Lu Zheng ignored him and pointed at each of the Sand God's eldest prince's women, killing them one by one. Blood splattered onto the Sand God's eldest prince's face, covering him completely.
When Lu Zheng finally pointed his sword at his child, the eldest prince of the Sand God broke down: "I'll talk, I'll talk! Gu Xin ran away on her own. We haven't even caught up with her yet, and you've already attacked."
Lu Zheng turned his head: "Where did she run off to? Which direction? Why did you kidnap her? And that cave in Kunzhou, one path leads to the Sand God Kingdom, and the other leads to the Langge Kingdom? Who is behind you?"
The eldest prince of the Sand God shook his head: "I don't know. We've sent people to search in all directions, but we haven't found them. They're neither alive nor dead."
Seeing that Lu Zheng had no intention of making a move, the eldest prince of the Sand God continued, "It was the people of Langge who brought Gu Xin to the well in the Sand God Kingdom. They sent a message asking us to pick her up and lock her up. Another path through the cave passage leads to Langge, but they have excellent iron-casting technology and have cast iron gates in the underground river. Over the years, they have been sending people to and from the Great Zhou through the secret passage."
The eldest prince of the Sand God became increasingly smug as he spoke: "As long as we send warhorses and cattle and sheep, they will send our people to the Great Zhou. My father went there and brought back quite a few girls from the Great Zhou!"
Lu Zheng clenched his fist. Many doubts from his past life were now resolved. Why did Langge Kingdom get in touch with King Qu? It wasn't just that King Qu had planted spies in Kuncheng, but also because of this road!
Lu Zheng looked at him: "Besides King Qu, who else is secretly colluding with the Kingdom of Lang?"
The eldest prince of the Sand God looked at Lu Zheng, gritted his teeth, and said, "I'm telling you, you have to promise to let me and my sons go."
Lu Zheng sneered: "You think you're qualified to negotiate with me?"
After saying that, he ordered his men to bring over a teenager and held a knife to the child's neck.
The eldest prince of the Sand God said: "You surnamed Zhou, you have been indiscriminately killing innocent children. You will be punished by heaven."
Lu Zheng glanced coldly at the eldest prince of the Sand God: "Those who are not of our kind will surely have different hearts. If you don't cut the weeds at the root, they will grow back when the wind blows."
After saying that, he made a single, decisive cut without his hand trembling.
The eldest prince of the Sand God felt that what he had heard about the benevolence of the Great Zhou people was completely false. He felt that they had all been deceived by the appearance of the Great Zhou, and that the people of the Great Zhou were not human at all, but ruthless demons who killed without blinking an eye.
It seems I absolutely mustn't tell anyone, or I might save my life. Otherwise, if I do, this great demon in front of me will definitely kill me without hesitation.
Lu Zheng, carrying his sword, walked to the side of the Sand God's eldest prince, twirled his sword, and then directly slashed at his limbs several times. The Sand God's eldest prince screamed in pain as his tendons in his hands and feet were severed.
Lu Zheng looked down at him, waited for him to faint, and then woke him up: "A quick death or being tortured to death by me, choose one."
The eldest prince of the Sand God was pale and his mouth trembled as he said, "I, I'll talk. People from the Peng family, and people from the Peng family. I don't know who they are, I just know they are from the Peng family."
Lu Zheng killed the Sand God's eldest prince with a single sword strike.
"General Zhou, what about these children?" His subordinate couldn't help but ask as they walked out the door.
"Send them to the prisoners and treat them the same as the families of those who surrendered," Lu Zheng said, frowning as he glanced at the children.
These children are terrified. Let the higher-ups worry about this.
