CHAPTER XVI
Gu Bei's words suddenly made the short soldier feel that he had been tricked, because he couldn't feel the fluctuation of soul power from Gu Bei's body, then there were only two possibilities, that is, Gu Bei might not be a soul master, and the second possibility was that Gu Bei was a high-level soul master, but the latter one was very low.
Even when Gu Bei was like this, the short soldier didn't believe that Gu Bei would be a high-level soul master.
Because Gu Bei was so young, he looked like he was only about twenty, and he didn't believe that there would be such a young high-level soul master.
The short soldier was furious and asked fiercely, "You dare to tease me?" ”
"Why don't you dare?" Gu Bei smiled faintly, and Xiao Xiao also covered his mouth and chuckled lightly, in fact, Gu Bei was like this, just to let Xiao Xiao relax a little and enliven the atmosphere, so as not to make Xiao Xiao nervous.
And Gu Bei's approach was obviously very successful, and he successfully amused Xiao Xiao, but Xiao Xiao's smile made the short soldier even more angry, and the short soldier was furious at the moment.
even directly drew out the long sword and said fiercely: "Don't think I dare not kill you!" ”
The short soldier was angry at the moment, and the short soldier who was full of anger in his heart just wanted to kill Gu Bei to vent his anger at the moment, but just as the short man raised his hand, a loud shout suddenly came from outside the door.
"Stop!" The voice Gu Bei felt very familiar, and then he turned his head and saw Captain Luo who had cleared the siege for them before.
The short soldier put down his sword with some embarrassment, and then shouted respectfully, "Captain." ”
But the short soldier then said, "These two are most likely the murderers of the Marquis of Koria, and I have asked Morris to go and tell the Duke." ”
"The murderer of the Marquis of Koria?" Captain Luo asked, but there was also apology in his eyes, as if he was saying to Gu Bei that he couldn't help Gu Bei this time.
"Well, these two men are suspicious, much like the Baron said." The short soldier nodded, he was a little glad when he saw that Captain Luo didn't blame him, he thought that he would be seen by Captain Luo and would punish him once, but fortunately, Captain Luo seemed to have forgotten to punish him.
"You step down first, and I'll leave it here." Captain Luo waved his hand and said to the short soldier.
"Yes." Seeing Captain Luo take over, although the short soldier's face was a little unsightly, he also had to maintain a smile, and the credit that originally belonged to him became the credit of Captain Luo, and he had nothing to say.
Finding that the short soldier had completely left, Captain Luo looked at Gu Bei with a smile and asked, "Did you really kill the Marquis of Koria?" ”
"Hmm." After all, Captain Luo also had a good impression in Gu Bei's heart, and Gu Bei answered Captain Luo's question directly, anyway, Gu Bei felt that nothing would appear.
Even if you tell Captain Luo, nothing will happen.
"That's great." Captain Luo smiled, and then said, "I have long been unhappy with the Marquis of Coria. ”
However, Captain Luo's smile disappeared in an instant, and he looked at Gu Bei's eyes full of apologies, and then sighed and said, "But I can't save you this time." ”
"This matter has been taken over by the Duke, and there were witnesses when I heard that the Marquis of Coria was killed." Captain Luo then said, "So...... I'm so sorry. ”
Gu Bei killed the Marquis of Koria, Captain Luo was naturally very grateful, but he couldn't help Gu Bei later, and Captain Luo was really full of apologies.
"It doesn't matter." Gu Bei waved his hand and said, "Thank you before, you don't need to help this time." ”
Besides, Gu Bei didn't need anyone's help, he just wanted to meet Huo Yuhao's father.
And according to this time, because Huo Yuhao's martial soul and Koria's mother are not welcomed, Huo Yuhao should also be particularly unpopular in the Duke's Palace.
Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps at the door, followed by a tall soldier with a respectful voice.
"Captain Luo."
There was a middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes in the back, the middle-aged man was not angry and arrogant, and when he looked at Gu Bei, he also had an indifferent look.
"Lord Duke." Captain Luo looked at the Duke respectfully, even him, facing the Duke of the Star Luo Empire, he had to be full of respect.
In particular, this duke is still a duke who leads troops, is full of prestige, and is full of real power.
"Hmm." The Duke nodded, and his eyes were on Gu Bei, but then a civilian dressed in gray linen clothes appeared beside him.
"Let's see, if these two men killed Kolya." The Duke said lightly, obviously he didn't care much about the death of the Marquis of Koria, but it was just because the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire handed over this matter to him, and he was responsible for this matter.
After seeing Gu Bei, the commoner pointed directly at Gu Bei, his fingers trembled a little, and after hearing the duke's inquiry, he hurriedly said: "Yes, Lord Duke, it was these two people who killed Lord Marquis." ”
"If you kill the nobles of the empire, according to the laws of the empire, you should be killed directly." The duke said lightly, but then directly stopped the tall soldier who was about to do it.
"He's at least a Contra." The Duke looked at Gu Bei very vigilantly, he was only a Soul Saint, Gu Bei had the strength to kill a Soul Saint, at least he was also a Soul Douluo, so the Duke didn't want to make a move with Gu Bei.
"And Kolyana is nothing but a waste nobleman, so Your Majesty doesn't intend me to kill you, but wants you to serve the Empire." The Duke said lightly.
"Your Majesty told me that if you are willing to serve the Empire, then I will directly make you a duke." A person who may be a Title Douluo or a Contra Douluo, the Star Luo Empire is not willing to give up, let alone for a hereditary marquis who is not a soul master.
The most important thing is that Marquis Koria's reputation is really very bad in Star Luo City, so the emperor of the Star Luo Empire feels that the killing of Marquis Koria is not a trivial matter.
"If you don't accept it, then Lord Douluo, the Title of the Empire, will directly hunt you down, and even if you flee to the ends of the earth, the Empire will kill you." The Duke said very seriously.
Gu Bei looked at the Duke lightly, and then said, "Who gave you the courage to threaten me with a soul saint?" ”
Gu Bei's words made the duke even more vigilant, and his eyes were full of solemnity when he looked at Gu Bei.
"Even if the Title Douluo comes, what if you kill it." After Gu Bei finished speaking, he directly turned into a ghost, and a figure like a real dragon appeared behind Gu Bei, Gu Bei directly grabbed the duke's collar, Gu Bei's soul power fluctuations made it difficult for the duke to breathe, let alone operate his soul power in front of Gu Bei.
He originally thought that even if he was not defeated by Gu Bei, he would at least have the ability to fight with him, but he couldn't even activate his soul power in front of Gu Bei.
"You ......"
