Ren Tianchi then looked at the military region commander with surprise as he put away the screen recording. Huh? What's going on? Aren't they afraid that he'll use this as leverage to report to the military region and get them all dismissed?
"I will try my best to suppress the matter of the Mechanical Planet, and at least I will not let the news spread."
"Oh? So kind of you? Is it like a weasel offering New Year's greetings to a chicken?"
"Of course, the premise is that I want you to keep Cen Zhuoqun's affairs a secret."
Seeing the serious expression on the face of the military commander in Aurora City, Ren Tianchi frowned. "Are you serious?"
"Can I ask for your reasons? You don't want to execute him? Don't you know what will happen to him if the military region's Truth Department takes him away?"
"No... execution is definitely necessary, but I want you to keep Cen Youzhi's matter a secret."
"Um?"
It is common knowledge that the military region and the Northern Alliance are at odds, so no one would have thought that they would protect each other. If Ren Tianchi, a high-ranking member of the Northern Alliance, testifies, then the matter of Cen Youzhi, the city lord of Aurora City, can also be guaranteed.
"Cen Zhuoqun, why did you betray the human race?"
"Hahahaha..."
The insane Cen Zhuoqun was unable to speak, which is why there was a trial bench.
The commander immediately activated the trial order, and Cen Zhuoqun was forcibly bound, with a pardon talisman appearing on his forehead!
"Hurry, hurry, as the law commands! Condense!"
With the True Word Talisman affixed and the Judgment Formation applied, Cen Zhuoqun's eyes were lifeless, and his whole body slumped down, looking just like a puppet.
"I'll repeat myself, Cen Zhuoqun, why did you betray humanity?"
"I did not... betray humanity."
"What's the meaning?"
"From beginning to end... I've been yearning for revenge, yearning for retribution, wanting to prove Cen Youzhi's double standards of justice..."
Um?
Ren Tianchi's expression hardened. It seemed that the important part was about to begin.
"Why seek revenge? What did Cen Youzhi do wrong?"
"My mother...was killed by his own hands..."
Huh? Didn't the Aurora City Lord's wife die of illness? How could he have killed her with his own hands?!
Ren Tianchi, who was enjoying a big piece of gossip, turned his head in surprise to look at the commander next to him, only to find that he was very calm and not surprised at all.
What the hell? He already knew?
"Was your mother...human?"
"Is there a difference between the lower classes of the demon race and the human race? When war comes, neither of them has a choice."
burst!
So your mother really is a demon? When did the Aurora City Lord find a demon girlfriend? And isn't this kind of behavior strictly prohibited by the military?
"Why do you say your father is hypocritical?"
"He promised my mother that one day, the war between humans and demons would be resolved, and then everyone could live together. Later, my mother and I were settled by him in a village on the border."
When I was eight years old, he led a group of men into the village, spouting hypocritical righteousness as he hacked at my mother.
If resolving the war between humans and demons means the complete death of one side, then I hate Cen Youzhi, and I hate everything that Cen Youzhi cares about!
Since he could choose to harm my mother in the name of justice, then I can also choose to take revenge on him in the name of justice!
Uh, this...
Ren Tianchi shook his head slightly. Demons had infiltrated the village, but it was obvious that although these settled demons were dangerous, they were not aggressive and could be controlled. Even if the military region had discovered this situation more than ten years ago, it probably wouldn't have done anything, right?
So the Lord of Aurora City must have had some reason for taking action back then.
If it were a small village on the border, this would explain why Cen Zhuoqun's behavior was more human than that of a demon. So, although everyone in Aurora City was puzzled by Cen Zhuoqun's behavior, they never thought he was a half-demon, half-human being.
"As expected... sigh, Cen Youzhi, Cen Youzhi, look at you, you can't solve this messy family matter without someone else's intervention."
Why are you wasting your energy like that?
The commander then produced a miniature dimensional storage ring capable of storing living beings.
He also removed the power of the truth-revealing talisman.
Cen Zhuoqun, whose consciousness was in a daze, briefly stopped his maniacal laughter, clearly still not having reacted.
But when I looked up, I was shocked to see a familiar figure!
That's his mother! Mo Qing!!!
"Mom...Mom?"
But the person in front of him did not respond at all; he was simply frozen in the century-old ice crystals with his eyes closed.
"Cen Youzhi is using the pretense of treating a chronic illness to find a doctor who can cure your mother."
Your mother is not dead; she is in a state of suspended animation.
I don't know much about this matter, but I do know some inside information. Would you like to hear it?
