"What?" Shangguan Wan 'er's father was stunned. His face was filled with disbelief. He didn't expect that something like this would happen in the Flame Empire.
What time was it?
The Flame Empire was in danger.
But now, something like this actually happened.
"I will go to the Flame Palace now. Inform the Prime Minister." Shangguan Wan 'er's father was solemn.
"Yes, Sir!"
Shangguan Wan 'er's father wasn't a nobody either. His name was Shangguan Tianhong, and he was a Rank 1 Investigator of the Flame Empire. He also had a super army under his command. However, he didn't usually use the army for his own use because the Prime Minister had given them a very serious education.
He wasn't allowed to use the Flame Empire's army for his own use. He also didn't allow any subordinates to send him gifts.
He wasn't even allowed to have personal relationships with them.
They could be comrades but they couldn't be friends.
They weren't allowed to have any dealings with money or power in private.
"Wan 'er, don't wander around the house. This is a special time. Other than the Prime Minister's Residence, nowhere else is safe." Shangguan Tianhong instructed.
"Father, what about Xiatian?" Shangguan Wan 'er hurriedly Asked.
"Don't worry. Your grandfather will think of a way." After Shangguan Tianhong finished speaking, he waved his hand at the people beside him. "Order the Fire Dragon Guards to lock down the entire city and search. Do not miss any clues. I want to find the enemy within 20 hours."
"Yes!!"
Phew!
Shangguan Tianhong let out a long sigh. "The Flame Empire is going to change."
"What did you say?" The faces of the Lieutenant Generals of the city guards changed.
"The Crown Prince was attacked. The assassin was killed but the Sect Leader was attacked too. He was heavily injured."
"It's over!" The few lieutenant generals were stunned.
The few of them and the army were the city guards that guarded the street where the Crown Prince and the Master of Tantric Buddhism lived. But this time, they had mobilized all the city guards and even came over themselves. This caused the defense to be empty and gave the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of it.
This was a crime that could cost them their lives.
"No, take them to the prison. We need to go to the Crown Prince. Only the Crown Prince can save our lives now." The Lieutenant Generals were all very scared.
They were working for the Crown Prince.
That was why he left his post without permission.
They knew very well that although they were lieutenant generals, they were different from the lieutenant generals who fought outside. If those people made a mistake, they would at most be demoted. However, they were lieutenant generals of the city guard. Their only duty was to protect the big shots in the city.
Now, the big shots and the Crown Prince had been attacked.
Moreover, they were attacked when they were absent from their posts.
If the higher-ups were to pursue the matter, then they might not be able to keep their heads. Even if they didn't lose their heads, if they were chased out of the city guards, then they would definitely die. They knew what they had done.
They often bullied others, and because of their high status and power, they acted tyrannically.
Once they lost their identity, there would be many people who wanted to deal with them.
"Hey, can you guys move a little faster? This sedan chair isn't very comfortable," Xiatian said lazily as he lay there.
"Hmph, don't worry. We've arranged a good place for you in a while. Once I'm done with the matters at hand, I'll take good care of you." The major general snorted coldly. Now that such a big thing had happened in the city, he had to strictly guard his post in a while.
"Okay, thank you for taking care of me," Xiatian said.
Speed up!
The team sped up.
Their speed became even faster.
Very fast!
In the summer, they were brought to the location of the underground prison. This place was very dark and very humid. There were all kinds of formations everywhere, and in the summer, they discovered that the cages and stone walls here were all Cultivation Dispersing Stones and Cultivation Dispersing Metals.
"Put the dispersing handcuffs on him, then throw him into the Crime Prison. Remember, remind the people inside to take good care of him, but don't let him die," the major general ordered directly.
"Don't worry, we're good friends. I promise to take care of these things for you," the warden said.
"Don't joke around. This person is wanted by the Crown Prince. No mistakes can be made, otherwise, both of our lives will be lost," the major general reminded.
"The Crown Prince!" The warden was stunned.
Then, his expression turned serious.
"Okay, be careful. I still have things to deal with. I'll come back when I'm done," the major general said.
"Okay!"
After saying that, the major general left.
The warden waved his hand, "Search everything on him. Don't leave anything behind. Then change into a prisoner's uniform and put on handcuffs and anklets."
"Yes!"
A few prison guards walked over to him.
When they walked to Xiatian's side, they wanted to pull Xiatian's clothes.
But they suddenly realized that they couldn't pull it.
"What are you doing? Haven't you eaten? Can't you tear a piece of clothing? "the warden scolded.
"Take out your weapons." The prison guards looked at each other.
Then they took out their knives and cut Xiatian's clothes.
Poof!
Just as the knives in their hands were about to cut …
Their knives melted in mid-air.
"Huh?" Seeing this scene, the prison guards were stunned. They didn't expect something like this to happen.
"Hmph, he's still not being honest. How dare he use the fire element to protect his body. Come, put the handcuffs and anklets on him. I'll see how he can resist then," the warden ordered.
Then the prison guards brought the handcuffs and anklets over.
Xiatian didn't resist.
They put the handcuffs and anklets on Xiatian directly.
Then they cut Xiatian's clothes with their knives.
Poof!
The knives melted again.
"What's going on?" The warden was stunned.
He had already put the handcuffs and anklets on Xiatian. Xiatian shouldn't be able to resist.
"Warden, maybe he has the fire element. So, although the handcuffs and anklets are on, the fire element in his body will automatically protect his body. But it'll be fine once the fire element is used up. We can throw him into the Sin Prison first and let the people inside beat him up for a while. Then it'll be used up," the prison guard said.
"Okay." The warden nodded.
Then the prison guard led Xiatian inside.
It was downhill. Xiatian walked for a long time.
"Hu Tou, this is osmanthus wine and red crane meat. It says that you should take good care of this newcomer, but don't let him die." The prison guard handed the things inside.
