Two treasure maps

Chapter 180 4 Sin Whip

The moonlight faded quietly, and the eastern sky turned a faint pale pale.

When the first rays of morning sun fell on the bluestone slabs of Oriental Plaza, people gathered from all directions.

Unlike usual, they gathered not for small talk or business, but to witness an unusual scene.

The scene was similar to yesterday, both were for punishment, but the one who was bound yesterday was the fake Guo Lingli who was to suffer thunder punishment, while the one who was to be bound today was her master, the Fire Protector Le Xiaoyao, who was to suffer the whip of sin.

Many followers of the Eastern Palace who had received the news were already waiting around, their hearts filled with resentment. It turned out that their originally comfortable lives had to be risked for their lives because of this Fire Protector who had defected from the Southern Palace.

And at midnight yesterday, a dishevelled figure was tied up next to the stone pillar in the square. He was the Fire Guardian Le Xiaoyao.

The Fire Protector, who was so majestic yesterday, now looked ashen and was tied tightly to a newly repaired stone pillar, looking extremely embarrassed.

Overnight, he went from being a free man to a prisoner.

His eyes were full of confusion and anger, as if he wanted to question this sudden change.

It turned out that Guo Xinghai, the old man who was heartbroken last night because of the murder of his grandson, was still brooding over Zheng Yan's escape. He was burning with anger and made a suggestion to the Eastern Fairy Boy, claiming that the Fire Protector Le Xiaoyao was originally a subordinate of the Southern Fairy Boy Zhang Bugao, and that he pretended to defect to the Eastern Fairy Boy Nong Xueer, but in fact he had ulterior motives and intended to harm him.

Guo Xinghai spoke with certainty and listed all of Le Xiaoyao's crimes: offending the Green Lion Buddha and taking away the girl with the aperture, as well as the fake Guo Lingli killing Guo Jingchuan, all of which were inextricably linked to him.

The Eastern Fairy Nong Xueer lost the management rights of the Hundred Fruit Garden that he once cherished because he was punished by the leader. In anger, he ordered Le Xiaoyao to be tied up and taken to the Oriental Square to receive severe punishment.

This punishment is called "the whip of sin". Unlike ordinary whipping, this whip of sin does not act directly on the body, but instead extracts the spirit from the body and whips it.

Although there are no visible scars on the physical body, the spirit will be severely damaged, causing cultivation to regress and even make it impossible to practice again.

The Eastern fairy girl Nong Xueer judged that the number of lashes was forty. After these forty lashes, I am afraid that Le Xiaoyao's cultivation would stop at the third heaven, or even fall back to the second heaven or the first heaven.

It is the greatest punishment for cultivators.

Le Xiaoyao had never expected that he just wanted to use the fake Guo Lingli to lure out the whereabouts of the real Guo Lingli, but he ended up causing such a terrible disaster.

He originally wanted to find the Green Lion Buddha to explain the matter of the aperture girl. He believed that the Green Lion Buddha would not make things difficult for him in public for the sake of his master, the Fighting Buddha Sun Wukong.

What he didn't expect was that before he had the chance to apologize to the Green Lion Buddha, he was sued by his own clansmen who had sent a message hoping to save Guo Jingchuan.

This is really ironic!

Moreover, Guo Xinghai clearly knew that it was he who sent the message to him, asking him to come and rescue his grandson Guo Jingchuan.

He arrived too late and failed to save Guo Jingchuan, but instead took out all his resentment on himself.

Le Xiaoyao couldn't help but sigh: human heart!

It's rare that I showed compassion, but this is the result I got.

You must be careful in the future and stay out of things that do not concern you.

The moment of execution finally arrived.

The Eastern fairy boy Nong Xueer walked up to Le Xiaoyao with a light column whip in his hand, and he wanted to carry out the execution himself.

He also wanted to know whether Le Xiaoyao was truly surrendering?

He raised the whip high up and then swung it down fiercely.

As the spirit whip fell, Le Xiaoyao's body began to tremble uncontrollably, as if an invisible force was drawing the spirit out of his body.

Dongfang Xiantong asked loudly, "You! Are you really willing to surrender?"

The corners of Le Xiaoyao's mouth curled up with a hint of coldness, "Does Dongfang Xiantong still care whether I surrender sincerely? Aren't you here for the 'Ghost Sorrow Pill'?"

Dongfang Xiantong thought about it and realized that he still needed his "Ghost Sorrow Pill" and it was not good to expose his feelings.

He handed the spirit whip to Ling Mo, the eagle guardian beside him.

Ling Mo was once the leader of the New Demon Cultivation Hall. With his powerful strength, he was spotted by the Eastern Fairy Nong Xueer and taken under her wing. He had no connection with Le Xiaoyao.

During the Battle of Pingjiang Grand Canyon, Fire Protector Le Xiaoyao was the last to arrive and had not yet fought with the others, so he had no grudge against Fire Protector Le Xiaoyao.

However, if there was a chance to eliminate one of the guardians around Dongfang Xiantong and make himself the only one in power, he would not miss this opportunity.

His methods are not as gentle as those of the Oriental boy, who would ask questions clearly. For him, beating is enough.

After one spiritual whip was struck, Le Xiaoyao became dazed and his body trembled, as if he could no longer maintain his human form.

Everyone held their breath and stared at the scene.

Le Xiaoyao's body gradually became transparent, and a red demon dragon slowly emerged.

It turns out that Le Xiaoyao is actually a demon, and his spirit is actually a demon dragon!

This scene stunned everyone present.

They never thought that the Fire Guardian, who looked gentle and elegant on weekdays, actually hid such a mysterious identity.

At this moment, Le Xiaoyao had lost his former majesty and power, and only a weak demon dragon spirit was left struggling in the air.

Ling Mo smiled faintly, with a slight arc on the corner of his mouth, and swung the whip again. Not to mention forty whips, he could let it cut off the path of cultivating immortals with just four whips.

As the spiritual whip was swung, a red light slowly rose from Le Xiaoyao's spiritual body and gradually condensed into a red demon dragon.

It exuded a fiery aura, as if it was about to set the entire square on fire.

Ling Mo was frightened because he saw the symbol of Flame Mountain. This demon dragon was the disciple of the fake monkey on Flame Mountain!

No one in the demon world is not afraid of him!

He doesn't care about your background. Once you provoke him, he will destroy your nest and kill your entire family.

His grandfather Ling Yuantian once warned him that if he saw the fake monkey on the Flaming Mountain, he should never provoke him. It would be better to sacrifice some interests to make friends with him than to let him find fault and develop a revengeful heart.

After another blow of the spiritual whip, Le Xiaoyao felt that his body was hurt, but his spirit was unharmed.

He frowned. Was this Eagle Guardian Ling Mo showing mercy?

Guo Lingli received a notice early in the morning that the management of Baiguo Garden had changed hands and was now under the control of Southern Fairy Boy. As a member of Eastern Fairy Boy, she naturally lost her position as the director of Baiguo Garden.

She was confused and found out after asking around that Le Xiaoyao had been executed. She immediately rushed to Oriental Plaza with Yin Jing.

When she saw the blood dripping from Le Xiaoyao's demon dragon, an inexplicable fear surged in her heart.

The blood burned in the air like a blazing flame, emitting a strange light.

Suddenly someone in the crowd shouted, "The blood of the demon dragon is a treasure!"

This shout was like thunder, exploding among the crowd.

Everyone came to their senses and took out various magical instruments to catch the blood dripping from the evil dragon.

Just when they were about to succeed, Dongfang Xiantong snorted coldly. Everyone suddenly felt a powerful pressure coming and had to return to their seats in embarrassment.

The Eastern Fairy Boy walked up to Le Xiaoyao's demon dragon spirit, stretched out his hands, formed seals and chanted a spell, gently merging it back into Le Xiaoyao's body.

Looking at Le Xiaoyao's bloody body, he knew that Eagle Protector had shown mercy, but he didn't say anything. After all, he still needed Le Xiaoyao to provide the "Ghost Sorrow Pill".

Le Xiaoyao opened his eyes, scanned the people in the square, and his gaze finally stopped on Yin Jing and Xu Tianqing.

If anyone else was affected by this incident, it would be them.

He actually wanted to make friends with Leng Xing's friends. After all, Leng Xing showed him kindness, but now...
