C4454 He Deserved It!
Seeing this, Chen Xiao sighed lightly and said, "Ah, I wonder how many people died in this calamity."
The Third Prince was a little surprised and said, "Are you feeling sorry for these people?"
Chen Xiao shook his head. "No, I just feel that it's ridiculous. These people clearly knew that they were committing a heinous crime, but they still dared to do it. Once the matter was exposed, they would undoubtedly die, and they even took the risk to do such a stupid thing. Heh, I can't understand it."
"Yeah, the greed of human nature has no limits. Just like Fan Ren, he clearly already has wealth and glory, and he can enjoy it endlessly, but he still wants more, and he wants it to be passed down for eternity. Heh, a greedy person won't have a good ending. Everything has a limit, right?"
The Third Prince said in a deep voice. His hatred for Fan Ren's clan could be imagined.
That was right. It was because he had received the grace of the Divine Emperor that Fan Ren was able to have his present life. His family prospered and did not decline, but even so, he was still unsatisfied.
Once a person crossed the boundary, it would be the path to death.
Without a doubt, Fan Ren had gone overboard. He had to bear the corresponding consequences. If it was not worth regretting, then he deserved it. All of this was already destined.
Some things were bestowed by the Godking, so they could be taken back.
"That's right. Greed will only harm others. The Third Prince's words are reasonable. Hehe." Chen Xiao laughed.
In the hall, the blood had not dried yet. Fan Zhui and Li Ping'er's corpses were still lying on the ground, but it did not affect Chen Xiao and the Third Prince's casual conversation.
Such a horrifying scene caused all the cultivators in the border city to be silent, as if they were cicadas in the winter.
Especially Zheng Yuanwu and Leng Qiu, their faces had long turned pale from fright, and they knelt on the ground.
"Third Highness, please be merciful. Fan Ren was the mastermind, and we had no choice but to obey."
Zheng Yuanwu's face was full of sweat as he begged bitterly.
Leng Qiu even directly knelt on the ground, snatching the ground with her head, and said, "Please be merciful, Third Highness. Leave me a cheap life. I am willing to follow you and serve you, and I will die with honor."
The Third Prince coldly glanced at the two of them and did not say anything. Instead, he looked at Chen Xiao.
"Senior Blood Hand, what do you think I should do with these two people? Should I kill them or leave them alive?"
"Heh, the Third Prince is asking me?" Chen Xiao laughed, feeling that it was a bit strange.
At this moment, Zheng Yuanwu and Leng Qiu were even more shocked. They looked at Chen Xiao with shock in their eyes.
Only at this moment did they truly understand how important this mysterious expert who called himself Blood Hand was in the Third Prince's heart.
Even this kind of thing had to be asked for the other party's opinion? This was really a bit unimaginable.
"This..." Zheng Yuanwu was stunned.
"..." Leng Qiu was a little confused.
The Third Prince was very serious as he nodded and said, "Yes, Senior Blood Hand, what do you think we should do with these two people? I will listen to you."
Seeing that the other party seemed to be serious, Chen Xiao asked, "Are you serious?"
"Yes, just like what Senior said just now, I have already killed Fan Ren's nine clans. It can be said that I have killed the evildoer and killed many people. I have established a rule. Although these two people are guilty, how to deal with them is a big problem. I am a little conflicted, I wonder what Senior thinks?"
The Third Prince said with a solemn expression.
Chen Xiao glanced at the two of them and said, "They deserve it. Fan Ren is the first criminal, so these two are the second. However, since you said so, Third Prince, you can keep them for now and make up for your mistakes. After all, you still need people to help you in the future, right?"
Chen Xiao understood what he meant and said as a favor.
When the two of them heard this, they were overjoyed. With this sentence, they could be considered to have saved their lives, although it was only temporary.
"Senior, thank you for pleading on our behalf. We will never forget your great kindness," Zheng Yuanwu said hurriedly.
"We will never dare to forget your kindness. Senior, please be merciful and allow us to redeem our mistakes."
Leng Qiu hurriedly said.
Seeing this, the Third Prince's face turned cold. He glanced at the two of them, and said, "Alright, since Senior Blood Hand has said so, I can let you go. I will spare your lives and allow you to redeem your mistakes. However, death can be avoided, but it is difficult to escape punishment. Men, send someone to confiscate the house."
“Understood,” one of the Shadow Guards replied and turned to leave.
This way, it showed the Third Prince’s magnanimity, and also gave the two Marquises enough warning. They could take this as a lesson and not dare to commit the same mistake again.
It was sometimes even more painful to confiscate property than to kill them.
Hearing this, Zheng Yuanwu and Leng Qiu felt as if they had lost their parents. They immediately became listless, like an eggplant that had been beaten by a cold autumn breeze. They lost all their strength.
“Bring it over,” the Third Prince said coldly as he spread out his right hand.
Although Zheng Yuanwu was extremely reluctant, he did not dare to resist. “Yes.”
He obediently took out his storage ring. Apart from his Natal Magical Treasure, he obediently handed it over to the Third Prince with both hands.
Leng Qiu also handed over her storage ring.
In addition to the Blackheaven Spirit Treasure grade treasured saber, they had gained quite a bit from this trip. It was not a wasted trip.
Just this alone was enough for the Third Prince to not have come here in vain.
The Third Prince received the two people’s storage rings. After a simple glance, his eyes widened, and he said coldly, “Heh, treasures are not good. It seems that the three great Marquises have monopolized a part of the land these years and have been greedy. Hmph, what a fat job.”
Zheng Yuanwu and Leng Qiu smiled bitterly and did not dare to speak, afraid that they would accidentally anger the Third Prince again.
It was not easy for them to save their lives with Chen Xiao's pleading. They did not want to lose it again.
The Third Prince ignored the two of them and looked around, announcing in a loud voice, "I now declare that Fan Ren colluded with foreign enemies and colluded with the Black Heavens Divine Sect, causing harm to the people. He deserved to die. He should be killed. Today, I will kill this thief for the God Emperor. This will serve as a warning to others. Zheng Yuanwu and Leng Qiu have a good attitude of admitting their guilt. They should be lightly punished and redeemed with their sins. In the future, I will personally oversee the border of Jingbian City and deal with the Black Heavens Divine Sects. I will ensure the safety of the people. I hope everyone will cooperate."
The Third Prince's words were full of vigor and power. It was also a clear-cut plan to show his intentions and ambitions.
He vowed to fight to the end with the Black Heavens Divine Cult and would not show any mercy.
"Long live the God Emperor. The Third Highness is wise."
"Long live the God Emperor. The third Highness is wise."
Everyone bowed their heads in unison. No one dared to refute. Facing the power of the Third Prince, they were all extremely impressed.
To be able to kill Fan Ren and his family with a thunderous method to establish his prestige and fame, there would be no more voices of opposition in Jingbian City from now on.
