Chapter 266 Can I Take a Car With You
A few days passed, and it was the day when the Tiandou Empire's promotion team went to Wuhun City, and it was also the day when the wanted murderer Shi Nian was executed.
The execution time for Nian was chosen at 12 noon, and the executioners tied him to the pillar in the center of the execution ground early.
As one of the only two empires on the mainland, the Tiandou Empire naturally has the means to subdue the Soul Saint. After all, in this extraordinary world, order cannot be maintained without power.
It's still nine o'clock in the morning, but the execution ground, which was rarely visited by people in the past, is now full of onlookers. Most of them just sit silently in their seats, looking at the very haggard and unconscious man in the middle of the execution ground with red eyes.
.
According to the interrogation conducted by the Tiandou Empire a few days ago, Can Meng has killed no less than fifteen young talents over the years. These are only the targets he remembers, excluding other children he affected in order to torture and kill these children.
Since the behavior in the previous years was very covert and no bodies or evidence were left behind, almost all of these children were treated as missing.
It wasn't until Fan Yun caught him and "forced" the Tiandou royal family to interrogate him that his crimes were exposed to the public.
On the execution ground, there are many couples who are not too old but have gray hair on their temples. Most of them are parents who have lost their children. Their parents and relatives are often sitting next to them.
Most of them are soul masters, not weak in strength. They came to the execution ground today not only to witness the death of their enemies with their own eyes, but also to protect the execution from accidents.
Xue Qinghe, who was standing under the shadow, also understood their thoughts.
To be honest, even when he was about to be executed, he still couldn't relax.
The news that Fan Yun had left Tiandou City had spread throughout Tiandou City a few days ago. The dark thoughts that had been suppressed in the hearts of those powerful people might surface again.
The soul master's methods are ever-changing. Even though Xue Qinghe had already confirmed Shi Nian's true identity when he was escorting him to the execution ground, he was still able to prevent other people's methods.
After all, a soul saint who relies on himself to live in the shadows, even if he has some cruel "hobbies", is still a very good subordinate and dead soldier for some powerful people.
Xue Ye also thought of this situation, so in addition to deploying royal knights to see off the participating colleges, he also deployed some knights to Xue Qinghe to ensure that the execution would not go abnormal.
The smooth conduct of this public execution is the best result for the Tiandou Empire.
Therefore, Xue Qinghe came to the execution ground this morning with the people who escorted him, just to prevent someone from changing people midway.
Sitting in a room at the execution ground, Xue Qinghe was surrounded by several Soul King-level knights guarding him. Even the royal enshrinement Dugu Bo was temporarily assigned to Xue Qinghe by Xue Ye and now follows Xue Qinghe.
Not only to protect the safety of Xueqinghe, but also to prevent night sickness.
The view of this room is very wide. Sitting in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, Xue Qinghe can not only clearly see Shi Nian bowing his head in the middle of the empty execution ground, but he can also observe the slightest change in the surrounding environment. Any abnormal behavior of anyone will escape.
But his eyes.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the execution time at 12 noon was getting closer and closer.
It is summer now. The sun is blazing in the sky at noon. The strong sunlight and high temperature shine on the execution ground. Not only does Shi Nian in the center of the execution ground twist his head to avoid the sun, but many spectators who come to watch the execution also start to support themselves.
Parasol to protect yourself from the sun.
For a time, a large number of parasols were opened, blocking the view of the Xueqinghe River in the room, and many small movements in the audience were unknown.
Frowning, Xue Qinghe turned around and waved to a knight behind him, whispered a few words in his ear, and then motioned for him to go out.
Then he stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, staring at Shi Nian in the center of the field.
"Your Majesty Dugu, please pay attention to Shi Nian in the field below, and be sure not to let him be rescued by others."
Dugu Bo, who was leaning against the wall, opened his eyes, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, and looked down.
"Um."
Just as the time was getting closer and the undercurrent in the execution ground was gradually surging, a spectator who was unexpected by everyone suddenly appeared outside the execution ground.
Following the guidance of the waiter, Salas sat in a very eye-catching position in the execution ground, which could be said to be a place visible to everyone in the execution ground.
Sitting on the chair, the huge parasol blocked the sun that was trying to embrace Salas, while Salas looked at the many people in the field and waited for the arrival of others.
After all, there are two positions next to him.
After a while, Xue Qinghe and Dugu Bo, who was wearing a dark green robe, also arrived. Dugu Bo just nodded to Salas, and then sat in the seat furthest away from Salas without saying a word.
Look at the time below.
Xue Qinghe smiled at Salas after sitting down.
"Thank you for your hard work, Archbishop. I have to trouble you to make a trip."
Shaking his head slightly, Salas just said: "Your Highness Xue Qinghe doesn't need to say that. After all, it was our Wuhun Palace Cardinal who arrested him personally. If someone really replaces him, what will happen to our Wuhun Palace?"
It’s not a good thing to say.”
In the auditorium of the execution ground, under the cover of many parasols, a person suddenly approached another person next to him:
"Is it still being implemented as planned?"
The person being asked frowned and was silent for a while, and finally spoke:
"Cancel it. Xue Qinghe and Salas are here, and Dugu Bo is also here. According to the original plan, we should not be able to get out of this execution ground."
"What if the master blames me?"
"No, if the owner knew the situation at the scene, he would not blame us for our decision."
"OK."
The sun is shining brightly in the sky, and noon has arrived.
"Ah! Ahhh!"
The screams continued. In the audience, a short and stocky man saw that the execution had officially begun. After confirming that the victim was Shi Nianhou, he finally nodded and left the execution ground.
Zhao Wuji once swore that he would never let his students be harmed again, but in this competition, if Fan Yun hadn't arrived in time, Tang San would have been poisoned by the murderous hands of that year...
If he had insisted on accompanying Tang San back, he would never have fallen into such a crisis.
Zhao Wuji could not forgive himself for almost causing a catastrophe.
Therefore, at least Shi Nian's execution must be witnessed with his own eyes to ensure that this evil man's life ends.
As the execution began, several birds that had been staying near the execution site for a long time spread their wings and flew away.
…
Outside Tiandou City, a long team was walking along the official road. Many Tiandou royal knights in white armor were guarding both sides of the team.
This is the team from the Tiandou Empire going to Wuhun City to compete.
Outside the carriage of Blazing Academy, a short-haired man wearing the uniform of Kamikaze Academy suddenly drove a horse to the side of a carriage and said to the man and woman inside through the open window:
"Huo Wu! I remember you promised me before that as long as I defeated Tang San in the promotion match, you would give me a chance to pursue you!"
"Does this still count now?!"
Feng Xiaotian was riding on horseback, turned to look at the red-haired girl with her eyes closed in the car, and asked loudly.
After defeating Tang San, Feng Xiaotian went to Blazing Fire Academy twice to find Huo Wu, but each time she said that she had other things to do and could not see him for the time being.
When the young man was very sensitive, Huo Wu's attitude made Feng Xiaotian very entangled and uncomfortable. So today, when Huo Wu was definitely there, Feng Xiaotian wanted to ask Huo Wu clearly about his attitude.
"Of course it counts."
Huo Wu opened his eyes, put his hands on the window sill, supported his delicate face, and looked at the boy with serious eyes outside the car, smiling at the corners of his eyes.
Although he had warned himself in advance not to be manipulated by this girl again, when he saw the bright smile on Huo Wu's face, Feng Xiaotian felt that his heart was still beating violently.
.
"As for your boyfriend, have you really considered me in your heart? If you really don't have feelings for me, I will leave voluntarily and will not bother you again. But please give me a right word.
I don’t want to keep guessing like this anymore.”
Feng Xiaotian finally suppressed the beating heart in his chest and said these words that had been buried in his heart for a long time.
Although it is an indisputable fact that he likes Huo Wu, he, Feng Xiaotian, also has his own dignity and integrity, and is not a tool that can be used to come and go easily.
"Of course, Feng Xiaotian, you are indeed my number one candidate for a boyfriend now."
Huo Wu flipped up her red hair beside her ears, smiling like a flower.
"Then, as your boyfriend candidate, can I ride in the same car with you?"
Feng Xiaotian said seriously.
