Ye Ling looked at them quietly, without any fluctuation in her eyes, as if the people in front of her were not her people, and she did not respond to their words.
Seeing her like that, the old man who was speaking frowned, and turned to look at the people from the other families ten meters behind him, and said, "Everyone, we are already here, just waiting for midnight to light the fire!"
The eyes of the other families flickered when they heard this, and no one spoke. The patriarch of the Song family looked at Ye Ling deeply, and finally walked forward and sighed: "Ye Ling, Yiping went out to find a doctor for you and hasn't come back yet. Since you got into trouble, he couldn't stay here anymore and tried his best to cure you, but you know your situation yourself. If he could have been cured, you wouldn't have ended up like this."
"I am a father. I don't want my son to be ruined because of you. He didn't know that you broke off the marriage with him, and he didn't know that you were going to be burned to death. If you want to blame someone, just blame me."
Ye Ling, whose eyes were lifeless, welled up with tears when she heard Song Yiping's name. There was no emotion change on her face, but tears flowed involuntarily.
Many young men and women could not bear to see that tear, and they all turned their heads away. The woman who was once one of the most dazzling women in the eight hidden families has become like this now. Even if they were not close to her, they felt very sorry.
As time passed and midnight arrived, the family heads standing in front of their families looked up at the bright moon above their heads and their eyes fell on Ye Ling, who was wearing white clothes and white hair under the moonlight.
"It's midnight, light the fire!" An elder of the Ye family stood up and shouted.
However, the Ye family's guards hesitated. They looked at each other, lowered their heads at the same time, and did not move. They could not light the fire.
"Useless thing!" The elder snorted coldly when he saw this, snatched the torch from one of the guards, and walked forward.
"Tonight, I will light the fire myself!" He stood in front of Ye Ling holding a torch and said in a deep voice: "Ye Ling, you should be content to have me accompany you for a while."
As he spoke, he threw the torch in his hand towards the fire. The branches that had already been doused with oil quickly caught fire, making crackling sounds.
At this moment, everyone looked at the woman tied to the rack, and they all fell silent. No one said a word, no sound was made, they just watched quietly.
Burning a person alive is extremely cruel, but there is no other way. Who let her be possessed by an evil spirit? They did nothing wrong. They just wanted to put an end to the disaster caused by the evil spirit.
"roar!"
Suddenly, a roar of a beast containing powerful pressure sounded behind everyone. The powerful pressure contained in the sound made everyone's heart tremble, and they turned around and looked towards the source of the sound.
"What's that noise?"
"It's the voice of a ferocious beast!"
"No, this pressure should be from a beast of divine beast level!"
"But how come there are beasts of divine beast level in Qianling Mountain? What is going on?"
Just as everyone was distracted and looked towards the source of the sound, Feng Jiu flicked her finger in the dark, and a small cluster of flames fell into the burning flames and quickly burned...
