Teaching Xue Beng a Lesson

A trio appeared on the streets of Martial Soul City.

As for why there were only three?

Qiangu Yichen disliked overly boisterous places, so he had returned home.

Kuang Zhan had been dragged away by his underlings to back them up.

When Lin Huai and Tian Yue left Martial Soul Hall, Scott happened to appear, so they joined together.

After passing a few shops, Lin Huai felt a bit bored.

As a transmigrator who had frequented large supermarkets in his past life, the only thing supporting him to continue browsing these small stalls and shops was the hope of finding a hidden treasure.

"Scott, how are your Soul Tool studies coming along?"

Seeing Lin Huai ask, Scott replied in a respectful tone:

"Thank you for your concern, Ancestor. I am currently still practicing the creation of first-grade Soul Tools."

"Teacher Spike saw that I had a modicum of talent and was so passionate about Soul Tools, so he took me in as his disciple."

Lin Huai was somewhat surprised; it seemed he was not the same person after all.

The Scott in that world could not craft mechs; he had simply been fond of them.

He had not expected this Scott to actually possess talent for Soul Tools.

"Not bad. To be taken as a disciple by a ninth-grade Soul Master, you must keep up the hard work!"

Scott hurriedly and respectfully agreed.

On the main street, someone finally recognized that Lin Huai was the Holy Son.

"Look, it's His Highness the Holy Son!"

Although these people often saw the Pope, Lin Huai was the youngest Holy Son.

Many people stopped to look at the three of them.

Yet no one stepped forward; they all stood to the side quite orderly, craning their necks to watch.

"Good afternoon, Your Highness the Holy Son!"

Some of the bolder ones greeted Lin Huai directly.

Thinking of scenes involving leaders from his past life, Lin Huai also waved in acknowledgment:

"Good afternoon to you, too."

The passersby on the scene were instantly stirred into a frenzy.

They had not expected the dignified Holy Son to actually respond to them.

"Hello, Your Highness the Holy Son!"

"Is there anything the Holy Son needs to buy?"

Lin Huai waved and greeted them one by one, thinking to himself, This feels great!

Suddenly, a male voice reached Lin Huai's ears.

"The Holy Son is truly adorable!"

The smile on his face stiffened.

He had not expected to actually run into someone like this.

"Alright, everyone, go back to your business. Do not disrupt the order of the street!"

The three of them continued to weave through the various shops and stalls.

When the three stopped in front of a small accessory stall, they heard an arrogant voice ring out.

"Yo, isn't this our little Holy Son?"

The newcomer deliberately emphasized the word "little."

A boy of twelve or thirteen years old in fine robes walked over, his nose seemingly pointed toward the sky.

Lin Huai, however, felt quite excited inside.

Is it finally time?

The moment for the novel protagonist to act cool and slap faces.

The straightforward Tian Yue immediately cursed out loud:

"What kind of bird thing are you, daring to come and provoke us?"

The boy gave a disdainful laugh and looked at the elderly man in fine robes beside him.

"Uncle Wang, look, truly a boorish martial artist!"

"Listen well, little girl, I am the Fourth Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire—Xue Beng!"

"If you abandon the Holy Son beside you and become my handmaiden, I can grant you endless wealth and power!"

Xue Beng, whether out of envy for how deeply Lin Huai had won the hearts of the people or simply to maintain his persona as a dissolute playboy, actually dared to harass Tian Yue!

Lin Huai recalled at this moment that the Heaven Dou Empire had indeed dispatched both Xue Xing and Xue Beng.

Tian Yue smiled and walked toward Xue Beng.

Lin Huai naturally knew what she intended to do and looked at Scott.

"Scott, go and assist Sister Yue."

Tian Yue slammed a fist directly into Xue Beng's face, followed by a flurry of kicks and punches.

The guards nearby, finally snapping out of their stupor, hurriedly released their Martial Souls.

Scott immediately unleashed his Avatar of the Martial Soul, suppressing all these guards, whose strength peaked at the Soul King level.

Seeing his nephew being bullied, Xue Xing hurriedly threatened:

"Lin Huai! Do you intend to incite a war between Heaven Dou and Martial Soul Hall?"

"Our Heaven Dou Empire possesses a million brave soldiers!"

"If you make her stop immediately and offer us a proper apology, I can let bygones be bygones!"

Tian Yue clapped her hands and gave Xue Beng one final kick.

"That felt good! You still want this young lady to be your handmaiden?"

Lin Huai looked at Xue Xing with a smile on his face.

"Prince Xue Xing, is it? Have you gone so long without witnessing the power of a Title Douluo that you think the gap between Title Douluos is the same as that between Soul Douluos?"

"Do you believe that if you dare to prepare for war, I could have every single member of your royal family meeting their late emperor by that very night?"

Lin Huai then pointed at Tian Yue.

"Do you know who she is?"

"Her grandfather is the ninety-eighth-ranked Golden Crocodile Douluo!"

"Her grandfather alone could turn your imperial palace into ruins overnight."

It was Lin Huai's turn to look at the two with utter disdain.

"Frogs at the bottom of a well daring to speak of the vastness of the sky, tiny ants attempting to shake a giant tree?"

He nudged Xue Beng with his foot again.

He paid no mind to Xue Xing's face, which had turned black with rage.

"When you go back, whether you embellish the story or tell the truth, it matters not."

"Tell Xue Ye, and see if he dares to mobilize his troops!"

"Let's go. Encountering these two bedbugs has ruined my mood."

Lin Huai signaled to Tian Yue and Scott, and the three turned to leave.

Xue Beng stood up shakily, his expression venomous.

"Uncle Wang, I must make them pay the price!"

"When we return, we must make Father mobilize the army to flatten Martial Soul City!"

"When that time comes, I will make that little bitch beg to be my handmaiden, and I will humiliate them thoroughly!"

Xue Xing's expression was equally grim.

"Shut up, this is still their territory!"

"We leave tomorrow!"

"I will make them know the price of offending me!"

"That's how it happened, Sister Xiao Xue, you must help me get revenge!"

Tian Yue hugged the now-recovered Qian Renxue, acting spoiled.

Cold light flickered in Qian Renxue's eyes.

She had originally intended to ignore these two idiots, but since they had delivered themselves to her doorstep, she would deal with them once and for all!

"Rest assured, Sister will help you get your revenge very soon."

Lin Huai, however, wanted to see how these two would behave once they fell from heaven into hell.

"Sister Xiao Xue, if possible, spare their lives."

"But remember to ensure they cannot interfere with your plans."

Qian Renxue couldn't grasp Lin Huai's line of thinking for a moment.

He was the one who urged her to be ruthless, yet now he wanted to spare their lives?

Seeing the confusion on Qian Renxue's face, Lin Huai explained:

"It means rendering them unable to produce offspring, while ensuring the news spreads."

"Then, spare their lives to showcase your benevolence."

"Of course, they must be kept from leaving Tiandou City, and stripped of all power."

The two young women blushed, secretly spitting in disdain.

The schemes of a scholar are truly wicked.

After some discussion, Qian Renxue departed the Worship Hall with the brothers Thousand Jun and Falling Devil.

Lin Huai suddenly conceived a brilliant plan and whispered away with the several elders.

Golden Crocodile nodded in agreement, then went to inform Bibi Dong.

Meanwhile, At the hotel where the Heaven Dou Empire envoys were staying.

Xue Xing and Xue Beng complained incessantly to Xue Qinghe, embellishing their account of what happened that afternoon.

They attempted to draw Xue Qinghe into their camp, urging him to join them in petitioning Xue Ye to mobilize troops against Martial Soul Hall.

Qian Renxue wore a look of indignation, but inwardly, she sneered.

Keep jumping around while you can.

I'll deal with you as soon as I get back!
