s what, tonight I’m going to stir up some trouble, and you’ll take the chance to escape."

Finally, action is going to be taken!

But immediately, Fang Yu also had doubts.

"Gurgle gurgle?"

"What did you say?"

Li Baizhen pressed his ear closer and heard Fang Yu’s voice.

"This plan of yours to stir up trouble, isn’t it a bit too basic? Isn’t it too obvious?"

Li Baizhen said with a laugh, "Don’t worry about that, I assure you it won’t be as blatant."

"Tonight, I’m going to place some violent prisoners in here, and by some means, force them to make trouble and resist."

"Then, I’ll have someone on standby to open the door for you."

Fang Yu: ???

"Help me open the door? You’re going around in such big circles, only to have someone open the door for me??"

Li Baizhen cut him off.

"Don’t be hasty! I know you’re eager, but just listen to me, okay?"

"I’ll have an informant pretend to be a demon, then rescue you."

"My instructions to the informant are to counter them with their own strategy, you get it."

"Making the informant pretend to be a demon, saving you as a supposed comrade, the actual point being to let you escape in order to sniff out your demon comrades and find your hideouts."

"Of course, that’s the story for the informant. In reality, you’ll just knock the informant out and dump him on the side of the road."

"The real plan is still our original one. You make your escape, cleanse your identity, and return to the side of the demons. Got it?"

You’re playing nested dolls here!

Fang Yu was a bit dizzy from the explanation.

But he understood.

Simply put.

The situation was divided into two parts.

The first part is from the perspective of Li Baizhen’s trusted aide.

The second part is the true aspect of the situation that only he and Li Baizhen were aware of.

From the aide’s standpoint, his overt mission is to impersonate a demon compatriot, ’steal’ Li Baizhen’s key amidst the chaos, and facilitate my escape.

The real mission is to follow me to discover my demon comrades and their hideouts.

However, all of this is just the first layer.

Because the real plan has been singular all along.

To allow me to escape, cleanse my identity, and continue to lurk among the demons.

This aide is, from beginning to end, nothing but an unwitting pawn.

Clearing this up.

Fang Yu asked.

"Do you have someone in mind?"

"Of course."

Li Baizhen confidently uttered three words.

"Shi Chengxin."

Fang Yu: ...6.
