The Statue of Liberty Square looks down upon all the people in the square solemnly, with a white cross in her hand.
Lu Zhi was hung high on the cross, as if he was accepting God's punishment!
The weather in March is clear and crisp. Under the azure blue sky, the square is full of grey pigeons flying down in search of food, creating a peaceful and comfortable atmosphere.
The hundreds of people in the entire square were silent at this moment.
Everyone looked up at the man who was hung high up, and they were all stunned.
Is this... a real crime
Did this person offend the royal family
Outside the crowd in the square, some spies from some powerful forces who had heard the news were watching this scene and quickly reporting back to their masters.
"The man was hung."
"Yes, that should be the Queen's intention. I saw Lord Shadow."
*
The very center of the square.
The man from the Hidden Family handed the whip made of top-grade leather to the man in black with both hands: "Master Shadow, this is the whip you asked for."
The man in black took the whip from his men with an expressionless face, whipped the air, and tested the feel of it.
Snapped!
A leather whip soaked in water tore through the air, making a rustling sound.
Hundreds of people in the square all trembled in their hearts when they heard the sound of the whip hitting the ground. They shuddered involuntarily, as if the whip that Shadow had just swung out was hitting them. The pain was imaginable.
Shadow walked to the bottom of Lu Zhi, raised his head, and said softly with a pair of calm eyes without any emotion: "She came to the square to look for you."
"I didn't see it." Lu Zhi was hanging on the cross, his body was as weak as paper, as if he would disappear in the light at any time.
His legs were disabled and he had almost no room to resist.
This was the most embarrassing moment in his life!
But that person saw it!
Shadow didn't waste time talking to him and said simply, "She has slapped the face of the Hidden Family this time. The Queen can spare her life for your sake, but she must accept the punishment."
"Call her out. As long as she kneels down and admits her fault in public, the Queen will let her go. That way, you won't have to suffer." "Heh." Lu Zhi raised his mouth, smiling gently and charmingly, but his eyes were staring at him sinisterly: "Do you dare to kill me?"
"… "
Lu Zhi tilted his head to look at him, seemingly not afraid of death: "If you dare to kill me, try it. I won't help you call the person out! And I didn't see her either."
Shadow said quickly, "I'm sorry."
Then he calmed himself down, stopped looking at Lu Zhi, his eyes became determined, he raised the whip in his hand high, and whipped Lu Zhi hard.
"Snapped!"
The whip lashed at Lu Zhi's back like a tearing knife.
Red blood oozed out from his back and quickly dyed the white shirt red, as if a flower had bloomed on the white shirt.
"Where is Qiao Nian?" Shadow asked him expressionlessly.
"Tsk." A trace of blood seeped from the corner of Lu Zhi's mouth, but the corner of his mouth was raised, and he closed his eyes, showing an attitude of non-cooperation.
Shadow whipped him hard again.
His cold voice was the only one in the square, questioning Lu Zhi again and again: "Where is Qiao Nian?"
No one spoke in the square. The only answer to him was the sound of him hitting Lu Zhi, the whip cutting through the air.
Yingzi probably saw that Lu Zhi was being stubborn, so he whipped him a few times and ordered his men, "Go get the salt water."
"Yes." The subordinates couldn't bear to watch and hurried to do their work.
