Chapter 288: Unexpected Encounter(s)

“….” Fang Yu stared blankly at the walls of the room she was in. After her surrender, she was immediately handcuffed with soul shackles, which supposedly can suppress the abilities of a soul fighter.

Unsurprisingly, Fang Yu was not affected by it, given her special abilities.

With the clear evidence of Fang Yu killing ‘Shax’ seen by the guards, there was no need to put her in trial. She was immediately thrown to the Rock Heights Prison, where the most notorious criminals were put in.

With her divine sense, Fang Yu saw that the whole Rock Heights Prison was an extremely large rock, with holes carved on it. Each hole has the function to contain one prisoner.

The durability of the rock was so great that there was no way for a prisoner to dig himself out. There were larger holes inside the rock, which serves as the other areas like the visiting quarters, or the combat area.

But what made Fang Yu delighted was the fact that most of the prisoners here were actually former Soul Fighters!

“Hehehe, so my bet has all paid off….” Fang Yu muttered to herself as she observed her room. “Now, I can enact the next part of my plan.”

“Weng.”

Fang Yu activated her Glaistig Form, making her whole body to become the Glaistig. But instead of the half-woman half-goat form, Fang Yu made herself look like the Soul King that she used earlier.

With that kind of transformation, anyone who sees Fang Yu right now will think that she had achieved the highest state that a soul fighter can reach, the perfect fusion between the soul fighter and the soul avatar!

With her interactions with Wang Hao, Fang Yu was able to learn some things about human behavior. One such lesson was the fact that if you offer a desperate person a way to escape his/her plight, that person will accept that no matter how bad it was, as long as it can help him/her.

“Schwing.” At her Glaistig form, Fang Yu was able to pass through the walls easily. Because passing through these walls will just give a negligible damage output, Fang Yu can maintain her current state for a longer period of time.

“Look! Someone’s passing through the walls!” In no time at all, most of the prisoners heard what Fang Yu was doing, as they peeked out of the bars of their cells.

There, they saw Fang Yu in her ‘Soul King Fusion Form’ floating effortlessly towards the main hall in the prison.

“That’s a Perfect Soul Fusion! How can he do that!” Most of the prisoners were able to recognize Fang Yu’s state. Their mouths dropped as they followed her movements.

“That guy was still shackled by the Soul Shackles! How can he manage to even fuse with his soul avatar?”

Even the most hardened of the prisoners were unable to ignore her as they looked with glints on their eyes.

“You scum! Stop right there!” Right on cue, most of the prison guards rushed towards Fang Yu when they heard what she was doing.

“Go back to your cell, or else we will-”

“Or else what” Fang Yu replied coldly. “You will beat me down?”

“Hell yeah of course!” The guards’ bodies glowed as multiple soul avatars appeared behind them. Unsurprisingly, they were all soul fighters too.

These soul avatars rushed towards Fang Yu, intending to cut her down.

“Bothersome.” Fang Yu said as she stared at the incoming soul avatars.

“Huuuummm…”

All the soul avatars then dropped on the ground, as if they found it hard to move at all. Some of the soul avatars were even prostrating in front of Fang Yu.

“What the hell did you do?” One of the guards asked in panic. Even the prisoners were horrified by what they saw as they all gulped, excited to see what happens next.

Fang Yu just used her Glaistig Form to make these soul avatars afraid and unable to move. Some of them prostrating was no surprise to her at all.

As for stealing these soul avatars, Fang Yu will not do that for now.

She still had to do something else.

The cruelty that she witnessed in the coliseum made Fang Yu realize about some things that she needed to do besides fighting Solomon.

“Why do you ask? It’s because I am the Soul King….” Fang Yu said as she tried to make her voice sound mystical.

“I am here to help my brethren, who all suffered under this society’s cruel hands!”

“What???”

***********

“Fang Lin, what is that thing on your back?” Wang Hao asked as he looked behind Fang Lin.

Just behind Fang Lin was a baby with lightning bolts covering its body. This was the same soul avatar that Fang Yu used in her fight with the fake Shax earlier.

“Ah this?” Fang Lin said as he petted the lightning baby. The baby giggled in delight as it continuously sparked lightning bolts at Fang Lin.

“Do you think I will still what this is to you? In case you forgot, we will break ties after your trial, so I think there is no need for you to know.” Fang Lin replied coldly as he continued petting the lightning baby.

“Ah, if Tang Li can just be as behaved as this lightning baby… Ah, how about I give this lightning baby a name? Hmmmm…. Let’s call you Thor…. no, that’s so cliché already. Zeus? Nah that’s a playboy name.” Fang Lin cupped his chin as he ignored Wang Hao.

“Ok, how about Bolt?”

“Buuba!” The lightning baby giggled as it clapped its hands happily. It seemed to like the name Bolt.

Fang Lin then sighed as he realized that he was now treating Bolt the same way that he did to Tang Li.

“Ok Bolt, remember that you have an elder sister ok? Her name is Tang Li, and she’s a very naughty sister! If you can stop her naughty deeds, big bro Fang Lin will reward you ok?”

“Buuba buuba!” Bolt nodded as he seemingly understood what Fang Lin said.

“….” Upon seeing the refusal of Fang Lin to talk to him, Wang Hao sighed as he closed his eyes. But he found it hard to do so, with the current place that they were in right now.

“Ugh…” Wang Hao groaned as he clapped his hands over his mouth. He was currently restraining the urge to vomit everything that he ate that day.

Fang Lin sneered a little upon seeing this as he said,

“What is it Wang Hao? How come one of the strongest practitioners in the whole Universe can actually get seasick?”

“Shut up! Why did you even propose us to go by the sea anyway?” Wang Hao replied as his face started to turn sickly green. “If we just teleported right at the edge….”

“You know that won’t work Wang Hao.” Fang Lin replied tersely. “We agreed to make our travel to the God Continent in the most mundane way, hence riding this ship.”

After they concocted their plan earlier, Wang Hao and Fang Lin wasted no time as they donned another set of disguise and rode a merchant ship that will head towards the God Continent.

Even with the heated state of war, the merchant ships were unafraid to start trading with both the continents. After all, only through risks that one can earn money.

The identity that Fang Lin and Wang Hao had were budding merchants who wanted to try their luck on their first transaction.

Right now, Fang Lin and Wang Hao both looked like middle-aged, bearded men. One look at them, and one will think that they really are novice merchants.

“I hate this, ugh!” Wang Hao wasted no time as he left the stern of the ship as he rushed inside it. No doubt he’s going to the comfort room to relieve his sufferings.

“Fizz.” Bolt disappeared as Fang Lin felt some people getting out of the ship. Seeing a baby covered in lighting was not a great sight after all.

“….” Fang Lin ignored Wang Hao’s plights as he stared at the raging seas that the ship crossed. It will take a day yet before this ship can reach the God Continent.

While he was busy counting the amount of fish that was thrown out by the waves, Fang Hao felt a tap on his shoulders. Fang Lin looked back, and what he saw made his eyes widen by just a fraction. A moment later, and he was able to make his expression composed.

He saw a man with two girls beside him. The man smiled as he talked to the disguised Fang Lin.

“You seem to be liking this view here Mr. Merchant. You must love travelling then huh.”

“Yeah I love travelling.” Fang Lin replied with his current gruff voice.

Right now, Fang Lin was fighting the urge to reveal his identity and kill this man on the spot. After all, Fang Lin will not be able to forget who this man was and the two girls with him.

This man was Lin Xiang, and the two girls with him were Tao’er and Yue’er.

This Lin Xiang was the one who killed Venomshade!

“This f**ker!” Fang Lin thought as he saw that same cocky smile that Lin Xiang had after he killed Venomshade.

Fang Lin was about to be consumed by his anger, when he saw something that made his rage cool off.

Right behind Lin Xiang was a lonely-looking woman. She seemed to be out of it as she walked slowly towards them.

Even if Fang Lin was unable to see this woman for more than a year, he can still remember who she was.

This woman was Feng Ling’er, the one who found him and Wang Hao in the Mystical Forest!

“What the hell are they doing here?” Fang Lin thought to himself as he looked behind Feng Ling’er.

His jaw then almost dropped as he saw that behind Feng Ling’er was another trio.

It was a man with two women beside him.

Fang Lin had the urge to rub his eyes as he saw that this trio was Fang Xiushang together with his lovers, Rou’er and Xu’er!

“Why the hell are they all here?” Fang Lin thought sadly to himself. “It seems like our infiltration mission will be extremely difficult!”
