Xiao Yang's voice carried an unyielding will.
Chizuru was drenched in sweat, her heart pounding with fear. She had never expected the Ninth Young Master, who had always seemed weak and useless, to possess such a hard side!
"Ninth Young Master, I am your Fourth Brother's concubine. How dare you treat me like this?"
She thought that invoking her backer would do the trick.
"Shut up!"
Xiao Yang cut her off and pointed the tip of his blade at Kato's corpse on the ground. "I even dare to kill people. What is there that I wouldn't dare to do?!"
Every word carried bone-chilling killing intent, no less than that of soldiers who had fought on battlefields for years.
Thud!
Chizuru's legs gave out from fright, and she actually dropped to her knees. She removed her outer robe, exposing swathes of snow-white skin and her curvaceous figure.
For her to have been chosen by the Fourth Prince as a concubine, she naturally possessed a measure of beauty and striking looks.
Then, she actually wrapped her arms around Xiao Yang's leg and said in a coquettish voice, "Ninth Young Master, this servant knows she was wrong! How about this servant lets you ride her? Please don't punish this servant..."
She was actually trying to seduce him. After all, Xiao Yang was handsome and refined, far more attractive than the Fourth Prince. Even offering herself to him would not be a loss.
"Pah!"
Huangli trembled with rage and cursed, "This East Pole Island woman is truly shameless! She actually dares covet my Young Master's body!"
At that moment, Xiao Yang lowered his head and looked down at Chizuru, who was clutching his leg.
"You don't know you were wrong. You just know you're about to die!"
With that, he raised his right hand and slapped her.
Smack—!
Chizuru was sent flying and crashed heavily to the ground. The left side of her face immediately swelled high, blood seeping from the corner of her mouth.
"Since you refuse to slap yourself, I don't mind doing it for you! One hundred slaps—not one less!"
Xiao Yang walked toward her, ready to continue.
"Ahhh... No! Ninth Young Master, this servant will do it herself! This servant's life is cheap; please don't dirty your hand!"
Chizuru hurriedly begged for mercy. She knew that if Xiao Yang did it himself, she might not survive.
Smack! Smack! Smack...
She then raised both hands and slapped her own face back and forth.
"Put some strength into it. Didn't you eat enough? You lot, count for her!"
Xiao Yang shouted at the Fourth Prince's guards.
Having watched Kato get beheaded with a single strike, they were scared out of their wits and did not dare utter a peep.
"98!"
"99!"
"100!"
At last, after Chizuru had slapped herself one hundred times, her hands had gone limp and her face numb. It was swollen into a pig's head—probably so badly that even her own mother would not recognize her.
"Get lost! From now on, no barbarian from East Pole Island is allowed to set foot in my residence. Otherwise, I'll beat them every time I see them!" Xiao Yang declared domineeringly.
Upon hearing this, Chizuru and the guards felt as though they had been granted amnesty and fled in disgrace.
"Young Master, you were so imposing just now!"
Huangli rushed over excitedly, her pretty face flushed and her eyes sparkling with admiration.
"I merely dealt with a few wretches. It was nothing worth mentioning," Xiao Yang said indifferently.
"Young Master, you seem different from before, but I like the current Young Master even more!"
Huangli said shyly with a blush, her expression carrying the budding affection of a young girl.
"Huangli, find some Medicinal Material for Guard Zhao. I need to go out," Xiao Yang said.
"Where to?"
"Fourth Brother's residence!"
The Fourth Prince's residence.
"Your Highness, you must stand up for me!"
Chizuru rushed in and immediately went to complain to the Fourth Prince.
"Who is this ugly freak?"
The Fourth Prince, Xiao Chusheng, was stunned when he saw her.
"Your Highness, it's me, Chizuru!"
"Bullshit! My concubine is a first-rate Beauty. How could she possibly be a pig-headed thing like you?!" The Fourth Prince shoved her away.
"I ended up like this because Xiao Yang slapped me! And Guard Kato was killed by Xiao Yang too—his head was chopped off!" Chizuru wept bitterly.
"What? You're not lying to me, are you?"
Fourth Prince was shocked.
Kato was a fourth-grade martial artist with formidable strength, while his Ninth Brother was merely in the First Grade Body Tempering Realm. Their strength was worlds apart!
"Your Highness, Miss Chizuru isn't lying..."
"Who knows what despicable trick Xiao Yang used, but he actually killed Lord Kato with a single slash!"
"He was also incredibly arrogant. He has no regard for you at all! He said you're a barbarian from a foreign land, filthy scum with impure blood, and that he'd beat you up every time he saw you from now on!"
The guards also began lodging complaints, even exaggerating the story and slipping in their own spiteful embellishments.
"Damn it!"
Fourth Prince's face twisted with fury, his rage uncontrollable.
His mother came from East Pole Island, so his bloodline was impure. It had always been regarded as a taboo that no one was allowed to mention. Yet his Ninth Brother actually dared to...
"Hmph! Does Ninth Brother think that just because he married the Female God of Slaughter and gained a backer, he can do whatever he pleases in the royal residence?"
"Mobilize all my personal guards. I'm going to teach him a lesson!"
Fourth Prince gave the order in fury.
Suddenly, a thunderous shout rang out from outside.
"Fourth Brother, there's no need to make things so troublesome!"
"I'm here!!!"
The next moment, a figure strode into the residence, head held high and posture as upright as a dragon.
It was Xiao Yang.
Chizuru and the group of guards from earlier all retreated several steps in fright, while also feeling utterly incredulous. They had not expected Xiao Yang to dare come knocking on their door himself...
This was simply too outrageous!
At that moment, Xiao Yang's gaze swept across the room before finally settling on Fourth Prince, Xiao Chusheng.
Fourth Prince had inherited his mother's East Pole Island bloodline. Short and fat, even dressed in rich brocade robes, he looked like a monkey wearing a cap.
Using the [Break Delusion] divine ability of his Double Pupils, Xiao Yang secretly examined his weaknesses.
[Weakness 1: Lustful] [Weakness 2: Arrogant] [Weakness 3: Gluttony] [Weakness 4: Lazy] [Weakness 5: Greedy] [Weakness 100: Kidney deficiency, short and weak]
Xiao Yang was rendered somewhat speechless.
His Fourth Brother truly had no merits from any angle, yet so many flaws that even the system panel could barely list them all!
Still, he could be considered an alternative kind of "hexagonal warrior"!
All six sides were zero!
Xiao Yang suddenly did not even know which weakness he should use against him.
"Ninth Brother, was it you who killed my Guard Kato and beat my concubine Chizuru into a pig-headed mess?" Fourth Prince asked.
"That's right, it was me!" Xiao Yang answered proudly.
"You killed an innocent man indiscriminately. You've got some nerve!"
Fourth Prince immediately pinned a charge on him. "How about this... for the sake of brotherhood, I'll give you a chance to apologize and admit your mistake!"
"Apologize to my concubine Chizuru at once, then hand over the Kirin Golden Light Armor Father King gave you, as well as the Nine Revolutions Great Returning Pill Eldest Brother gave you, as compensation!"
"Then I'll be merciful and let the matter go!"
"Hahaha!"
Xiao Yang, however, laughed as though he had heard the funniest joke in the world, his laughter echoing in all directions.
"Ninth Brother, what are you laughing at?"
Fourth Prince was deeply displeased, as if he had been slighted.
"Fourth Brother, you've got it wrong! I didn't come here to apologize or make amends!" Xiao Yang declared proudly.
"Then what did you come here for?" Fourth Prince retorted.
"To punish you for your crimes!!!"
