    Xie Ren droned, “Chi Rong you shut up!”

    Lang Qianqiu turned his head violently, saying, “Why did you tell him to shut up? So what he said is the truth? You and An Le both made a move in the Gilded Palace, one killing all my relatives, the other patching up my father, you’re all lying to me?!”

    Xie Ren said: ”Don’t listen to ……” Qi Rong snatched: ”Of course they are all lying to you! You’re so stupid, who do you think you’re fooling? If it wasn’t for this, when you were twelve years old, the Immortal Music Man would have taken your life, and still allowed you to live this long and still ascend?”

    Lang Qianqiu said, “Twelve years old?” One of the major events that happened when he was twelve years old was that he was robbed by thieves and saved by Xie Ren. Lang Qianqiu said, “The thieves who broke into the palace that year were sent by the Xianle people?”

    Chi Rong said, “Nonsense! What ordinary assassin do you think could have snatched their crown prince in front of hundreds of royal warriors, and it wasn’t because I did An Le a favor?”

    Lang Qianqiu nodded his head and said, “Help? Okay, I see. That’s why friends are fake. You Xianle people don’t care about our goodwill, and you Anle King have bad intentions, and you’re here to take our lives.”

    He turned to Xie Ren again and said, “So, what you said is also false.”

    Chi Yung feigned novelty, saying, “Come, come, come, let me hear what my saintly cousin has told you?”

    Lang Qianqiu didn’t pay any attention to him, and only said to Xie Ren: “You said that Yongan and Xianle were originally one country, and that any faults of the royal family had nothing to do with the people. The people on both sides were originally one family, and in our generation’s hands, we can make a difference. As long as the people are good, the royal family name does not matter, the two sides can resolve the enmity, can be reintegrated, are also false. It’s all nonsense, bullshit, and lies!”

    The last thing Xie Ren wanted to hear was such words, and immediately said, “No! It’s not a fake. Think about it, in your hands, didn’t it really make a difference?”

    Lang Qianqiu collected his words, his chest heaving and stagnating. Xie Ren said, ”Didn’t you do well? Didn’t all the Xianle remnants later integrate well with the Yongan people? The latter-day strife is also becoming less and less, so how could it be false?”

    After a long time without words, Lang Qianqiu shed tears and said, “But …… but what about my father and mother? The fusion of Eternal Peace and Immortal Music was originally their greatest wish, which is why the last person of your clan was appointed as the King of Peace and Music. Their wish was accomplished, but what happened to them?”

    Qi Rong spat: “Your crying and wailing ghost character is really the same as my saintly cousin back in the day! You are looking for us to ask for your mother and father, I haven’t even looked for your ancestors to ask for your mother and father. What wish is the fusion of the two sides so give Feng Anle, say nice, Anle Anle, An in the front in the back, do you think I do not see this is your Yongan dog allegory want to step on the head of the immortal music people for the rest of their lives mean?”

    Xie Ren said angrily, “Chi Rong, you’re less of a criminal!”

    Lang Qianqiu, however, while shedding tears, stared dead at Qi Rong and said, “You were behind the killing of my kin? You also had a hand in the Gilt Banquet?”

    Chi Rong said cheekily, “Yes, I have a share, An Le has a share, your master has a share, and all three of us Xian Le people have a share. Hahahahahahahahaha ……”

    Who knows, halfway through his laugh, Lang Qianqiu’s heavy sword suddenly chopped downwards. Chi Rong let out a wail, and his entire body was chopped in two!

    It was a very bloody scene, both halves of Chi Rong’s body were rolling on the ground, while his upper body said, “No pain, no pain, no pain at all, compared to Cousin Crown Prince’s slap, you’re nowhere near as good! Hahahahahahahaha!”

    Without a word, Lang Qianqiu grabbed him by the head and lifted him up. Chi Rong was still uttering sneers, but Xie Ren could see that Lang Qianqiu’s demeanor was a bit off, saying, “Chi Rong if you still want to live, quickly say less!”

    He had always treated people gently and courteously, however, Qi Rong was a person who could not be treated with common sense at all, and he understood this, so whenever he faced him, Xie Ren did not want to be polite at all, and could not help but be rude. Lang Qianqiu dragged Chi Rong’s upper body to the cauldron of gurgling and boiling water and said, “Did you always use this cauldron to eat people?”

    Chi Rong was dragged all the way across the floor, making a thick bloody trail, and said, “Yes. What do you want?”

    As soon as he finished his reply, Lang Qianqiu let go of his hand.

    “啊啊啊啊哈哈哈哈——”

    I don’t know whether Qi Rong is screaming or laughing, was thrown into the cauldron, immediately scalded flesh. Xie Ren did not expect such a scene to occur, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he said, “Qianqiu!”

    Lang Qianqiu snapped, “What’s wrong? Green Ghost Chi Rong, how many living people have he eaten, can’t I teach him to taste being boiled as well? He is the enemy of my extinguished clan, can’t I make him suffer as well?!”

    Of course. Therefore, Xie Ren couldn’t say anything, he didn’t didn’t have any position to say. However, whether it was as a prince of a country in the mortal world or an Eastern Martial God in the Heavenly Court, Lang Qianqiu had never done such a thing. He had always killed when he wanted to, not bothering to use such cruelty, which was far too different from the Lang Qianqiu that Xie Ren knew.

    Chi Rong was thrown into the boiling water, after a few moments, and then fished up, has not human form, was boiled into a pile of skin and flesh around the body as if melting the general thing, some places even revealed the white bones, very horrifying. But he seemed to be very happy, still jiejie laughing, said: ”Cousin, congratulations! Look at your good disciple, his wings have hardened, he can use torture, he can torture people!”

    Lang Qianqiu let go again, and Chi Rong was once again thrown into the boiling water. This time after being thrown down, as if even his bones were boiled down by the soup, Chi Rong never floated up again, only a few pieces of his green clothes remained, floating on the water surface. Xie Ren didn’t see him for a long time and couldn’t help but say, “Qi Rong!”

    This cousin of his, once upon a time, opened his mouth and closed his mouth to the Prince’s cousin, pushing him in everything, worshipping and pursuing him beyond measure. However, after the Xianle Kingdom was broken, he turned into a madman. Taking the lead in burning his temple, smashing his hall, building kneeling stone statues and the crown prince’s threshold all over the place, in order to make him suffer, he can do anything at any cost. For this kind of behavior, Xie Ren has always been able to tolerate, if it involves others, they will try to block, to the end of the endurance, they can only hope that the two do not see each other good. Later, the two did not see each other for many years, he thought that Qi Rong has long passed away. Who knows after such a long time, suddenly in this world again met the deceased, see that face with his three similarities, truly can not say in the heart in the end there is not a trace of nostalgia. After all, now remains in the world of immortal music royal family, only two of them left. But not long after meeting, and suddenly saw him die in front of him, and still by even the cane are unwilling to use Lang Qianqiu killed by such cruel means, within a short period of time ups and downs too much, a moment do not know exactly how to feel, heart confused. Lang Qianqiu stood beside the cauldron, bowed his head and said nothing. At this time, Hua Cheng, however, said, “Not dead.”

    Lang Qianqiu looked up at him. Hua Cheng said, ”You don’t think you’ve gotten your revenge this way, do you? At most, you’ve only killed one of his sub|bodies. If you really want to kill him completely, you’ll have to find Qi Rong’s ashes.”

    Lang Qianqiu coldly said, ”Thanks for reminding me, I will definitely catch him with my own hands and use his ashes to honor my father and mother. After that, I’ll look for you to make an end of it. State Master, don’t you dare think of running away again!”

    After he finished speaking, he swung his sword down and chopped the cauldron, then drew away. Rolling water gushed out, and the broken bone remnants in the cauldron rushed to the ground. Xie Ren wanted to chase after him, yet in his heart, he realized that it was already useless.

    He braked his steps and stood still, speechless. Hua Cheng walked up and said, “He just learned the truth, so it’s better to let him calm himself down.”

    Xie Ren was stunned and said, “Why do you have to let him know? Does it matter what the truth is like?”

    Flower City said, “It’s important. He has to understand what you did and what you didn’t, and why you did it.”

    Xie Ren turned around violently and said in a cold voice, “What’s the use of knowing so clearly? Is it possible that if I kill a few less people, I’ll have any more bitterness?”

    Hua Cheng was silent. In Xie Ren’s chest, a burst of anger suddenly surged upwards, and he didn’t know to whom it was directed. He said offhandedly, ”What kind of bullshit bitterness do I have? His father is bent on fusing the two clans, did I kill him? King Anle is the last bloodline of my family, did I kill him? I deserve what I’ve suffered. Isn’t it good to put it all on my head? What am I afraid of? I can’t die even if they all come at me! Originally I was the only one who did something good, I was the one who was the scourge, now it’s the King of Anle who is also counted, Qi Rong is also counted, all the Xianle people are counted. Isn’t it better to hate one person than a group of people? Does it have to make him realize that all the things I taught him in the past were really all fake empty worthless ghostly nonsense?!”

    Hua Cheng just looked at him quietly and did not argue. The two of them stared at each other for a moment, Xie Ren suddenly covered her face all of a sudden and said, ”I’m sorry. Sanlang is sorry. I’m afraid I’ve gone crazy. I’m sorry.”

    Flower City said, “It’s okay. My bad.”

    Xie Ren said, “No, you’re not wrong. It’s my problem.”

    He sat down on the floor, held his head, and said, “A mess. A mess.”

    In a flash, Flower City also took a seat beside him and said, “You’re right.”

    Xie Ren held his head in silence, and Hua Cheng said: ”Kill King Yong’an to protect the remaining people of Xianle. Killing the King of Anle will protect the two clans from further strife. In the end, he died at the hands of Lang Qianqiu, and the murderer was put to death. Three lives, in exchange for a few generations of peace, the most cost-effective, is I also do so. Listen to me.”

    In a tone that was sure and unquestionable, he said, “You’re right. No one will do better than you.”

    After a long silence, Xie Ren said, “I just don’t think I should.”

    He slowly lifted his face and said, “I just think that a person gives good intentions but doesn’t get good results. I don’t think that should be the case.

    “Even if it’s fake, I want Chiaki to remember that if he’s good to Xianle, Xianle will be good to him. Do the right thing and move forward. Instead of what he’s doing now, thinking that what I told him, what he used to believe, all of it is fake, lies, cheating. All fucking bullshit! I just ……”

    He raised his right hand, looked at it, and said, “…… What he’s had enough of himself, he doesn’t want anyone else to have to suffer it again.”

    Hua Cheng listened quietly. Xie Ren, self-conscious that she had spoken another foul language just now, said, ”I’m sorry. But you see how funny things are in this world. Yongan’s previous generations, perverse behavior did not have how to die, to Lang Qianqiu’s parents here, want to do something good, do something big, but this is the end.”

    The Lord of Yongan Kingdom honored him as the State Master, and had been respecting him for five years. Even at the last moment of his life, he left with the color of trust in him that had not yet faded. Xie Ren gazed straight ahead and said softly, “I really can’t forget …… the expression on his face when I stabbed down with my sword.”

    Hua Cheng said in a faint voice, “Forget it. That was Chi Rong and King An Le’s fault.”

    Xie Ren shook his head, buried his head between his knees, and said in a weary voice, “…… Originally everything was fine.”

    Lang Qianqiu’s father ascended to the throne, changing his predecessor’s style of suppressing the Xianle remnants. The Xianle people and Yongan people had managed to coexist peacefully for several decades, and seeing that there was a turnaround, a precursor to integration, and a hope to stay away from strife, the King of Anle picked this time to bloodily wash the Gilded Banquet.

    On the way to abscond, he found King An Le that night, originally wanted to warn him not to start any more trouble in the future, but who knows, this only descendant of his family pulled him down with great excitement after learning his true identity, asking him to join in the great cause of vengeance and restoration of the country. His eyes were fervent, his voice was impassioned, making people’s bones creepy, vowing to wash the Gilded Banquet first, then destroy Lang Qianqiu, stirring up Yong’an to turn it upside down, even if this breaks the two batches of people who have already begun to release their goodwill to each other, even if this sacrifices all of the Xianle’s remnants, as long as they can pull Yong’an’s royal family and the people of Yong’an down to hell with them, they would not hesitate to do so.

    However, killing is killing. Even if there were more grandiose reasons, more “compelling reasons”, the fact is that he personally killed a bright ruler who sincerely wanted to accommodate dissenters, as well as the last bloodline of his family left in the world.

    So, he deserves it.
