The death by lingchi in the Underworld is not the same as that in other places.
The Underworld is not only proficient in the art of assassination, but also in cruel torture.
There are a total of three hundred and sixty-five kinds of cruel tortures in the Underworld. The so-called lingchi means that one has to endure all three hundred and sixty-five kinds of cruel tortures first, and then be sentenced to the most severe punishment.
Granny Ghost Sword has been in the Underworld for many years and is very clear about how those cruel tortures are this moment, when she heard Scholar Bai say that she would be sentenced to death by lingchi, she was so scared that she almost lost control of her bladder.
“Please be merciful, master, and spare this subordinate’s life. This subordinate will definitely find a way to kill Ye Wushuang.”
After Granny Ghost Sword finished speaking, she kowtowed desperately.
“Granny Ghost Sword, you know the rules of the Underworld. No matter who it is, if they violate the rules, they must be punished.”
The man in the mask changed the tone of his voice and said, “However, I am not a cruel person.”
“You have joined the Underworld for many years and are an old member of our East Wilderness Branch Hall. Over the years, you have carried out many missions and can be regarded as conscientious and dedicated. In view of your past contributions, I can give you a lighter sentence.”
Upon hearing this, Granny Ghost Sword’s heart rejoiced and she quickly said, “Thank you, Hall Master.”
“There’s no need to thank me. You’ve followed me for so many years and it’s not easy. If I were to severely punish you, I wouldn’t feel right in my heart.” The masked man’s tone changed and he said, “Solve it yourself.”
Solve it myself？
Granny Ghost Sword didn’t react for a while and asked, “Hall Master, what do you mean？”
That burly man said, “Old woman, I think you’re really muddle-headed. What the Hall Master means is to ask you to commit suicide.”
“Lei Gang, can’t you speak more politely？” The masked man swept a glance at the burly man.
The burly man immediately shut his mouth.
Granny Ghost Sword said, “Hall Master, didn’t you just say that you would give me a lighter punishment？”
“What, do you think solving it yourself isn’t light enough？” The masked man said, “If you don’t want to solve it yourself, then you can choose to be executed by lingchi.”
Granny Ghost Sword was so scared that she kowtowed again. While kowtowing, she said tearfully, “Hall Master, now that the hall has lost five Killing Saints and it’s a time when we need people, please don’t kill me. I will definitely find a way to kill Ye Wushuang and atone for my sins. Please be merciful…”
“Hall Master！” Just then, a voice sounded at the door.
I saw a young man in black kneeling on one knee on the ground, with his hands clasped and his body bowed.
“What’s the matter？” The masked man asked.
The young man replied, “Reporting to the master, three people broke in, one of them is Ye Wushuang.”
”Huh？” The masked man raised his eyebrows and muttered, “How could Ye Wushuang know the location of our branch hall？”
Lei Gang said, “Our branch hall has not had any outsiders break in for so many years. Ye Wushuang was actually able to find it. It seems that that guy has some skills.”
”Bai Xiucai, what do you think？” The masked man asked.
Bai Xiucai replied, “Even the giants of the several major forces in the Eastern Wasteland would not be able to find this place. Ye Wushuang was actually able to come here. That can only mean that someone led the way for him.”
The masked man’s eyes fell on Granny Ghost Sword and asked, “Was it you who brought Ye Wushuang here？”
“It wasn’t me!” The master sees clearly and it really wasn’t me.” Granny Ghost Sword tried hard to deny.
If it wasn’t ‘tyou, who could it be? The masked man snorted. “I previouslyfeel uncertain why Ye Wushuang killed five Great Saints and let you escape?
”Now I understand. Ye Wushuang deliberately let you escape in order to follow the vine and find the location of our branch hall.”
”You stupid fool, being used by him without even knowing it. You really deserve to die.”
Granny Ghost Sword wanted to defend, “Master…”
Just as she opened her mouth, she was interrupted by the masked man.
“Granny Ghost Sword, you have been in the Underworld for so many years. You should know that everything about the Underworld is confidential and must not be leaked to the outside world even a little bit. Especially the location of the branch hall is the top secret among secrets. But you actually led an outsider here. Now even if I wanted to protect you, I couldn’t.”
“Do you know that the location of this branch hall was found by Lord Yama after searching for a long time.”
“Now because of you, the location of the branch hall has been exposed. This means that this place is no longer safe and Lord Yama must find another place.”
“Lord Yama is very busy with countless affairs every day. You have caused him such a big trouble. If you don’t go to die, who should go to die？”
“I’m asking you for the last time. Are you going to solve it yourself or do I send you on your way？”
Granny Ghost Sword said： “Hall Master, don’t kill me, don’t kill me…”
“Lei Gang, send him on his way.” The masked man ordered.”
“Yes！” The big and burly man replied, and then carried the sledgehammer and walked towards Granny Ghost Sword. While walking, he said： “Old woman, you can’t blame me. If you want to blame, blame yourself for being useless. You not only failed to complete the task, but also exposed the location of the branch hall…”
At the critical moment of life and death.”
Granny Ghost Sword said anxiously： “Hall Master, I have important information to report. There is a master beside Ye Wushuang. I saw with my own eyes that he slapped…”
Dong！
Granny Ghost Sword’s words were only half said when her head was suddenly smashed into minced meat by the sledgehammer.”
”At the point of death, still talking so much nonsense. Don’t you know to save some strength?” Lei Gang said with a look of disgust on his face.
The masked man asked, “Lei Gang, why didn’t you let Granny Ghost Sword finish her words？”
Lei Gang said, “This old hag just wants to delay time and live a little longer. The master doesn’t need to care.”
The masked man said, “But she just said that there is a master beside Ye Wushuang.”
Lei Gang said disdainfully, “Leaving aside whether what this old hag said is true or not, even if there is really a master beside Ye Wushuang, so what? Can he be stronger than the giants of several major forces in the Eastern Wilderness?
”It’s not me boasting. Even if Wuji Tianzun and Xiao Zhonglou come, they will only have a dead end.”
After all, Bai Xiucai and I are at the peak of the Great Sage realm, and you are a Saint King powerhouse.
”The three of us join hands. Who in the Eastern Wilderness is our opponent？”
The masked man laughed and said, “That’s true.”
At this time, Bai Xiucai asked, “Master, Ye Wushuang is here. Do you want to see him? If you don’t want to see him, then I…”
”See！ Of course I want to see him！” The masked man said, “I also want to see what means the guy who can kill my five Saint-Slayers has？”
”Let’s go. You all come with me to meet him.”
After saying that, he got up and was about to leave.
“Wait a minute.” Lei Gang stopped the masked man and said, “Master, can you promise me one thing?”
The masked man took a look at Lei Gang, guessed the latter’s thoughts, and asked, “Do you want me to leave Ye Wushuang to you？”
To be able to predict the future, truly worthy of being the master. This subordinate admires.” Lei Gang flattered, and then said, “That’s right, I want to avenge my dead brothers.”
The masked man said, “I think it’s because your hands are itchy？”
Lei Gang giggled stupidly.
”Alright, I’ll hand Ye Wushuang over to you later, but you also have to promise me one request.” The masked man admonished, “Don’t smash him to death with a few hammers.”
Lei Gang hehe laughed and said, “Don’t worry, master. There’s no need for a few hammers. One hammer is enough.”
