Superpower Small Farmer

Although the Divine King was furious, he did not pursue the invasion army but instead sounded the horn to retreat, not to cease hostilities, but to regroup the troops for thorough preparation, gearing up the forces for an even greater war.

The Divine Kingdom is not easily bullied, and the Divine King is determined to make the invading nation pay the rightful price. Now, the Divine King first settled down the Divine Pattern Master and his family, then arranged a banquet to honor Wang Xiaoqiang.

Entering the Imperial Palace again, Wang Xiaoqiang was different from before. Previously, Wang Xiaoqiang held the title of Imperial Son-in-Law, merely an in-law without any real power.

Now, Wang Xiaoqiang is a hero, even the Divine King must show him some respect, and thus, the treatment he receives is vastly different.

Initially, in the eyes of the People of the Divine Kingdom, Wang Xiaoqiang was akin to a traitor. But now, he openly sits in the Jade Banquet Hall of the Divine Kingdom Palace, enjoying the highest-tier delicacies, puzzling and perplexing the people of the Divine Kingdom.

Upon inquiry, they found that Wang Xiaoqiang had helped the Divine Kingdom lift the siege, thus becoming a great hero of the Divine Kingdom, consequently changing their view of him, showing respect one after another.

With music and dance to enliven the feast, Wang Xiaoqiang was enjoying the meal with the Divine King in the Jade Banquet Hall, when suddenly a voice came from outside the hall, crying out in grief and anger, "Let me in, I want to see the Divine King. I want to redress the wrongs done to my son. I want to accuse Wang Xiaoqiang of being a murderer…"

How did Wang Xiaoqiang, now a great hero, become a murderer?

The Divine King was perplexed, but Wang Xiaoqiang knew all too well; it was that relative, the Divine King's nephew Qin Sheng. He had killed Qin Sheng, and the truth seemingly came out, prompting Qin Sheng's father, Qin Zhong, to come forward with an accusation.

Before Wang Xiaoqiang set out on the expedition, Qin Sheng recklessly caused trouble at Hanging Mountain, intending to violate Wang Xiaoqiang's woman, resulting in Wang Xiaoqiang killing him.

After Qin Sheng's death, Qin Zhong conducted a thorough investigation, expending great efforts, finally discovering clues, realizing that Wang Xiaoqiang had killed his son and destroyed the evidence. Later, Wang Xiaoqiang was branded a traitor. The Divine King dispatched forces against him, Qin Zhong thought Wang Xiaoqiang was doomed, and the Divine King killing Wang Xiaoqiang would be avenging his son. But unexpectedly, Wang Xiaoqiang not only survived but became a hero, invited by the Divine King to partake in a meal at the Jade Banquet Hall, receiving the highest honor of the Divine Kingdom.

Qin Zhong was caught off guard and extremely furious, unable to suppress the injustice in his heart, he came to file a complaint.

The Divine King saw Qin Zhong making a racket outside, disturbing his meal with Wang Xiaoqiang, so he shouted angrily, "Who dares to make noise outside?"

Immediately a servant reported, "Report to the Divine King, it is Lord Qin."

The Divine King naturally recognized Qin Zhong's voice and frowned, "Why has he come?"

"Report to the Divine King, Lord Qin has come to, to…" The servant glanced at Wang Xiaoqiang hesitantly, Wang Xiaoqiang interjected, "Lord Qin has come to accuse me. Let him in, let us have a clear discussion."

The Divine King gestured, "Go, invite him in."

"Yes," the servant responded, went out, and brought Qin Zhong in. Upon seeing Wang Xiaoqiang, Qin Zhong's eyes turned red, almost spewing fire with boundless hatred, then he knelt before the Divine King, tearfully pleading, "Divine King, you must seek justice for your subordinate,"

The Divine King originally intended to discuss with Wang Xiaoqiang how to deal with the invading nation, seeing Qin Zhong like this, he was quite displeased and frowned, "What injustice do you have, speak quickly, we have important matters to discuss."

Qin Zhong pointed at Wang Xiaoqiang, recounting in detail how Wang Xiaoqiang killed his son Qin Sheng, saying, "Divine King, Qin Sheng is your nephew, he died unjustly, you must redress his wrongs,"

In the House of the Emperor, there is no familial affection. Not to mention a nephew, even if it were the Divine King's son, Wang Xiaoqiang killed him and that was that. As long as Wang Xiaoqiang is useful to the Divine King, helping him fight against the invasion army, planning grand ventures and conquering the realm together, the Divine King wouldn't hold it against him.

The Divine King frowned deeply, "You say Little Qiang killed Qin Sheng, what proof do you have?"

Wang Xiaoqiang knew that since Qin Zhong discovered his son was killed by him and came to file a complaint, he must have evidence. Without waiting for him to produce it, Wang Xiaoqiang directly said, "There's no need for further discussion, I killed Qin Sheng."

The Divine King also suspected Wang Xiaoqiang was the murderer, because after all Qin Sheng was his nephew, yet truly no one in the Divine Kingdom dared to kill him except Wang Xiaoqiang. Wang Xiaoqiang had the audacity and ambition, having killed the head commander Tangg Xiongshan, let alone Qin Sheng.

Only the Divine King did not expect Wang Xiaoqiang to confess directly. Originally, the Divine King wanted to muddle through it, but since Wang Xiaoqiang admitted, he was put in a difficult position.

Wang Xiaoqiang turned his gaze to Qin Zhong, "Lord Qin, indeed, I killed your son. You should know the location where the incident occurred, right?"

Qin Zhong was surprised that Wang Xiaoqiang would so straightforwardly confess his crime, gritting his teeth, he said, "At your Hanging Mountain. You committed murder, silenced witnesses, destroyed the body, even reduced his Divine Chariot to ashes. You are truly cruel."

Wang Xiaoqiang calmly replied, "I am the Divine Kingdom Consort; usually, I have no interactions with Qin Sheng. Why did he come to my Hanging Mountain?"

Qin Zhong did not expect Wang Xiaoqiang to say this, glaring, "How should I know?"

Wang Xiaoqiang turned his gaze to the Divine King, "I know that as a relative, Qin Sheng enjoyed the treatment and superior life of the Imperial Clan, idling away, engaging in dissolute behavior, harming women. That day, he stormed our Hanging Mountain intending to harm my family, fortunately, I discovered him, defended myself, and accidentally killed him,"

Wang Xiaoqiang finished speaking, then added, "Divine King, convict me, I am guilty of excessive self-defense,"

The Divine King bewildered, "Excessive self-defense? What kind of crime is that? Never heard of it before. Qin Sheng intended to harm your family, such wickedness, you killed him, isn't that justified? Is there a mistake therein?"

Qin Zhong pointed at Wang Xiaoqiang, telling the Divine King, "Pure nonsense, utter lies, Divine King, do not heed this villain. This child's insidiousness and ambitions are revealed blatantly, killing relatives, slaying the commander, rebel and traitor, his crimes are beyond description, please Divine King, act decisively, eliminate this menace."

How could the Divine King not know Qin Sheng's character, a notorious wastrel, committing every vile act imaginable, his crimes enough to warrant death multiple times over? Wang Xiaoqiang killed him, Qin Sheng died, and he deserved it. Originally the Divine King wanted to make light of the matter, after all, Qin Zhong's wife is his sister. Now seeing Qin Zhong being verbose, unable to recognize error, even urging him to kill Wang Xiaoqiang, amidst it all, the Divine King grew intensely furious.

With Wang Xiaoqiang's current strength, not only is the Divine King unable to kill him, but also Wang Xiaoqiang is a hero, and the future of the Divine Kingdom. In the near future, this Ancient Continent is his domain, now Qin Zhong wants him to kill the future ruler of the Ancient Continent.

This is utterly laughable, truly lacking awareness of the situation. The Divine King barely hesitated, waving his hand, "Take Qin Zhong out and execute him."
