Lv Bai’s words were abrupt, yet his tone remained as gentle as always.

Those inmates around, who were intimidated by Misa Prison Warden’s display, instinctively turned to look at him, and most recognized him as the guy who first stormed into the prison.

Lv Bai suddenly spoke, and Misa Prison Warden indeed paused what he was doing.

But it wasn’t out of fear or anything else, just simply finding this "interlude" quite interesting.

He glanced at the already panting Dao Zheng Wood on the side, then turned his focus back to Lv Bai with a somewhat peculiar tone, "You’re saying, give you some face?"

Lv Bai nodded and added with a cheerful smile.

"After all, I’ve been entrusted by someone to at least take this old man out alive, right?"

"Oh? So you’re the one causing this chaos."

Misa Prison Warden sized up Lv Bai in the prison guard’s uniform and quickly realized what was going on, then took a few steps towards Lv Bai’s position.

His movements seemed casual, yet they made the inmates present feel their hearts pounding wildly.

The inmates being protected by Lv Bai subconsciously dispersed to ensure no obstacles stood between them.

Misa Prison Warden rolled up his sleeves, his scholarly appearance now tinged with a bit of coldness.

"You’ve added so much work for me; how should I thank you?"

With a swish, Dao Zheng Wood appeared between the two, his already prominent forehead wrinkles now furrowed into a cluster.

He stared at the Misa Prison Warden in front of him and said without turning his head, "He’s inherently difficult; don’t make trouble for me, old man. If you can escape, just do it."

"That’s not possible."

Lv Bai took two steps forward, coming to stand alongside Dao Zheng Wood, "If I don’t get you out, wouldn’t my coming here be in vain?"

"Is there something wrong with your head, kid?" Dao Zheng Wood couldn’t help but give him a sideways glance.

"I think it’s a kind of confidence."

Misa Prison Warden burst into hearty laughter, remaining very composed.

Even knowing that Lv Bai must have some skills to infiltrate the prison, he was still confident that he wouldn’t let any inmate escape.

After laughing enough, he stepped towards Lv Bai and Dao Zheng Wood.

"Alright, enough joking around. Stubborn as you are, I’ll send you on your way now."

He clenched his fist and punched out, the violent tremor expelling all the air around, the terrifying fist force carrying an immensely powerful oppressive feeling.

"Move!"

Dao Zheng Wood clasped his fists, suddenly halted and sidestepped his elbow, neither more nor less, his legs measured the distance on the ground like a ruler.

Boom!

A burst of blood mist erupted from the old man’s elbow, with ghastly white bones protruding.

The scattering aftermath of the impact spread irregularly in all directions, shattering each one of the lighting fixtures, dimming the space between the two doors.

Misa Prison Warden rushed forward again with a follow-up punch.

With a crisp sound of "crack," the elbow joint bone of Dao Zheng Wood, tempered to the hardness of metal through inner strength refinement, broke into half right on the spot.

Dao Zheng Wood’s expression drastically changed.

Due to the prior experiences of the White Eyebrow Bat King and the other three, he knew this younger opponent was energetic and in his prime.

Thus, he had always avoided direct confrontation with the Misa Prison Warden, but he hadn’t expected to still be caught by him.

He endured the pain and grabbed his broken arm, planning to pull away for the moment.

Unfortunately, Misa wasn’t as casual as before; instead, he pressed his advantage, striking with another punch.

The extremely fierce punch shattered Dao Zheng Wood’s right arm inch by inch, leaving almost only a layer of skin barely wrapping the bone and flesh.

"Damn it!"

Dao Zheng Wood’s body leaned backward, about to collapse weakly, but thanks to Lv Bai’s quick reflexes, he supported him, preventing further injury from his head hitting the ground.

This old man with few hairs on his head turned pale, devoid of any flush, both finding it hard to accept the reality before him and unable to believe Misa could be this strong.

"If I were ten years younger, old man, I would never have... lost!"

Upon witnessing this scene, the inmates present appeared like dead ashes, realizing that even four grandmaster-level martial artists were swept clean, leaving the hope of the prison break nearly null.

Some inmates even secretly slipped away from the crowd, intending to sneak back to their cells.

"Lost is lost; why can’t you accept your defeat?"

Lv Bai gently laid the old man down on the ground, teasingly chuckling.

He exuded an aura of harmlessness, and even though Misa Prison Warden understood that Lv Bai might have some abilities, he subconsciously harbored little precaution against him.

Misa Prison Warden casually approached Dao Zheng Wood and Lv Bai, the two only a step apart.

"Since you knew it would end like this, there was no need to start it."

Misa sighed, lifting his foot to step down on the prone Dao Zheng Wood while barely glancing at Lv Bai.

"You’re standing too close."

In this fleeting instant, Lv Bai suddenly chuckled lightly.

[Flash Time] was silently triggered, and the world before him seemed to hit the pause button.

His inner strength completely circulated to his refined right hand, which then formed into a fist and punched toward Misa Prison Warden’s face.

Endowed with grandmaster-level inner strength, the air around the right hand appeared distorted, the flesh sparkling like fine-tuned divine steel, radiating a shattering aura, tearing through the air to hit the target.

At this moment, half a second had just passed.

In front of [Flash Time], a rule-breaking ability, no matter how strong Misa Prison Warden was, there was no way to make any defensive move at such close range. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Bam!!!

It was akin to turning the microphone volume to max, then striking it on your head.

A huge collision sound, dull and brief.

Misa Prison Warden’s forehead split open like parched and cracked earth, blood spattered everywhere.

Under the sudden and massive force, Misa Prison Warden’s head snapped backward, and his entire body flew uncontrollably backward, crashing into and collapsing the last iron door of the A Detention Area, until he finally stopped.

"Hiss..."

"..."

In an instant, the entire corridor fell into a deathly silence, so silent that a pin drop could be heard.

Each one of the inmates present widened their eyes, almost ready to pop out their eyeballs.

Even the three seasoned grandmasters, including White Eyebrow Bat King, found themselves dumbstruck.

This unexpected turn of events was too delightful to believe, too incredible to accept.

After all, no matter how you analyzed it, Lv Bai didn’t resemble a grandmaster-level figure.

Yet here was the inescapable truth.

And the speed so rapid that no one could catch a glimpse, evidently not an ordinary grandmaster martial artist.

"Such a young grandmaster?!"

Dao Zheng Wood, being the closest, was shocked, his mouth agape, and after a while, he finally asked in a strained voice, "What exactly did my good son offer you to entice such a young grandmaster like you to take this risk?"
