Chapter 70 - Retribution (5) (2/2)

"I killed the Empress! If only you could see how she had begged me for her life. Ha! it was hilarious! HAHAHA!" Xiang Ren was getting more bolder, as if he was losing his mind.

Yi Ling only continued to sip on her tea, as if it wasn't her doing. She drugged Xiang Ren's tea. It was one of her new experiments. Two things happens when one drinks it. First, the soul separates the consciousness of the body. The soul would then feel a gradually increasing pain while being unable to control the body. Second, The body would then be taken over by his inner thoughts. Forcefully making it admit anything without falsehood.

It was tricky, so she had to find someone who was too crude to try it on. Xiang Ren was the perfect subject.

Xiang He couldn't take it anymore and attacked Xiang Ren. Xiang Ren wasn't as fast and wasn't able to dodge. Due to the effects of the drug, he lacked instincts.

Xiang He punched and kicked his uncle to the ground. Xiang Ren was all bruised and was puking blood.

Elder Zhen was silently crying while watching the Crown Prince beat up his uncle. They have waited for so long, finally! They are able to retaliate!.

On the other side, The Emperor's knees went weak and sat down again. His eyes we're so red , tears was falling on his face.

"My dear Jing'er, im so sorry. I didn't know. After all of these years looking for your murderer, It was there in front of me the whole time. I was even doting on him." He murmured as he cried. He looked at his beaten little brother and his son.

He got up and clenched his fist. "GUARDS! Bring this bastard to the Imperial Palace' Jail and await my further commands! No one is allowed to visit this bastard without my permission!"

Two of his shadow guards appeared out of nowhere and grabbed the almost dead Xiang Ren out of the garden. Xiang Ren was still yelling and laughing like a crazy idiot.

"I killed the Empress and crippled her son! HAHAHA! You deserve it all Big brother!!! HAHAHA!"

The people who were standing outside saw the dragged and bloodied man, who was yelling so loudly.

They were all shocked when they all heard his confessions but they were more stunned when they realized who it was. It was none other than Xiang Ren!

"Tsk.. I knew that bastard was always a devil! *ptui*"

"What kind of person is he! And he was trying to ascend the throne!"

"A devil I tell you!"

They all threw rocks and whatnot towards the dragged man.
