On the execution ground.
The gallows on which Tang Doudou had been executed had been removed, and a tall copper pillar had been placed in its place.
This time, Yao Xuan was going to execute Tang Doudou using the "hot branding" method, and this copper pillar was the tool used for the execution.
The "hot branding" method wasn't a punishment from the Douluo Continent. Instead, it originated from the Blue Star and was invented by King Zhou of the Shang Dynasty.
Yao Xuan naturally wouldn't impose such a harsh punishment on ordinary criminals on the Douluo Continent, but Yao Xuan had no sympathy for Tang Doudou, the source of all evil and traitor to humanity.
Even if she were to kill a criminal like Tang Doudou a hundred times, she still wouldn't be able to vent her anger. Therefore, the "hot branding" method was perfect for her.
The executioners in charge of executing Tang Doudou were Xie Xie and Yuanen Yehui. They led Ox-Head and Horse-Face out of the prison cart and escorted Tang Doudou to the copper pillar.
"W-what are they doing?"
Tang Doudou's eyes were filled with confusion as she stared at the copper pillar in front of her.
"You'll find out soon enough, you bastard!"
Xie Xie and Yuanen Yehui chuckled coldly as they pinned Tang San to the copper pillar. They then wrapped his arms and legs around the pillar and bound him with steel ropes.
"Realm Lord, the criminal Tang Doudou is in place. Please give the order!"
Xie Xie and Yuanen Yehui cupped their fists in salute as they turned to Yao Xuan.
"Begin!"
Upon hearing Xie Xie and Yuanen Yehui's words, Yao Xuan tossed a red wooden tablet into the air, announcing the commencement of the execution.
"Understood!"
Xie Xie and Yuanen Yehui revealed vicious expressions upon receiving Yao Xuan's orders, and they opened the hole at the bottom of the copper pillar.
There was already a pile of firewood that had been sprinkled with oxidizing agents and flammable materials. Xie Xie pulled out a soul lighter from his spatial soul tool and lit the firewood in the pillar.
Soon, a raging fire ignited within the copper pillar, releasing terrifying heat that quickly raised the temperature of the copper pillar.
In less than ten seconds, the temperature of the copper pillar had reached over a hundred degrees, and Tang Doudou's skin was scorching hot. Tang Doudou was in excruciating pain, and she screamed in agony as she begged for mercy.
Even though Tang Doudou's original body was a Divine King, the body of this soul fragment used to execute the punishment didn't have the cultivation of a Divine King. It was exactly the same as a mortal, so it naturally couldn't endure such a terrifying heat. It was burned to the point where its skin and flesh split open and fresh blood flowed.
The blood was evaporated by the high temperatures, alleviating some of the pain that Tang Doudou was in, but she still screamed in agony as she begged for mercy. Her body twisted slightly as she tried to escape from the copper pillar, but she was completely immobilized by the ropes around her, and she could only endure the excruciating pain of being burned.
In the face of such scorching temperatures, Tang Doudou's skin was quickly charred black and cracked open. Her flesh and blood were also melting away at a rapid rate, and her internal organs were also being heated up. Her vitality was quickly fading away.
In less than a minute, Tang Doudou's head tilted to the side. He had completely and thoroughly stopped breathing. However, he wasn't put down. Instead, he continued to be tied to the copper pillar until his extremely ugly body was burned into a pile of charcoal. Only then did the execution end. At this time, Xie Xie and Yuanen Yehui also announced to Yao Xuan that the execution was complete.
Thus, Tang Doudou's third soul fragment was dead!
