Chapter 81: Entering the Great Xia Territory, You Must Abide by Its Rules
Fuck!
The people around who heard Qin Bei’s words now felt quite bewildered.
Just a moment ago, they thought he was a polite young man.
How did he suddenly turn into a big bad wolf?
However, everyone prayed in their hearts that Qin Bei wouldn’t take action.
Because this is the capital of Great Xia!
You can’t hurt people here!
…
“Damn! Who are you? Gonna kill me? Hahahaha!”
At the end of his speech, Guang Quan couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
“You’re just a foundation-building cultivator, and you dare to threaten to kill me? Are all the folks from Great Xia this arrogant? No wonder, the upper beam isn’t straight, and the lower beam is crooked!”
Guang Quan’s smile instantly vanished.
He glared at Qin Bei with a chilling expression.
The next moment, he made his move.
A flying sword shot out, aimed directly at Qin Bei’s neck.
He came from the Ancient Beast Nation and intended to kill today to establish his reputation!
“Humph!”
Qin Bei snorted coldly.
He didn’t even lift a finger; he just shot a glance at Guang Quan.
In the next moment, the flying sword controlled by Guang Quan hovered in mid-air.
Then it plummeted to the ground.
When everyone looked at Guang Quan again, he had turned into an ice sculpture.
Even with the sun shining brightly, everyone felt a twinge of chill.
“Stop!”
Just as Qin Bei was about to shatter the ice sculpture of Guang Quan, an angry voice rang out.
Everyone turned to see where the voice came from.
A ferocious-looking saber-tooth beast charged into the crowd.
The surrounding spectators were forced aside by its domineering presence, having no choice but to yield.
On the back of the saber-tooth beast sat a young man in his twenties.
It was this man who shouted for them to stop.
“Who the hell is this reckless young man? How dare he behave like this in the capital?”
“I bet he’s just like these country bumpkins from the Ancient Beast Nation, thinking this is one of their shabby places and can do whatever they please.”
“Looks like this bunch is finished. Even if the guy in front doesn’t win, the patrol won’t let them off.”
“Sigh~ Still young and impulsive!”
…
Qin Bei frowned when he saw who was coming.
This group of people is quite the spectacle.
It’s one thing to speak ill of Great Xia in the capital.
It’s another to dare to raise a hand.
But this guy is charging in riding his mount?
“Sir, I am Gu Chuan, the crown prince of the Ancient Beast Nation! This man is my war servant, I kindly ask you to let him go.”
Gu Chuan didn’t dismount, looking down at Qin Bei as he spoke.
“Whoever you are, this is not a playground for people from your Ancient Beast Nation!”
Qin Bei replied coolly.
“Your words are a bit harsh, my war servant simply stated the truth. Is it that in such a large dynasty like Great Xia, one is not allowed to say the truth?”
Gu Chuan sneered.
“The truth? Alright! I’ll show you what truth is!”
“In your little Ancient Beast Nation, there are only cultivators in the capital, no mortals. Do you know why?”
Qin Bei squinted and questioned.
“That’s naturally because everyone in my Ancient Beast Nation has formidable cultivation, especially those who visit the capital,” Gu Chuan boasted.
“Bullshit! It’s because your emperor is incompetent! Mortals don’t dare stay in the capital, because they might be killed by cultivators at any moment. Selling goods on the street? Forget it!”
“Because your emperor is useless, he can’t intimidate powerful rogue cultivators, so mortals scare and hide away in the countryside, not even daring to go to bigger cities for business!”
“And within Great Xia’s territory, all cultivators must not harm mortals. If they defy this order, their three souls will scatter and their seven spirits will be imprisoned! No exceptions!”
“In the capital of Great Xia, fighting is banned! Riding monsters to travel swiftly is prohibited! Thus, there are many outstanding mortals in the capital of Great Xia, their business acumen is no less than any cultivator!”
“And all of this is due to the impressive prestige of our Great Xia emperor, which is sufficient to intimidate all villains!”
“Once you step foot into Great Xia territory, you must follow Great Xia’s rules!”
“Do you understand?”
…
“Good!!!”
Clap clap clap!
As soon as Qin Bei finished speaking, cheers and applause erupted around him.
This impassioned speech truly won the approval of those nearby.
Why do the people of Great Xia continuously praise the Emperor Xia?
It’s because the current Emperor Xia has extraordinary means, which are always reserved for enemies.
He is very caring towards the people within his nation, whether they are cultivators or mortals.
Other than Great Xia, no other dynasty has dared to declare that cultivators must not take action against mortals.
Thus, beyond Great Xia, many cultivators enslave mortals.
Even dynasties like the Holy Demon Dynasty use mortals as cultivation supplements.
One could say that in this Cangzhou continent, apart from Great Xia, mortals in other places live a life of extreme misery.
Only the Emperor of Great Xia possesses such courage.
…
“You bunch of hillbillies from the Ancient Beast Kingdom, how can you possibly understand the mind and ability of our Great Xia emperor?”
“Exactly! A group of people who haven’t seen the world, thinking a little powerful rogue cultivator appearing is something impressive? Little do they know, any rogue cultivator entering our Great Xia capital must pretend to be an ordinary person!”
The crowd chimed in one after another, leaving Gu Chuan utterly perplexed.
“Then why are you still harming others? Quickly release my war servant, or I swear no matter who you are, you’ll pay a price you can’t bear!”
Gu Chuan gritted his teeth as he said this.
Although he knew the rules of Great Xia, he wasn’t afraid.
After all, he was invited by the royal family of Great Xia.
And behind him stood the legitimate son of a Great Xia minister.
Such a minor issue shouldn’t be a problem.
Just as he finished speaking, a young man rushed over, panting heavily.
“Brother Gu, I’ve finally caught up! Why are you in such a hurry? Do you know this is the capital? You can’t be so casual!”
“Brother Kong, you made it! This man harmed my war servant and even wanted to kill him. Is this how you treat guests in Great Xia?”
“Who is it? So blind? I’ll… I’ll just…”
Kong Yu followed the direction Gu Chuan pointed and saw the strange-smiling Qin Bei.
“Prince Bei~~”
Calling out this name seemed to drain all of Kong Yu’s energy.
Wow~
As soon as Kong Yu said this, those around him gasped in shock.
“Prince Bei? So he is Prince Bei? No wonder he’s so arrogant…”
“I’ve only heard of Prince Bei before; this is the first time I’m seeing the real deal. He’s even more handsome than the rumors say.”
“This time, Gu Chuan really hit a wall.”
“This isn’t just a wall; this is at least a thousand-year-old cold iron!”
…….
“What’s wrong? Brother Kong, do you know this person?”
Gu Chuan asked in confusion.
Kong Yu gulped down hard.
“I know him, and… how could your war servant be so blind? Offending Prince Bei? If he decided to kill these people, it would be a light punishment; you still dare to stop him?”
Kong Yu whispered into Gu Chuan’s ear.
“Ah? What do you mean?”
Gu Chuan was utterly clueless and had no idea what was happening.
“Don’t say anything; just leave it to me next. Just do whatever I tell you to do in a moment, don’t resist!”
Kong Yu knew Qin Bei’s temperament far too well.
The rumors about spoiled young masters say you should never offend Prince Bei.
There’s truth to that.
At least, no one who’s crossed Qin Bei has ever ended up comfortably…
