Chapter 161: Chapter 118 Aren’t you going to apologize to your Uncle Qin? (10)_2

This was a question that Lance urgently wanted to know.

Qin Chu scratched his head, "The Holy Daughter? I didn’t do much, just spent a few wonderful nights together. I will always cherish those moments."

Qin Chu said with a wink, deliberately provoking the prince.

He indeed had spent a few nights with the Holy Daughter, but they hadn’t done anything. Most of the time, he had been with Catherine and Violet. Indeed, those were times worth reminiscing.

But, to Lance’s ears, it sounded completely different.

Qin Chu could even clearly see the noble prince’s pupils continually trembling, his body instantly covered with a layer of ice-white killing aura.

It seemed as if the temperature around them was dropping.

In Lance’s mind, images of Qin Chu and Holy Daughter Rose Vesper on the green grasslands, bathed under the silvery moonlight, began to surface, instantly sending his blood boiling to his head.

That image was just too terrible.

Huh?

Why hasn’t he made a move yet?

Qin Chu was surprised by Lance’s patience and decided to provoke him further, "Oh right, Rose Vesper has agreed to go on a date with me. I’ve already booked the hotel. If the date gets tiring, we can get a room to rest..."

Hiss...

Lance’s body suddenly shuddered, his right hand almost uncontrollably reaching for the sword at his waist.

He still managed to restrain himself in a very ninja-like manner.

No matter how much he wanted to kill the Hero, he absolutely couldn’t bear the crime of attacking the Hero in public. Even his father wouldn’t be able to protect him, after all, this involved the entire Sky Dome Continent.

He might be impulsive, but at least he understood that at this moment, he needed to control his emotions.

Lance pressed his hand against his abdomen to prevent himself from exploding in anger. After taking two deep breaths, he no longer paid attention to Qin Chu, knowing that if the conversation continued, he would completely lose control.

"Take Horn away. I have an important matter to interrogate him about."

As Lance gave out an order, several of the eighteen attendants behind him immediately stepped forward, ready to forcefully take Horn away.

Qin Chu’s expression also darkened. He stepped on Horn’s face and swept a cold glance at Lance, "Prince, to take someone away just like that, isn’t that a bit too easy..."

"This person claims that you ordered him to provoke me, sabotaging the great cause of the Sky Dome Continent’s united front against demons. Don’t you have an explanation to give?"

"Explanation?" Lance sneered coldly, "I, the prince, don’t need to explain anything. Who heard these words, unless you are making them up?"

Lance’s gaze swept across the crowd. All the nobles around lowered their heads, not daring to stand up. After all, this was the future Emperor. Who would dare not to give face to the future Emperor at this time, seeking death?

"You see, no one..."

Just as Lance was smug, a voice suddenly came from the cake shop next to them.

"I heard it, the man said that the mastermind behind the scene was you, Prince."

The crisp voice was somewhat familiar. Qin Chu turned his head and to his surprise, it was Nadia.

Nadia’s expression was cold, completely ignoring the unsightly look on the prince’s face, and walked straight up to him, "Prince, I heard it. Is my testimony credible? You wouldn’t think I, Nadia, the thirteenth Great Sage of Wise Mountain, am lying, right?"

Even in the face of the Prince, Nadia’s attitude remained neither fawning nor obsequious, cold and proud.

In fact, when Horn raised his fist, Nadia had been ready to take action, but Qin Chu’s response was too fast for her to intervene.

Lance’s lips could not stop trembling. Damn, a woman had unexpectedly emerged from nowhere to support Qin Chu.

The group of old monsters on Wise Mountain, thirteen Great Sages, was a force that even Lance did not want to easily provoke.

Why would this woman stand up for Qin Chu?

With a sullen face, Lance barely managed to force out a smile, "Of course, Miss Nadia certainly wouldn’t lie. However... Horn might lie. He wants to slander me. Mr. Brave, you surely won’t believe such nonsense, will you?"

Qin Chu spread his hands, "Sorry, but I do believe it."

Lance’s expression became uglier and uglier. He hadn’t expected Qin Chu to be so disrespectful, ready to tear each other’s faces... Of course, he had also forgotten that he had never given any face to Qin Chu. Why should Qin Chu give him any respect?

The situation, if allowed to continue, would not bode well for his reputation. Lance took a deep breath, "As the Prince, I command you to get out of my way... Move aside..."

Pfft...

Qin Chu couldn’t hold back his laughter, a mocking glint in his eye as he glanced at Lance, "A command from the Prince?"

"It’s worth shit!"

It seemed the Prince hadn’t expected Qin Chu to be so crass and disrespectful, but the retainers nearby reacted even quicker.

These retainers were death soldiers raised by the Prince, with loyalty only to him. What became of the Sky Dome Continent was not their concern. Hearing Qin Chu insult the Prince, they swiftly drew their weapons.

Fighting Energy surged within them.

They formed a circle around Qin Chu, ready to hack him to pieces at a single command from the Prince.

"Everyone stand down!"

Just then, a roar like that of a mighty lion echoed from the far horizon.

When the sound was first heard, it was distant, but as the last syllable fell, a majestic figure had already reached the scene.

A massive body like that of a brown bear, muscular and powerful, with a stern face as if cast from metal.

Broad-backed and strong-waisted, with eyes as sharp as an eagle’s and as watchful as a wolf’s.

As soon as he appeared, the wild and brutal aura, as if from a blood-soaked battlefield, hit everyone full force.

The surrounding minor nobles couldn’t help but retreat involuntarily, overwhelmed by the man’s fierce presence.

Many nobles even knelt down, for the robust man before them was none other than the supreme ruler of the Oville Empire, the Emperor, Wozworth.

Silence fell around, and as the furious gaze swept over, the eighteen death soldiers, who were supposed to heed only the Prince’s orders, subconsciously lowered their weapons and stepped back.

The Prince too could not help but lower his noble head, finally dismounting from his horse, as he had no place to ride in Wozworth’s presence.

Even Violet’s brow furrowed slightly as she stepped closer to Qin Chu, her arms hanging naturally by her side—though appearing calm, she was ready for combat.

She was up against a formidable opponent, and Violet did not dare to take it lightly.

Worthy of being the Emperor of the Empire.

This aura...

This pressure...

Perhaps in terms of strength, neither Saint Monica nor Augustus were inferior to Wozworth.

But nobody could match his presence.

Even Qin Chu couldn’t help but admire it—such an aura could not be obtained simply by amassing power, it was cultivated through a long tenure at the zenith of power.

Wozworth’s gaze swept over Violet with a trace of surprise in his eyes. He knew Qin Chu had brought back a woman from the outside, but he had not anticipated her strength to be so formidable.

His gaze then moved to Nadia, as if assessing the relationship between Nadia and the Hero, but Nadia remained calm and unaffected.

Seconds later, Wozworth withdrew his gaze and turned to Qin Chu, his expression changed, slapping Qin Chu’s shoulder jovially, "Uncle Qin, why so angry? It’s a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding... We are all brothers, should we really let the words of a few fools ruin our amity?"

No, who’s your brother? If we’re talking about brotherhood, isn’t the age difference a bit too much?

The crowd of onlookers included an unknown number of Wozworth’s intelligence agents; as soon as the conflict began, Wozworth was made aware.

Although he appeared amiable, anger seethed within him.

Such a fool, that Lance.

He had been desperate to foster good relations with the Hero, even prepared to send his smartest and most obedient daughter to the palace—but Lance, the idiot, had managed to ruin all his efforts.

"The child is ignorant, Uncle Qin, don’t take it to heart," Wozworth turned and roared at Lance next to him, "Lance, come here right now and apologize to your Uncle Qin..."
