Before he could finish speaking, Zu'an stomped down, the sound of bones breaking mixed with the Qi Prince's pig-like screams, which shocked everyone present.
Chu Youzhao looked bewildered. Although she thought highly of her brother-in-law, the trouble he had caused this time was far too great.
Murong Qinghe looked at Zu An with the eyes of someone looking at a dead man. He had deliberately broken the knee of the Prince of Qi in front of a peak ninth-rank expert. He was beyond saving and could only wait to die.
The toothless old man in the distance gasped: "I originally thought he was the smooth-talking, shameless type, but I didn't expect him to be so tough. This kid is terrifying!"
The woman in the carriage frowned slightly, but ultimately said nothing.
Han Fengqiu trembled with rage: "How dare you, you brat!"
Han Fengqiu's anger level: +998 +998 +998...
Zu An looked at him calmly and said, "You have to pay the price for speaking carelessly. Here's what you said back to me. If you had said something nicer, I might have let him go. But you had to talk to me in that tone, as if you were afraid I wouldn't do anything to him. Sometimes I even have to wonder if you are a spy planted in the Prince Qi's mansion by other forces, deliberately trying to kill the prince."
Han Fengqiu's breath hitched. For a moment, he was genuinely flustered, fearing that the Prince of Qi might misunderstand him.
However, he quickly calmed down: "What a silver tongue! But in this world, words alone are useless!"
As soon as he finished speaking the word "de," the long sword at his waist was automatically drawn, and an incomparably sharp sword aura locked onto Zu An.
In that instant, Zuan felt goosebumps rise all over his body from the sharp sword energy, and he hurriedly raised the Tai'a sword to block in front of him.
With a loud bang, he was thrown back several feet, and blood seeped from the mouth of his hand.
Han Fengqiu was already standing beside the Prince of Qi, half-crouching to check on his condition: "Your Highness, are you alright?"
The Prince of Qi raised his finger with difficulty and pointed at Zu An, gritting his teeth as he said, "He won't die. First, break every bone in this kid's body. Don't leave a single intact one!"
He had never suffered such a serious injury or such humiliation in his life. He had only one thought in mind: to take revenge and make Zu'an regret ever being born.
"Alright!" Han Fengqiu stood up, his aura immediately locking onto Zu An, who was several feet away.
Zu An laughed and said, "Young Master, have you forgotten the oath you swore to Heaven? We are having a fair duel. If you use your family's power to retaliate, be careful you don't get struck by lightning."
Han Fengqiu frowned slightly. If such a vow had truly been made, he really wouldn't be able to make a move.
At this moment, the Prince of Qi pointed to the ice sculptures lying scattered to the side and said, "Who said I was using the power of the Prince of Qi's mansion to retaliate against you? It's just because you just killed so many government officers, which is a capital offense. Uncle Han is just arresting you according to the law."

I never expected that the monthly ticket rankings would be overtaken so soon after the last chapter was published. It was the same last month. Is it just that I'm so destined to be with the second-ranked character...?
