An Unexpected Disaster
"Black Prison Edict?"
Ye Fei was shocked. He knew about the Black Prison. Even his Ice Domain was stolen from the Black Prison. Even the Shadow Dancer Bloodline was from the Black Prison.
At first, Ye Fei thought that the Black Prison had been destroyed or declined. That was why they left the ruins in the market. But now, it seemed that the Black Prison had not declined.
A declining assassin organization would not do such a shocking thing. They actually issued an edict to all the forces in the Middle State.
What was an edict?
Only the Emperor's orders could be called an edict. Even the Heaven Rank disciples of the True Martial Sacred Academy were called the Emperor. Their orders could only be called an edict and not an edict. This was also the respect that the forces in the Middle State had for the Emperors.
"Seems like the Middle State will not be peaceful in the future. First, the Human Demon Palace returned from the Starry Sky. Now, the Black Prison, which has been silent for a long time, is announcing their existence in such a high profile manner …"
Ye Fei could not help but suspect that the great era that the Guardian Elder mentioned might be coming soon. Otherwise, these forces that had been silent for a long time would not appear in the Middle State at the same time. Not to mention, there were also the Sorcerers and Di Fan, who was a Natural Saint.
"Oh right, is there any news about the Hall of Life and Death in the past two years?" Ye Fei continued to ask.
"I have not heard of the Hall of Life and Death before." The young official shook his head embarrassedly.
Ye Fei then remembered that this young official was just an official in charge of tax collection at the dock. He was not even Wu Jun. He was not qualified to know about the secrets of the Hall of Life and Death.
"Seems like I have to go back to the True Martial Sacred Academy and ask the Dean if I want to know about the Hall of Life and Death." Ye Fei did not forget that behind the Hall of Life and Death stood the Sorcerers, the great enemy of the Sky Martial Continent.
"Thank you."
After bidding farewell to the official and handing over the rented warship, Ye Fei quickly left the dock and walked into Snow Blowing City. He planned to rest here for the night and have a big meal before rushing back to the Real Martial Sacred Courtyard as soon as possible.
At the same time, he also wanted to find out more about the contents of the Black Prison Edict. And the best place to find out was the restaurant.
Ye Fei had been to Snow Blowing City more than once, so he was quite familiar with this place. He quickly found the largest restaurant in Snow Blowing City. Many martial artists who had just returned from the sea had gathered here. When they returned to the Central Province, the first thing they did was to come here and inquire about the latest situation.
And the most explosive news was undoubtedly the Black Prison Edict that had recently spread throughout the Central Region. There were even people who specially posted a copy of it in the restaurants of Snow Blowing City.
"Everyone, come and take a look. This is the Black Prison Edict that was copied from the Empire. It was just sent here a few days ago …"
The appearance of the edict attracted a large number of martial artists to surround and watch very quickly. Although the local ancient martial art practitioners had already seen the edict, most of the people in the restaurant had just returned from the sea, so there were still many people who came to see it every day.
Ye Fei also squeezed into the crowd and looked at the Black Prison Edict. With just one look, he could not help but widen his eyes in shock. An extremely strange expression flashed across his face.
Even more warriors cried out in surprise.
"Heavens, how is this an edict? This is simply an ultimatum. This Black Prison is too crazy. They actually threatened to assassinate all the geniuses on the edict!"
"Demon Saint Ye Fei, White-clothed War God Di Fan, Goddess Lu Qing, Heavenly Law Academy's Saintess Zhao Yu, Heavenly Book Academy's new Saint Dongfang Yu, and a few hidden geniuses of Quasi-emperor clans. All of them are the targets of Black Prison's assassination …"
"It must be fake. Forget about the Four Great Sacred Academies, they even dare to assassinate the geniuses of Quasi-emperor clans and Martial Emperor clans. What kind of assassin organization is so arrogant? If Black Prison was so powerful, they would have already ruled the entire Central Province!" Some people refused to believe it. They thought that this was just sensationalism or simply a prank.
Immediately, someone echoed, "Indeed, the content of this edict is too exaggerated. It's just an unknown assassin organization. What foundation do they have that they dare to become enemies with all the forces of the Central Province?"
"Black Prison does not need a foundation. Its name is its foundation! As long as Black Prison appears, that place is hell on earth, the nightmare of Martial Gods, and the source of fear for Heavenly Venerates! "
In the crowd, an old man with a white beard stroked his beard and sneered at the surrounding cultivators. Many cultivators were unconvinced by his words.
Immediately, someone retorted, "Who doesn't know how to boast? Since Black Prison is so powerful, why hasn't Black Prison assassinated anyone?"
The old man smiled, "You don't understand. Black Prison's rules are that before they assassinate someone, they will issue the Black Prison Edict one month in advance. Sudden assassinations are done by the weakest assassins. The strongest assassins will give the other party enough time to prepare before launching the attack. This is Black Prison's style and also the boldness that Black Prison should have as the Dark Emperor."
"…"
The surroundings were deathly silent. All the cultivators looked at the copy of the Black Prison Edict. They were so shocked that they were speechless. Assassins who launched sneak attacks in the dark were not scary. However, assassins who openly warned their targets before carrying out the assassination were truly scary.
"Such an assassin is either a lunatic or has absolute confidence in assassinating his target!"
"What a good Black Prison. When did such a strong assassin organization appear in Middle State?"
"Not only are they strong, they are ridiculously strong and ridiculously arrogant. They don't even put the forces of Middle State in their eyes …"
"Oh right, shouldn't the strongest in Middle State be the Martial Emperor family? Why is the Holy Son of the True Martial Sacred Academy ranked first?" Suddenly, someone noticed something wrong with the Black Prison Edict.
Immediately, someone in the know whispered, "Shh, don't tell anyone. I heard that the Demon Saint Ye Fei is crazy. Not only did he defeat the Goddess Lu Qing, he even made her sleep with him every day and humiliated her. In my opinion, Black Prison chose to assassinate Ye Fei first because he couldn't stand this demon's arrogance and impudence! "
"Damn, the Holy Son of the True Martial Sacred Academy is such a beast?"
"Support Black Prison and return our Goddess …"
"This damned Demon Saint. If Black Prison really assassinates Demon Ye, I will be the first to set off firecrackers to celebrate! I will also beat drums and gongs to tell the whole city! "
A few of the young masters in the crowd were furious. They couldn't wait to drag Ye Fei out and beat him to death on the spot. It could be seen how popular Lu Qing was. Not only did she have many admirers in the Four Great Sacred Academies, she was also admired by many young geniuses in the Empire of Middle State.
As the news spread rapidly, Ye Fei naturally became the target of hatred for these young geniuses. Ye Fei was also eating and drinking not far away. When he heard the news, he almost choked to death on the spot.
