Chapter 74: Fury
Snap—
"Say it again, what happened to Xue Beng!"
The gorgeous tea set was thrown heavily to the ground. Prince Xue Xing stood up suddenly, his old face full of wrinkles and veins bulging, looking terrifying and hideous.
The armored guard buried his head in the carpet in the hall, not daring to look Prince Xue Xing in the eye.
"His Highness Xue Beng was attacked by Taino from the Power Clan on Brilliant Street and died instantly."
"Manager Niu Shan arrived immediately but was unable to save His Highness Xue Beng. The murderer Taino was apprehended on the spot and is currently being held in the Brilliant Street Jail."
After repeatedly confirming the news of Xue Beng's death with the guards, Prince Xue Xing finally faced the facts.
At this time, Prince Xue Xing was no longer angry, his expression was no longer ferocious, and he collapsed powerlessly on the sofa.
With his help, his nephew disguised himself as an incompetent prince and a dandy young man. Even Xue Qinghe couldn't see through it and let him do what he wanted.
But Prince Xue Xing never expected that Xue Beng did not die in the royal family's struggle but died in a place of pleasure.
This was really ridiculous to Prince Xue Xing, who laughed at the fact that he could witness such a joke at his age.
There was a silence.
The guard lay on the ground for a long time and finally couldn't help asking, "Prince, what should we do next? Should we surround the Power Clan?"
After hearing the guard's question, Prince Xue Xing finally came to his senses from his state of doubting reality.
The Power Clan? Yes! The Power Clan!
When the guard reminded him, Prince Xue Xing's anger rose again.
But this time he acted very calmly and spoke to the guards kneeling on the ground.
"Go find someone to inform His Majesty Bilin. Tell him that I want to discuss something with him at the gate of the Power Clan. It's a big favor to repay."
Prince Xue Xing muttered to himself as he watched the guards quickly leave.
"My dear nephew, walk slowly. I'll let Titan accompany you. It's worth it to have a Contra to die with you."
As he spoke, Prince Xue Xing also walked outside.

Dugu Mansion.
At this time, Dugu Bo was the only one in the Dugu Mansion, drinking and admiring the moon in the inner courtyard.
Since he was detoxified, he no longer needed to go to the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire from time to time.
Apart from routine practice, he spent the whole day either drinking and appreciating flowers in the mansion or going to Ye Renxin to drink and appreciate flowers. His life was so comfortable.
In fact, it was mainly because the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire had been transformed into a training place for Mu Ci, Dugu Yan, and others, and as an elder, he did not want to disturb the relationship between the younger generations.
Just enjoy life at home. He had suffered for decades, so what was wrong with enjoying himself a little?
At this time, the butler came over quickly and said to Dugu Bo, "Master, Prince Xue Xing sent a message asking you to go to the gate of the Power Clan to discuss something."
Dugu Bo's leisurely demeanor as he drank his wine disappeared. He frowned and looked at the butler and asked, "Did you say anything?"
Mu Ci was now very close to Xue Qinghe, and it was really inconvenient for him to have any dealings with Prince Xue Xing anymore.
But since Dugu Bo still owed someone a favor, some things were really hard to settle.
"The person who came didn't explain the specific circumstances, only that it was a major matter of repaying a favor."
When Dugu Bo heard that it was a matter of repaying a favor, he immediately stood up from the recliner, his expression both solemn and somewhat relieved.
The solemnity was because unless it was a big deal, Prince Xue Xing would never use this favor. The relief was that this favor was finally repaid.
Dugu Bo thought to himself: I hope that Xue Xing, you old fellow, have some brains and don't put me in a dilemma, otherwise I won't repay this favor.
He knew a little about Prince Xue Xing and Xue Beng, but he didn't care and didn't want to get involved before.
But now he just hoped that Xue Qinghe would not be involved, because if that happened, he really couldn't help.
"Are you sure the person who came here is talking about the gate of the Power Clan?"
He confirmed the location with the butler again and got a positive answer.
Dugu Bo's soul power burst out, and he soared into the sky under the impetus of his soul power, flying hundreds of meters in the sky straight towards the direction of the Power Clan's residence.
Although Tiandou City was huge, it only took a moment to reach it considering the speed of a Titled Douluo.
However, when Dugu Bo landed, he discovered that the entire Power Clan's base had been surrounded by thousands of armored soldiers.
There were also some Soul Saint-level royal priests he knew present, looking ready for battle.
Not only was Prince Xue Xing present, but also Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, who had been very busy recently, was present.
Dugu Bo landed on the ground with a puzzled look on his face and said to the two people with the highest status present.
"What's going on today? How come the Power Clan is surrounded, and you two are even able to be present?"
Xue Qinghe's face was solemn, but he didn't show much grief over Xue Beng's death.
After all, Xue Beng had always been avoiding Xue Qinghe, and there was indeed not much communication between the two. Even if he was pretending, he couldn't pretend too much.
It was enough to show a little anger about a royal family member being attacked and killed in the street.
"Let your uncle explain this matter to Your Majesty. I don't know everything."
Xue Qinghe looked at Dugu Bo with a serious expression and pointed at Prince Xue Xing, who had an even gloomier expression than him.
Prince Xue Xing glanced at Xue Qinghe out of the corner of his eye.
Although what happened today had nothing to do with Xue Qinghe, the person in front of him had a criminal record after all, so he couldn't help but glance at him subconsciously.
But now Xue Beng was dead, and there was no point in saying anything. Prince Xue Xing did not intend to argue with Xue Qinghe about this matter anymore.
"Your Majesty, Xue Beng was attacked and killed by Taino from the Power Clan on Brilliant Street. I would like to offer a favor in exchange for the life of Titan, the leader of the Power Clan, to help my nephew."
Dugu Bo was also a little frightened by Prince Xue Xing's words.
Someone actually attacked and killed the prince in the street in the imperial city. This was too bold.
However, Dugu Bo did not take this matter to heart. It was just Xue Beng. If someone died, they died.
"Okay, that's just Titan. I agree to this. After today, all favors are canceled."
Hercules Titan, if it were Dugu Bo before he was detoxified, he might still be a little afraid of him.
After all, the four affiliated families of the Clear Sky Sect all followed the extreme flow, and all spirit rings were added in one direction.
The Power Clan followed the pure power route. In this respect alone, they were definitely not inferior to any Titled Douluo of the Strong Attack System below level 93.
However, for Dugu Bo now, a small Titan was not difficult to capture.
At this moment, the movement outside finally woke up the practicing Titan.
The gate of the base was opened from the inside with a bang.
Titan looked at the soldiers in armor at the door and the priests outside the royal carriage, his face darkened, and he spoke.
"I don't know what the Power Clan has done wrong, but I need to send out the army to surround their garrison."
"Please ask the person in charge to come out and explain it to me."
