Chapter 634

Escape (1)
Translated by Kollumceti of Exiled Rebels Scanlations

The days of waiting were difficult to pass. You XiaoMo listened to the man’s words and bide his time. However, even if he wanted to make a move, he could only open his magic bag as his dimension was not responding at all.

In the past, most of his things were placed in his dimension because he was worried about the magic bag being stolen. Even now, there were not many things in the magic bag. Yet, that was not completely true as there were two bottles of spiritual water and several bottles of magic pills in the bag.

Before the beginning of the second exam, he did not place the Soul Restoration Pill and Energy Restoration Pill that he had taken out back into his dimension. Instead, he had directly thrown them into his magic bag. The two bottles of spiritual water were prepared mainly for his convenience, but now they had come in handy.

After being shut in here for several days, You XiaoMo had already gotten familiar with the man next door to him and knew that he was called He Dong, and had been confined in the TongTian Palace for nearly five hundred years.

However, his bitter experience was different from You XiaoMo’s because he had justly and openly won second place in the exam, and later joined the TongTian Palace.

At that time, he was full of passion for the TongTian Palace like the others, but it was not long before his admiration was shattered and he became one of the prisoners here in less than three months.

You XiaoMo had also inquired about the situation of those who had been brought out and had never returned. Although it was not clear what conspiracy was brewing in the TongTian Palace, the discontented ones generally died the fastest as there were no rules in their experiments.

Besides that, one hundred and thirty four people were imprisoned here. This was quite a fair number and all of them were experts above the Divine Realm.

You XiaoMo could not help gasping when listening to He Dong. This number was too large. It would be extremely noticeable if so many people went missing at the same time. However, there may not be anyone noticing if a few people went missing each time with so many experts in the TongTian Continent.

However, You XiaoMo did not expect that the TongTian Palace would even make a move on their own people.

No matter what, there was some relation between the XiaoYao Institution and the TongTian Palace. Yet, the TongTian Palace actually borrowed this name to brazenly grab people, one may well say that they were really too audacious.

You XiaoMo could not help suspecting that it was because the experiment had already reached the second half or was about to be completed, so they were becoming more and more lax in concealing their actions.

He Dong cast a sidelong glance at him when You XiaoMo raised this question.

He Dong did not expect that he would be so perceptive, so he did not conceal it any longer, “As you have said, I also suspect that the TongTian Palace’s conspiracy is probably nearing completion. In the past, the TongTian Palace came here every three or four months to take a person away. But now the intervals between the visits are getting shorter and shorter. You should also have noticed this since they’re practically taking one away each day.”

Dozens of cells in the prison – that could hold two hundred prisoners – were already empty. In the past, there would be someone shoved inside immediately once a cell was empty. But now the number of people here were decreasing.

“So you mean that it won’t be long before our turn comes?” You XiaoMo stared at him with wide eyes. He sure did not wish for his turn to come so quickly.
