C403 The Punishment of Eight Knives
"Dad, who are our Hong Sect afraid of?" Hong Lan shouted, "To think we even claimed to be the number one gang in the overseas Chinese, how laughable!"
"Even if you're right, such an important decision, do you have to pass through me, the head of the sect, and the other hall masters?" Hong Haozhong stood up, "You acted on your own, bringing danger to our entire Hong Sect brothers. Even if you did the right thing, you must still receive the punishment of eight cuts."
"The punishment of eight cuts?" Everyone's expression changed as they pleaded loudly, "Sovereign, you can't!"
"Sect Leader, let's forget about it. We will also support the young miss in this matter."
"Yes, Sovereign, forget it."
"We can't!" Hong Haozhong stared angrily, "Punishment!"
The so-called 'punishment of eight blades' was to place eight daggers on the execution platform. He himself would stab all eight daggers onto his body and finish the job.
It was easy to say, but if he was going to stab himself with a dagger, not many people would be that ruthless.
If the eight slashes were to go down, Hong Lan would probably have to lie on the bed and rest for half a year.
So when they heard that they would let Hong Lan bear the punishment of eight cuts, the hall masters of Hong Sect all opened their mouths to plead for mercy.
However, it was as if Hong Haozhong was determined to make Hong Lan suffer the eight cuts and no one could stop her.
Soon, a long table was brought out and placed in front of Hong Lan. Eight daggers about ten centimeters long were neatly arranged on the table.
"Are you sure?" Hong Lan raised her head to look at her father with icy eyes.
"Of course." Hong Haozhong said firmly, "If you make a mistake, you can get your punishment exempted. In the future, who would be willing to follow the rules for Hong Sect? If you don't want to be punished, it's fine as long as you can find someone to stab you with these eight knives. "
"No need, I'll do my job alone." Hong Lan picked up the dagger and stabbed it towards her left shoulder!
"Sis!"
"Xiao Lan!"
Hong Lan's brother and younger brother cried out in alarm at the same time.
Hong Haozhong's eyes revealed an almost imperceptible trace of impatience, but it was quickly covered up by his cold appearance.
Just when everyone thought that Hong Lan's dagger would stab into her own body, a strong hand grabbed her wrist. "Lan, do you have to be so hot-tempered? Do you know that it's because of your temper that you haven't gotten married up till now? "
"Wang Feng!" Towards this guy who suddenly appeared, everyone from Hong Sect were all speechless.
If it wasn't for him, Hong Lan wouldn't have to suffer such punishment.
He was in the mood to make sarcastic remarks.
"None of your business!" Hong Lan snorted. "It's not like I'm asking you to marry me!"
Wang Feng said, "Hey, hey, hey. Let's talk about this later. Let me take the punishment for you for this eight blade punishment. "
"What?" Everyone was shocked. Being hit eight times wasn't a joke. Was this Wang Feng sure he had to do this?
"Are you really willing to take the punishment for me?" Hong Lan looked at Wang Feng in surprise, "Why?"
"You saved so many of my brothers, yet you were punished. If I don't help you, my brothers will look down on me." Wang Feng laughed heartily as he pushed Hong Lan to the side. At the same time, he picked up the eight daggers and said to Hong Haozhong, "Old man Hong, you said it yourself. It's enough to take eight hits, right?"
