Bab 3094: Chapter 3079 Argument_1
Xue Ye waved his hand impatiently and said, "Since you understand, why haven't you left already?"
Biting his teeth, Prince Xue Xing gestured and disappeared within the grand hall...
Only after the presence had vanished did Xue Ye shake his head and say, "Xue Xing, oh Xue Xing, why are you so fixated on Qing He? The boy might be somewhat exceptional, but he surely can't be a spy."
He couldn't believe that any power or sect could pull off such a trick of switching the Crown Prince right under his watch!
Of course, the crucial point was that Qing He had not shown any flaws in front of him!
With that in mind, he began to feel a headache coming on and covered his forehead, leaning back in the throne and slowly closing his eyes...
...
After returning to his resting chamber...
The first thing he saw was Du Gu Bo, who had been waiting for him for a long time...
Glancing at Prince Xue Xing, he spoke up and said, "Prince Xue Xing, judging by your expression, it seems the outcome wasn't very good!"
Though the other had said nothing, the result was quite obvious!
Hearing these words, Prince Xue Xing retorted with a face full of anger, "Hmph, I can't understand why my brother trusts Qing He so much. The moment I mentioned keeping him at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, he immediately turned against the idea!"
"It's infuriating! The spy is right before us, yet we cannot execute him!"
If he were in Emperor Xue Ye's position, the first thing he would do is execute Qing He and allow Xue Beng to inherit the position of the Crown Prince!
Du Gu Bo pursed his lips and asked, "Prince Xue Xing, can you be so sure that Qing He is a spy?"
To be honest, after the last probe, he also believed that Qing He had not given them reason to be suspicious!
Prince Xue Xing immediately grew anxious and replied, "Of course. I have met the former Qing He, and although he was also quite outstanding, he was nowhere near as conspicuous as he is now."
If not for that, how could he be so certain that Qing He was a spy!
Du Gu Bo probed further, "So what do you plan to do next? Forcing Qing He into the Heaven Dou Royal Academy might infuriate Emperor Xue Ye!"
It could even lead to the loss of his position as prince!!
Prince Xue Xing outright rejected this suggestion, "Of course, we cannot do that. If we were to forcibly confine Qing He to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, it's hard to imagine what my brother would do!"
"But it doesn't matter. I already have people secretly watching Qing He. If he intends to do anything underhanded, he will surely leave a trail!"
Du Gu Bo furrowed his brow, "If you do this..."
Sensing what was on Du Gu Bo's mind, Prince Xue Xing smirked and said, "Don't worry, as long as we don't lay hands on Qing He, my brother will turn a blind eye."
Du Gu Bo took a deep breath and said, "Really? Well, you can rest assured that if Emperor Xue Ye decides to move against you, I certainly won't stand by idly!"
This statement was undoubtedly a comforting pill for Xue Xing, who sincerely thanked him, "Poison Douluo, I owe you so much over the years!!"
Du Gu Bo hadn't expected such a straightforward response...
He covered his mouth and coughed lightly, "It's nothing. I've always been this way; I don't owe anyone any favors!"
After a pause, he continued somewhat sheepishly, "Of course, there is one matter that I need you, Prince Xue Xing, to handle."
Prince Xue Xing was taken aback and immediately asked, "What matter? You may speak frankly, Poison Douluo. If it is within my power, I will not refuse."
Without being pretentious, Du Gu Bo spoke earnestly, "I've heard from Yan'er's Teacher Qin that Commissioner Zhi Lin seems to want to revoke Yan Zi's status in the first team!"
"He will probably come to you about it soon, hence..."
Upon hearing this, Prince Xue Xing's expression turned thoughtful, "Is it that matter? I've heard something of it too. It seems to be because your granddaughter has recently been neglecting her training..."
One could vaguely sense a subtle shift in Du Gu Bo's emotions...
Quickly changing his tone, Prince Xue Xing assured him, "But even if you hadn't mentioned it, Poison Douluo, I would not allow such a thing to happen!"
"I have seen Yan Zi many times, and her talent is indeed exceptional. She is among the top ranks at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy!"
"I am sure she has not been neglecting her training on purpose. Perhaps something has affected her mood!"
"Just wait a bit longer, and things will surely return to normal!"
Upon hearing this, Du Gu Bo's expression softened somewhat...
To completely reassure him, Prince Xue Xing clapped him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, your granddaughter is like my own, Poison Douluo. I won't let anyone bully her!"
Du Gu Bo nodded slightly, "Then I will trouble Prince Xue Xing with this matter, and I will also ensure that Yan Zi pulls herself together, so as not to affect the upcoming Continent-wide Elite Soul Master Competition."
However, before he could finish...
Loud, cursing voices came from outside the rest area...
"This is unacceptable, utterly unacceptable!"
"It's bad enough that Dugu Yan has been neglecting her cultivation, but for a mere teacher from Heaven Dou Royal Academy to also dare to provoke me!"
With a "bang," the door was violently pushed open, and Commissioner Zhi Lin stormed in angrily...
But upon seeing Prince Xue Xing and Du Gu Bo conversing in front of him, he instantly shut his mouth...
A hint of fear even flickered in his eyes...
Damn, I didn't expect the Poison Douluo to be here too!
Please don't let them have heard what I just said...
Prince Xue Xing looked at him, puzzled, "Commissioner Zhi Lin, what brings you here? Is there a problem?"
Facing Du Gu Bo's murderous gaze beside him, Zhi Lin dared not answer and hastily gestured with his hands, "No...no problem, Prince Xue Xing, Senior Douluo of Poison, I just walked in by mistake!"
"So, I won't disturb you any longer, I'll just leave now," he said.
After finishing, he prepared to leave...
However, Prince Xue Xing said teasingly, "Wait a moment, I thought I heard Commissioner Zhi Lin mention something about Dugu Yan's lax cultivation, and what was it again?"
Zhi Lin swallowed nervously, "No...nothing of the sort, you must have misheard, Prince Xue Xing!"
Prince Xue Xing narrowed his eyes, "Is that so??"
"Poison Douluo, it seems you heard it too, right?"
Du Gu Bo answered expressionlessly, "Yes, I heard it very clearly!"
Who would have thought!
This Zhi Lin's little report has been caught red-handed by me!
Having received an answer, Prince Xue Xing chuckled lightly, "It seems that it wasn't my hallucination then, Commissioner Zhi Lin, how do you explain this?"
Zhi Lin broke out in a cold sweat, feeling an immense pressure building on his shoulders...
Damn, to be upstaged by the Poison Douluo!
He's probably already secured Prince Xue Xing's support!
For me to barge in at this time is simply asking for humiliation!
With no other choice, he had to change his story...
"Well, Prince Xue Xing, Senior Douluo of Poison, the truth is this!"
"Although Student Dugu Yan has been neglecting her cultivation, I believe she definitely can recover to her normal condition in a short time!"
"Therefore, I urge Prince Xue Xing not to kick her off the first team!"
