If Heaven hadn't given birth to me, I would be arrogant.

“I know!” Long Xiaotian asked, looking puzzled. “It took me almost a month to get here, but what’s the problem?”

Seeing his cousin still not understanding, Little Fox was completely speechless: "Cousin, Mude has only been dead for four days, how could his family possibly get here in time?"

At this moment, Cherte, who was already tied up, suddenly shouted, "That's right, I paid these people to come!"

Cherte was a real scoundrel; he knew very well that if he were taken away like this, he would definitely die. But if he confessed now, he might still have a chance. After all, in Long Xiaotian's eyes, he was taking on all this for his own good!

Before anyone could react, Cherte continued shouting, "Zong, although it was wrong of me to pay someone to impersonate Mude's family, I was only trying to force you in a fit of anger. In any case, you admitted to killing Mude yourself!"

"Sigh!" Zong Ze sighed softly and walked up to Cherte. "Cherte, I must say you're quite clever, but do you really think you're the attendant of Prince Long Xiaotian? Do you really think you and Mude are viscounts?"

After saying that, Zong Ze gently patted Cherte's cheek: "This also shows that you are not a nobleman at all. Yes, I killed Mulder, but now I have sufficient evidence to prove that this matter was deliberately framed by you, Cherte and Mulder at the instigation of certain people!"

"Moreover!" Zong Ze smiled, "I believe you have no idea what the consequences are for framing a nobleman. Let me tell you, as a commoner, there is only one outcome for you in framing a nobleman: death. And Mude, as your accomplice, is just going ahead of you!"

After saying this, Zongze suddenly leaned close to Cherte's ear and said in a voice only Cherte could hear, "Don't even mention killing Mude. As an Imperial General, even without any reason, I can find a whole bunch of reasons to kill you!"

"However, whether you live or die in the end is up to me!" Zongze's voice lingered in Cherte's ears like a devil's temptation: "To me, you are like an ant. It doesn't matter whether I kill you or not. So, in the end, it depends on your own performance. Survival or death, I can give you some time to think and consider!"

After speaking, Zong Ze straightened up and turned to look at Long Xiaotian: "Your Highness, Third Prince, do you still need me to provide you with more evidence? If so, I can continue. The next one is this lady!"

Zongze was referring to the woman who claimed to have played games with Cherte and Mude. Zongze believed that this woman might actually be a prostitute, but he was certain that she had been fully involved in the conspiracy to frame him from beginning to end. Otherwise, it would be completely illogical for a prostitute to not only not scream when she saw him kill someone, but to quietly run away instead!

"Senior Zongze!" At this moment, a student watching from the periphery suddenly shouted, "This person is a prostitute, how can you call her 'Madam'?"

"Haha!" Zong Ze laughed heartily and answered loudly, "The so-called 'Madam' is a respectful title for a woman who has a husband. The only difference is whether she has a husband or is promiscuous!"

"Hahaha!" Zong Ze's words aroused a burst of laughter from those around him. The woman blushed deeply, but dared not refute him at all!

"Well?" Zong Ze looked at Long Xiaotian. "Do we still need evidence?"

“Of course it is necessary…” Before Long Xiaotian could finish the word, Little Fox covered his mouth and said, “Hehe, no need, no need! Zongze, there’s definitely something wrong with this. They not only framed you, but also the prince of the friendly empire. I suggest we deal with them properly!”

"Fox!" Long Xiaotian glared angrily at Little Fox. "What do you mean? Are you just going to admit defeat like this? Zong Ze's murder is undeniable. Do you think he can just make up a few excuses and call it a day? How can you do this?"

"Cousin!" Fox said sharply, "Stop talking! If you keep going, we'll be the ones who suffer! Zong Ze clearly knows everything. If he really exposes everything, it won't just be a matter of losing face for us!"

"Uh..." Long Xiaotian finally understood and immediately fell silent!

Although Fox's voice was low, everyone heard it clearly and couldn't help but chuckle. There was no way around it; this third prince of the Dragon Empire was truly too eccentric.

Zong Ze walked up to Long Xiaotian with a mocking expression: "Your Highness, I've told you, I'm very smart! You learned your lesson from me three years ago, how come you have no memory? Look at you, you're not even half as smart as your cousin. To be honest, I'm really worried about the Longteng Empire!"

“You…” Long Xiaotian was speechless with anger, but at this moment, his mind suddenly became sharp, because when Zong Ze mentioned the events of three years ago, Long Xiaotian finally remembered his original purpose in framing Zong Ze!

"Zongze!" Long Xiaotian took a step forward: "I admit that perhaps I did not do well, but you can laugh at me, but you cannot insult my country. Therefore, for the dignity of my Longteng Empire, I, Long Xiaotian, challenge you. If you are a man, please accept my challenge!"

"Oh?" Zong Ze was taken aback. He hadn't expected Long Xiaotian to be so eccentric, actually challenging him at this time and in this setting: "If I remember correctly, His Highness the Third Prince lost once three years ago!"

"Hmph!" Long Xiaotian snorted lightly: "Three years ago I lost to your wisdom, but I heard that you are now a martial arts master. I hope to fight you fair and square, without resorting to any tricks!"

"Alright! No problem, you can choose the time and place yourself!" Zong Ze was already quite annoyed at being framed, but since the other party was the third prince of the Dragon Soaring Empire, he couldn't vent his anger. Now that the third prince himself had issued a challenge, how could Zong Ze refuse?

After saying that, Zong Ze ignored everyone and waved for the guards to take away the people who had been tied up. Zong Ze also turned around and prepared to leave!

"Zong Ze, you've gone too far!" Suddenly, Tes Fox's furious voice rang out: "As a trainee, you've made a mess of this place, and now you're just going to leave like that? Do you even respect me as your director? Do you believe I really will expel you?"

"You think you can do this?" Zong Ze didn't even turn his head. "In terms of rank, I'm a general who commands half a legion, while you're just a worthless diplomat. In terms of title, I'm a hereditary marquis, while you're just a marquis for life. You want to fire me? Go take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror first, see if you have the ability!"
