Chapter 172: Punishment of Annihilation
rates to suffer heavy losses.Forty minutes later, the pirates' mechs immediately flew out of the defensive shield and returned to their own ship, beginning to brew for another attack. Some of the sta...Huoming, who had been forgotten for a long time, was dragged out of the prison cell. He was still dazed when he stood under the sun. The dazzling sunlight made him unable to open his eyes. Everything in front of him was bright. After he felt the scorching heat of the sun on his body, he finally confirmed that he was alive and had walked out of the dark prison.
Just as he wanted to savor the moment a little longer, someone pushed him from behind. He stumbled two steps before regaining his balance, and then a clear voice rang out:
"The Queen has decreed that you may return to the Dragon Kingdom with this peace delegation, hoping for your well-being."
Ho Mingliang was stunned for a long time before he understood. This was to send him back to Panlong Country, but what use would it be to go back now It was better to stay here, at least there was still a way to survive.
But this matter was not up to him to decide. He was pushed onto a carriage, and after the sound of a whip, the carriage set off. After fifteen days of non-stop travel, it finally arrived at Longling City, where the commander-in-chief of the border was located, just before Huo Mingliang's forces collapsed.
At this time, General Feng Di was in the main tent seeing Zhang Zhang. After hearing the report from his subordinates, he said to Zhang Zhang with a smile that did not reach his eyes:
"Since the emissary from Panlong Nation is so sincere, my Fengqi Nation cannot just sit idly by without making a gesture."
After speaking, he beckoned to the people beside him. Under Zhang Zhang's puzzled gaze, the one-armed Fifth Prince, also known as Huo Mingliang, was brought into the tent. When their eyes met, Zhang Zhang subconsciously exclaimed:
"The Fifth Prince"
Huo Mingliang didn't expect that after leaving his cell and rushing day and night, he would be sent back to Panlong Country. His face was numb, not knowing what expression to make.
"Cough! General Fengdi, what do you mean by this"
Zhang Zhang coughed and asked.
“This is your country's fifth prince! Don't you recognize him We didn't hire anyone to impersonate him, it's just that our queen has a soft heart and let him live until now. Your emperor should thank his fifth brother, otherwise he wouldn't have the chance to sit on the throne!”
Feng Di said sarcastically.
"
Zhang Zhang was also speechless. He hadn't expected that there were still loyal followers of the Fifth Prince lurking around the late emperor. If it wasn't for the news that the Fifth Prince's assassination attempt had failed, perhaps that favored concubine would have continued to lurk, and in the end, it might be hard to say who would get the flower.
Our sincerity has been expressed, now it's time to discuss the conditions for our ceasefire.
Feng Di didn't let Huo Mingliang leave either. She had him stand aside and listen to the negotiations between them.
Ho Mingliang became more and more frightened as he listened. He hadn't seen the sky in his prison cell, let alone another person to talk to, let alone any news. At this moment, he realized that the Panlong Kingdom was about to collapse; it was being attacked by the other three kingdoms simultaneously.
This matched the content of the novel he had read. The Phoenix Nest Country still existed, but the Panlong Country, which he had expected to prosper, was about to be destroyed. He felt flustered and unsure of his purpose for traveling to this time.
After the negotiations between the two sides broke down, Huo Mingliang was also pushed out of the tent. When he came to his senses, the cold-faced female driver who had brought him to Longling City in a carriage walked straight towards him.
Then, amidst the astonishment of the crowd, he pulled out a palm-sized piece of bright yellow paper from his bosom. With lightning speed, he slapped it onto Huo Mingliang's forehead and quickly withdrew his hand, looking at the bewildered Huo Mingliang and saying:
"The Queen tells me to inform you that everything in the world develops according to its own laws. As an outsider, if you want to intervene, you must pay the price. Considering that you haven't caused a major disaster yet, the Queen will only give you a lesson this time. Take your time and feel the process of your own demise."
After finishing, she curled her lips into a cold and disdainful smirk, then turned and walked away.
When everyone looked at Huo Mingliang again, they found that there was nothing on his forehead, and they turned their gaze to General Feng Di.
Fengti General pretended not to see and, taking his men, directly returned to his tent. Anyway, the person had already been handed over to Zhang Zhang, so the rest would be decided on the battlefield.
From the moment Huo Mingliang was pulled onto Zhang Zhang's vehicle frame, his expression became dazed. He had a feeling of being seen through, as if the Empress knew his past, which sent chills down his spine.
Upon returning to Panlong Kingdom, the new emperor saw his fifth brother, who was emaciated, had lost an arm, and looked dazed. Coupled with the news of the failed negotiations, a surge of anger rose within him, causing him to unsheath his sword and kill Huo Mingliang.
Huo Mingliang only felt a cold light flash before his eyes, and then he found his head flying up. The last thing he heard was: Throw him to the mass grave! Don't get in my way here!
Huo Mingliang's body was wrapped in a mat, and an old truck took him to a random burial ground. He was unceremoniously dumped there, and then everything returned to quiet.
Huo Mingliang was horrified to discover that his consciousness was incredibly clear. He knew with absolute certainty that he was dead, yet he couldn't leave this body.
That night, the next day, his clothes were stripped off him. The people who came muttered:
"Brother, please forgive me! We have been at war constantly, and we have been providing our soldiers at the front with meager rations by tightening our belts. But we ourselves have no clothes to wear and are struggling to even eat."
He could feel his body slowly rotting, and ants crawling into his decaying flesh. He endured the sun and rain, gradually revealing his bones. Then, one by one, more corpses were thrown upon him, crushing his fragile bones and burying him completely, enshrouded in deathly silence.
Huomingliang roared, struggled, and bellowed, but to no avail. It wasn't until his bones turned into dust that he felt his body lighten.
"Ah!" a scream burst from Huo Mingliang's mouth. He jolted upright, and the door swung open as a middle-aged woman rushed in, asking with concern:
"Liangliang, what's wrong Did you have a nightmare"
Huo Mingliang looked around in disbelief. This was his bedroom before he traveled through time, and the person in front of him was his mother. Her nervousness didn't seem fake.
"Mom, I'm home!"
"Are you being haunted You've been back for ages, it's almost midnight now."
A woman's eyes filled with astonishment as she said.
"With a slap," Huo Mingliang slapped himself hard across the face.
"Li'an, what's wrong with you Don't scare Mommy! Li'an's father, come quickly and see what's wrong with Li'an."
An hour later, Huo Mingliang finally confirmed that he had returned to his original world. He hadn't been killed or left to die without a trace. He thought about the other person's last words:
“This time, the Queen is only giving you a lesson. Take your time and feel the process of your own demise.”
Huo Mingliang's body jolted. He hurriedly went online, opened the novel, and deleted all his negative reviews and comments promoting male supremacy. Finally, he even deactivated his username to ensure he wouldn't be drawn back into that world.
"Wow, that's ruthless! I bet he won't leave any reviews for novels ever again."
The millstone sighed.
"Thinking oneself superior, interfering with the development of a small world based on subjective speculation, creating so much resentment, this level of punishment is already considered light."
