"In my father's eyes, I am now just a good-for-nothing who only knows how to loaf around and wait to die."
"If I dare to displease Xue Qinghe now, my father will dare to grant me a fiefdom on the frontier and leave me to fend for myself."
The moment the wine glass shattered, the surrounding noblemen fell silent, and then the only sound in the luxurious private room was the avalanche of curses and complaints.
After Avalanche finished cursing, the red-haired nobleman next to him immediately brought over a glass of wine and whispered something to Avalanche.
“But Your Highness, your elder brother has arrested several nobles, including some who had influence in the court, which has affected the businesses of many families.”
The purple-haired nobleman sitting on the other side also said, "That's right, it's one thing to arrest them, but he even put some lowly people in positions of power. Do they even deserve it?"
After venting my emotions in the avalanche, I felt much better, finally releasing the pent-up feelings I'd been suppressing for the past two months.
Sipping an expensive bottle of fine wine, he leaned back lazily on the sofa and said casually:
"Don't worry, Xue Qinghe just wants to replace some of his own people with new ones. Things will calm down in a while. Tell your families to keep a low profile for a while and just don't get caught."
Seeing that Xue Beng had said this, the others stopped talking about it.
Just then, the red-haired nobleman said to Avalanche, "Your Highness, I found a good item these past two days and saved it for you. You can take it back with you later."
Upon hearing this, Xue Beng's eyes lit up, and he immediately perked up.
As the only biological child of Emperor Xueye, he must have inherited this trait.
Although under Prince Xuexing's tutelage, he adopted the persona of a spoiled brat, it was simply a natural performance.
He could show his weakness and incompetence in front of his older brother, and he could also do whatever he wanted openly.
"Oh, what a nice item! Bring it out so I can see."
Upon hearing this, the red-haired nobleman smiled and clapped his hands toward the door.
Immediately someone opened the door.
A scantily clad, pitiful-looking catwoman trembled as she entered the room amidst the greedy gazes of the crowd.
Upon seeing the stunning beauty before him, Xue Beng's eyes gleamed with a vibrant green light, and he kept exclaiming "Good, good, good!"
After downing his glass of red wine in one gulp, Xue Beng said to the people around him, "In that case, I won't stay here any longer. Have fun, everyone."
The red-haired youth smiled and nodded, leading the group to see the avalanche off.
Amidst the cheers of the crowd, Avalanche, with Catwoman in his arms and two guards, walked out of the private room and out of the club's lobby.
Just as Xue Beng, slightly drunk, walked toward the carriage parked in the back street, a figure reeking of alcohol grabbed his shoulder.
"Hey buddy, how much for your girl? Name your price, how about I get her? Hiccup!"
A burly, middle-aged man, as strong as a city wall, spoke to Xue Beng with hazy eyes and a strong smell of alcohol.
But before Xue Beng could speak, the two guards beside him immediately reprimanded the man.
"Do you know who you're holding? Let go of me right now!"
One of the two middle-aged guards tried to raise his arm, while the other shoved the burly man's body.
The man grew impatient with the two guards' rude actions, and with his right hand holding the wine jug, he slapped the guard who was pushing him aside.
And the left hand that was holding onto the avalanche also began to exert force, perhaps misjudging its own strength.
With a soft cracking sound, the avalanche suddenly erupted, letting out a shrill scream like a pig being hit.
"Ouch, my arm! Kill him!"
The two guards were dumbfounded when they saw this scene. They never expected that anyone in Tiandou City would dare to attack a prince.
Upon hearing the order to avalanche, the guards immediately activated their martial spirits.
"Possessed by a blue wolf!" "Possessed by a gray leopard!"
Three soul rings, one white and two yellow, swirled around the two of them.
Although it's not the optimal soul ring combination, having two Soul Masters as guards is definitely worthy of Xue Beng's status as a prince.
After the two guards possessed their martial spirits, they immediately activated their amplification soul skills, and their thick beast claws immediately grabbed at the burly man's body.
Upon seeing this, the man, whose senses were numbed by alcohol, had no time to dodge and could only instinctively use his arms to protect his face.
brush--
The two men's inch-long claws left several bloody, flesh-puffed wounds on the man's body, instantly staining his clothes red with blood.
The intense pain caused the already intoxicated man to instantly lose his senses.
"You're courting death! Martial Soul Possession!"
As the man roared, spirit rings rose from his feet, and the black hair all over his body grew several inches longer. His already burly body swelled up again the moment the spirit was attached to him.
Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black!
Soul King!
The aura of a Soul King swept across the small street, causing the two who were about to attack to freeze in place, their initial anger instantly cooling down.
But the man's actions did not stop; his scarlet eyes were fixed on the guards who were attacking him.
The thick arms, as thick as thighs, gleamed with a dark, soul-like light and slammed straight toward the guard's chest.
Without a second thought, the two guards turned and ran outside.
Chapter 73 Death from an Avalanche
The enemy before them was far too powerful, far beyond their ability to contend with.
But once you get out of this street, you can call for help from the outside world. Given the background of Brilliant Avenue, there is a Soul Saint in charge here.
But this was a furious attack from a Soul King, how could two mere Soul Venerables possibly dodge it?
The pitch-black soul light, carrying an unstoppable air cannon, directly blasted into the two guards.
The two were instantly reduced to a shower of bloody, fleshy pieces.
Upon seeing the scene before him, the burly man grinned menacingly, and the heavy smell of alcohol emanating from him once again filled the surroundings.
After finishing, he turned to look at Avalanche and Catwoman, who were sitting on the ground.
"I was going to just give you some money and call it quits, but since you've pulled this stunt, consider this catwoman my apology, hiccup!"
Although the man's mind wasn't clear, he still knew who was important and who wasn't.
Given his background, all he needs to do is kill two guards and then offer an apology.
But if we kill this young master from some unknown family, it will cause a big problem, and the follow-up will be very troublesome.
The avalanche stopped howling and stared blankly at the scene of blood and flesh scattered before it.
He couldn't understand why anyone in Tiandou City would dare to act wildly in front of him. Were there people on Brilliant Street who didn't recognize him?
The man ignored whether the avalanche agreed or not, and swayed as he walked towards the catwoman.
Just then, a whooshing sound came from beside the man's ear, and a sense of crisis swept over him like a tsunami.
The man's black hair stood on end, and his thick, thigh-like arms instinctively lashed out in the direction from which the attack was coming.
But the sensation of the fist did not produce the feeling of colliding with an attack; instead, the sensation was like the soft flesh and blood of the human body.
The man looked back with some confusion.
The avalanche's corpse was blasted into the sky by its own force, its chest turning into a soft, fleshy mess.
With a loud thud, the avalanche's corpse crashed heavily to the ground not far away, its unseeing eyes staring fixedly at the bewildered man.
At that moment, the brief aftershocks of the battle also attracted the Soul Saint powerhouses stationed on Brilliant Street.
Brilliant Avenue is an upscale area, and like other major battle arenas, it prohibits anyone from using force in public places.
After all, the people coming and going here are all rich and powerful. If someone were to hurt or bump into you, it would be very troublesome to deal with, even with the background of Brilliant Avenue.
Therefore, the Soul Saint stationed here immediately set off upon sensing the fluctuations of Soul King-level Soul Power.
However, the area of Brilliant Street is extremely large, and even with the speed of a Soul Saint, it would be difficult to arrive at the scene immediately.
As soon as they arrived, they saw the thug, who resembled a gorilla after being possessed by a martial spirit. He directly punched Xue Beng into the sky, killing him on the spot with his eyes wide open.
Seeing this scene before them, the Soul Saint experts who had rushed over were chilled to the bone, finding it hard to believe what was happening.
He has been stationed on Huihuang Avenue in shifts for more than ten years, and he knows all the important people with some status.
The person flying in the sky could be recognized simply by their magnificent royal attire, without even seeing their face.
The fourth prince avalanche!
After all, there's no one else but Avalanche who could be so young as to appear on Glorious Street.
Upon recognizing who the attacked person was, the Soul Saint who arrived was trembling.
The Avalanche Prince was beaten to death on the spot on Glorious Street while he was stationed there. Even a Soul Saint like himself couldn't cover this up!
Just as the Soul Saint arrived, the burly man's drunken stupor finally subsided a little.
But it was this very point that made the burly man realize he might have gotten into trouble.
Now, he couldn't even care about the catwoman in front of him anymore. He mustered all his soul power and started running towards the depths of the deserted street.
But under the watchful eye of a Soul Saint, how could a mere Soul King possibly escape?
Before the burly man could run more than a few steps, the Soul Saint was already in front of him.
A massive phantom of a yellow ox appeared behind the Soul Saint in front of him.
As the spirit rings on his body flashed, a large hand with terrifying force pressed the burly man to the ground, causing the bluestone ground within three meters to cave in.
The Yellow Ox Soul Saint spoke with chilling murderous intent to the disheveled giant beneath him:
"Run? If you get away today, I'll lose my head. You dare to fight on Brilliant Street and even try to kill a prince. You really don't know what's good for you!"
However, the big man was no longer able to answer his question. Under the influence of the high concentration of alcohol and the terrifying blow from the Soul Saint, he had already passed out.
Tread-
At this moment, the guards of Glorious Street also arrived one after another. Seeing the avalanche corpses and the ground covered in blood and flesh, they were all stunned, just like the Soul Saint before them.
However, the captain of the guard was much stronger than the team members. After a moment of stunned silence, he quickly walked up to the Yellow Ox Soul Saint.
But before the captain could even speak, Huang Niu Hun Sheng slapped him across the face.
