Chapter 430: “Xu Que”, the Devil
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Young Twelve was furious, but he could not fight back.
Throughout the years, he had always thought that he was quite a big bully. But in front of Xu Que, he felt like a nobody.
He would never have had the guts to kill someone in broad daylight like Xu Que had, unless they had done something really bad.
But Xu Que was able to kill anyone he had a quarrel with.
Young Twelve felt that he had been overshadowed. That was why he did not dare fight back.
As for the soldiers of the Imperial City, they were all silent and pretended that they had not seen Xu Que mock Young Twelve.
After all, they were facing three thousand soldiers…
In fact, they were the soldiers of the Imperial City. That was something they should be proud of. But compared with the soldiers of Snow City who had gone through real battles, they were basically security guards.
“Fine! I am not a real bully actually. Besides, the Water Empress is an acquaintance of mine…” Xu Que said.
He stopped poking at Young Twelve.
Young Twelve got relieved.
As long as the Water Empress is still here, he cannot possibly hurt me.
“For her sake, after you die, I will keep your body intact. You don’t need to worry about that. So, do you want to drink some poisonous liquid or would you rather hang yourself? Well, I’d personally prefer to kill you with my sword. Don’t worry, it will be quick, I can assure you that you will not feel any pain at all,” Xu Que said.
Hearing this, Young Twelve was shocked, as were the rest of the people.
“General Zhuge, please wait!” an old eunuch shouted, riding towards the crowd.
People quickly back away. The old eunuch jumped off the horse before the horse stopped and rushed into the crowd. “General Zhuge, please forgive him.”
“Who the hell are you?” Xu Que frowned.
The old eunuch took out a jade bamboo slip and handed it to Xu Que.
“The Princess of Zi Xuan asks me to bring this to you and hopes that you will let him go. Before the Water Empress left, she said that we have to protect our last male successor…”
A jade bamboo slip. Zi Xuan is really considerate.
Xu Que smiled and took the jade bamboo slip. “Really, there is no need to bring a gift to me.”
Everyone at present all held their breaths.
This young man is so cruel and unpredictable. How can he change moods so quickly?
However, his face turned gloomy when he found that the slip only bore a few words from Zi Xuan, not the magic inscriptions he wanted.
It read: ‘Xu Que, my sister made a promise to my late father that she would do anything to protect the last male successor. If you kill him, that would mean that my sister has failed to keep her promise! By the way, I have prepared the map of the Imperial Tombs for you, I think you might need it.’
“I really need to teach this young chick a lesson!” Xu Que huffed.
He had meant to kill this bully for good, as judging from the facial expressions of the citizens, he could tell that Young Twelve never did anything good.
But if I kill him, the Water Empress will be unhappy. I mean to please her, not upset her.
“Fine! I will not kill you! Do not worry!” Xu Que put away the slip and smiled at Young Twelve.
Young Twelve could not suppress his relief but he did not say anything. The soldiers of the Imperial City were very relieved.
“I am talking with you, why are you silent? Soldier, fetch my Italian cannon…”
“Thank you!” Young Twelve answered.
Xu Que happily nodded. “Good! We should celebrate this! Hang him and his male peers up on the city wall and poke their penises a hundred times!”
“What?”
Everyone at present was speechless.
Hanging them up and poking their penises?! Seriously?
Young Twelve and the young men in his gang were frightened. They never thought that they would be punished like this.
The rest of the young girls in his gang were frightened as well. They were very nervous and had no idea what punishment they would receive.
“Xu Que, you cannot do this!” Buttface said.
Young Twelve and his peers’ eyes sparkled. They thought the dog was pleading for them.
Buttface said, “If you do this, you would also be punishing the soldiers who are going to poke their penises. Who would want to do that? So I suggest that they poke each others’ penises. Just send some soldiers to supervise them.”
Hearing this, Young Twelve and his male gang members almost passed out.
Xu Que was amazed by his words and nodded. “Wow, that is a very good idea! Soldiers, hang them up. Anyone who dare to fight back shall be killed! By me!”
“Yes!”
Young Twelve and his male peers did not dare to complain and allowed the soldiers to hang them up. They knew that Xu Que was waiting for them to complain so he could use it as an excuse to kill them.
The soldiers and the old eunuch were all silent. The rest of the citizens around them all felt immensely happy.
Xu Que jumped on a horse and looked at the sky. “I am such a kind person! I have gotten rid of another bully for the people! Now, listen up, everyone!”
“Yes!” the soldiers shouted all together.
“Let’s go and loot the third Duke’s residence. I believe he has some sort of connections with these traitors. We must have a through investigation of his house!”
Thus they all marched towards the third Duke’s house, leaving the rest of the crowd lost in their confusion.
Seriously, you call yourself kind?!
“A wicked man will always meet someone who is more wicked than him!” a old man said.
Hearing this, all the people nodded.
They could tell that the Young Twelve was a big a*shole, but that General Zhuge was a real devil, a shameless devil!
