In the second month after the trial, reports came from the southern border that a large group of people appeared in the north of the southern border.

The Daxia Emperor’s people have arrived…

The visiting team was like a dazzling river made of gold, silver and steel, pouring into the gate of Lingnan City in a mighty manner. There were five hundred of them in total, composed of the Emperor's personal guards, attendants, and maids.

The strong wind flapped at the dozens of golden flags held high above their heads, embroidered with the roaring golden dragon symbolizing the Gu clan's royal family.

There were almost no faces that Qi Rusong recognized in the team, but the man who was walking at the front of the team, accompanied by several majestic and strong men, seemed to be easier to identify in his eyes.

The opponent turned over and jumped off his horse, let out a familiar roar, and then hugged him: "You must be Qi Rusong!" The man looked him up and down carefully, and then laughed loudly, "How are you and your father?

alike."

Portraits and stone carvings of the Emperor of Daxia can be seen everywhere. The appearance of this man is almost the same as that of the Emperor of Daxia, so Qi Rushong is certain that this person must be Guyang, the second prince of the Emperor of Daxia.

According to rumors, the two princes of the Great Xia Emperor were both handsome men with clean faces and clear eyes, making young girls dream of being strong and strong men. But now they are a greasy nobleman with a fat ball.

After confirming the identity of the visitor, Qi Rusong knelt down on one knee: "Your Highness, Lingnan City is at your disposal."

The second prince, Guyang, quickly helped him up, "No, no! The strong are respected. How can I, a person who has not cultivated spiritual energy, accept such a great gift, haha."

At this time, other people dismounted one after another, and the horsemen from the city came to take care of the horses.

Then Guyang looked at Su Yu for a long time as if he was seeing his long-lost sister.

"Is this your wife? She is indeed a beauty."

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness! I heard that the princess is the most beautiful woman in Daxia."

While the two sides were still exchanging greetings, Gu Yang asked, "Rusong, where is your rebellious brother?"

"In the prison, he never revealed the whereabouts of my father. I have to know the truth!"

"Ha, then take me to see it quickly!"

This statement shocked everyone, and Guyang's guard captain objected. He said that everyone had been on their way since early in the morning. At this time, everyone was hungry and tired, so they should take a rest first to see if the prisoner didn't need to be in such a hurry.

Seeing Guyang staring at him coldly, he stopped talking.

The prince's politeness was all fake...that look in his eyes just now was the real him! Qi Rusong and Su Yu could see clearly at a glance.

So Qi Rusong had to let Su Yu and Shi She entertain the other royal members, while he followed Gu Yang to the underground cell.

The spiral staircase leading to the Tianlao was very narrow, so Qi Rusong walked in front with a light on.

"Where is your sister-in-law?" Guyang asked him, "You won't kill her, right?"

"She did not commit the death penalty. I put her under house arrest in her room."

"It doesn't matter if I kill them," Gu Yang complained as he went downstairs, "They are all rebellious officials and traitors!"

Qi Rusong was speechless and had to change the subject, "Your Highness, I believe you will have a pleasant trip, right?"

Guyang smiled: "There are woods and wilderness everywhere along the way. I have never seen such a vast wilderness in my life. Where have all the people in the southern border gone?"

"Mostly because they are too shy to come out. It's rare to see the prince in the Southern Territory!" Qi Rusong joked. He felt a chill sweeping up from the dungeon, like the cold breath of the deep underground. "The people in the Southern Territory are the least among the five realms.

Plus the last demonic disaster!"

"And your brother is making such a fuss!" Gu Yang smiled again.

"I hope it didn't bring any trouble to Daxia."

"Troubled? The common people will talk about your brother's actions for at most half a month." Guyang said, "And you, [Judgment]! In just a few months, you have broken through from [Second-level Sword User] to [Sixth-level Sword User]"

Your Majesty, there has never been such a powerful person in our Great Xia Kingdom for thousands of years."

When they reached the bottom of the stairs and entered the deep darkness of the dungeon, Guyang was already panting, having difficulty breathing, and his ears were red under the light.

"Your Highness, please come in," Qi Rushong said respectfully, and then moved the lantern in a semicircle.

"This place is really not for humans." Guyang held his mouth and nose, disgust written all over his face.

The stench is astounding, rats are scurrying around, and you can't see your fingers. Even if you say this is hell, no one would object.

The cell doors were opened layer by layer, and when the two of them walked to the cell where Qi Rubai was.

The former Crown Prince of the Southern Realm was grabbing a fat rat, letting it twist and scream, and he bit it down in one bite. His hunger drove him to devour it, and after the third bite, the rat no longer struggled. He simply felt a little uncomfortable.

I am satisfied.

Qi Rubai froze in fright when he heard the voice of the visitor, not daring to take another bite. He listened with fear to the jingling of keys and footsteps approaching.

The last meal was probably two days ago, or three days ago. It's so dark underground that you can't tell. His limbs were as thin as reed sticks; his belly was bloated and his intestines were empty.

He huddled in the corner of the cell, praying that he was not here. The sound became louder and louder. There was more than one cell, and he was not the only prisoner. Sometimes he could hear the screams of others through the thick stone walls.

But the footsteps and the jingling of keys stopped at his door, and the mouse fell from his fingers. He kicked the straw on the ground with his heels, trying to find a crack in the wall to squeeze in.

The sound of unlocking was the most terrifying. The firelight hit his face and he screamed.

His foundation was destroyed, and now he is a useless person. Let alone practicing martial arts, it is difficult to even walk. "Are they here to kill me? My brother is finally going to get rid of me!" He kept shaking...

"Oh my god! What do you think he is doing?" Guyang almost vomited. "He actually eats mice alive!"

"They won't give you food?" Qi Rusong held the torch in front of him so he could see more clearly.

"Please, don't hit me!" the former Nanjing Crown Prince begged. Those rats came to bite him while he was sleeping, gnawing at his fingers, toes, and even his face. Eat or be eaten, there was no choice. "I'll take it.

Eat it. They will eat me too. Please..."

"If I had known this, why did I do it in the first place!" Gu Yang shook his head, "Poor, pathetic..."

"If I lose, I'm afraid my end will be worse than this!" Qi Rushong sneered. "How about it? Are you willing to tell me the whereabouts of my father?"

Father! A wailing cry rushed into his throat. "Father..." He whispered, his voice was as smooth as a centenarian.

"I don't have much patience. If you think of something, just tell me and leave without me."

"Don't leave!" He couldn't help but burst into tears. "I really don't know where my father is. That day, my subordinates came to report that my father was not in the house. I sent people to look for him everywhere, but my father seemed to have disappeared from the world.

.”

"That's nonsense!" Qi Rusong pretended to be angry, and he began to believe his brother's words in his heart.

But even if this is true, it cannot be accepted. There are too many implications in this matter, and Qi Rubai must be held responsible for his father's murder.

"Your Majesty," Gu Yang said meaningfully, "you'd better do it honestly. Why are you so stubborn and suffering here?"

"I didn't... didn't..." "You did... you killed your father!" Gu Yang's words were more like a hint or a reminder, "Where is the body? Where did you throw the body?"

"Remains? I...can't remember clearly..." Qi Rubai opened and closed his mouth. "I ordered people to throw my father's body...into the Ghost Forest..."

"Look, isn't that what you asked?"
