Before long, Su Xian had swept the Instant Kill System's interface clean of all its flash-sale items, leaving not a single one behind.

Sigh~

He had only used a little over two million gold coins to slap the system in the face, yet it had already been beaten swollen and run out of stock. What a letdown!

But when he thought about how the next batch would arrive next month, Su Xian immediately perked up.

Slapping the system in the face with gold coins was his bounden duty!

No one could compete with him for it!!

"Why didn't it refresh a martial soul? Would it kill you to give me twin martial souls?"

Looking at his pile of junk, Su Xian felt like he would never make it in the Douluo transmigrator world.

Other people started out with twin martial souls or even more, while he only had one. Did he have no shame?!

Although he had no intention of cultivating a martial soul, having more martial souls was still awesome!

That was right!

Su Xian had no plans to cultivate martial souls. With the Instant Kill System, why the hell would he cultivate anything?!

Wouldn't it be great to peacefully be a carefree prince, abduct a beauty now and then to chat about se—

Pah!

Chat about feelings, then take a dog for a walk down the street when he had nothing else to do?

Cultivation?

He would never cultivate in this lifetime!

At most, he would spend a little money every month to buy a pile of junk and muddle through life...

Sigh!

Nothing was more troubling in life than suddenly losing one's goal to strive for, like being blind despite standing in broad daylight.

Of course!

That definitely wasn't because he wanted to be lazy!

That was right!

Absolutely not!

After rummaging through the pile of miscellaneous goods for a while, Su Xian put the "scraps" on the ground into his Storage Ring.

"Sigh~ This damn decadent life..."

Glancing at the luxurious palace before him, Su Xian could not help sighing. Then, grinning happily, he left the palace.

"First Prince! His Majesty summons you."

The moment Su Xian left the palace, before he could properly look around, two soldiers in silver armor stopped him.

"The emperor wants to see me?"

Su Xian froze, then immediately understood. He was Xue Qinghe now—the First Prince!

But what did that have to do with Su Xian?

Not going!

He wouldn't go even if it killed him!

He had not even properly enjoyed the sights of this other world yet!

"Tell Imperial Father that I have something to do right now. Tell him to find me another day."

With that, Su Xian waved a hand and left, leaving the soldiers dumbfounded.

Fuck!

He actually refused His Majesty's summons and even told him to come back another day?!

Fuck!

Was he the emperor, or was His Majesty the emperor? Were princes this tough these days?

Watching Su Xian vanish from sight in the blink of an eye, the two soldiers looked at each other, on the verge of tears.

"Wasn't the First Prince supposed to be refined, elegant, and kind to others?"

The fat soldier looked at the thin soldier. The bewilderment in his eyes made his meaning perfectly clear.

Without answering, the thin soldier kicked him.

"Fuck! What are you doing?!" The fat soldier flew into a rage.

"Seeing how much pain you're in, I know I'm not dreaming!" the thin soldier replied solemnly.

Fat soldier: ...

I have a fucking sentence about your mother that I don't know whether I should say or not!

"Damn it! I think you're asking for a beating!"

"Hiss~ That hurts, go easy on me, yamete, iku iku!!"

After leaving his Prince's Residence, Su Xian arrived on the streets of Heaven Dou City.

It had to be said that Heaven Dou City was truly enormous. Even its streets were frighteningly wide.

The ground was paved with neat grayish-white stone slabs. Su Xian even felt that roads in the modern world could not compare.

As for the towering Gothic Architecture that pierced the clouds, it was extravagantly luxurious. Any random one of those buildings, if placed in the modern world, would qualify as a high-end villa.

Of course, compared with the palace in his Prince's Residence, they were utter trash!

He was not showing off. He was merely stating a fact!

"But where should I go?"

Watching the crowds flow past, Su Xian rubbed his chin and pondered.

Food?

There was nothing special about food in this other world, and his residence already had it!

A school for martial soul cultivation?

There was no need for that. Seeing schools now made him feel sick!

Entertainment?

Mm-hm~ That could work!

Entertainment in another world was something the modern world did not have. It was exceptionally exciting!

For example, the Soul Arena, or those young ladies striving to make a living...

Slurp...

Gulp... He should hold back his drool for now and let it flow later!

Let's go!!

"You lowly bitch, you dare steal my steamed bun? I'll beat you to death!"

"Wuwuwu~ Stop hitting me! I'll give it back!"

He had only made it halfway when noisy curses, beatings, and crying suddenly flooded his ears.

Su Xian immediately turned his head. Not far away, a man dressed like a shop assistant was dragging a girl by the arm with his right hand while holding a stick in his left.

The girl looked no older than eleven or twelve. Her hair was disheveled, and she cried pitifully, tears streaming down her face. The sight made one's heart ache.

As for the surrounding passersby, they seemed long accustomed to such scenes. They merely glanced over before looking away.

There was nothing colder than human indifference!

"Sigh~ I'm just too kindhearted!"

Shaking his head, Su Xian quickened his pace and rushed over.

"Let go of that girl and let me handle it!"

"Pah! Let go of that girl! If you have a problem, come at me!" Su Xian immediately corrected himself and shouted.

"Kid, I advise you not to meddle in other people's business!" The shop assistant glared and roared.

So we're comparing who's more ruthless?

When I get ruthless, even I'm scared of myself!!

"Is one gold coin enough?!"

Su Xian directly took out a gold coin and threw it over. His face was solemn, but his heart bled.

Damn it!

A fraction of a Soul Bone, gone just like that!

Wuwuwu~

Showing off was too hard!

"Consider yourself lucky."

The shop assistant cast Su Xian a fearful glance, tossed those words at the girl, snatched up the gold coin, and ran off.

"Alright, miss, go home. Don't steal from others again."

As he spoke, Su Xian prepared to leave, only for the girl to grab him.

"I don't have a home anymore. Please take me in, Young Master, wuwu~"

With a thud, the girl fell to her knees. Tears streamed down her face, and her grief was indescribable, making Su Xian's heart ache.

Sure enough, there were unfortunate people everywhere. Sigh~

"Alright, then follow me. But from now on, you must listen to me."

After considering it for a moment, Su Xian helped the girl up and said.

"Mhm! Thank you, Young Master!"

Forcing out a smile, the girl let crystalline tears slowly roll down her soft, pink cheeks. She stared blankly at Su Xian, her eyes filled with gratitude.

"Since you're following me, don't keep thanking me. Look at you—you've cried yourself into a little tear-stained mess."

Smiling, Su Xian reached out and wiped the tears from her face, then tidied her dirty, messy hair.

"I didn't expect you to be quite pretty."

Looking at the delicate, soft, and adorable girl before him, Su Xian could not help teasing her before asking, "By the way, what's your name?"

"Young Master can call me Xue Er from now on," the girl answered timidly.

"Xue Er?"

"That's a nice name. It suits you very—"

His words abruptly stopped. Su Xian's face instantly darkened like ink, and in a stiff voice, he asked word by word, "I'll give you one chance to rephrase that. Say it again—what did you say your name was?!"
