Fan Xian, the leader of the Imperial Guard, continued, "Most of the criminals who come to the Eighteen Layers of Hell actually deserve their punishment. Whether they're imprisoned for losing a scheming power struggle, or they're demons with countless blood on their hands, none of them are wrongfully imprisoned. Even if there are, they're only minor injustices."
"Only our Invincible General, so loyal to his country, met such a fate. It truly is an injustice that shakes the heavens, like snow falling in June! It truly is a death in vain! Therefore, upon arriving at this eleventh floor, our Invincible General felt a connection with the City of the Dead, which had been sealed for countless years!"
"On the surface, these Eighteen Levels of Hell offer no benefits, but rather various dangers, and are often abandoned by people. But in reality, they hold hidden secrets and numerous opportunities. Only those who are particularly suited to them will have the opportunity to encounter these hidden inheritances!"
"For example, the false Four Heavenly Kings within the City of the Dead correspond precisely to greed, anger, ignorance, and hatred, the four grievances of the true Four Heavenly Kings before they became gods. These four individuals perfectly matched these traits, and thus inherited the four great inheritances of the Demon Clan left behind by the true Four Heavenly Kings before they became gods! They instantly became the four strongest individuals on the eleventh floor! If it weren't for the arrival of our city lord, the eleventh floor would still be theirs!"
"And our Invincible General successfully inherited the legacy of the City of the Dead, restoring it to hell! In this dark and gloomy eleventh layer, he has created a safe haven for criminals like us! He has saved us from suffering the punishment of the Five Elements and the torment of ghosts! Otherwise, I wonder how many poor souls would have died tragically under that cruel punishment!"
When Fan Xian said this, he was full of admiration for the city lord.
"It's not as great as people say. At least we still have to pay one piece of obsidian a day, and the total amount is an astronomical figure." Jiang Fan was still upset about being asked to pay the obsidian.
After all, he was the one who always took the obsidian from other people's pockets.
This was the first time someone had taken obsidian from Jiang Fan's pocket to pay for the City of the Dead!
Although, there are only two pieces.
But no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat, and it is enough for Jiang Fan to think about it for two months!
"That's because most of the people here aren't good people, so they shouldn't be given shelter for nothing!"
"Originally, the City of the Wrongly Dead only housed those who had truly died unjustly and were wrongly accused. However, after seeing other prisoners suffering and begging outside, desperately requesting to enter the city, the City Lord couldn't bear it, so he took them in as well. However, to prevent them from living too comfortably, the City Lord established this rule, forcing them to work hard and honestly, so as to prevent them from continuing to commit crimes! Moreover, the City Lord has also established severe punishments for those who commit crimes!"
"But for those who have truly been wronged, the City Lord will still make some distinctions and continue to exempt them from the obsidian," Fan Xian explained.
"How do you judge whether this is unfair or not? I think I have been wronged enough, why didn't you exempt me from the obsidian?" Jiang Fan asked unwillingly.
"Well... people who have been wronged have a lot of resentment, which will be automatically sensed by the City of Wrongful Death. Mr. Jiang was not sensed... maybe he doesn't have much resentment." Fan Xian answered somewhat embarrassedly.
But this is the truth. Jiang Fan was willing to enter the Eighteen Levels of Hell to save his mother, so naturally he didn't have too much resentment, so he would not be affected by the City of the Dead.
"I have answered Mr. Jiang's question. I wonder if Mr. Jiang is willing to meet with our city lord?" Fan Xian asked.
"Lead the way!" Jiang Fan nodded. He was indeed very interested in this invincible general.
However, before leaving, Jiang Fan reminded him, "Luo Wen, keep an eye on the obsidian! If anyone moves, I'll come back and kill them!"
In front of everyone, it was not convenient for Jiang Fan to use the Samadhi Dan Fire to refine the obsidian, so he had to ask his younger brother Luo Wen to help guard it.
"Yes!" Luo Wen immediately became proud, guarding the mountain of obsidian, looking at everyone with a bully-like look.
Everyone was afraid of Jiang Fan's strength, and under Luo Wen's gaze they actually lowered their heads, not daring to look him in the eye, which made Luo Wen even more proud.
Look, this is the benefit of being a boss's dog! How can you losers understand!
"Don't worry, Mr. Jiang. No one in our boxing gym dares to take your obsidian!" The host Fei Ge also said.
…
After a while, Jiang Fan followed Fan Xian to the tallest building in the entire Wrongful Death City.
It was a four-story villa. On the top floor, Jiang Fan finally saw the legendary lord of the City of the Dead, the invincible general of the previous dynasty, Yuwen Tuoba!
Instead of being as tall and strong as imagined, Yuwen Tuoba actually looked rather thin. He was wearing a white robe and sitting on the city lord's chair. He had a golden mask on his face, so his appearance could not be seen clearly.
"Your Excellency the City Lord, Mr. Jiang Fan has been brought here." Fan Xian looked at Yuwen Tuoba and immediately knelt down and said.
"I understand. You go down first." Yuwen Tuoba nodded at Fan Xian.
After Fan Xian left, Yuwen Tuoba looked at Jiang Fan and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, such a young man has reached the mid-stage of the Land Immortal Realm. When did the outside world produce such a peerless genius? It really makes one sigh that the younger generation pushes the older generation forward!"
Jiang Fan was shocked when he heard this. His Nine Deaths Profound Art was one of the most unique martial arts in the world. Not only was its strength far superior to that of others at the same level, it also had many other benefits.
For example, strong recovery ability, displacement of meridians and bones, and a realm that makes people unable to see themselves clearly!
For so long, Jiang Fan has never met anyone who can see through his own realm!
Until the Yuwen Tuoba in front of him!
