Chapter 932: 434: The ultimate fate of Turing Duo!_2

He is tainted with demon blood, the evidence irrefutable.

Ji Xiuning’s ethereal beauty trembled slightly; this matter was grave, capable of piercing a hole through the heavens.

The gravity of the situation lay not in the fact that Zhi Li was seeded with demon blood, but where this demon blood had come from.

Could it have originated from the Holy Temple Laboratory of the Dragon Temple?

If so, this would mean that the core departments of the entire Dragon Temple had been infiltrated by a terrifying corruption!

Who could have helped Zhi Li obtain the demon blood?

Of course, it was Yin Zhou. Yin Zhou had begun to infiltrate the vital core departments of the Dragon Temple; this was a monumental matter.

Anti-Dragon faith, anti-Dragon power, these were grave sins! To think that there were people within the Dragon Temple committing such egregious acts knowingly was horrifying!

Ji Xiuning, who was initially prepared to depart, decided to stay in Zhi Du and investigate this matter thoroughly!

Zhen Yan Princess said, "Xiuning, you are aware that behind this matter lies Yin Zhou, as well as the Holy Temple Laboratory of the Dragon Temple. These are two pivotal forces of the Dragon Temple. Once you pierce through this veil, the consequences are unimaginable. Even if your father and teacher protect you with all their might, it may not be enough to ensure your safe retreat."

Ji Xiuning nodded, "I understand, but this matter is far too terrifying, potentially even affecting the capture of the World-Ending Demon Emperor! This indicates that the most core departments of the Dragon Temple have become degenerate. If allowed to continue developing in this vein, the entire upper echelon of the Dragon Temple will start to decay."

Zhen Yan hesitated to speak further.

Ji Xiuning continued, "I am aware that the higher ranks of the Dragon Temple are already rotten to the core, with only the Sky Holy Palace barely maintaining its purity. Precisely for this reason, I need to investigate this matter to the end. Regardless of who is implicated, I will see that severe punishment is meted out. To restore the Dragon Temple to its righteous state, only with a cleansed Dragon Temple can the Human Kingdom be clean."

Lord Suo Lun sighed silently at the side; the saint before him truly had an extraordinary sense of justice.

"I take my leave," said Ji Xiuning.

However, before departing, Ji Xiuning turned back to say, "Lord Suo Lun, after you take control of the Rage Wave Kingdom, will you oppress the Dragon Temple?"

Suo Lun acquiesced.

"I understand your thoughts and actions," said Ji Xiuning. "If you are solely suppressing the military power of the Dragon Temple, I support you. But I hope you will not completely ostracize the Dragon Temple like the East Li Kingdom. No matter how corrupt and fallen the Dragon Temple may be, it remains the guardian deity of the Human Kingdom and the foundation of human civilization. As for your wife, Yan Nai’er, I will urge the Holy Temple Laboratory to conduct research on removing the Demon Bloodline. Once successful, I will find a way to restore her pure Dragon bloodline because her affliction with demon blood was completely passive and without her knowing."

Suo Lun bowed, "I am grateful, Lord Ji Xiuning."

Ji Xiuning nodded slightly and rode the griffon back to the Zhi Du Sanctuary!

Suo Lun stood watching her depart!

Ji Xiuning was incredibly powerful; her martial arts were among the world’s elite, with few who could match her.

The forces behind her were almost invincible! Standing with the Flame Empire and the Chief Priest of the Sky!

Nonetheless, her desire to change the dark state of the Dragon Temple single-handedly was a quixotic charge.

...

Inside the Princess’s Mansion!

Tuli Yang was restless, pacing back and forth, sitting down and then standing up again.

Cup after cup of tea couldn’t drown the irritation in his heart.

He had entered the royal city yesterday, riding a griffon alongside the messenger.

Suo Lun walked in and threw Turing Duo directly in front of him, saying, "My cousin, I promised I would hand Turing Duo over to you, and now she is at your mercy."

In an instant, Tuli Yang was utterly stunned, disbelievingly staring at Suo Lun.

Then, his gaze fell upon Turing Duo lying on the ground.

First shaking, Tuli Yang’s hideous face twisted entirely, his eyes ablaze with immense hatred, a terrible roar emitting from the depths of his throat!

Suo Lun patted his shoulder, then walked out, closing the room door behind him.

The person who had hurt Turing Duo the most was Tuli Yang!

So, no matter what he did, how he ravaged Turing Duo, it was all justified!

"Ah... ah... ah..." In the room, Tuli Yang let out a series of beast-like howls.

Then, there were even more intense sounds.

"Bang bang bang..."

God knows how many things were smashed to pieces.

"Slap slap slap..."

The terrifying sound of iron chains lashing the ground.

And Turing Duo’s screams, "Kill me, kill me!"

Tuli Yang’s beast-like roars got more and more ferocious, and Turing Duo’s screams grew increasingly shrill.

Lord Suo Lun stood there for a while before completely distancing himself!

The noises behind him grew fainter, and he heard Tuli Yang’s roars turn into sobs.

And in Turing Duo’s screams, there was now a desolate laugh.

"Hahaha..." Turing Duo’s laughter was chilling.

...

Unbeknownst to how much time passed, Tuli Yang came out, knelt before Lord Suo Lun, and kowtowed three times.

"Brother Suo Lun, from now on, my life is yours. Whatever you do, I will follow," Tuli Yang said.

Lord Suo Lun smiled, helped him up, and asked, "Is Turing Duo still alive?"

"Still alive," Tuli Yang replied. "I didn’t touch her. Before capturing her, I swore I would torture her with the most cruel methods. I wanted to lash her with red-hot chains, I wanted to peel off her skin inch by inch! In the end, I won’t kill her. I will break her limbs, break her spine. She liked to pretend to be paralyzed before, right? I will make her truly paralyzed and then take care of her for a lifetime."

A shiver ran through Lord Suo Lun!

He hadn’t expected Tuli Yang to have such a thought—keeping Turing Duo truly paralyzed and then taking care of her for life, such a twisted and wicked love.

Tuli Yang continued, "But when the red-hot chain was about to lash down, I felt my interest wane, so instead, I struck the ground. When I wanted to cut off her skin with a dagger, I felt disgusted. And the idea of completely paralyzing her and then taking care of her for life seemed all the more absurd."

"What have you decided to do with her, then?" asked Lord Suo Lun.

"According to the kingdom’s laws, execute her in public!" Tuli Yang replied.

Lord Suo Lun was taken aback. Why did Tuli Yang want to execute Turing Duo according to the kingdom’s laws?

Tuli Yang said, "I think only by letting her go in my heart can I truly move forward."

Lord Suo Lun nodded and said, "Alright, then execute her in public!"

Turing Duo’s crimes were heinous, and according to the kingdom’s laws, neither beheading nor hanging would suffice—they were too light!

The Rage Wave Kingdom did not practice dismemberment as a punishment.

The highest form of death penalty was execution by tearing apart, that is, dismemberment by five horses!

This was the final fate of Turing Duo!

At that moment, Zhuang Zhixuan entered and said, "Master, the King decrees that you and Zhen Yan Princess must immediately enter the palace."

Lord Suo Lun nodded in acknowledgment.

Finally, it was time to face Zhi Li for the last time!
