Caught in the Crossfire Without Lifting a Finger
But just as Qian Ye was sizing up the three great nobles...🎈💛 💜🔥
The gazes of the three great kings and nobles also fell upon him at this moment.
Normally, the three of them wouldn't have given him a second glance.
However, he was an exception.
The reason is simple: he was sitting alone on the wall, not kneeling before the three men like the more than three thousand innocent criminals.
That alone was enough to enrage the three of them.
And he suspected, his suspicions, that he was the one who burned down the ancestral land.
The three exchanged glances, and the Battle King, standing in the middle, finally spoke, pointing towards Qian Ye and saying to the soldiers around him, "Arrest that person."
"Charge!" The squad leader gave the order, and a dozen or so soldiers charged madly toward Qian Ye.
They then took out their knives, guns, spears, and swords, surrounding Qian Ye in the middle and slowly narrowing the area.
Damn~
Qian Ye cursed inwardly, feeling truly caught in the crossfire.
I was truly innocent, but because of their tyranny, they arrested me without distinguishing right from wrong.
They will also be executed innocently.
So, in order to survive, I can't even be a bystander anymore.
With a knife to his throat, he had no choice but to accept the situation, even if he didn't want to cause trouble.
Qian Ye didn't plan to resist for the time being, wanting to see how these people would frame him before deciding what to do next. ★🎁 🐉♝
There was no other way; with a knife to my throat, I couldn't just die unjustly. I had to seek justice for myself.
Without a doubt, Qian Ye was escorted by a dozen soldiers to the three great princes and treated as a criminal.
The gazes of the three great princes now fell upon Qian Ye, their eyes filled with haughty and cold-blooded expressions.
In the eyes of the three, Qian Ye and the innocent people kneeling on the ground waiting to be beheaded were nothing more than ants.
The three of them wouldn't even blink an eye if they were killed.
The reason is simple: they are kings and nobles, powerful figures, and they need no reason to kill.
There's only one reason: because they are kings and nobles.
In the original Perfect World novel, before her death, Yu Meng asked the Battle King, "Why did you do this to me? You clearly found out that I wasn't the one who burned down the Stone Clan's ancestral land!"
The Battle King bluntly told him, "Just because I am a king, I have the power to execute you."
Yu Meng's death was quite gruesome; first, her hands were chopped off, then her legs, and finally she was dragged out and beheaded.
However, his death was deserved, and it was not a pity.
But these three thousand people, including the elderly and children, are all innocent. For the three princes to indiscriminately execute them all is rather cruel.
Qian Ye originally didn't want to get involved, after all, this was Stone Kingdom's usual style—he could control it for a while, but not forever. ☺🐯 💲🐉
But things are different now; Qian Ye has also been arrested as a criminal.
Therefore, they not only had to save themselves, but also these three thousand innocent people.
In the original book, the Rain Clan's descendants in the Western Frontier and their long-established power were all captured and slaughtered at the Battle King's command, their heads piled up like mountains.
The Rain Clan is considered the second largest clan in the Stone Kingdom.
They are all bloodlines left behind by the Rain God in the Lower Realm realm.
Second only to the Stone Clan.
Because the Stone Clan ruled the imperial power, they were always superior to the Rain Clan.
Originally, the two clans had no hatred or major disagreements, and they even had a marriage alliance.
Shi Yi's birth mother is a good example. As the daughter of the Rain Clan's chief, she married Shi Ziteng and gave birth to Shi Yi, a supreme being with Double Pupils.
The hatred between the two clans was also instigated by Shi Yi's mother.
If it weren't for Shi Yi's mother's greed in digging out Shi Hao's Supreme Being Bone for her son, the two major clans wouldn't have started fighting each other.
Of course, the Rain Clan has never been dealing with the entire Stone Clan, but only with Shi Hao's family.
After all, it was Shi Ziling who killed Shi Yi's mother, and his mother was the beloved daughter of the Rain Clan, which led to this escalation and the current situation.
Moreover, this matter has not ended there and will continue to escalate.
It wasn't until the Big Stone Sacrifice itself to the Little Stone that it finally came to an end.
Although Qian Ye has now transmigrated, Yu Yunxi, who was killed by Shi Ziling, is not dead, but was saved by him.
But no one knew about this, and naturally, a feud ensued.
The Battle King glanced at Qian Ye, said nothing more, and then ordered the soldiers beside him, "Cut off his head?"
For someone of his status, killing an ordinary person wouldn't even warrant a word.
No reason is needed; if someone is deemed deserving of death, then they must be killed.
It's just a matter of saying a few words.
If someone asked him why, he would only say one thing at most, "Because I am a king."
In short, this is enough to prove his strength Battle King, and also enough to prove that his power in the Stone Kingdom is beyond question.
Of course, this excludes the Stone Emperor.
This Battle King is from the Stone Clan. He is not just Battle King, but someone who is backed by the Stone Clan. In addition, the Stone Clan is the ruling family of the Stone Kingdom, with immense power and many strong members. They are generally not suppressed, so he acts decisively and fearlessly.
Moreover, because of Shi Hao's burning of the Stone Clan's Second Ancestral Land, the original book not only ordered the slaughter of all the Rain Clan members and forces stationed in the Western Frontier Western Frontier, as well as the nearby residents, but also implicated the Martial King's Manor's Mansion, resulting in another wave of deaths at the Martial King's Manor.
This incident wouldn't have escalated to this extent, resulting in so many deaths.
It all stems from the problem with the Battle King that the Stone Emperor sent down this time.
It stems from personal grievances stemming from official business, and contains elements of using public office for private gain.
The reason is actually very simple: this Battle King greatly admires Shi Ziling. Ever since Shi Ziling fell from grace and was exiled to the Second Ancestral Land, the Battle King has harbored resentment for a long time.
He just hadn't found a reason to vent his anger.
This time, Shi Hao burned down the ancestral land, which gave him a reason to kill people. Naturally, he would not miss the opportunity and wiped out the Rain Clan's branches and forces in the Western Frontier. The heads he cut off were piled up like mountains.
Then the Battle King set his sights on the Martial King's Manor, since the matter of Shi Ziling originated from the Martial King's Manor, and since the Martial King's Manor was also involved in this matter, he killed a group of Shi Yi's clansmen to settle the matter.
"Yes!" One of the soldiers responded, drew his broadsword, and slashed at Qian Ye's neck.
When~
However, when the soldier swung his sword, he not only failed to sever Qian Ye's head, but also left a gash in his neck.
Qian Ye's neck, however, was completely unharmed, without a single scratch.
However, this has created a grudge between them and the Battle King.
Although this strike didn't decapitate Qian Ye, he was still killed once.
Qian Ye was naturally enraged and wanted to kill him too.
"This..." The soldier was surprised. He hadn't managed to sever Qian Ye's head with a single strike. Did they really think of him as an ordinary person?
Then came the second and third cuts.
They still couldn't cut off Qian Ye's head.
The soldier had no choice but to look towards the Battle King: "I'm sorry, Battle King, my blade cannot kill him!"
