"Beast!
Looking at these evidences, what else do you have to say?!" Thorian
shouted in a deep voice.
"Little
Prince, please listen to my explanation..."
The
city guard general was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and said
incoherently: "These are all fake. Someone must have framed me. I have
been law-abiding for many years. How could I do such a dirty thing?"
"Now
that the evidence is irrefutable, you still dare to quibble? I think you won't
cry until you see the coffin!"
Thorian
waved his hand and ordered: "Come here! Throw him into the Black Prison
and torture him severely. I want to see how hard he can keep his mouth
shut!"
"Yes,
sir!"
A
group of law enforcement guards immediately swarmed in and surrounded the city
guard commander.
Seeing
this situation, the city guard commander finally panicked.
He
knelt on the ground with a thud and began to beg for mercy: "Little prince!
I know I was wrong!
I
was just confused for a moment. Please, Your Highness, give me some leniency
for the sake of my many years of service to West Lucozia!
From
now on, I will serve the young prince with all my strength!”
After
saying that, he kowtowed several times.
Although
he didn't know where these evidences were collected from, he knew very well
that if Thorian took it seriously, he would confiscate his property and
exterminate his entire clan!
At
this moment, dignity and face are no longer important.
As
long as he can survive, as long as he can keep his wealth and glory, he will
not hesitate even if he has to be Thorian's dog in the future.
"Weren't
you very tough before? Are you scared now?" Thorian said with a cold face.
"I
was foolish. I thought I could deceive you, little prince. I didn't expect you
to be so perceptive and insightful. I couldn't hide my little thoughts from
you. I know I was wrong. I won't do it again!"
The
city guard commander lowered his head, not daring to breathe.
His
life and death now depends entirely on Thorian's thoughts.
He
only hoped that the other party would leave him a chance to live, so that he
could even retire and return to the countryside.
As
for resistance, he would never dare to do that.
Not
to mention that those standing around him were the elite of the law enforcement
team, pickers among thousands, he had no chance of winning at all.
Even
if we take a step back, what would happen even if we managed to escape from the
palace?
The
monk can escape but the temple cannot. What should his family do?
"You
don't know you're wrong, you just know you're dying!"
Thorian
said coldly: "You have committed such a heinous crime that can never be
redeemed even by death. I absolutely cannot forgive you. Otherwise, how can I
convince others in the future?"
When
these words were spoken, the city guard commander was struck by lightning and
his face turned pale.
He
still had a glimmer of hope and begged, "My lord, I have served West
Lucozia for many years. Even if I have made some mistakes, they are not
punishable by death. Please have mercy on me, lord!"
"Fuck
you!"
Thorian
was furious. He kicked the city guard commander over and shouted, "You
burned, killed, looted, and committed all kinds of evil. Is that a mistake? I’m
being merciful if I don't skin you alive!"
The
more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Thorian raised his hand and said,
"First, drag him out and give him fifty lashes! If he's not dead, bring
him in and tell him to start talking!"
"yes!"
Wang
Mang took action personally, used the dragon rope, tied up the city guard
commander, and forcibly dragged him out.
Under
the restriction of the dragon rope, the city guard commander's cultivation was
completely wasted, and he couldn't even muster the slightest bit of true
energy.
In
the end, Wang Mang pinned the city guard commander to the ground and hit him
fifty times with a stick.
He
used all his strength in every strike, without showing any mercy.
After
being beaten with fifty sticks, the city guard commander's waist and buttocks
were covered in blood and flesh, a horrible sight.
During
this period, the city guard general fainted once and was then woken up by being
splashed with cold water.
After
torturing him, Wang Mang dragged the city guard commander, who looked like a
dead dog, into the conference room again.
At
this moment, the city guard commander didn't even have the strength to beg for
mercy.
He
dropped his head, looking half dead.
"I'll
ask you a question and you answer it. As long as you tell the truth, I can let
you go quickly! Otherwise, I'll let you experience all 108 punishments in the
Black Prison one by one. Do you understand?!" Thorian shouted
condescendingly.
"Understand...Understood."
The city guard commander said weakly.
"I'm
asking you, is Zhengjun Duncan still alive?" Thorian asked.
"He,
is already dead..." The city guard commander did not dare to hide it.
"Where
is the body? Who killed him?" Thorian asked.
"General
Long Wei sent assassins to ambush him. Zhengjun Duncan did not want to be
captured, so he committed suicide."
The
city guard general paused and continued, "As for the body...it has been
burned to ashes by General Long Wei."
Hearing
this, Thorian frowned.
Although
he had expected it, the result of leaving no trace behind still made him
furious.
"Take
him down and make him sign!" Thorian ordered.
Two
guards from the law enforcement team immediately lifted up the city guard
commander.
"Young
Prince... I have committed numerous crimes, and I do not deserve to die. But my
family members are all innocent, please show some mercy..." The city guard
general begged for mercy with a sad face.
He
knew he was going to die, and now he just hoped not to implicate his relatives
and friends.
"You
have been corrupt and abused your power over the years, and your family members
are also beneficiaries. They are by no means innocent!"
Thorian was too lazy to talk nonsense, and waved his hand: "Take him down, keep him under strict guard, and behead him at noon tomorrow!" - Marinien
