Chapter 82 Bounty Order
Chapter 82 Bounty Order
Soto.
Xiao Yan glanced at the inscription on the city gate, but without stopping, he followed the flow of people into the city.
A crowd had gathered in front of the bulletin board not far from the city gate. He glanced over it casually and, sure enough, saw his own face in the most conspicuous spot: a bounty poster issued by the Spirit Hall.
The portrait bears a striking resemblance to the person, and the bounty amount below is enough to drive ordinary Soul Masters mad.
But the problem is...
"Godf***ing Son of Heaven... Wasn't the battle in the Blue Silver Forest obvious enough? That beggar was beaten to a pulp, and I was so powerful I could only do that, how come I still have this title?"
Xiao Yan couldn't help but mutter to himself.
However, he simply walked past the notice board, and the surrounding crowd didn't react at all; no one even glanced at him. The Soul Masters who were pointing and commenting on the bounty posters glanced at him as if he were just another ordinary passerby.
"Sigh, whatever. Controlling public opinion is really powerful. I can't think of any other reason besides the Spirit Hall having ill intentions."
Xiao Yan pondered for a moment, then shook his head silently.
Next to his portrait on the bulletin board, there was also a wanted poster, showing Tang Hao's current appearance: a messy beard and a haggard look, with the following markings.
Severely injured and crippled, his fighting ability is reduced to less than one-tenth, and he has lost an arm and a leg!
"Is it really that bad? Tsk tsk..."
Xiao Yan sighed, but inwardly he was even more excited.
The more miserable the better! And they haven't even been caught yet!
Then it's his turn to pick up the bargains.
His mood improved slightly, and he quickened his pace, intending to cross the main street and exit the city from the other side.
But we just passed by a hotel called "Rose Hotel".
The road ahead was cleared by a group of royal knights in bright armor, and pedestrians were politely stopped on both sides.
"It's a royal carriage!"
"Look at that flag...it's His Highness the First Prince!"
"Your Highness Xue Qinghe? I've heard that Your Highness is wise and virtuous. What brings you here this time...?"
"Is that even a question? It's something that even the Pope was alarmed about. Don't tell me you've forgotten?!"
"The Son of Haotian? I thought it was a lie. How could someone so young possess more than two soul bones? It seems it's true. Could it be that the Haotian Sect is colluding with soul beasts...?"
The hushed conversations of passersby reached my ears.
Xiao Yan also stopped in his tracks with curiosity, frowned, and turned his gaze to the magnificent carriage that was slowly approaching.
The curtains in the car window were half-rolled up, and one could vaguely see a blond young man in a platinum suit, with a gentle and refined demeanor, sitting inside, nodding slightly to greet the people on both sides of the road.
The young man was handsome, with a warm smile, and possessed a truly admirable and kind demeanor.
However, Xiao Yan's gaze involuntarily fell on the outline of the other person's slightly full chest, which was covered by gorgeous clothes.
A barely perceptible purple light flashed across his forehead, and he paused, momentarily stunned.
The Crown Prince of the Empire? No heir, a helpless situation…
This is such a familiar tactic...
Xiao Yan's lips twitched involuntarily.
"Why are the Crown Prince's pectoral muscles so exaggerated?"
"A woman dressed as a man? That should be it."
"The classic trope of a fallen dynasty or empire in a fantasy world... I really miss it, but..."
It's none of my business.
The beggar was still waiting for him to give him a heartwarming gift.
Just as Xiao Yan was about to look away, he inadvertently made eye contact with the eldest prince named "Xue Qinghe" from afar.
Their eyes met briefly in mid-air.
"Um?"
"Um?"
The other person saw him.
That's right, Xiao Yan realized this immediately.
Being able to meet his gaze in a crowd is enough to show that the other party's strength is extraordinary and that his level is much higher than one's own.
And in this face-to-face confrontation.
Xiao Yan also truly saw the real appearance of this eldest prince or princess. He was indeed good-looking, with delicate features, but what was most special was his noble temperament, which was the biggest plus.
It makes one feel an irresistible urge to desecrate it!
If I'm alright, and if the other person can't see me...
That might lead to something indescribable!
But at this moment, the other person's pupils were not as gentle as when he greeted the people just now. Instead, they contracted rapidly, revealing a very subtle look of astonishment and disbelief!
No, this isn't a normal reaction!
The other person has feelings for me!
It happened almost the instant the thought arose.
"parking!"
Xiao Yan heard the command, and the luxurious carriage came to a sudden stop.
The eldest prince strode out of the carriage.
His gaze was fixed on the direction he was in!
But when the gaze fell upon it, all that could be seen was a fleeting afterimage of pink light in the crowd, and the spot was now empty.
"Am I seeing things? There's... nobody here?"
Xue Qinghe, no, Qian Renxue, frowned slightly as she looked at the spot where she had just been. That was the person repeatedly mentioned in the wanted posters and in the intelligence reports of the Spirit Hall. He had clearly appeared here just now and even made eye contact with her.
"No, it can't be a hallucination!"
With the blessing of the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, her perception symbolizes the ultimate light and truth, and she is almost never troubled by ordinary illusions or inner demons.
What you see before your eyes is the truth.
Therefore, the only explanation is that the other party did appear, but then left the spot in some way in an instant.
"But the soul beast is no longer in that forest; it has come here."
As this judgment flashed through my mind!
Qian Renxue immediately made a decision. The two Douluo, Porcupine and Serpent Spear, were too badly injured in the battle of Blue Silver Forest and had not yet returned to their posts to report. The people sent by the Hall of Worship were the ones that were sent.
Although they are already on their way, but...
They were mostly monitoring that woman.
His disguise was flawless, but now it had tied his hands. As the eldest prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, he couldn't openly pursue people from the nominally Upper Three Sects!
But we can't just give up.
Soul Bones! Even the Spirit Hall doesn't possess many! One soul bone is worth an entire faction!
And it's been 100,000 years!
With this, her contributions will not only extend to the Heaven Dou Empire, but the Spirit Hall will also receive unprecedented acclaim!
...and can also better prove oneself.
It saves at least several years, or even decades, of effort!
Hesitation leads to defeat; hesitation leads to missed opportunities!
And she won't hesitate!
Qian Renxue's gaze quickly swept across the surrounding environment, finally landing on the eye-catching "Rose Hotel" not far away.
"I'm a bit tired after a long journey today."
Qian Renxue spoke gently, yet she gave instructions to the attendant beside her.
Let's rest here tonight.
"But, Your Highness..."
Upon hearing this, the surrounding royal knights and guards...
Their gazes fell upon the hotel sign, which was clearly themed around couples, and they were all taken aback, about to speak.
Qian Renxue waved her hand, revealing a tired expression, and without saying anything more, walked straight into the hotel.
