Douluo Continent: Half-level Innate Realm, but a Sword Cultivator with a Heart-Only Mind

Chapter 173 Avalanche, Xue Xing's Death, Xue Qinghe's Ascension to the Throne

Before Xue Beng finished speaking, the three people behind him immediately rushed towards Xue Qinghe, who was disguised as Qian Renxue.

Upon seeing this, the ministers standing nearby were horrified and shouted loudly.

"How dare you!!"

"Avalanche, are you plotting a rebellion?"

At the same time, the surrounding ministers unleashed their soul power in an attempt to stop the three guards from avalanche.

However, in the Heaven Dou Empire, powerful Soul Masters often served as military commanders.

Civil officials like them are either of low rank or have functional martial souls, and their combat power is not strong. How can they withstand two Soul Emperors and a high-level Soul Saint?

Seeing that the three of them had already rushed up to Xue Qinghe, Xue Beng's face showed a look of wild joy and anticipation.

"Die, die, die!"

As long as Xue Qinghe dies, he will be the new emperor of Tiandou!

But the next second, the two unassuming old men standing next to Xue Qinghe suddenly moved, casually patting him lightly.

Bang, bang!

Two powerful forces, each carrying immense soul energy, slammed into the two Soul Emperor guards. Their bodies were sent flying like broken kites, crashing heavily more than ten feet away, their flesh mangled and bloody.

Even Yuan Fang, a high-level Soul Saint, was sent flying by a single palm strike.

Of course, he was originally Qian Renxue's spy planted next to Xue Beng to encourage him to take risks. His attack on Xue Qinghe just now was just a pretense.

Both the Serpent Spear Douluo and the Porcupine Douluo showed mercy.

But from Avalanche's perspective, seeing that his most powerful confidant was no match for the two unassuming old men beside Xue Qinghe, his expression froze, and a strong sense of fear welled up in his heart.


This is it, everything is ruined!

Where did Xue Qinghe find these two old guys? How come they are so strong?

Could these two old men be Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo in disguise, who could send a high-level Soul Saint flying with a casual slap?

Otherwise, where would Xue Qinghe have found such a person?

Two powerful individuals?

Beside him, Prince Xuexing's heart skipped a beat upon seeing this, and he thought to himself, "This is bad, Xue Beng is completely finished now. With Xue Qinghe's methods, there is no way he will let Xue Beng go. I have to sever ties with him now."

Upon realizing this, Prince Xuexing, seeing that the situation was hopeless, did not hesitate for even a second. He immediately took a few steps back, pointed at the avalanche, and shouted loudly.

"Avalanche, how dare you attempt to assassinate the Crown Prince in the late Emperor's palace! This is utterly treasonous!"

Having said that, he faced Xue Qinghe and respectfully bowed, saying, "Your Highness, I, Xue Xing, request permission to execute Xue Beng!"

For a moment, not only was Xue Beng himself stunned, but the ministers present were also stunned, and even Xue Qinghe, disguised as Qian Renxue, showed a hint of surprise on his face.

Prince Xuexing truly deserves to be the one who survived the last struggle for the throne and secured his position as prince.

It was obvious to everyone that he was in cahoots with Avalanche, but seeing that things were going badly, he didn't hesitate for a second and immediately betrayed his teammates.

Of course, Xue Xing knew very well that the royal family valued face, and she had not yet made her stance clear. So even if Xue Qinghe disliked her, he would most likely spare her life, or at most imprison her.

Little did he know that the real Xue Qinghe had long since died, and how could Qian Renxue possibly care about the royal family's reputation?

At the same time, Xue Beng was shocked. He glanced at the three guards whose fates were unknown, then looked back at Prince Xue Xing, and was furious.

"Uncle, what do you mean by this? You were clearly involved in today's scheme, so how come I'm now accused of treason?"

Prince Xuexing's face darkened, and he said angrily, "Your Highness, please watch your words. I am not familiar with you, and I know nothing about what happened today."

"You...you!" Avalanche was furious when he saw Prince Snowstar trying his best to distance himself from him in order to save his own life.

At the same time, a strong will to survive surged into his heart, and he knelt down on the ground with a thud, pointing at Prince Xuexing and shouting, "Brother, it was all because of that old bastard Xuexing's instigation that I committed such a heinous crime. Please, brother, have mercy and forgive your younger brother this time."

Upon seeing this, Prince Xuexing angrily said, "Avalanche, stop talking nonsense here. When did I ever encourage you?"

After saying that, he turned his gaze to Xue Qinghe, his face filled with grief and indignation.

"I beg Your Highness to see the truth: I have lived my life on thin ice and have never participated in any treasonous activities."

Xue Qinghe watched the two fighting like dogs with a cold expression.

"Imperial Uncle, whether you have participated in treason is my own judgment."

After saying that, he looked at Serpent Spear Douluo and Porcupine Douluo and said in a deep voice, "Seniors, take them away. Royal family members should die in a way that is appropriate for them. Give them some dignity."

Upon hearing this, Avalanche and Prince Snowstar's pupils suddenly contracted.

"Big brother, I know I was wrong!"

"I'm your only brother now, please forgive me this time."

The avalanche panicked completely, kowtowing frantically until its forehead bled.

Xue Qinghe merely glanced at him disdainfully, thinking to himself, "You think you're worthy of being my brother?"

On the other side, Prince Xuexing was also panicked. He did not expect Xue Qinghe to be so ruthless, disregarding his reputation and not even letting him go.

With this thought in mind, Prince Xuexing gritted his teeth, unleashed his soul power, and turned to rush towards the palace gate.

He won't just sit and wait to die.

But no matter how fast he escaped, how could he possibly outrun two titled Douluo, Serpent Spear and Porcupine?

The moment he fled, Serpent Spear Douluo flashed and appeared at the entrance of the palace.

"This road is blocked!"

A faint voice sounded, followed by an unremarkable sound.

boom--

An overwhelming, almost tangible sense of oppression suddenly descended upon Prince Xuexing, instantly forcing him to kneel on one knee.

"I am a prince of the Heavenly Dou Empire, Xue Qinghe, you cannot kill me!!"

Xue Qinghe sneered, "From the moment you conspired with Xue Beng to rebel, you were no longer a prince of the Heavenly Dou Empire."

"Xue Qinghe, this is a frame-up! I refuse to accept it!" Prince Xue Xing shouted in a final struggle.

But Xue Qinghe scoffed.

"Xue Xing, do you really think all of you ministers are blind?"

After speaking, he looked at the other ministers present.

"Gentlemen, do you think those two deserve to die?"

The ministers exchanged glances.

Avalanche and Prince Xuexing assassinated Xue Qinghe in full view of everyone. Who dared to plead for them?

"Assassinating the Crown Prince is an unforgivable crime."

"We, your humble servants, request the execution of Xue Beng and Xue Xing!"

The unified sound echoed throughout the palace.

Xue Qinghe nodded in satisfaction, then looked at the Serpent Spear Douluo and the Porcupine Douluo.

"Gentlemen, suppress them and give them some dignity."

"Yes!" Without saying a word, Serpent Spear Douluo and Porcupine Douluo carried them out like chicks.

"No, I'm still young, I don't want to die!!" Avalanche struggled desperately, but to no avail.

"You want to kill me? I'll fight you to the death!"

Prince Xuexing tried to resist, but the Serpent Spear Douluo pressed two fingers onto his spine, instantly snapping it.

Even if a Soul Master's spine is broken and they don't receive treatment, they can only remain paralyzed.

Soon after, Serpent Spear Douluo and Porcupine Douluo came to report back.

Avalanche and Prince Snowstar had both taken specially made poison and were executed.

As expected, the two men's intention to assassinate Xue Qinghe did not cause any controversy after the news spread.

The next day, Xue Qinghe ascended the throne as emperor in the presence of all the officials.
