The atmosphere in Eighth Prison had been incredibly tense lately.
Everyone in Eighth Prison trembled, afraid to speak too much.
This was because they had discovered their warden's mood had been extremely, terribly bad! So bad... it was beyond description!
He would fly into a rage at them for all sorts of trivial matters, glaring at them with a stern expression. He was like a giant ice block, as if he were about to freeze them solid!
No one in Eighth Prison dared to speak much.
Warden Ling Kuang remained silent for a moment. He looked at his subordinate and suddenly asked,
"Still no news?"
"He hasn't returned to the Yun Jing Federation yet?"
The subordinate opposite him didn't dare to look up. He knew who Warden was asking about. He was undoubtedly asking about Ji Feng—the warden wanted to know the whereabouts of that little female beast.
But...
His voice stammered.
"I—"
"I truly haven't heard any news about that little fox."
"Warden, perhaps we need to wait a little longer. Maybe he hasn't returned to the Yun Jing Federation yet..."
He had only said this much, and the warden opposite him sneered, without thinking, he directly hurled something away.
"What slow speed! Shouldn't he have arrived at the Yun Jing Federation long ago? He's not here yet. Those who know understand he's piloting a spaceship, but those who don't would think he was carrying that little one back by flying!"
"No wonder it's a low-class planet. The spaceship they're flying is tattered. What kind of dog-shit speed is this..."
The warden continued to curse.
The subordinate opposite him was sweating.
He wanted to speak, but hesitated.
Then, Ling Kuang's communicator suddenly rang.
Ling Kuang frowned. After a moment, he tapped the screen and asked,
"What is it?"
Inside the spaceship opposite, he saw Ji Feng's face.
But unlike the triumphant God of War he had imagined, Ji Feng's eyes were bloodshot, brimming with red capillaries, making him seem on the verge of collapse at any moment! Ji Feng stared fixedly at the screen.
Ji Feng looked at the screen, his bloodshot eyes making anyone who looked at them tremble. Then he said,
"I need your help!"
Ling Kuang remained unfazed. He raised an eyebrow and then asked,
"Help?"
"Help you with what?"
Ji Feng gritted his teeth.
"I want to destroy the entire Cang Hai Empire, turn them into slaves—I know the Cang Hai Empire has connections with you. I want you not to intervene, even if the council demands it, you must not step forward to defend them."
Ling Kuang chuckled. His voice sounded incredibly pleased.
"Not intervene?"
"That can be arranged."
"You want to destroy the entire Cang Hai Empire? Go ahead. The council cannot dictate to me. However, I have one condition: you send that female beast back."
"As long as you are willing to send that female beast back, even if you slaughter the entire Cang Hai Empire, I will not interfere in the slightest."
"Furthermore, with you fighting the Cang Hai Empire, your location is not safe. It would be better to leave that little beast with me for a while."
And as for whether he would send the little beast back after a while, wouldn't that be up to him to decide? Thinking this, Warden Ling Kuang of Eighth Prison immediately calmed down, thinking it wouldn't be bad to have that little girl serve as a menial maid.
But what he never expected was that the man before him managed a strained smile, the red capillaries in his eyes making his handsome face appear even more ferocious!
"Do you think—"
"Why am I destroying the entire Cang Hai Empire!"
"She's gone!"
"A prince of the Cang Hai Empire impersonated pirates and attacked my spaceship. He abducted my Nan Nan, my treasure. My treasure was sucked into a black hole, her life and death are unknown..."
"Those bastards of the Cang Hai Empire, I will kill them!"
His eyes were red, and his voice was almost choked with blood.
Upon hearing the man speak like this, Ling Kuang was stunned for three seconds before he reacted.
"Wait a moment..."
"What did you say?"
"What do you mean those bastards of the Cang Hai Empire attacked your spaceship..."
"She... she's gone?"
"Sucked into a black hole?"
Even for the calm and rational Ling Kuang, it took a while to understand the meaning of these words. His expression suddenly changed. He frowned, his voice becoming sharp.
"Is this true?"
"A prince of the Cang Hai Empire..."
He couldn't describe what he was feeling. It was as if his heart had skipped a beat, and his entire heart was clutched tightly. He bit his lip, his eyes filled with cold ferocity!
"A prince of the Cang Hai Empire actually dares to do something so audacious?"
"A black hole..."
"Why didn't you save her?"
"Didn't you say you were her father? Why couldn't you protect her?"
Ling Kuang himself wanted to ask why he hadn't protected her.
He gave a bitter smile, the bitterness in his eyes lingering. He wished he could kill himself, but if he died, who would look for his daughter?
"I can't find her anymore..."
His voice was almost choked with sobs, but he was, after all, the Marshal of the Yun Jing Federation, a top powerhouse who had pushed the entire Cang Hai Empire back. Ji Feng calmed down and then said,
"I want to annihilate the people of the Cang Hai Empire!"
Ling Kuang on the opposite side clenched his fist.
He hadn't expected it to turn out this way—that little beast, that silver-white little fox, was gone like this?
His mood was extremely complicated. His heart was filled with a thousand emotions, a torrent of feelings surging, leaving him momentarily confused.
That fluffy, tiny fox, who transformed into a stunningly beautiful maiden, still retained her innocent and pure eyes. When she looked at him, it even made his heart flutter.
That gaze.
It had amazed him.
If he had known...
If he had known she could turn into such a lovely girl, he would never have been so disingenuous.
But now, regret seemed too late.
Ling Kuang narrowed his eyes and asked,
"Those sons of bitches from the Cang Hai Empire, can you defeat them?"
"If you can't win, I'll help you, how about that?"
His tone was filled with intense anger and a trace of regret. That regret was not obvious at first, but it gnawed at his heart like a venomous snake, causing sharp pain.
Would he never see that little female beast again?
This damned Cang Hai Empire, these lunatics, these scoundrels, these bastards, he would make them pay the price!
