At the same time, a swab of dark clouds dispersed, revealing an island located on the northern side of the Independent State, seemingly secluded from the rest of the world. It silently towered there like a gigantic, torrential beast that wanted to devour every living being that passed. The gales were the roars of the beast, striking terror in its listeners' hearts.
The enormous island stretched as far as the eye could see. There were many intersecting dirt roads and an enormous prison in the center sealed off by specially-made iron fences. No one could enter; no one could leave.
Currently, a young man was using a hoe to dig away the dirt on the exterior, as though he wanted to excavate a tunnel out of the prison with the might of one.
"Hahaha, lad, you haven't been here for too long. When you've been here longer, you'll get used to it."
"That's right. If we could get out by digging like you, we would've left ages ago. Why would we have waited until now?"
On the side, a few middle-aged men looked at the young man and spoke up in exasperation.
Hearing that, the young man smashed his hoe into the ground with tinges of despair.
"Lad, what's your name?" the leader of the middle-aged men inquired.
The young man was silent for a moment before slowly looking up. "Si Xia."
"Si Xia?"
The men looked at each other. His surname was Si...
"Don't tell me you're a member of the Si clan?!"
The only people in the Independent State with the surname Si originated from the Si clan.
"Heh, how am I considered a member of the Si clan?"
Si Xia's lips curled up in a bitter smile.
"Brother Si Xia, just what happened? How did you get captured here?" the lead man asked Si Xia with a furrow of his brows.
This place was the land of despair.
Everyone thought the Martial Arts Union possessed an underground prison and the deepest level held the most vicious, evil, and serious criminals. However... this placethis was the true location of the Martial Arts Union's scariest prison.
"My father's name in the Independent State is probably Si Wutian," Si Xia uttered after some time.
