Douluo: Divine Fire Xuanyuan

Chapter 250: Titled Douluo's Head

Seeing this ninth-level soul guide, Xu Tianran became even angrier.

It would have been fine to let Yuwen Tuo live in Mingde Hall before. After all, Yuwen Tuo was a prince, and it was just a small request to stay in Mingde Hall for a while. It was normal that Jing Hongchen felt embarrassed to refuse.

But now he has even given him the ninth-level soul guide Red Dust Blessing. Isn't it obvious that he is standing on Yuwen Tuo's side?

Is he going to help Yuwen Tuo win the throne?
Xu Tianran guessed that Yuwen Tuo must have told Jing Hongchen the secret that he was a eunuch, which made Jing Hongchen change his target so quickly. If so, Jing Hongchen would not be able to stay in the future.

Xu Tianran was about to strike again when the emperor finally arrived and roared, "Stop!"

The next moment, the person who moved before the emperor was a middle-aged man whose face was somewhat similar to Xu Tianran.

It was Xu Tianyuan, the leader of the Imperial Dragon Soul Mentor Group.

"As princes, one of you is outspoken and insults your brother in the palace, and the other one is ruthless and kills his own brother. How can this be disgraceful? Do you want to disgrace the royal family of the Sun and Moon Empire?" Xu Tianyuan lectured the two of them in a cold voice.

"Brother, I know I'm wrong. It's really Prince Yan who bullied me too much. I'm the crown prince of the Sun and Moon Empire, but he repeatedly spread rumors that I'm a eunuch. How can I tolerate this?" At least at this moment, Xu Tianran still respected Xu Tianyuan.

After all, Xu Tianyuan is not only his cousin, but also one of the Sun and Moon Nation Protectors and the leader of the Imperial Dragon Soul Mentor Corps. He is in a high position and has great power. It will not be good for the succession to offend him.

"Prince Yan, do you have an explanation for this matter? No matter how the Crown Prince has offended you, in terms of reason, he is your brother, and in terms of righteousness, he is the Crown Prince. You are both his brother and his subject. If you don't give a reasonable explanation and offend me like this, even if you are extremely talented, I will not tolerate you!" Xu Tianyuan, like the emperor, was more inclined to Xu Tianran.

It's human nature. After all, Xu Tianran grew up under their care, while Yuwen Tuo was just picked up.

"Whether it's a rumor or not, you can find out for yourself if you investigate. I'm doing this for the sake of the Sun-Moon Empire. After all, the future emperor of the Sun-Moon Empire can't be a eunuch, right?" Yuwen Tuo said fearlessly, "How about this, Your Majesty, please come forward and examine him yourself. I'm a great doctor, and in my opinion, his impotence is probably caused by damaged meridians in his lower body. After you examine him yourself, if the symptoms aren't what I described, I'll let you do whatever you want."

Yuwen Tuo is a medical expert. He can tell Xu Tianran’s illness at a glance and even cure it. But even if he is bored, he will not treat him.

Wouldn't it be better to just let him be a dead eunuch for the rest of his life?

"Hmm?" Xu Tianyuan frowned. Yuwen Tuo spoke so confidently and even vowed to accept any punishment. Could it be true?

If this is true, then Xu Tianran would definitely not be able to become emperor. As Yuwen Tuo said, how could the emperor of an empire be a eunuch?

The emperor arrived a step later than Xu Tianyuan, but he just happened to hear their conversation. He immediately ordered his attendants to leave and ordered the army to block all areas of the East Palace, not allowing anyone to come in.

Whether this matter is true or false, no one can know it.

Before this, Yuwen Tuo had been scolding Xu Tianran. He could still say that he just had a conflict with his brother and was just making it up. But if it was really verified, he would never allow outsiders to know about it, otherwise the royal family would lose face.

"Tianran, is what Prince Yan said true?" The emperor looked at Xu Tianran with sharp eyes.

"Father, I am your son." Xu Tianran didn't know how to explain for a moment.

Are you saying that Yuwen Tuo is talking nonsense?

It sounds simple enough to say this, but now the emperor and Xu Tianyuan are already suspicious. They will definitely check later. What's the point of denying it?

As expected, the most difficult thing to refute in this world is the truth. He now hated Yuwen Tuo so much. If it weren't for him, how could his father and Xu Tianyuan know this biggest secret.

After hearing Xu Tianran's hesitant answer, the emperor and Xu Tianyuan knew that this matter was most likely true.

Thinking of this, the Sun and Moon Emperor almost vomited blood. The prince he had carefully chosen, the prince he was unwilling to replace even if his legs were disabled, was actually a eunuch.

He felt that his life span, which was already short, was shortened by several years.

"Tuo'er, I order you, no matter what the truth of this matter is, you are not allowed to spread a single word about it from now on." The emperor looked at Yuwen Tuo with sharp eyes.

As for other things, he could tolerate Yuwen Tuo's reckless behavior because of his talent and background.

But this matter is so important that if we are not careful it may cause turmoil in the court.

The prince has been in the court for many years and has a strong foundation and complex power. Even if he is really a eunuch, it is impossible to replace him in a short time.

So now the emperor's first thought is to conceal this secret first, and then see if he can find a way to cure Xu Tianran. If it really doesn't work, he will make other plans.

"Alright, I've scolded him enough today anyway." Yuwen Tuo said with a smile, "Actually, I didn't come here for this matter. I came here to give him a gift. But I called out to him outside the East Palace for a long time, but he ignored me, so I had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure."

"A gift?" Everyone then noticed that Yuwen Tuo was holding a wooden box in his hand. Was this a gift for the prince?
Their relationship is not good, and this is most likely not a good thing.

"Yes, Your Majesty, let me ask you a question. What is the crime of assassinating the prince?" Yuwen Tuo asked the emperor.

The emperor answered without hesitation, "Of course it's a capital crime with the confiscation of property and extermination of the clan."

"Well, that's right. I think His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must think so too. On my way back from the Demon Forest, I was intercepted and killed by such a villain, but he was too weak and I killed him. The box contains a human head. The person who assassinated the prince must be a traitor. I will give the traitor's head to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who is concerned about the country and the people. It will surely make His Royal Highness the Crown Prince happy. I just don't know how His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will reward me?" As he said that, Yuwen Tuo opened the wooden box, threw the human head out, and then there was a curved shot from Ozora Tsubasa.

"Go away!"

The head fell in the form of a parabola just in front of Xu Tianran.

Xu Tianran took a closer look. How could he not recognize the familiar face that died with its eyes open?

"Shadow Douluo, Xuechen?"

Isn’t this Xuechen, the only Titled Douluo that belongs to him?

He had previously sent someone to monitor Yuwen Tuo, and told him to kill him instantly if he saw Yuwen Tuo alone.

But now, what was thrown in front of him was not Yuwen Tuo's head, but himself.

Yuwen Tuo smiled and said, "Your Highness, oh no, it should be Your Highness, the Crown Prince. Do you like this gift?"
