Chapter 740 Death
Clearly, Ishan did not like this.

He struggled a few more times under the iron net with all his might. The iron net was somehow made, heavy and soft, as if it were stuck to his body, pressing down on every inch of him. His desperate struggles were still in vain.

When his efforts were in vain, Ishan let out an angry howl from under the iron fence.

"Shh! Don't shout!" Yan Daoxin sat down next to the steps. "I've been so pent up these past few months, I have so much to say but no one to talk to. Perfect timing, I'll talk to you now and let the fight break up for a bit."

Actually, you shouldn't feel resentful. Lu Qing saw through your little tricks a long time ago.

It was because they noticed the poisonous incense that they found an opportunity for me to examine the Emperor's pulse and confirm that he had already suffered from chronic poisoning. That's why they deliberately staged the scene later for Lu Ze and Consort Duan to see, using a death row inmate to help me stage a substitution.

As for me, I disguised myself as a palace attendant and stayed in the palace to help the emperor take care of his health.

His Majesty's health is now even better than before, which is truly disappointing!

All that elaborate planning and scheming, in the end, only resulted in the deaths of the remaining disciples and grand-disciples of his own sect, and the complete annihilation of his sect, but nothing else was affected!
If I were you, I'd be really upset about this!

"Or, while you're still alive, I'll prepare some medicine to reduce your internal heat?"

"I can tell you've been really holding back lately. Say less, there will be plenty of opportunities for you to speak later." Lu Qing and the others had already disposed of the other assassins' corpses, and now the main hall was clean again, as if nothing had happened.

He stepped forward and helped Yan Daoxin up from the steps, then respectfully took a few steps back and bowed with his hands clasped together with Lu Chao.

"Your Majesty, I am late in coming to your rescue. Please forgive me!"

"Your Majesty, I am late in coming to your rescue. Please forgive me!"

Emperor Jin looked at the two of them with satisfaction: "My sons, you have worked hard. If it weren't for your wisdom and resourcefulness, I wouldn't have the blessing to watch such a show here today."

"We can talk about our father-son relationship another time. I still have some questions for him to ask."

As he spoke, he stood up from the dragon throne, took a few steps forward, and moved to a place where Ishan could see him more clearly: "Why do you go to such lengths and do so many things?"
"It's one thing if it's just me, but why go and harm so many other innocent people?"

"Innocent people?" Ishan tilted his head, the weight of the iron net making it difficult for him to even lift his head. "Wasn't my sect originally innocent?!"

We were originally in the Vatican and never thought of setting foot on the land of Dajin. It was Zhao Bi who took a liking to my master and us fellow disciples for our skill in using poison. In order to gain merit in front of you, he used us to gain military merit for himself.

And you? You clearly benefited from all the advantages. If we hadn't been under Zhao Bi's command back then, eliminating your biggest rival in the power struggle, how could you have ascended to the throne so smoothly?!
And what happened? You got the benefits but still acted innocent! You said our methods of using poison were shameful and would damage our reputation if they were spread. Instead of rewarding us for our contributions and entrusting us with important responsibilities, you suppressed and treated us coldly!
Later, in order to make himself truly second only to the emperor, Zhao Bi did not hesitate to use our sect's abilities to eliminate dissidents and killed the entire Lu family, who disagreed with him politically and were the most threatening.

We did all the dirty work, but in the end, it was you who issued the decree to destroy our sect, and it was that old dog Zhao Bi who took action to wipe us out completely!

You have become respectable and upright people, while we have become villains whom everyone wants to kill!

But what did we do wrong?! We were just doing our duty, and we just thought it was a great opportunity to get ahead!

Why should all the blame fall on us in the end?! Emperor Jin was speechless, only looking at Ishan with complicated eyes, listening to his accusations filled with resentment.

When Ishaen got emotional, his breathing became rapid. It was clear that Yan Daoxin was not the only one who had been holding back for too long and had a lot to say but no one had the chance to say it.

"After that near-death experience, I finally understood what was so great about being at the top of the social hierarchy!"

No matter how glorious or powerful one may be, in the end, it all comes down to the ruler ordering the subject to die, and the subject has no choice but to die! In the end, one is nothing more than someone else's dog!

So I originally wanted to take revenge on Zhao Bi, seize your empire again, and make your descendants die tragically in front of you, so that you could also experience the taste of my sect being wiped out.

From now on, I can dominate the region and no longer have to be a sacrifice for others to climb the social ladder.

Unfortunately, all their efforts were in vain.

He stopped as he spoke, struggling to adjust his position under the iron mesh.

Lu Qing seemed to guess what he wanted to do and took two steps forward.

Ishan saw him and grinned, "Yes, I just wanted to see you, to see the bastard that my useless senior brother missed!"

Unfortunately, your wet nurse was too alert and noticed something was wrong, so she hid you beforehand!
If you hadn't left a single member of your family alive back then, if that old dog Zhao Bi had been a little smarter and more resourceful, he would have killed Lu Chao as well.

"Today, perhaps in this very hall, everything would have ended differently!"

Emperor Jin listened silently to Ishaen's words, said nothing, turned around and returned to his dragon throne, slowly sitting down.

"Your Majesty..." Seeing that Emperor Jin's expression was not very good, and thinking about what Ishaen had just said, "Why listen to the scoundrel's nonsense! You can't expect anything good to come out of a dog's mouth!"

Emperor Jin remained silent for a while before saying to Lu Qing, "He is also someone you have a blood feud with. Although he wasn't the one who infiltrated your house, it's still related to his entire sect."

Therefore, I leave the decision of how to deal with this person to you.

Lu Qing stepped forward, stood beside the iron net, and looked down at Ishaen below the net: "Your Majesty, if it were up to my conscience, I would want to make this person wish he were dead, to suffer the torment of the rest of his life, so that I could at least slightly alleviate the hatred caused by the deaths of dozens of people in my family."

However, what this fiend said earlier is indeed reasonable; acting decisively, without dragging things out, and avoiding leaving any potential problems for the future is the most important thing.

As he spoke, he drew the sword from his waist, lowered the tip, and thrust it downwards with force.

The iron net was pierced by his sword, and the gleaming blade went straight through Ishan's chest.

The demon beneath the iron net let out a muffled groan and then fell silent.

Because my updates were slow during my recovery period, and I promised to update more before the story ends, I'll keep my promise and post five consecutive updates of the main story tomorrow!
