Some braver individuals even stepped forward to take a closer look.
In the dim gray conditions, no one could clearly see the appearance of the person lying on the ground.
However, the smell of blood and the general scene of the person's body lying on the ground with its head separated were still visible to them.
The people who stepped forward to check were so frightened by the sight that they stumbled back, and almost fell in their haste.
"Ahhh..."
Cries of shock rang out in succession.
The dead person was indeed the middle-aged man who had previously been kneeling on the ground begging for mercy, but unfortunately, his pleas failed.
Not a drop of the blood from his body was wasted—all of it spilled over the spot where the talisman paper was pasted.
The talisman paper immediately emitted bursts of red light.
Even those who had not previously noticed anything amiss finally realized something was strange here.
