The crowd was stunned by Qin Xiao's words.
What did he mean?
Today was the wedding day. Could it be that Shen Han would abuse Qin Rushuang?
How could that be possible!
Qin Rumeng jumped out, glaring coldly and shouting at Qin Xiao with a face full of sarcasm:
"Today is Eldest Sister's wedding day. As husband and wife, they will naturally enter the bridal chamber. Could it be that Shen Han would share Eldest Sister with other men?"
"Qin Xiao! Your mind is truly filthy!"
Hearing this, the crowd looked at Qin Rumeng with strange expressions.
Why did she phrase it so weirdly?
What did she mean by sharing with other men?
Could it be that she had done this sort of thing before?
Qin Rumeng's scalp tingled under everyone's stares. Realizing she had misspoken, her eyes turned red, and she prepared to feign grievance and weep to garner sympathy.
But before she could cry.
Clap, clap, clap!
The sound of applause rang out.
Qin Xiao was clapping his hands together.
"You truly are a prophet. Perhaps Shen Han really is sharing your eldest sister."
His eyes were playful, and his tone was light, yet filled with mockery and ridicule.
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of everyone present changed drastically!
"Qin Xiao! You are insolent!"
Empress Dowager Wen immediately stepped forward. With red eyes and gritted teeth, she pointed at Qin Xiao and said hatefully,
"To think you would say such despicable and obscene things! She is your sister!"
"Can't you wish for anything good for Rushuang?"
Qin Xiao coldly looked down at Empress Dowager Wen and indifferently spat out a sentence: "I do not like being pointed at. If you do not want your hand, I can chop it off for you!"
This single sentence made Empress Dowager Wen's expression change wildly. Her body trembled, and she subconsciously hid behind Emperor Qinwu.
Emperor Qinwu's chest heaved violently, his eyes spitting fire. The gaze he directed at Qin Xiao was like that of a man-eating lion!
"Rebellious son! To think you would publicly say such treasonous words! Slandering the Eldest Princess, threatening the Empress Dowager, and disgracing our royal family!"
"Today, I will absolutely punish you severely! I will let you know what is meant by the proper order of rank and the distinction between young and old!"
Qin Xiao's words had undoubtedly trampled their dignity into the dirt!
One could well imagine that if this matter were to spread, Emperor Qinwu's lifelong reputation would be ruined in an instant!
"Men!"
Emperor Qinwu waved his large hand!
Clatter!
A large group of imperial guards drew their blades and completely surrounded Qin Xiao and his people!
The ten thousand Great Snow Dragon Cavalry were not to be outdone. They raised their spears, ready to charge into battle at any moment as long as Qin Xiao gave the order.
The wind blew gently as the two armies confronted each other, the air thick with the smell of gunpowder.
Seeing the drawn swords, the guests who had come to the banquet hastily retreated, terrified of being caught in the crossfire.
Facing countless blades, Qin Xiao chuckled lightly, not even lifting his eyelids a fraction.
"Old thing, do you think infantry are a match for heavy cavalry?"
"You want to fight to the bitter end, but I might as well tell you that even if you die, the net won't break!"
Qin Xiao's tone was calm, yet it revealed a terrifying killing intent!
Emperor Qinwu's pupils shrank.
He could feel Qin Xiao's killing intent toward him!
For a moment, he was somewhat distracted.
Qin Xiao wanted to kill him?
He had only wanted to dampen Qin Xiao's arrogance.
Why did Qin Xiao want to kill him?
He was Qin Xiao's father, after all!
Why had it turned out like this?
Emperor Qinwu remembered how Qin Xiao used to be completely obedient to him and would risk his life for him.
But exactly why had everything changed now?
Could it be that he had truly done something wrong today?
"Qin Xiao, we are family. If we fight to the death, wouldn't we just become a laughingstock to outsiders?"
"Regarding today's matter, it was wrong of me as your father. I shouldn't have rashly deployed troops."
Emperor Qinwu rarely apologized to Qin Xiao.
As soon as these words came out, the crowd was left dumbfounded on the spot.
Since when did this man, who valued his pride more than his life, apologize?
A flash of surprise crossed Qin Xiao's eyes.
But then, Emperor Qinwu spoke again.
Putting on an educational tone, he said to Qin Xiao earnestly:
"Although I was wrong, at the end of the day, it is still your fault. If you hadn't indiscriminately brought troops to trespass into the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple, I wouldn't have rushed over in a hurry."
"You are already an Emperor, can't you be a bit more steady?"
"Today is your eldest sister's joyous occasion. You are here doing evil and indiscriminately killing the innocent; have you ever respected your eldest sister?"
Emperor Qinwu originally wanted to ease the relationship between the two of them.
But gradually, it turned into blind preaching.
He stood in a self-righteous, lofty position, criticizing Qin Xiao's actions.
It was as if, without him, Qin Xiao was nothing.
Hearing to the end, a mocking smile curled the corners of Qin Xiao's mouth.
He actually thought Emperor Qinwu had changed.
It seemed a dog couldn't stop eating shit.
Still the same as before.
Always so hypocritical.
"Old thing! Stop your incessant nagging!"
Qin Xiao's eyes suddenly turned freezing cold. His entire aura erupted, his dragon robes fluttering without wind, his black hair flying wildly, looking like an Asura King walking out of the Nine Nether Underworld, terrifying beyond bounds.
In an instant, his entire person exuded a powerful aura!
"You are talking nonsense! I wouldn't mind making you shut up forever!"
Emperor Qinwu jumped in fright. The expression on his face froze, and his breathing stopped for a few seconds!
The gaze he fixed on Qin Xiao was full of astonishment and incomprehension.
Hadn't he just said a few words of education?
Why was Qin Xiao throwing such a huge temper?
Could it be that what he said was wrong?
The facts were clearly just like that!
At this, Emperor Qinwu also became angry.
"Qin Xiao! I am kindly and well-meaningly reasoning with you, why do you have this attitude!"
"Let's not talk about anything else for now. Just speaking of you slandering Rushuang, is that not your fault!"
Hearing this, Qin Xiao immediately laughed.
"You haven't even gone to see, how do you know I am wrong?"
His voice carried playfulness and ridicule.
Emperor Qinwu was so angry his face flushed red, his head practically smoking, almost unable to catch his breath.
Damn it!
This rebellious son actually hoped his own sister would encounter such a shameful thing.
He was completely enraged!
"Good, good, good! Qin Xiao!"
"If such a thing hasn't happened, you will apologize to all of us! And hand the throne over to Qin Yu!"
Emperor Qinwu glared fiercely at Qin Xiao, his teeth grinding together as he spoke sternly, word by word.
"If I lose, I will relinquish my military power, move into the Serene Palace, give all power to you, and never meddle in your affairs from now on!"
Hearing this, the crowd's eyes widened.
Moving into the Serene Palace, how was that any different from the Cold Palace?
Empress Dowager Wen wanted to offer a few words of persuasion.
But Emperor Qinwu waved his hand and turned to leave.
He didn't care whether Qin Xiao would agree or not. With a flick of his sleeves, he led his people toward the back mountain of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple.
The moment he turned around.
The anger on his face dissipated, and the joy at the corners of his mouth could hardly be suppressed.
By saying those words today, he had Qin Xiao completely trapped.
As for losing?
Absolutely impossible!
How could his precious daughter possibly do such a thing?
Using his head to think about it, it would absolutely never happen.
He didn't care whether Qin Xiao agreed or not.
Anyway, the words were spoken, and the bet was established.
Now everyone knew about it. Once Qin Xiao broke the agreement, he would have a justified reason to let Qin Yu openly and legitimately ascend the throne as Emperor.
Compared to Qin Xiao, he doted on Qin Yu much more.
Who asked Qin Yu to be raised by his side since childhood and be obedient in everything?
One was a good child, and the other was a bad child.
Emperor Qinwu chose the former.
Qin Xiao watched Emperor Qinwu's retreating back, a faint smile playing on his lips.
Beside him, Lu Fengxian and Jia Xu wore expressions of utter confusion.
Your Majesty, why don't we slaughter everyone here so that no one will ever know about the wager?
Jia Xu swept his gloomy gaze across the crowd.
Clearly, he was greatly displeased that Emperor Qinwu had played a trick on Qin Xiao.
Qin Xiao waved his hand with an amused expression.
Let's go. Follow him and see what happens.
Having said that, he stepped forward and walked away.
Lu Fengxian scratched his head and hurried after him.
Only Jia Xu was left standing frozen in place, a look of profound shock washing over his face.
He had already guessed the general idea of what was going on.
Could it be that Qin Rushuang really...

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
