96: Chapter 96: Capture Him for Me 96: Chapter 96: Capture Him for Me Not long after Huang Xiaolong had killed the fierce bandit leader, the ground trembled violently, followed by the sound of horses and the rapid approach of heavy troops.
It seemed that the border guards of the Luotong Kingdom had arrived.
Just like back on Earth, the police always arrived after everything had ended.
Soon, a military force of over a thousand men appeared in Huang Xiaolong and the others’ line of sight.
These soldiers and officers arrived at the square, their faces changing as they saw the bodies of the small town’s residents and bandits littering the ground.
Although the specifics of the incident were unclear, everyone had a rough idea of what had happened.
“General Qin, look, that one, it seems to be Ning Fei from the Ningwu Family, brother of Ningwu Clan Leader King Ning,” a deputy suddenly pointed to the bandit leader’s body and said to General Qin Shi.
Qin Shi looked over and recognized the bandit leader’s body, his brows furrowing.
Indeed, it was Ning Fei, who had committed crimes on the border not long before but managed to escape last time, so Qin Shi recognized him.
“General Qin, it’s Ning Fei who’s dead, this might be troublesome to handle.
King Ning will surely pressure us through the Dragon Country King to hand over the murderer,” the deputy said, continuing, “What do you think?”
Qin Shi nodded, if it were a common person who died, it wouldn’t matter, but now that Ning Fei was dead, things were indeed troublesome.
“Who killed him?” Qin Shi pointed to the bandit leader and demanded.
“I killed him,” Huang Xiaolong said indifferently.
“Take him down!” Qin Shi waved his hand, commanding the soldiers behind him.
“Yes, General!”
The soldiers surrounded them.
“Wait!
How dare you!” Chen Feirong yelled furiously, as she and the surrounding Star Sky Academy students closed in to protectively surround Huang Xiaolong, glaring angrily at Qin Shi and his men.
Huang Xiaolong smiled coldly and calmly said to Qin Shi, “According to the kingdom’s laws, anyone who kills border bandits should be rewarded for their deeds.
Now I’m curious, not only are you not rewarding me, but why are you trying to capture me instead?”
Qin Shi was at a loss for words.
“Impudent, brat, you commit murder and yet you talk of rewards?” Before Qin Shi could speak, the deputy scolded Huang Xiaolong, “Come on, take him down!”
However, before the soldiers could get close, they were sent flying by Chen Feirong and two Tenth Order experts with her.
“You, you dare to rebel?!” Seeing Chen Feirong and the others take action, the deputy was furious and pinned the crime of rebellion on them.
“What audacity!” At that moment, a voice rang out.
“Who?
Show yourself!” The deputy barked.
The crowd parted, and a person walked out; it was Prince Lu Kai.
Qin Shi recognized Lu Kai’s face and his expression changed dramatically.
However, the deputy obviously did not recognize Lu Kai.
As Lu Kai stepped forward, the deputy ordered, “Take him down as well!”
“Stop!” Qin Shi shouted urgently.
As the deputy and the soldiers looked on in shock, he quickly dismounted and approached Lu Kai, bowing respectfully, “Qin Shi greets His Highness, Prince Lu Kai!”
His Highness, the Prince!
The deputy and the soldiers were stunned, then hurriedly dismounted, kneeling down, “We pay our respects to His Highness, the Prince!”
The deputy’s head was bowed so low that beads of cold sweat dripped from his forehead.
“Get up, you kneel down!” Lu Kai allowed Qin Shi and the others to rise but pointed at the deputy, insistently keeping him on his knees.
Once Qin Shi and the others stood up, Prince Lu Kai looked at the deputy and sneered, “You said, you want to capture me?”
The deputy’s forehead broke out in bigger beads of sweat as he frantically kowtowed, “I did not recognize Your Highness, the Prince, please forgive me!”
Then Lu Kai continued, “You just said, we were rebelling?”
The deputy’s face turned deathly pale, not knowing how to answer, and at that moment, he wished for death.
At this moment, Prince Lu Kai turned his head to look at Qin Shi, making Qin Shi’s heart panic.
“You want to capture him, do you know who he is?” Prince Lu Kai said coldly to Qin Shi, glancing at Huang Xiaolong, causing Qin Shi to involuntarily look towards Huang Xiaolong.
“You are Huang Xiaolong!” Prince Lu Kai said.
“What?
Huang Xiaolong!”
“He is Huang Xiaolong!”
Qin Shi, the deputy general, and the many soldiers all suddenly looked towards Huang Xiaolong in astonishment.
Huang Xiaolong, a Twelfth Level Peak, the Ancient Divine Dragon, possessing the Black Dragon Martial Soul!
The number one talent of Luotong Kingdom!
By now, his fame had spread throughout the Luotong Kingdom; from the commoners to the generals to the dukes, who didn’t know, who wasn’t aware?
Even the neighboring countries’ major powers had heard about such a monstrous genius emerging from Luotong Kingdom.
Cold sweat seeped from Qin Shi’s forehead.
He knew of the deep relationship between Huang Xiaolong and Marshal Haotian, and the deputy general’s face was ashen with despair.
He had been ready to face death, but now, even the desire to die had left him.
“I will report this matter to my father,” Prince Lu Kai continued.
Qin Shi and the deputy general’s bodies shook violently.
Long after Huang Xiaolong and the others left, Qin Shi, the deputy general, and their men remained motionless.
After leaving the town, Huang Xiaolong and his group did not return to Lutong Royal City but instead continued to other villages on the border.
One month later, Huang Xiaolong and his companions hurried back to Lutong Royal City.
As for the wager between Prince Lu Kai and Huang Xiaolong, naturally, Huang Xiaolong had won.
Shortly after returning to Lutong Royal City, the rewards for Huang Xiaolong and his group’s success in subduing the bandits came from the Kingdom.
Calculating one hundred Gold Coins for each bandit, Huang Xiaolong received a total of over a hundred thousand Gold Coins.
Not long after, Qin Shi was demoted to deputy general, and the order to strip the deputy general of his military rank was also issued.
When Huang Xiaolong arrived at the Heavenly Mystical Mansion, his parents, sister, and younger brother were there—with Li Lu also present.
That night, the Heavenly Mystical Mansion held a banquet to celebrate Huang Xiaolong’s successful promotion assessment.
The banquet was lively, with Huang Min and Huang Xiaohai causing a ruckus together.
After the banquet ended and everyone had left, only Huang Xiaolong, Marshal Haotian, and Fei Hou remained in the hall.
“In these two months, has anyone from the Great Sword Sect appeared?” Huang Xiaolong asked.
“Reporting to Sect Leader, no,” Marshal Haotian replied.
“However, I have found out that the Great Sword Sect will hold their Sect Leader selection ceremony next month.”
“Sect Leader selection ceremony?” Huang Xiaolong mused.
“Who is set to succeed as the next Sect Leader of the Great Sword Sect?”
“It’s Junior Brother Liu Wei’s disciple, Lin Zhiren.
His strength is at the Late Stage Tenth Rank Peak, but this Lin Zhiren has notable talent.
There’s hope for him to break through to Innate within ten years,” Fei Hou answered.
Huang Xiaolong nodded then instructed Marshal Haotian and Fei Hou to closely monitor the movements and situation of the Great Sword Sect.
“Rest assured, Sect Leader,” the two said respectfully.
Afterwards, Huang Xiaolong took out twenty Flame Dragon Pearls from the Exquisite Treasure Tower, giving ten to each of them, instructing them to consume and cultivate with them.
When they realized that what Huang Xiaolong had given them were Flame Dragon Pearls birthed by the exotic Exquisite Treasure Tower, natural wonders of Heaven and Earth, they were endlessly grateful.
After the two left, Huang Xiaolong went to his parents’ room and spoke about his plans to head to the Silver Moon Forest for cultivation in a couple of days, giving them sixty Flame Dragon Pearls.
Returning to his own room, Huang Xiaolong continued to practice the Asura Technique.
From subduing the fierce bandits over these two months, he had already broken through to the Seventh-stage Middle Stage.
Huang Xiaolong entered the Exquisite Treasure Tower, swallowed a Flame Dragon Pearl, circulated the Asura Technique, and his Double Dragon Martial Soul incessantly devoured the ethereal Nine Netherworld Dark Energy.
