An Jing changed into a loose-fitting forest green night cloak and entered Yuzhou City’s dungeon.

Most people might not be familiar with Yuzhou City’s prison, but An Jing knew a little about it.

If the prisoners in the prison fell ill, they would need timely treatment. The person in charge of this was Head Constable Qin from the Ministry of Justice. Because An Jing had once helped the Sima prison, and his medical skills were rather famous in Yuzhou City, Head Constable Qin would always go to the Ji Shi Hall to ask An Jing to treat these prisoners.

After a while, An Jing was familiar with Yuzhou City’s prison.

Someone who could deduce the secrets of heaven was definitely extraordinary. There was a 90% chance that he was imprisoned on the second floor of the dungeon, which was also where the Heaven-class prisoners were imprisoned.

Yuzhou City’s number one prisoner was equivalent to a prisoner in the Jade Capital’s Heavenly Prison.

It was said that there were eighteen levels of prison in Jade Capital. There were criminals from the Imperial Court, devils from the martial world, and huge businessmen locked up in the prison. Being able to be imprisoned in the prison was enough to prove that their identities were extraordinary. They were all criminals who were personally imprisoned by the Emperor Swallow.

As for the number one prisoner in Yuzhou City, one could imagine his identity.

However, An Jing even suspected that there might be Heaven-class prisoners on the second floor. Could there be such a figure in Yuzhou City?

If the instructions on the Earth Book were true, then it was definitely from the second floor.

“There should be quite a number of experts on this second floor.”

An Jing slipped into the second floor and became cautious. He took out half a stick of Bewitching Fragrance from his waist.

This Bewitching Fragrance was specially made by him. In the original Bewitching Fragrance, he had added the Mandara Flower, Rhododendron molle, and other materials to refine it. As long as one inhaled this special Bewitching Fragrance, experts below the Rank Five would instantly faint.

“Sigh.”

An Jing gently blew the incense, and the elegant fragrance spread throughout the entire second floor of the dungeon.

Not long after, the sound of someone falling to the ground could be heard.

“Next is the hidden sentry of the dungeon.”

An Jing crushed the burning incense into powder before striding into the depths of the dungeon’s second level.

There were hidden sentries in the dungeon. With An Jing’s strength, it was not difficult for him to avoid these hidden sentries.

This special fragrance was very strong, and some of the felons on the second floor of the dungeon were also knocked unconscious. Only a few people whose cultivation had reached Rank Five and above still had a trace of consciousness.

“Could it be that an expert has come to break into the prison!?”

Some people saw a black shadow flash past and were greatly shocked, thinking that they were seeing things.

“The Earth Book’s reaction is getting stronger. It seems like that person is inside.”

The next moment, An Jing arrived at the door of a cell. The Earth Book kept flashing in his mind.

As long as he got close to the opportunity, the Earth Book would constantly give him hints.

Looking through the crack, he saw that the iron chains in the cell were coiled like dragons, and in the center stood a person with disheveled hair.

Could it be this person?

“Cao Anmin, you’ve used these tricks a few times. Do you still want to use them?”

Jiang Sanjia looked up with a cold smile.

An Jing raised his brows and said, “I didn’t know that you and Magistrate Cao were like flies and dogs, but from the looks of it, you’re the person I’m looking for.”

He knew Cao Anmin, the Yuzhou magistrate.

However, An Jing did not have a good impression of the magistrate of Yuzhou City. Everyone knew that Cao Anmin was a huge businessman, but he seemed to have someone backing him up.

“Who are you? I don’t even know you.” Jiang Sanjia raised his head and said coldly.

“Now we know each other.”

As he spoke, An Jing placed his palm on the prison door.

‘Could this person be here to break into the prison?!’

‘He’s here to save me!?’

Jiang Sanjia was greatly shaken. Even though he had all sorts of doubts in his heart, in front of him was his only chance of survival.

“This is Yuzhou City’s prison!” Even though Jiang Sanjia was extremely excited, he still spoke in a low voice.

“You should be from the Phantom Valley Sect, right?” An Jing asked with a faint smile.

“I am Jiang Sanjia of the Phantom Valley Sect.” Jiang Sanjia felt a bit strange. This person in front of him did not know his identity?

So it was that Divine Foresight from the martial world. It seemed that his opportunity lay with him.

An Jing was shocked.

The name Divine Foresight was quite famous in the martial world. He was from the Phantom Valley Sect, and he was proficient in the art of foresight, divination, and other knowledge of the Phantom Valley. He was able to see through all things and peer into the secrets of heaven. It was rumored that he was previously appointed as the Great Yanqin Heaven Supervisor, but for some unknown reason, he resigned from his post and entered the martial world.

As soon as this person entered the martial world, he relied on the inheritor of the Phantom Valley and his fortune-telling skills to make a name for himself. Two years ago, for some reason, he disappeared. It turned out that he was imprisoned in Yuzhou City’s dungeon.

An Jing was not interested in why the Divine Foresight was imprisoned in the dungeon. “Hand over the Bodhi Bead and I can save you.”

Jiang Sanjia came to a realization. So this person was here for the Bodhi Bead.

The Bodhi Bead was a supreme treasure of Buddhism and the Bodhi Bead was originally a consecrated treasure of Western Region’s Leiyin Monastery. It was placed in the main hall and worshiped by all the people, enjoying thousands of years of incense offerings.

However, a few years ago, the Bishop of Leiyin Monastery was instigated by the Demon Sect’s Ghost-Faced Buddhas. He brought the Bodhi Bead and wanted to betray Leiyin Monastery. In the end, he was surrounded by several experts of the Western Region and was killed in the Western Region’s Heaven Stone Cave. As for the Bodhi Bead, its whereabouts were unknown.

Not only did the Bodhi Bead contain the power of Buddhism’s incense, it also contained thousands of years of Buddhism aura. It was a rare treasure.

Jiang Sanjia said in a deep voice, “I don’t know about the Bodhi Bead you’re talking about. Please change your condition.”

“Then there’s nothing to say.”

An Jing waved his hand unhappily. He had come here for the yellow opportunity Bodhi Bead. If he could not obtain it, he would not have the time to waste.

An Jing’s steps were steady, and he did not stop in the slightest. He was not prepared to bargain at all.

“Wait… wait a minute.”

Jiang Sanjia saw that An Jing was acting out of the ordinary and hurriedly shouted.

An Jing stopped in his tracks.

Jiang Sanjia took a deep breath and said, “Although I don’t have the Bodhi Bead, I know its whereabouts and it’s easy to find.”

“Tell me,” said An Jing.

“May I know your name?” Jiang Sanjia asked after a moment of silence.

“Zhou Xianming,” said An Jing.

Jiang Sanjia raised his eyebrows slightly but did not speak.

“Why? You don’t believe me?” An Jing asked lazily.

“I believe so.”

Jiang Sanjia sighed and said, “I have to believe whatever you say.”

“Alright, tell me where the Bodhi Bead is. I’m in a hurry.”

“No, you have to get me out first.”

“Impossible. What would I do if I got you out and you lied to me?”

“If I tell you and you leave, wouldn’t I be wasting my efforts?”

“I can swear.”

An Jing stretched out three fingers and said confidently.

“Oaths don’t work on people like you,” Jiang Sanjia said faintly.

An Jing’s expression darkened, but that was what he had in mind. As long as this old man told him the whereabouts of the Bodhi Bead, he felt that it was absolutely true that he would leave immediately. Saving this person might very well cause a lot of trouble.

He was most afraid of getting into trouble.

Moreover, he simply did not believe this Jiang Sanjia in front of him, even if he was the successor of the Phantom Valley.

Jiang Sanjia naturally had his own plans as well. The Bodhi Bead was originally a treasure for him to recover his vitality. If he told this person, he would be heavily injured when he went out and might be captured again.

Originally, he had left behind a secret technique. As long as the chains on his body loosened and the prison door opened, he would immediately slip away. He would then use the Bodhi Bead to recover from his injuries. Yet now, it seemed that the person opposite him would not fall into his trap.

Both of them had their own ulterior motives and schemed against each other. For a moment, neither of them spoke.

“Then how would I get you to trust me?” Jiang Sanjia was the first to break the silence.

Now, he could only make this person believe him. After all, he was his only chance of survival.

An Jing pondered for a moment before saying, “If you say that the people of Yan Country don’t lie to their own people, I’ll believe you.”

“I’m the successor of the Phantom Valley, Jiang Sanjia. How could I lie to you?” Jiang Sanjia frowned as he spoke.

“Then tell me that the people of Yan Country don’t lie to their own people.”

“If you’re worried, you can go to the martial arts world and ask about my character.”

“Then tell me.” An Jing sneered. “The people of Yan Country don’t lie to their own people.”

Jiang Sanjia was speechless..
