God’s Lightning Strikes the Soul, a Powerful Sword Rends the Body

The information within the jade scroll was simple: Duanzhen Valley Elder Tie Rukuang had purposefully attempted to hide Fang Xing's background when the Huangfu clan was investigating the Qing-Yun Sect, and when the Huangfu clan attempted to capture him, he did not obey and even killed one of them instead. Thus, it was ordered that he'd be forced to undergo a torturous punishment; an altar for torment had been set up at the main peak of the Qing-Yun Sect, and the punishment was set to continue for three months.

The punishment involved thrusting a sword into the person's body and sending a bolt of lightning into their soul. Three strikes of lightning and three thrusts of a sword each day, for a total of three months until the person had been struck by lightning and stabbed one hundred times each. This was truly a punishment that would leave the victim wishing they were dead, yet they would be forced to remain hanging on from a thread.
