The First Tyrant of Daxia

At this time, the clattering sound of armored footsteps could be heard, very densely.

More than a dozen people were dragged to the open space by the imperial guards, wailing in agony, and some even defecated and urinated.

"No!"

"I am innocent, I don't want to die..."

"Please, let me go. As long as you let me go, I will give you any money or real estate you want!"

These wealthy businessmen were terrified and begged for mercy with disheveled hair. They originally wanted to surrender to the grandson of the Emperor of Sui Dynasty and strive for the merit of following the dragon. At the very least, they would like to be like Xiliang.

Unexpectedly, he was arrested before he even had time to stroll around Xiangyang City.

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers were killed and blood was shed, and Yang Taian's life or death was unknown.

How can they not be afraid?

"Humph!"

Qin Yun's heavy cold snort erupted in the cold winter night, which was very abrupt.

Dozens of people trembled all over and looked at each other with horror.

When they saw Qin Yun's tall and majestic figure and the dozens of wolf-like eyes behind him, their brains went blank, their limbs trembled, their wailing suddenly stopped, and they couldn't utter a single word.

"Speak, why don't you say anything?"

"I'm here, don't you want to beg for mercy and save your lives?" Qin Yun sneered and approached step by step.

The countless torches behind him followed closely, creating a very oppressive feeling.

More than a dozen people were trembling, not daring to speak, and sweating profusely.

"Hehe." Qin Yun laughed coldly: "Li Guangda, you are still here? I thought you were going to commit suicide out of fear of punishment."

"Yes, yes, you were very impressive when you scolded me on the city wall yesterday!"

Li Guangda, who was hiding in the crowd, trembled, his face full of fear and regret.

He gritted his teeth, rushed out of the crowd, and knelt on the ground with a bang.

He raised his head and sweat rolled down his cheeks: "Your Majesty!"

"That's not the case. That beast Yang Taian threatened me to do that. If I didn't do it, he would kill me!"

"Not only will you kill me, you will also massacre the entire city!"

"As the parent official of the people of Xiangyang, I... I can't bear it!" He said anxiously, without blushing or heart beating.

Upon hearing this, everyone was furious!

"You bastard, you really dare to say that!"

"Are you doing this for the people? If you dare to flatter yourself again, I will chop you to death!"

"So many brothers and comrades have died, you must pay with your life!"

Many hot-tempered generals roared, their pupils dilated, and looked extremely ferocious.

If Qin Yun hadn't been here, they would have taken action.

Qin Yun suppressed everyone's anger and did not blame anyone. After all, tens of thousands of people had just died in the battle. Who could remain calm in the face of a traitor?

He looked towards Li Guangda with a dim gaze.

Li Guangda knelt down and looked up, sweat pouring down his face.

"Lord Li, if that's what you said, then you were forced to open the gates and surrender the city unconditionally?"

"Were you forced to kill the generals and civil servants who refused to surrender?" Qin Yun asked calmly with a hint of sarcasm.

Li Guangda's face turned red, cold sweat broke out, and he was unable to explain himself.

Qin Yun was so fascinating in the dead of winter. He took one look at him and knew that he would not be able to survive.

He gritted his teeth, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes.

Suddenly, his whole body exploded!

"The Dog Emperor!"

"I just surrender to the Sui Dynasty, so what?"

"Even if I die, I will take you with me!"

Everyone was shocked. They never expected that Li Guangda would be so cowardly and dare to do something bad to His Majesty.

"Be careful, Your Majesty!"

The Royal Guards were the first to react.

They can stop it.

But Qin Yun was faster than them. With a fierce light flashing in his eyes, he quickly drew his sword, which was stained with frost and made a roaring sound.

"damn thing!"

"die!"

puff!

The knife was so fast that it directly cut Li Guangda's neck. His ferocious look froze, followed by pain!

He covered his neck with his hands, blood spurted out, and he staggered and fell.

The pupils were dilated and twitching constantly.

I wanted to speak but couldn't, and could only die in despair bit by bit.

"Ah!" More than a dozen wealthy businessmen screamed, their eyes full of fear, and they retreated one after another, still in shock.

Qin Yun glanced at Li Guangda coldly, his knife dripping, and then looked at the dozen wealthy businessmen.

He gave a cold order: "All of you will be executed and hanged on the city wall of Xiangyang as a sacrifice for the dead souls!"

"In addition, we order a strict investigation of the wealthy merchants who have close ties with Xiangyang City, and investigate three generations of them!"

"As long as there is a problem, kill them all!"

"Yes!" everyone roared, their blood boiling.

This group of people are traitors and collude with the remnants of the previous dynasty. Each of their deeds is enough to kill all nine generations of their clan.

"No, Your Majesty!"

"We know we were wrong."

"Please, let my family go. They are innocent. This is all my fault."

More than a dozen people cried and wailed, begging for mercy, and their foreheads almost broke the floor.

Qin Yun sneered and ignored it.

With a wave of his hand, more than a dozen people were quickly dragged away by the imperial guards. The sound of crying for their parents lingered in the night sky, sounding extremely desolate.

Immediately afterwards, in the snowy night, screams of more than a dozen people were heard.

They were hanged, and the death would be slow and painful.

Hearing these voices, Qin Yun became extremely cold. After experiencing so many things, his heart towards his enemies had become as cold as iron.

Being kind to them is being cruel to yourself!

Looking at the large number of imperial guards in action, Yue Nu couldn't help but step forward and say, "If one person makes a mistake, he will be held responsible. Why commit so many sins of killing?"

Qin Yun turned around, slightly displeased: "Can you guarantee that their family will not retaliate against me after gaining power?"

"Aren't these wealthy merchants the remnants of the Sui Dynasty who were not killed?"

"Daxia is kind to them, have they ever thought about keeping quiet?"

"I will never make the same mistake again. I must root out the problem!"

Hearing this, Yue Nu was speechless. She didn't want to get involved, but after finding her biological sister, her heart was no longer as cold as before.

"Womanly kindness!" Qin Yun was still angry as he walked and couldn't help but snorted.

Many of the confidants shrank their necks when they heard this, and then followed.

Yue Nu’s pretty face fell instantly!

Originally, she saw a passionate, fearless, and iron-blooded Qin Yun on the battlefield, and her impression of him changed.

But these four words completely shattered these impressions!

I feel even more upset!

At this moment, suddenly, the imperial guards rushed over.

"Report, Your Majesty!"

"The horseman from outside the pass came back quickly and said he had important information to tell you."

"It seems that General Mu's men escorted him to Xiangyang City!"

Hearing this, Qin Yun and the others paused, turned around suddenly, and their eyes widened!

Maldives?

The only survivor of the illegal caravan outside the Great Wall, Qin Yun had asked him to investigate Yang Taian’s underground dragon palace before he came to Yuzhou.

Is there any news?

Could it be that the underground dragon palace is Yang Taian’s lair?
