today i died again

Three days later.

On the execution platform in the center, Cheng Erqing, whose shirt was stripped off, was tied to the execution frame in a standing posture with his limbs spread out.

An execution robot stood quietly beside Cheng Erqing, waiting.

Under the stage, surrounded by tens of thousands of people who came to watch the execution.

People from the four great families also came.Except for the Cheng family, the other three major families stood in the second row of the "audience auditorium".

The first row is naturally reserved for the king and his cronies.The Cheng family was among them.

"Host, hold on for another half an hour, and Xia Yu's side will be healed soon." The system warmly reminded.

"Half an hour? Although I haven't cut it yet, I guess it's only a few knives. I can't really give me three thousand knives piecemeal, right? So this time may be a bit troublesome." Cheng Erqing told the system analyzed.

System: "There is no 130 knives. But there are [-] knives—in short, this amount is what the people want, and the host has to be mentally prepared."

Cheng Erqing: "..."

Depend on!What the hell?Can't you "click" twice to save trouble?

"It's time for execution. I announce that according to Cheng Er's conclusion of guilt, with His Majesty's consent, the standard number of knives to be used in this execution is 130 knives. Now, the execution begins."

A loudspeaker radiates the justice's voice a great distance.Immediately, everyone in the audience cheered, and then, those people who did not get the qualification to watch the scene also heard a similar "cry of support" from outside the venue.

It can be seen that almost everyone in the kingdom is looking forward to Cheng Erqing's death soon.

"130 knives? Hehe..."

If it wasn't for Cheng Erqing's supply of "nutrition" for Xia Yu during this period, he would have been extremely weak and pale, and perhaps the amount of knives he had used would really make him turn pale from fright.

It's a pity that he made the system disguise, and others can't see that he is actually only two steps away from death now.

And thinking about it, it's really hard for those guys in the audience who want to watch a good show. He has been used to enduring physical pain during this time, so it's destined that those guys won't see him screaming from being cut.

At this time, the execution robot was already facing Cheng Erqing and stood still.

Then it turned towards Cheng Erqing, stretched out its right hand, and spread its five fingers.

I saw that the metal fingers instantly turned into sharp knives of different shapes.

There are different lengths, widths, and even thicknesses.

Just like that, the transformed ten sharp knives, reflected by the sunlight, really made Cheng Erqing's scalp tingle.

After all, this is also the first time for him to be cut alive.

"System, how long is it with Xia Yu?" Cheng Erqing asked the system.

System: "27 minutes and 8 seconds. The host can rest assured that according to the execution order received by the execution robot and the analysis of the host's physical condition at this time, the host can survive this time."

——Oh, it's so sweet.

"Hey, system, I remember the 'special encounter' I redeemed last time, isn't there two left to use? Or, let's use that to make a shameless transaction?"

Cheng Erqing said to the system with a silent smile.

System: "...you tell me."

When the words fell to the ground, the execution robot's first knife landed on Cheng Erqing's left shoulder.

At some point, the audience fell silent, as if the only sound left in the whole world was the sound of each other's breathing.

Except for the executioner, everyone else here is waiting for the knife to cut him down.

Slowly exert force on the blade.

Cheng Erqing's left shoulder was cut bit by bit.

In just a few seconds, a piece of human flesh two fingers wide, even with blood, was cut off.

Immediately, bright red flooded Cheng Erqing's body.

……

Xia Yu touched her heart subconsciously.

He felt something was wrong.

But no matter whether it was the detection of the surrounding situation with the divine sense, or the most likely prediction of the future, nothing was found.

But the feeling that something was wrong was real, and it became stronger and stronger.

"……elder brother."

Xia Yu muttered that title, her heart skipped a beat.

It's brother!

Xia Yu reacted.

Something happened to my brother!

——Although the strength is still a little short, but I can't wait any longer, something happened to my brother!

Thinking of this, Xia Yu immediately gathered all her strength towards the palms of her hands, and at the same time, silently recited the curse of breaking time and space in her heart - he wanted to break free from the shackles of the world in the bottle and go out to find his brother!

In an instant, the whole world became pitch black.The sea transformed from the spirit bottle suddenly became rough, and a hurricane appeared from nowhere, sweeping across the sea.

"Hey, Xia Yu, are you there?"

Cheng Erqing's voice suddenly appeared, interrupting Xia Yu's prepared spell at once, causing a slight backlash from the power.

"Brother! Why did you come to me?"

Xia Yu silently spit out the blood from the backlash, and replied softly.

"Someone sued me, saying that you are not good, and that you have not repaired your body properly. There is no way, although I am very busy, I still want to come and see your situation."

Cheng Erqing still kept his non-serious tone, and his smiling expression could be clearly heard in his voice.

"I didn't. I'm here to stay here."

Xia Yu secretly stopped the movements in her hands, let the strength she had just gathered retreat back to her body, and said seriously.

"Oh? Then I made a mistake?" Cheng Erqing asked meaningfully.

Looking at the gradually calming sea, Xia Yu replied:

"...Well, my brother made a mistake."

——The owner of the bottle has so many things to do, why don't you just advance a little time?What will happen!Why do you have to tell your brother about this kind of thing? As a result, he was suspected by his brother.

Cheng Erqing laughed out loud.

"Okay. I get it. I wronged brother Xia Yu. Since it was my fault, then I apologize to you, okay?"

He paused, smiled, and asked:

"So Xia Yu, can you forgive me?"

Xia Yu nodded, suddenly remembered that her brother couldn't see her movements, and said quickly:

"Okay, I forgive my brother."

——Sorry brother, I lied.But after we meet, I will definitely apologize to you in person, and then you are not allowed to be angry with me because of this matter.

"I knew that Xia Yu was the best."

Cheng Erqing said softly, but his voice became lower and lower.

"Brother, are you okay?" Xia Yu asked hurriedly, a little worried.

Cheng Erqing also answered quickly.

"It's okay. It's just that I didn't sleep well last night and I want to sleep now."

"Then go and rest. Don't worry about me, my side is fine. Go and rest!" Xia Yu urged.

Cheng Erqing was silent.

Then with a smile, he said softly, "Xia Yu, good afternoon."

Cheng Erqing's voice disappeared into Xia Yu's ears, Xia Yu closed her eyes and said silently:

Good afternoon, brother.

Huh? !

Xia Yu suddenly opened his eyes.

The sea is receding rapidly, and the sunlight in the sky is gradually becoming dazzling.

This is--

A sign that the world in a bottle is rapidly disintegrating!

Almost instantly, a glaring light shone into the world in the bottle from the outside, and in the blink of an eye, the area illuminated by the light became larger and larger, accompanied by the sound of a jade object being broken by an extremely powerful force.

There was a loud "boom"!

The world in the bottle was shattered, the force that bound Xia Yu for more than two months, and the power that made it difficult for him to break free completely disappeared!

--elder brother!

Xia Yu squeezed the formula, and the magic power in her body flowed freely.

The next moment, his figure appeared in a semi-enclosed space that could accommodate tens of thousands of people at the same time.

——I'm here to find you!

Xia Yu, who couldn't suppress the excited smile at the corner of his mouth, looked in a certain direction, which was the direction where the "target" was located, which he detected with magic power.

A dripping blood came into his sight.

Xia Yu was stunned.

--what is that?

The one in the bright red...that human-shaped one, who is it?

"Enemy attack! Defense team attack! Protect Your Majesty!"

At the same time as Xia Yu appeared, the alarm system of the execution ground was triggered. Amidst the sharp alarm sound, the captain of the King's Guard gave a loud order.

Everyone at the scene couldn't help looking at the "enemy" who suddenly appeared on the execution platform, and seemed to be very assured of the force value of the defense team.Except for the short-lived and negligible panic at the beginning, the people soon quieted down, waiting for Xia Yu's next move with a bit of a mentality of watching the show.

They believe that no one can withstand the force of the highest level of defense.

It's impossible for anyone.

Soon, the execution platform was surrounded by the guards, the high-energy protective cover on the platform was fully opened in an instant, and all high-end offensive weapons were aimed at Xia Yu standing in the middle of the platform.

"I obey His Majesty the King to order you to surrender immediately! Otherwise, kill immediately!"

The captain of the defense team shouted loudly.

Xia Yu ignored the noise, took a step forward, and walked in front of the pile of bloody and torn human figures.

Kneel down.

He stretched out his hand and slowly brushed away the hair mixed with cold sweat and blood, revealing the face.

"elder brother……"

He trembled and called softly.

Unfortunately, no one answered him.

"This is your last chance to surrender! People of Taichung! Do you surrender?"

The captain of the defense team shouted again.

As if she didn't hear those words, Xia Yu lowered her head, approached the ear of the human figure, and asked softly:

"Brother, are they the ones who made you like this?"

"Then I'll make them like this too, okay?"

"If you don't speak, I'll take it as your promise."

The humanoid didn't answer.

Xia Yu pouted.

"You're not nice to me at all. You don't even talk to me."

At this time, the captain of the defense team, who had finished his routine, waved his arm.

"The warning is over! Listen to my password! All attacks!"
