Stranger Danger

Illuminating Sin was a headsman when he was still alive. He had beheaded 99,999 heinous criminals with his beheading saber. Sharp beyond measure, his beheading saber could behead anything, even the head of a ghost and god.

The sinfire covering the saber was a natural spiritual flame that took form after a heinous criminal was killed. It burned anyone bearing sin and karmic hindrance. The sinfire would never fade unless the victim’s sins and karmic hindrance were completely gone.

A human must possess sin and karmic hindrance so long as they existed in the red dust. Not even the Chief Libationist was an exception.

Therefore, the Chief Libationist let out a muffled grunt when he was enveloped by the sinfire. He seemed to be in so much pain that the fingers he used to catch the blade were loosening a little.

Illuminating Sin did not miss the opportunity, of course. He broke free from the Chief Libationist’s control, gripped his saber with both hands, and swung it at the Chief Libationist’s neck.

He was going to behead the man.

Thang!

However, a metallic clang resounded when the beheading saber that could behead anything made contact with the Chief Libationist’s neck. It managed to leave a faint imprint, but that was it. It could not push even an inch deeper.

“You’re not good enough to take my head yet.” As the Chief Libationist declared this, righteous qi pushed out and dispelled the sinfire enveloping his body. Then, he pressed his fingers together and drew a horizontal line in the air like they were a brush.

Illuminating Sin’s senses warned him of danger, so he did not hesitate to abandon his saber and retreat. At the same time, the sinfire enveloping his person formed a barrier in front of him.

However, the single line could not be stopped by anything. It easily cut through the raging sinfire and behead Illuminating Sin.

Illuminating Sin had beheaded countless people in his life. He never thought that he would be beheaded by another after he became a ghost and god.
