"An apology? That's all?!"
Suddenly, Xue Beng jumped out, pointed at Xuan Hao, and roared with a ferocious expression, "You think you can get away with this by apologizing?! My hand is broken!"
"I want you to kneel down! Kowtow and admit your mistake!!"
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo's face instantly darkened.
idiot!
Why not just stop while you're ahead? Why push things to the extreme?
Xuan Hao stopped in his tracks.
He slowly turned his head, and a chilling killing intent flashed in his originally calm sky-blue eyes.
"Kneel down?"
"Pfft!"
With just one look, Avalanche seemed to have all his bones removed. His legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground, his whole body trembling violently and uncontrollably. There was even a suspicious wet patch seeping from his crotch.
"enough!"
Seeing this, Prince Xuexing knew that he couldn't let Xuebeng lose face any longer, but he also knew that if he couldn't get back on his feet today, his entire group would be completely disgraced.
Moreover, since we've already offended them to the bitter end, we can only go down this path to the bitter end.
"Boy, assaulting a prince is a grave offense!"
Prince Xuexing stepped forward, blocking Xue Beng, and said coldly, "Even if you apologize, you cannot escape this crime!"
"A serious crime?"
Xuan Hao raised an eyebrow. "Yesterday, His Highness the Crown Prince himself said that this matter should end here and not be pursued further. What, is Your Highness treating the Crown Prince's words as nothing?"
Prince Xuexing's face darkened: "Qinghe is magnanimous, but as a member of the royal family, I absolutely cannot tolerate such a thing happening!"
"Fine." Xuan Hao sighed and spread his hands helplessly. "Since you all insist on treating the Crown Prince's words as nonsense, then I'll just pretend I farted too."
"Since an apology isn't working, let's try another way."
Xuan Hao pointed to the avalanche on the ground, "I beat him up yesterday, so now, let him beat me up, and I won't fight back, is that alright?"
"Fight back, and we'll be even."
"This……"
Prince Xuexing paused for a moment, glancing at the growing crowd of onlookers around him.
This is indeed a way to save face. It allows them to vent their anger while also demonstrating that the royal family is "clear about right and wrong" and does not use their power to oppress others.
"it is good!"
Prince Xuexing gritted his teeth and kicked the avalanche on the ground. "What are you all standing there for? Get up! They're telling you to fight back, aren't you scared?!"
Upon hearing this, a ruthless glint flashed in Xue Beng's eyes.
Not fight back?
You're asking for it!
He struggled to his feet, channeled the meager amount of soul power within his body, concentrated it in his intact left hand, gritted his teeth, and charged fiercely towards Xuan Hao.
"Go to hell!!"
however.
Just as his fist was about to touch Xuan Hao.
Xuan Hao didn't even move, but his eyes changed instantly.
The sky blue faded, replaced by a pair of cold, majestic, crimson-gold vertical pupils that seemed to come from the ancient wilderness!
"Om-"
Avalanche felt his soul power freeze instantly, his martial spirit groaned and shrank back into his body, and all his strength vanished in that one glance.
His fist froze in mid-air, trembling, but he couldn't bring it down.
That fear was ingrained in my very bones.
"What's wrong? Do it." Xuan Hao looked at Xue Beng expressionlessly.
"I'm right here, you can hit me."
"Let's do it!"
Chapter 38 Unexpected Events
……
Xue Beng looked into Xuan Hao's crimson-gold vertical pupils and felt as if the blood in his body had frozen.
He wanted to stand up, to fight back like a prince, but his body felt as if all the bones had been removed, as limp as a lump of mud.
The fear that came from the depths of his soul made him instinctively shrink back, trembling so much that he couldn't utter a complete word.
"You...you stay away..."
The avalanche sounded like a sob, his trousers were soaked, and he looked so disheveled that he had lost all semblance of a prince's dignity.
The entire room fell into a deathly silence.
Prince Xuexing and Dugu Bo stood aside, watching this scene, feeling their old faces burning with shame.
They came in a huge commotion to settle scores, but what happened? Before the person they were looking for could even make a move, the person they were supposed to support knelt down and was so scared he wet himself!
His face was practically being rubbed into the ground!
Just when things were at their most awkward, a gentle and clear voice broke the deadlock.
"Are they all here?"
Everyone turned around and saw Xue Qinghe leading Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo Chenxin into the hall at a leisurely pace.
Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Xue Qinghe breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, no one had made a move yet.
According to information gathered by the Serpent Spear, Yue Guan has returned to Wuhun City, but Gui Mei is still in Tiandou City, most likely secretly guarding Xuan Hao.
If Dugu Bo makes a move, Gui Mei will definitely follow suit. At that time, the relationship between Xuan Hao and the Spirit Hall will be exposed, and it will be much more difficult for him to win over Xuan Hao.
"Royal Uncle, Mr. Dugu." Xue Qinghe nodded slightly to the two, displaying impeccable manners. Then, his gaze swept over the avalanche on the ground and the confronting Xuan Hao, and he asked knowingly:
"What's going on? Why is there such a big commotion?"
Upon seeing Xue Qinghe, Prince Xuexing's expression changed, but he still forced a smile and said, "It's nothing, just a small misunderstanding. Xue Beng was wronged yesterday, and I brought him here... to seek justice."
"Seeking justice?" Xuan Hao sneered. "I think they beat up the younger one, and now the older one has come, ready to bully the weak, huh?"
"Everyone says the Star Luo Empire is a bunch of barbarians who only know how to fight and kill, while the Heaven Dou Empire is a land of etiquette. Seeing this today, I've truly had my eyes opened!"
"You—!" Prince Xuexing's face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot, but he couldn't utter a single word in rebuttal.
Dugu Bo's face was extremely ugly, and a murderous intent flickered in his dark green eyes.
"It's a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding."
Xue Qinghe quickly stepped in to smooth things over, not wanting the situation to spiral out of control. "Uncle is just doing this out of love for his nephew. Sect Leader Ning, don't you agree?"
Ning Fengzhi understood immediately and stepped forward with a smile: "Yes, it's just children's squabbles. Why make such a scene? Mr. Dugu is a renowned Title Douluo. If word gets out that you're arguing with two children, it might damage your reputation."
"Humph!"
Dugu Bo snorted coldly and said irritably, "If I really wanted to settle this, this brat would be dead already! It's because this brat is too arrogant and disrespectful to his elders that I want to teach him a lesson!"
"Lectering me?"
Xuan Hao sneered and looked directly at Dugu Bo without fear. "I know you old bastard, you've wanted to make a move for a long time, but you just couldn't find an excuse and were afraid of losing face."
"So you were trying to provoke me just now, trying to make me disrespect you, so that you could take action with a clear conscience."
"If that's the case, why hide it? Don't try to have your cake and eat it too."
Xuan Hao stepped forward, looking directly into Dugu Bo's cold eyes:
"If you have the guts, once you've thought it through, just take action."
“I’ll stand right here and I absolutely won’t run away.”
"but……"
Xuan Hao's voice suddenly deepened, and a flash of crimson-gold light appeared in his eyes:
"Although I am a magnanimous person, I am not so indifferent to everything. If you lay a hand on me, you will have to bear the consequences."
"Dugu Bo, do you think... you can bear the consequences?"
These words caused an uproar in the audience.
An eight or nine-year-old child is threatening a Title Douluo?!
A hint of doubt flashed in Ning Fengzhi's eyes.
Where does this kid get his confidence from? Does he think he can act recklessly just because he has the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School backing him? No, he might not even know Jian Shu's identity.
Xue Qinghe understood perfectly. This confidence must have come from the Ghost Douluo in the shadows. Besides, this kid was the Pope's disciple. Given that woman's temper, if this kid were really bullied by Dugu Bo, she would definitely retaliate!
Dugu Bo was also taken aback by Xuan Hao's sudden display of toughness.
He may be arrogant, but he's not stupid.
This kid not only wasn't afraid of a Title Douluo, but he even dared to threaten them. His confidence was definitely not feigned.
Furthermore, Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin were also present...
"Hmph! Nonsense!"
Dugu Bo finally backed down. He snorted coldly and waved his sleeve, "This old man won't stoop to the level of a mere brat!"
After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the hotel without looking back.
“Mr. Dugu…” Prince Xuexing was dumbfounded when he saw that his greatest reliance had left.
"Let's go too!"
Xuexing glared at Xuanhao, then ordered someone to lift the still trembling avalanche and slunk away.
