Chapter 26 Want to Die? In Your Dreams!
In the dungeon, everyone looked at Ye Xuan and knew that it was definitely not as simple as a simple chat. He was hiding a dagger behind his smile. He must be holding it in again.
Ye Xuan came in front of Shi Xiangxiang. âLetâs have a deeper understanding first⦠I hope you can be honest, otherwise, my small whip and big bat are very cruel.â
âKill me,â Shi Xiangxiang said.
Ye Xuan nodded. âYou want to die? In your dreams!â
As soon as he finished speaking, he came to Long Huaâs side and asked, âWhat about you? Do you want to have a chat with me?â
Long Hua replied, âNo comment. Just give me a quick death!â
Ye Xuanâs expression changed slightly. âDo you all want to die so much? Iâll fulfill your wish.â
With a sword cry, the Xuanyuan Sword was unsheathed, and it cut his throat, and blood splattered. Long Hua looked at Ye Xuan in shock as if to say youâre being serious.
Ye Xuan returned to Shi Xiangxiang. âWhat are you not going to talk about? Miss Shiâs beauty is extraordinary, itâs a pity to kill you. If I cripple your cultivation and send you to the Hundred Flower Innâ¦â
âHmm, thatâs a good idea.â
Shi Xiangxiangâs expression changed. âYe Xuan, I can be killed but not humiliated!â
Ye Xuan said with a smile. âZhao Gao, cripple her cultivation.â
Zhao Gao accepted the order and walked toward Shi Xiangxiang. The latterâs face turned pale. âYou can continue humiliating me. Ye Xuan, what do you want to know?â
âWhy did the Nine States Alliance send you here?â Ye Xuan asked. âWhere is the Nine States Allianceâs headquarters? And where is the Empress Dowager?â
Shi Xiangxiangâs face was ashen. Never in her wildest dreams would she have thought that death would be such a luxury to her. âThe order I received was to overturn Great Xia. The Nine States Allianceâs headquarters is in Nine States City. As for the Empress Dowager, she was killed by me ten years ago.â
Subverting Great Xia.
Ye Xuan narrowed his eyes. âDo you think Iâm easy to fool?â
Buzz.
The Xuanyuan Sword cut across Shi Xiangxiangâs body. Blood gushed out, and the wound was so deep that one could see her bones.
Cold sweat broke out on Shi Xiangxiangâs forehead. âYe Xuan, Iâve told you everything I know. Just give me a quick death.â
Ye Xuan gave Zhao Gao a look. âArrange it. I hate it when people lie to me.â
Zhao Gao stepped forward and crushed Shi Xiangxiangâs Dantian with his spiritual Qi. âYour Highness, Iâll send her to the Hundred Flower Inn now.â
The Six Sword Slave was about to leave with Shi Xiangxiang when a weak voice came. âYe Xuan, will you kill me if I tell you?â
âThatâll depend on whether your information is valuable or not,â Ye Xuan replied.
âThe Ninth Prince, Iâm here on his orders to overturn Great Xia and take the throne for him,â Shi Xiangxiang said.
He didnât expect to have an unexpected harvest.
The Ninth Prince was in charge of the Southern Kingdom, which was the richest place in Great Xia. He did not expect him to be interested in the throne.
âThe Ninth Prince is also a member of the Nine States Alliance.â
âYes, he has a very high status in the Nine States Alliance,â Shi Xiangxiang said weakly.
âYour performance was very good, so I will grant you death.â Ye Xuan watched as Zhao Gao was leaving with her. âYou three, are you going to confess, or do you want me to interrogate you?â
Li Lingxiao, Li Chuntian, and Yan Yong were all terrified. It was only at this moment that they realized they knew nothing about Ye Xuan. Grand Preceptor Li Chuntian hurriedly said, âYour Highness, on the account that I have been preparing the rations, please give me another chance.â
Ye Xuan said, âPreparing rations. How much money have you embezzled that was used to buy rations over the years? Just this alone is enough to kill your entire family. Xuan Jian, write down everything they say. If they donât say anything, kill them all.â
After saying that, he walked out of the dungeon.
In the house, Zhao Gao followed Ye Xuan closely. âTake Dragnet to the Southern Kingdom and bring the Ninth Prince back.â
âYes, Sir!â Zhao Gao bowed.
The Eastern Palace.
In the study, Ye Xuan stared at the map in front of him and raised his hand to circle the Nine States City with cinnabar. This city was thousands of miles away from Great Xia, but they could reach the Xia Palace. They were definitely not just here to assist the Ninth Prince in his ascension.
The Nine States Allianceâs true scheme was to control the world.
âYour Highness, Patriarch Xuanyuan has arrived.â
Ye Xuan turned to look at Gao Ying and put down the brush in his hand. âLet him in!â
Xuanyuan Tuo entered the main hall. âI, Xuanyuan Tuo, pay my respects to Your Highness.â
âPatriarch Xuanyuan, you have entered the palace. Are you planning to submit?â
Ye Xuan knew that the Xuanyuan family would surrender when the news of the northern victory spread, so he had expected Xuanyuan Tuo to come.
âYour Highness, the Xuanyuan family shall submit!â Xuanyuan Tuo replied respectfully. âI came to the palace because I want Your Highness to take a look at the Xuanyuan familyâs property.â
Ye Xuan replied with a smile, âIâm free today, so lead the way, Patriarch Xuanyuan.â
After leaving the palace, Xuanyuan Tuo led them to the Xuanyuan familyâs slave market. âYour Highness, there will be a slave fight later. Are you interested in watching?â
âSure!â Anyway, there was nothing to do in the palace for the time being, so he can stay in the slave market and watch.
Xuanyuan Tuo explained, âYour Highness, the slaves here come from all over the world. There are swordsmen from the Great Han Empire, elves from Tianyu Empire, barbarians from the Northern Barbarian Empire, and fox men from the Green Hill Forest. The fox women are especially popular, and they are even more priceless now.â
Ye Xuan nodded, and with his hands behind his back, he walked over to where the slaves were displayed. âPatriarch Xuanyuan, besides participating in the fights, are these slaves also for sale?â
âBarbarians, fox men, and elves are easier to sell,â Xuanyuan Tuo responded. âBut itâs hard to sell the swordsmen of the Great Han Empire because theyâre cultivators. Ordinary people canât control them.â
At this moment, a low roar was heard, like that of an angry beast. Ye Xuan looked in the direction of the sound. âPatriarch Xuanyuan, this isâ¦â
âYour Highness, this is a barbarian. Ever since he was bought, he would go crazy from time to time. He would be like this every time, and his destructive power is extremely terrifying. I canât do anything, so I can only lock him up.â
âOh, really? Take me to see.â âYour Highness, this person is extremely powerful and brutal. For your safety, itâs better not to go.â
âItâs fine!â
Xuanyuan Tuo saw that Ye Xuan was determined to go, so he could only lead the way.
A figure appeared in the huge black iron cage. He was shaped like a tower and his muscles and bones were bulging. It was as if there was a volcano in his body that could erupt at any time. Ten dark iron chains bound his body, but every time he roared, the cage would move. âPatriarch Xuanyuan, whatâs his name?â
âYour Highness, he doesnât have a name. I gave him the name Iron Slave.â
âOpen the cage. Iâll go in and take a look!â
Ye Xuan knew that Iron Slave was a fierce person. If he could take him under his command, he would be an expert with a little training.
âYour Highness, you canât. If Iron Slave is enraged, Iâm afraid it will hurt you.â Ye Xuan walked to the front of the cell and looked at Iron Slave. âIâll take you out of here, how about it?â
Iron Slave looked at Ye Xuan quietly, and the manic aura on his body was restrained a lot. âOpen the door.â
Xuanyuan Tuo gestured to the old man beside him. âHurry up and open the door!â Ye Xuan entered the cage and stood in front of Iron Slave. âDo you want to go outside? I know you want freedom. I can give you all of this.â
âI donât believe you,â Iron Slave replied. As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly launched an attack on Ye Xuan in a frenzy, and the sound of dark iron chains clanking against each other was heardâ¦
âYour Highness, itâs dangerous!â Xuanyuan Tuo was shocked. If Ye Xuan was injured in the slave market, the Xuanyuan family would be doomed. âHurry up and invite Elder Wu here.â
âPatriarch Xuanyuan, tell everyone to leave. I have something to say to Iron Slave. This is an order,â Ye Xuan said lightly. His body flashed and he dodged Iron Slaveâs violent attack. âYou canât hit me.â Iron Slave glared at Ye Xuan as if to say, let you run, but when I catch you, Iâllâ¦
Heheheâ¦â
