Chapter 2156
After hearing this, Dong Huang Taiyi flew into a rage!
"You… you're truly excellent!"
Emperor Jun's expression was also grim, but because he knew of the Tuwu Sword, he did not lose composure— for the Tuwu Sword had struck right at the heart of his desires.
But merely possessing the Tuwu Sword was far from enough to change the situation.
Moreover, Emperor Jun and Dong Huang Taiyi both sensed that Luo Fu, leading the Wu Clan, had found many things within Penglai Immortal Island.
All these things found belonged to the Wu Clan.
The Yao Clan still did not know how many miraculous treasures the Wu Clan now possessed.
Even if they had acquired these treasures, they would keep them as their final trump card, never revealing them, never letting the Yao Clan know.
This was their ultimate killing move!
If the Yao Clan and Wu Clan truly ignited their final great war, these would be the cards to turn the tide— as long as the Wu Clan wasn't foolish, they would never show them to anyone.
Emperor Jun coldly said, "Gui Che, do you know your fault?"
"Gui Che acknowledges his fault; please, my lord, punish me."
"Go receive three hundred Bone-Scraping Whips!"
"Yes!"
Upon hearing the name Bone-Scraping Whip, Gui Che's face turned pale, yet he still gritted his teeth and accepted the three hundred Bone-Scraping Whips— whether he could survive was uncertain.
But since punishment was necessary, it must be harsher still, or they would never remember.
Ji Meng and Fei Lian both pleaded for Gui Che.
"My lord, Gui Che is at fault, but this was all done by the Wu Clan—they used charms and poisons to cloud Gui Che's mind, causing him to commit such a grave error…"
"Enough!"
Dong Huang Taiyi shouted, "Even if it was truly the Wu Clan's doing, for him to be so easily deceived— do you think Gui Che bears no fault? Should he not be punished?"
Ji Meng immediately fell silent.
Fei Lian tugged Ji Meng's robe and said, "My lord is right— we must punish this, and Gui Che must endure all three hundred Bone-Scraping Whips."
At this point, they said nothing more, for all Yao Clan members were required to watch Gui Che's punishment on the Execution Platform.
The Execution Platform had not seen a Yao Clan member ascend in a long time— this time, Gui Che's ascent was unprecedented, for Gui Che was greatly favored within the Yao Clan.
"Is it truly Lord Gui Che?"
"Yes, I saw it— everyone must go to the Execution Platform to witness the punishment."
"Was this ordered by the Yao Emperor? What crime did Lord Gui Che commit to warrant punishment on the Execution Platform?"
"I don't know either— let's all go and see, shall we? Come on, come on!"
…
Although Gui Che was arrogant and tyrannical, among the Yao Clan's demons he was still immensely powerful, for the Yao Clan revered strength— Gui Che was truly formidable.
Yet his impulsiveness had led to this situation, and none could say otherwise.
All within the Execution Platform watched, and when the Bone-Scraping Whips were brought forth, every demon drew a deep breath.
"It's the Bone-Scraping Whip!"
"One lash feels like scraping bone— and the whip is studded with barbs soaked in chili water…"
"Wow, just imagining it makes us ache— can Lord Gui Che even endure such punishment? And three hundred lashes? This is inhuman!"
