Chapter 925 The Great General Xiahou

“Oh, My God! This is the Great General Xiahou Hongxiang, the Lord of Golden Horse City!”
“Who is this Qin Haodong? It seems that he has angered Lord Xiahou. He’s doomed…”
“He really doesn’t know his place. He actually dared to offend the Great General Xiahou in the region of Golden Horse City. Is he crazy?”
The crowd began discussing among themselves. They looked left and right to find out who the person Xiahou Hongxiang was looking for was.
Qin Haodong stood behind the crowd and looked at Xiahou Hongxiang, who was high up in the sky. Although this guy was at the middle stage of the Combination Realm, as long as he summoned the Three-legged Golden Toad, it could still kill him with one strike.
However, it seemed that Xiahou Hongxiang had brought at least tens of millions of soldiers here. In front of the army, this was not something that an individual could fight against.
The Little Witch said, “This old bastard actually came to find us so quickly. If we returned to the Tortoise Academy, then we wouldn’t need to pay any attention to him at all.”
Murong Jinghong said worriedly, “What should we do now? What about killing our way out together?”
Qin Haodong said, “Don’t act rashly at the moment. Let’s wait and see.”
However, at this moment, someone suddenly shouted, “General Xiahou, that guy is Qin Haodong!”
With the shout, a figure came to Xiahou Hongxiang and pointed to the place where Qin Haodong was. It was Xue Pan, who was injured and had fled the scene earlier.
Xiahou Hongxiang looked in the direction that he was pointing. When the others saw Great General Xiahou looking in their direction, they immediately scattered to the sides.
Within a hundred meters of Qin Haodong, an uninhabited area was instantly formed. Only the six of them were standing there.
Yun Qianqian snapped, “Xue Pan, are you still human? How dare you betray your classmate!”
Xue Pan gnashed his teeth and said, “I don’t care who he is. Qin Haodong must die today.”
After he and Xiao Yulong had escaped from the pagoda that day, they had gone directly to Golden Horse City in order to take revenge. They told Xiahou Hongxiang that Qin Haodong had killed Xiahou Hongfei and Xiahou Zhen.
Xiahou Hongxiang was extremely angry. Someone actually dared to kill his brother and nephew in Golden Horse City. This was akin to a slap in his face. He immediately led his troops to surround the entire Pagoda Mountain.
Xiao Yulong had lost an arm and was seriously injured, so he stayed in Golden Horse City to recuperate. Xue Pan followed Xiahou Hongxiang to identify the murderer.
He knew very well that Xiahou Hongxiang was extremely cruel. He wanted to see how Qin Haodong would be tortured to death with his own eyes.
Xiahou Hongxiang took a few steps in the air and came to the front of the crowd. He looked at Qin Haodong with a murderous look and said, “Brat, who gave you the courage to touch the members of the Xiahou Family?”
Xue Pan standing nearby also shouted, “Qin Haodong, aren’t you arrogant? Now that the Great General Xiahou is here, what else is there to say? Quickly kneel down and admit your guilt. Then, General Xiahou will leave your body intact.”
“Oh, My God! Who the hell is this boy? How dare he hurt the members of the Xiahou Family? Isn’t he tired of living?”
“He killed General Xiahou’s brother and nephew within the jurisdiction of Golden Horse City. How did such a brainless person live until now?”
“No wonder Great General Xiahou is so angry. This boy is doomed…”
Hearing the discussion around her, the Little Witch said angrily, “Xue Pan, you’re so shameless!”
Xue Pan sneered. “Still so stubborn when you’re going to die. Nobody won’t be able to save Qin Haodong today.”
Xiahou Hongxiang waved his hand at the army behind him. “Kill this entire group of people!”
Although it was Qin Haodong who killed Xiahou Hongfei and Xiahou Zhen, he didn’t care so much. In the eyes of the Great General, the others were nonentities. He could kill them with a wave of his hand.
“Yes, General!”
After a loud shout, hundreds of archers quickly gathered together. They raised the bows in their hands and aimed at the six people.
What these people used were not the ordinary bows on the earth but the God-killing Arrows that were specifically used to deal with cultivation artists.
If all the arrows were shot at the same time, even the Strong at the stage of the Combination Realm could only run as far as he could.
Right at this moment, a clear and cold voice suddenly rang out, “Xiahou Hongxiang, who gave you the courage to disrespect me?”
Although Zhao Xingyue’s previous cowardly personality was gone, she was still used to holding Qin Haodong’s arm and standing behind him.
At this time, she stepped forward and faced Xiahou Hongxiang head-on. Her whole body exuded a noble and majestic royal aura.
Xiahou Hongxiang looked in the direction of the voice. After he saw Zhao Xingyue’s face clearly, his expression changed greatly. He shouted sharply, “Stop! Stop, all of you!”
In the eyes of the people, Qin Haodong and the others were doomed. However, at this time, Xiahou Hongxiang’s reaction greatly surprised everyone. Who the hell was she? She even could make the Great General Xiahou suddenly change his mind.
Xiahou Hongfei and Xiahou Zhen were both people without official positions, so they did not have the qualifications to enter Tortoise City. They naturally did not know who Zhao Xingyue was.
But Xiahou Hongxiang was different. Golden Horse City was the second-largest city in Tortoise Kingdom. As the Lord of this city, he had frequent access to the palace, so it was impossible for him not to know Princess Xingyue.
He was Queen Wu Yueniang’s man, but he still didn’t dare to shoot a royal Princess in front of so many people, even if he had a hundred guts.
After withdrawing the archers, he quickly stepped forward and bowed respectfully. “Xiahou Hongxiang greets Princess Xingyue.”
“Princess Xingyue! Oh, My God! This girl is actually Princess Xingyue?!”
“Why did Princess Xingyue suddenly come to Pagoda Mountain instead of staying in the palace?”
“Princess Xingyue is so beautiful and regal. No wonder General Xiahou stopped his order. She is the King’s favorite daughter.”
Xue Pan was even more stunned as a chill ran down his spine. He never would’ve thought that the trash in their eyes would be Princess Xingyue of Tortoise Kingdom.
Zhao Xingyue did not allow Xiahou Hongxiang to stand up. Instead, she sternly said, “As the Lord of Golden Horse City, you are besieging me with your army, what is the meaning of this? Are you trying to rebel?”
Cold sweat broke out on Xiahou Hongxiang’s forehead. In the past, this Princess was as timid as a hare. Moreover, she was not good with words. Why was she completely different today? She even said that he was plotting a rebellion.
He quickly knelt on the ground and said, “Your Highness, please spare my life. I really didn’t know that you were here. Otherwise, I wouldn’t dare to offend you even if I have ten thousand guts.”
Princess Xingyue clearly did not want to let this go. She asked once more, “What did you mean by having your soldiers aim arrows at me earlier?”
Xiahou Hongxiang said, “Your Highness, you don’t know that just a few days ago, Qin Haodong killed my brother Xiahou Hongfei and my nephew Xiahou Zhen. I’m here for him.”
“I know about this. I was at the scene and witnessed the entire process,” Princess Xingyue said.
Xiahou Hongxiang heaved a sigh of relief and stated, “In that case, Princess Xingyue, please leave this murderer at my disposal.”
“The one who killed your brother and nephew is the murderer? I asked him to do so. Do you want to kill me as well?”
Princess Xingyue said sternly, “Your nephew, Xiahou Zhen, wanted to kidnap me to be his 13th concubine. Shouldn’t such a person be killed?
“Your brother, Xiahou Hongfei, not only indulged his son to commit murder but also injured my friend and aided his son to do evil. Shouldn’t such a person be killed?”
Towards the end, Zhao Xingyue’s entire body began to exude a chilly killing intent. The momentum of imperial kinsmen was clearly visible.
“Something like this actually happened? He even wanted to kidnap the Princess and let her be his thirteenth concubine. This is simply a slap to the faces of Tortoise Kingdom’s royal family!”
“Take the Princess as his concubine. Such a person should not only be killed but should also be hacked into pieces…”
“As far as I know, according to the laws of Tortoise Kingdom, those who offend a member of the royal family will most likely have their nine clans executed…”
Hearing the discussions around him, Xiahou Hongxiang’s heart suddenly sank. He knew his nephew’s character very well. He had done countless things that bullied men and women.
But in the past, he was the god of Golden Horse City. No matter how much trouble Xiahou Zhen committed, he would not get in any big trouble. However, he never expected that this guy even coveted the Princess.
Xiahou Hongxiang had Wu Yueniang as his backing. Although he knew that this kind of thing would not implicate him, he still had to go through the necessary procedure in front of everyone. After all, this kind of thing involved the face of the entire Tortoise royal family.
He kept kowtowing to Princess Xingyue. “Your Highness, please forgive me. I really did not know. If I had known, I would have killed that brat on the spot!”
Zhao Xingyue continued, “When I came to Golden Horse City, I was firstly harassed by your nephew. Now you asked your soldiers to point arrows at me. I will report this matter truthfully to my father.”
Xiahou Hongxiang repeatedly said, “Your Highness, please forgive me! Your Highness, please spare my life! I truly did not know that you were here!”
Princess Xingyue had grown up in the Tortoise Palace. She was extremely smart and proficient in the way of control. It was just that she hadn’t dared to show it before.
Seeing that Xiahou Hongxiang was almost completely suppressed, her tone softened a little, “All right! Since you know nothing about this matter, get up now.”
“Thank you, Your Highness.”
Only then did Xiahou Hongxiang crawl up from the ground.
Princess Xingyue asked, “Do you have money?”
Xiahou Hongxiang replied, “Your Highness, I came out in a hurry and only brought some pocket money with me. It’s about twenty thousand top-level Spirit Stones.”
Then he took out a bag of Spirit Stones from his Storage Ring and handed it over respectfully.
Princess Xingyue took the Spirit Stones and turned to Qin Haodong and said, “Big Brother Qin, you killed Xiahou Hongfei and Xiahou Zhen in order to protect me. Not only are you innocent, but you have also done a good job. These Spirit Stones are your reward.”
Qin Haodong smiled slightly. It seemed that it was really good to have a Princess as his backing.
He knew what the 20,000 top-level Spirit Stones represented was not just simply money but also meant what he did was right.
The Princess had already admitted that he had done a good job in this regard, so there was no way the others would be able to find fault with him. Thus, he received the Spirit Stones and said, “Thank you, Your Highness!”
Xiahou Hongxiang lowered his head. Although he still seemed extremely respectful, a hint of killing intent flashed through his eyes.
The guy in front of him had killed his brother and nephew but he had to give his money to him as a reward. It was a great shame for him.
Xue Pan was standing on the side and completely dumbfounded. He thought that Qin Haodong would definitely die if he invited a General to help him.
However, he didn’t expect that Qin Haodong would have the Princess as his backer. His side was at a complete disadvantage. Not only did Qin Haodong not lose anything, but he also got 20,000 top-level Spirit Stones for nothing.
He knew that what he planned would not take place today, so it would be better to leave before everyone’s attention was diverted to him.
Just as he was about to sneak away, he heard Princess Xingyue yell in a stern voice, “Stop right there!”
Xue Pan shivered in fear and quickly stopped. He turned around and said fawningly, “Your Highness, I really didn’t know it was you. I offended you before. Please forgive me!”
Zhao Xingyue said to Xiahou Hongxian, “This man tried to attack me in the Seven Storeys Pagoda. If it weren’t for my friend’s protection, I would have been killed by him. How do you think I should deal with him?”
Hearing this, Xue Pan fell to his knees and pleaded, “Your Highness, I really didn’t know your identity before. Please forgive me this time on account of the fact that we used to be classmates!”
