Peerless God of War

Chapter 4458: Heavy punishments in troubled times

On the top of the main hall of the city lord's palace, the third prince and Chen Xiao were sitting side by side, holding a wine flask in their hands, raising their heads and taking a sip of wine.

"Ah, Shutan, it's such a good drink, it's so enjoyable."

The third prince laughed.

Chen Xiao took a sip of wine and felt a little sober while blowing the cold night wind. He was too depressed in the palace just now. Even he felt a little heavy in his heart.

Just one word is enough to determine the life or death of thousands of people. This weight and mountain-like pressure are definitely not something that an ordinary person can bear.

Based on this alone, Chen Xiao could see how extraordinary the third prince was hidden behind his calm face.

"Why, do you want to drink to calm down the shock?" Chen Xiao joked.

The third prince paused, turned around with a smile, and said: "Yes, although this is not the first time that we have done this to destroy nine tribes, every time we do this, we will feel very confused and worried. If we make the wrong decision, , What consequences will there be? I feel extremely tormented.”

The third prince had a solemn look on his face, and his eyes were full of uneasiness.

"Yeah?"

Chen Xiao took a sip of wine and was noncommittal.

He killed many people, but most of them were people who deserved to die and people who had a grudge against him. He would not offend others unless they offended him. If others were not his enemies, he would not attack at will. He was not a murderous person in the first place. .

He couldn't do things like the third prince who would kill people from the nine clans with just a word. It would be meaningless to him if ordinary people killed him.

Probably, this is the operating rule of power. Different from the monks, this feeling is very subtle.

"The feeling of killing is not pleasant, especially killing some ordinary people, but in order to maintain the rule of the God Emperor, I have to do this. Mr. Chen Xiao, can you understand me?"

The third prince asked.

Chen Xiao pursed his lips, nodded, and said: "It's understandable, but I won't do it unless this person is really a heinous evil cultivator."

"Oh, that makes sense. Come on, drink. If I can get you drunk now, Chen Xiao, I think it's worth it. Let's do it."

The third prince raised the wine bottle and touched it with Chen Xiao.

Chen Xiao smiled slightly and drank it all in one gulp.

At this moment, a dark shadow came over, it was Ying San.

"I report to the Third Highness that all nine Fan clans have been executed, totaling more than 10,000 people. This is the roster. Please take a look at it."

Ying San held the roster and handed it over.

When Chen Xiao heard this, he felt that even the air was filled with the smell of blood. It was so foul and unpleasant that he felt a little clogged in his heart.

Nine tribes were executed, and I don’t know how many innocent people were implicated. Is this right or wrong?

Maybe that's right. In troubled times, heavy codes are used. If not, I'm afraid it won't be able to scare Xiaoxiao.

Today's Wushuang Divine Dynasty is suffering from constant external and internal troubles, and it is absolutely impossible to survive without any means of thunder.

The third prince glanced at it but did not pick up the list. He was a little uninterested.

"Bury them all and erect a monument."

Ying San was stunned for a moment, a little confused, but still agreed and replied: "Yes."

"Go ahead."

Ying Sanyi cupped his hands and turned to leave.

"In troubled times, heavy codes are used, Third Prince, maybe you are right, I can't be so cruel." Chen Xiao said expressionlessly.

The third prince turned around and said, "You can understand me. I'm really grateful to you, Chen Xiao."

"It doesn't have to be like this, there are interests between you and me." Chen Xiao smiled and replied.

The third prince was startled for a moment, then chuckled, "Yes, interest is the most reliable relationship in the world. Your Excellency, Chen Xiao, what you said is absolutely true."

"Then what are you going to do next to deal with the Black Sky Sect?"

With a thought, Chen Xiao glanced at the huge Jingbian City and found a lot of movement, so he asked.

The third prince replied expressionlessly: "You have also seen that after such a turmoil, the nine Fan Ren clans were wiped out and uprooted. After all, it caused a huge shock in Jingbian City. Many monks were afraid and fled Jingjing overnight. The border towns have even caused people to panic and show some signs of instability.”

Chen Xiao nodded, he saw all this and knew it well.

The third prince is more proficient in all this, and he can see the key at a glance, which is not surprising at all.

What he was really curious about was, faced with such a chaotic situation, what was the third prince going to do next?

"Did you see it? Then why do you do this? To destroy the nine Fan Ren clans is a huge thing, and it will naturally make people panic."

Chen Xiaodao.

The third prince had a face as cold as an iceberg and said, "Yes, but I don't care. This is the effect I want."

"Did you do this on purpose? Want to drive people away?" Chen Xiao was a little surprised and asked.

The third prince nodded and said: "Yes, to kill Fan Ren, one is to establish prestige, and the other is to completely muddy the water. If this happens, people will naturally be panicked, and many people will take the opportunity to leave Jingbian City. Run away somewhere else.”

Hearing this, Chen Xiao thought for a moment and replied: "This will create an emptiness in Jingbian City and give the Black Sky Sect an opportunity to invite you to the urn, right?"

The third prince was a little excited, nodded heavily, and said: "Yes, Chen Xiao, you guessed it right, that's what I'm going to do, haha. At that time, Li Zhan will not dare to delay even if he has a huge reason. I will definitely be involved in it and participate in the war. I want to see if Li Zhan and the Black Sky Sect really have that deep collusion, huh."

Hearing this, Chen Xiao frowned and said, "But if this happens, there will be countless deaths and injuries. Isn't it too cruel?"

Of course he knew that the Third Prince's trick would work, but the price was that the ordinary cultivators and mortals in Jingbian City would suffer.

He couldn't bear to do this.

Just a thought from the Third Prince could decide the life and death of countless people. At this moment, Chen Xiao deeply realized the horror of power.

"Cruel? Mr. Chen Xiao, you are a bit too soft-hearted. If the Black God Cult infiltrates, the fate of these people will actually be the same. Now I just speed up this process. There is no difference in essence, right?"

The Third Prince said coldly, with a look of disdain and contempt.

Hearing this, Chen Xiao sighed in his heart, knowing that he could not change the Third Prince's mind.

He also knew that there was no benefit or loss in doing this, only gains and losses. Now the disaster of the Black God Cult was the top priority, and it must be dealt with as soon as possible. As for other things, they could all become costs and could be sacrificed. The people in Jingbian City were no different.

If you want to blame someone, blame Li Zhan. He watched the Black God Cult grow and did nothing.

Thinking of this, Chen Xiao became more and more angry, angry at Li Zhan.

"I know, Third Prince, in troubled times, heavy punishments may be right."

Chen Xiao said lightly with a blank expression.

Seeing this, the Third Prince's expression eased, his tone relaxed a little, looked at Chen Xiao, and said sincerely: "I hope you can support me, help me, and completely wipe out the Black God Cult."

"Okay."

"Thank you."
