A gray-bearded man in the crowd snorted coldly at Zhao Xin, "Your Majesty, since your men wanted to kill us and brought us to this point, why are you asking questions now when you already know the truth?"
Zhao Xin chuckled. "You guys have come to this point now. Do you know why? Didn't I tell you that you guys were born in our Great Qin Empire and have developed to this point. It's a great fortune. But why do you guys have to die like this? Didn't I tell you that no matter how powerful you guys are, it's useless! No matter how many people like you appear, I will kill you every time you show up. I will kill you until there are no more people like you in this world."
He had encountered a similar enemy last time, and at that time he was merciless and just killed them indiscriminately.
But the last time, those people Zhao Xin killed had basically betrayed the Qin Empire.
Therefore, Zhao Xin was very bold and killed all those guys in one breath, completely disregarding the impact they would have.
But this time, although many of those arrested had such tendencies, they had only secretly smuggled some supplies at most, and had not done anything to truly betray the Qin Empire. However, their emperor still intended to kill people.
The old man with the white beard said to Zhao Xin, "Your Majesty, it's easy for you to kill us. But there are millions of members in our family, and you've left so much harm behind. Think about it, when you walk the streets in the future, people will always be looking for revenge. When that happens, I want to see what you, the emperor, can do."
Zhao Xin glanced at the old man with a smile, then said to him, "So you're saying that you want me to not only kill you but also exterminate all nine of your clans in order to guarantee my safety?"
Everyone shuddered when they heard Zhao Xin's words. They had originally intended to use their family members to threaten the emperor, but they had never expected that the emperor would suddenly think of exterminating all nine of their clans.
As expected, this cruel and ruthless emperor is still the same cruel and ruthless emperor.
This guy is simply the Flathead Brother among emperors. He is not afraid of anyone and dares to be an enemy of anyone. Such power is indeed too terrifying and too incredible.
After hearing what Zhao Xin said, everyone at the scene finally realized that if they continued to force the threats, he would be trying to kill their families.
So they knelt down one by one and said, "Your Majesty, please have mercy on us. We did all this on our own. It has nothing to do with our families. Please, Your Majesty, spare my family."
Zhao Xin snorted coldly and said, "You guys finally realize you were wrong now, don't you? I've said before, if the crime doesn't extend to your family, then I won't kill them. But if they want to kill me, they'll have to pay a small price. All of you, do the hard labor for me! Our Great Qin Empire is still under construction. There are many tiring, difficult, and dangerous tasks. Let them do it. After 10 years, if they can survive, then I will let them go."
His decision was actually quite cruel, because no matter what era it was, the Qin Empire naturally had some very hard and dangerous labor.
The Qin Empire generally would not let ordinary people do those jobs, and even prisoners from enemy countries did not have to do such dangerous work.
Only those who have committed capital crimes and are in enemy countries, causing huge losses to the Qin Empire, will be punished there!
But now, the families of these thousands of people were actually arranged to be sent there, which was simply to kill them.
After all, these family members of theirs are all spoiled and cannot possibly provide any strong labor force. If they are asked to do those things, it would basically be the same as committing suicide. It seems that their emperor is indeed angry.
Many people looked at the white-bearded old man angrily, because all this was caused by him. Otherwise, their emperor would never do such a thing!
"Your Majesty, please be merciful. If we do this, I'm afraid no one in our family will survive!"
Some people kept begging for mercy. Although the Qin Empire no longer allowed kneeling, these guys still knelt down.
Zhao Xin chuckled and said, "You've actually knelt down before me. I heard everything you said earlier clearly. Don't think I'm unaware of your secret discussions."
Of course, it was impossible for him to really hear what everyone said, but with his omnipresent Jinyiwei and his special sound transmission skills, Zhao Xin was able to hear what many people said.
Zhao Xin was indeed very surprised. He had not expected that there were so many ignorant people in the Qin Empire who wanted to challenge his position as emperor.
Of course, he is not afraid of being challenged by others, but he feels that it would only be justified if there is a heavyweight figure to challenge him.
But now, there is not a single heavyweight figure, just a few guys with a little money, who want to challenge the Qin Emperor who has an army of millions. He feels that it is too insulting to himself.
That's why he is so angry now!
However, at this moment, suddenly a flying vehicle flew over from the distant sky, and a man got off the vehicle with a scepter in his hand.
This person did not kneel before Zhao Xin, but instead gave an order: "Emperor of the Qin Empire, I am an envoy from the Are Empire. His Majesty the Emperor of the Are Empire already knows what His Majesty the Qin Emperor is doing! That is why he sent me here to tell His Majesty the Qin Emperor that you cannot treat these people this way. Because these people are our friends of the Are Empire!"
Zhao Xin took a look at this so-called messenger and found that this guy was not tall, but looked fierce.
So, he asked coldly, "Because these guys are friends of your Ari Empire, I can't kill them? Your presence here now, doesn't it mean that these guys are colluding with your Ari Empire?"
