Chapter 1256: The Dagger Revealed
Han Yue's face turned ugly after she said this. She knew that Cao Xiaochun came here for more than just this one thing. Sure enough, after she admitted it, the main course was finally served.
But she still couldn't figure out the other party's pulse. Since Cao Xiaochun knew so much, why would he play such a scene today? Could it be that this person was deceiving her?
But thinking about it carefully, it didn't seem like it. After all, the three women of Luoshen had already gone to the warehouse to check the account books. This matter couldn't be concealed!
"Lord Lu, the prisoners who can enter this prison are already extremely evil people. No matter how they are dealt with, they will not be said to have moral deficiencies. So I don't understand why the empress suddenly pays attention to this place?"
Han Yue exhaled heavily and planned to tell Cao Xiaochun directly. Instead of guessing blindly here, it would be better to talk about it.
She has been guarding this Ice Crystal City near the border for several eras, fighting countless battles, and has no rebellious intentions. Han Yue doesn't believe that the empress will deal with her just for a few prisoners.
You know, Sophilia was reselling war materials, and now she has been pardoned.
"What does the Lord of the City mean?"
"Why don't I understand?"
Cao Xiaochun slowly walked to Han Yue and asked.
"Since Lord Lu wants to know, I will tell you."
Han Yue raised his head and looked directly at Cao Xiaochun, as if he had made enough psychological preparations.
"Every year, I take a batch of prisoners from the prison and sell them as slaves. The subsidies I get are all used for the defense of the city and people's livelihood. I have a separate account book here. If you want to see it, I can provide it immediately."
"I, Han Yue, am a subordinate god of one of the three thousand avenues. At the same time, it is also for the sake of fighting that my law was born, so I have no selfish motives.
"Even if this matter is wrong, Lord, ask yourself, what has Ice Crystal City gained in the Order Dynasty over the years?"
"Because it is located in a remote area, as the second line of defense on the border of the central universe, it not only has to supply a large amount of "Galaxy Star Ice" every year, but also has to guard against the invasion of spies. "
"Not only are the resources that should be there often deducted, but there is no basic guarantee for the soldiers. So, if I don't find a way to get resources, how can Ice Crystal City survive?"
"If the Supervisory Guard wants to punish me because of this, I will definitely not accept it. Even if I report it to the Empress, I will still say the same thing."
Han Yue said confidently, as if everything he did was for the entire Ice Crystal City and he had no selfish motives.
But in Cao Xiaochun's eyes, these words were almost nonsense.
If Han Yue was really so upright, how could he tolerate others kidnapping others at will in his city?
You have to know that this kind of thing has no benefit for Han Yue.
"City Lord Han Yue, with your eloquence and reaction ability, you should be transferred to the court to be an imperial censor or a civil servant in other departments, instead of being a military general who no one pays attention to in such a place. ”
"Since Lord Han is not sincere, there is no need to talk anymore. Remember, I gave you a chance. "
Cao Xiaochun sneered, then turned around and walked towards the prison exit.
Looking at Cao Xiaochun's back, Han Yue was shaking with anger. She hated others playing dumb with her the most!
"What do you want, or what do you want to do now!"
"If you don't tell me, how can I help you?"
Han Yue flashed and came directly in front of Cao Xiaochun. The pressure of the semi-saint level spread, directly blocking the surroundings, and countless ice lotuses fell.
"Why do you want to kill people to silence them?"
"You can try and see how long you can keep your life if you kill me here?"
"Didn't you ask me what I wanted just now?"
"It seems that you are still not very smart. I have the evidence, why should I come to see you?"
"Isn't this giving you the opportunity to make conditions?"
"It's a pity that you are still beating around me and asking me what I want. City Lord Han Yue, this loyal general, is acting refreshing? "
Cao Xiaochun smiled slightly. She was not afraid of Han Yue's threat at all. Instead, she guided her step by step and entered her own rhythm.
Looking at Cao Xiaochun's fearless appearance, Han Yue suddenly felt extremely aggrieved. After all, she was also the God of Order, the most noble existence in the world. Now, she was threatened by a silver-level ant. What was even more aggrieved was that she was powerless!
For a moment, she really wanted to tear Cao Xiaochun apart directly, and then walk out of the central universe to set up her own business, but thinking of the current situation in the universe, and the fact that she was just a subordinate god, if she really walked out, neither the God Alliance nor Tuoba Mingyue would let her go.
You know, there are gods with the same attributes as herself in the God Alliance, and they can't wait to devour her.
In general, she has no capital to negotiate with the God Alliance. She is not a top god king like cause and effect or fate.
"Huh..."
Putting away her own pressure, Han Yue looked into Cao Xiaochun's eyes, and after a long time, she spoke.
"Please show me a way, Lord Lu. "
Seeing this, Cao Xiaochun smiled, knowing that the other party had given up. In this case, the next plan could be implemented.
"In fact, you and I have no grudges. It is the duty of the Supervisory Guard to investigate you. To be honest, I don't want to do these jobs that offend people."
"You also know that I am a layman. My talent for cultivation is here. If I want to improve, I probably won't be able to practice much, so I have to make up for it from other places."
"To be honest, among the more than 2,700 city lords in the central universe, who is not greedy? But they are different from you. They understand the distribution of interests, so they can be protected at critical moments."
Cao Xiaochun looked at Han Yue and spoke very casually.
"Although the Queen of Gods had some conflicts with the Empress before, the saying "blood is thicker than water" can never be erased. Our supervisory guards are now the knife that helps the Empress remove obstacles, but this knife has not been sharpened yet, so Need some help.”
With that said, Cao Xiaochun took out a jade box and opened it gently.
"The Eternal Worm, a newly created thing by the Queen of Gods, can help it condense the eternal laws, but the price is to have the Queen of Gods look up to her."
"I don't know, would you like to consider improving your understanding of the law?"
Cao Xiaochun's brows jumped, and the Furnace Gu in his hand was more like a surrender contract to Han Yue.
Now that things have happened, she also understands that the other party is here to investigate the case. He is clearly taking the opportunity to attack, and wants to use this leverage to force her to take sides, or to surrender.
But now, can I still choose?
Not to mention that Tuoba Mingyue didn't believe what he said, even if he was sure, could she really leave in Ye Qingyu's hands?
Looking at the furnace cauldron Gu in Cao Xiaochun's hand, Han Yue felt a trace of sadness in her heart. The majestic ice crystal goddess was forced to come here!
