Chapter 5 : A Regret Too Late
The Wuyang Palace Master, Grand Chancellor Liu was a ruthless man. He did not even bother to show Xie Jianyu's corpse any form of respect.
"Why would I keep that unlucky corpse here?" he said haughtily when Zhang Fengxi came to inquire about Xie Jianyu's body.
"I already sent the body over to the Execution Tower!"
Zhang Fengxi's face turned pale as soon as he heard the last two words.
Execution Tower, just as the name depicted, was the cursed place where all criminals of the Heavenly Realm realm faced their retribution.
Just like he previously proclaimed, the Grand Chancellor had ordered for Xie Jianyu's body to be cut up into a thousand pieces, burned, and for his ashes to be strewn from the highest level of the tower into the Human Realm.
Zhang Fengxi paced his mount, a giant spiritual tiger, to the Execution Tower as fast as the tiger could carry him.
Unfortunately, he was too late.
By the time Zhang Fengxi arrived at the tower, the white-robed officials with pointy white hats had just finished strewing the ashes. In their hands, they held empty wooden bowls that still smelled like ash.
The only item that remained was a prayer bracelet. Xie Jianyu wore it for almost his entire life.
In his rage, Zhang Fengxi ran amok. He went into such a violent rampage that the Execution Tower almost crumbled into pieces.
