Douluo Continent: Starting with Ten Kings of Hell, Shocking Qian Renxue

Chapter 5: The truth comes out, and the Qin family's injustice is cleared!

"Perhaps I must execute him!"

As the king of the Primordial Hell, no one in the Douluo World could see through Qian Renxue's disguise, but King Qin Guang saw through it at a glance, which is why he whispered to her.

Even at the very end, his eyes were filled with murderous intent!

To appear before the emperor with a false face and engage in casual conversation is a crime of deceiving the emperor.

Kill!

【…】

Upon hearing this, Qin Zheng first glanced at him, then nodded almost imperceptibly, indicating that he understood and that he should not act rashly, but on the surface, he showed no change in expression.

King Qin Guang cannot be moved yet.

Because when Qian Renxue appeared, Qin Zheng had something to do!

This matter concerns the innocence of all the Qin family members who died in battle!

"Who do we have here? It's His Highness the Crown Prince."

He paused, a cold smile gradually creeping onto his lips. "However, today, I've ended up like this with that old dog, Xueye."

"His Highness the Crown Prince has come here, still thinking of protecting this eunuch who wanted to kill me."

"Aren't you afraid I'll kill you too?"

His words were simple, yet they contained an extreme killing intent.

The atmosphere in the arena, which had been gradually calming down, became oppressive again after Qin Zheng's words!

However, Qian Renxue's expression remained unchanged, but a hint of amusement gradually flickered in her eyes as she looked at Qin Zheng.

Given her intelligence, she was naturally able to discern the other party's intentions from their words, which clearly indicated that they were not interested in fighting her.

After all, she believed that although she was of noble status and had great power behind her, she was not afraid of anyone in the world. However, Qin Zheng did not know this!

Given the strength of the titled Douluo beside Qin Zheng, if he wanted to kill her, he wouldn't need to waste time with all this talk; he could simply send someone to kill her right now.

Therefore, Qin Zheng's act of threatening without ordering the Title Douluo behind him to take action is undoubtedly an attempt to intimidate him.

interesting……

He's trying to intimidate me; is he trying to reconcile with the Heavenly Dou Empire?

Upon realizing this, a hint of disappointment flashed across Qian Renxue's pale purple eyes.

She didn't step forward to chat with Qin Zheng because she wanted to see him express his submission.

【…】

"Your Highness, please understand. I had absolutely no intention of harming the Duke."

"Everything I have done is clearly in accordance with His Majesty's and His Highness's wishes!"

Just as Qian Renxue was starting to feel bored.

Beside him, the old eunuch who had been watching suddenly started howling again, tearfully recounting everything that had just happened.

What he said was mostly true, but his words implied that Qin Zheng was using his status to bully him and was framing him!

"Your Highness, you are wise enough to know that this old servant is merely a eunuch! I cannot even touch the threshold of the Soul King realm, so how could I possibly dare to plot against His Excellency the Duke?"

"Your Highness, please understand! Your Excellency, please understand!" the old eunuch cried out in anguish.

"I know."

Qian Renxue spoke calmly, her cold gaze falling on Qin Zheng, who stood not far away, filled with difficulty:

"Duke Qin, as the current Marshal of the Imperial Guard, I am responsible for punishing those who assassinate Soul Masters. It is imperative that I intervene in such matters. I hope you will forgive my inconvenience!"

Her words were polite, but in reality, they were firm beneath the surface.

The subtext is that she's determined to handle this matter!

She was also eager to see what Duke Qin, who had risen from adversity, was thinking.

【…】

"How dare you! You dare interfere in His Majesty's affairs?"

However, before Qin Zheng could react, King Qin Guang suddenly flew into a rage, glaring at Qian Renxue with murderous intent.

"Your Majesty, I request permission to fight and kill this man!"

"Alright. Minister Qin, there's no need to be angry." Qin Zheng gently stopped him, but without any hint of blame, saying lightly, "After all, this Crown Prince was merely fulfilling his duty."

When King Qin Guang pointed his finger at her and berated her, Qian Renxue narrowed her eyes slightly, clearly showing some coldness, but in the end she just smiled and let it go, "Thank you for your understanding, Duke Qin."

"You're thanking me too soon." Qin Zheng shook his head, his previously gentle tone vanishing, replaced by coldness. "If you want me to spare his life, of course I will!"

"Don't say I didn't give you a chance. Make him tell me what really happened to my grandfather! Tell me, and I might spare his life!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Zheng's gaze turned icy cold!

The only reason he didn't fight to the death with Qian Renxue when she appeared was because of his grandfather.

Admittedly, he could kill these people at will, but that would destroy his grandfather's innocence!

Having been reborn into this world, Qin Zheng is not the kind of ungrateful person who would turn his back on his country.

All he wants is justice!

【…】

"Speak the truth?" Qian Renxue looked at Qin Zheng thoughtfully, then smiled faintly, "So that's what you were thinking?"

"Tell him what happened."

"This prince also wishes to hear it!"

As she said this, she didn't even glance at the old eunuch, but stared intently at Qin Zheng, her eyes filled with interest!

"This..." The old eunuch beside him, who had been protesting his innocence, suddenly changed his expression. He did know exactly what had happened to Earl Qin.

It's even related to him!

But if he says it in front of so many people, will he get away with it later?

All he wanted was to live!

At this moment, the old eunuch's heart was filled with conflict.

"Tell me, and I, the Crown Prince, will guarantee your life!" Qian Renxue seemed to know what he was thinking.

Upon hearing Qian Renxue's words, the old eunuch's expression shifted uncertainly.

But then she thought again, no matter what, Qian Renxue was still the Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, and Qin Zheng was not someone who didn't keep his word.

Since you promised to let him live, you shouldn't go back on your word, right?

Thinking of this, the old eunuch no longer hesitated and immediately recounted the whole story.

It turns out that on that day, when the Spirit Hall was carrying out assassinations, Duke Qin did not help. On the contrary, he took the initiative to protect the young spirit master.

Even though he was severely injured in this battle, he did not retreat!

However, many imperial generals, in order to absolve themselves of responsibility, shifted the blame onto the Duke of Qin, who was severely damaged after the war.

The old eunuch was the most important link in this chain.

Since ancient times, emperors have been close to eunuchs. Many generals promised that once this matter was over and the aftermath of the war was appeased, they would give the old eunuch a thousand gold pieces!

With treacherous officials in power within the court and unscrupulous generals framing him without, Emperor Xueye personally executed Duke Qin and banished the entire Duke's family to the ranks of commoners, never to rise again!

As for the surrounding nobles? They're just obstacles to be cleared along the way to silence them!

After listening to the old eunuch's account, Qin Zheng's face turned cold, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.

"Great! That's really great!"

"I had considered that the civil official and that old dog Xueye were in cahoots, but I never imagined it was you, the eunuch, who colluded with the military general to frame my entire Qin family!"

Not only was Qin Zheng furious, but the many commoners and nobles around him who were kept in the dark were also very angry and cursed.

"What a beast! We haven't done anything wrong, yet he wants to wipe out our families and clans along the way. Is this what a great emperor should do?"

"What utter nonsense about a ruler ordering his subject to die, and the subject having no choice but to die! Such people are utterly shameless!"

"And this treacherous official deserves to be torn apart by five horses!"

Despite being verbally abused by the crowd, the old eunuch remained silent.

He just looked at Qin Zheng, hoping that Qin Zheng would let him go.
