Execution Day
On the day Qi Yaoji and Gu Huaiwei were executed, both cultivators and mortals flocked to the gates of the Flowing Light Sword Sect to witness the execution.
The matter of witnessing the execution was something Sang Ying had discussed with the others long ago. The execution platform was set up outside the mountain gate so that more people could see the fate of these two notorious criminals.
Although Sang Ying loathed the two men, she had no intention of humiliating them. Since both of them had once possessed the Heart of the Devil God and gods and were once cultivators, ordinary punishments would probably not be enough to kill them.
After much deliberation, Bai Nianchou decided to offer up the Dragon Race's Devil-Refining Fire.
The blazing flames crackled in front of the mountain gate, their intense heat felt even by those furthest from the execution platform.
When Gu Huaiwei and Qi Yaoji, both wearing shackles, appeared, a commotion immediately arose from the crowd.
As the two of them walked past the crowd, someone started throwing all sorts of rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs at their heads.
After his conversation with Sang Ying, Gu Huaiwei seemed to have lost his soul, and no news from the outside world could affect him.
Qi Yaoji was different; even in her most tragic times, she had never suffered such humiliation.
With her head covered in foul-smelling egg yolk, she glared fiercely at those who had thrown things at her. But at that moment, no one was afraid of her; the only response to her gaze was an even fiercer counterattack.
Qi Yaoji had no choice but to be dragged to the execution platform by the disciples escorting her, where she would soon die as a heinous criminal.
Before Gu Huaiwei was thrown into the sea of fire, he begged the cultivators around him to let him see Sang Ying one last time.
But Sang Ying, who loathed him to the extreme, was naturally unwilling to let him have his way. No matter what he wanted to say to her, Sang Ying wanted Gu Huaiwei to disappear forever with this regret.
The time for execution arrived quickly, Gu Huaiwei finally lost all hope. He was pushed into the fire like a puppet and was quickly engulfed by the flames.
Qi Yaoji screamed and refused to comply.
But at this moment, she was no match for the cultivator's power and was easily pushed into the fire.
The moment her screams faded away, Sang Ying saw many people and cultivators in the crowd silently kneel down and weep bitterly.
In this calamity, neither Gu Huaiwei nor Sang Ying won, because the dead can never come back to life.
After all, they were once Devil Gods, Devil-Refining Fire burned for seven days and seven nights before it completely incinerated them.
When their presence completely disappeared, Little Heavenly Dao, who was being held in Jiang Zhuoxue's arms, suddenly opened his mouth, as if he had swallowed something.
After He had happily finished chewing, He even let out a satisfied burp.
The Sang Zheng couple, who had now begun to refer to themselves as Little Heavenly Dao's maternal grandparents, immediately became nervous, fearing that Little Heavenly Dao might have eaten something wrong and gotten an upset stomach.
Although Sang Ying didn't quite understand why a Heavenly Dao like Him would have a stomachache.
Having dealt with the two culprits, Sang Ying then focused on merging the two worlds.
Yue Tianze did not immediately return to the Cultivation World from the Beastmen World, because too much time had passed, and many of his old friends had either perished or ascended to higher realms.
He considered himself a man who had been dead for many years, and those who would have been saddened by his death had long since passed through their initial grief. Yue Tianze felt that going back now would not cause any trouble, so he might as well stay in the Beastmen World.
Sang Ying did not force him, but asked him to provide some assistance to the monks after they arrived in the Beastmen World.
The world inhabited by Beastmen is indeed a great treasure. The Cultivation World modified their Cultivation Method and sent them to the Beastmen World.
Herbs that had previously been considered useless in the Beastmen World were also sold to the Cultivation World.
It must be said that these herbs are truly effective; even the well-informed Nan Gurong was impressed by their amazing medicinal spirit medicine.
She even took the initiative to lead a group of medical practitioners to the Beastmen World, where she taught the Beastmen how to practice medicine and built a medicinal garden to develop new elixirs.
The Beastmen of the White Lion Tribe possess formidable physiques, becoming dozens of times stronger after they begin cultivating. Leveraging this advantage, they have reached agreements with numerous Body Cultivation Sect to assist their disciples in their cultivation.
Now he's actually earned quite a few Spirit Stone.
The slightly weaker Calling Deer Tribe already had a high affinity for Wood Element Spiritual Power, so they simply founded the first medical cultivation sect in the Beastmen World and even mingled with Nan Gurong and others.
The Minglu Beastmen helped them accelerate the growth of medicinal herbs, and in return, they were to teach the Minglu Beastmen how to refine elixirs.
To this end, Sang Ying also helped find some gentle spiritual fire for the Calling Deer Tribe to form a pact, so that these Beastmen could master the secrets of alchemy more quickly.
The Beastmen living on the far northern glaciers are easier to deal with. They are very similar to Jiaoren, beautiful Beastmen with human upper bodies and fish lower bodies. Although they do not have the same powerful combat strength as Jiaoren, they are more or less related to Jiaoren.
Upon learning that there was an Endless Sea in the Cultivation World teeming with Demon Beast, and that the overlord of the sea was Jiaoren who resembled them, this group of aquatic Beastmen immediately migrated to the Cultivation World.
Fortunately, Jin Liner, who had lost her only sister, was very welcoming to the aquatic Beastmen. She not only took them in but also taught them cultivation methods.
The group of aquatic Beastmen quickly settled down in the Endless Sea, and thanks to Jin Liner's protection, they lived even more happily than they had in the Beastmen World before.
When this news reached the Beastmen World, many small tribes considered migrating, which even led to a period of integration and exchange between the two worlds.
Moreover, the newly awakened demon Demon Race in the Beastmen World was quickly and properly taken care of, after all, the Demon Race had suffered considerable losses in the earlier calamity.
As the new Demon Emperor, Helian Mo learned that many new demons had emerged in the Beastmen World, so he took the initiative to go there and bring these Demon Race under his command.
Speaking of which, when Sang Ying first returned from the Beastmen World, Helian Mo was eager to see her.
However, Sang Ying was too busy with other things at the time, so she refused his requests to see her every time.
This time, Helian Mo finally encountered Sang Ying in the Beastmen World and once again expressed his desire to meet her.
When the news arrived, Jiang Zhuoxue was holding Little Heavenly Dao and watching Sang Ying deal with messy affairs.
After listening to the report from her subordinates, Jiang Zhuoxue said nonchalantly, "Go ahead, I'll stay here and watch over Little Heavenly Dao."
In that instant, Sang Ying keenly sensed that the Beastmen came to deliver the message was looking at her with a strange gaze.
In the end, Sang Ying still went to keep the appointment; after all, some things should be clarified face to face.
