Chapter 1598: Chapter 100 Wang Shouzhe! Just Kill Already
…
“Senior Green Phoenix, Shouzhe is only two hundred years old this year… May I ask your esteed age?” Wang Shouzhe cupped his hands and said nonchalantly.
Two hundred years old? What?
The Green Phoenix Demon Emperor’s charming face froze in shock.
Does this an that this so-called Great Demon King Shouzhe is much, much, much younger than Cui’er?
Regarding Fierce Beasts and Spirit Beasts, their lifespan varies greatly depending on the species. Among Spirit Beasts, the Phoenix Clan is considered one of the longer-lived races. Despite Green Phoenix’s youthful appearance after transforming into human form, her actual age is far older than Longchang and King Chaoyang.
Two hundred years is but a blink of an eye in her perspective.
“You, what do you an by this?” The Green Phoenix Demon Emperor hesitantly responded, her tone clearly less forceful.
“Nothing in particular. How about we start by settling accounts?” Wang Shouzhe remained calm, raising his fingers to count as he spoke, “First, the dical fees, loss of work compensation, and reparations for injuring our Emperor amount to three million Immortal Crystals. Do you have any objections to this?”
“Objections? That old scoundrel Longchang plundered our nation’s Top-quality Spirit Vein and even dared to speak rudely. beating him up was perfectly justified.” The Green Phoenix Demon Emperor, provoked, glared at him with her phoenix-like eyes flaring.
“That Top-quality Spirit Vein is located three thousand miles away from your nation’s traditional border.” Wang Shouzhe produced a detailed map of the Southern Wilderness, clearly marking the borderlines of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom and the precise location of the Spirit Vein. “According to international conventions, possession is determined either by the finder or by strength. Since you, Senior Green Phoenix, have fallen into our hands, we naturally have the right to settle this dispute with you.”
“Hmph!”
The Green Phoenix Demon Emperor turned her head away in refusal to argue further.
Man is the knife, and I am the fish. What more is there to say?
“Then let’s proceed to the second matter.” Wang Shouzhe continued calculating, “Senior Green Phoenix, your unauthorized intrusion into Wang Family’s jurisdiction involves multiple offenses, naly: ‘Espionage,’ ‘Robbery,’ ‘Theft,’ ‘Illegal Trespassing into Jurisdiction,’ ‘Endangering Public Safety,’ ‘Unauthorized Entry into Noble Family’s Main Residence,’ ‘Attempted Kidnapping of Noble Family Head,’ ‘Attempted Abduction of the Family’s Guardian Spirit Beast,’ ‘Violent Resistance to Arrest,’ ‘Disruption of Neighboring Nations’ Friendly Relations,’ and ‘Damage to Interracial Harmony.’ Do you have any objections to these charges?”
Listening to the long list of charges, the Green Phoenix Demon Emperor’s phoenix eyes grew larger and larger.
She had initially prepared herself to endure the classic “beautiful maiden defeated” storyline upon losing and being captured.
But unexpectedly, this Great Demon King Shouzhe had not the slightest interest in her body and instead presented her with charge after charge.
She had simply wandered around the city – how could she possibly have committed so many cris? Could this brat be spouting nonsense?
“Senior Green Phoenix, do not think Shouzhe is deceiving you.” Wang Shouzhe took out several thick volus of Daqian Law from his Storage Ring, as well as a volu of Wang Family’s jurisdiction managent regulations, stacking them in front of the Green Phoenix Demon Emperor. “All related regulations can be found in these law books. You can research them thoroughly or argue your defense.”
“…”
The Green Phoenix Demon Emperor, though well-lived and literate enough to understand human scripts, felt a headache coming on upon seeing such hefty legal tos. She couldn’t help but say, “Enough, enough, whatever you say is true.”
She already had so level of psychological acceptance for defeat narratives, so what was additional law accountability?
“Then in that case, may I ask Senior Green Phoenix to sign and place your seal on the admission of guilt?” Wang Shouzhe swiftly listed out the charges, wrote them down, and handed the docunt to her for signature and seal. “Voluntarily admitting guilt can reduce so of the penalties.”
“Wang Shouzhe, you… you truly won’t force anything upon , will you…?” The Green Phoenix Demon Emperor grasped the pen, staring suspiciously at Wang Shouzhe.
“Senior Green Phoenix, forcibly violating a woman’s will is a blatant violation of Daqian Law. Just because the Emperor doesn’t know better, doesn’t an I don’t.” Wang Shouzhe replied solemnly. “Moreover, this is an era of harmonious, law-abiding society. I, Wang Shouzhe, have a wife and children, enjoy a peaceful and stable family life, and belong to a positive, healthy family atmosphere. Forget about forcing myself upon you; even if you tried to force yourself upon , I would steadfastly resist.”
“ forcing myself upon you?” The Green Phoenix Demon Emperor’s phoenix eyes widened incredulously.
“Ahem, I was rely providing an example.” Wang Shouzhe said seriously. “What I ant is that the kind of situation you’re imagining between us is practically impossible. You can rest assured.”
Hearing his assurances, the Green Phoenix Demon Emperor finally felt relieved of her worries, but for so inexplicable reason, a faint sense of humiliation struck her. With mixed emotions, she signed the admission of guilt.
“Since Senior Green Phoenix has admitted guilt, the penalties can be significantly reduced.” Wang Shouzhe, satisfied, put away the admission docunt. “If you actively compensate the damages you caused and promptly pay fines and reparations, the penalties can be further mitigated. Otherwise, these charges alone could condemn you to a thousand years of hard labor.”
“How much compensation would it take for to regain my freedom imdiately?” Seeing Wang Shouzhe’s “reasonable” deanor, the Green Phoenix Demon Emperor tentatively asked with a glimr of hope.
“Three to five billion Immortal Crystals, but the exact amount needs detailed calculations.” Wang Shouzhe answered truthfully. “Most likely around three billion, since Senior Green Phoenix has been quite cooperative in admitting guilt.”
