Chapter 272 Unafraid of the Prince's Mansion
Old Master Ouyang's face was as black as charcoal.
The Ouyang family has powerful connections; they have influential figures in the capital backing them up.
The fact that he could use a token to make the second son of the Prince of Pingbei withdraw his troops proves that the important figure is very influential.
Originally, as long as Xiao Chen didn't do anything too outrageous, he could have calmed things down.
But now, Xiao Chen has actually killed the adopted son of the Prince of Pingbei!
And in full view of everyone...
How can he possibly appease him?
Poke the sky!
The Pingbei Prince's Mansion controls the northwest of the Xia Kingdom, making it an uncrowned king. No matter how extraordinary the Ouyang family's background is, it is not enough to rival them.
Killing the adopted son of the Prince of Pingbei could be the trigger for a major earthquake!
Old Master Ouyang kept a stern face and remained silent.
A deathly silence fell over the area surrounding the Ouyang family, both openly and secretly.
After a long while, a sound finally came out.
Everyone's expression changed, some shocked, some confused, some sneered, and some sighed.
To dare kill the adopted son of the Prince of Pingbei is incredibly audacious!
"I heard that the Prince of Pingbei had no sons in his life and was extremely fond of this adopted son. The Chang family also agreed that if they had any offspring in the future, one of them should take the Prince of Pingbei's surname to carry on the family name. The Xiao family abandoned their son and even killed his adopted son, which is to sever all his last hope..."
"This outcast of the Xiao family is utterly audacious!"
“The Prince of Pingbei has not shown himself for a long time. Can he tolerate this?”
"The sky is falling! The sky in the Northwest is about to fall! A great upheaval is inevitable, and the situation will be turbulent!"
……
The whispers around them continued, but gradually grew louder and louder.
Everyone thought Xiao Chen was doomed.
"Grandpa, I don't care, you have to help him!" Ouyang Muxue shook Grandpa Ouyang's hand and said in a coquettish manner.
Grandpa Ouyang was shaken so badly that he couldn't relax his brow.
"This is difficult...this is really difficult!"
"However, Grandpa will do everything in his power to save his life!" he said resolutely.
This young man is the future son-in-law of the Ouyang family...
He's only in his early twenties, yet he managed to kill even a King-level expert like the Valley Master of Medicine King Valley...
The martial arts world of Xia Kingdom hasn't seen such a promising talent for many years.
"Pack up."
Old Master Ouyang waved his hand, and a group of people appeared and began to tidy up the garden.
With so many corpses, it would take a long time to carry each one.
Watching the Ouyang family members move the corpses like cement, the onlookers were filled with turbulent emotions.
None of these corpses... were ordinary people.
Most of them are prominent figures on the front lines.
Some people have never failed before, yet they lose their lives right here.
There are a few rare, top-tier assassins.
"No matter what, the abandoned son of the Xiao family is truly powerful!" someone exclaimed.
"To have such terrifying strength at such a young age, I think he can be called the most amazing talent in the Xia Kingdom's martial arts world in the last thirty years!" This was the evaluation given by an old martial artist, and it was agreed by others.
Xiao Chen ignored the voices.
He scanned his surroundings with sharp eyes, leaving no one unchecked, whether they were in the shadows or in the light.
He knew that there were some people with ill intentions hiding there, and even some of his enemies.
"Anyone else who wants to kill me, Xiao Chen, come at me if you're not afraid of death!" Xiao Chen said coldly.
"From this day forward, come at me! Anyone who dares to harm my loved ones, I, Xiao Chen, will make them wish they were dead! Their bloodline will be severed! Their entire clan will be exterminated!"
The voice, imbued with immense pressure, resounded like thunder in everyone's ears.
Everyone was terrified.
"This kid..."
Old Master Ouyang narrowed his eyes, and couldn't help but show a look of shock.
"I never imagined his aura would be so imposing. He doesn't seem like a young man at all; he seems more like a peerless figure destined to rule the world!" he exclaimed.
The people around the Ouyang family garden began to disperse.
The battle we witnessed today will soon be widely known.
The name "Xiao Chen" will shake the martial arts world of Xia Kingdom...
This matter will cause a great uproar in the city, and the Prince of Pingbei's mansion will definitely take action.
Everything is unknown, and many people are waiting to see how it ends.
Xiao Chen walked up to Ouyang Muxue and her granddaughter.
"I apologize for the inconvenience today," he said, bowing slightly.
"Don't mention it, it's nothing."
"But you killed the adopted son of the Prince of Pingbei, which is going to stir up a storm. I think you should lay low for a while," Old Master Ouyang advised.
"I've never liked hiding and dodging." Xiao Chen said calmly.
“Xiao Chen, don’t act rashly. The Pingbei Prince’s Mansion is very powerful and beyond your ability to handle. You are still young and need to understand the principle that the too strong are easily broken.” Old Master Ouyang frowned.
"The Prince of Pingbei's residence is fine. I will go there in person soon to meet the Prince of Pingbei."
Both Old Master Ouyang and Ouyang Muxue's expressions changed.
Will he be able to defeat King Bei?
What an arrogant tone!
Xiao Chen wasn't joking.
But that's the Prince of Pingbei's residence. Can just anyone barge in?
"Xiao Chen, you'd better not be impulsive. Even if you are so powerful now, you are still far from being able to break into the Pingbei Prince's Mansion. I advise you to give up this idea!" Old Master Ouyang warned.
“Yes, Xiao Chen… With your current strength, you can’t deal with the Prince of Pingbei. Just hide in the Ouyang family, and my grandfather will try to protect you…” Ouyang Muxue also advised.
Xiao Chen smiled slightly and said nothing.
"Goodbye."
He cupped his hands in a gesture of respect, then turned and walked away, intending to leave the Ouyang family.
Even though Ouyang Muxue kept calling out, she couldn't keep him.
Watching his figure disappear, Ouyang Muxue became extremely anxious.
"Grandpa, what should we do? Please help me think of a way!" she pleaded. "I'm all his now. What will I do if he dies?"
Old Master Ouyang's face darkened, and he remained silent for a long while.
Xiao Chen was already in danger enough after killing the adopted son of the Prince of Pingbei, and it would be difficult to resolve the situation.
He still wants to target the Prince of Pingbei's residence... What should we do?
"I can't even see through this kid's strength. I'm afraid I alone can't stop him," Old Master Ouyang sighed.
"What? Even you aren't confident?" Ouyang Muxue was very surprised.
She knew how strong the old man was, but had Xiao Chen really become that powerful?
Surely not?
"It seems I need to communicate with our ancestors..." Old Master Ouyang said with a frown.
He ventured deep into the Ouyang family compound.
He came out after a while.
"Don't worry, that person will personally intervene to stop Xiao Chen from going to the Prince's mansion and save his life..."
Ouyang Muxue finally smiled.
