Their vision began to blur, the world was losing its color, and they suddenly felt incredibly tired.

Consciousness sank into the abyss.

Silently.

……

Rustling.

……

The cracks stopped appearing.

……

"They've all fallen... Never mind!"

……

Ning Rongrong suddenly opened her eyes, panting heavily.

She's back.

The previous scene was still echoing in her mind, but Ning Rongrong felt the familiar soul power aura and knew clearly that she had returned to the familiar continent.

only--

The cold touch pressed against the back of her neck, and the rough smell of wood shavings filled her nostrils.

The blinding sunlight made her vision blurry, and she could only vaguely make out the crowd of people below and the indifferent or excited unfamiliar faces.

She found herself forced to kneel on a rough wooden platform, her neck wedged in an arc-shaped groove, and above her head hung a huge guillotine with a blade that gleamed with a chilling light.

Chapter 217 The Guillotine

guillotine?

What rare thing is this?

Ning Rongrong's mind went blank for a moment, and her consciousness was instantly pulled back to this absurd reality.

The intense dizziness had not completely subsided, but what confused her even more was the scene before her.

Where is this place? Is it still within the territory of the Spirit Hall, or somewhere else?

And why am I here?

This question popped into Ning Rongrong's mind.

Then, her consciousness cleared up a little more, and she remembered more of what had happened.

When she vaguely saw the scene of another world, she could vaguely hear some of Qian Daoliu's words in this world.

Ok……

Ning Rongrong felt that she probably knew what had happened.

After the eight black flames gathered, the world underwent a strange change.

Meanwhile, the people who were still conscious on the field at that time—Gu Yuena and Poseidon—had their consciousness pulled into another world after hiding for a while. At the same time, they were unconscious and in a very weak state in this world.

And just then, Qian Daoliu woke up.

Upon seeing the three of them unconscious, he would certainly be very puzzled. However, given Qian Daoliu's eccentric personality, he would definitely not act like a gentleman. He would surely take advantage of their illness to kill them. Therefore, he would definitely have designs on the three of them.

However, at that time, Qian Daoliu's strength should not have been enough to kill them, and he could not guarantee that the attack would not awaken them.

As long as Qian Daoliu retains basic rationality, he will not attempt to attack.

And the fact that she is alive and well here now is proof of that.

Therefore, Qian Daoliu's final decision must be to arrest them.

That's about it.

The above content had already appeared in Ning Rongrong's mind.

After speculating about what had happened during this period, Ning Rongrong suddenly became curious again.

Since she's here, where are the other two?

She slightly turned her eyes and scanned her surroundings.

She saw Qian Daoliu beside her, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan members who were gloating and aiding the enemy in the sidelines, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School members, including Ning Fengzhi, who were hiding in the shadows and were in a state of utter panic...

However, neither Gu Yuena nor Poseidon were seen.

Ning Rongrong closed her eyes and began to sense things again.

Her mental strength is not weak now, and with the added power of the black flames, sensing individuals is still a breeze.

She quickly located their positions.

Gu Yuena was hidden in her shadow.

Poseidon had already woken up ahead of time and was far away from the Spirit Hall's location.

"Ah……"

Ning Rongrong gasped.

So, she was the last one to wake up, and the least prepared one.

So, in the end, Qian Daoliu only left her behind.

What a useless fellow! He can't even keep someone who's unconscious and weak. What else can Qian Daoliu do?

Ning Rongrong couldn't help but think.

Having thought it through, she focused her attention on what Qian Daoliu was currently talking about.

That was probably a statement about her crimes.

Ning Rongrong thought for a moment, and realized that Qian Daoliu seemed to have mentioned before that he wanted to put her in the public eye and put her on trial.

It seems that we are just going through the motions right now.

Ning Rongrong also heard about those charges.

There are quite a few varieties.

Stealing, deceiving teachers, willingly falling into depravity to become a saintess of the Holy Spirit Cult, contributing to the creation of a cult, assassinating the Pope, and so on and so forth—

Some of the charges that Ning Rongrong did not quite agree with.

Ning Rongrong had no idea why Qian Daoliu had such a vivid imagination, because in her mind, these things had never happened.

Any point raised can be refuted with a few words.

For example, this theft.

As the legitimate daughter of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, what reason would she have to steal? Whom would she steal from? What would she steal? It couldn't be money, could it...?

Oh, Black Flame, huh? Fine, I'll accept it.

Next up, the fraudulent teacher.

She had few teachers, or even, strictly speaking, no teachers at all.

After all, the rule is that a person can only have one master.

Those who helped her could only be considered as her elders who gave her guidance.

Since there was no teacher involved, there was no need to talk about deceiving the teacher. Moreover, even if we were to be more lenient, Ning Rongrong didn't know who Qian Daoliu was referring to.

She didn't know how Qian Daoliu knew things that she didn't.

We can't just assume she defrauded the teacher simply because she concealed her identity as a member of the Holy Spirit Cult, can we?

Next up, the Holy Spirit Cult's Holy Maiden...

Ning Rongrong was speechless after hearing this.

Even she herself didn't know she was a saintess of the Holy Spirit Church.

The last time I heard this word was probably when another candidate for sainthood mentioned it to her.

But she never knew about it, nor did she acknowledge it.

The Holy Maiden can communicate with the Holy Spirit, but she cannot; therefore, she is not the Holy Maiden. D.E.

Thinking of this, she suddenly remembered Zhu Zhuqing. Zhu Zhuqing was the one who had completely completed the Saintess ritual, and in theory, she should be the Saintess. However, judging from her appearance, she didn't seem to have communicated with the Holy God, so—

She was not actually a saint.

However, it wasn't a big problem, and she didn't want to dwell on it.

……

To assassinate the Pope.

If we had to pick the one with the most solid evidence among these charges, it would have to be this one.

Although it wasn't her intention to assassinate Bibi Dong, but rather Qian Renxue's plan to use her to force Bibi Dong to hand over the Black Flame, unfortunately, before the play was even over, Qian Daoliu arrived.

Hey……

We have to accept this, since the assassination did happen later.

Ning Rongrong thought to herself, "I remember throwing that knife at Bibi Dong back then."

Just as Ning Rongrong was complaining, Qian Daoliu's sentencing was finally coming to an end.

“These sins are too numerous to count. Today, I will execute you by beheading right here. All members of the Holy Spirit Cult present, come out now, and I may spare your lives.”

In an instant, the Soul Masters from the Spirit Hall and its close allies erupted in a cheer.

Ning Rongrong was speechless.

The audience's reaction was as if she were really going to die there today.

But she never considered that possibility.

This thing... can kill me?

She felt the guillotine blade behind her.
