Chapter 001: The Female Ghost

  And then Yang Hua said that he wanted to stay behind, the first person to be happy was naturally Bai Shi Tong, as if this guy had finally found someone to accompany him.

  "Hey, you're staying? You're staying?" Wan Shitong exclaimed with delight, jumping up and looking at Yang Hua beside him.

  "I have someone by my side now, I finally have someone by my side."

  Yang Hua gazed at this omnipotent being who was like a child, and finally, a long-lost smile floated onto his face.

  He can't remember how long it's been since he last smiled, perhaps this is the first time he has smiled since the incident.

  But this smile was still discovered by that sharp-eyed omniscient person.

  "You little brat smiled, you little brat finally fucking smiled." Wan Shitong shouted loudly while grabbing Yang Hua's arm.

  Perhaps this smile means a person's rebirth, perhaps it was that sentence at 17 that reignited his desire for life, but now whatever it is, he has lived on, and once again come back to life.

  Inside the South Warehouse Prison

  All brothers gathered there.

  Only in the middle stood Yang Hua with his head lowered, next to him was the towering No. 17, and on the other side stood Qing Long, still wrapped in white gauze on his head.

  The body of the Azure Dragon was indeed sturdy. Last time, it had been beaten so badly by the plague god that it was unexpected for its body to recover so quickly.

  Next to him stood the boss of Nancang, 17.

  Only then did 17 pat Yang Hua's shoulder and loudly say to the surrounding brothers: "From today on, this guy called..." At this point, 17 paused for a moment.

  "By the way, what's your name?" Yu asked, turning his head to look at Yang Hua.

  As soon as these words came out, everyone burst out laughing.

  Yang Hua slowly said: "Yang Hua."

  "From today on, Yang Hua is our brother in the South Warehouse. If anyone dares to touch him, it's like touching me. Whoever touches my brother, I'll fight to the death with them."

  All of Nangong's brothers were shouting loudly there.

  They remembered that at the time, every brother who entered Nan Cang was like this, and indeed did so. As for those in Hei Yu who were most loyal to their brothers, none surpassed the brothers of Nan Cang. It was precisely because of this that Nan Cang had the fewest people in all of Hei Yu, yet was also the most united.

  Yang Hua, who rarely spoke, softly said to 17: "Thank you, big brother."

  He patted him on the shoulder: "From now on, we're all brothers in our own family, don't say thank you this and that, it makes me uncomfortable to hear. Look, these are all our brothers from Nan Cang, from now on, with just one word, whoever dares to move against us will be playing with their life."

  A group of old men burst out laughing.

  Yang Hua slowly turned his head, facing the green dragon with a white cloth wrapped around its head. He couldn't help but feel a little guilty in his heart. This majestic creature in front of him had been brutally beaten by that evil god for his sake and he hadn't even had a chance to thank it yet. So he said: "Dragon brother, last time you were...".

  "Stop, stop, stop. Yang Hua, if you say one more word, I, Qing Long, will no longer recognize you as my brother." Qing Long said with a smile, waving one hand.

  Yang Hua looked at Qinglong with gratitude.

  "If anyone dares to touch you again, I'll be the first to take him down." Qing Long patted his broad chest and shouted with a serious expression, as if he would go all out to fight anyone who dared to mess with Yang Hua at this moment.

  "Yang Hua, judging from your appearance, you used to be a bookworm, right? How did someone like you end up in this godforsaken place?" The big and burly Qing Long said, looking at Yang Hua's slender body.

  Yes, Yang Hua was indeed a student as Qing Long said before, but the sudden change brought him to this ghostly place. How can a thin and weak guy with almost no combat power be strong in front of these evil and vicious dead prisoners who have done all sorts of bad things outside?

  Yang Hua's expression paused slightly upon hearing Qing Long's words, after all, it was related to his own past, and Yang Hua was extremely heartbroken.

  He nodded.

  Qing Long burst out laughing and said, "Then you can follow behind the brothers later. With your small build, if you really encounter those sons of bitches, there will indeed be times when you can't handle it."

  Next to him, 17 also turned his head to look at the young man. From his eyes, it was clear that the young man in front of him didn't seem suitable for this place. He didn't appear to be someone who would stay in a dark prison either. However, unlike Qing Long, 17 didn't think Yang Hua was weak and couldn't withstand a blow. 17 could sense that although the young man seemed thin on the surface, he had an absolutely shocking power within him. Especially with those scarlet eyes that seemed to be able to burn the entire world, there was endless hatred burning inside them. 17 secretly thought that perhaps it was because of the anger in his eyes that this young man entered the dark prison for a reason. As for what kind of anger could make someone lose their rationality, 17 didn't know and didn't want to know. Because he understood that every extreme offender here had their own story that they didn't want others to mention.

  And Yang Hua, originally with an icy heart, suddenly felt a surge of warmth. At this moment, he only felt that he was not so unfortunate after all. At least in this hell-like world, there were still such good brothers. Heaven did not wrong him.

  Yang Hua returned to his cell and saw Bai Shi Tong staring at him with a sly smile.

  "What's wrong?" Yang Hua asked Baishi Tong in puzzlement.

  Baishi Tong sneered and shook his head, saying: "You little brat, you're not bad at all. I didn't expect that as soon as we arrived at the Black Prison, our boss would treat you so well."

  Yang Hua did not make a sound, but his heart was shaken with gratitude.

  "Do you know what our boss was before he turned 17?" Baishi Tong said mysteriously.

  Yang Hua shook his head, of course he didn't know about 17's past.

  "Know this? The big boss used to be a notorious figure in other cities, known for being ruthless and skilled in combat. Even now, in the black prison, aside from the monsters in the 'dead house', our big boss is probably the strongest. In previous life-and-death matches, he was always the victor. Not even the most ferocious inmates in the north warehouse, like Lei Bao and his gang, dare to provoke him easily. And yet, our big boss is also the most righteous person in the black prison. I heard that's why he ended up here - because he was too righteous. Who would have thought you'd be so lucky, arriving just as you did, and ending up in our south warehouse? If you had been assigned to the north warehouse or fallen into the hands of those freaks from the east warehouse, your body would probably be frozen stiff by now."

  "What's this about a life and death fist you're talking about?" Yang Hua couldn't help but ask.

  Pepsi's face wrinkled: "Ah, it's better not to know, with your build, you'll probably be beaten to death in two moves..."

  "All those who practice the Fist of Life and Death are fugitives, goods that kill people outside without blinking an eye, and they don't care about their own lives at all. For us, it's not even worth thinking about..."

  Yang Hua did not continue asking, but a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
