Chapter 299 How Did the Executioners Come About?
"Absurd!" Broken Bones trembled. "How could Her Highness the Goddess be wrong!"
Then began a long, drawn-out rant: "Her Highness the Goddess has the hearts of all living beings, rescues wandering souls, pities the world, and is both gentle and powerful..."
He kept muttering things like, "How could Her Highness the Goddess commit a crime?"
While Suigu was speaking, Yun Qingyi quietly surveyed the dark place.
Since she wasn't immediately kicked out, Yun Qingyi was able to stand there for a while longer, her eyes gradually adjusting to the surrounding darkness.
Gradually, as time went on and with her Nascent Soul stage cultivation, Yun Qingyi's vision became clearer and clearer.
She looked up slightly, slightly curious, towards the direction of the shattered bones.
She was slightly taken aback at just one glance.
This……
The executioner was in mid-air, but not as she had imagined. At first, she thought that the Bonebreaker was like other powerful beings, standing on the void and looking down on her.
totally unexpected……
Yun Qingyi looked at the shattered bones in mid-air. At this moment, he was disheveled, his clothes were tattered, and he looked rough and dirty. His limbs were completely nailed to an invisible wall. The places where the bone nails were nailed were already rotten, revealing the white bones.
His body was bound with heavy iron chains to further immobilize him, leaving only his head free to move.
Yun Qingyi: "..."
At this moment, Sui Gu, who was still chattering away, keenly sensed that something was wrong. He turned his head slightly, and his sharp eyes met Yun Qingyi's.
"Not bad, little girl, you actually managed to see me. You're quite strong for your age." Broken Bone's voice was rough, yet frivolous and mocking.
Seeing that Yun Qingyi didn't speak, he laughed twice more and continued, "What, are you scared by me?"
Yun Qingyi shook her head slightly and said, "Isn't Senior an executioner?"
Sui Gu raised an eyebrow, knowing that Yun Qingyi wanted to ask why he, a dignified executioner, was being treated in this way, nailed to the wall.
But it was also quite surprising, after all, Yun Qingyi had previously called herself the judge: "What, little girl, don't you know where the executioner comes from?"
"I..." Upon hearing this, Yun Qingyi paused. She really didn't know about the Myriad Sins Sect that she had learned about through the mirror before, but at that time, time was limited and she was only thinking about learning about the Ice Soul Goddess, so she naturally overlooked it.
"Didn't you call yourself the Judge? Little girl." Seeing that Yun Qingyi didn't say anything, Suigu narrowed his eyes. "You really did lie to me, didn't you?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Qingyi's expression turned cold again. "I have no reason to lie to you, and why should the judge necessarily know?"
Hearing Yun Qingyi's words, Suigu raised an eyebrow. "Indeed, the judge may not necessarily know, but..." At this point, Suigu stared straight at Yun Qingyi, "This is common sense, because the executioner is the sinner whom the judge once sentenced to the hell of sinners."
"Is that so? No wonder..." Yun Qingyi looked at the thick iron chains on Sui Gu's body again, feeling somewhat surprised.
"What? You're admitting you lied?"
"Huh? What lie are you telling?" Yun Qingyi didn't react for a moment.
Upon hearing this, Broken Bones' eyes turned piercing. "Of course, it's about you calling yourself the Judge."
"I have no reason to lie." Yun Qingyi's voice was cold. Since the other party had spoken to this extent, she didn't want to be polite either. "Instead of trying to interrogate me here, why don't you go ask your Goddess?"
As she spoke, her voice became playful: "Or perhaps you already believe what I said, but don't want to admit the truth?"
"You..." Shattered Bone, feeling embarrassed by having his thoughts exposed, turned his head to the side, his rough, messy long hair swinging back. "So what if it is? Besides, what you're saying is too outrageous, can't I question it a bit?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Qingyi raised an eyebrow. "Sure, of course."
"Hmph!" Suigu snorted coldly, no longer looking at Yun Qingyi or speaking to her.
Yun Qingyi's lips twitched. She hadn't expected such a childish scene. She carefully examined the broken bones. Now that it was quiet, it seemed a little lonely. Its whole body was nailed to it, and it seemed that it had gotten used to it. It just moved its head from time to time.
After a while, just as Yun Qingyi was racking her brains trying to figure out how to get through this punishment, Sui Gu spoke.
"Little girl, tell me what's going on, and I'll let you move on to the next punishment." After calming down for a while, his tone was noticeably calmer.
Just as he wished, his heart leaped with joy upon hearing Broken Bones' words, but he remained outwardly calm, saying indifferently, "Really?"
"Words are not enough; I need a strong guarantee."
"Hey! You little rascal, you're really cunning." Although he was complaining, Shattered Bone still managed to send a beam of light onto Yun Qingyi with a thought.
Yun Qingyi felt a warm sensation in her body, as if something was flowing inside her.
"This is a contract," said Broken Bone. Seeing that Yun Qingyi's expression changed slightly and she became wary, he explained, "It's just a simple contract. Once you complete the contract, it will automatically be fulfilled. In other words, you just need to tell the whole story properly, and once you're done, you'll be directly teleported to the third level of punishment."
After the light on her body dissipated, Yun Qingyi sensed her body. There was indeed a special contract power in her divine sense, but she could also clearly feel that it did not pose any threat to her. Seeing this, she relaxed a little and put away the vigilance in her eyes.
“Since you’re so interested, I’ll tell you the whole story from beginning to end,” Yun Qingyi said.
She recounted the whole story, including why she had judged everyone and which level of the hellish inferno they had been sent to, but Yun Qingyi still concealed some special details.
For example, why she came here, and the true nature of her arrival at the Myriad Sins Sect—it was just an experiment. After all, it wasn't something that needed to be known to the other party; the less she revealed, the better.
From the moment Yun Qingyi began speaking, Suigu listened attentively, his expression shifting rapidly with each sentence she uttered—one moment shocked, the next astonished, and then a hint of admiration. Finally, he looked at Yun Qingyi with a complicated expression, unsure of what to say.
"Yes, I've finished speaking. It's just as you heard." Yun Qingyi's face remained expressionless as she looked calmly at Sui Gu.
“You… I misunderstood you.” Broken Bone’s face showed rare admiration. “You are really amazing. I think no one else could have done what you did, sending themselves into this terrifying eighteenth level of hell for the sake of getting closer to so-called fairness.”
“Most people are selfish and greedy.” Shattered Bone looked at Yun Qingyi with complicated eyes. “And you… I always feel that you are not human.”
"Hmm?" Yun Qingyi slightly raised her eyes to look at him.
“You are closer to the legendary god.” Shattered Bones spoke slowly. “Although the Ice Soul Goddess is also a god, she only appears cold and emotionless on the surface.”
"And you... are the complete opposite of her. You seem to have all the emotions and desires of the world, but your heart is colder than anyone else's."
"Cold-hearted?" Yun Qingyi raised an eyebrow. This was a very new adjective to her, because no one had ever thought of her as such.
"Prioritizing love over trivial matters, isn't that cold-hearted?" Suddenly, Broken Bones reverted to his previous rough and lazy demeanor, chuckling in a low voice with a teasing tone: "Little girl, those who like you are in for a lot of trouble."
"Alright, you can go now!" As soon as Sui Gu finished speaking, before Yun Qingyi could ask anything, a flash of light appeared, and everything went black. When she woke up again, she found herself being roasted over a raging fire.
Yun Qingyi: "!!!"
what's the situation? ?
