Chapter 715 -716: Continue the Music, Continue the Dance!

“Xue’er, you must believe me, this is definitely not my child, there must be something wrong with the Luminous Pearl!”

Within the grand hall, murderous intent crisscrossed; Gui Xuan was so shocked that his hair stood on end, never expecting that the little princess would actually start a killing spree. This was somewhat different from what he had imagined.

“Little Princess, this old official can guarantee this child is certainly not my grandson’s. There must have been some mistake. Today is your joyous day, and spilling blood might offend the festive atmosphere, which is not very auspicious. How about we discuss this matter tomorrow?”

The Tortoise Prime Minister also felt his heart sink as he respectfully said.

“Xue’er, this matter has been noted by the king. Any grievances will be settled tomorrow. Today is your wedding day; please do not act recklessly within the Golden Imperial Palace,” the Old Dragon King said, his glance towards the Tortoise Prime Minister filled with a dangerous aura.

He was already planning in his heart to sideline the Tortoise Prime Minister in the future and find someone else who understood the issues to assist with the Sea Clan’s major and minor affairs.

Li Xiaobai was a fine choice.

“What could bless my husband and me more on our wedding day than the blood of a few prestigious individuals? Grandfather, today is your grandson’s wedding day, and he’ll make all the decisions. Husband, what do you say?” Long Xue asked with a faint smile, looking at Li Xiaobai.

“Listen to the wife. If you don’t remove the roots, the spring breeze will bring them back to life. Kill them all!” Li Xiaobai said lightly, with a wave of his hand.

“You can’t kill me; this child is yours, Li Xiaobai!”

“You want to kill to silence me; I won’t accept this!”

“We can verify the child’s parentage by blood test. Your Majesty, please give your daughter one more chance; I will prove this child is Li Xiaobai’s!”

Bai Lianhua’s face was full of panic as she spoke in a flustered manner.

As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a red figure flash before her eyes, followed by her head spinning. Then, she saw her own body kneeling on the ground, lifeless.

“On the day this palace is getting married, you dare to insult my husband? You truly have a death wish.”

In front of the hall, blood splattered three feet high.

Long Xue leisurely wiped her hands. Next to her, the body of a headless woman, still gushing blood from the neck, slowly collapsed, and a head with bulging eyes rolled to a stop near Gui Xuan.

“Murder… there’s been a murder!”

“The little princess has killed that woman!”

“Damn, she’s serious. She just ripped off the woman’s head without any hesitation. Is the little princess this ruthless and merciless?”

“Isn’t that obvious? Among the Dragon Race, who is a coward or a pushover? Although the little princess usually has great self-control and excellent temperament and cultivation level, once she takes action, she is absolutely ferocious!”

“Today, the Tortoise Prime Minister is in trouble; probably only the king can save him now!”

“Yes, the Tortoise Prime Minister is involved in too many affairs of the Dragon Palace. He simply cannot be touched. Perhaps that’s why he and his grandson are so arrogant?”

The civil and military officials among the hundreds were in an uproar, all keeping silent, for fear of being targeted by Long Xue and getting involved.

“Xue’er, you!”

Gui Xuan was completely petrified, never having imagined that there would be a murder in the presence of the Old Dragon King.

“You too shall die!”

“This palace has wanted to kill you for a long time!”

Long Xue’s eyes flashed coldly as her delicate hands instantly transformed into dark purple dragon claws, reaching for Gui Xuan’s head.

“Stop!”

“It seems inappropriate for the little princess to kill the official’s descendant without a thorough investigation. Shall we not get to the bottom of this matter before making a final decision?”

The Tortoise Prime Minister blocked Long Xue’s attack; after all, he was a Great Crossing Realm Cultivator, and despite Long Xue being exceptionally talented, she was not his match.

“This is outrageous!”

“Xue’er, today is your wedding day with the Prince Consort. How can you commit murder in the Golden Imperial Hall? How will you proceed with the wedding now?”

“Do you even hold the dignity of the Sea Clan in your eyes?”

The Old Dragon King’s face looked unpleasant at the moment, partly because he was angered by the Tortoise Prime Minister and partly because he was frightened by Long Xue.

To commit a murder in front of him, the Dragon King, in this court hall, was akin to a disdain for royal authority, leaving him disgraced. His approach to handling the situation seemed too hasty.

It was clear to anyone with eyes that the Tortoise Prime Minister’s grandson had been scheming behind the scenes to disrupt the marriage, but for the greater picture, he had to save the Tortoise Prime Minister. It was an act of sheer helplessness.

“Grandfather, as a princess of the Sea Clan, every move I make represents our clan’s dignity. The Tortoise Prime Minister’s grandson has been causing trouble outside, and now he even used his own child to humiliate both my husband and me. His death is more than deserved!” Long Xue said coldly.

“Nonsense, that child isn’t mine!”

Gui Xuan shouted.

“Then why is your compatibility with this child so high?” Li Xiaobai asked on the side.

“This child’s compatibility with anyone would be top-notch. It has nothing to do with me. No matter who tests it, the result would be the same. Why do you specifically pick on me? You obviously hold a grudge in your heart, targeting me!”

Gui Xuan also became agitated, letting the secret slip out carelessly, but he immediately realized his mistake. His face turned ashen, and his legs nearly gave out beneath him, almost collapsing to the ground. The Tortoise Prime Minister was about to explode with rage. The Old Dragon King had stepped forward to protect them, yet this worthless thing had just outed himself. Wasn’t that seeking death?

“How do you know that this child’s compatibility with anyone would be top-notch if he isn’t yours?”

Li Xiaobai shook his head; this guy was beyond foolish.

“Enough, settle this among yourselves today!”

The Old Dragon King’s fingers trembled slightly as he slowly closed his eyes. In the face of Gui Xuan’s disastrous blunder, any calculation of gains and losses seemed futile.

He had already spilled the beans himself, just short of pointing to his own head and saying he was the mastermind behind it all. If he continued his protection, it could undermine his own credibility.

“Husband, we have been bullied! Grandfather won’t intervene. What do you say?”

Long Xue’s murderous intent didn’t diminish, and a greenish gleam flashed in her eyes.

“Today is the day of our wedding, and the celebrations have been too monotonous. Why don’t we use the blood of everyone from the Prime Minister’s Mansion to set off some human fireworks?”

Heart of the Blood Demon!

A sinister smile curled on Li Xiaobai’s lips as a gore-drenched heart appeared behind him, pulsing vigorously. Tendrils spread out from all directions towards the Tortoise Prime Minister, the thick scent of blood filling the entire hall.

“What kind of sinister Cultivation Technique is this?”

“Isn’t the Prince Consort a Sword Cultivator? When did he learn such a bloody method?”

“The Prince Consort has been in the Celestial Prison all this time; could he have learned something wicked from those prisoners?”

“That’s possible…”

As they watched the tendrils, the civil and military officials scrambled to retreat but could not avoid them in time.

“Bah!”

“To preserve the century-long reputation of the Tortoise Clan, I am willing to live or die with the Prime Minister’s Mansion. Let us bear witness to the Prince Consort’s abilities today!”

The Tortoise Prime Minister spoke with righteous indignation, putting on an act as if ready to fight to the death with Li Xiaobai, but his body honestly pulled Gui Xuan and dashed towards the outside of the hall, intending to escape.

Unfortunately, before he could take half a step, he felt a warm sensation in his chest. Glancing down, he saw a tendril had already pierced his chest, his blood staining the area red. Then, dozens of gory tendrils skewered his body wholly, lifting him and his grandson high above the hall with one flick.

“Human fireworks, please bear witness!”

The dozens of blood-red tendrils tore viciously in all directions, and in the blink of an eye, the two bodies exploded into a blood mist in midair, their blood splattering everywhere and bursting into clouds, whipping up a storm of blood and gore.

Li Xiaobai stood in the center of the great hall, holding Long Xue’s soft, boneless hand, his hair dancing in the air, laughing heartily as he bathed in the pouring blood. His red gown became even more bewitchingly crimson.

The great hall fell silent.

After a long while, an eerie red gleam flickered in Li Xiaobai’s eyes. “Why the daze? Continue the music, continue the dance!”
