Chapter 536 The sky brightened!
When he heard the news, he felt as if the sky had fallen. His daughter was tied up in a brothel and there was still a chance of survival, but being tied up in the Prince Qing's mansion... that would almost certainly mean certain death.
Sure enough, less than two days later, he received a message from his daughter. Someone with good connections told him that they had seen his daughter's body in a mass grave.
Upon hearing the news, he and his wife rushed to the mass grave outside the city, where they found their daughter's unrecognizable corpse...
It was no secret in Qingzhou Prefecture that the King of Qing enjoyed torturing and killing women. Countless women had died because of him. But the man never expected that his own daughter would experience such a thing.
The man was furious, wishing he could take a knife and storm into the Qing King's mansion to kill that damned Qing King. However, his wife did not lose her mind in anger and stepped forward to stop him.
"Honey, what will I do if you go?"
Looking at his wife's tear-streaked face, the man finally suppressed his anger. Not for any other reason than that his wife was pregnant at the time, and he had to stay in the hospital to take care of his wife and the child in her womb.
So the couple hastily buried their daughter's body and returned home to resume their lives as if nothing had happened.
However... every night, the man's dreams would be filled with the image of his daughter, which deepened his hatred for the King of Qing.
However, because he had a wife and a newborn child at home, he could only bury this hatred deep in his heart and dared not reveal it in the slightest.
Now, three years have passed, and the man's hatred for the King of Qing has not diminished at all, but has become even stronger.
Therefore, upon seeing the death of the Green King, the man felt both joy and loss.
The surprise was that the Green King was dead, and his daughter's great revenge was finally achieved.
The disappointment stemmed from the fact that even though the Green King was dead, his daughter could not be brought back to life!
"The boss."
The man's wife gazed at Xia Yuanying's headless corpse in the distance and gritted her teeth, saying, "Xue'er's great revenge has finally been achieved!"
"Yes! Someone avenged Xue'er!"
The man gazed wistfully at the sky and murmured, "Surely Xue'er's spirit in heaven would be pleased?"
To this day, the man still remembers the endless resentment in his daughter's eyes when she died. It was a look he had never seen in his daughter's eyes before. It's hard to imagine what kind of torment she suffered before her death that could have caused her to feel such hatred.
Unfortunately, he was a useless father and failed to avenge Xue'er himself.
Good thing...
Someone has avenged Xue'er!
The man looked at the blood-stained figure in front of the Qingwang Mansion. At this moment, that figure was the true hero in his heart.
"He's dead! That's great! That evil king is finally dead!"
"Great! Dawn has finally broken in Qingzhou!"
"Hahahaha! Dead! The evil king is dead, but my wife and my unborn child will never come back, hahahahaha!"
"..."
The people who saw Xia Yuanying dead were filled with mixed feelings of sorrow and joy.
The joy stemmed from the death of the Green King, meaning they would no longer need to worry about the safety of the women in their households, nor would they suffer from his oppression and exploitation.
The tragedy is that... their loved ones who died because of Xia Yuanying will never come back!
"They actually... killed him!"
Jiang Canghai stared blankly at Xia Yuanying's headless corpse, his heart filled with turmoil.
In the three hundred years since the founding of the Xia Kingdom, there have been royal family members who died young and royal family members who were assassinated, but there has never been a royal family member who was killed in public.
Even more terrifying is that the person killed was not an ordinary member of the royal family, but... Xia Yuanying, who possessed the direct bloodline of the Xia family and was a prince!
The assassination of an ordinary member of the royal family was enough to enrage the Xia family.
Jiang Canghai couldn't even imagine how violent the Xia family's reaction would be when a prince like Xia Yuanying was murdered in public!
Moreover, Chen Dao did more than just kill Qing Wang in public; he tortured and killed him, and finally stomped on Xia Yuanying's head until it was crushed.
This is utterly humiliating to the Xia family. If the Xia family finds out about this, the entire Nine Provinces will likely be thrown into turmoil.
"The sky has changed!"
Li Qingsong looked up at the sky, which had regained its light. For three hundred years, even martial artists with high cultivation levels had not dared to lay a hand on the Xia family. Even if they had no choice but to take action, they would do so by assassination to avoid being hunted down by the Xia family after they learned of their identities.
But that boy... killed Xia Yuanying in public.
This was undoubtedly a slap in the face to the Xia family. Whether for their own face and prestige or to deter troublemakers, the Xia Kingdom would probably not let this go.
"Young friend Chen...sigh!"
Jiang Changye sighed. He understood Chen Dao's anger, but he did not agree with Chen Dao's choice.
Killing Xia Yuanying might relieve my anger, but what happens after that?
Xia Yuanying is a direct descendant of the Xia family. Killing Xia Yuanying means becoming a complete enemy of the Xia family.
The Xia Kingdom, which ruled the Nine Provinces for three hundred years, possessed a foundation far beyond anyone's imagination.
Once this matter spreads, there will probably be no place for Chen Dao to stay in the entire Kyushu.
"what!"
A mournful cry rang out, and the last royal guard also died under Xiao Yuan's claws.
With a leap, Xiao Yuan landed on Chen Dao's shoulder, its dark eyes filled with concern for its master.
It could sense the unease in Chen Dao's heart at this moment, but of course, it was more concerned about Chen Dao's injuries.
"Hey?"
Xiao Yuan let out a soft whimper, as if asking Chen Dao: Master, are you alright?
"I am fine."
Chen Dao, who understood Xiao Yuan's thoughts, shook his head, stared intently at Xia Yuanying's headless corpse, and asked, "Xiao Yuan, do you think what I did was right?"
Chen Dao didn't know if what he did was right or wrong. Killing Xia Yuanying did give him a sense of satisfaction and a moment of pleasure, but...
The chain reaction that followed would likely be very detrimental to both him and Chenjia Village.
"Hey."
The little round head nodded vigorously, as if to say, "Master, you are right."
Seeing this, Chen Dao laughed: "Since even you think it's right, then it's right."
After saying that, Chen Dao squatted down and began to search Xia Yuanying's corpse, hoping to find the Overlord Spear technique on Xia Yuanying's body. Unfortunately, after searching for a long time, he still found nothing.
"Give up, young man!"
Qianli'er seemed to know what Chen Dao was going to do, and said from a distance, "The Xia family's Overlord Spear is not allowed to be copied by clansmen. It is passed down orally. It is impossible to find the Overlord Spear on Xia Yuanying's corpse."
