Chapter 17: The Abandoned Son

"It's better not to choose to do something that you don't know if you're not sure about." Gu Bei slowly walked to the duke's side, then looked at the duke with an indifferent gaze, and then said, "Whether I kill the Marquis of Koria or not, I will not serve your Star Luo Empire at all. ”

A small Star Luo Empire naturally cannot be caught in Gu Bei's eyes, and the meaning of Gu Bei's words is almost the same as saying that he doesn't do things that he is not sure of, and he is also admonishing the duke not to do things that he is not sure of.

"Are you the Title Douluo who belongs to that force?" The duke's eyes were a little surprised, but his face didn't show much expression, years of fighting had already made him develop an indifferent character, and the soul power fluctuations that came from Gu Bei's body were obviously at the Title Douluo level, and he had felt it from other Titled Douluo.

"You better think about your current situation first, if I want to kill you, it's easy to do it." Gu Bei said lightly, but the duke just smiled lightly and said, "If you say so, it means that you won't kill me." ”

The duke knew that Gu Bei dared to make a move, but he also knew that Gu Bei would not do it, he was just curious about where Gu Bei was the soul master and where he served.

The Duke looked at Gu Bei carefully, then shook his head again, and said, "You are dressed in this outfit, you are neither from the Star Luo Empire, nor from the Martial Spirit Empire, nor from the Sun and Moon Empire, so who are you." ”

Gu Bei's current outfit is actually the same white robe he wore when he covered the sky, and if Douluo Continent is divided according to his dress, it should be regarded as a semi-Western style, Gu Bei's dress is too different from here, and even the Duke doesn't know where Gu Bei is.

"What is the purpose of your coming to the Star Luo Empire, why did you kill the Marquis of Koria." At this moment, the duke threw out two more questions, but Gu Bei just smiled faintly and did not answer the duke's question.

The duke also knew that Gu Bei would not answer his question, but he would at least say the doubts in his heart in front of Gu Bei, Gu Bei glanced at the duke, and then said, "I won't do anything that is unfavorable to the Star Luo Empire, so don't be so nervous." ”

"But if the Star Luo Empire makes any moves, then don't blame me for being unkind." Gu Bei said very indifferently, but Gu Bei's indifference made the duke feel that Gu Bei was very likely to really do what he said.

"I think the Duke should understand, right?" Gu Bei smiled, he didn't want to kill the duke, this was also because the duke was more knowledgeable, if it was someone like the Marquis of Koria, Gu Bei wouldn't mind killing him.

"Hmm." The corner of the duke's mouth showed a somewhat helpless smile, that smile was a little bitter, he had fought on behalf of the Star Luo Empire for many years, crisscrossing the battlefield, but now he was confined here by one person.

Only then did he know the importance of cultivation, if he was also a Title Douluo, he would not be Gu Bei's opponent, but unfortunately he was not Gu Bei's opponent at all now, and he had no power to resist.

"What do you want?" The duke knew very well in his heart that Gu Bei did not intend to kill him, which also meant that Gu Bei had some needs, but he didn't know what Gu Bei's needs were, and he could only pray that Gu Bei's needs were what he could do.

"What do you think I want?" Gu Bei smiled slightly, then looked at Xiao Xiao who was stunned on the side, and asked, "Xiao Xiao, what do you want?" ”

Xiao Xiao reacted and came back to his senses, but he didn't seem to hear what Gu Bei was saying, his little face was a little confused, and he asked puzzledly: "Uncle, what did you just say?" ”

"What do you want?" Gu Bei repeated the question just now, this time Xiao Xiao finally heard Gu Bei's question clearly, but Xiao Xiao was stunned for a moment, what did she want?

"I ......" Xiao Xiao couldn't say what he wanted.

"I don't know." At this moment, Xiao Xiao was a little confused in her heart, this month, in fact, she still felt a little illusory, she had never had such a good treatment, Xiao Xiao, who had been wandering in Xingluo City, had never had friends, let alone Gu Bei who gave her a feeling like a relative.

Originally, the duke felt that if he let a little girl say it, there might be some possibility, but now it has become Gu Bei's request, and he feels that if the Star Luo Empire wants to avoid this unnecessary battle, then he can only do what Gu Bei said.

And he has to use a delaying tactic now, otherwise he will lose his own life.

"I heard you have a son?" Gu Bei's question was a bit nonsensical, which made the duke stunned, and he didn't react for a while, but after reacting, he asked very suspiciously: "What do you want?" ”

"Your son." Gu Bei said lightly, but the conversation between Gu Bei and the Duke made Xiao Xiao on the side almost laugh.

"My son?" The duke was very confused, and then asked, "What do you want my son to do?" ”

Then there was a little vigilance in the duke's eyes, his son was the blood of the Duke's Palace, and he was also the one who inherited his title, and he was also his own flesh and blood.

"I have only one son and one daughter, and it is impossible for me to hand them over to you!" The duke said categorically, as a father, he also has to protect his children, even if he is facing Gu Bei now, he is not afraid.

"Have you forgotten that you have another son?" Gu Bei asked lightly.

The duke in front of him obviously forgot Huo Yuhao, and the duke had the result of a night of romance for some reason, especially Huo Yuhao's martial soul was not the same as the duke's martial soul, so he was even less popular with the duke.

"Another ......" The Duke suddenly remembered something, then looked at Gu Bei again, and said, "If you want that one, I can hand him over to you, but you can't make a move against the Star Luo Empire, let alone my eldest son and eldest daughter." ”

"Do you think a few ants are worth my shot?" Gu Bei asked rhetorically, Gu Bei's rhetorical question made the duke speechless, but there was nothing wrong with it, even he, a soul saint, had no resistance in front of Gu Bei, let alone his children.

Huo Yuhao's status in the Duke's Mansion was very low, and even Gu Bei felt a little sad, in fact, Huo Yuhao's talent was not bad, not even worse than Tang San, but for some reason, he was not treated by the duke.

Of course, the current Huo Yuhao has not changed his surname, and he still has the same surname as the duke, but Huo Yuhao, as the son of the duke, has a lower status in the duke's palace than even the sons of those servants with good martial souls.

Huo Yuhao's mother was just the duchess's dowry maid, and she was driven to the backyard by the duchess, to be honest, it was really rare for the duke to remember that he had a son.

However, at a critical time, the duke abandoned Huo Yuhao.
