I'm useless, but my apprentices are all gods who protect others.

Duan Chuling never expected that just by taking Ayan out for a while, his usually calm uncle would become furious.

She and Ayan were even escorted to the family's meeting hall, which was dedicated to dealing with sinners, and were judged by the elders.

"When did you meet? Who gave you the courage to take him out without permission?!"

Duan Xing whipped Duan Chuling hard with a leather whip, which hit his flesh and caused blood.

Duan Chuling was so spoiled that she couldn't bear such a punishment. She screamed in pain and begged for help with tears on her face: "Dad! Mom! It hurts me so much!"

However, her parents, who had always loved her, looked anxious, but never came to stop her.

Anger and confusion suddenly filled Duan Chuling's heart. She dodged and shouted: "Why can't you take Ayan out? Ayan is obviously your son, but you don't let him go out or see people. He has grown so big today." This is the first time he has eaten candied haws on a stick, why should uncle treat him so harshly?"

"Ling'er! Stop talking and be punished quietly!" Duan Chuling's father shouted loudly.

Duan Chuling: "I have to say it! Do you treat Ayan as a human being?!"

At this time, Ah Yan, who was knocked unconscious, was awakened by the screams. Seeing that his sister was beaten to a bloody pulp, he suddenly became extremely anxious.

He wanted to break free from the rope around him, but there were runes on the rope, and Ayan couldn't break free no matter what.

"Save sister! Please go and save sister!" Ayan's eyes were about to burst, but he could not break free and could only look at Sheng Yi beside him.

Sheng Yi felt that every minute and second passed extremely slowly. Her voice was hard: "You know, I can't do it."

Kindness cannot touch anything here.

This is memory.

She can only be a bystander.

Ah Yan remembers sweating profusely, veins popping up on his forehead, and yelling: "Why are you so useless! Why do you appear next to me, but you can't help me at all?!"

Then he struggled and rolled in front of Duan Chuling: "Stop hitting my sister!"

Seeing Ayan step forward, Duan Xing stopped whipping and looked at Ayan like a stranger.

Duan Xing sneered: "It was my negligence. I didn't expect that after a few years of not executing you personally, you would slowly start to live like a human being."

When Ayan was seven or eight years old, executions were a daily routine. He had no friends, no one cared about him, and his eyes were always empty, as if he didn't care about anything.

Unexpectedly, when we met today, I actually knew how to protect my sister.

"Sister, are you okay!" Ayan didn't want to listen to Duan Xing's nonsense, so she turned to ask Duan Chuling.

Duan Chuling was speechless several times in pain, and her words were weak: "Ayan, he is your father. Please beg him. If you beg him, maybe he won't punish us..."

Ayan frowned: "He is not my father, I don't have a father."

Duan Xing paused after hearing the words, and slowly withdrew the long whip dripping with blood. A trace of sinisterness flashed in his eyes, but then he strangely became kind and cheerful.

Duan Xing looked at Duan Chuling, "Aren't you asking me why I did this to him? I'm in a good mood today, so I'll answer it for you."

"Brother! Ling'er is still young, I will teach her about Ah Yan, no need to..." Duan Su couldn't bear to see his daughter being beaten like this. Seeing Duan Xing talking like this, he couldn't help but speak out to dissuade her.

"In a few years, it will be time to test your qualifications and start practicing. As a member of the Duan family, how can we not know the importance of Ayan to my Duan family." Duan Xing dismissed with a smile.

Duan Xing then looked at Ayan and said, "Don't you want to save your sister? Well, now I will give you a choice. As long as you suffer the punishment of being quartered on five horses for your sister, I will exempt you from the punishment of leaving without permission."

Dismembered by five horses? !
Doesn’t this mean that Ayan will die? !
Duan Chuling was horrified and suddenly felt chills all over her body. She looked at Duan Xing in disbelief and said incoherently: "Uncle, Ah Yan, he will, will die..."

However, Duan Xing was indifferent, and the elders around him also had the usual expressions. Even Ayan himself seemed to be relieved and agreed: "Then let's cut the body into pieces. Hurry up, I want to send my sister to heal."

Duan Chuling was stunned. Cutting the body into pieces by five horses was a death sentence!Why can't I see any fear on Ayan's face?
"The love between brother and sister is really deep." Duan Xing sighed hypocritically, "Then let's go to jail. Duan Su, take your daughter to the front and let your daughter take a good look."

Take a good look at how the monster died.

For a moment, Duan Chuling felt that everyone was crazy.

How could they treat a human life so lightly.

But what really made her heart ache was Ayan's attitude towards death.

It is as natural as wanting to eat when you are hungry and drinking water when you are thirsty.

This is not normal at all.

Sheng Yi stood aside and finally stood with Duan Chuling.

She watched the lost Duan Chuling being pulled to the open space by her father, and was forced to stare at Ayan's limbs and neck being tied with a thick rope, and the other end of the rope was tied to a strong horse.

At the command, the five horses ran away at the same time.

Duan Chuling subconsciously wanted to turn away, but the uncle next to him pinched his chin hard and forcefully straightened Duan Chuling's face, facing the tragic situation of Ayan's body being separated.

Hearing a puff, Sheng Yi couldn't help but close his eyes even though he knew the blood wouldn't splash on him.

Blood splashed all over Duan Chuling, her face was pale, and she couldn't help but let out a sharp explosion.

Duan Xing picked up the wreckage on the ground with ease and said lightly: "I have already sacrificed this month, let's feed these to the dogs."

Duan Chuling struggled violently: "You killed my brother! You crazy people!"

Duan Xing: "You don't have a younger brother like Ah Yan."

Then he raised his eyebrows, "Also, who said we killed him?"

Duan Chuling was stunned, and followed Duan Xing's eyes to look stiffly at Ayan's body, only to see a complete person slowly rising from the pool of blood that was bright red just a moment ago.

Ah Yan stood up, except for the tattered clothes on his body, he was unharmed.

Duan Chuling's mind went blank. She seemed to have been drained of strength. She collapsed on the ground and murmured: "Why..."

"Didn't you just say, why should I treat my son harshly?" Duan Xing said casually.

"Ayan like this is just a monster, not my son."

"But..." Duan Chuling shook his head, already on the verge of collapse, "Ayan is a human being! He has his own feelings and preferences. He is not a monster."

"Unrepentant." Duan Xing sighed, "My Duan family has not been very talented since our ancestors. There are many people, but all of them are mediocre in cultivation. More than ten years ago, my Duan family was surrounded by the Huo family, and one of them just The new aristocrats who have emerged in Bian City can beat us to pieces and run away in embarrassment."

"In just over ten years, our Duan family has quickly risen to become a famous family. Do you know why?"

Duan Chuling was on the verge of collapse, but Duan Xing forced it to wake up, "All this is thanks to Ayan. He can regenerate infinitely, and if he sacrifices his head to ghosts and gods, he can get infinite luck. Since using Ayan as a sacrifice, the Duan family's All his descendants, without exception, are geniuses.”

"You are a descendant of my Duan family. Since you enjoy the blessings he brings, you should stop treating him as a human being."

Duan Xing patted Duan Chuling on the shoulder with pity, "After all, you can only feel better if you treat him as a monster."

Duan Xing always knew that he had ruined Yao'er.

Only when Yao'er dies can he not be tortured by guilt.
