Chapter 1072 Are you cruel enough?
Seeing the dragon sedan chair carrying Chen Qingle all the way through the city, Chen Qingle was sent into the imperial city.
Chen Qingle sat on the comfortable sedan chair and looked at the numerous palaces of the imperial city. She felt as if she had come to this imperial city for the first time. Everything seemed so strange, but yet familiar.
The sedan chair carrying Chen Qingle did not head towards the Xuanlian Temple. Chen Qingle frowned and called the messenger to ask: "Where are you taking this king to?"
"The Holy Spirit has told me to return to His Highness. His Highness will naturally know when he arrives."
Chen Qingle frowned, but since it was Emperor Xuanlian, Chen Qingle did not dare to ask any more questions and could only watch the scene in front of him with fear.
Soon, the sedan chair carried Chen Qingle into a vast garden. The four big characters at the entrance of the garden made Chen Qingle feel complicated.
"Royal Cemetery!"
Going deep into the cemetery, Chen Qingle saw the tall back of Emperor Xuanlian in front of a newly built mausoleum.
The sedan chair was put down, and the messenger knelt down and said, "Report to the Holy One to see that the Dragon King has arrived."
"Go down."
"According to the order!"
Soon, this group of people carried the sedan chair and left the royal cemetery quickly, leaving only Chen Qingle and Emperor Xuanlian in the cemetery, as well as the bleak autumn wind in the cemetery.
Chen Qingle's heart was tense at this moment. He had never been alone with the man in front of him, so he couldn't help but feel a little excited and nervous.
"My son, please see your father!"
Emperor Xuanlian waved his hand and said calmly: "Come, come to me. There are no outsiders here. You and I, father and son, don't be rigid."
Chen Qingle quickly came to the side of Emperor Xuanlian. At this moment, he could clearly see the tombstone in front of the mausoleum. When he saw the large characters engraved on the tombstone, tears could not help but burst out of Chen Qingle's eyes.
Tomb of Concubine Ming!
"Crying? My son is not that weak."
After hearing this, Chen Qingle quickly wiped away her tears and stood beside Emperor Xuanlian.
"Qingle, have you ever blamed your father for not treating you mother and son well?"
Chen Qingle hurriedly shook his head: "There is no fault in the world as a king and father, no matter whether he is a minister or a son, there is no reason to blame the king." After hearing this, Emperor Xuanlian smiled calmly and said: "These words do not make any sense. In fact, I did not treat you mother and son well, I don’t deny it, but if I had to choose again, I would still do it. Do you know why?”
Chen Qingle didn't dare to accept this.
"My son, I don't know."
Emperor Xuanlian said: "Actually, I loved your mother and concubine very much back then. Although you came late, I didn't lack love for you since you were a child. I often held you in my arms to review memorials and accompanied you to hunt monsters. do you remember?"
Chen Qingle felt sour in her heart when she heard this: "My father's love for my son, I dare not forget."
"But remember, the royal family is ruthless. Although you and I are flesh and blood, I haven't treated you as a real son. Don't feel aggrieved. I have sixty-five sons, but I don't treat them as a real son." A true son doesn’t just treat you harshly.”
Emperor Xuanlian sighed: "Because I don't know who of you will survive in the end. The Xuanlian trial is unavoidable. This is a rule set by our ancestors and an iron law that our superiors have explicitly ordered to implement. Only the one who survives in the end will Only then will I treat him as my real child.”
"Otherwise, every round of trials will require me to bear the pain of losing my son. Even if I have combined cultivation, how can I bear it?"
Chen Qingle has known this for a long time. He has speculated on Emperor Xuanlian's thoughts countless times. He feels that in the position of Emperor Xuanlian, he can only do this.
"Father has father's difficulties."
Emperor Xuanlian continued: "The reason why I treat you harshly is because you have let me down. The Xuanlian Dynasty has a history of millions of years. As early as the Yingtian clan was still prospering in Wanfang Continent, our Xuanlian Dynasty already existed "
"Cowardice and kindness have no place in the Xuanlian Dynasty!"
Emperor Xuanlian put his strong hands on Chen Qingle's shoulders, and stared at Chen Qingle with his deep eyes: "If you want to live, if you want to establish dignity in the world, the first thing you need is not strong strength, but a heart. Dare to give up everything. Tell Father, are you cruel enough now?"
Chen Qingle wanted to open his mouth and say that he was enough, but his heart stopped him from saying this.
Emperor Xuanlian saw the hesitation in his eyes and said, "It's not that you are not cruel enough, it's just that you haven't discovered your heart as hard as iron yet."
Emperor Xuanlian clapped his hands, and a team of Imperial City Guards arrived. Each of them escorted the prisoner, and many of them looked familiar to Chen Qingle.
When he thought about it carefully, these were the people who bullied and insulted him back then!
The imperial city guards were lined up, and there were actually 152 people in total, including fifty-three god-transformation monks, and even three Void Refining Stage monks.
When they saw Chen Qingle, they hurriedly knelt down, crying and wailing: "Your Highness, I was wrong! Forgive me! I am a wolf-hearted person and should not have offended Your Highness!"
"Your Highness, please spare my life! I am willing to work for Your Highness from now on!"
"Your Highness, please spare your life! Your Majesty, please spare your life!"
Chen Qingle was completely confused when she saw this formation.
Emperor Xuanlian walked up to him and said: "Although I have allowed others to bully you over the years, I have secretly recorded every person who bullied you. Qingle, my father will give you a chance to take revenge. You are now Have the power to put all of them to death.”
Execute them all? !
Chen Qingle stared at Emperor Xuanlian with wide eyes.
"Father... this... this is not right! Father, please think twice!"
"Are you unwilling? Or can't you be cruel?"
Emperor Xuanlian's tone turned cold.
Chen Qingle's breathing suddenly became rapid.
"Father... it's not that I don't dare, but these people are all very skilled and can contribute to the Xuanlian Dynasty. Killing them like this will really waste the strength of the Xuanlian Dynasty. It's better to send them to the border and let them die for the country!"
"And many of them have only offended me verbally, and I don't even remember some of them... How can they be killed!"
Emperor Xuanlian continued in a cold voice: "Do you think the reason why the Xuanlian Dynasty can survive for a long time is because of these trash?" Emperor Xuanlian pressed Chen Qingle's shoulder and said softly: "The fate of the Xuanlian clan will always be the only one on the shoulders of the royal family. It doesn't matter whether they live or die."
Wow!
After that, a gilded blade floated in front of Chen Qingle.
"Answer me again, do you have the heart to do this?"
Chen Qingle's breathing became heavier and heavier. He immediately took the gilded blade and came to the first person.
Seeing that Chen Qingle was unable to take action, Emperor Xuanlian's words were like whispers in his ears.
"Do you want me to repeat their crimes to you?"
"Yao Wuyang, the keeper of the East Suburb Cemetery, in the 6421st year of Hanyuan, when you were worshipping Ming Fei, he spoke rudely, saying that your mother was a lonely ghost and that you were a lowly creature that no one would accept..."
Puff!
Chen Qingle's shaking hands raised the knife and the man's head fell immediately.
