Stripped Naked and Hung on the City Wall to Bake in the Sun—Desperate Yu Xiaogang: "Sob, sob! No, don't!"

Qian Xunye suddenly burst into loud laughter. "Hahaha! The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan? That pathetic Blue Lightning Clan? If they dare come, then we'll wipe them out!!"

"What! Arrogant! Too arrogant! This is... what outrageous arrogance!!"

Yu Xiaogang was dumbfounded, and utterly despairing.

He could tell that there was not a trace of fear toward the Blue Lightning Clan in Qian Xunye's demeanor.

"Heh, let's go." Qian Xunye sneered.

Then he reached out, grabbed Yu Xiaogang by the head, and dragged him toward the academy gates like a dead dog.

"No! Don't! I'm begging you! Please let me go!" Yu Xiaogang pleaded desperately.

But at that moment, an angry shout came from afar.

"Xiaogang!"

The newcomer was none other than the principal of Notting Academy, a three-ring Soul Elder.

Yu Xiaogang looked as though he had seen his savior and shouted, "Principal Locke, save me... save meee!"

"You! Let go of Grandmaster!!"

The Notting Academy principal immediately unleashed his wolf-type beast martial soul and lunged in with a ferocious claw.

Qian Xunye glanced at him. "Xiaoxue, take him out in one move."

Qian Renxue rolled her fists, finally releasing her Six-Winged Angel martial soul, which had been disguised in another form. Yellow, yellow, purple, black—four soul rings appeared beneath her feet for the first time.

"What! A four-ring Soul Ancestor at such a young age!"

"Wait! A ten-thousand-year fourth soul ring!!"

"Heavens! What kind of monster is this?!"

All the students and teachers watching were stunned.

Yu Xiaogang was equally dumbstruck. "?????? A ten-thousand-year fourth ring? Impossible! Absolutely impossible! According to my theory on the limits of soul ring absorption, the limit for the fourth ring is only five thousand years!"

"Heh." Qian Renxue smiled confidently and met him with a punch.

Bang!

Splat~

The principal of Notting Academy spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot, his body sent flying in an instant.

One punch had severely wounded him, and he crashed to the ground!

"Instantly defeated! The principal was instantly defeated with one punch!!"

Cries of shock rang out endlessly.

Yu Xiaogang panicked. "Principal Locke, hurry and find City Lord Xiao! Send someone to Soto City to find my friend Flander too—tell him to come save me!!"

Yu Xiaogang's voice echoed throughout the academy. Then, before the eyes of hundreds of students and teachers, Qian Xunye dragged him out of the academy and onto the street.

"Damn! Look! Isn't that Grandmaster Yu!? Why were his legs broken? Why is he being dragged around?!"

"Holy shit! That's way too miserable!"

A crowd of passersby lined both sides of the city street, pointing at the miserable Yu Xiaogang and talking among themselves.

Yu Xiaogang had lost every shred of dignity and was overwhelmed by despair.

Looking at the crowd around him pointing and whispering, Yu Xiaogang could no longer endure it.

As though driven mad by the humiliation, he screamed like a rabid dog, "Let me go! Let me go! Beast! You beasts!"

"Too noisy!"

Slap!

Qian Xunye slapped Yu Xiaogang's mouth to pieces, making it impossible for him to make a sound again.

More and more citizens gathered along the main road leading to the city gates.

Under the gaze of nearly the entire city, Yu Xiaogang was dragged all the way toward the gates.

His broken leg was still bleeding.

The blood left a long trail along the main road.

Before long, Qian Xunye finally dragged Yu Xiaogang beneath the gates of Notting City.

At that moment—

City Lord Xiao of Notting City arrived with several hundred soldiers and surrounded them.

"Sir, could you give me, the lord of Notting City, some face and release Yu Xiaogang?" City Lord Xiao stepped out from the crowd and spoke sternly to Qian Xunye.

"A mere city lord of Notting thinks he has the right to ask me for face? What the hell are you?" Qian Xunye gave him no face at all.

Forget the lord of some tiny city.

Even if Emperor Xue Ye of Heaven Dou had come today, it would have made no difference.

City Lord Xiao's expression darkened slightly. He said in a low voice, "If you refuse to release Yu Xiaogang, then I will have no choice but to apprehend you according to the law."

"The law? Hehehe, with this handful of men you brought?" Qian Xunye shook his head and smiled, slowly raising his hand. "Kneel!"

Boom!

"Ahhh!~"

With a slight wave of his hand, terrifying soul pressure instantly forced City Lord Xiao and several hundred soldiers to crash down onto their knees.

City Lord Xiao's knees even smashed open and bled.

They could not breathe!

In that instant, the terror of death descended upon every one of them.

"How can this be! I'm a level 38 Soul Elder, yet his soul pressure has suppressed me so thoroughly that I can't move at all! Just what kind of powerhouse is this man?"

City Lord Xiao was terrified, truly afraid now.

He knew Yu Xiaogang, but they were not close. He had only come to protect him out of consideration for the principal of Notting Academy.

But he would not throw away his life for such a trivial favor.

City Lord Xiao completely caved in and hurriedly begged for mercy. "Spare my life, my lord! I failed to recognize your greatness. Please calm your anger!"

"If you don't want to die, then follow my orders from now on."

City Lord Xiao was drenched in sweat and terrified beyond measure. "Yes! Yes! Whatever orders you have, my lord, I will carry them out!"

Qian Xunye withdrew his soul pressure. "Have your men strip Yu Xiaogang naked. Just make sure that disgusting little worm of his isn't exposed and harming the city's appearance. Then hang him from the city wall and let him bake in the sun for ten days!"

"For those ten days, have your city's patrol soldiers take turns guarding him. Just make sure he doesn't die."

"Th-this..." City Lord Xiao hesitated, but he did not dare disobey. "Yes!"

"Hurry! Strip Yu Xiaogang and hang him from the city wall!"

"Wuwuwuwu~ No! Nooo!" Yu Xiaogang cried out in despair.

Very soon, Yu Xiaogang was stripped of his clothes and trousers, leaving only a pair of underwear. The soldiers took him up, tied his hands and feet, and suspended him by ropes from the scorching city wall, which had been heated by the sun.

It was the height of summer, with temperatures above thirty degrees Celsius.

Yu Xiaogang, bound hand and foot and hung from the city wall, was suffering worse than death.

For the next ten days, Qian Xunye would remain here around the clock.

He had someone bring over a reclining chair.

He leaned back in the shade of the city wall.

Two beautiful maids dressed in maid uniforms and black stockings stood on either side of him. They had been specially sent by City Lord Xiao to serve Qian Xunye.

One of the maids slightly raised her voluptuous backside as she crouched before Qian Xunye and massaged his legs.

The other stood behind him, massaging his shoulders and occasionally plucking a grape to feed him.

Qian Xunye watched over the city wall with a look of pure enjoyment.

Seeing this, Yu Xiaogang felt like dying. "You bastard! Ahhh!~"

"Xiaoxue, stay in Notting City and cultivate for the next few days. I alone will guard this place."

"Alright, Uncle, then I'll go have a look around the city first."

"Mhm. Go on."

After Qian Renxue left, Qian Xunye immediately transmitted his voice to Ghost Douluo. "Elder Gui Mei, immediately spread the news that Yu Xiaogang has been hung from the Notting City wall. The faster, the better. I want everyone to know."

"Yes! I'll handle it right away."

Ghost Douluo, hidden in the shadows, swiftly departed.

Everything is ready now; all that's missing is the final push. Bibi Dong, I'm quite curious whether you'll risk coming out for this piece of trash. Qian Xunye sneered inwardly, then said to the miserable Yu Xiaogang, "Yu Xiaogang, if no one comes to save you after ten days, then your time to die will have come."
