C375 Seven Heavenly Kings
0On the other hand, after Su Chen's substitute puppet was interrogated, it had returned in a miserable state. It looked extremely miserable. Looking at King Tian and the others, although they hadn't been tortured and interrogated, however, all of them were in low spirits, and their eyes were lifeless. Obviously, they had also been baptized by a strong will.
"Brat, don't think that you can get away with this just because you stole the national treasury. This will cause the Imperial Court to lose their patience and kill all of us. I advise you to accumulate some merits and tell the truth earlier. Furthermore... Hand over the stolen treasury and everyone might be able to escape death... " Marquis Dong Yun shouted at Su Chen in exasperation.
"It's too late, it's too late!" Su Chen's substitute puppet said with a face full of vicissitudes of life.
"What's too late?"
"It's fine that you were caught stealing from No.6 National Treasury, but you don't want to drag us down with you, do you? We are all innocent. Your mind is so vicious. Aren't you afraid of being thrown into the eighteen layers of hell? " The Azure Emperor stared at Su Chen with his eyes wide open, his face full of unwillingness.
"I really didn't steal the national treasury, I don't have the means to do so either. I was also wrongly accused." Su Chen's substitute sighed weakly and slowly fell to the ground. Seeing his performance despite being seriously injured, even King Tian and the others' faith began to waver.
Although all signs indicated that Su Chen was the thief who stole the national treasury, when they thought of his strength and his action of surrendering in the West Spirit prefecture, they could not help but shake their heads.
"Could it be that the theft of the national treasury really has nothing to do with him?" The Marquis of East Cloud frowned.
"I don't know. Since the Imperial Court has already intervened, this matter should be investigated thoroughly. In any case, we aren't involved in this matter, so there's nothing for us to worry about. " King Tian said faintly.
"Master King Tian is right. We just have to wait patiently. One day, we will leave this place clean and clean." The Azure Emperor nodded and said.
As the days passed, Su Chen's substitute puppet suffered a lot of torture. It was already on the verge of death, and even King Tian and the others felt increasingly dispirited because they couldn't see the day of their appearance. Su Chen, on the other hand, was like a dormant assassin, patiently waiting for the opportunity to escape.
On this day, while Su Chen was waiting in boredom, a group of patrols followed the dark prison and walked over. When one of them walked past the door of King Tian's prison, his figure paused slightly, and transmitted a thought to them in an extremely secretive manner. After receiving this thought, King Tian and the others could not help but have wild joy on their faces. Secretly, they nodded at the guard. The guard blinked his eyes and left with a trace of satisfaction.
"Hehe, Fifth Heavenly King and the Seven Heavenly Kings have arrived at the treasury camp. They are here to visit us. With these two big shots here, it seems like the time for us to break out of the cage is almost up. " King Tian called out to the others with an excited expression.
"That's right. These two Heavenly Kings are very powerful and are highly valued by the current Emperor. With them speaking up for us, we naturally won't be locked up here anymore. Besides, we didn't steal the national treasury, so there's no reason for us to be locked up." The East Cloud Marquis curled his lips and shouted.
"That's right, we've been locked up for such a long time, and we've suffered such injustice. This is truly a disgrace to us. After we break free, we must report to the Emperor and urge the treasury guards to investigate this case. Find the real thief and return our innocence." Wen Qing Hou nodded and said.
"Commander, Fifth Heavenly King and the Seven Heavenly Kings have come to pick us up. We are about to leave this place. However, you are just a mere commander, and no one cares about you. If there is no one to pity, you can suffer here alone. It would be best to stay in this dark cage forever. " King Tian cursed Su Chen fiercely.
"That's right. If it wasn't for this kid, how could we have been caught here? How could we be imprisoned with the body of a king? This is unforgivable." The Azure Emperor also coldly shouted.
Just as they were excitedly clamoring, a shrill cry rang out from outside the door. After that, a heavy footstep sound rang out. General Shenwei's face was gloomy. He was still holding a bleeding head in his hand. When he arrived next to King Tian and the others, he threw the head away. He let out a cold laugh.
"This is the National Treasury Guard Department, a Level 1 restricted zone of the Imperial Court. Don't try to take advantage of it here. If you leak information, it will lead to serious consequences." The head that General Shenwei tossed out was the one who had transmitted the message to King Tian and the others. His face was full of fear, and the bloody hole on his forehead was even more terrifying.
"Don't be so proud of yourself. Fifth Heavenly King and the Seven Heavenly Kings are coming to pick us up soon. You will have a good time when the time comes." King Tian rolled his eyes at General Shenwei and shouted angrily.
"That's right. The two of them have indeed brought the Emperor's decree. They want to personally supervise this matter. However, it's not easy for them to release you for no reason. " General Shenwei sneered and turned around to leave. His tall back... His confident words made everyone fall silent.
"Greetings, the Seven Heavenly Kings!"
As soon as General Shenwei walked out of the cage, he made a respectful voice. The other party only snorted lightly before turning around and entering the cage. It could be seen how high his status was.
When he entered the line of sight of the crowd, he revealed a noble and elegant member of the royal family. His figure was slender, like a spiraling breeze, displaying the aura of a king as he moved.
"Greetings to the Seven Heavenly Kings. Your subordinate has suffered injustice. Please save me, sir!" When King Tian and the others saw this person, they suddenly knelt down and called for help from this king.
"You bunch of useless things. You can't even take care of a mere commander. You have really disappointed me." The Seven Heavenly Kings rolled their eyes at them and shouted angrily.
"Sir, please calm down. We originally planned well, but we don't know which part of the plan went wrong. Until now, we still haven't figured it out." The Eastern Cloud Marquis spoke again.
"Shut up. Don't you think it's embarrassing enough?" The Seven Heavenly Kings shouted loudly. The two princes standing behind him remained silent, their expressions calm.
The eyes of the Seven Heavenly Kings slowly swept across King Tian and the others, and finally fell into another cage. They saw that Su Chen's substitute was on the verge of death. His body was weak, and he had already stepped into the gates of hell.
"Kid, I heard that you, a waste who just entered the Heavenly Soul Stage, had actually stolen the entire No.6 National Treasury without anyone noticing. Such a method is truly beyond the reach of ordinary people."
