Ye Zhen unleashes an unexpected Bone-attached Poison Flame, severely injuring Hur Tai and burning off his arms. Black Cloud Great Sage struggles to extinguish the flames, revealing the power of Ye Zhen's attack. Though Ye Zhen successfully rescues Xuan Hu and departs, Black Cloud Great Sage is incensed and plots their capture.

"What does this mean?"

"Great Sage, you won’t go back on your word and become someone untrustworthy, will you?" In the middle of the passage of the Black Tiger Prison, Ye Zhen looked at the Black Cloud Great Sage who was menacingly blocking their way, his expression extremely gloomy.

Ye Zhen didn’t expect that just as they were about to leave the Black Tiger Prison, the Black Cloud Great Sage would come and block them again, preventing their departure.

"Great Sage, our Demon Race values promises the most. You wouldn’t be so petty, would you?" Looking at the obstructing Black Cloud Great Sage, Yun Ben also questioned.

"Hmph, Hur Yun, I didn’t think you were such an untrustworthy scoundrel. Truly, I’ve misjudged you, and to think you’re such a renowned Great Sage of our Tiger Clan!"

Even though the Black Cloud Great Sage had mentally prepared himself, he was still enraged by Yun Ben and Hur Chimei’s insults.

"Who said this Great Sage reneged on his word?"

"Black Prison!"

"Understand this, this Great Sage previously only promised this Ye that if he could withstand three moves without dying, he would allow him to take Xuan Hu away from the Black Prison!"

"Now, this Great Sage has already let him take Xuan Hu out of the Black Prison, hasn’t he? Here, you’re already at the boundary of the Black Tiger Prison. This Great Sage never agreed to let this surnamed Ye take Xuan Hu out of this Black Tiger Prison!" The Black Cloud Great Sage hurriedly defended himself.

"Shameless!"

"Brazen!"

The hot-tempered Hur Chimei pointed at the Black Cloud Great Sage’s nose and cursed angrily, "You’re actually playing such a semantic game, truly shameless!"

"Who says this Great Sage is playing semantic games? This Great Sage made this clear from the start!" As he spoke, the Black Cloud Great Sage activated the Shadow Capture Jade Slip that Fox ZiBo had given him earlier.

In the light and shadow overhead, the image and voice of the Black Cloud Great Sage reappeared, "Three moves, as long as he can withstand three moves under my hand without dying, I will allow you to take Xuan Hu out of this Black Prison!"

The Black Cloud Great Sage pointed at the light and shadow above, "Listen carefully, this Great Sage said from the start, if you can withstand three moves without dying, this Great Sage will let you take Xuan Hu out of the Black Prison, not this Black Tiger Prison!"

"Hur Chimei, considering you also have the Black Tiger Clan’s bloodline, this time, this Great Sage won’t pursue the matter. However, if you dare to defame this Great Sage’s reputation again next time, this Great Sage will definitely seek an explanation from the Red Tiger King!" The Black Cloud Great Sage coldly threatened.

"You!"

Hur Chimei was furious, "Despicable villain!"

Behind the Black Cloud Great Sage, Fox ZiBo, who had just been confirmed as his think tank mastermind, laughed lowly, "Princess Chimei, your words are incorrect.

The Great Sage only allowed Ye Zhen to take Xuan Hu away from Black Earth to ensure the brotherly spirit between Ye Zhen and Xuan Hu. Not allowing Ye Zhen to take Xuan Hu out of the Black Tiger Prison is setting an example, upholding the laws of the Tiger Clan.

This action of the Great Sage is righteous and measured, not despicable!

Anyway, as Princess Chimei pressured her way in, infiltrating the Black Tiger Prison’s Black Prison and bringing aliens in. If this gets out, those who know understand Princess Chimei’s righteousness, but those who don’t might think Princess Chimei disregards Tiger Clan laws and colludes with outsiders!"

"You..."

Hur Chimei was speechless with anger.

With just a few words, Fox ZiBo turned the situation around, not only placing a hat of righteousness on the Black Cloud Great Sage but also giving Hur Chimei a not inconsiderable charge.

Yet, from a stance of righteousness, Hur Chimei couldn’t argue against it.

It’s not too much to call it turning black into white.

Even Yun Ben dared not speak, the cap set by Fox ZiBo was difficult to bear.

The Black Cloud Great Sage, who had been angry before, was now beaming.

This Fox Commander ZiBo of the Fox Clan had provided numerous strategies since he joined, which, though somewhat sinister, had always been disliked by the Black Cloud Great Sage.

But today, the Black Cloud Great Sage found Fox ZiBo increasingly favorable!

"I wonder what it will take for the Great Sage to let me take Xuan Hu out of this Black Tiger Prison?" Ye Zhen suddenly spoke.

Ye Zhen’s eyes no longer held anger. On the surface, it seemed Ye Zhen and the others were careless and didn’t notice the semantic game played by the Black Cloud Great Sage.

But in reality, it all depended on the will of the Black Cloud Great Sage himself.

"How about the Great Sage makes another bet with me, to see if I can withstand three more moves from the Great Sage without dodging or evading?" Ye Zhen suddenly challenged.

Facing Ye Zhen’s direct challenge, the Black Cloud Great Sage, being proud, thought that even if Ye Zhen was somewhat extraordinary, he was merely a Martial Artist at the Peak of Ninth Stage Dark Palace Realm.

For a Great Sage of Mid Dao Realm like him, it would be an easy task.

In his view, as long as he casually eliminated Ye Zhen, no one would speak for Xuan Hu anymore.

But just as the Black Cloud Great Sage was about to accept the challenge, Fox ZiBo once again sent divine soul telecommunication to the Black Cloud Great Sage, causing his expression to change several times.

"What, is the Great Sage afraid?" Ye Zhen’s challenging voice rang out again.

"You, you’re not worthy!"

The Black Cloud Great Sage sneered, "Furthermore, this Saint will not fall for your trap!"

"With this Saint’s status, allowing a small figure at the Peak of Ninth Stage Dark Palace Realm to withstand my three moves without dodge or evade, even if I crush you into meat paste, if word gets out, this Saint’s reputation will be ruined!

This Saint would have to bear the title of bullying the weak for a lifetime! Stop dreaming!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhen appeared visibly disappointed, while Xuan Hu breathed a sigh of relief.

Letting Ye Zhen forcibly withstand three moves from a Dao Realm expert is unimaginably difficult.

In fact, Ye Zhen was not very confident in taking on three moves from a mid-stage Dao Realm expert, but with the immense All Living Beings’ Will Power obtained in the Yizhi Sand Sea, Ye Zhen had no problem defending his life.

"Guards, take Xuan Hu to the prison cell, and drive out all unrelated people from the Black Tiger Prison!" ordered the Black Cloud Great Sage suddenly.

In the next moment, more than a dozen Demon Commanders rushed forward to seize Xuan Hu behind Ye Zhen.

"Hold on!"

Ye Zhen suddenly stood up, and the Bone-attached Poison Flame that almost burned Hur Tai to death emerged once again, immediately causing the group of Demon Commanders to halt in fear.

The eyes of the Black Cloud Great Sage narrowed sharply, glowing with a dangerous light.

"How dare a mere human act recklessly within my Tiger Clan’s Black Tiger Prison? Yun Ben, Chimei, are you two trying to help this person create chaos?"

In the next instant, the face of the Black Cloud Great Sage turned sinister, "Transmit my command, the Black Tiger Prison is to be immediately sealed off. If anyone causes trouble, kill them without mercy!"

Almost simultaneously, the aura of the Dao Realm expert from the Black Cloud Great Sage was firmly locked onto Ye Zhen.

Ye Zhen’s gaze met directly with that of the Black Cloud Great Sage, fiercely clashing in the void, creating rings of air ripples.

At this moment, Ye Zhen was already preparing for a desperate fight.

The Black Cloud Great Sage, a mid-stage Dao Realm expert, although from the Tiger Clan, with strong combat power, and extremely formidable innate divine abilities, Ye Zhen might not be unable to deal with the Black Cloud Great Sage if he exhausted his trump cards.

No matter if it’s the Guardian Battle Spirit from the Barbarian Spirit Hall or Wang Baimu, they can give Ye Zhen an opportunity.

But what Ye Zhen considers is the aftermath.

This Black Tiger Prison is a self-contained realm; even if Ye Zhen deals with the Black Cloud Great Sage, how to get out would still be a problem.

Moreover, once the decisive battle occurs, whether the Black Cloud Great Sage or the more than a dozen Demon Commanders here will have plenty of time to warn the Tiger Clan of the White Tiger Mountain Range.

Ye Zhen doesn’t have the ability to kill them all instantly.

In other words, even if Ye Zhen uses all his trump cards and deals with the Black Cloud Great Sage, after leaving the Black Tiger Prison, he would face an overwhelming attack from the Tiger Clan.

At that time, not only would he fail to rescue Xuan Hu, but he would also trap himself inside, not to mention endanger Tiger Chimei and Yun Ben, who helped him.

Thinking for a moment, Ye Zhen decided to temporarily abandon the idea of a desperate fight.

"I am not causing chaos, I am just confirming whether the Great Sage’s previous promise still holds?" asked Ye Zhen.

Upon hearing this, the extremely anxious Yun Ben and Tiger Chimei simultaneously relaxed.

If Ye Zhen had really fought desperately earlier, it would have been a major problem for them.

"Of course it’s valid! Didn’t I already allow you to bring Xuan Hu out of the black prison?"

"The Great Sage won’t put Xuan Hu back into the black prison, can he recuperate in Black Tiger Prison?" Although Black Tiger Prison is still a prison, judging by the conditions, it is much better than Lin Qi Black Prison.

Although the environment is a bit poor, with the strong body recovery ability and adequate food, Xuan Hu’s injuries will heal in no time.

"Of course, what do you think I, the Great Sage, am? I keep my word, having said I would bring him out of the black prison, he won’t be sent back in." Unwilling to miss a chance to build his image, the Black Cloud Great Sage naturally wouldn’t let it slip.

"Adequate food?" asked Ye Zhen.

"The prisoners of Black Tiger Prison are all treated the same; food supply is the same as for other prisoners."

Ye Zhen turned his gaze to the Guardian Demon Commander, who hurriedly replied, "Inside Black Tiger Prison, each prisoner receives ten pounds of mixed grains and one pound of Blood Food every three days."

"That’s good!"

Ye Zhen nodded, "The Great Sage’s ability to keep his word is admirable!"

Saying this, Ye Zhen hugged Xuan Hu and used Divine Soul Telecommunication to say, "Heal well, give me some time, I will find a way to rescue you!" While speaking, Ye Zhen quietly slipped a storage ring filled with food, Spirit Stones, and pills into the bandage wrapping Xuan Hu’s wound during the embrace.

"Farewell!"

"Let’s go!"

Subsequently, Ye Zhen, Tiger Chimei, Yun Ben, Little Cat, and Ling Qianbi, among others, all followed behind Ye Zhen, striding towards the Two-World Passage of Black Tiger Prison.

With a gesture from the Black Cloud Great Sage, the Guardian Demon Commander let them pass on the spot!

"Remember, after leaving, you must first go to Qingqiu to find Hu Qingtong and deliver the message to Qing Tong’s child for me!

Then, go find Monkey; he will tell you how to rescue me!

Remember, you must first go to Qingqiu to find Qing Tong!"

As Ye Zhen was leaving Black Tiger Prison, Xuan Hu almost roared through Divine Soul Telecommunication, letting these words echo in Ye Zhen’s Dao Realm.

When leaving Black Tiger Prison, Ye Zhen frowned deeply, wondering why Xuan Hu emphasized repeatedly to meet Hu Qingtong in Qingqiu first.

Ye Zhen was quite puzzled!
