Chapter 973 Truly Arrogant

Chapter 973 Truly Arrogant

After a brief moment of calm, the Wei family erupted in fury, immediately summoning their men from Qiubai Pavilion to surround the room.

"Little mustache, you killed our Boss Lu. We brothers are righteous people and won't bring trouble on your ancestors for eighteen generations. Tell me, will you die on your own, or will we do it?"

The veins on Lu Laoda's men's faces were bulging. Yingcheng was the territory of the Wei family. The Prince of Zhenbei only brought tens of thousands of men, yet he dared to let his men provoke him and challenge the Wei family. Did he have a death wish?

That's right, the Wei family wanted to win over the Prince of Zhenbei, a lucrative prize. However, when provoked, the Wei family had its own tough stance.

"Haha, I've been really bored lately, so I killed the Wei family's scoundrels to liven things up for the brothers."

Luo Wang stood up, clapped his hands, and laughed, "Have the Wei family members lost their minds? Don't they know their place? A scoundrel is a scoundrel. Do they think putting on a floral dress will turn them into a pretty girl?"

If you're not clear-headed, wash your brain with blood. You killed Boss Lu, so what? The soldiers under the Prince of Zhenbei aren't afraid of barbarians, so why would they be afraid of Wei's little minions?

"I only have one thing to say: don't think too highly of yourself."

The more arrogant the Prince of Luo was, the better. He could even say something as serious as, "To put it bluntly, even if I killed you all, the Wei family wouldn't utter a single word!"

"you……"

Boss Lu's men were all vicious thugs, used to bullying and oppressing others. They were already enraged, their eyes bloodshot, ready to fight to the death.

The Wei family cannot afford to lose this battle. Losing would mean the Wei family has lost control of Yingcheng and is handing it over to the Prince of Zhenbei.

"Oh, so you were pretending to like listening to Bai, but you were really just looking for trouble."

Lu's men weren't stupid. They finally realized what was going on and drew their swords, saying, "We, the Wei family, are never afraid of trouble! Brothers, kill them all, leave no one alive, avenge our boss, and do the Wei family a great service!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Wei family rushed forward and confronted Luo Wang's men.

Luo Wang calmly joined the battle, dodging every time his opponent got close, just a hair's breadth away.

The Prince of Luo teased the Wei family like a cat toying with a mouse, driving them to the brink of a deadly confrontation.

The situation was chaotic, and the Wei family's men, with their rudimentary skills, were no match for King Luo and his men. They gradually cornered their opponents, who died in despair.

Some of the smarter members of the Wei family immediately took advantage of the chaos to run out and deliver a message. The Prince of Luo was very pleased to see this, as he was waiting for things to escalate.

Qiu Bai Pavilion was thrown into chaos, and the Wei family's garrison received the news and was on its way to Qiu Bai Pavilion.

Inside the room, the servant hid under the table and said in a tearful voice, "Young Master Bai, everyone says that beautiful women are a source of trouble, and it can be quite terrifying when men fight over a woman."

The servant even harbored some resentment towards Xu Da. If it weren't for this troublemaker, the Wei family and the Prince of Zhenbei would have lived in peace, and he wouldn't have been implicated.

Xu Da remained silent. He had been cheated out of a thousand taels of silver by the Wei family gambling house and then sent to Qiubai Pavilion to suffer. Who could he turn to for justice?

Even in death, Lu Laoda could not heal the wounds in Xu Da's heart.

He knocked out the rambling servant, disguised himself, and slipped out of the room, where he ran into the culprit, Prince Luo.

"Now is not the time to settle scores."

Luo Wang coughed twice and changed the subject, saying, "Our people have fled towards the direction of the Prince of Zhenbei's villa. The Wei family will definitely pursue us relentlessly. Rescuing Lin Yatou in the chaos is our top priority."

"Okay, I know that."

Xu Da understood the King of Luo's methods. He would keep accounts first and handle serious matters properly, knowing that having accounts meant he wasn't afraid to keep track of them.

“The male brothel madam at Qiubai Pavilion has quite a few valuable treasures. She takes every penny she gets, so I have to ask for some compensation for my emotional distress.”

Taking advantage of the chaos, Xu Dala and Luo Wang worked together as a triad, determined to at least recoup the thousand taels of silver they had paid.

After robbing the money, the two went straight to the Prince's villa to meet Lin Yuesha.

At this moment, the area outside the Prince's Mansion villa was already in an uproar.

Lu Laoda's men were either killed or wounded. Someone sent a message to the Wei family, which enraged the Wei family's men, who then led 20,000 troops to surround the Zhenbei Wang Villa.

Originally, the Wei family and the Prince of Zhenbei were on good terms and discussing a joint operation. However, the Prince of Zhenbei was unwilling to send people to search for Yuwen Kun, which aroused the suspicion of the Wei family.

If the Prince of Zhenbei were to collude with the enemy and betray the country, and have dealings with Yuwen Kun, and secretly plot against the Wei family, the Wei family would not be able to withstand the consequences.

If the Prince of Zhenbei had no ulterior motives, how could Yuwen Kun have appeared in Yingcheng by such a coincidence?

The Wei family was extremely dissatisfied with the Prince of Zhenbei's passive attitude, and the killing of Boss Lu was a further slap in the face, causing the Wei family to lose all face.

"What is the meaning of your surrounding the Prince's mansion villa so late at night?"

The Prince of Zhenbei's men showed no weakness and stepped forward to question him.

The prince has given the order: any of the Prince Luo's lackeys who come to cause trouble tonight must be wiped out without exception.

A group of people did indeed arrive, but they were not the Prince of Luo's men; they were members of the Wei family. This puzzled the guards at the Prince of Zhenbei's villa.

“You all know the truth, so why pretend? Call your prince out and give an answer!”

Satellite waved to his subordinates, still retaining a sliver of reason. He wanted to explain things to the Prince of Zhenbei, because he truly didn't want to believe that the Prince of Zhenbei was so bold as to make no attempt to conceal his ambition.

If it's a misunderstanding, just explain it clearly.

Lu Laoda is just a lackey, his life is worthless. The reason Wei Xing brought people to demand an explanation is to protect the Wei family's reputation.

"Who do you think you are? Do you think you can just see our prince whenever you want?"

The guard smiled dismissively, making no intention of announcing the news.

At this hour, the prince was in high spirits, and if they were disturbed, they would all be punished with a beating.

The guard did not recognize the satellite and did not consider the person in front of him to be an important figure.

"How arrogant!"

Satellite sneered. The fact that the Prince of Zhenbei's men wouldn't even report it meant that Xiao Su had already given instructions. It seems that Boss Lu's men weren't exaggerating; Xiao Su wanted to openly oppose the Wei family!

This is Yingcheng, not Beidifu City. The Prince of Zhenbei dares to challenge the Wei family with tens of thousands of men!

"So what if you're arrogant? If you know what's good for you, get lost and don't disturb our prince's good time!"

Who are the Wei family trying to impress with such a big show? If these people don't get out, what if the Prince of Luo's men realize the time isn't right and don't come?

With the King of Luo's men eliminated, and with favorable timing, location, and popular support, there has never been a better opportunity than today.

"Bah! I've seen what 'the guilty party accuses first' really means. Xiao Su has become a coward, so let's beat him until he comes out!"

Satellite had a bad temper and was extremely arrogant. After being ignored time and time again, he finally lost his temper and ordered his men to break down the door.

The enemy acted swiftly, and some were killed or wounded immediately. The guards of the Prince of Zhenbei were stunned for a few seconds, then suddenly realized what had happened and shouted, "Brothers, we've been tricked! These people aren't from the Wei family, but are Luo Wang's men in disguise! Kill them all!"
