"Command!!"
After reading the final word, the creature instantly revealed its true form.
A pair of white snakes, one large and one small, danced in the air.
"Listen, everyone! Only slay the chief culprit. If the rest lay down their arms and surrender, I shall grant them pardon!"
Heluo's voice resonated across the land.
"Brainless fool! A verdict cannot be overturned without evidence—can you even present any proof?!"
Song Lin was speechless; this excuse was far too lowly.
This case had long been resolved; there's an old saying, "No double punishment for the same offense"—a principle upheld through time.
Once the punishment is served, the matter is closed; it's impossible to drag someone back occasionally just to penalize them again.
Of course, reversal isn't entirely impossible; at the very least, one must present evidence and escalate through the Taoist School.
Simply dispatching an executioner isn't how things should work.
