Ye Qiu looked directly at the enduring and burdened Fourth Prince of Heaven Dou, and calmly nodded.
"That's right! I am…"
"Good, ah~ good, ah!"
"In this Heaven Dou Academy, there's actually someone who dares to hit my people?"
Clap clap! Xue Beng clapped his hands, seemingly applauding Ye Qiu's actions, but his eyes grew colder.
"Prince Xue Beng, what are you saying? When did I hit him?"
Ye Qiu spread his hands, looking innocent, but remaining calm inside.
"I didn't even touch him! How can you accuse someone out of thin air!"
"Heh heh, since you know me, you should also be clear! If I say you hit him! Then you hit him!"
Xue Beng showed a mocking expression, completely unwilling to get entangled in such trivial matters with Ye Qiu.
His policy was to be arrogant and overbearing to the end!
Looking into his eyes, Ye Qiu always felt that when Xue Beng spoke, he was constantly sizing him up.
"So, what do you want?"
Before Xue Beng could speak, Sa Bu Chu, lying on the stretcher, was already impatient.
"Big Brother Xue Beng, break his four limbs! No! Five limbs! Break all five of his limbs!"
"Did you hear that? My brother said he wants to break all five of your limbs?" His eyes, slightly unfocused from indulgence, showed triumph, as if he had already got Ye Qiu cornered.
"Heh heh… you can certainly try!"
Ye Qiu finally understood; the other party was here to cause trouble.
"Good! Then break all five of his limbs! Go for it!"
As he gave the order, Xue Beng did not forget to retreat, moving away from Ye Qiu.
"Brothers! Unleash your Spirits!"
Whoosh! A dazzling array of Spirits appeared, making people dizzy.
"I wonder if Prince Xue Beng can bear the consequences if these people end up missing arms and legs?"
Ye Qiu's voice was cold, the tomoe in his eyes transforming into six-pointed stars. In this situation, Susanoo seemed to be the best solution. If they really fought, many of these people would likely be injured or killed.
However, he did not choose to make a move.
Because his Sharingan had already sensed something.
"In Heaven Dou Academy, I, this Prince, am Heaven! There is nothing I cannot bear!"
"Is that so? It seems my good younger brother has really become something, hasn't he!"
Just as Xue Beng finished his bold declaration, a voice, authoritative yet tinged with amusement, rang in his ears.
Instantly.
A cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Everyone else also stopped their movements, looking in the direction from which the voice came.
The golden-haired, elegantly dressed Xue Qinghe slowly walked over.
"B-Big Brother!"
Like a mouse seeing a cat, Xue Beng trembled with fear. His former arrogance turned into obsequiousness.
"Why haven't you told them to stop! If you hurt my esteemed guest, can you bear the consequences!?" Xue Qinghe coldly reprimanded, anger showing on his usually calm face.
"Y-Yes! Big Brother, I'll have them stop right now…" Xue Beng's head bobbed like a rattle-drum, constantly nodding.
"Bastards! Why are you still using your Spirits! What if you scare my Big Brother's esteemed guest? Do you believe I'll kill you all?! Huh?"
His subservient and arrogant demeanor switched effortlessly.
Ye Qiu couldn't help but admire his acting skills. No wonder he could scheme until the end and become a puppet emperor for a petty villain.
Everyone put away their Spirits as instructed, and Ye Qiu also came before Xue Qinghe.
"Thank you, Crown Prince!"
"There's no need for that, Brother Ye Qiu. I already know the full story; it's my foolish younger brother who lacks manners!"
When Xue Qinghe faced Ye Qiu, he had put away his authoritative demeanor, showing only a sense of amiability.
"Xue Beng! Why aren't you coming over to apologize and make amends to Brother Ye Qiu!"
"O-Okay! I'm coming now…" Xue Beng's expression was a bit forced, clearly, he was somewhat unwilling to lose face in front of such a crowd.
"Brother Ye Qiu, I am truly sorry just now!"
His head was lowered, and the expression beneath was slightly contorted, filled with resentment and malice.
When he raised his head again, it was a smile full of fawning.
"How is it, Brother Ye Qiu, are you satisfied? If you're not satisfied, I'll personally punish them!"
"No need!" Ye Qiu reached out to stop Xue Qinghe, staring strangely at Xue Beng, a red light flashing in his eyes.
"I want to do it myself."
"Big Brother! This absolutely cannot be!" Xue Beng's expression changed slightly.
"Do it yourself?" Xue Qinghe frowned, looking a bit troubled.
"Brother Ye Qiu, my foolish younger brother is still a member of the Imperial Family, this is against the rules!"
"Right! This is against the rules!" How could he, Xue Beng, a dignified Prince, be left to the mercy of a commoner.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing! I just want to punish him a little!" Ye Qiu extended his finger, pointing at Sa Bu Chu, who was lying on the stretcher.
Of course, Ye Qiu wouldn't be foolish enough to openly make trouble for a Prince; the Heaven Dou Empire also had its dignity to uphold.
"Hmm?" Xue Qinghe also looked towards the stretcher, then nodded, agreeing.
"N-No! Crown Prince, I was wrong…"
Sa Bu Chu's wails and pleas were useless.
Ye Qiu also didn't do it himself.
A flicker of surprise flashed in Xue Qinghe's eyes.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Xue Beng's gaze became blank.
Like a zombie, he slowly walked to the stretcher and, with one hand, grabbed Sa Bu Chu's handle.
The wails he emitted grew louder and more intense.
"Ah! Big Brother Xue Beng! No… Ah!!!"
A shriek, sharp and heart-wrenching.
Devastation, like a lotus root whose threads are still connected after breaking, utterly ruined.
Since he wanted to break his five limbs, Ye Qiu wouldn't be polite to him and directly confiscated his 'tools of crime'.
If he didn't receive timely treatment, once the wound scabbed and healed, he would truly live up to his name!
Xue Qinghe's expression was a bit unnatural, and he secretly cursed in his heart.
He subtly gave Ye Qiu a sidelong glance, his tone carrying a barely perceptible hint of playful reproach.
"How is it, satisfied?"
"Passable!" Ye Qiu nodded.
"I imagine you've already had your meal, so I'll see you off, and we can chat a bit! How about it?"
"With the Crown Prince seeing me off, how could I refuse?"
The two exchanged a few polite words, then stepped forward and left the place.
"Heh heh~!"
As the two walked away, the recovered Xue Beng let out a few strange laughs, somewhat contemptuous and somewhat chilling.
'I thought my good Big Brother had met some peerless genius! Turns out his Spirit Ability is just an illusion.'
He licked the blood on his hand, a morbidly satisfied expression on his face, and a crimson blood mist flashed in his eyes, emitting an evil aura.
He closed and opened his eyes, and in an instant, he returned to normal, becoming an ordinary scion once again.
Sa Bu Chu, lying on the stretcher, had a pale face and lips, and his teeth were still chattering.
"Big Brother Xue Beng…"
"Shut up! If it weren't for your father sending me a pair of cat girls last time, I'd kill you right now!"
Xue Beng roared. If it weren't for him boasting to himself about how powerful Ye Qiu was, why would he have specifically come here to test him, suffering this humiliation for nothing.
He exerted force again, causing a second blow.
Sa Bu Chu let out another miserable scream and fainted.
"Someone, throw him back!"
Xue Beng waved his hand in disgust. A useless person who had lost his basic ability and couldn't inherit his family business was no longer valuable to him.
"Hmph!" He flicked his sleeve and left the area.
The humiliation of today, he would surely repay someday!
