"Ah... Master in heaven, your worthless disciple will be coming to visit you shortly... Let's drink tea together when I get there."

Ye Gui Feng is placed onto a rectangular pedestal with his knees pressed onto the ground. His hands are tied up behind his back.

Inwardly Ye Gui Feng feels wronged. Throughout the exchange between him and the sect elders he never had much of a chance to explain his circumstances and now they wanted to behead him.

Just when Ye Gui Feng had thought that his life in this world might have begun to look a bit brighter he is arrested by his sect and is now being executed for his cultivation of demonic arts.

Standing behind Ye Gui Feng is his executor who had a giant blade in hand. The executor had his upper body completely exposed to the chilling wind as he stares down at Ye Gui Feng coldly.

Standing right in front of the execution platform is the sect master, Qi Lan He. He addresses the large crowd gathered before him with an enraged tone of voice.

"Sect disciple Ye Gui Feng has been found to be cultivating in demonic arts! His punishment shall be death! Should anyone come out and speak on his behalf they shall be punished by being sent to the back mountains for seven months!"

Conversations break out from amongst the crowd. Amongst the masses are the former members of the kitchen staff alongside the kitchen's current members. All of them looked on in shock.

"No way? Xiao Feng was cultivating demonic arts?"

"I don't believe this..."

"We've been together for so many years he couldn't possibly have cultivated in demonic arts..."

A minority showed pity in their eyes but they didn't dare to speak out for the fear of punishment.

"He was always so quiet so that was what he had been up to."

"Hmph anyone who trains in demonic arts can't be a good person."

"Death to those in cahoots with the demonic sects!"

"Kill him!"

"Down with his head!"

"He deserves death!"

As the majority of the crowd shouts in agreement with Ye Gui Feng's execution Ye Gui Feng inwardly sighs.

Many, many miles away from the Seven Rivers Sect stands a robed figure in a hoodie. They are staring wide eyed at the current events of the Seven Rivers Sect.

They blink countless times and rubs their eyes with an expression of disbelief.

"Th-This... H-How can this be!?"

The person who had uttered these words is none other than Xie Mo Xin. He had never expected that the Seven Rivers Sect would actually execute their former disciple in such a fashion.

Xie Mo Xin had expected for Ye Gui Feng to be kicked out. But instead he now find Ye Gui Feng on the verge of being executed. This leaves Xie Mo Xin baffled in shock.

"Y-Y-You... Damnable scums! He's my disciple! And they're just going to execute him like a common fodder!? Do they have any idea how difficult it was to find a piece of trash with his level of worthlessness!? It took years! Years of hard searching for me to have come across this...! This trash that stands above all other trash!"

It was unknown if the outraged Xie Mo Xin was badmouthing Ye Gui Feng or praising Ye Gui Feng for his lack of talent.

"..."

Seeing so many within the crowd wanting him dead Ye Gui Feng wished to cry but no tears would come out.

Ye Gui Feng naturally knew that his former seniors and current juniors are fearful of speaking out for his behalf. Towards this he didn't blame them.

"Ye Gui Feng. On the fact that you used to be a disciple of my Seven Rivers Sect do you have any last words to speak of?"

"Yes..."

There was something that Ye Gui Feng always wanted to do but could never find the chance to do so. Since the moment has come he may as well do it.

"I'm innocent! I didn't do it! Senior brothers and friends! I'm sorry to have to let you all see me like this!"

Crying out in false accusation Ye Gui Feng shouts towards the crowd. His screams are like that of a dead spirit that's filled with endless regrets.

"Xiao Feng..."

Ye Gui Feng's senior brothers and friends all look on with bitterness as they clench their fists.

They hated themselves for being fearful of speaking out for Ye Gui Feng as a heavy guilt presses down on their hearts.

"Zhǎn! (斩Translation: Sever!)"

Qi Lan He hearing this tosses the wooden slip in his hand onto the ground.

*Clack, clack...* upon the wooden slip hitting the ground and bouncing twice the executor begins to move as this is the signals for him to begin his work.

As executor got into position with his blade in preparation to behead Ye Gui Feng-

"Ahhh! Screw this! I searched for far too long to have him die on me! I'm going for it!"

Gritting his teeth Xie Mo Xin waves his hand causing the heavens to instantly dim. He didn't want to have to interfere too much with Ye Gui Feng's life by helping him but in this situation he is left with no choice in the matter.

Dark clouds cover up the blue skies as fierce winds pick up to form a massive tornado!

This massive pillar of wind sweeps down the mountain that Xie Mo Xin is standing on and charges right towards the grounds of the Seven River Sect!

"Th-This...!?"

"What's going on!?"

"Are we being attacked!?"

The disciples who saw the incoming tornado are all scared witless as they quickly scattered to run away.

The executor and Qi Lan He are both just as dumbfound.

"Hehe... So a tornado will kill me instead..."

Ye Gui Feng couldn't stand much less move as the tornado draws closer and closer towards him with terrifying speed!

The executor and Qi Lan He quickly made a break for it while leaving Ye Gui Feng to die.

"Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!"

As the tornado comes closer and closer Ye Gui Feng releases a bloodcurdling scream. His body is abruptly picked up the fierce gales as he is carried away by the natural disaster.

"*Sigh* child live on well and cultivate well. Do not lose face for your master. We will meet again one day. The next time we meet face to face I shall take you back with me to Tiān Mó Zōng (天魔宗 Translation: Heavenly Demon Sect)."

Xie Mo Xin turns his back away from the Seven Rivers Sect and leaves without a trace. Before he can finally leave Ye Gui Feng alone he needed to make some arrangements with another sect.
