Quickly Wear the Face of the Devil

Ch. 66

Gao Lang was anxious to immediately kill Qi Xiujie, but the imperial edicts stated that he should be executed the next day, if he killed him early, he'd be charged with non-compliance. But yesterday, he deliberately went to the prison and told the prison official that Qi Xiujie should be killed early tomorrow morning. The prison official knew the height of his position, so they didn't dare disobey.

The next morning, when the sun had yet to rise, the prison official made the two executioners bring Zhou Yun Sheng to the execution gate.

"The day has not yet brightened, the yang sheng is less than the yin sheng. If you two do the execution at this time, when I go to the spring, I will come back to interfere with you two." Zhou Yun Sheng kneeled on the slab but wasn't panicked.

The reason the ancients beheaded at noon to three was because the yang sheng was strong, when the prisoners turned into devils at that time, their spirit would be scattered by the yang and they would not be able to retaliate against the executioners. Currently, the sun was down and the temperature was cold, the atmosphere was inexplicably gloomy.

The ancients believed in these spirits, they really feared that killing him at this time will attract a devil, so the two executioners glanced at each other and decided to wait till the sun rose.

Zhou Yun Sheng looked up to the sky, it was quickly brightening. Li Jin Tian had rough dreams, he should now be awake. Yes, those two dreams were an illusion implanted in Li Jin Tian's brain by him. Gao Min was a straight-laced, blunt person; rebellion, adultery, betrayal and other scandals were against his nature.

But what about it? Gao Lang had murdered hundreds of his family members, and Gao Min also secretly poisoned Qi Xiujie, destroying his body. Qi Xiujie had such ​​deep hatred for Gao Jia that could only be satisfied by equal destruction. Zhou Yun Sheng has always said that if the protagonist didn't provoke him, he wouldn't take the initiative to provoke them, but if the protagonist attacked him, he could only pay them back a hundredfold.

Not only will he not die by Gao Jia's hands- Li Jin Tian, Gao Min, and their son, the future Emperor, Li Xu Yan, will all be ruined by his hands. Since he's occupying Qi Xiujie's body, he will achieve Qi Xiujie's wishes perfectly.

Zhou Yun Sheng was lazy, he enjoyed slacking, but he was very professional and dedicated when it came to perusing revenge.

The sun slowly rose and broke through the clouds, the two executioners saw the hour and opened the jar of liquor, then drenched the blade in it. They raised it up high....

"Wait! Wait! Hold the knife!" An anxious voice stopped the steel knife in the nick of time, the two executioners turned to look at the voice's owner and kneeled down, trembling.

"Slave see the Emperor, the Emperor, long live, long live!"

"Get away, it's not yet the time, who told you to execute?" Li Jin Tian was furious, he kicked at the two people on the ground.

"Please Emperor, this was Lord Gao Lang's order, we slaves had no say!" The executioner kowtowed.

Gao Lang? Li Jin's face sank for a moment, he was getting an ominous feeling. If they could even openly defy his orders, what else could Gao Jia do? Qi Jia was known as the most prestigious family in Da Yanguo before they were uprooted, yet Qi home was always cautious and respectful in front of him. Gao Lang was not nearly as humble as they were.

Not to mention the way Gao Min treated him. When he's happy, he'd maybe give him two nice sentences, when he's unhappy, he'd directly drive him away. He never gave him the respect the Emperor should have.
