Chapter 21

From Xiao Xianlu's perspective, after breaking off the engagement with the Fourth Prince,

Her future lover must at least be someone of the caliber of a Prince Charming.

Little did she know that when Grand Duke Xiao learned of this, he fiercely beat this unworthy daughter.

Especially after hearing that this little daughter actually called the Fourth Prince Xue Beng a waste, he was furious beyond measure and confined this unfilial daughter for three months.

Grand Duke Xiao said: Although the Fourth Prince Xue Beng is a waste, everyone knows this, but you absolutely shouldn't have said it in front of Prince Xue Xing—this is slapping the imperial family's face.

Of course, these are matters for later.

After the remaining guards escorted the heaven-defying Xiao Xianlu away, Prince Xue Xing put on a smile and sincerely said to Tian Yu: "Tian Yu, you see this is completely a misunderstanding; you cannot resign."

Unlike the Shrek Academy teachers who later prepared to seek refuge in the academy,

Although he is also a Soul Saint-level soul master, Feng Tian Yu truly came straight from the battlefield.

Even with only the cultivation of a high-level Soul Saint, he can handle an ordinary Soul Douluo.

Setting aside his own strength, behind Feng Tian Yu stands the entire empire's Border Legion.

If they withdraw their support for Xue Beng, it would practically announce that the throne has nothing to do with that Fourth Prince.

"A misunderstanding? Old fool, I suspect you're deliberately looking for trouble."

Feng Tian Yu obviously didn't want to give Prince Xue Xing face.

Although he isn't a Title Douluo-level expert, Prince Xue Xing truly angered him,

This prince might not be able to get away with it.

As for killing this Soul Saint on the spot in Tian Dou City? Well, well, once the Border Legion's nearly 400,000 soldiers get the news, they might very well mutiny directly.

After all, fighting you nobles who love to bully civilians was already unpleasant,

Now you again, under false pretenses, brutally killed that general who rose from the commoners in the former Border Legion.

Do you still want face?

Moreover, among the Border Legion are many of Feng Tian Yu's comrades, most of whom are senior commanders at the Soul Emperor to Soul Saint level.

Upon learning that his former sworn brother had been persecuted by the empire.

"What a damn prince! Are you trying to test the sharpness of our blades?" "Ah ah, Tian Yu, this is completely a misunderstanding."

"How about this? I can agree to any condition of yours. How about that?"

In order to prevent the empire from turmoil, Prince Xue Xing lowered his stance.

"Fine, but can you get me a soul bone for this condition?"

"Tian Yu, you're not making things difficult for me, are you? Soul bones are such precious things; the imperial treasury only has a few, and as a prince, where would I have such a collection?"

Soul bones are indeed extremely precious.

Besides the low probability of soul beasts dropping soul bones, a major reason is that soul masters immediately absorb the soul bones.

This also caused soul bones to be available but priceless.

"Then just give me a few tens of thousands of gold soul coins."

At Feng Tianyu's level, aside from soul bones, there's nothing else he wants.

He reluctantly brings out some gold soul coins, just as a token.

"Sure, sure."

For Prince Xuexing, aside from nothing else, he still has plenty of gold soul coins; let alone several tens of thousands, even taking out ten or twenty hundred thousand is no big problem.

"Uncle Feng, I don't want gold soul coins; I want to propose a condition."

Just then, Bai Ran grabbed Feng Tianyu's arm and shook it, indicating that he should be the one to bring up that condition.

"Tian Yu, may I ask who this child is?"

To be valued this much by Feng Tianyu, I don't know what kind of child this is.

"He is the only son of Old Brother Tianming." "Tianming? Is that Bai Tianming?"

"Could there be a second Bai Tianming in the Tian Dou Empire?"

"Wasn't he dead?"

"He isn't dead."

Bai Tianming, that is Bai Ran's father's original name.

"Then does this child inherit his father's martial soul?"

Regarding how abnormal Bai Tianming's banner martial soul is, Prince Xuexing deeply understands.

Initially, Bai Tianming relied on ten thousand soldiers and the boost from his banner martial soul to stubbornly resist the successive attacks of the Star Luo Empire's 200,000-strong army.

In that battle he became a god; at that time he was merely a commander of ten thousand with the Soul King realm.

If this child possesses the banner martial soul, then he alone could withstand an army of 500,000.

No wonder Feng Tianyu values this child so highly,

This is practically the empire's future hope; let alone drawing the second miss of the Xiao family, even drawing Prince Xuexing would be fine.

Of course, don't cause a scene in public, otherwise the royal family would lose face.

"Yes, and this child also has innate full soul power."

Feng Tianyu briefly told Prince Xuexing Bai Ran's information.

Although I dislike Prince Xuexing on the surface, after all he is the only brother of the current Emperor Xueye.

When it comes to safeguarding the interests of the Tian Dou Empire, he dares to claim second place; likely no one dares to claim first.

"Tian Yu, you're saying this child is already a Soul Elder before the age of ten!"

Prince Xuexing's emotions were excited, his eyes filled with a fiery glow.

He seemed to see the future pillar of the Tian Dou Empire.

"Child, this is the token of my prince's manor; if you have any problems in the future, you can come find me, Uncle."

Such talent, in the future will surely achieve Title Douluo.

It's not too late to give investment now; furthermore, it can let Xue Beng and this child make more connections.

Even if in the future Xue Qinghe usurps the imperial throne, as long as there is such a presence in the army, Xue Beng still has a chance to contend for the throne.

"This, this isn't okay?"

Bai Ran said it wasn't good with his mouth, but his body honestly took this badge and put it away.

……

Hey kid, what do you want? Uncle, I can satisfy any request.

Prince Xue Xing: except for soul bones and doing math problems.

"I've heard that the prince and the Poison Douluo senior are quite close."

When dealing with a Title Douluo, one must use an honorific; that's the rule. If you offend them with an improper address and encounter someone narrow-minded, it's really possible to die.

Indeed we are acquainted; I don't know what business you, kid, have with the Poison Douluo senior.

Prince Xue Xing doesn't understand why a nine-year-old child would seek the Poison Douluo; perhaps it's because they've never seen a Title Douluo-level expert since childhood, so they want to meet and see the opponent reveal nine soul rings to feel the might of a Title Douluo.

I've heard that the Poison Douluo senior has a medicinal garden; I want to go see it, and by the way ask the Poison Douluo senior for some herbs.

Bai Ran knows Du Gu Yan, so it's normal that he learned about the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye from her.

According to the original plan, Bai Ran should first become good friends with Du Gu Yan, and then go visit Du Gu Bo.

But now, with the appearance of Prince Xue Xing as a variable, the plan for the immortal herbs of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye can be put on the agenda.
