Wolf Smoke Mountain Prison, District Seven.
A bare-chested youth sat cross-legged on a bare rock on a mountain peak, allowing the morning dew to fall on his body.
The temperature in the mountains was always the lowest between midnight and dawn. This naked youth was actually not afraid of the cold. It was truly an eye-opener.
The most surprising thing was that there was a Little Hei dog lying on the youth's shoulder. The Little Hei dog was also not afraid of the cold and was obediently napping on the youth's shoulder.
Who else could this youth be but Yang Wu?
In yesterday's battle, he had used all his strength and was seriously injured. But now, not only had his injuries recovered, his strength had also increased by a lot. He had opened a total of 81 acupoints and was getting closer and closer to the 108 acupoints.
As long as he opened the 108 acupoints, he would reach the realm of a high-ranking warrior and form a small circulation. His mystical Qi would be mobilized faster and his combat strength would rise to another level.
Taking a closer look, the dew that fell on Yang Wu's body did not come naturally. Some of it was absorbed by him from other directions. After these dew drops fell on his body, the bone-chilling water was completely absorbed by his pores.
This astonishing suction power was the work of the Sovereign Nine Mysteries Formula.
This supreme formula had been upgraded by the Preexistence Mystical Essence Qi and became even more powerful. Yang Wu could clearly feel the power of this formula. If he could collect the other eight types of Mystical Essence Qi, his success would be beyond his imagination.
Yang Wu did not think too much about it for now. His current situation was not good. What he did in District Seven would definitely be spread immediately. As for those who wanted his life, they would not sit by and watch him go on like this. He had to think of a way to deal with them.
The morning dew gradually decreased and the coldness dissipated. The sun rose from the east and purple air came from the east.
Yang Wu was like a saint descending. His body was plated with a thin layer of purple light. This purple light was directly absorbed into his body. His Peach Core Dantian was like a sweet spring and swallowed it in an instant. Traces of purple air rose from his thousand pores. Yang Wu was also affected. His entire person had an indescribable noble aura.
This strand of purple air was much more than the one he had absorbed before. The connected acupoints were all filled up by this purple air. The air swirls were like stars, strengthening his physique.
After this battle, Yang Wu was very clear about the advantages he had. It was something that others could not compare to.
First of all, the Xuan Qi contained in his Dantian was ten times or even ten times more than his peers. Secondly, the Xuan Qi had transformed into Xuan Essence Qi. Its lethality was not something that ordinary Xuan Qi could compare with. Lastly, the combination of the Supreme Nine Mysteries Formula and the Dragon Turtle Water Suppression Stance allowed him to continuously absorb water Xuan Qi from the outside world. It would constantly replenish his Xuan Qi and allow him to fight for a long time. As for his recovery ability, it was unparalleled. Even a King would be jealous of it.
These were all his advantages. As long as he grasped these advantages well, it would not be long before he became a top warrior.
The most important thing now was to increase his strength and protect himself. He also needed to accumulate enough Red Steel Ores to get rid of his identity as a prison slave.
Originally, he had hoped that Wan Lanxin or Meng Helang would help him. After yesterday's battle, he did not dare to have any extravagant hopes. It was more realistic to rely on himself.
A slight sound of footsteps rang in his ears. A charming woman and a fat man appeared behind him.
"Greetings, Young Master!" The woman and the fat man knelt down together and said respectfully.
Yang Wu did not turn his head or say anything. He let the two of them kneel for a full fifteen minutes. Then, he said indifferently, "Get up!"
The two of them were sweating profusely, but they did not dare to show any dissatisfaction. After hearing the voice, they felt as if they had been pardoned. Most of the stone in their hearts had been lifted.
Xu Jiaohua spoke first, "Young Master, Fatty Dong and I cleaned up the seventh district together. Most people are convinced by you. We beat up those who spread rumors."
"I don't care about that. I only want the Red Steel Ores!" Yang Wu replied.
"Young Master, Black Gorilla has already accumulated sixty thousand Red Steel Ores. They are all in the stone house in the mountain peak. He only needs forty thousand more to reach a hundred thousand!" Xu Jiaohua replied.
Fatty Dong said, "Other than the Red Steel Ores that have to be handed in on time every day, he will accumulate a hundred thousand Red Steel Ores in about two months."
"Two months? That's so long!" Yang Wu sighed softly.
Now, he did not want to stay in the Mountain Prison for even a moment. He wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.
"The fastest … The fastest it will take is a month and a half!" Fatty Dong said awkwardly.
"Is there no other way to increase the speed of accumulation?" Yang Wu asked.
Fatty Dong did not dare to speak anymore.
Xu Jiaohua hesitated for a moment before saying, "There is a way, but …"
"But what? If you have something to say, just say it. I am not as scary as you think. "
"Before Black Gorilla died, he told me that the seven prison slave bosses had an agreement that they could challenge each other. As long as they had enough Red Steel Ores as the wager, the winner would get the other party's Red Steel Ores. This method should allow Young Master to accumulate Red Steel Ores faster." Xu Jiaohua said honestly.
"There is such a thing? Tell me about it in detail! "Yang Wu said with a hint of interest.
Thus, Xu Jiaohua told Yang Wu everything he knew.
It turned out that the seven prison slave bosses had an agreement that the lower ranked ones could challenge the higher ranked ones once a month. Each time, the wager would be no less than ten thousand catties of Red Steel Ores. Whoever won would get the wager.
Black Gorilla was ranked in the seventh division, and his combat power was ranked at the bottom. However, he was not much weaker than the two prison slave bosses in the sixth and fifth divisions. He had not challenged anyone because he wanted to make sufficient preparations. He wanted to win in one battle, and he did not want to become someone's stepping stone.
Unfortunately, before he could challenge the higher ranked ones, he was killed by Yang Wu.
There were still seven days until the next challenge. As long as Yang Wu had enough strength, he could challenge the boss of the sixth division.
"Is there a limit to the wager?" Yang Wu asked.
"There is no limit, as long as the other party can take it!" Xu Jiaohua replied.
"That's good!" Yang Wu's eyes lit up. He then waved his hand and said, "You can leave now. Tell the people below that I don't have time to deal with them. I won't dig up old scores. Just hand over the Red Steel Ores on time."
"Yes, Young Master!" Xu Jiaohua and Fatty Dong replied honestly.
Fatty Dong left, but Xu Jiaohua did not. She boldly approached Yang Wu and puffed out her chest. She blushed and said coquettishly, "Young Master, if you need it, I can serve you well."
Then, Xu Jiaohua took off the simple prison clothes on her body, revealing her delicate body that had not aged yet. It was like a flower swaying in the wind. It was a different kind of charm.
Xu Jiaohua wasn't a virtuous woman to begin with. She had been sent to the mountain prison. If she didn't have some skills, she would've long been reduced to a man's plaything, just like the other female prison slaves. She had hooked up with Black Gorilla as a means of self-protection. It was better than being possessed by other weak men.
As for Yang Wu, apart from his powerful combat strength, he was also so young and handsome. Even an old woman like her liked him from the bottom of her heart. If she could be with him, it would be even more comfortable than being with Hei Gu.
Unfortunately, Yang Wu did not even look at her. He waved his hand and said, "You're old enough to be my mother. Please conduct yourself with dignity!"
Xu Jiaohua felt as if her heart had been ruthlessly pierced by a crowbar. She was so ashamed that she almost fainted.
Xu Jiaohua did not have the face to say anything more. She put on her prison clothes and quickly went down the mountain with her face covered.
When Xu Jiaohua left, Yang Wu let out a soft sigh, "There really aren't many young men with such strong willpower like this viscount!"
If anyone saw the bulging part of Yang Wu's lower body, they would probably feel embarrassed for him. He was already swollen like this, yet he still had such strong willpower. Come on.
It was not Yang Wu's fault. He was just a young and vigorous boy. He didn't know if he was still a virgin. After he had sex with Wan Lanxin that night, he still didn't know what was going on.
Compared with Wan Lanxin, Xu Jiaohua was like the earth and Wan Lanxin was like the sky. They couldn't be compared at all, so it was normal for him to have such a reaction.
Just as Yang Wu was about to get up and practice his battle skills, he glanced at a corner. His eyes twitched slightly. He did not know when, but an old prison slave had appeared not far from him.
Yang Wu's Divine Court's senses were not to be underestimated. If someone approached within a radius of a few miles, it would be difficult for them to escape his eyes and ears. But now, this old prison slave actually did not notice him within a radius of thirty feet. This really scared him.
This old prison slave was looking at Yang Wu with a smile on his face. His face was wrinkled and rough like tree bark. He bared his old yellow teeth, as if he had not washed them for many years. He held a broken bamboo fan in his hand and gently waved it, looking somewhat comical.
This was not enough to make Yang Wu feel strange. What made him feel strange was that the thick chain under the old prison slave's feet was broken. It did not look like it was broken by a sharp weapon, but by a struggle. There were uneven marks on the chain.
Little Hei, who was lying on Yang Wu's shoulder, also opened her eyes and looked at the old prison slave. Her canine eyes glowed with a dim light, but she quickly closed them again and went back to sleep.
"You are?" Yang Wu asked the old prison slave.
"I am Xun Rui, a mountain counselor!" The old prison slave replied proudly while waving his broken bamboo fan.
"Xun Rui? You seem to be fated with my Little Hei! "Yang Wu replied with a smile.
"Wrong, it's Xun from Jia Hu, Xun from Xun Long, not Xun from Xun Xuan!" The old prison slave retorted.
"It's all the same!" Yang Wu replied. Then he asked, "Do you have any business with me?"
"There are three matters. I don't know which one you want to hear first!" Xun Rui kept him in suspense.
"What's the difference between one matter and three?"
"There's a big difference. The meaning is completely different."
"Oh, then you'd better not tell me."
"Don't. This counselor knows the heavens above and the earth below. I know how to arrange military formations and strategize. There's nothing I can't do …" Xun Rui boasted.
Before he could finish, Yang Wu could not take it anymore and interrupted him, "Master Xun, you're bragging so much about yourself. Aren't you getting impatient?"
Xun Rui grinned with his old yellow teeth again and said, "Of course not. I'm telling the truth."
"Then why were you captured and sent to the mountain prison?"
"Well … Wasn't it because I presented the 24 Volumes of Governance and Salvation to the Imperial Court? It was too amazing. Some people were jealous, so I was sent here."
"I think I heard that someone presented the 24 Volumes of Misfortune to the Imperial Court ten years ago. You weren't the one who was convicted of spreading lies, were you?"
"Ahem, those treacherous officials know nothing!"
