Douluo Continent: My Days in the Tang Sect.

Chapter 1078 It's all an act!

Chapter 1078 It's all an act!

"presumptuous!!!"

Witten roared and immediately took out a bone whistle and blew it.

The next moment, a large number of bodyguards emerged.

"Your Highness Witten, you have been reported for hoarding military equipment, misappropriating state funds to purchase soul tools, and stealing military soul tools to arm yourself. We now suspect you of having the intention of staging an armed coup. Please give up resistance," the palace attendant said calmly.

At the same time, he completely released his breath.

"It's Gu Ming'en! The Eighth Imperial Attendant!" Witten's strategist shouted in a low voice.

Gu Ming'en glanced at the strategist indifferently, flicked his finger, and a burst of soul power slammed into the latter's head, knocking him unconscious on the spot.

Witten's face was ashen, his chest heaving, and his eyes were bloodshot, like a wounded beast.

However, he was well aware of Gu Ming'en's strength—a level 95 Super Douluo—but he was extremely low-key and obeyed the throne.

His two titled Douluo were only at the highest level of 93, and they were also rogue cultivators with inflated levels. They had voluntarily joined him, and their martial souls were barely considered good.

But in front of the renowned "Iron Hand" Gu Ming'en, they were completely powerless.

The surrounding guards also turned their attention to Gu Ming'en, while the guards waiting outside also targeted Qi Mao. In their hands were the same batch of charged soul-guided crossbows that they had obtained from Ye Nanxiao.

However, facing hundreds of guards wielding charged soul-guided crossbows, Qi Mao picked his nose, completely unconcerned.

Even his soldiers were somewhat dismissive of this, as if their soul-guided armor was just for show.

This is their master! Princess Vina personally supervised the creation of the Tang Clan!

It is said that during this process, Princess Vina personally wielded a hammer! She crafted the emblem for each soldier's Soul-Guided Armor!

This thrilled every soldier who received the Soul Guidance Armor.

Princess Vina values ​​them highly! She personally crafted badges for them!

For soldiers, what makes them happy is not only honor and a secure livelihood, but also safety and enhanced combat capabilities.

Princess Vina has now upgraded their equipment. This set of Soul Guidance Armor makes every soldier feel that their combat power has increased more than threefold. More importantly, this set of Soul Guidance Armor has very strong defensive capabilities!

With a qualitative improvement in both combat power and security, they became even more loyal to Princess Vina. Furthermore, Emperor Tianhun had revealed more than once that Princess Vina might be the future empress, which fueled their fighting spirit to the extreme.

The future emperor! This greatly increases the chances of these loyal soldiers being given important positions in the future!

In reality, it was Ye Nanxiao who suggested that Princess Vina participate in the design of these soul-guided armors, and he personally designed the armor's emblem.

Then, the Tang Clan's propaganda department was used to spread the word, with the aim of quickly winning over the generals in Tiandou City. After all, only with military power can one have imperial power.

Princess Vina, as the successor to the Heavenly Soul Emperor, immediately realized the enormous benefits this would bring to her. Without much hesitation, she directly agreed to Ye Nanxiao's idea.

Although she knew that Ye Nanxiao was doing her an enormous favor, Princess Vina accepted the huge favor in exchange for the massive benefits.

She had a premonition that when she ascended the throne, the military power of Tiandou City would be firmly in her hands.

Qi Mao patted the soul-guided armor on his body, secretly surprised by the current level of soul-guided tools in the Tang Sect. As one of the generals, he naturally had considerable knowledge of soul-guided tools.

This soul-guided armor can more than double the combat power of an army!

What a terrifying sect! What terrifying soul tool technology!

Witten took a deep breath, repeatedly telling himself to stay calm.

Princess Vina's move was intended to lure him into revealing his true colors. Despite being surrounded by guards, he was still a member of the royal family. Without substantial and concrete evidence, no one could possibly arrest him and throw him in the dungeon.

"Then, Eighth Elder, I would like to ask you a question! Of the crimes you have mentioned, which one is my crime?"

The money was the result of my hard work over the years, plus the support of those old goods. I also conducted a legal transaction with the Tang Sect. Where would I get a military soul tool?

Wait a minute? It's related to the Tang Clan?

Witten suddenly remembered that the guards had reported to him that Vice Sect Master Ye of the Tang Clan had been dismissed? And that everything he had done was not business permitted by the Tang Clan?

Ye Nanxiao!!!

Seeing the constant changes in Witten's expression, Gu Ming'en guessed that the latter had understood the meaning behind his words.

"Your Highness Vitern, Vice Sect Leader Ye of the Tang Sect has been using the Sect Leader's warrant and seal without authorization to move a batch of soul tools that belonged to the armory for handover, and has taken it upon himself to sell them. Prince Vitern, do you understand now? These soul tools in the hands of these guards look very familiar to me."

Witten's expression kept changing; he had no idea why Ye Nanxiao had been purged by the Tang Clan.

However, he used a large amount of his savings to purchase these charged soul tools, and they were very useful. He had already secretly equipped his bodyguards and assassins with them.

Asking him to hand it over now is like cutting off his flesh.

Witten tried to struggle, but Gu Ming'en didn't give him the chance. "Your Highness Witten, I am ordered to retrieve this batch of soul tools. Please do not make things difficult for me. As for your deal with the Tang Sect, you will have to go to the Tang Sect. The national treasury has already paid for it."

Witten gritted his teeth. He had originally thought that the Tang Sect was not an impenetrable fortress and that its cooperation with Vina was not absolute. He even thought that by influencing Vice Sect Master Ye, he had a chance to sabotage the cooperative relationship between Vina and the Tang Sect.

Now it seems that Tangmen is firmly standing with Vina, so will he be able to get his money back?

"Wait! If it's my money, then why did the Eighth Elder say I misappropriated funds from the national treasury?" Witten stalled for time, secretly making a hand gesture to the guards behind him.

"Oh, Your Highness Witten, taking the soul tools from the armory is tantamount to stealing funds from the national treasury, isn't it?" Gu Ming'en waved his hand.

Qi Mao received the signal, drew his sword, and shouted, "Surrender and you will not be killed!"

This sound seemed to be a signal to activate the guards. The two soul-guided cannons were directly aimed at Vitern, and the remaining soldiers drew their standard soul-guided swords.

Witten gritted his teeth; Vina was digging her own grave!

If his forces are taken away, not only will the approximate size of his forces be determined, but his combat strength will also be greatly weakened.

But if he didn't hand it over, Witten didn't think Gu Mingen would show any mercy. He was a prince, that's true, but princes can die too.

After a mental struggle, Witten finally waved his hand weakly and said, "Leave it to them."

The guards, following orders, returned the charged soul tools they were holding.

However, Qi Mao took the charging soul tool from one of the guards and revealed a meaningful smile.

Witten witnessed this scene, especially Qi Mao's murderous gaze, and his heart skipped a beat.

next moment.

"Bang!"

The charging soul tool in Qi Mao's hand exploded instantly, and blinding flames engulfed Qi Mao's entire upper body.

"Enemy attack!"

Qi Mao fell backward quite appropriately.

Gu Ming'en immediately shouted, "Ready for battle!"

Witten felt a chill run down his spine; he had been instantly locked onto by Gu Ming'en.

Under the lock-on aura of the Super Douluo, he had nowhere to escape.

"Protect His Highness!"

The two bodyguards behind Witten immediately took action, remembering their purpose.

But for Gu Ming'en, it meant nothing.

The latest novel is first published here!

"Sky-Covering Hand!"

"Pfft"

A large amount of red and white stuff was splashed all over Witten's face.

That unique fishy smell stimulated Witten's brain.

But before he could even get angry or roar, Gu Ming'en grabbed his head with one hand and then used his soul power to knock Witten unconscious.

"Damn! That's pretty powerful!"

Seeing that the matter was over, Qi Mao quickly got up from the ground and rubbed the back of his head.

"This general has injuries to both hands and the back of his head! Do you understand?!"

"Understood!"

"Very well! Issue my order: seal off the area! Leave no one alive!"

News of the sealing off of Prince Witten's residence spread quickly.

The same applies to Vicon and Vinatley.

Vinatley is easy to deal with, but has a fiery temper and is easily provoked.

The sixth priest, who was in charge of taking Venatelli away, barely had to say a word before Venatelli, in a moment of mental lapse, attacked him.

Then the sixth priest happily completed his task and went back to report.

Conversely, it takes the most time for Vicon.

The seventh offering floated slowly in front of the gate of the Viktor's Mansion.

When faced with the guards surrounding him and the arrival of the Seventh Patriarch, Viktor did not panic. He even openly sent someone to ask his mother for help.

The seventh offering did not stop them, but quietly watched as Viktor completed a series of arrangements.

"Old Zhao, have you been bought off by Vina? She's just a princess now!" While stalling for time, Viktor did not forget to sow discord.

The implication is that the Heavenly Soul Emperor isn't even dead yet, and you're already rushing to take sides?

But is this disrespect towards the emperor?

Generally, whether you answer this kind of question or not, you'll fall into a trap.

If you answer, you'll be suspected of taking sides; if you don't answer, it means you're guilty.

No matter what choice is made, it will leave a thorn in the emperor's heart.

The Seventh Offering glanced at Wei Kang and brought up the same reason that Gu Ming'en had used.

"The Vice Sect Leader Ye's embezzlement should have nothing to do with me, Your Highness, right?"

"He embezzled, but the money and goods have been settled. The export agreement is in effect, the transaction is complete, and how things develop in the end is none of my business," Viktor said matter-of-factly.

"As for the procurement of military equipment, and other issues, they are none of my concern. I will take care of taking this batch of soul tools myself," the Seventh Elder said calmly.

Wei Kang narrowed his eyes slightly. These soul tools were quite crucial, allowing the assassins to better maintain their state while carrying out missions. He would first consume the charged soul tools.

"So what if I refuse to hand it over? It's just a transaction. What business is it of the buyer if the merchant gets into trouble? Elder Zhao, you don't think I'm easy to bully, do you?"

As soon as Wei Kang finished speaking, several titled Douluo appeared.

The general in charge of the operation to capture Viktor was equally ruthless. He drew his sword and ordered the soul-guided cannons to be raised and aimed at the gate.

The atmosphere was tense and ready to fight.

(P.S. I've caught a cold and will be taking the day off tomorrow. It's quite serious; I have a headache, dizziness, and a runny nose late at night. I need to go to the hospital tomorrow. Sorry.)
