Chapter 124: Throne room
After the king spoke everything was silent and no one present dared to betray the others.
All those present except for Benedict were in charge of buying and distributing the resources for the Alba family but years ago they took part in the conspiracy that Benedict raised and only after receiving a lot of money did they accept.
Seeing that no one was speaking, Lewis no longer bothered to speak and said: "He condemned you and your families to death by hanging, Your descendants or ancestry do not deserve to live".
A man among them began to beg: "Your Majesty, my wife, and my son have nothing to do with this, please forgive them."
But Lewis only laughed coldly: "Then you, a servant of the king can get in with the children of this King but this King cannot kill the children of a miserable servant".
As for the others they felt similar but the king continued: "Guards, Arrest everyone and take them to the dungeon with their families and torture them for two months and then publicly execute them under the crimes of treason and put their names on the blacklist, destroy their corpses and descend to eat the pulverized pigs".
"Apparently this King has been so benevolent that the servants think this King will not seek revenge."
So the guards approached the kneeling people and one armed oneself with courage: "Even the children?"
Lewis only saw the Guard and meditated: "Sleep the children and kill them with poison, As for rape women in front of their husbands, If you don't want to do it just look for beggars to do it, the same applies to your daughters. Everyone over the age of 16 will be tortured and killed without exception."
Hearing this all present could not help but take a breath of cold air and could not help but see with fear the King seemingly this really anger him.
Not only did I want to be tortured physically but mentally by doing this. But Benedict could not help but exclaim: "My children are disciples of the martial city, If you do this to me they will come for revenge!"
But now it was Adam's turn and he said in a cold voice: "Hahaha, some little external disciples who are only in Body Refining, you really think I'm afraid of them".
"Benedict your children are a piece of trash, Nor with ten more years in the martial city will get into Gathering Qi, Because you think your execution will be in two months, is because I plan to go to the martial city by your bastards to accompany you."
Only then Benedict's last hope vanished and he couldn't help but age a few years. He knew he had to leave but with his strength, he couldn't leave the Region and if he didn't leave the region the Alba family could find them no matter what country they were in.
When the Keer family disappeared. Benedict wanted to pack his bags and leave but he couldn't, he had nowhere to go and moving all his money was something he couldn't do overnight and eventually, nothing happened to him so he thought he hadn't been caught. Staying in the capital of the Kingdom comfortably.
The only thing he could do was to accept his own destiny that he imposed on himself because if he had not participated in the conspiracy he could live a comfortable life until his natural death but not.
So with his head down he followed the guards and did not dare to rebel. While others continue to beg for mercy but the king became deaf ears and treated them like air.
When everyone left, Lewis could only sigh, but Adam said, "It's all your fault."
Lewis with his head down said, "I know," and gave an order: "Call Joanna, I have some questions to ask."
But in his voice, there was a tone of disappointment. He never thought that Isabella would betray like that and do this to the Alba family. He just hoped Joanna wouldn't disappoint him.
Adam wanted to keep scolding his son but Beth stopped him and they left in silence while Lewis could only see with empty eyes on the floor.
Already in the hallway, Adam said: "I will go to the martial city immediately, it will only take a few days to bring these bastards to reunite with their parents".
"But will the martial city deliver its disciples just like that?"
"I don't think so, but if we offer them the right benefits they will. If we make it public, they won't, but if we do it under the table, they will.
"What if that doesn't work?"
Then Adam showed a fierce expression and said: "Then, we will be enemies and when I enter the Realm Elemental, I will destroy the martial city.
"What are you going to give them?"
"1 elemental opening pill and 10 pills of pure qi in exchange for two external disciples seems fair to me"
So the elderly couple went to their room and Adam prepared for the trip with his speed it would not take more than three weeks to reach the Martial City and an idea crossed his mind: "Should he take Alexander?"
"Jejeje, a trip of grandfather and grandson!"
So he finished his preparations and left for Anna's villa.
Meanwhile, in the throne room, I was seeing a beautiful woman and the woman could not believe how sad the man was.
So the man could only say: "Joanna, Isabella poisoned my children, did you know that?"
Joanna widened her eyes from pair to pair with disbelief and her mind went blank, she could only think: "Isabella, what were you thinking?!"
But Lewis repeated the question: "Did you know?" and he remained looking heavily at Joanna, Before such a look Joanna could not do anything and quickly shook her head: "I did not know".
Lewis squinted and said, "So why wasn't Nathaniel poisoned like the rest?"
Joanna immediately explained: "Because my father told me that when I entered the royal palace I did not trust anyone and because of this, everything was organized by my father's servants but when I was pregnant, I never tasted anything from the palace, is that normal in royal families?"
Lewis sighed and thought, "Distrust everyone. Hey, this is the kind of family I want?"
(Was it a mistake to marry them?)
In the end, he said to Joanna: "Things have to change".
"Change?"
"Lewis could only see Joanna and say: "Arrogance is the beginning of all evil, but look where it has led us. We have to learn humility."
This made Joanna show a grim expression and could not help but think that Lewis was saying this for the things that happened to her: "Joanna, just think about what good it is to be arrogant with everyone?"
"To prove they're Lower!"
"And what do you want to prove that they are lower?"
"Satisfaction"
"But is that satisfaction worth a life?"
"What do you mean?"
Lewis in a serene voice: "A dominant personality is good but what happens when you are dominant with everyone blindly?"
Joanna hadn't responded when Lewis continued: "The only destruction awaits you. It's just like a young master from a prominent family seeing a beautiful woman on the street and taking his home."
Joanna didn't have the words for that and she refused: "You just have to be careful who you provoke!"
"But that's the problem, she never puts anyone in her eyes and will blindly provoke everyone thinking that her family is the strongest, Joanna right now we are like that young master idiot.
In the end Lewis stopped from the throne and said: "To see the world clearly one must be humble, if you think you can not understand me you can divorce me, the road you lead will only end badly but think about what happened to the elders of the palace, do you want to end like them?"
"We have provoked Anna and even conspired against her and look how we end each time,"
This caused Joanna to reprimand: "But Nathaniel will outdo Anna's son."
Lewis shook his head and said: "You know that I love Nathaniel and I love you, but I have to be honest today. I have to talk to Alexander and I think that Nathaniel will never get over it, but his distance will get bigger and bigger".
Joanna saw Lewis in disbelief and clenched her fists: "Why?"
Lewis with deep eyes said: "Just talk to him and you'll understand, Nathaniel and Alexander are in different leagues".
So Lewis stood in front of Joanna, touched her beautiful face with his hand and said: "I'm warning you because I do not want to lose you, you know you're the love of my life and always will be."
He touched Joanna's little waist and said, "Let's just live our lives, worrying about nothing but ourselves, no plans, conspiracies, that's my proposal."
Joanna blushed and said quietly, "What if someone provokes us?"
"We will defend ourselves, I'm not saying that we have to be docile I just want to say that we do not have to throw the first stone, Just as simple but not worthwhile to go looking for problems as we have done these years.
Lewis said quietly, "In this life as long as I have my Joanna, I don't care about anything else."
"And Isabella?"
Lewis sighed and said: "Everything has a time and if Isabella loves me I will not look for another couple, I am sure we will meet again".
Joanna chuckled, "Why so sure?"
Lewis with a confident expression said: "Because if you do not come, I'll go for her, you owe me a good explanation for what he did".
"Would you do the same for me?"
"Sure, if one day you run away, I'll look for you all over the world until I die."
Joanna laughed like a naughty girl: "Hahaha, says the man who almost died to leave the region."
This darkened Lewis' face but he soon showed a slight smile: "It seems that a naughty girl needs a severe punishment".
So Lewis began to lower his hands towards Joanna's ass and began to play with her. This made Joanna tremble like a rabbit and said, "Big brother, I was joking."
"Ahhhh"
Lewis doesn't care about Joanna's pleas, he takes her in his arms and with deep eyes he said: "I've always wanted to do it in the throne room, haven't you?"
