Li Chang'an took the blood-written letter and slammed the gavel on the table: "The evidence is conclusive. Chen Da, execute the criminal Yan Shifan by slow slicing with 120 cuts."
Upon hearing this, Chen Da excitedly took the knife and walked over.
"Waaaaah..."
Yan Shifan looked at him with extreme fear on his face. His trouser pocket was soaked, but his mouth was bruised and he couldn't utter a word. He could only let out muffled screams.
