CHAPTER 1370: CHAPTER 601: TRUMP CARD! LANLING GOD’S REVENGE! (PART 3)
Xie Li II became more and more afraid as he thought about it, his face pale, but he forced a brave front, saying: "He must be a liar. How could I possibly turn back into a horse, hahaha!"
Xie Li Khan said: "Did he say that before dawn, you would definitely become a horse?"
Xie Li II nodded!
"Let’s go to the statue of the Moon Demon God!" Xie Li Khan said.
Then, the father and son arrived at the gigantic Moon Demon God Plaza, kneeling under the statue of the Moon Demon God!
Faith indeed can bring tremendous strength to a person’s heart.
Xie Li II, who was initially uneasy, seemed to receive the protection of the Moon Demon God, and all his inner unease vanished completely.
And at this moment, Xie Li Khan also found Lanling’s words absurd, thinking he was nothing but a shameless liar!
"Men, bring out that despicable Near-Human Tribe member from the dungeon!" Xie Li Khan angrily shouted.
A moment later, Lanling was brought to the plaza.
Xie Li Khan glared at Lanling and said: "You liar, you dare impersonate the messenger of the Moon Demon God, you dare desecrate our god, I will burn you to death alive!"
Then, he shouted loudly: "Men, build up the pyre!"
A moment later, a gigantic pyre was constructed on the plaza, and Lanling was bound to a wooden frame, beneath which was piled dry wood, and he was drenched in oil!
More and more centaurs gathered on the plaza!
Xie Li Khan, holding a torch in his hand, came before Lanling, coldly saying: "Admit in front of everyone that you impersonated being the messenger of the Moon Demon God, and I will spare your life. Otherwise, you will be burned to ashes!"
There was not the slightest fear on Lanling’s face, and he calmly said: "I am on the Moon Demon God’s order to save your son, to save your tribe. Yet you reneged on faith and desecrated the dignity of the Moon Demon God. You will face retribution, your entire Xie Li Tribe will face E Yun!"
These words sent a chill through the hearts of all the centaurs on the plaza.
"Burn him, burn him..." some of the centaurs roared!
Lanling laughed wildly: "The Moon Demon God can save your son and can also reclaim him! Before sunrise, your son will be stripped of the lineage of the Moon Demon God’s people, he will turn into a lowly beast of a horse!"
At these words, all the centaur eyes were fixed on Xie Li II!
Xie Li II coldly said: "Then wait, if my son doesn’t turn into a horse, that proves you are a liar, you desecrated our great Moon Demon God, I will burn you to ashes alive!"
"Then let’s wait..." Lanling calmly said, then completely ignored the flames before him, ignoring the dry wood beneath him, and slowly closed his eyes!
More and more centaurs gathered on the plaza, more and more!
In the end, every centaur of the Xie Li Tribe, regardless of age or gender, arrived on the scene.
Everyone was filled with unease, yet full of anticipation, awaiting dawn!
Everyone was waiting for a result, would Xie Li II turn into a lowly beast of a horse?
All of the Xie Li Tribe centaurs believed they were the people of the Moon Demon God, with the blood of the Moon Demon God running through their veins, which made them half-human half-horse, incredibly noble and powerful!
And those without the Moon Demon God’s lineage were just lowly horses, to be ridden, to be enslaved!
Why do the centaur samurai of the Xie Li Tribe plunder desperately? It is to offer sacrifices to the Moon Demon God, to ensure in the next life they can continue as centaurs rather than become lowly horses.
In the hearts of the centaurs, to degrade into a horse in the next life is the most terrifying punishment!
And Lanling actually said that Xie Li II would degrade into a horse before dawn, becoming a horse in this very life?
That’s too terrifying, it’s a punishment worse than death!
If everything really was as that Near-Human Tribe member said, it would truly prove that he was the real messenger of the Moon Demon God!
...
Time was ticking away, second by second!
Xie Li II felt each day stretch long as if it were a year; he hoped time would move faster so there would be an immediate outcome, sparing him the torment.
He also wished time would slow down, never reaching dawn, so the possibility of turning back into a horse would be reduced to zero!
However, time always passes mercilessly!
What will come, will come!
The dawn has arrived...
All eyes were on Xie Li II!
Would he turn into a horse? Would he face the punishment?
Was Lanling, the Near-Human Tribe member, truly the messenger of the Moon Demon God?
Everyone was waiting for the first ray of sunlight!
"Whish!"
The first ray of sunlight shone on the scene!
Xie Li II was still a centaur, not turned back into a beast of a horse!
Instantly, he laughed maniacally and roared wildly: "I haven’t turned back into a horse, you liar, you liar! Burn him, burn him!~
"Burn him, burn him!"
Countless centaurs roared!
Regardless of gender or age, all the centaurs were shouting to burn Lanling!
Nothing happened after all, Xie Li II didn’t turn back into a horse, this Near-Human Tribe member was indeed a liar.
All the centaurs felt both relieved and disappointed!
Relieved, because the so-called divine punishment was false, and the Xie Li Tribe wouldn’t suffer E Yun.
Disappointed because this supposed messenger of the Moon Demon God was false, meaning they couldn’t truly come into contact with the god they believed in!
Xie Li Khan looked at Lanling with a sneer and said: "Despicable Near-Human Tribe member, you dare impersonate our great Moon Demon God, let the flames completely consume you!"
Then, he threw the torch fiercely onto the pyre.
"Boom..." Flames roared up.
The ferocious flames burned fiercely, instantly engulfing Lanling’s body completely!
At the same time, a centaur suddenly pointed at Xie Li II and screamed: "Look quickly, look at Little Khan, he really changed..."
