Chapter 55: It’s This Prince’s Turn to Perform

Xiao Ce’s voice was very loud.

It attracted the attention of many people nearby.

It frightened Qian Lai: “Young Master, be careful with your words… be careful…”

Xiao Ce said to Qian Lai: “Don’t be afraid.”

At that moment, after Mosi Ashina sat down inside the hall, he took on a superior posture and said to Bao An: “General Bao, where is your newlywed wife?”

Bao An quickly called his wife over from the side.

“Your Highness Khan’s Son, this is her.”

After Mosi Ashina looked at Bao An’s twentieth concubine, his eyes noticeably brightened.

“General Bao, you are not honest. You said you would send all the beauties to us. Yet you keep such a beautiful woman hidden for yourself!”

As he spoke, Mosi Ashina waved his hand toward the woman standing next to Bao An: “Come over, let me have a look.”

Bao An smiled apologetically and said: “Your Highness Khan’s Son, you are joking. The girls I offered as tribute to you were all carefully selected by me.”

After saying that, he gestured for his concubine to step forward.

After the girl stepped forward, Mosi Ashina looked at her without hiding his gaze.

Then, he directly reached out with his hands.

“Your Highness Khan’s Son, if you like her, I will send her to you tonight…”

After hearing this, Mosi Ashina pinched Bao An’s concubine’s buttocks a few times.

Then he said: “General Bao, you really like to joke. This is your concubine.”

Bao An nodded and said with a smile: “Your Highness Khan’s Son, anything you like, I am willing to offer to you!”

Mosi Ashina laughed heartily after hearing this: “General Bao, I will definitely convey your sincerity! Today I am a guest, here to give you my blessings. Pay no mind to me, you continue! You continue!”

Bao An nodded with a smile.

Outside, Xiao Ce felt disgusted listening to this, and saw Da Lei approaching.

He waved to Da Lei, who then came closer.

“Da Lei, how is it going? Any news from outside?”

Da Lei nodded and said: “Prince, just now Fu Niu returned. Everything is ready. We are just waiting for our signal! General Yan Jia said that twenty minutes after the signal, we can control the situation.”

After hearing this, Xiao Ce nodded in satisfaction and said: “Why didn’t you say so earlier? Damn it, letting that spineless dog Bao An disgust me for so long.”

Da Lei said to Xiao Ce: “Prince, I also just received the news. I was just about to tell you.”

“Alright! Then you get ready. This Prince is going to perform. When I enter the hall, you fire the Flaming Arrow.”

Xiao Ce spoke while looking toward the inside of the hall.

Da Lei nodded.

At that moment, the hall entered another boring treasure-presenting session!

Moreover, whenever someone presented a treasure, Mosi Ashina would show interest.

If Mosi Ashina was interested in something, Bao An wouldn’t dare make a sound and would offer it with both hands.

Mosi Ashina was not polite; he took everything that was offered.

Xiao Ce shouted from beside a big tree: “Mosi Ashina! This is not right. These are gifts from all of us for General Bao! Also, can you uncivilized barbarians even use the treasures of our Great Xiao Kingdom?”

“There’s a saying in our Great Xiao Kingdom: a wild boar can’t eat fine grains!”

As soon as Xiao Ce’s voice rang out.

Everyone’s eyes turned toward Xiao Ce, and they immediately began to whisper.

“Who is that man? Is he crazy… daring to openly insult the Turks?”

“He seems to be from the Qian Clan Trading House?”

“Qian Clan Trading House? The people from that trading house in the Central Plains? Are they crazy? Do they not want to live?”

“Exactly… but, to be honest, he said what I was thinking.”

“Enough, keep your voice down. Don’t want to live… looking for death?”

…

Hearing Xiao Ce’s words, Mosi Ashina looked toward the outside of the hall.

However, looking from the bright area into the dark, he couldn’t see anything clearly.

Mosi Ashina looked at Bao An: “General Bao, what is the meaning of this.”

Hearing this, Bao An quickly said with an unpleasant expression: “Your Highness Khan’s Son, please don’t worry… some reckless fool… I will go and have him beheaded right now…”

With that, Bao An walked grumbling to the entrance and shouted: “Who! Who dares to insult His Highness the Khan’s Son? Watch as this General skins you alive and pulls out your tendons!”

At that moment, seeing Xiao Ce take action.

The Twelve Fiends appeared from various dark places.

“Bao An, you really have ambition. You don’t even dare make a sound in front of those Turkic barbarians! Yet you show off your power in front of your own people! How dare you! If I were you, I’d drown myself in a latrine!”

While cursing, Xiao Ce told Da Lei to prepare the big gift he had for Bao An.

Bao An ran to the hall entrance, frowned slightly and looked toward Xiao Ce, but still couldn’t see clearly: “Where did this madman come from… you must be tired of living!”

“Who… Steward Diao, who is that! Go and capture him for me.”

At this moment, although Steward Diao couldn’t see clearly who it was, he guessed based on the location.

“General, it’s someone from the Qian Clan Trading House…”

With that, Steward Diao shouted loudly: “Guards, capture that guy!”

After Steward Diao shouted, no one answered.

The Twelve Fiends had not been idle earlier; they had quietly taken out dozens of guards inside the hall.

“Bao An, I came to congratulate you? And you want to capture me? First, take a look at the big gift I brought for you.”

After saying this, Xiao Ce nodded to Da Lei.

Da Lei then threw over the head of Cai Wu, which had been pickled in salt for a long time.

Right at that moment, a person behind Xiao Ce drew his bow, lit a Flaming Arrow, and shot it into the sky.

Bao An instinctively stepped back a few steps, just as Cai Wu’s head rolled to his feet.

Bao An glanced at it. Since a head changes shape after being cut off,

and it had been pickled in salt by Da Lei for a while, he didn’t recognize who it was.

But he recognized it as a human head.

Bao An instinctively retreated a few steps and shouted at Steward Diao: “Guards… guards… capture this man and chop him into mincemeat!”

Steward Diao also shouted for guards.

But still no one answered. They both started to panic.

Meanwhile, Xiao Ce walked over step by step, unhurried.

“Stop shouting. Your men have all been taken out by my people!”

“Bao An, how dare you! Do you know who I am, that you want to chop me into mincemeat?”

The people on both sides outside the hall looked at Xiao Ce and thought he looked extremely domineering.

Xiao Ce walked all the way to the entrance of the main hall.

“Bao An! Seeing This Prince, why haven’t you knelt to welcome me!”

Now Bao An saw Xiao Ce’s face clearly and felt as if struck by lightning.

“Xiao… Xiao… Xiao Ce! You… how… how are you here!”

Bao An looked at Xiao Ce with disbelief all over his face, instinctively rubbing his eyes.

He saw Xiao Ce standing in front of them for real.

Beside Bao An, Bao Cong now saw the head on the ground clearly.

“Fa… Father! This… this is Cai Wu’s head!”

Pointing at Xiao Ce, Bao Cong said: “You… you… you good-for-nothing! You killed Cai Wu!”

Before Xiao Ce could speak, Da Lei stepped forward directly: “Insulting the Prince means death!”

Seeing Da Lei charge forward, a Guard beside Bao Cong tried to block him but was met with a heavy punch straight to the face from Da Lei.

That Guard’s face instantly caved in, and with a thud, he fell stiffly to the ground, vomiting blood, his body twitching.

Seeing this, two personal Guards beside Bao An drew their swords and charged forward.

Night Cat appeared like a ghost beside one of them. A sharp dagger pierced through one Guard’s neck.

Fu Niu was even more domineering. He pulled out a long axe from his back and directly clashed with a Guard’s sword.

The big sword was knocked away directly, and the long axe cut the Guard in half at the waist, blood flowing everywhere.

The rest of the Twelve Fiends quickly positioned themselves protectively in front of Xiao Ce. In less than a minute, they dealt with more than ten Guards inside the hall.

Da Lei had already seized Bao Cong. His hands, like tiger’s claws, clamped onto Bao Cong’s neck.

Xiao Ce said to Da Lei: “Break his legs.”

“You dare… ah…”

Before Bao Cong could finish, Da Lei kicked Bao Cong’s knee joint.

The entire hall fell silent. A large part of the crowd hadn’t come to their senses yet.

Bao An pointed at Xiao Ce with a grim expression: “Xiao Ce, you… do you know whose turf this is? Don’t think that sneaking in…”

Xiao Ce burst out laughing: “I think being a dog for the Turks has made you lose your mind! Can’t you see the head of Cai Wu from Yanmen Pass is right here! This Prince did not come alone! What now? Still want to kill me? Listen to the shouting outside! Lingxiao City is already in This Prince’s hands. Can’t you see the situation?”

After saying that, Xiao Ce saw Mosi Ashina trying to hide with several Guards.

“Go and capture those Turkic dogs!”

Three of the Twelve Fiends nodded, cupped their fists in acknowledgment, and went forward.

Seeing three members of the Twelve Fiends approaching, Mosi Ashina said with a grim expression to the Guards beside him.

“Go… kill them!”

His six Guards drew their Scimitars and charged forward.

However, facing members of the Twelve Fiends, they didn’t last more than two moves before all died violently!

This terrified Mosi Ashina.

“Bao An! What are you doing? Stop him quickly! If anything happens to me, my Father Khan’s iron hooves will surely trample your lands!”

Already feeling extremely frustrated, Bao An had realized the situation from his brief moment of shock.

Because just before there had been sounds of fighting outside, but now a thunderous roar came from outside.

“King of Northern Desert, Long Live! King of Northern Desert, Long Live!”
