The sky outside was very blue, and today was a rare good day. She looked at the police surrounding the building, as well as the cameras and reporters from the major television stations. Behind the cordon were the child's parents. Seeing her carrying the child out, the child's mother cried out,"Please don't torture my child anymore. As long as you give him back to me, I'm willing to die!”

Ding Xiangyuan did not watch the contents of the later few videotapes. She did not know how Ding Yiqing had designed it. She turned around and saw Ding Yiqing feeding the baby. Although there was a hidden barrier, Ding Yiqing only made it so that humans could not see them. Sensing Ding Xiangyuan's gaze, Ding Yiqing raised his eyebrows, indicating that if she was interested, she could open the package and take a look. Ding Xiangyuan opened a corner of the package and found that the substitute's limbs seemed to be broken. She let out a soft " ah ". It seemed that the child's hands and feet were fractured in the videotape. It was indeed cruel enough to make his mother suffer.

The police chief who seemed to be in charge of this operation began to shout,"Suspect, listen up. We have arranged snipers nearby. You won't be able to escape. If you still have any conscience, you should hand the child over to us and let him receive treatment as soon as possible. As long as your attitude is good, we can consider leniency.”

Ding Xiangyuan smiled, raised the bag high, and threw it on the ground. The child let out a cry and stopped abruptly. There was a commotion in the crowd, and even the cameramen forgot to take pictures. They obviously did not expect her to be so cruel. The child's mother fainted.

Ding Xiangyuan still had a smile on his face, which aroused everyone's righteous anger. One of the policemen could not control his emotions. With a bang, he shot Ding Xiangyuan in the shoulder. Blood splattered on Ding Yiqing's face behind her. A few drops landed on the child's body and quickly seeped into the child's body. Ding Yiqing looked down at the child and saw that he was grinning from ear to ear. He was not afraid of her, whose face was covered in blood.

Ding Xiangyuan stood where he was, his smile unabated. The bone-piercing pain eased the pain in her heart a little. She suddenly understood why Ding Yiqing didn't stop her. Perhaps, she had expected this and allowed her to do such a thing.

"It's a pity he didn't kill you with one shot!" the police chief said coldly. Now, can you come with us obediently?”

Why aren't you shooting at me anymore? Use the guns in your hands to turn me into a sieve! How good would it be if I died in your hands! I don't want to be tortured by myself anymore. I caused you to lose so many relatives. Why don't you kill me? Ding Xiangyuan stopped smiling and was very disappointed. She would rather take another hundred shots. How could one shot stop her heartache?

Ding Yiqing said softly behind him,"Go, follow them." I'll have them try you first thing in the morning.”

Ding Xiangyuan turned back to look at her and said,""Then I'll leave the child to you.”

Ding Yiqing nodded in agreement. Ding Xiang Yuan could feel the pain in her shoulder slowly lessening. The bleeding had long stopped. She sighed and allowed the police officer who had been holding a gun to handcuff her and bring her into the police car. The police wanted to take her to the hospital to remove the bullet, but the accompanying medical staff was surprised to find that her wound had healed, as if she had never been injured before. She only said that the bullet had only grazed her clothes and did not hurt her. The police didn't pursue the matter and took her back to the police station.

When she was being interrogated, no matter what the police said to her, she did not say a word. She just stared at the wall behind the police in a daze. The last policeman was furious and said fiercely,"Do you think you can escape the law by not saying anything? Let me tell you, no one can save you this time. You'd better cooperate obediently. Speak! Why would he do such a thing to a child?”

Ding Xiangyuan's eyes finally turned to him. Looking at his eyes that were about to pop out of their sockets, he said lightly,""I don't care."

"You!" The policeman was so angry that he couldn't say anything for a moment."Anyway, I have plenty of time to waste with you. Think about it carefully." As he spoke, he gestured for the person who was recording to pack up.

"You don't have time." Ding Xiangyuan smiled. The trial will start tomorrow."

"Impossible." The police officer said disdainfully," There has never been such a precedent. Just stay here for now.”As he spoke, he left.

Early the next morning, the police officer who had declared that it was impossible to hold a court session came over with a very surprised expression. He said to Ding Xiangyuan,"Who exactly are you? How did you know that your case would definitely be heard today?”

Ding Xiangyuan only smiled and did not answer.

The court was still packed with cameras from many television stations. When Ding Xiangyuan appeared, the cameras kept flashing, and everyone's eyes were focused on her. She glanced around the court and did not see Ding Yiqing. Perhaps something had happened. She walked to the defendant's seat and stood properly. A voice suddenly shouted," What's there to interrogate in this case? This kind of person should be directly dragged out and shot!"”This sentence caused everyone present to echo. For a moment, the sound of " shoot her " resounded throughout the court.

Everyone was in place. The judge cleared his throat to quiet everyone down and signaled for the start. The prosecutor stood up and read out his own complaint. The judge asked Ding Xiangyuan what he had to say, but Ding Xiangyuan shook his head. The judge seemed a little surprised, but he still motioned for the prosecutor to continue. The prosecutor asked Ding Xiangyuan a few questions, including whether she knew the child's parents, her motive for doing this, and so on. Ding Xiangyuan responded with silence. Her attitude caused the people present to whisper.

As Ding Xiang Yuan did not have a lawyer and did not have the intention to defend herself, the trial ended very quickly. The witness and material evidence were conclusive, and the judge sentenced Ding Xiangyuan to death on the spot. As soon as the verdict was announced, the child's father burst into tears."Child, rest in peace! The person who killed you will soon go to hell!”

His words caused a wave of crying, and even the eyes of a few police officers turned red. Just as the crowd was about to disperse, an egg suddenly smashed into Ding Xiangyuan's face. Then, the second and third followed. The police didn't stop her, and Ding Xiang Yuan didn't avoid them. On the contrary, she felt much more comforted. It was as if humans were punishing her for not being able to control herself. The guilt she had felt for so many days finally lessened a little.

Perhaps, after being shot once, she would be able to be the Realm Guardian with a clear conscience again? She thought.

Even though Ding Xiangyuan wanted to be hated by all the humans in the living world, there were always people who did not want to see her suffer. Wang Mu Feng was one of them. Back then, Ding Yiqing had persuaded him not to care about Ding Xiangyuan. He had listened and endured it. However, when he saw the human smashing Ding Xiang Yuan with an egg, he finally could not hold it in.

When the fifth egg flew in front of Ding Xiangyuan, Wang Mu Feng suddenly appeared and knocked it down. When Ding Xiangyuan saw that it was him, he was stunned for a moment and said,""Why are you here?"

"I can't let you continue to mess around like this." Wang Mu Feng said. Come back with me!" As he spoke, he grabbed her hand and wanted to use teleportation. Ding Xiangyuan broke free of his hand and said,"This is my choice. It has nothing to do with you!"”

"How is it not related?" Wang Mufeng said angrily.”Another egg flew over, and he bounced it back with a swoosh.

The people who were about to smash the eggs stopped and one of them shouted,"Who are you? Why are you protecting this evil woman?"

Wang Mu Feng suddenly turned around and stared at the person who spoke. He said word by word,"I dare you to scold her again!"

That person was shocked by his gaze and did not dare to say anything else. Ding Xiang Yuan said," This is my agreement with the Divine Realm. Qingqing also supports me. Why are you stopping me?”

"The Divine Realm just wants to see you make a fool of yourself. Why do you have to make such an agreement with them?" Wang Mu Feng said in a deep voice. You must come back with me today!"

Ding Xiang Yuan stared at him.”

"I just don't want to see you being bullied by humans like this! You're a grand Realm Guardian, don't you know what kind of responsibility you have? Why did he come here to do such a thing? I'm the king, I won't allow it!" Wang Mu Feng shouted.

Although the humans beside them could not understand what they were saying, the camera recorded everything. Those with keen senses knew that this was very valuable information.

The child's father shouted again," She killed my child. You're protecting her. You're an accomplice. You can go to jail too."”

"A child, right?" Wang Mu Feng said disdainfully. I'll return it to you!"

"What are you doing?" Ding Xiangyuan asked hurriedly. The child is already dead. I fell to my death!”

"Are you still going to lie to them? I snatched the child from Qingqing.”Wang Mu Feng waved his hand, and a blue circle appeared. The child was sitting in the circle, and when he saw Ding Xiang Yuan, he laughed and asked her to carry him.

Everyone was stunned. What was going on? It was unbelievable! At that time, their cameras had clearly captured the child who had fallen from Ding Xiang Yuan. Why did he appear again without any injuries? And the way it appeared was so strange. How could it sit in a circle of light and float in midair?

Ding Xiangyuan sighed." Although I was going to modify their memories, if you do this, everything I've done before will be in vain."”She reached out and the handcuffs on her hands fell off. The circle of light automatically flew into her hands and the child landed steadily in her arms. He wrapped his arms around her neck and suddenly kissed her on the cheek. She was stunned for a moment before she smiled. Her heart felt warm. She walked over and handed the child to his father.""I'm sorry. For some reason, I borrowed your son. I'm returning it to you now. I hope you'll be happy.”
