Stone Hammer didn't budge as he looked at Tang Shi and said, "If you don't respect us, then please leave!"
Tang Shi narrowed his eyes, then he looked at Stone Hammer and said, "Do you know why we're here? Are you the one who killed Tang Fei? So you don't want us to investigate? "
Stone Hammer looked at Tang Shi, then he sneered and said, "Do you think we are? When did the Holy Court become the ruler of this world? Let me tell you, the City Lord has given his orders. Either you follow our rules or you scram. You can choose. Do you still want to use the Holy Court to pressure us? Alright, you can make your move. My Master entered the Secret Realm and died inside. I'm not afraid to tell you that I'm the only one here today. There are 100 of you here, all of you are at the Void Realm. With just you, you can control Spirit Snake City. But you need to think about the consequences. "
When Tang Shi heard Stone Hammer, he couldn't help but stare. Then his eyes opened wide as he looked at Stone Hammer with a cold glint in his eyes. After taking a few deep breaths, Tang Shi finally let out a long breath and said, "Alright, the Lost Soul City is really powerful. We're willing to follow your orders."
Stone Hammer looked at Tang Shi, then he suddenly smiled and said, "I don't know if we're strong or not, but I can see that you're quite strong. Hehe, since Mister has agreed to follow our Lost Soul City-State's plan, then that's for the best. We've already arranged accommodations for everyone, please come with me." Then Stone Hammer moved to the side and made a gesture.
Tang Shi looked at Stone Hammer's appearance, his expression couldn't help but turn gloomy. He was really angry, but he couldn't let it out right now. However, he had already thought about it. After arriving at the Lost Soul City, he would send one or two people outside to investigate. He didn't believe that the Lost Soul City was completely fine. Even if there was no problem, he would still be able to investigate. When the time comes, he would make the Lost Soul City look good.
Before long, Stone Hammer led Tang Shi and the others to a large courtyard. The courtyard's walls were very high and looked very sturdy. It was unknown where this place used to be.
Stone Hammer walked towards the courtyard's gate. The gate was made of iron as thick as a child's arm. It looked very heavy. Upon seeing this, Tang Shi's expression couldn't help but change. He suddenly thought of a place, it was the prison!
Shi Chui led Tang Shi and the others to the courtyard. Tang Shi looked at the courtyard, then he turned to Shi Chui and said, "Where is this place?"
Stone Hammer smiled and said, "This place, it's a good place. This place used to be our Lost Soul City's military camp, but it's not anymore. This place is now the most famous hotel in the Lost Soul City. The City Lord personally named this place, the Coiled Dragon Hotel. Don't look at its appearance, it's very comfortable inside." Then Stone Hammer opened the gate and made an inviting gesture to Tang Shi and the others.
Tang Shi and the others coldly snorted and then walked inside. Stone Hammer also followed them. Before long, the group entered the courtyard. Upon entering the courtyard, Tang Shi and the others couldn't help but stare. When they saw the courtyard, they thought that it was a prison. The hotel that Stone Hammer mentioned wasn't a lie. But now that they entered the courtyard, they felt that it was different. The courtyard was really beautiful, there were all kinds of plants growing everywhere. Moreover, there were also fake mountains and flowing water. There were also beautiful houses in the courtyard. It was impossible for this place to be a prison.
Upon seeing the environment, Tang Shi couldn't help but feel relieved. His expression relaxed as he turned to Stone Hammer and said, "Thank you Mister. I didn't expect Mister to arrange such a place for us. I'm very grateful."
Stone Hammer smiled and said, "There's no need for that. Our City Lord said that everyone here has worked hard to investigate this case, so it's only right for everyone to have a good rest. Right, because I'm afraid that everyone would have something to discuss, I didn't arrange anyone to serve everyone here. However, everything is available. If you don't want to be served, then I won't send anyone here. If you need someone to serve you, then I'll send someone here immediately."
Tang Shi shook his head and said, "No need, we can still take care of ourselves. Thank you Mister."
Stone Hammer smiled and said, "Mister is too polite. If there's nothing else, then I'll take my leave first. Tomorrow, I'll look for Mister and accompany you in your investigation. Right, I forgot to tell Mister that you don't have a pass to the Lost Soul City. So after you arrive here, it's best if you don't go out. Otherwise, if something happens, then the Lost Soul City won't be responsible."
Tang Shi's good mood suddenly turned bad. He turned to Stone Hammer and said, "Mister, what do you mean?"
Stone Hammer looked at Tang Shi, then he smiled faintly and said, "It's exactly what I said." Then he turned around and left the courtyard. Then he waved his hand as the iron gate of the courtyard slammed shut. Two soldiers stood in front of the gate, making it look like a prison.
Tang Shi's face paled as he looked at Stone Hammer. He didn't expect Stone Hammer to do this. This wasn't just a warning, it was also a threat.
What Tang Shi didn't know was that this Coiled Dragon Inn was actually a prison in the past. Moreover, it was the most famous prison in the Lost Soul City. The prisoners here were all serious criminals, and these criminals were experts. After the war between the city-states, a city-state was defeated. However, the experts of the city-state weren't killed, but they didn't surrender. In the end, they were captured and imprisoned here. At that time, this place was called the Coiled Dragon Prison.
At that time, the environment of the Coiled Dragon Prison wasn't as good as it is now. Later on, Zhao Hai unified the Lost Soul City. All the experts of the city-state became his slaves, so the Coiled Dragon Prison became useless. Zhao Hai thought that it would be a waste to keep ordinary prisoners here. Later on, he thought of a way to change the Coiled Dragon Prison into the Coiled Dragon Inn. This was because Zhao Hai knew that people were curious. Some unusual things could attract people. Because of this, Zhao Hai changed the prison into a hotel. Moreover, the interior was very beautiful.
The Coiled Dragon Inn was now very famous in the Lost Soul City. It wasn't a place that ordinary people could afford to live in. This time, it was vacated by Stonehammer and the others in order to give Tang Shi and the others a place to live. The environment here was indeed very good. However, this place used to be a prison. After changing the inn, some of the prison's layout didn't change. For example, the outer walls of the prison, the iron gates, the large stones on the ground, and the plants that grew on top of the stones. Moreover, the stones were one meter thick.
Now that Tang Shi and the others were living in the Coiled Dragon Inn, as long as the iron gates were closed, they would be able to leave by climbing over the walls. Now that they were monitoring the outside, they were under the control of Stonehammer and the others. Even a fly would be discovered, let alone a living person.
Tang Shi also discovered that he made a mistake this time. The Lost Soul City wasn't polite to them at all. It was as if they weren't afraid of the Sacred Institute.
A person beside Tang Shi couldn't help but ask, "Brother Tang, what should we do now? Those fellows won't keep us here forever, right? "
Tang Shi took a deep breath and said, "I don't think so. There must be something going on with the Lost Soul City-State. Otherwise, they wouldn't treat us like this. Strange, very strange. Their hostility towards the Sacred Institute is too big. What's going on here?" Tang Shi nodded and said, "Yes.
The person said, "Brother Tang, do you think it's because of the Crane Field Grass? I heard that the Crane Field Grass was an important person in the Lost Soul City. He had a very good relationship with the City Lord. Now that the Crane Field Grass died in the Secret Realm, this Stonehammer should be the servant of the Crane Field Grass. It's normal for them to have such a reaction. "
Tang Shi nodded, then he said, "Little Five, I know what you're talking about. I just want to know if Little Fei's death has anything to do with the Lost Soul City."
Little Five thought for a moment, then he said, "Brother Tang, to be honest, I don't think that this matter was done by the Lost Soul City. Little Fei went to the Lost Soul City before, but at that time, he didn't even enter the city. It can be said that the Lost Soul City didn't give Little Fei any face. Because of this, they have no reason to kill Little Fei. Although the Lost Soul City has a grudge with the Sacred Court, Little Fei doesn't represent the Sacred Court. The Lost Soul City also knows that killing Little Fei would be useless. Instead, it would bring them a lot of trouble. Crane Field Grass caused a huge ruckus, even killing a few River Breaking Realm experts. In the end, he still went to the Secret Realm to accept his death. Because of this, I think that the Lost Soul City doesn't want to be enemies with the Secret Realm. In this case, they wouldn't make a move against Little Fei. The reason why they made things difficult for us and Little Fei is just to make us look bad, to make the Sacred Court lose face. I don't believe that they were the ones who killed Little Fei." Tang Shi listened to Little Five's words and nodded.
Tang Shi quietly listened to Zhao Hai's words, he waited for Zhao Hai to finish before he nodded and said, "Right, what you said makes sense. It seems like we made a mistake in coming to Lost Soul City. However, we can't just leave like this. I've heard people say that Lost Soul City is a good place, but I didn't believe it. Now that we have the opportunity, I want to see if Lost Soul City is really as good as they say. We'll wait here for a few days and see what they do. If they didn't do it, then we'll just have to endure a little bit of anger, I can still take it." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Yes, what you said makes sense. It seems like we made a mistake in coming to Lost Soul City.
Little Five opened his mouth and said, "This is Brother Tang. If it were the other captains, then they might have already started fighting. If we fight here, then it would be even more troublesome. Although the Lost Soul City has gone overboard, the current situation in the continent isn't good. No matter who is at fault, if we make a move, then those people would blame it on us. When that time comes, it would be even more troublesome."
Tang Shi nodded. He looked up at the sky and said in a deep voice, "It will be over. It will definitely be over. Everything that we have suffered today, we will remember. Sooner or later, I will make you pay with interest."
