Chapter 1367 1365: Leisurely Stroll into the Fire Clan Prison
On the other side.
Lin Fan strolled leisurely towards the Fire Clan prison, slowly, contentedly.
He looked around as if he were on a leisurely outing, not someone about to be locked in a prison.
He would walk and stop, praising the buildings and scenery of the Fire Clan.
The two attendants escorting him to the prison did not dare urge him; after all, he had survived under the High Priest Gong Wenyao's aura of pressure.
This was unprecedented!
And moreover,
He was from the Sumeru Continent!
Their skills were certainly no match for the High Priest, so they didn't dare say much to Lin Fan and could only follow respectfully behind, slowly walking as well.
When Lin Fan finally had his fill, he turned back and asked them, "Where is the Fire Clan prison? Why haven't you led the way?"
The two attendants, bewildered and aggrieved, thought it was their delay, but it was clearly because he wanted to look around and enjoy the scenery…
But there was nothing they could do; they had to swallow their anger and lead the way, across one layer of steps after another, turning through circles, and finally arrived at the Fire Clan prison.
This was the deepest place of the Fire Clan!
All around was utter darkness, hands couldn't even be seen, one couldn't even see the road ahead, it was pitch-black.
And moreover,
A faint eerie wind blew from the prison, chilling to the bone, causing an involuntary shiver.
The two attendants clearly didn't come to this place often either, their bodies shivered violently, trembling in fear, teeth chattering.
Whoosh!
A spark ignited in the attendant's palm, finally illuminating the road ahead.
Only then did Lin Fan clearly see the situation in the Fire Clan prison.
A vast open space lay before him with a strangely shaped pillar towering in the center, its top unseen.
Shouting here would echo countless times.
The surrounding area was lined with cell after cell; Lin Fan roughly counted, only about ten, not a place frequently occupied, hence not many cells.
However,
Each cell door had a thick chain, one end fastened to the cell door, and the other connected to the mysterious central pillar, its purpose unknown.
Lin Fan frowned, was it to prevent escape that the cell door was locked in this way?
But the design was so peculiar, never before had he seen a cell door lock fashioned like this.
The subterranean space was very damp, the ground flooded. No sunlight ever reached here, hence the waterlogged ground.
Besides being cold and damp, it was stiflingly hot, oppressive to breathe.
Altogether very uncomfortable, not a place for human habitation.
However,
Lin Fan didn't mind; he looked around with great interest, and began to contemplate the central pillar.
"Brothers, what is this thing, so oddly shaped," he couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Uh… we don't really know… ever since we knew of this prison's existence, this thing has been here… but no one has ever entered this prison…" the two attendants said timidly.
"So I'm the first?!" Lin Fan laughed, not only unfazed but excited.
"Uh… you could say that…" the two attendants exchanged glances, full of helplessness, is this guy crazy? Being locked in this never-before-entered prison, likely to die here, yet so excited, he must be out of his mind, definitely out of his mind!
Lin Fan didn't care about their expressions, quickly walking around the surroundings.
He stopped at each cell, scrutinizing inside carefully. In the places illuminated by the fire, he saw countless bugs scurry away, one layer after another.
His face remained unchanged, as if choosing a residence, he carefully examined each one, hands behind his back.
"This one!" Lin Fan said with a smile, pointing to a cell on the left. "This one's slightly cleaner, and not as damp. Please open the door, I want to go in and sleep!"
"Sigh, it really wasn't easy coming to your Five Elements Realm, first getting ambushed by the Gatekeeper, almost eaten by a dragon; luckily, I countered and even saved the dragon."
"But right after, as I was complaining about how this place looks like the outskirts of a city, your Clan Leader's daughter saw me and insisted I apologize. Then I ran into that pretentious, interfering Lan Zhengqing…"
Lin Fan grumbled, shaking his head helplessly.
The two attendants did not dare delay, quickly opening the cell door, standing respectfully at one side, waiting for Lin Fan to enter himself.
After his tirade, Lin Fan finally stopped.
"The door is open, right? Okay, I'm going in. You can go back and report."
Lin Fan swaggered inside, nonchalant.
The two attendants were about to lock the door when they saw Lin Fan's sinister face emerge from the darkness, eerily addressing them.
"Brothers, can I discuss something with you?"
The two attendants were scared out of their minds, rooted to the spot, not daring to move.
"What… what's the matter?"
Lin Fan frowned, glancing around, "This place is just too dark, if the fire goes out, I can't see a thing. How about one of you lends me an arm for light? I don't need much, just one arm will do."
As he spoke, he cracked a sinister smile.
The two attendants' breath caught, stunned for several seconds.
Suddenly!
The Fire Clan prison erupted in a horrific roar, they frantically locked the cell door, and dashed out of the prison!
Running for their lives!
This guy is crazy?! Asking to borrow a hand for light! Can you even borrow something like that, it can't be reattached once severed!
In a flash, they vanished without a trace.
Lin Fan helplessly rolled his eyes, chuckled.
"Just a joke, but scared them like this. This Five Elements Realm seems not so great, nothing special. They always call the Sumeru Continent ants, where do they get their confidence?"
Lin Fan yawned, stretched lazily, and sat down on the stone bench.
The violent aura and authority he carried made all the insects in the cell flee like the two attendants, scattering when Lin Fan stepped in, leaving it unusually clean.
So Lin Fan didn't need to worry about insects; even if there were any, they were frightened by his presence and dared not approach.
Just as Lin Fan was about to close his eyes and relax.
Emperor Jade suddenly appeared in his mind, looking helpless and worried.
"Xiao Fan Fan, why did you come to this place? It's pitch dark and nothing can be seen, yet you're so calm. What if you were to die here, what then?"
