Chapter Twenty-Three: The Scarlet Flame

The day of the execution is approaching soon, and the recent search for the remnants of the Liang family has become more and more popular, and after Liang Shutong returned to the imperial city, he was sheltered by a remote clansman of the Feicai General, so that he was not discovered.

September 16, the day of Liang Shangshu's execution. When he was dragged out of prison, he was stiff and stinky, and even if he died, he could not escape the fate of being dismembered. The executioner on the torture table was expressionless, preparing the torture equipment, and the audience was talking a lot, waiting for a good show.

Seeing that her father was innocent and wronged, and was framed by a traitor, Liang Shutong couldn't hold back her tears and rushed to the execution table, she had thousands of hatreds in her heart, but when she saw her father Liang Shangshu lying on the ground pale and silent, she only found that everything was irreparable except for kneeling down and shouting for her father in pain.

There was a dead man left, in order to lure the remnants of the Liang family to appear, and now that Miss Liang appeared, she was taken up by the executioner without saying anything. Xu Du, who was disguised in the crowd, was worried that she would be injured, so he immediately jumped out to rescue her without hesitation, not to mention that there were already killers arranged near the torture table, just waiting for them to appear.

A battle of swords and swords, Xu was scarred, his arms, chest, legs and backs were all traces of blood, even if he was injured, he had to protect Liang Shutong from being hurt by half of her, and most of the ambushed people were slashed by Xu Du, just when he grabbed Liang Shutong and jumped off the execution platform, tragedy appeared.

A spear suddenly flew from an unknown place, and in an instant it was inserted into Liang Shutong's back, straight through the heart, and time froze in an instant, there was no sound, no color, only fighting, whoever stood in the way would kill whom, Xu Du was like crazy, hugging Liang Shutong to break through the siege and pursuit, just when he was about to lose his support, the Kun Hades Palace Lord finally appeared and cushioned for them.

But at this moment, Liang Shutong is almost dying, due to excessive blood loss, she has gradually become unable to fall into a fog, but she refuses to close her eyes, her heart is pierced from the back, but she is unwilling.

"All guards...... Du Guard...... "She is already very weak, she wants to say a word to Du Guard before closing her eyes, when she fled to the southwest, she was still sulking with Du Hu, refusing to talk to him, and then they fled again, how many days and nights, she thought in her heart that Du Guard would suddenly appear, will take her away and fly away, away from all kinds of troubles, and even not to avenge the clansmen, only two people together, find a peaceful place, ordinary people live this life, no longer ask for anything, but it is always unfulfilled.

"All guards...... I can't go back, so it's good to die in your arms...... Don't avenge me, I want you to live well, promise me ......"

"You won't die, I'll save you." The guards were in tears, and Liang Shutong's injury hurt more than his broken leg in the school training ground.

But her breathing became weaker and weaker, her lips were silent, and the Kun Hades Palace Lord rushed over and hugged Liang Shutong at this time, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm late...... I shouldn't have let you come back alone......" He choked sadly and stroked her face, but her mouth trembled slightly, and she could not utter a word, and gradually her eyes closed.

Another group of pursuers had already arrived, and with the "Catch them all!" Although Xu Du didn't know the master of Kun Hades Palace, let alone what he had to do with the eldest lady, but since he came to the rescue just now at the execution ground, let's not worry about him, let's deal with these pursuers first.

Xu Du drew his sword and rushed into the group of pursuers to fight, the master of the Kun Hades Palace was completely deaf as if he was out of the matter, picked up Liang Shutong and left, his back was so gloomy and lonely, Xu Du was anxious, chasing him while killing, "Slow!" You can't take the big lady away! ”

The master of the Kun Hades Palace ignored Xu Du, and still walked by himself, Xu Du grabbed his arm and was not allowed to go, the eldest lady did not leave the cabinet, she was still a member of the Liang family, even if she was framed and robbed of the family, she would be buried in the tomb of the Liang family, how could she be taken away by an outsider, not to mention that the eldest lady was also the person on the tip of his heart, no matter what, she had to be buried decently.

The master of the Kun Hades Palace didn't care about this, he waved his long arm and shook off Xu Du, he already regarded Liang Shutong as his own person, whether she lived or died, she was up to him.

"None of you can leave! Surrender now and leave you all dead! The pursuers surrounded them again, and the archers formed them in a circle, and their wings could not let them run. The prime minister had already issued a death order, and the Liang family could not leave a single person alive, and only Xu Du was left at the moment.

These pursuers are really as hateful as flies, they can block Xu Du's retreat, but they can't stop the Kun Hades Palace Lord, I saw that he was holding Liang Shutong and suddenly took three steps and two steps into the air, and disappeared in an instant, he did not escape from the battle, but must save the person in his arms as soon as possible, and he will calculate this account when he turns around.

But after all, it's a step too late, and the gardenia half-immortal who can rejuvenate himself can't do anything. The master of the Kun Hades Palace had made up his mind that no matter who she was, he would protect her for the rest of his life, and he was finally in love. He brought Liang Shutong back to Wutong Garden, and planted Kun Ming Xuan Ice on her chest with his own hands, even if he exhausted half of his life and turned into ashes and dust, he still had to protect her prosperous appearance.

This hatred must be counted, after the master of the Kun Hades Palace came out, he killed the Prime Minister's Mansion alone, the wind and rain were dashing, overnight, the sword light and blood shadow, more than 100 lives in the Prime Minister's Mansion, none of them were spared, he couldn't stop killing in his hands like a demon, and even hung the Prime Minister's head on the city to show the public, and the hatred here, the sun and the moon were clear.

Since then, the master of the Kun Hades Palace has been called the devil by Kyushu, and the Kun Hades Palace, which never interferes in the government, has opposed the Kyushu court everywhere, and the Zongheng Qianmo, who was originally to explore secrets, has also become a murderous group that everyone fears. Since then, the world has not been able to live in peace, and everyone is afraid.

Xu Du escaped death, and after learning that it was the master of the Kun Hades Palace who took Liang Shutong away and killed the prime minister's family, he voluntarily joined the demonized Kun Hades Palace, he had nowhere to go, as long as Miss Liang was, he would be there, even if the Kun Hades Palace wanted him to do what he didn't want, he would never complain. When he was sent to the southwest to support the Quartet, he couldn't help but break into Wutong Garden on the night he left, just to see her, but he didn't expect it to be the last look.

Originally, the master of the Kun Hades Palace, who did not have such great ambitions, was pushed to the peak of the power of the underworld, some people were attached to it out of fear, some people came to admire, and the minions of the Kun Hades Palace gathered like a swarm of ants, they wanted to stand at the peak of the Kyushu Dynasty, become a human master, and control the entire rivers and lakes and the court. But in less than two years, the master of the Kun Hades Palace was tired of it, power, wealth and killing were not his pursuits, and the revenge he wanted to avenge had already been avenged, but the Kun Hades Palace could no longer turn back.

Gradually, he was like a walking shell, until the fire crow turned the words, and someone could bring the dead back to life, and the Kun Hades Palace Lord in a trance suddenly woke up, he believed that there were people in this world who would bring the dead back to life, just as he couldn't remember how long he had lived. He came to Linyuan Villa before the fire crow's people, just to see the water that came back to life with his own eyes, and see how lucky she was, even if it was just an excuse for the people of Kun Hades Palace to destroy Linyuan Villa, and then even if Kun Hades Palace wanted to retire for ten years, he was willing to wait for another lucky person to wake up.

Now that the beauty has dissipated, the hope of the Kun Hades Palace Lord has been disappointed again, he laughed and smashed the extinguished soul gathering lamp on the ice bed, there is still a year and five months before the ten-year period, he no longer wants to wait so ridiculously, and he no longer looks forward to the appearance of the Guangchen Mage, anyway, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter.

Just when the will of the Kun Hades Palace Lord was depressed, the fire crow, who was drunk after being injured by Banxia, began to recall some of the men of the Destiny Gate and the killers of the Zongheng Qianmo, they vowed to recreate the glory of the Kun Hades Palace eight years ago, and after this retreat and silence, the flames in their hearts burned even more vigorously.

The first thing they did was to rebuild the Xuanfang Tower, which was higher than the previous tower, and the lights were lit all night, they just wanted to tell the world that the Kun Hades Palace would be re-released and the debts that should be repaid would be repaid. The gate of the Kun Hades Palace did not open, but the previous disciples gradually began to return, and the Kun Hades Palace Lord did not care about all this, he just stayed in the Purple Cloud Hall all day long, and no one knew what he was doing inside, except for asking once before why he didn't see the water and boundless, and Yuxi had to report that she had fled, he never spoke to anyone again.

The fire crow didn't dare to enter the Purple Cloud Hall without an order, and he didn't even think about taking the position of the master of the Kun Hades Palace, he was just lonely to the point of despair, and he wanted this world to burn with him for a while, even if it was to make the world panic for a moment.
