The sound of the door opening was not loud, but it was still extremely clear to the Beast King. This was not the time to drink medicine, so the original shouting and cursing stopped.

Then came a more vicious curse: "Krolin, what's the matter? Why are you coming here at this hour? What new way have you thought of to torture us?"

"You are despicable! Betrayer, God will not let you go!"

When Krollin entered, the dungeon would be lit up, but his disabled servant never turned on the lights when he came in.

"Krolin! What on earth do you want to do..."

The voice of the curse was interrupted before it could finish.

"I'm not him." There was a hint of anger in his indifference.

These were not done by his brother at all. His brother was also a victim. Why should he bear all these insults!

The voice was completely different from Crolin's. Tiancan Servant had never spoken to them before. Of course, he couldn't speak even if he wanted to. Was this a new person being brought in to torture them?

But is this tone directed towards the master?

Shouldn't Cronin's lackey speak up to defend him?

Cedric, who was resting with his eyes closed, heard the voice and called out a name with certainty: "Chris."

After all, they have been together for such a long time, how could he not recognize that it was Chris's voice?

Chris did not answer him. The dark dungeon suddenly became quiet. If you listened carefully, you could hear the sound of dripping water.

The drainage system of the City of Light is considered good, but the continuous rain day and night still makes the temple very damp.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Cedric continued to ask: "Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to leave? Do you know..."

"She is very worried about you." The indifferent voice was mixed with a hint of jealousy.

Su Tang's concern for Cedric somewhat goes beyond the boundaries of comradeship and companionship.

And Cedric was overprotective of him. It was not difficult to guess who gave Su Tang the authority to bring them into the city.

If some of this original power were to be extracted and transferred to others, the mildest consequence would be that the heart meridians of the victim would be severed, the victim would lose power, and their strength would drop sharply, while the worst would be that of a sudden death on the spot.

This kind of power is not something that can be given just because you want it.

Cedric not only gave, he gave more than a little.

It's really amazing that he can be safe and sound like this. Chris curled his lips and mocked. How could a person who is regarded as the son of light by the world also fall from the altar?

His face suddenly changed. Why did he think so? Could it be that the aunt was right?

After hearing what Chris said, Cedric fell into a brief silence. It seemed like something was stuck in his throat. He was too dry to speak, and his heart ached.

After a long while, he finally said in a hoarse voice: "Is she... okay?"

"What do you think?" Chris' tone was extremely unfriendly. A veteran actually asked Su Tang, a weak female, to do such a dangerous thing. Is he still a male?

"I wouldn't let my partner do something like that!"

The tone was just like that of a wicked mother-in-law making things difficult for her daughter-in-law, mean and sarcastic, and I didn't know if it was because of jealousy, but the words were even more vicious and cunning.

"A person like you is worthy of her concern? Why do you think you deserve that? Are you so great as an elder? You are still locked up here like a prisoner. No one will care when you die here!"

Now, this one sentence has dealt a heavy blow to all the locked-up veterans.

The Leopard King had a bad temper and just as he was about to start a fight, he heard the sound of the door opening.

Two words came to everyone's mind.

Finished!

Someone finally came to rescue them, but now he’s locked up with them just after coming in?

Chris's originally calm heart began to beat like a drum. Is he finished?

What would Pathak do to him? Kill him? Or imprison him like this?

"Don't panic. Come in right now, cut my wrists, hold my blood in your mouth, and silently recite the mantra I told you. He won't find you."

Cedric immediately came up with a solution, but his strength was limited now, and he didn't know if the effect would be as strong as before.

"Hurry!" he urged.

Chris didn't think much about it. He opened the cell door and walked in. He quickly cut a cut on Cedric's wrist and took a mouthful of his blood.

The two were close to each other, and Cedric lowered his head and recited a mantra in his ear, not forgetting to remind him: "You must have no distractions, recite with all your heart, and then stand in the shadows, the darkness will protect you."

He spoke cryptically and in a low voice. Everyone's attention was on the person who was about to come in. They didn't know whether Cedric's method would work or not. Their hearts were in their throats, so they had no mood to listen to his mosquito-like words.

Chris wrote down what he said. Although he had guessed it a long time ago, he still couldn't help but feel shocked when Cedric said it himself. Could the elder of the temple be a member of the dirty-blood race?

This chant is not the power of light.

How did he do it?

How could such a person enter and leave the temple safely?

However, the current situation did not allow him to think too much. Chris immediately calmed down and silently recited the mantra that Cedric told him. After all, he had lived for hundreds of years, so he still had the psychological strength to withstand such a critical moment.

The black figure who took over Krollin's body, Pasak in the eyes of Chris and Cedric, was actually Jonal's soul. He walked slowly in with light steps, just like taking a stroll in the courtyard.

It doesn't look like they are here to check on prisoners or catch naughty bugs.

White light illuminated the room. He did not bring any attendants with him. He held a night-light lamp in his hand and was in the mood to argue with the Leopard King: "Hey, what's wrong? Why don't you continue to bark today? You always welcomed me especially when I came before!"

Krollin had a playful expression on his face, and the Leopard King couldn't stand it anymore, so he sang another piece of traditional Chinese quintessence, but then Krollin changed the subject.

He frowned and said in distress: "A bug has entered the temple. I asked people to search everywhere but couldn't find it. Could it be that it is here to look for you?"

He asked himself and answered: "Judging from your expression, it should be."

The Leopard King's expression was distorted: "Madman! Go to hell! What the hell is this! It's a thing without a handle!"

"Don't worry, I will catch him soon, and then chop him into pieces right in front of you. Wolf meat should taste good, and it will be a bargain for you!"

The tone was relaxed, but the words uttered were chilling. As elders, they were also ruthless people with some means, but compared with Krollin, they seemed insignificant.

"Are you crazy? He's your own brother, born of the same mother. Blood is thicker than water! How could you do such a thing? Aren't you afraid of being thrown into the prison of fire forever?"

Crolin sneered and did not respond to his words: "It seems that you really came here."

It is certain that what he said just now was a lie to them!

How could this person be so treacherous!

Without looking at him anymore, Crolin held the lamp and passed through the cells one by one. His originally happy mood of hunting prey became dull after he examined all the cells.

Not here?

He turned around again and finally stopped at the door of Cedric's cell. Next to him was Yuk. After hearing no movement for a long time, Yuk was so worried that he almost blew himself up and caused a fire.

Krollin looked at Cedric who was imprisoned in the cell. His eyes were fixed on where Chris was standing. Chris was so frightened that he almost lost his mind and stopped reciting.

After watching for a while, he turned his gaze to Cedric's wrist, where there was a sharp blood mark.

"I didn't realize you're quite aggressive. Do you think you can break the chain like this?"

He was talking about the place where Chris had cut it just now. It was very close to the handcuffs, so it was normal to be misunderstood as a sign of struggle. After all, even if the Beast King's strength was sealed, his physical fitness was still extremely strong. The fact that it hadn't healed for such a long time showed how hard he had struggled.

"Don't resist in vain. This thing cannot be destroyed by external forces."

As if mocking his arrogance, Chris glanced at him with contempt and turned away.

It seems that Chris hasn't come here yet, so what does he want to do by stealing the dungeon key?

Since no one was there, he had no intention of staying long to greet them and left quickly.

The door closed and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
