Chapter 623: Facing The Facts

Sun Peng assigned Bai Xiaochun to Squad 9 Then, just like Duke Deathcrier and Li Xu, he hurried away

The captain of Squad 9 didn’t see Deputy Warden Sun Peng very often, but considering that the man was his direct superior, he quickly picked up on the unspoken hints he had given regarding Bai Xiaochun’s status

The captain was a burly e He al man as the recently famous Bai Clan rebel, and realized he needed to pay special attention to hiuards under his co who Bai Xiaochun was

Bai Xiaochun could see how the captain and the other guards of Squad 9 reacted when he sh they weren’t extre Bai Hao had been a popular topic of conversation recently, and therefore, all of them had at least some impression of him They knew that he was a vicious felloho had reviled his clan, and was the type who shouldn’t be provoked After seeing hih, he didn’t seem to match up to the rumors

Before Bai Xiaochun’s arrival, Squad 9 had consisted of a total of eleven people: ten guards and the captain But now there were twelve There were no woed, with cultivation bases in Core Foruards was so powerful further showed how important Devil Penitentiary was

When Bai Xiaochun realized that the group was not being very welcos over, the captain quickly assigned him quarters in the barracks

“It's all the fault of that Granny Red-Dust!! And Chen Hetian!! Well, whatever Might as well forget about the teleportation portal The best thing to do is increase et back to the Great Wall I already have four deva soul clones All I have to do now is get a metal-type deva soul, and I can step into the Heaven-Dao Nascent Soul stage!” When all was said and done, Bai Xiaochun felt very nervous It was like he alking along the edge of a cliff; the slightest misstep could lead hi he could do about the situation The teleportation portal wasn’t an option, and therefore, unless he siave up on the Heaven-Dao Nascent Soul idea, that meant he only had a bit over a thousand years before he ran out of longevity Then, his drea forever would be impossible to realize
