C4455 In a Chaotic World There Were Heavy Laws!
"Ah, it's so comfortable. This is really good wine. It's really satisfying."
The Third Prince laughed loudly.
Chen Xiao took a sip of the wine and blew the cold wind of the night. He had also become slightly sober. It was just that he had been too oppressed in the hall. Even he felt the heaviness in his heart.
With just a word, it was enough to decide the life and death of thousands of people. This kind of weight and mountain-like pressure was definitely not something an ordinary person could endure.
Just from this point alone, Chen Xiao could see that behind the calm face of the Third Prince, there was something extraordinary.
"Why, do you want to drink to calm your nerves?" Chen Xiao teased.
The Third Prince paused, smiled, and said, "That's right. This is not the first time I have done such a thing, but every time I do it, I feel very confused and worried. If I make a wrong decision, what kind of consequences will there be, and my heart will be extremely tormented."
The Third Prince's face was solemn, and his eyes were filled with uneasiness.
"Is that so?"
Chen Xiao drank a mouthful of wine and did not comment.
He had killed a lot of people, but most of them were people who deserved to die. Those who had enmity with him, he would not attack unless they offended him. He was not a person who loved to kill.
For example, he couldn't kill someone like the Third Prince, who killed his family with a single word. To him, killing ordinary people was meaningless.
This was probably the rule of power. It was different from cultivators. This feeling was very subtle.
"Killing people doesn't feel good, especially killing ordinary people. However, in order to maintain the rule of the Divine Emperor, I have to do this. Your Excellency Chen Xiao, can you understand me?"
The Third Prince asked.
Chen Xiao pursed his lips and nodded. He said, "I can understand, but I won't do it unless this person is really an unpardonable evil cultivator."
"Heh, that's a bit reasonable. Come, let's drink. If you can get Chen Xiao's understanding, then you deserve it. Let's drink."
The Third Prince raised the wine pot and clinked it with Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao smiled and drank it all in one gulp.
At this moment, a black shadow rushed over. It was Ying San.
"Your Highness, the Fan Family's nine clans have all been executed. There are a total of ten thousand people. This is the list. Please take a look."
Ying San held the list and handed it over.
When Chen Xiao heard this, he felt that even the air was filled with the smell of blood. It was extremely stinky, and he felt a little stifled in his heart.
The nine clans had been exterminated, and who knew how many innocent people had been implicated. Was this right or wrong?
Perhaps it was right. In a chaotic world, one had to use heavy laws. If not, one would not be able to intimidate the small fry.
The current Wushuang Dynasty was facing both internal and external problems. Without any lightning methods, it would be impossible for them to deal with them.
The Third Prince glanced at it and did not pick up the register. He was a little dispirited.
"Let's bury them all. We will erect another tablet."
Ying San was stunned for a moment and did not know what to do. However, he still agreed and replied, "Yes."
"Go."
Ying San cupped his hands and turned to leave.
"In this chaotic world, it is important to use heavy measures. Third Prince, perhaps you are right. I can't be so heartless." Chen Xiao said expressionlessly.
The Third Prince turned his head around and said, "You can understand me. I am really grateful to you, Chen Xiao."
"There's no need to be like this. We are also in the interest of each other." Chen Xiao smiled and replied.
The Third Prince was stunned for a moment and chuckled, "That's right. The interest is the most reliable relationship in the world. Your Excellency Chen Xiao, what you said is very true."
"Then what do you plan to do next to deal with the Black Sky Divine Sect?"
Chen Xiao's divine sense moved and swept across the vast Jingbian City. He discovered quite a few movements and asked.
The Third Prince replied expressionlessly, "You have also seen it. After such a turmoil, the Fan Family's nine clans have been exterminated. After all, it caused a huge commotion in Jingbian City. Many cultivators have been terrified and have already fled Jingbian City overnight. There are even signs of instability."
Chen Xiao nodded. He had seen all of this and was well aware of it.
The Third Prince was even more familiar with all of this. It was not strange for him to be able to see through the crux of the matter with a single glance.
What he was truly curious about was how the Third Prince was going to deal with such a chaotic situation.
"You saw through it? Then why did you still do it? Killing Fan Ren's nine clans was a huge matter, and it would naturally cause people to panic."
Chen Xiao said.
The Third Prince's face was cold, like an iceberg, and he said, "Yes, but I don't care. I want this effect."
"You did it on purpose? You want to chase them away?" Chen Xiao was a little surprised and asked.
The Third Prince nodded and said, "Yes, killing Fan Ren was for the sake of establishing prestige, and it was also to completely muddy the water. In this way, the people would naturally panic, and many people would take the opportunity to leave Jingbian City and escape elsewhere."
Hearing this, Chen Xiao thought for a moment and replied, "In this way, Jingbian City would be empty, giving the Black Sky Divine Sect a chance to take advantage of it and invite the Lord into the trap, right?"
The Third Prince was a little excited and nodded heavily. He said, "Right, Chen Xiao, you guessed it right. I want to do this. Haha, at that time, even if Li Zhan had a huge reason, he wouldn't dare to continue to delay. He would definitely be drawn into the battle. I want to see if Li Zhan and the Black Sky Divine Sect really have such a deep connection. Hmph."
Hearing this, Chen Xiao furrowed his brows and said, "But if this is the case, I'm afraid that it will be a disaster. Countless lives will be lost. Isn't it too cruel?"
Of course, he knew that the Third Prince's scheme would work, but the price was that the ordinary cultivators and mortals of the border city would suffer.
He couldn't bear to do this.
Just the Third Prince's thought was enough to decide the life and death of countless people. At this moment, Chen Xiao deeply experienced the terror of power.
"Cruel? Your Excellency Chen Xiao, you are a little too soft-hearted. If the Black Sky Divine Sect were to infiltrate, these people would end up the same. And now, I have only accelerated this process, which is essentially the same, isn't it?"
The Third Prince said coldly, his face full of disdain and contempt.
Hearing that, Chen Xiao sighed in his heart. He knew that he could not change the Third Prince's mind.
He also knew that doing this had no benefits, only gains and losses. The Black Sky Divine Sect's disaster was the most important thing at the moment. He had to get rid of it quickly. As for other things, they could all be sacrificed, and the people in the border city were the same.
If he had to blame someone, he could only blame Li Zhan. He was the one who had watched the Black Sky Divine Sect grow and ignore it.
Thinking of this, Chen Xiao became even more furious, and he was furious about Li Zhan.
"I know, Third Prince. In this chaotic world, you might be right."
Chen Xiao said indifferently with an expressionless face.
Seeing that, the Third Prince's expression relaxed a little. He looked at Chen Xiao and said sincerely, "I hope you can support me and help me completely destroy the Black Sky Divine Sect."
“Okay.”
“Thank you.”
