I Don’t Want to Get Hurt, So I’ll Max Out My Defense - Chapter 624

Chapter 624: Chapter 625: Minimum of 3 Years, Death Penalty Not a Loss
“Well, I didn’t really do much, just flirted with the Old Dragon King of the Eastern Sea’s granddaughter, that’s about it, nothing serious,”

Li Xiaobai scratched his head with an innocent look on his face.

“Bro, you’ve got some nerve, messing with the Old Dragon King’s granddaughter and still alive to tell the tale!”

“For a crime like yours, a three-year sentence is the minimum, death penalty wouldn’t be unjustified!”

The shrimp soldier’s eyes bulged as though they were about to pop out, excitedly sizing up Li Xiaobai, as if he had done something incredible, clicking his tongue continuously.

“This…”

“Are there any big shots imprisoned in the dungeon?”

“What kind of end awaits the prisoners inside?”

Li Xiaobai continued to ask, his main concern being whether he could get out once he was in.

“Everyone imprisoned within the dungeons of the Dragon Palace in the Eastern Sea are vicious criminals, dude. Let me give you a piece of advice: once you’re in, keep your head down, pick up the soap when you’re supposed to, and don’t try to act tough.”

“At your age and stage, you’ve still got a bright future ahead of you. Being locked in the dungeon means there’s still a chance to get out, but if you’re sent to the Celestial Prison, consider your life over.”

“However, you must keep a low profile in the prison; if you get targeted by the people inside, you won’t live to see the day you can get out.”

The shrimp soldier spoke indifferently.

“Celestial Prison?”

“What is that, and are there other prisons within the Dragon Palace?”

Li Xiaobai, quick to pick up on the key point, asked.

“Heh, there are two prisons inside the Dragon Palace of the Eastern Sea. One is the dungeon, which houses a hodgepodge of criminals, from fraudsters to scourges that wreak havoc, all confined within.”

“The Celestial Prison is different. The cultivators imprisoned there are all of Mahayana Realm level or above, each one a demon head responsible for the deaths of millions and the suffering of countless beings! Once thrown in there, there’s never been a single escapee.”

“Young Master Li, take good care of yourself. Generally speaking, being sent to the dungeon is just a minor punishment, and there’s still a chance to see daylight again.”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

The shrimp soldier explained.

“Understood, thanks a lot, Mr. Shrimp!”

Li Xiaobai said gratefully, flipping his wrist to take out a small bag of top-quality Spirit Stones and stuffing it into the shrimp soldier’s giant claw.

“Just a little token of appreciation, no big deal!”

“Hmph, you’re openly bribing a city gate guard – that’s an offence that could lead to the execution of your entire family according to the law!”

“But Mr. Shrimp here has a merciful heart and, considering it your first offense, will let you off this time, but don’t let there be a next time!”

Seeing the small bag of Spirit Stones in his hand, the shrimp soldier’s eyes glittered, but he put on a serious front with a warning before casually pocketing the Spirit Stones.

Watching the shrimp soldier whose mouth was practically grinning to his ears, Li Xiaobai chuckled to himself – it seemed that no matter where you were, Spirit Stones were a universally accepted currency. These days, money made the world go round.

“Hehe, I understand.”

“May I ask where Lady Long currently is, Mr. Shrimp? Is she within this Dragon Palace?”

Li Xiaobai inquired, as the catalyst for this whole series of events was Long Xue; if she could just nod her head and give up on him as her prospective son-in-law, he could leave the Eastern Sea unharmed.

“Of course, she’s here. The little princess is the most doted on by the Dragon King and the pearl of the Eastern Sea – out of everyone you could have provoked, you just had to provoke her. That match is more than you can handle, take my advice and break it off quickly.”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

“I heard that the little princess was engaged since childhood; it must be because you obstructed this marriage that the king is so furious. As long as you withdraw and disappear from the princess’s world from now on, I believe the king won’t make things too difficult for you,”

the shrimp soldier said, admiration involuntarily rising in his heart when he thought of the crime Li Xiaobai had committed.

Seducing a princess from the Sea Clan was not something just anyone could do.

This human youngster before me—there’s something about him.

A human-demon romance, tsk tsk, not simple at all!

“Naturally, I am aware of this, to tell you the truth, I have long wanted to leave,”

Li Xiaobai nodded and agreed with a confirming sentence.

Following the shrimp soldier through the twists and turns of the streets, the passersby looked indistinguishable from humans, most likely transformed into human form to facilitate daily activities.

Of course, there were also many like the shrimp soldiers and crab generals who walked the world in their true Demonic Beast forms, emanating a fearsome and shocking presence, before which ordinary cultivators would all retreat, not daring to provoke them in the slightest.

Luckily, the streets were built very spacious, enough to accommodate these giant creatures passing through.

As time went by, the shops and pedestrians on both sides of the road gradually became sparse, and Li Xiaobai arrived at a desolate and empty land.

Not a blade of grass grew; it was completely uninhabited.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Seeing that the shrimp soldier had stopped, Li Xiaobai asked with some confusion, “Mr. Shrimp, why have we stopped? Aren’t we going to the prison?”

“Young Master Li may not be aware, but the Celestial Prison is a place where serious offenders are detained, and ordinary people cannot approach it. Therefore, the Dragon King has set it up within a small world, and the location of that small world is right beneath our feet on this piece of land,”

the shrimp soldier said with a smile, extending a claw and tapping in the empty space, where a crystal door suddenly appeared and slowly opened, revealing a gloomy and profound passageway.

Even before entering, Li Xiaobai could feel a chill that made him uncomfortable, sending shivers down his spine.

“Let’s go, we’re going to register and report. From now on, this will be your home.”

“Don’t worry, Young Master Li, I will speak with the prison warden on your behalf. As long as you behave inside, no one will make things difficult for you,”

the shrimp soldier said slowly, taking the lead and walking in, with Li Xiaobai closely following behind.

As soon as he stepped in, Li Xiaobai immediately noticed a series of data flickering on the attributes panel before his eyes. It wasn’t Attribute Points, but rather the Blood Sacrifice Fragments, which he hadn’t seen for a long time, making an appearance at this moment.

[Blood Sacrifice Fragment X10…]

[Achievement: Trouble-Maker (35/108) can be obtained.]

All ten fragments were right here within this prison.

Nobody knew what these fragments were, but their appearance at this moment filled Li Xiaobai with elation.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

With his current Attribute Points just a hundred thousand short of reaching the ten million mark, collecting these ten fragments meant he was only lacking Immortal Spirit Qi to upgrade his defensive power.

At last, he had reached this point, and excitement welled up unconsciously in Li Xiaobai’s heart.

“Ah, it’s Lord Shrimp coming today. Is there something important?”

As he was lost in thought, a sultry voice rang out from the darkness, stirring the souls of those who heard it.

Li Xiaobai looked up and was instantly shocked. Before him was a dark, tiny room, and inside sat a scantily clad, alluring woman—flawless in beauty from the waist up, a true paragon among humans, but her lower body consisted of eight furry and terrifyingly large legs. This was none other than a merspider!

In that moment, he finally understood why the shrimp soldiers and crab generals were so keen on coming to the prison—it was for the beauty!

Only, their taste was indeed quite peculiar.
