The Death of Xue Beng! Ozka: Want to Blood Wash Heaven Dou? Count Me In!

At the same time.

At the Crown Prince Mansion, the moment Feng Xiaodi, Ozka, Yu Tianshu, and Hu Lieni stepped out of Dugu Manor, Qian Renxue received the report!

To monitor Feng Xiaodi and his group, Qian Renxue had mobilized three hundred soul masters from Martial Soul Hall! Each soul master was assigned to watch for only one minute at a time, ensuring they would never be discovered!

As fragmented pieces of information were relayed back, Qian Renxue was still puzzled as to why these people would buy so much Whale Rubber when Snake Lance Douluo suddenly appeared, exclaiming, "This is bad! Xue Beng has run into that powerful woman!"

"What!" Qian Renxue was so shocked she jumped up from her seat, hurriedly asking, "He didn't go and court death, did he?"

Snake Lance Douluo's mouth twitched, and he asked helplessly, "Should we intervene? Otherwise, Xue Beng might... they likely won't show any mercy!"

Qian Renxue took two quick steps, then suddenly paused, frowning as she said, "Even if we go, what good would it do? Would they give this seat any face?"

Snake Lance Douluo: "..."

"But are we just going to watch Xue Beng throw his life away? Emperor Xueye's suspicion and dissatisfaction toward you, Young Mistress, are already growing deeper! If Xue Beng dies now... it won't be favorable for our control of the imperial court!"

Hearing this, Qian Renxue took a deep breath and said, "Send someone to notify Emperor Xueye immediately! Whatever happens after that has nothing to do with us! Regardless, Xue Beng won't be dying by our hands! Besides, who says that powerful woman will kill Xue Beng? Perhaps she will just teach him a lesson."

Just a lesson? Snake Lance Douluo found that hard to believe.

"You! You! You dare to hurt me?"

On the street, Xue Beng clutched his mangled, twisted, and deformed wrist, staring at Hu Lieni in disbelief, gritting his teeth against the pain as he interrogated her.

Hu Lieni glanced at Xue Beng's wrist and said, "So, is that all you can do—talk nonsense?"

"Someone! Kill her for me! No! Don't kill her! Cripple her soul power, I want to drag her back! I'll torture her every single day! I'll treat her so well that she'll beg for death, but won't be able to..."

Upon hearing this, the guards approached with cruel smiles on their faces.

Puchi~ Puchi~

Hu Lieni killed two of Xue Beng's guards with a single strike; blood sprayed from their necks, and the cruel smiles on their faces transformed into expressions of agony and resentment!

Why would anyone dare to kill the Fourth Prince's guards? They were unwilling to die just like this!

Xue Beng's words also came to an abrupt halt; he subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and a sense of terror instantly gripped his heart.

"W-w-what are you doing?"

Hu Lieni asked, "I heard just now that half a month ago, you forcibly abducted a common woman to your mansion? And then tortured her to death?"

The muscles at the corners of Xue Beng's eyes twitched; he suppressed his fear, his throat bobbing, but he did not speak.

Hu Lieni continued to ask, "Is this woman also someone you snatched away?"

At this moment, the Wooden Hairpin Woman suddenly knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly as she begged, "I beg you, Lord Soul Master, please save me! I am a villager from a village near Tiandou City. My sister came to Tiandou City three months ago and never returned. I came to the city to find her, and later heard she had been snatched into the Fourth Prince's mansion. I wanted to rescue her, but... but..."

But after Xue Beng saw her appearance, she was about to be snatched away as well!

"I beg Lord Soul Master to seek justice for us sisters! I am willing to be your slave and servant to repay you!"

"Is that so?" Hu Lieni looked at Xue Beng.

Xue Beng was emotionally agitated, shouting with a fierce expression that masked his inner cowardice, "So what if I snatched them? I am the dignified Fourth Prince of the Tiandou Empire! My status is incomparably noble! It is their honor to be noticed by me, these lowly peasants!"

Hu Lieni frowned and said, "And then? You killed them too?"

"They're just cheap lives! If they die, they die! If they want to blame someone, they should blame themselves for daring to resist. It's not like I sold them to a brothel..."

"Shh~"

Hu Lieni made a shushing sound, interrupting Xue Beng, and walked toward him step by step, speaking slowly, "No need to say more."

"Gulp~ W-w-what are you doing? I warn you, I am the Fourth Prince of the Tiandou Empire! Do you dare to kill me?" Xue Beng's speech began to stutter.

BOOM!

Hu Lieni instantly erupted with terrifying soul power fluctuations, pinning Xue Beng directly to the ground, unable to move!

Following that, Hu Lieni used the tip of her sword to slowly, bit by bit, approach Xue Beng's neck, asking, "Do you see if I dare or not?"

"No... no! I am the Fourth Prince! I am the Fourth Prince! The Fourth Prince of the Tiandou Empire! Ah~!" Xue Beng was filled with terror, sweat beading on his forehead. The blade cut through the skin of his neck, then through the muscle, sinking in bit by bit... yet Xue Beng was suppressed by the thick soul power and could not move an inch!

"Hm? Scared yourself into wetting your pants already?"

Xue Beng's trousers were soaked with a large patch of urine. Hu Lieni looked at him with utter disgust and said, "I'm done playing! Since the evidence is conclusive, I sentence you to death!"

"No! Don't! I'm not a debauched wastrel! I was just pretending!"

Whether Xue Beng was pretending or not, Hu Lieni did not care, because regardless, the facts remained: he had forcibly abducted common women and tortured them to death!

Puchi~

The longsword slashed across in an instant, blood spraying three meters away! Xue Beng let out a gurgle~ gurgle~ sound as blood bubbled from his throat. He held on for ten seconds before his body collapsed limply to the ground.

In an instant!

The entire street fell into a deathly silence; no one dared to even breathe loudly!

"The... the Fourth Prince Xue Beng... he's dead!"

BOOM~ This sentence was like a deep-sea depth charge, blowing the street into chaos! The crowd scattered in a panic!

Only the Wooden Hairpin Woman and the old woman who had previously claimed her daughter-in-law was snatched remained, urging her, "Lord Soul Master, you must leave quickly! You killed the Fourth Prince; the Tiandou Empire will not let you go!"

"Lord Soul Master, I am willing to be your servant for the rest of my life! Let us flee immediately! The Tiandou Empire's army will be here soon!"

"Yes, Lord Soul Master, you must run! Run as far as you can!"

"You all should leave quickly too, lest you be implicated by me. I will be departing shortly."

"Yes, yes, yes!" The old woman nodded repeatedly and scurried toward the mouth of the alley.

"Why aren't you leaving?" Hu Lieni looked at the young Wooden Hairpin Woman.

The Wooden Hairpin Woman shook her head firmly. "You stood up for my sister and me; you are our benefactor! I will never flee alone! Besides, I have already promised to be your servant for life!"

"Uh..." Hu Lieni sighed inwardly and asked, "Do you know where the Fourth Prince Mansion is? Perhaps your sister is not yet dead; let us go together and rescue her."

"This..." The Wooden Hairpin Woman hesitated for a moment before asking, "Benefactor, can you... can you really escape unscathed? Once you enter the Fourth Prince Mansion, it will not be so easy to get out! My sister and I must not drag you down!"

"I can escape, rest assured!"

The Wooden Hairpin Woman struggled for a few seconds, then said with her whole body tensed, "Benefactor, follow me!"

Hu Lieni smiled. "You point the way, and I will carry you; it will be much faster!"

Five minutes later, news of Xue Beng's death reached the imperial palace. Emperor Xueye was furious, and the soul master army set out, determined to suppress the culprit!

By this time, Hu Lieni had already killed dozens of guards at the Fourth Prince Mansion, released seven imprisoned women, and discovered over twenty corpses in the underground and lakebed of the back garden!

"Haa..."

"Nobles! The Tiandou Empire! They are all the cancer of this world! The expedition of the Immortal Court brooks no delay!!"

Hu Lieni let out a long, deep breath, her clenched fists turning white, devoid of any blood color.

"Benefactor!"

The Wooden Hairpin Woman, supporting a woman whose clothes were stained red with blood, shouted, "Benefactor, please leave quickly! We will not drag you down!"

Hu Lieni felt deeply moved and said, "I will see you all safely out of Tiandou City!"

With that, she used her soul power to lift all nine of them into the air, flying directly toward the outskirts of Tiandou City.

Half an hour later.

Watching Hu Lieni fly away again, the Wooden Hairpin Woman knelt down with her sister! The other six women followed suit, kowtowing heavily.

The Wooden Hairpin Woman raised her head and said to the group, "Everyone, we are far from Tiandou City now; you are safe. Go home! Or find a place to hide! From this day forward, never go near Tiandou City again!"

On the other side.

Hu Lieni found a scenic spot to bury the twenty-odd corpses of the young girls before heading back.

As soon as she returned to Dugu Manor, Hu Lieni saw Dugu Bo wearing a bitter smile.

"Sigh~" Dugu Bo sighed helplessly, saying nothing.

What was there to say?

He had thought that castrating Ning Fengzhi was a massive disaster, only for Yu Tianshu to kick Dai Mubai to death! Dugu Bo had adjusted his mindset, raising his threshold for acceptance, believing Dai Mubai's death was the limit of the disaster. And yet? Hu Lieni had publicly killed the Fourth Prince, Xue Beng! And she had even tortured him before he died... scaring the man so badly he soiled himself.

Qian Pingchuan asked, "Senior Sister, why were you so impulsive?"

Hu Lieni was a disciple of Bibi Xi, so it was natural for Qian Pingchuan to call her Senior Sister.

Hu Lieni remained expressionless, explaining with a heavy heart, "I dug up over twenty corpses of young girls at the Fourth Prince Mansion! And some of the bodies were mutilated..."

"What? He tortured young girls to death?"

"Yes." Hu Lieni nodded, not wanting to say more.

Beside them, Yu Tianshu raged, "Damn it! What a beast! Why do I feel like the more I learn about this world, the less I can sit still?"

Ozka asked, "Do you have the urge to wash the Tiandou Empire in blood? Count me in!"

Feng Xiaodi also spoke up, "In the Douluo World No. 1, the Tiandou Empire, the nobles, and the soul masters are not bound by law! Senior Dugu should be well aware of this."

Dugu Bo, being singled out, said helplessly, "In our world, nobles and soul masters wield absolute power. It is common for them to start a massacre or oppress commoners over a single disagreement! No law will sanction them, and in fact... some nobles will even capture commoners to use as slaves! If these slaves are rescued, the imperial army will step in to protect the nobles, hunt down the slaves, and even execute the commoners who dared to defy the nobility!"
