Chapter 72.2 The Second Senior Apprentice Felt Touched (2/2)
“Oh? Okay!” Wang Ke felt surprised.
After digging for two more hours—
“Bamm!”
Wang Ke finally dug through and saw a prison cell. The righteous disciples within looked at the big hole on the wall, truly astonished.
What happened?
A prisoner said with a fearful face, “That’s our second senior apprentice’s cell; he was fasting to seek his death. Could it be… Could it be that he died?”
And then, Wang Ke came out from that hole.
“Demon, you drank our senior’s blood dry! You consumed him!” The Heavenly Wolf Sect’s disciples glared at Wang Ke.
“I’m not dead! Which one of you has spirit stones? Throw one of them over!” The second senior apprentice’s voice came from the other side.
All the prisoners, “…………………!”
Is it a hallucination?Our senior brother is still alive?Wasn’t he dead set on a hunger strike?Why then does he want spirit stones?Impossible!
The prisoners had spirit stones because the demons hoped to feed their prisoners well to farm their blood. That was why they were never stingy when providing them with spirit stones and food.
“Does anyone have anything to eat? Throw it over too!” shouted the second senior apprentice.
The other prisoners, “………………………!”
Wang Ke had no time to talk to the prisoners. He ran to the side of the cell and slashed open the lock with his flying sword before walking out.
At that moment—all the demons at the prison’s main square stopped their Mahjong games. They surrounded the Ten-thousand Serpent Pool and pointed at its center; they seemed to be watching something unfold.
“Hmm? What’s happening?” Wang Ke walked over curiously.
“Quick, look! Someone fell from the mountain and landed right at the center of the Ten-thousand Serpent Pool!”
“It looked like a child! Whose child fell into the pool? He will die!”
“The child is still calling for help!”
“Is that the voice of the Sacred Child?”
“Bulls**t. Who do you think the Sacred Child is? There’s no way he would fall into the Ten-thousand Serpent Pool!”
“Oh no. No one would ever dare jump down into the pool! Whoever is bitten by the snakes will be a goner!”
“He’s dead! That kid will die for sure!”

All the surrounding demons sighed, feeling helpless. After all, there was a spell array in the Ten-thousand Serpent Pool, one that not only trapped the snakes, but also suppressed the cultivation of any person within. Anyone below the Astral Infant stage would become like an ordinary person inside the pool, while being attacked by the snakes.
So, who was willing to go down? No one was!
Wang Ke pushed the crowd aside and walked to the front, looking curiously into the distance.
Dawn was approaching at that time.
In a great hall on the Divine Dragon Island—Tong An’an was eagerly waiting for something to happen. He was still holding a cup of blood essence.
“Chapter Lord, rest assured. Wang Ke would surely lack an alibi now. No one will be able to help him prove he’s unrelated to the Sacred Child’s death!” Northern Gambling God said in excitement.
“Make sure there are no more disruptions!” Tong An’an said solemnly.
“There won’t be any,” the Northern Gambling God laughed and said, “Wang Ke should be enjoying his demonization process. I locked the prison cell he’s in. I even sealed it with a spell; he won’t be able to open the door. Besides, I will be alerted the moment he touches the door. There aren’t any alerts so far, which means that he has yet to touch the door. I’m sure he’s enjoying that prisoner to the fullest. Haha, I bet he has no idea we’re framing him!”
“Are you sure he won’t get out?”
“I’m sure. I will know if he ever touches the door handle. I’m very sure he’s still inside the cell!” Northern Gambling God said confidently.
“That’s good!” Tong An’an felt satisfied.
“Oh right. Has the Sacred Child’s face been covered?” Northern Gambling God asked, feeling concerned.
“Don’t worry. We masked him before throwing him into the pool! His weak cultivation cannot protect him from dying there! The cloth used to mask his face is made with a special material that will melt and disappear. When dawn breaks, everyone will know of the Sacred Child’s death. And then…!” Tong An’an said with narrowed eyes.
“And then, our Chapter Lord will personally apprehend Wang Ke, to later make him spit out all the money and blood essence he won these days. We will also frame him for killing the Sacred Child; the Chapter Lord will then have the chance to kill Wang Ke, to avenge the Sacred Child’s death!” said the excited gambler.
“Hahahahaha!” Tong An’an burst out laughing.
“The Sacred Child will be bitten to death while seen by plenty of people. No one will dare to rescue him from the Ten-thousand Serpent Pool. The child will surely die, and so will Wang Ke!” Northern Gambling God cackled.
“Hahahaha!”

At the Divine Dragon Island’s prison complex—
Just like the rest, Zhu Yan already knew that someone had fallen into the Ten-thousand Serpent Pool and was crying for help. Still, no one had dared to go down and rescue him.
You must be joking!That’s the Ten-thousand Serpent Pool! Going down there means death!Whose negligence caused this child to fall down? Serves him right!
Zhu Yan took a final glance before looking away. But then he saw Wang Ke strolling toward him.
He was very unhappy to see Wang Ke. He finished enjoying his night?
We are both prisoners. Why is your life so enriching, and mine so miserable?
Zhu Yan hid among the crowd, away from Wang Ke’s sight.
Wang Ke seemed to be attracted by what everyone was watching. He weaved through the crowd and walked to the front.
Once he reached the edge of the pool, Wang Ke looked over at the child crying for help, and he frowned in suspicion.
Hmm? What’s happening? Why is everyone gathered here? Someone fell into the Ten-thousand Serpent Pool? Wang Ke looked in curiously.
Little did he know that right behind him—the insanely envious Zhu Yan raised his leg with a savage face.
Die! Zhu Yan roared in his heart.
“Baaam!”
Zhu Yan kicked Wang Ke, making him fall into the Ten-thousand Serpent Pool.
“Ahhh!”
Wang Ke let out a shocking cry. Damn it! Never did I expect to be kicked into pool like this!
Was it because of the demons?Are they the ones who schemed against me?Was it Tong An’an?Or Northern Gambling God?They wanted me to die in the Ten-thousand Serpent Pool?
“Splash!”
Wang Ke landed inside the pool.
Zhu Yan hid among the crowd with a sinister smile. Wang Ke, you bastard! Die!
“Wahh! Someone jumped into the pool to rescue that child?” someone shouted.
