Chapter 926 - Entered the City (2/2)

“Don’t worry. Let’s take it one step at a time and act accordingly.”

Although Golden Horse City was Xiahou Hongxiang’s territory, Qin Haodong did not panic too much. That was because he still had a hidden card, the Seven Storeys Pagoda.

If he really had no other choice, he could directly teleport himself to the Seven Storeys Pagoda. Then, there was nothing the other party could do about it, no matter how powerful he was.

Golden Horse City was not too far from Pagoda Mountain. After the army advanced for half a day, a huge city slowly appeared before their eyes.

It was worthy of being the second-largest city in Tortoise Kingdom. From afar, Golden Horse City looked grand and majestic with no end in sight. It was bigger than any other ancient city on the earth.

After entering the city, Xiahou Hongxiang said to Zhao Xingyue, “Your Highness, I would have invited you to my Lord Mansion as a guest. Unfortunately, my family members are not well-mannered and are too noisy. I am afraid they will disturb you.

“I have a courtyard in Golden Horse City that is extremely quiet and elegant. It’s suitable for you to rest in. What do you think?”

Qin Haodong laughed in his heart. “Quiet and elegant? This guy just wants to find a suitable place to kill me.”

Zhao Xingyue didn’t think too much about it. She originally didn’t like noise, so she nodded and said, “Sure!”

Xiahou Hongxiang was delighted and led everyone directly to a manor on the west side of Golden Horse City. This manor was far away from the downtown area. It was indeed very quiet. Moreover, it had pavilions with carved beams and painted rafters and looked extremely luxurious.

“Your Highness, are you satisfied with this place?”

Zhao Xingyue said, “Not bad!”

“Your Highness, since you are satisfied, you can stay here for now. I will immediately dispatch someone to send news about you to the palace. I foresee that the King will send people to fetch you soon.”

Zhao Xingyue nodded. Although she didn’t want to go back yet, she had no choice under these circumstances. Xiahou Hongxiang would never let her go.

“It’s getting late. Your Highness, please have a break!” Xiahou Hongxiang turned around and said to Qin Haodong, “This is the residence of the Princess. It’s not suitable for men to enter. Please come to the nearby courtyard with me.”

Zhao Xingyue frowned and said, “Big Brother Qin is my friend. There are many rooms here. Let him live here.”

Xiahou Hongxiang said, “Your Highness, that won’t do. You live here. How would I dare to let other men in?

“Your reputation will be damaged and the King will blame me. Even if I have 10 heads, they would not be enough to be cut off.”

His words sounded so righteous that Zhao Xingyue could not find any reason to refute him.

Qin Haodong said, “It doesn’t matter. We don’t live far away anyway. I’ll come over if there’s anything.”

Xiahou Hongxiang replied, “That’s right. Mr. Qin lives next to you. His place is only several hundred meters away from here. Tomorrow, you can pay him a visit at any time!”

Zhao Xingyue could not say anything more. Qin Haodong followed Xiahou Hongxiang out of their residence and went to another small yard next to it.

The environment here was good but no one would be staying here except Qin Haodong.

Xiahou Hongxiang said with a fake smile, “I’m sorry, Mr. Qin. You have to stay here for the time being.”

Qin Haodong said, “It doesn’t matter. I actually like peace and quiet.”

“As long as you like it.”

After that, Xiahou Hongxiang turned around. The expression on his face instantly became ruthless. He thought to himself, “Brat, tonight will be the day of your death.”

He left and returned to his Lord Mansion. Then he called his deputy general, Jiang Bin, over.

After entering, Jiang Bin said directly, “General, are you going to kill that punk?”

Xiahou Hongxiang said with a gloomy face, “I have arranged a yard for him alone. Ask someone to kill him tonight.

“I’ve already learned that this brat’s cultivation is only at the late stage of the Voiding Realm. He’s nothing special but he has a seventh-level demonic beast that is extremely fierce. My brother was killed by that demonic beast.

“Therefore, you have to launch a sneak attack when you send people to attack him. Catch him off guard and directly kill him. Don’t give him a chance to summon his demonic beast.”

“Don’t worry, General. I’ll definitely not let that punk see tomorrow’s sunrise.” Jiang Bin said, “What about Princess Xingyue and those women? Kill them too?”

Xiahou Hongxiang waved his hand and said, “Don’t be impulsive. After all, Zhao Xingyue is the Princess of the kingdom. If something happens to her in Golden Horse City, we will be in serious trouble.

“I have reported the news to the Queen. We just need to wait for her decision. If she asks us to take action, we will directly kill them on the way.”

Jiang Bin nodded and said, “Understood, General. I’ll go prepare the manpower now.”

Xiahou Hongxiang said, “Remember! Act swiftly and efficiently. Do not leave any traces.”

“Don’t worry! I happen to have a pair of killers. Not only do they have high cultivation but they are also good at assassination. They have never failed until now. They will definitely send Qin Haodong to hell.”

After that, Jiang Bin left the Lord Mansion confidently.

Qin Haodong had nothing to do when he was all alone. After dinner, he went to bed early. After closing his eyes, the women of his family flashed through his mind, one by one.

Lin Momo, Hu Xiaoxian, Nalan Wushuang, Nalan Wuxia… he wondered how they were doing now…

Just as he was immersed in his beautiful memories, he suddenly had a sense of danger. His Spirit swept out of the room and saw a black shadow appear in the courtyard like a ghost.

Qin Haodong thought to himself, “So fast. Since you want to play, I’ll play with you too!”
