“Meanwhile, at the same time, a wisp of dark clouds dispersed. In the northern part of the Independent Province, on an almost isolated small island, it stood silently, resembling a towering beast, devouring all living beings in its path. The roaring sound of the wind-beast’s howl was chilling.
Upon the enormous island, vast and boundless, there were numerous intertwining dirt paths. In the center was a massive prison, surrounded by specially crafted iron bars, preventing anyone from entering or leaving.
At this moment, a young man held a hoe, digging at the soil on the outside, seemingly attempting to dig a path through the prison walls with his own strength.
“Hahaha, kid, you haven’t been here for long. Give it some time, and you’ll get used to it.”
“That’s right. If digging like you could get us out, we would’ve left long ago. No need to wait till now.”
Beside him, several middle-aged men looked at the young man and sighed helplessly.
Hearing this, the young man despondently slammed the hoe into the ground.
“What’s your name, kid?”
The lead middle-aged man asked.
The young man remained silent for a moment before slowly lifting his head. “Sixa.”
“Sixa?”
Hearing this, the men exchanged glances, a surname Sixa…
“Could it be that you’re from the Sifamily?!”
Throughout the Independent Province, there was only the Sifamily with that surname.
“Heh, what am I to the Sifamily.”
A faint bitter smile curved on Sixa’s lips.
“Sixa, brother, what’s going on? How did you end up here?”
The middle-aged leader turned his gaze to Sixa, his brows slightly furrowed.
This place was a land of despair.
People believed that within the Martial Union Guild, there was an underground prison, the final level of which held the most wicked and powerful criminals. However… this place was actually the most terrifying place of confinement within the Martial Union Guild.
“My father’s name in the Independent Province should be Sihatian.”
After a moment, Sixa spoke.
“Sihatian? Isn’t that the infamous traitor from the Sifamily… You’re his son?”
Several middle-aged men looked surprised.
Sihatian had a certain level of notoriety in the Independent Province, especially after being expelled from the Sifamily; his reputation had grown even larger.
But in recent years, Sihatian seemed to have vanished from the Independent Province, disappearing without a trace.
“Originally, I came to the Independent Province to find my father. I followed the clues to the Sifamily, but they said I’m the son of a criminal and had the Martial Union Guild capture me and bring me to this damned place.” Cold light flickered in Sixa’s eyes.
After learning the circumstances, the middle-aged men sighed. If it was indeed like this, the fact that the Sifamily hadn’t executed Sixa on the spot was fortunate enough. There wasn’t much to complain about.
…
At this moment, the entire island was abuzz with voices.
News spread that they had seen Jixiuran and Ji Huang on the island.
“Even Ji Huang has been brought to this place? How is that possible!”
“I can’t believe it. Even someone like Jixiuran…”
“It’s not just Ji Huang; there’s also the leader of the Tianxiao, Haitang!”
“Tianxiao?! The big brother of the Fearless Alliance?! Haitang has been captured too…”
“One Ji Huang, one Tianxiao… These two major forces are at the pinnacle of the Independent Province. How could this happen!”
“Heh, it seems like the Independent Province is truly going to undergo a change.”
…
In a dilapidated, slightly dark cage emitting a musty smell, a man with a handsome face had a pale complexion.
A woman stared at the man, her brow Avray furrowed.”
