Cheng Lin's face changed. He said, "Xian'er, although I deserve to die, our Vajra Sect has already declined. I am the only one of my generation still alive. I think you are very suitable to be the Sect Leader. Otherwise, how about I pass the position to you and then die after stabilizing the situation? I don't want to see the Vajra Sect in turmoil again."
This guy first gave Zeng Xian'er some benefits, saying that he wanted to pass the position of the sect leader to her.
At the critical moment, he was afraid of death.
This is an excuse to survive.
In his opinion, this move of his was quite clever, and even Tang Xiaobao wouldn't be able to say anything.
Zeng Xian'er hesitated.
Indeed, the Vajra Sect suffered heavy losses. If Cheng Lin also died, there would only be more than 20 new generation disciples left, which is indeed a huge loss.
But not killing?
How can we be worthy of our ancestors?
At this moment, several fellow brothers and sisters who came back with Zeng Xianer began to persuade her again.
Zeng Xian'er became even more hesitant.
To kill or not to kill!
He looked at Tang Xiaobao, feeling a little embarrassed.
"It seems that you are still too indecisive. How can you be the leader of the sect like this?"
Tang Xiaobao continued, "Well, we're from the same sect after all. I understand your difficulties. Let me handle this matter."
After saying that, he walked over.
Zeng Xian'er stepped aside.
Although she was making a big fuss, she really couldn't bring herself to do anything.
Besides, no one dared to say anything about how Tang Xiaobao would deal with today's matter, including Zeng Xian'er. If he wanted to come out and deal with it, there would be no problem.
Walking up to Cheng Lin, Tang Xiaobao said with a smile, "You are very smart."
"Mr. Tang, I, I am guilty."
Cheng Lin is still acting.
"I'm just worried about Xian'er."
Tang Xiaobao laughed: "You still want to continue acting now? Are you sure you want to act?"
"I--"
Cheng Lin was shocked and didn't know what to say.
After all this time, doesn't Tang Xiaobao believe what he said?
He was almost moved by himself, what should he do?
"Your performance just now could really win you an Oscar for Best Actor, but it's useless. I don't believe it at all. Everyone has to die, some lighter than a feather, some heavier than Mount Tai. Okay, I'm getting off topic. I think your decision to surrender was nothing to be commended. You
You've slandered yourself as so great, but it's made me look down on you. Your sinister and treacherous face is clearly revealed. I really admire you. I guess you're almost believing your own words. That's right, to make others believe, you must first believe yourself. Look at your performance just now, you were moved by tears and moved your heart. But I just don't believe it. If you had admitted your mistake from the beginning and then knelt down to beg for mercy, maybe I really could have let you go. After all, in my eyes, your life is worthless. In my eyes, you are like an ant. I won't even look at you. But you did it wrong."
Tang Xiaobao's words made Cheng Lin regretful, and his expression finally changed.
"Do you know why I don't believe your performance?"
Cheng Lin didn't say anything, but he was really curious.
He thought he acted well enough.
Tang Xiaobao asked himself and answered, "Because, just now, when I was killing the Emperor, what were you doing? You were so scared that you pissed yourself. How could a gentleman with nothing to hide and a clear conscience be so frightened? So, this is destined to become your vulnerability. Perhaps before today, you thought the Emperor was invincible and unbeatable, and that following him was the right choice, even if it meant aiding and abetting the evil. But in fact, even the Emperor is an ant in my eyes. Killing him is just a matter of a flick of my hand.
"I, I, I was wrong, Mr. Tang, please give me a way to live. Just treat me as a fart and let me go."
Finally, Cheng Lin began to beg for mercy, kneeling down to beg for mercy.
He never dared to act again.
But it was obviously too late.
Tang Xiaobao laughed. "Haha, if I told you that what I said just now was just a lie, what would you think? Your attitude now proves that what you said just now was all nonsense, doesn't it? Stupid!"
Suddenly, Cheng Lin almost vomited blood.
Cheated him?
He was really about to be pissed off.
His face was pale, without a trace of blood, his body was trembling, and he just kept kowtowing and begging for mercy.
Everyone finally reacted.
So, many people started to curse.
"It's so despicable."
“How hypocritical!”
“It’s not a pity to die!”
"It's so infuriating. I almost believed his nonsense just now."
"This guy is so insidious."
"You're such a good actor, I almost took it seriously."
"Junior Sister Xian'er, I'm sorry.
I was deceived by a traitor. Such a person deserves to be killed!"
"That's right, he deserves to be killed!"
Everyone was talking at once.
Tang Xiaobao coughed.
All the sounds disappeared, and everyone looked at him carefully, afraid that he would be angry.
In everyone's mind, the Emperor is a devil-like existence.
And now, in their hearts, Tang Xiaobao is more terrifying than the devil.
"You are definitely going to die. No matter how much you beg for mercy, it's meaningless. Do you want to die in such a cowardly way? Stand up and answer a few questions. I can leave your body intact and give you a quick death. Otherwise, I will torture you to death. In fact, the most terrifying thing in the world is not death, but being alive but suffering more than death. When the time comes, you will find that death is the true luxury and relief."
Tang Xiaobao said lightly.
Cheng Lin hesitated, but in the end, he chose to stand up.
He knew that he was going to die today.
"The first question is, who helped to arrest the child? Point out these people."
When Cheng Lin heard this, he was not very opposed to it. He turned around and pointed at more than a dozen people in a row. Some of these people were from the Vajra Sect, and some were from other sects.
He named someone and someone stood up.
But after everyone came out, the first thing they did was to kneel down.
Knowing they were guilty, they could only beg for mercy.
No one dared to deny it.
In a short while, more than twenty people were identified.
"Secondly, where are the children you captured now?"
Tang Xiaobao asked again.
Suddenly, a trace of despair appeared on Cheng Lin's face, and those people on the ground began to tremble.
It’s coming, it’s coming, it’s finally coming.
This is the question they least want to answer.
"explain!"
Tang Xiaobao snorted coldly.
He hasn't forgotten these children.
Those are ninety-nine lives. If they died, he would feel uneasy.
Although he is a god now, he is still a human being after all, and he cannot lose his basic bottom line of kindness.
If he can save her, he will definitely do so.
Ninety-nine children mean more than ninety-nine families will be in despair and pain, and this pain will accompany those families for the rest of their lives.
Indelible.
