2549 Tell Me, Where Is Qiao Nian?
The Statue of the Goddess in Freedom Square looked down at the people solemnly. In the Goddess’ hand was a pure white cross.
Lu Zhi was hung high on the cross as if he was receiving God’s punishment!
The weather in March was refreshing. Under the blue sky, the square was filled with gray pigeons flying down to find food. It was peaceful and comfortable.
The hundreds of people in the square were silent.
Everyone looked up at the man hanging high up in the air. They were all stunned.
Did he really do something wrong?
Did this person offend the royal family?
Outside the square, some spies from the forces who had heard the news and saw this scene hurriedly replied to their masters.
“He’s been hung.”
“Yes, it should be the Empress’s order. I saw Lord Shadow.”
* * *
In the middle of the square.
The person from the reclusive families handed the leather whip to the man in black with both hands. “Lord Shadow, this is the whip you wanted.”
Lord Shadow expressionlessly took the horsewhip from his subordinate and cracked it in the air to test the feel of it.
Bam!
The horsewhip tore through the air, making a fluttering sound.
Those in the square trembled and their bodies involuntarily shivered at the sound. It was as if the whip had hit them, and they could already feel the pain.
Lord Shadow walked under Lu Zhi and raised his head. There was no emotion in his calm eyes. He said softly, “She came to the square to look for you.”
“I didn’t see her.” Lu Zhi’s body was as weak as paper as he was hung on the cross, as if he would disappear into the light at any moment.
His legs were crippled, and he had almost no room to resist.
This was the most embarrassing moment in his life!
And that person had seen it!
Lord Shadow did not waste any time with him and said concisely, “She has slapped the face of the reclusive families this time. The Empress can spare her life for your sake, but she has to accept punishment.
“Call her out. As long as she’s willing to kneel down and admit her mistake in public, the Empress intends to let her off. This way, you don’t have to suffer.”
“Ha.” The corners of Lu Zhi’s mouth curled up. His smile was gentle and charming, but his eyes were filled with malice as he stared at him. “Do you dare to kill me?”
Lu Zhi tilted his head and looked at him as if he was not afraid of death. “Try killing me if you dare. I won’t call her out! Besides, I don’t see her.”
Lord Shadow quickly said, “Sorry.”
Then, he composed himself and looked away. His eyes became firm. He raised the whip in his hand high and whipped Lu Zhi ruthlessly.
“Bam!”
The whip struck Lu Zhi’s back like it was tearing it apart.
Blood seeped out from his back and quickly dyed his white shirt red. It was as if a flower had bloomed on his white shirt.
“Where is Qiao Nian?” Lord Shadow asked him expressionlessly.
“Tsk.” A trace of blood seeped out of the corner of Lu Zhi’s mouth. However, the corner of his mouth curled up. He closed his eyes and put on an uncooperative attitude.
Lord Shadow whipped down again.
Only his cold voice could be heard in the square as he questioned Lu Zhi again and again, “Where is Qiao Nian?”
No one in the square spoke. The only answer was him hitting Lu Zhi. The sound of the whip cutting through the air was heard.
Lord Shadow could tell that Lu Zhi was stubborn. After whipping him a few times, he instructed his subordinates, “Bring the salt water.”
“Yes.” His subordinates could not bear to watch and quickly went to do their work.
