Chapter 1619: Despicable!....

Xiao Jingrui suddenly laughed, and then he said loudly,” This prince is telling you that this prince has never known what conscience is since he was born. So, Jiang Zhennan, it is a joke for you to talk about conscience with this prince!”
When he said this, a trace of sadness and obscurity flashed in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared! ” Whether he is three years old or not,” Xiao Jingrui pointed to the child and said,” has nothing to do with this prince. This prince just gave himself the best and most favourable choice! So,”
He changed the topic and looked at Jiang Zhennan, Lin Yuelan, and the others. He shouted sternly,” Their lives will depend on your choice. Also, I’m telling you, you don’t have much time. When the time is up if you haven’t made a decision, then…
He raised his hand and made a gesture. The three of them looked over and saw that among the hundreds of villagers who were being restrained, ten were being escorted out. Among these ten people, there were young adults, women, old people, and children. This child was a three-year-old child just now!
“These ten hostages will be beheaded in an instant! “Xiao Jingrui continued,” Oh, if you don’t make a decision within the stipulated time, then ten people will die because of you every half a cup of tea time.”
As soon as Xiao Jingrui’s voice fell, the faces of Lin Yuelan and the other two changed.
Xiao Jingrui was really ruthless and sinister!
Liu Yichen cursed,” Xiao Jingrui, you’re really despicable and shameless!”
Xiao Jingrui picked his ears, shrugged his shoulders, and said indifferently,” Young Master Liu, this prince seems to have heard this several times. This prince is tired of hearing it. However, this prince is telling you that no matter how many times you curse, it will be useless!” “You…” Liu Yichen didn’t know what to say.
As for the family members who were pushed out, they suddenly rushed out of the encirclement of Xiao Jingrui’s subordinates and then ran directly to Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan. They knelt down and kept kowtowing, saying,” General, Princess Guguo, please save us, please save us!”
From their conversation, they knew that it was impossible to ask the Great Demon King to let them go. Therefore, they placed all their hopes on the Great General and the Princess of Guguo.
As for the Great General and Princess Gu, they would definitely not ignore them.
“Please save us!”
The cries and cries made the entire scene very noisy and uneasy.
Liu Yichen looked at them and frowned slightly. He looked at Lin Yuelan with even more concern.
Lin Yuelan’s expression was still calm. She looked at Xiao Jingrui and said,” Second Prince, are you overestimating this princess? I know nothing about this thing. How do you want me to teach you how to use it?”
Xiao Jingrui spread his hands and said,” This has nothing to do with this prince. I just want to hear your exact answer in half a cup of tea’s time! Otherwise, these people,” he pointed at the commoners and said coldly,” will be beheaded! ”
Liu Yichen cursed again,” Xiao Jingrui, you treacherous villain!”
He could use these innocent people as stakes, but not Jiang Zhennan and Lin Yuelan!
Once Jiang Zhennan and Lin Yuelan decided to abandon the lives of the people, no matter how great the reason was, it would be impossible to shut up the mouths of the people. That would be the crime of looking down on the lives of the people.
Even if they killed all the villagers in the surrounding ten villages for the sake of the big picture, the truth would be revealed to the world sooner or later. At that time, Jiang Zhennan and Lin Yuelan’s actions would be even more shameful and unacceptable to the world!
Hence, Lin Yuelan could only compromise.
Perhaps Xiao Jingrui had thought of this, so he used Jiang Yunfeng as bait. After fishing Jiang Zhennan and Lin Yuelan in, it would be difficult to escape because there was already a big net outside!
Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan were very clear about the current situation. They looked at each other in tacit understanding.
After that, Lin Yuelan said,” Alright, I promise you! But,” she glanced at the people in front of her and said sternly,” Let go of these villagers first!”
“Haha…” Xiao Jingrui suddenly laughed loudly again, “Princess Guguo, do you think I’m a fool? Let them go? If I let them go, do I still have any bargaining chips to threaten you?”
Lin Yuelan also knew that Xiao Jingrui would never agree to such a condition..
