Chapter 239: Execution of an Entire Family

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After Chu Qingzhi and Tang Jinghong left the forest, they rushed straight to the Heavenly Snow Mountain.

Halfway there, they suddenly heard the sound of fighting. The two of them stopped to take a look.

The mountains here were undulating, and the vegetation was lush. The battle was at the foot of the mountain, about ten meters away from the road. Five men in black were besieging a woman in black.

The woman in black was quite skilled, but there were several wounds of various sizes on her body. The speed of her sword was getting slower and slower, and she was already exhausted.

“You’re no match for us. Surrender!”

“In your dream! You bunch of lackeys of the Lord of the Northern Border. You caused my family to be destroyed. You’ll die a horrible death!”

“In that case, don’t blame us for being merciless!”

The men in black’s attacks became more and more fierce, and the woman in black was clearly in danger. She watched as a sword was raised and about to pierce through her chest…

Suddenly, the sword that was raised high was sent flying. Then, five leaves flew over. They were so fast that they turned into flying knives and killed all the men in black.

This was naturally Chu Qingzhi’s doing.

Firstly, she could not bear to see the woman being bullied. Secondly, she heard that the men in black were the lackeys of the Lord of the Northern Border. She never showed mercy to her enemies.

The woman in black looked at the men in black who had fallen to the ground and was stunned. Then, she looked in the direction of Chu Qingzhi and Tang Jinghong.

She knelt on one knee and bowed with her sword in her hands. “Thank you for saving me.”

Chu Qingzhi flew over. “Miss, you are welcome.”

Ge Lihua stood up and said gratefully, “Thank you again, Young Hero. If not for you, this would have been my burial ground.”

Chu Qingzhi went straight to the point. “Why did they want to kill you?”

Ge Lihua’s beautiful eyes immediately turned red, and tears rolled down her face.

“My family bought a mountain five years ago. I don’t know where the Lord of the Northern Border found out that there was an iron mine in the mountain, but he forced our family to hand over the mountain.”

“My grandpa didn’t want to, so the Lord of the Northern Border wanted to kill my entire family.”

“I escaped when they came to catch my family, so the killers chased me all the way here.”

Chu Qingzhi and Tang Jinghong looked at each other. Chu Qingzhi asked, “Could the mountain your family bought be the Heavenly Snow Mountain?”

Ge Lihua shook his head. “Heavenly Snow Mountain is located at the border of the northern border and An Huai Kingdom. It’s not allowed to be sold. Moreover, Heavenly Snow Mountain is worthless. Even if it can be sold, no one will buy it. However, the mountain my family bought is not far from Heavenly Snow Mountain.”

Chu Qingzhi thought to herself, It seems that only the Lord of the Northern Border and some higher-ups know that there is an iron mine in the Heavenly Snow Mountain.

Chu Qingzhi asked with interest, “Are you sure there’s iron ore in the mountain your family bought?”

Ge Lihua shook his head. “I’m not sure. After all, it’s just hearsay. There’s no evidence.”

Chu Qingzhi said, “The Lord of the Northern Border started killing because of something groundless?” This fake Lord of the Northern Border was really crazy for money!

Ge Lihua said mockingly, “1 don’t know what’s wrong with the Lord of the Northern Border. He only cares about money these few years. How can he not be tempted by an iron mine?”

The fake Lord of the Northern Border must be planning to collect as much money as he could and run away with it. Even if he had the ability to govern the northern border, he wouldn’t be bothered to.

Chu Qingzhi looked at Tang Jinghong and said, “Miss, we have something urgent to do. Farewell.”

Ge Lihua knelt down and begged, “You’re very skilled in martial arts. Can you help me save my family? As long as you’re willing to help, I’m willing to tell you the real location of the mine.”

Real location of the mine?

Since they weren’t in a hurry to go to Heavenly Snow Mountain, Tang Jinghong thought for a moment and said, “Okay.”

Ge Lihua almost cried tears of joy. “Thank you, young heroes.”

The three of them immediately rushed to the city.

In the northern border city.

It had been a long time since an entire family was executed in the northern border. At this moment, when the people in the city heard the news, they all rushed to the market to watch the execution.

At this moment, the market was filled with people. Entering this place was like falling into mud. It was difficult to walk.

In an empty space in the middle of the market, there were more than two hundred people from the Ge family. From Old Master Ge, who was in his sixties, to three-year-old children, they were all wearing dirty prison uniforms and kneeling there.

Perhaps they had already accepted the fact that they were going to die. Everyone lowered their heads and knelt there to wait for death. No one cried. It was dead silent.

The five executioners stood at the side, holding big sabers in their hands. The sabers reflected the sunlight and looked terrifying.

On the high platform sat a fat official. He was the governor of the northern border city, Lord Liang.

He sat there leisurely, looking at the sun in the sky from time to time, waiting for the right time to give the order to execute.

There were countless people surrounding the execution platform.

Wu Yaqing was also among the crown. She glanced at the children and revealed a sympathetic expression.

What did children know? Why did they have to kill the children too?

“The Ge family is kind and charitable. They often help the poor. Why do good people have to die?”

“There are no laws in the Northern Border at all. With a word, the Lord of the Northern Border can kill anyone he wants.”

“Do you want to die? How dare you say that?”

The commoners discussed in low voices. They were quite indignant, but they did not dare to complain loudly because they were afraid of the Lord of the Northern Border.

“Begin the execution!” Lord Liang glanced at the sun above his head and finally gave the order.

The five executioners immediately raised their saber and slashed down.

Their movements were practiced. They cut them one by one like cutting melons. Blood splattered three feet. The rolling heads fell to the ground like melons, leaving a trail of blood.

The commoners turned their heads away, not daring to watch this cruel scene.

The soldiers were numb. When they saw this scene, they were expressionless. Some even frowned and secretly complained that the executioners were too slow.

Five executioners, five heads at a time, ten heads twice, fifteen heads thrice…

Blood quickly dyed the execution platform red. The blood meandered on the ground and finally gathered into blood puddles that soaked into the soil…

Wu Yaqing covered her eyes and did not dare to look anymore. She had been pampered since she was young and had never seen such a bloody and cruel scene.

This process lasted for a long, long time…

When Chu Qingzhi and the other two arrived, it was too late. They had all been killed!!!

Seeing this scene, Ge Lihua was so sad that she let out a heart-wrenching cry. In the end, she fainted from grief..
