Chapter 524 Qingming (1/2)
Wen Zhong, who was tied up by the heavenly cables, laughed, ”Dear Emperor, why the rage? It was just a short acquaintanceship with them.
Emperor Xia said, ”Take him out.”
Regardless of what it was, Emperor Xia did not want to see this person anymore.
The Royal Guards took Wen Zhong to the Meridian Gate and the muscular men of the Xia Tribe were standing by. The flag of Xia Kingdom was waving under the merciless scorching hot sun that shone down on the Meridian Gate.
Wen Zhong was calm and submissive as the guards escorted him. He thought to himself. ”Master said that I will have to endure the trials of blade and fire. Looks like I have to face the trial of the blade today.”
Emperor Xia's heavenly cables were a class of its own. Only people like Shen Lian or Tianyi could break free from it in a short amount of time. Moreover, it would also suppress one's mana. Regardless of how powerful a person could be, he would only be a piece of meat after being bound by the heavenly cables.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click visiting.
However, Wen Zhong was born with a sense of heroic generosity. When stuck in a difficult situation, he would remain composed and take things easy. The Royal Guards picked up his energy and were feeling so uncertain that they did not dare to utter a single word.
Wen Zhong was pushed to the execution stage as the scorching hot sun poured down from the sky. The Royal Guards may be exceptionally strong but they felt uncomfortable with the heat.
The executioner took out a dragon-like chopper with a pair of wings attached to it that was obviously a replica of Yinglong. The air was intense and filled with killing vibes.
The executioner very skilfully asked, ”Any last words?”
Wen Zhong laughed out loud, ”There is nothing to be bothered about life and death. But I am destined to do something big and I would not die here.”
The executioner smiled and responded coldly, ”No extraordinary being has survived the decapitation at the Meridian Gate and you too would not be an exception.”
Wen Zhong smiled without saying a word.
The executioner rubbed his palms against each other and heat started to emerge from his palms like a soldering iron. He forcefully pushed Wen Zhong's head down on the chopper and groaned. His voice shook the atmosphere as the chopper split into half.
A white mark emerged on Wen Zhong's neck and he was fine.
The executioner yelled, ”Somebody inform the Emperor that this person has mastered the Death Proof Body!”
He then took a pair of heavy hammers that would produce blue lightning when they hit together and aimed it at Wen Zhong's body. Thunderous sounds could be heard and every strand of Wen Zhong's hair stood still.
The heavenly cables started to fall apart and turned into ashes.
Wen Zhong let out a laugh and opened his mouth to allow the current of the lightning to enter his mouth and stir up his mana. The executioner presumed that the power of Thor's Hammer would numb Wen Zhong's body but it turned out that he was not afraid of the current and actually absorbed the current to break free from the cable.
A groan could be heard coming out from the Xia Palace as a ray of white light dashed out and shielded Wen Zhong. The light then spun and a human head landed on the ground.
The white light dispersed to reveal a black demonic blade. Once the blade sensed that there was no more vitality in Wen Zhong, it flew back towards the Xia Palace.
Everything happened in a split second.
Wen Zhong's skull landed a few feet away from his body, his eyes were shut and there were faint traces of green Qi in between his brows.
The executioner took a deep bow towards the direction of Wangcheng and took a sip of liquor and spit it on Wen Zhong's skull. A long fire dragon then came out and wrapped the skull.
