"you say."
"Although these men under my command are all the Grand Secretary's personal guards, I trained them all myself."
They are utterly loyal to me and have no other intentions whatsoever.
"After I die, I hope you will spare their lives."
Jiang Tian never expected that Yuwen Tuo would suddenly realize his mistakes before his death.
To err is human, to forgive divine.
"Then I'll have to see if they're worth letting go."
Yuwen Tuo nodded.
"Listen to me, all of you. If Lord Jiang spares your lives, you must repay him properly."
"If you're willing, Lord Jiang is also willing to take you in. Following him, you're sure to achieve great things in the future."
Upon hearing this, the prisoners nodded repeatedly, their eyes fixed on Jiang Tian.
"Jiang Tian, rekindle the flames on my body. This time, you don't need to pour water on me. Just burn me to ashes."
I took a look at Yuwen Tuo today; this guy is beyond saving.
Everyone has their own ambitions and serves their own masters.
Aside from the incident in Wolf Valley and this ambush, Yuwen Tuo wasn't all that bad.
"Huo Qubing, give him a quick and decisive end."
Huo Qubing nodded and threw the torch at Yuwen Tuo.
The fire reignited on Yuwen Tuo's body.
This time, Yuwen Tuo didn't utter a sound, nor did he struggle or roll on the ground.
The fire crackled and burned all over his body.
As the flames slowly died down, Yuwen Tuo's entire body was charred black.
Jiang Tian glanced at Pang De: "Young Grand Secretary, it's your turn this time."
Pound kowtowed repeatedly.
"Lord Jiang, you can't just believe one side of the story."
Yuwen Tuo, even on his deathbed, wanted to take someone down with him.
He's trying to sow discord between us.
"I had absolutely no idea about this."
Jiang Tian stun him with the stun gun in his hand.
Pound screamed as his body was sent flying five or six meters by the electric shock, crashing heavily to the ground.
"You bastard, you think I'm a three-year-old? Do you think I'll believe you?"
"Go in peace."
Jiang Tian ordered Huo Qubing to pour a whole bucket of flaming oil over Pang De's body.
Pound kept crying and begging for mercy.
"When snot gets into your mouth, you know to shake it off; when a car crashes into a tree, you know to turn; when a child is starving, you know the milk has come."
What the hell were you doing all this time?
You keep pushing my limits.
I gave you countless chances, but you didn't cherish them.
Jiang Tian drew his knife and held it to Pound's neck: "You can keep your head for now, but your body has to be burned to ashes."
But don't worry, I'll keep your head and have someone deliver it to your father, Pang Hao.
I will grind your body to dust.
Pound cried until his voice was hoarse.
Jiang Tie threw a torch at Pang De.
With a whoosh.
A raging fire engulfed Pound's body.
This guy was in excruciating pain.
He kept rolling and tumbling on the ground.
After burning for several minutes, Jiang Tian finally chopped the guy's head off with a single stroke.
"You lot, come here," Jiang Tian said to the prisoners. "You hand over Pang De's head to Pang Hao. I'll make him, the Grand Secretary, tremble with fear."
After I've traveled through the 16 countries of the grasslands, I'll go back and deal with that beast.
These prisoners had all followed Yuwen Tuo before, and they dared not disobey the orders Yuwen Tuo gave them.
These guys quickly grabbed a wooden box and put Pound's head inside.
"Let's go quickly."
"You must bring Pound's head to Pang Hao."
...
The capital city, the Pang residence.
Pang Hao was taking a nap in his study.
Suddenly, the guy woke up with a start.
Several maids quickly stepped forward.
"Master, what's wrong?"
"Master, were you dreaming just now? Look at all that sweat on your face."
Pang Hao nodded repeatedly, his heart pounding.
Just then, the butler came running in.
The butler tripped over the threshold and fell to the ground with a thud.
"How dare you be so reckless! What kind of behavior is this?" Pang Hao said angrily.
"My lord, something terrible has happened! Young master... young master..." The butler was holding a text message in his hand.
Pang Hao knew something was wrong as soon as he heard that. The steward was carrying a carrier pigeon.
"Young Master, what's wrong?"
"Young Master was burned alive by Jiang Tian, and his head was also chopped off. Jiang Tian has already ordered people to send Young Master's head back. Now Young Master's head is almost at the Great Wall."
Upon hearing this, Pang Hao felt a wave of dizziness wash over him.
He swayed unsteadily and fell to the ground with a thud.
Several maids quickly stepped forward.
"Master, wake up."
"Master, you can't be in any danger."
"Sir, are you alright?"
The maids pinched his philtrum, rubbed his chest, and patted his back.
It took the time it takes to drink a cup of tea for these girls to calm Pang Hao down.
Is the content of the message sent by carrier pigeon true?
"It is true, the young master has indeed been murdered."
Pang Hao burst into tears: "Jiang Tian, I am your sworn enemy! Order Li Chuang, Zhang Shicheng, Chen Youliang... to lead their troops and take over the three cities of Longcheng right now!"
Tell them that whoever can cut off Jiang Tian's head will be rewarded with five million taels of silver.
"Whoever can capture Jiang Tian alive will be rewarded with ten million taels of silver."
"Yes, sir, please accept my condolences. I'll get on it right away." The butler ran off.
"I'll accept my condolences. My son's head was chopped off. How can I swallow this?" Pang Hao angrily kicked several maids around him away. "You brats, get the hell out of here!"
Before Pang Hao could finish speaking, he fainted again.
News of Pang De's murder quickly spread throughout the Pang residence.
Upon hearing this, Pound's mother and his grandparents immediately burst into tears.
These old guys rushed towards Pang Hao while crying.
"You damned bastard!" Old Madam Pang swung her cane and smashed it at Pang Hao. "My grandson is so smart and clever, but you insist on letting him do those petty thievery things all day long."
Now look what happened, karma has come back to bite me, my grandson has been beheaded.
You bastard, what face will you have left in the future? Go see your ancestors!
"Your precious son is dead and not even left with a complete body?"
His head was chopped off, and his body was burned to ashes.
These old guys were crying and wailing all the while shouting curses.
Before they could finish cursing, all the old guys passed out.
Pang Hao was furious.
"Whoever leaked this information to my parents, find them and beat them to death! I will exterminate their entire family!" Pang Hao's hoarse roar echoed throughout the entire mansion.
