The blazing sun hung high in the sky, casting a bright and scorching light.
In front of the entrance to Heavenly Palace Mountain, stood ten stone pillars. Each stone pillar had someone tied to it, enduring the burning sun, exposed to the harsh heat.
Twenty meters away from the stone pillars stood a crowd of people, all gathered here to watch the spectacle.
"Are they the members of the Du Gu clan?" Many in the crowd focused their attention on the ten figures bound to the stone pillars.
Heavenly Palace had been capturing the descendants of the Du Gu clan for many years. This made some people in the ancestral land never encounter the descendants of the Du Gu clan, nor understand what made them special. They only knew that if one discovered descendants of the Du Gu clan and relayed the information to Heavenly Palace, a reward would be given.
