Chapter 145 - The Execution

Translated by Bloodfalcon, Edited by Krayto

Deceptive swordsmanship. In Su Fei's sword there is also a hidden dagger on its hilt. When Jiang Qin made Su Fei dropped his sword, Su Fei was able to pull out that final weapon from the hilt and kept it hidden until the last moment when Jiang Qin is closing in to deal the final blow on him. If Sun Ce had not thrown that spear, the one who would lie on the ground will be Jiang Qin.

“NOW YOU DIE!!!” Jiang Qin who was stunned earlier due to Su Fei's last attempt with a dagger, now his sanity already restored and goes mad again.

Su Fei's idea is pretty simple actually. If he cannot kill Jiang Qin earlier, then now it is simply impossible. So he is just relaxing his body, waiting for death to claim him.

“GONGYI, WITHDRAW!!!” Sun Ce sounded his order. Sun Ce's order is not to be defied again. Jiang Qin already defied his order for first time in order to avenge his older brother, if he violates it again, then Sun Ce can call for military law and execute Jiang Qin under the law.

“Milord, why?!” Jiang Qin shows a very puzzled look at Sun Ce. Su Fei has enraged Jiang Qin. He not only has “eaten” his elder brother's meat, but also almost killed him again and again, how can his lord Sun Ce make Jiang Qin hold his anger down?

“Hm?!” When Jiang Qin looked at that stern expression on Sun Ce's face, he can only withdraw, but his long sword kept trained at Su Fei.

“Hehehe, Sun Ce, Sun Bofu. How nice to meet you again!!!” Su Fei sneered at his old rival. They have been a rival since Jiangxia. Sun Ce have been battling with Su Fei numerous times. Jiangdong and Jiangxia battle mainly naval battle and they already met with each other only God knows how many times but never this close before.

“Heh, Su Fei, nice to meet you too!” Sun Ce also sneered back toward this old rival. This person is the one who can make Jiangdong’s navy not advance beyond Jiangxia. Although Jiangxia’s navy was defeated a few times, that is because Jiangxia's lord Huang Zu, did not have any heart to progress further. If Jiangxia changed their lord, Jing Province can easily swallow Jiangdong.

“Surrender!!! I will make you a commander of naval units. When I retake Wancheng city, I will appoint you as Wancheng city's general!” Said Sun Ce while looking at this Su Fei. Sun Ce’s army is not Lu Bu’s army. Sun Ce’s army's primary force is naval units. From Wancheng city, one can attack Jing Province. With Zhou Yu attacking from Jiangxia and Su Fei attacking from Wancheng city, Jing Province will fall in no time and Su Fei's merit will be very big and his status can be number 3 in Jiangdong, beside Sun Ce and Zhou Yu.

“Hahaha, surrender?!” Su Fei also had that idea. If he is debtless, it is possible for Su Fei to surrender. “Sun Ce, Sun Bofu. If I can surrender, I would have already surrendered a long time ago. Now, it is impossible!!!” Su Fei already had been offered to defect to Jiangdong many times before but was rejected by Su Fei each times. It is because Su Fei owed Huang Zu a big favor for employing Gan Ning. The reason that Su Fei is willing to surrender to Lu Bu’s army it is because of Huang She's treatment to them!

“So, in the end, you only want death, huh?!” Sun Ce threatened Su Fei. “You already know that Jiang Qin is very unhappy to Lu Bu’s army due to Zhou Tai being killed and treating his body disrespectfully. If I hand you to him, do you know what end you will get?”

“What end?!” Su Fei just shook his head “Death by slow cuts? Impaled by many swords? Boiled with cooking oil? Or cooked to make me a meatloaf dish? Do those things to me!!!” Su Fei sneered toward Sun Ce.

Sun Ce then said “Su Fei, I truly do not understand why you still do not want to surrender to me! I understand when you still followed Huang Zu, you owed him a favor. But now, you have been separated from him, why don't you become one of this Sun Ce's familial general? Am I lower than your current lord, that slave of three surnames? You know that I let your lord pass Lujiang and threw a banquet for him and see how he repaid me? He occupied my Wancheng city, to kill my wife! Let me ask you once more, are you truly willing to follow such villain? Also nobles in Wancheng city, most of them were massacred by his son-in-law. Those men are mass-murderers!!! And you still follow them? Where does your logic lie?”

“Hahaha, threw a banquet. That is Zhou Yu's scheme right? In order to use Milord as a borrowed knife for Jiangdong? You yourself also shamelessly announce that you are allied in order to take Jiangxia? As for occupying your Wancheng city, if Chen Duan was polite and not aggressive, will Milord abandon Huangzhou city and sieged Wancheng city?! Oh, Sun Ce, Sun Bofu, do you really think I am a child who is unable to see all sides of problems?” Su Fei just rebuked all of Sun Ce's claim one by one.

Su Fei continued “As for killing your wife? She hung herself. Your wife maintained her chastity for you, for someone who is not worthy to receive such virtuous woman. As for those nobles in Wancheng city? They rebelled against Milord!!! Your eyes only see the slaughter of nobles, but what about those commoners in Wancheng city? You did not pay any attention to them. Families broken by your military orders. Those commoners become undeserved merits for private soldiers of those nobles. They burned your “so-called city” and plundered your “city”, but you turn blind eyes to them right?”

“So I said, to hell with your offer!!! Just kill me, end this stupid conversation!!!” Su Fei said it directly.

“Is that your final answer?!” Sun Ce really do not want to kill Su Fei. This person is a titan in naval matters and has the ability to command. If he managed to surrender him, Sun Ce will gain another arm and will definitely recommend him to Gongjin. Maybe Sun Ce will leave the subjugation of Jiangxia for Su Fei.

“....” Su Fei just maintained his silence. His silence represented all of his decisions. If he is only one person with no debt, then he might surrender to Sun Ce. But he is still in debt with Huang Zu and Lu Bu. If he surrendered to Sun Ce, he definitely will make him fight his former lords in the battlefield.

“Jiang Qin, I give you Su Fei!!!” Sun Ce said in very bitter voice. Since he cannot obtain him, then only destroy him and then he said to his other generals “Let's go, we return to main HQ!!!” Sun Ce still had a lot to do. He must reorganized his army for the next major battle to settle his blood debt with Lu Bu.

“Yes, sir!!!” Jiang Qin is truly happy now. Initially he was afraid that his lord may spare Su Fei and even appointed him as Wancheng city general. This is higher than Jiang Qin's position and definitely will make Jiang Qin explode in anger if he had to kneel and receive orders from Su Fei. But, unexpectedly, Su Fei rejected Sun Ce's offer and gave him to Jiang Qin.

“HAHAHAHAHA!!!!” Jiang Qin should kneel down and thank Sun Ce, but Sun Ce did not give him this opportunity and quickly returned to his HQ. “Su Fei, Su Fei, since you asked for death, do not blame me! I also feared that you would truly surrender and make this Jiang Qin not able kill you for revenge!!! But now, you truly become an upstanding man in front of my eyes!!!” Jiang Qin did not know whether his sentence meant to sneer or praise Su Fei. If Su Fei surrendered, Jiang Qin will hold his grudge for life, due to him being unable to take revenge for Zhou Tai. But when Su Fei did not surrender, Jiang Qin can just ridicule Su Fei due to his grudge from Jiangxia’s battles and Zhou Tai.

“Say, if I told you that I did not eat the meatloaf dish, would I be spared from the slow death?!” Su Fei spoke casually toward Jiang Qin.

“Oh, I don't care if you ate or not. I will kill you slowly and cook you into meatloaf to give to your lord!” Jiang Qin said also casually. Jiang Qin only thought of revenge, to send Lu Bu a message that Jiang Qin is here for revenge.

“Aiyah!!!” Su Fei just shook his head. Suddenly he bite his tongue. His mouth is bursting with blood and Su Fei spat out a piece of flesh. This is suicide by biting his tongue.

“Oh, no no no no. You will not die so easily!!!” Jiang Qin quickly held Su Fei's lower jaw in order to dislocate his lower jaw, so Su Fei was unable to close his mouth again “Someone, give him hemostatic medicine!!!”

Su Fei just smiled bitterly, he truly planned to bite his tongue to commit suicide. Who knew that Jiang Qin was able to quickly prevent him by breaking his lower jaw?

“Hey, I have said that I must kill you slowly. If you died quickly like that, then I will not be satisfied, got it?” After Jiang Qin said that, his men already brought the hemostatic powder and quickly sprinkled it Su Fei's mouth by Jiang Qin.

“AAHHH!!!” Su Fei's tongue was already destroyed, so he could not scream only whine. In addition, his body is already very weak, so he cannot prevent whatever Jiang Qin would do to him

“Hahaha, come on, tell me where I should start?!” Jiang Qin licked his lips. “Oh, I will start with your hand!!!” Jiang Qin started cutting down Su Fei's hand. This is the pair of hands that almost claimed his life. So Jiang Qin quickly sliced him and sprinkled hemostatic medicine on the wounds and because Su Fei still in pain, it can only make Jiang Qin more and more angry.

“These arms also disgusting!! They need to be removed!!!” Jiang Qin quickly slashed Su Fei's arm. His long sword was now logged into Su Fei's arms.

“PUSHI!!!” Blood splashed on Jiang Qin's face. Jiang Qin became even fiercer. Su Fei's body was already shivering from pain, but he cannot move at all, only his eyes are fixated on Jiang Qin.

“Right!!! See me, watch me and remember me!!! This is your grandpa Jiang Qin who cut your arms and hands!!!” Jiang Qin then started to move that long sword which has been logged on Su Fei's arms. That long sword that Jiang Qin used is intentionally a blunt sword in order to torture Su Fei more and more.

“Oh, it is blunt, boo hoo hoo!!!” Jiang Qin mocking Su Fei. Jiang Qin now cutting his arm in manner of moving saw in order to make Su Fei more and more painful. The pain cannot be withstood by any human.

Su Fei's forehead started to profuse cold sweats. This is because of the intense pain. This kind of wound is considered as non-fatal for military and can even be ignored, but Su Fei's eyes are showing very unbearable pain.

“Yeehaw, he finally broke!!” Both of Su Fei's arms finally fell down from its original position then was stomped by Jiang Qin until it become patty.

“Ooohhh, this legs, are also an eyesores!!! They need to be removed also!!!” Jiang Qin used that blunt long sword again. Su Fei already could not bear the pain. Although he lost half of his tongue, he still can whine.

“Come on, whine more like the pig you are!!!” And with that, Su Fei's legs are gone and Jiang Qin screamed “Someone, sprinkle hemostatic medicine on him, no need to be gentle!!!” Jiang Qin will not let Su Fei die easily, he must suffer more and more.

“HAHAHAHHA, now you look much better without your four appendages!!!” Jiang Qin laughed. Su Fei could no longer shiver. He already fainted because of blood loss and pain.

“Oh no no no, you must not faint. You will not rob me of my pleasure of doing vengeance!! Someone, flush him with water!!!” Someone dumped cold water toward Su Fei. The water is very clear from the head, but when it reach midway, it turn red because of blood. Su Fei was in terrible condition.

Su Fei awoke after being flushed by water. Without arms and legs, he is only able to stare at Jiang Qin angrily. If stares could kill, Jiang Qin would have died twice over.

“Hah, what you can do by staring me?! That pair of eyes are also an eyesore!!! They need to be stabbed” Jiang Qin then took Su Fei's dagger and stabbed both of Su Fei's eyes.

“MMM!!!! MMM!!!!!” Su Fei is struggling because Jiang Qin stabbed his eyes. Su Fei's entire world became very dark, unable to see even a spec of light.

“HAHAHAHAHAHAAH!!!!!” Jiang Qin become crazier and said “That nose, ear and those lips are all eyesores, they need to be removed!”

With that, the once handsome scholar Su Fei disappeared from the earth and was sintead replaced with a beastly visage of a person.

Both of his eyes were bleeding out, his ears were cut, his nose was sliced and his lips were gone. Su Fei thought that death was ready to claim him, but Jiang Qin then boiled ginseng soup in order to prolong his life.

The ginseng that Jiang Qin's use is one-thousand-years-old ginseng, it is a very rare and very excellent medicine to prolong life.

“HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Someone, load Su Fei into a jar. Send him to Wancheng city as a present for the Marquis of Wen!!!” Jiang Qin was very satisfied with his masterpiece.
