Qin Kewei, after being captured, also enjoyed the treatment of a prisoner. She was bound to a chair made of alloy, unable to leave it for eating, drinking, or relieving herself. Soon, her body became dirty and foul-smelling.
Because Qin Kewei was a very powerful ability user, ordinary people were no match for her. Moreover, Qin Kewei could use earth遁 (earth escape), allowing her to find a place to escape whenever she was on the ground. Therefore, the families in Taiyuan did not dare to underestimate Qin Kewei and insisted on keeping a constant watch on her for twenty-four hours to prevent her escape.
This kind of treatment was actually the same as what Yue Hengyi had received. When he was captured, he was tightly bound to a specially designed platform. Any slight anomaly would result in the injection of a tranquilizer, rendering ability users unable to control their bodies.
Being tied to a chair was not the most unbearable thing. What Qin Kewei found most unacceptable was that her entire body was now filthy. After all, she had been eating, drinking, and relieving herself on the chair for days, and the amount of filth on her was immense. A single sniff could reveal a strong stench.
Although Qin Kewei was no longer living a life of luxury, she was still a woman and liked to be clean. Now that her whole body was covered in dirt, she could not accept this treatment.
"It's nothing to die, but I haven't fully avenged myself yet. This is my greatest regret, not being able to kill these bastards and not being able to avenge myself and little Yue!" Qin Kewei thought to herself.
Since Yan Jing was destroyed, Qin Kewei had lost her will to live. No matter where she went, she would not be accepted by others. In a fit of rage, she had once leveled Yan Jing, harming too many people. Back then, Yue Hengyi had only killed a few thousand people, yet he was considered a devil. Qin Kewei's actions were even more excessive than Yue Hengyi's. Therefore, even if she wanted to live, she could only do so by changing her name and hiding her identity.
Later, Qin Kewei finally thought of something she could accomplish: revenge. The Tianlong Bureau had been destroyed, but the people on Mount Lüliang had not yet received their due punishment. Thus, Qin Kewei's target was to eliminate these harmful individuals. However, now that she had been captured, she could no longer seek revenge. As a demoness like herself, she was unlikely to receive any rescue.
Therefore, Qin Kewei could only silently endure the torment inflicted by her enemies, waiting for the day of her execution, when she would finally be liberated!
While imprisoned, Qin Kewei could constantly hear many curses. These voices came from outside, and the bright lights shone directly overhead, making it impossible for her to sleep. Her eyes became increasingly red and swollen, and her spirit was severely tormented.
After an unknown period, Qin Kewei suddenly heard an angry voice: "Qin Kewei, today is your day to die. Prepare yourself for the city wall!"
Qin Kewei struggled to look up and saw an unfamiliar man in her cell. She then said, "If you want to kill me, then kill me!"
The man waved his hand, signaling for Qin Kewei to be taken out. Someone immediately stepped forward, holding their nose, pushing the chair, and saying, "This is also an ability user? She's really too smelly!"
"Nonsense, who would clean her body? Her pants must be full of excrement and urine!" someone next to him explained.
"What a smelly woman. How could anyone like someone like this?" others began to mock Qin Kewei without restraint.
A group of people then led Qin Kewei towards the city wall. As she passed through the streets, countless people cursed her. After Yan Jing was destroyed, many survivors had fled to Taiyuan, so many of these refugees harbored deep hatred for Qin Kewei.
"You wicked woman, you killed so many people in our family. How dare you still be alive?"
"Qin Kewei, you devil, you deserve to die without a burial place!"
"Dying like this is too easy. Why don't you go to a club, so those who resent you can vent their anger anytime!"
People continuously cursed Qin Kewei, spewing all sorts of vulgarities. Qin Kewei did not become too agitated upon hearing their voices. She had already heard all sorts of scolding, and being cursed now was unavoidable. If she hadn't pushed down the walls of Yan Jing back then, she would undoubtedly be a worshipped hero now. But now, she was merely a sinner. The people by the roadside paid no attention to Qin Kewei's past merits; they only wanted to see her die.
Someone, it's unclear who, started throwing garbage. Then, people began to throw large amounts of rotten vegetables. Although Qin Kewei was in the vehicle and these vegetables couldn't land on her, people continued to throw them, as if venting their resentment.
Qin Kewei was brought to the city wall, where cameras were already set up. The cameras were pointed at Qin Kewei, indicating that the execution process would be the same as Yue Hengyi's, killing her in front of the entire world.
A large crowd had gathered below the city. They were shouting loudly: "Kill her! Kill her!"
These roars could be heard from afar. Countless people were watching the impending execution, most of them waiting for Qin Kewei to be beheaded and then applauding.
On the distant city tower, Chen Xintie was watching the crowd below and said to his brothers, "At this time, those who intend to disrupt the execution should be appearing soon. Be vigilant in all areas. I heard that Shen Feng has also arrived in the north. He might descend from the sky, so be careful of the skies."
"That's for sure. We've heard before that Shen Feng is the strongest in the world. If he really appears here, then we'll have to prove with our strength who is the strongest in this world!"
"In my opinion, although Shen Feng has long been famous and must have some ability, we haven't exposed our strength in normal times. In a real fight, our chances of winning are greater."
It turned out that this execution was also part of a plan. Taiyuan had gathered over forty ability users, representing accumulated strength that had never been revealed before. Now, it seemed, this was Taiyuan's opportunity to gain fame.
Everyone was full of confidence, believing they had already won. However, Chen Xintie was not as relaxed as his brothers. He had clashed with Shen Feng at sea before, and Shen Feng was already very powerful then. Now, Shen Feng was the world's only Rank 8 ability user. He had never publicly displayed his strength after becoming a Rank 8 ability user. If Shen Feng were to appear this time, he worried that his abilities would not be enough to deal with Shen Feng.
"We can only take it one step at a time. Taiyuan is our home ground. I don't believe that over forty ability users can't kill Shen Feng," Chen Xintie thought to himself.
The most unexpected thing for Chen Xintie was that Shen Feng had actually come to the north. This meant that Taiyuan would face a formidable enemy. This guy was the world's only Rank 8 ability user, and Taiyuan had not obtained any evolution crystals, so no one could break through the evolution barrier. The strongest ability users here were only Rank 6.
"Prepare for execution!" the execution officer in the distance suddenly announced loudly, immediately eliciting a wave of cheers from the crowd.
Everyone waited, anticipating Qin Kewei's beheading, which would also alleviate their hatred.
But at this moment, the radar suddenly detected an unidentified flying object. Although its speed was slow, it was heading towards Taiyuan.
"There is an unidentified flying object approaching Taiyuan. Its speed is not very fast. Should we shoot it down?" Suddenly, at this moment, astonishing news came from the distance. An unidentified flying object was approaching in the sky.
"No matter what this thing is, shoot it down immediately!" Chen Xintie quickly issued his order.
Upon hearing this, the people below immediately launched missiles. These were short-range missiles designed to shoot down any unidentified flying objects in the vicinity.
Next, the execution on the execution ground would continue. This extremely wicked woman must be killed.
But suddenly, a voice emerged from the crowd: "Thunderous Might!"
Following this voice, a massive bolt of lightning appeared from the crowd. This lightning struck the city wall almost instantly, then split into fine arcs. These arcs precisely hit every person on the city wall, causing them to fall to the ground.
This sudden and bizarre attack from the crowd immediately startled the surrounding people. They scattered, revealing Jin Zijue hiding among them. People in the distance shouted loudly, "The enemy has entered the city! Run quickly!"
Many soldiers on the ship had fallen to the ground, most of them having fainted. However, many were unfortunately electrocuted to death. Qin Kewei saw the people around her falling. Although she was unable to move freely, she guessed who was rescuing her through this special attack method.
"Jin Zijue, do you really want to be Shen Feng's lackey for your entire life? If you surrender to us, we will give you generous treatment. You can have whatever you want, even your own city, which would be easy to obtain. Why risk your life for Shen Feng?" Chen Xintie, upon discovering that the enemy was Jin Zijue, immediately began to persuade him, seemingly wanting him to defect.
The conditions offered by Taiyuan were very generous and undoubtedly had a fatal attraction for many ability users. Most people would agree quickly. However, Jin Zijue now saw the true nature of these families. For the prosperity of their own families, they were constantly scheming against others, disregarding the lives and safety of ordinary people. Such a force was too cruel and should not exist in this world.
Therefore, Jin Zijue said indifferently, "It's also simple to make me surrender. Defeat me first! However, I want to test my strength after becoming a Rank 7 ability user. After I defeat you scoundrels, I will announce your crimes to the world."
"Since you are obstinate, then don't blame me. Everyone, attack below indiscriminately!" Chen Xintie said with a cold smile.
At this moment, there were still many people in the crowd below. A sudden attack would inevitably harm many innocent civilians. However, Chen Xintie seemed to care not at all. He was willing to resort to any means to achieve victory.
More soldiers soon appeared on the city wall. It was clear that these soldiers had been ambushed, anticipating that someone would come to disrupt the execution. At this moment, the soldiers began to attack without hesitation.
Chaos erupted in the crowd below. People cried out and ran, but the city wall continuously fired bullets. If hit by bullets, people would be mowed down like wheat, their lives extinguished, and they would fall to the ground lifeless.
Jin Zijue had not expected this to happen. He thought he would be very safe hiding in the crowd, but he never expected the other side to be so insane as to attack indiscriminately, not even caring if they harmed their own people.
