Chapter 206: Wronged Good Person? Ungratefulness? The Oil Cauldron Punishment!
For a moment, Gao Xiaoyi felt a chill down his spine.
He tried to “swim” through the yellow-black, foul-smelling sea of oil, but found it difficult to move forward because it was too viscous.
The stench in the air grew more familiar.
“Isn’t this the smell of corpses?” Gao Xiaoyi’s scalp began to tingle.
…
What he didn’t know was that all of this was being observed by Qin Feng.
Qin Feng stood atop the white jade high platform in the place of judgment, beside him kneeling a figure in white robes, the silent translator of ancient divine texts, Ashashis.
In Qin Feng’s eyes, a massive oil cauldron appeared before him!
Gao Xiaoyi, with his lean black-robed figure, seemed as insignificant as an ant in that vast cauldron.
Soon, the oil cauldron started heating up.
“This corpse collector will be cooked alive in the oil, and this process will repeat infinitely,” Qin Feng thought calmly. “During the process, his memory will remain, making it increasingly painful for him…”
However, Qin Feng was a bit confused.
He had just reviewed Gao Xiaoyi’s memories and found that the man had not committed any heinous crimes.
Even after the game of the Abandoned Gods arrived, he had only killed a few people, and every time, it was swift.
The Blade of Judgment, the default punishment it invoked, was not to have him repeatedly ambushed and killed, but to be thrown into the oil cauldron? That seemed a bit too cruel.
Qin Feng thought carefully and soon realized that it might be linked to a particular memory.
“Gao Xiaoyi, when he was young, was tall and strong. He married the daughter of the boss of a switch factory.”
“His father-in-law made him a manager at the factory to learn and accumulate experience.”
“But Gao Xiaoyi’s ambition grew. After many years without promotion, he began to resent his father-in-law.”
“Back then, the switch factory was a state-owned enterprise. Gao Xiaoyi secretly reported his father-in-law for bribery and embezzlement, forged evidence to frame him, leading to his father-in-law’s wrongful imprisonment and eventual death in prison.”
“Afterward, Gao Xiaoyi took over the factory’s privatization, turning it into a private company, but it went bankrupt in just two years due to poor management.”
“His wife passed away seven years ago, leaving him childless, and she never knew that her father had been wrongfully reported by her own husband!”
Originally, Gao Xiaoyi had lived a miserable life in his old age.
Then, the arrival of the game of the Abandoned Gods gave him a glimmer of hope.
He saw the possibility of immortality, the chance to rise again. With his hidden profession, he could become someone powerful once more!
Of course.
Qin Feng had no interest in the old man’s thoughts.
He only cared about…
“This judgment provided the Blade of Judgment with 17 points of divinity and 17% of basic attributes.”
“This means that this guy’s crimes are far more severe than Hu Qibin’s.”
“Wronged someone? Caused his father-in-law’s death, repaid kindness with cruelty?”
Qin Feng narrowed his eyes. Which of these is the greater sin?
To find out, more examples are needed.
And the next target…
Naturally, it was Huang Ziqing!
By now, Qin Feng had reviewed Gao Xiaoyi’s memories and learned about his dealings with Huang Ziqing.
He even discovered that Huang Ziqing had committed matricide!
Qin Feng recalled his recent meeting with Huang Huifen. Who would have thought that the chairman of Feike Heavy Industries would be killed by her own son?
“This is a huge wave of rewards coming my way!”
“And according to the information given to me by the late-night rain…”
“Huang Ziqing indeed obtained the Abyssal Curse Vase.”
“He demonstrated two skills used by the boss: the Abyssal Silence Curse and the Abyssal Slow Curse.”
“If those are the only two curses, then I have nothing to worry about.”
Slow and silence are both control effects.
Even if they were epic-level curse skills, they would be completely blocked by Qin Feng’s affix ‘Invulnerable.’
“First, I’ll cooperate with Gao Xiaoyi and let him use his ‘Soul Vision’ talent to see me, even when I’m invisible.”
“Then, the team will share the vision.”
“Surprise Huang Ziqing with a silence and slow curse on me?”
“If it succeeds, I won’t be able to cast any skills, and I’ll be slowed by 99%! I’ll be a lamb to the slaughter, facing the full-on bombardment from the Feike Heavy Industries guild, and I’ll be dead for sure!”
Just in time, Qin Feng still needed to collect the 500 years of life Huang Ziqing owed him.
If he made a move during the trade…
Qin Feng would be playing right into his hands!
“In Huang Ziqing’s eyes, I can’t break his control effects.”
“Because his skills are epic-level curses.”
“My first kill released to the public is only Diamond.”
“Diamond-level control-breaking skills can’t dispel epic-level control effects. No one can clear the negative effects on me.”
“In his perception, epic-level skills are the top skills!”
Although the ‘Invulnerable’ affix should be enough, Qin Feng still thought it was wise to prepare a control-breaking skill, just in case.
Of course.
The other side’s plan seemed fairly well thought out, and in their perception, the success rate was not low.
But…
Qin Feng was still puzzled.
Was Huang Ziqing really such a fool?
Was he really going to let Gao Xiaoyi threaten him into attacking his shadow?
To be honest, Gao Xiaoyi’s plan was flawless.
Even if they failed and couldn’t kill Qin Feng, Gao Xiaoyi would still be in a relatively safe position.
The problem was Huang Ziqing’s character was too absurd.
As long as Gao Xiaoyi said he was being coerced by Huang Ziqing, everyone would believe it.
Even Qin Feng might buy into it and spare Gao Xiaoyi…
But what was going on with Huang Ziqing?
“Even if he’s confident he can kill me in the game, isn’t he afraid I’ll come after him in real life and slaughter him?”
Qin Feng thought it over carefully.
Only one possibility came to mind.
“Could it be… that curse skill?”
Whether or not it was, Qin Feng didn’t care to think about it anymore.
Now, he was in the shadows, Huang Ziqing in the light. As long as he killed Huang Ziqing once, he could bring him to judgment, and everything would become clear.
At this moment, Qin Feng looked at his Blade of Judgment attributes:
——
[Blade of Judgment (Divine Weapon)]
Grade: Primary
Basic Attributes: Physical Attack +941 → 1092, Elemental Attack +941 → 1092, All Attributes +93 → 108, Cooldown Speed +93 → 108%, Attack Speed +93 → 108%, Accuracy +93 → 108%
Divinity: 1/16 → 1/33
Basic Attribute Increase: 6% → 23%
——
Judging Gao Xiaoyi consumed 15 points of divinity this time.
It meant that Gao Xiaoyi’s power was much stronger than Hu Qibin’s.
Fortunately, it was worth it—the results of this judgment were quite good.
Qin Feng took a glance at the large oil cauldron in the illusion, then bid farewell to Ashashis.
He took several more ancient divine texts from her and left the place of judgment…
Meanwhile, in the illusion of the place of judgment.
In the huge oil cauldron, which was filled with the foul stench of corpses, Gao Xiaoyi was struggling.
Suddenly, he felt something was wrong.
“Why does it feel… like this oil is getting warmer?”
…
