“Don't you feel ashamed…” The group of people hiding in the dark room were looking at him and felt ashamed of his behavior. However, Ye Lang still looked like he was enjoying it and felt that he was cool!

“Well, you are all good people, so... Do you know each other?” Ye Lang asked.

“No, we have never met!” The thirteen people there immediately shook their heads and denied.

Slap! Ye Lang picked up a wood block and slammed it on the table, shocking everyone.

“Don't lie. If you don't know each other, why did you get sent into the prison together and flatter me as one? It is clear that you are a group!” Ye Lang claimed that these people knew each other, and now he treated them unjustly. “You all commited the crime of conspiracy and rebelling. You deserve the death penalty!”

“No, we didn't do so. How can we dare to do so!” The thirteen people were shocked and replied. It seems that Thirteenth young master wasn’t our savior, but has come here to end our lives. We are done.

And at this time, if you were careful enough, you could find that several people among them looked different...

“Look at you. Your faces tell me that you dare to do so. Your face screams ‘We betrayed the country!’ Well... This case has been solved, pull them out and cut their heads off!” Ye Lang said casually.

“...” This brat, what does he intend to do by doing this?

The Emperor and others intended to stop him, but having arrived to the current situation, they couldn't show themselves!

“Thirteenth young master, don’t just kill us like that. None of us are from Soaring Sky Empire, so even if we planned to rebel, we wouldn't do that here!” One of them said with anxiety.

“Oh, so you just planned to rebel in your own country. That’s none of our business. But you just said that you don't know each other. How do you know that they are not from Soaring Sky Empire? ”Ye Lang smilingly looked at the man.

“That’s because…”

“We got to know each other after being sent here.” The other person lied.

“So you do know each other. You dare lie to me when I am here on behalf of the Emperor, which means you also lied to the Emperor, so you deserve the death penalty. You will have to die!” Ye Lang said with a smile.

“...”

“If you don't want to die, tell me the truth. I do not have much time!” Ye Lang flicked his fingers, showing how relaxed he was.

“What do you want to know?”

“Tell me why you came here. You all came here from different countries and even stayed together. Don't tell me you came here just for a visit!” Ye Lang said.

“I don't understand. In this imperial city, there are many travelers like us. You can find one thousand and eight hundred travelers easily.z” said the man.

“Yes. I can find many foreigners, but it is unusual to catch so many strong-minded people like you. You don't need to tell me your identities. However, you need to know that if ordinary people were caught and tortured, they would even betray their countries in exchange for survival and wealth!” Ye Lang said while looking at them.

“There may be a coincidence if only one man is so strong-minded, but all thirteen of you are so tough, so it is absolutely not a coincidence!”

“...”

“Well, we know that you are spies, but your lives can be spared. I want to know... in the end, how many of our secrets do you know? If you know too many, then I am sorry, but you have to stay here!” Ye Lang said very calmly.

“We know nothing. Even if you question us again, the answer is the same!” One man said.

“Oh, really? Then I ask you a question. What does one plus one equal?” Ye Lang smiled and asked.

“...” At this moment, everyone was in a daze for a while, and they didn't understand why Ye Lang asked such a question. Did he do so in order to test them, or to loosen their vigilance?

“You don't know this?” Ye Lang’s face looked serious.

“I have no idea…” The man was very cautiously, a bit too cautiously. But at this moment, he thought that even if Ye Lang asked him whether he was male or not, he shouldn't answer him.

Otherwise, who knows what Ye Lang will do!

Ye Lang looked at the man, and then very directly said: “You don't know this? Are you kidding me! Come on, take him out and cut his head off!”

“...” All of them were in a daze again..

At this moment, the Emperor and the others understood that Ye Lang found an excuse to kill him. Although this reason was not really good, they could achieve the goal and they accepted it.

But those people didn't understand it. If that man died due to such a reason, wasn’t it arbitrary murder ?

“Go on, take him away and cut his head off. Bring his head back to let them have a look. I am not joking!” Ye Lang flicked his fingers and said indifferently.

“Yes!” The guards followed the order and took the man away who was crying for help, and then...

His crying stopped suddenly, and then the guards brought the man’s head back. Ye Lang did not look at it, perhaps because he couldn't stand it. Perhaps he didn't need to do so!

The person was really dead. The twelve people began to fear him… They thought that Ye Lang was joking with them. They had never heard that Ye Lang didn't value the lives of people.

“Now, I ask you again, why did you come here? This is the last chance, and I will not ask you again!” Ye Lang said.

“We… ” Among those people, some were hesitant.
