The madness on Tuoba Xiangtai's face grew increasingly intense, as if all the years of suppression and grievances had completely erupted in this very moment.
"Luan'er is not only the Empress of Great Yu, she is my woman!"
"My woman!!!"
"How dare you hurl insults at her so recklessly?"
"The mockery, the teasing, the slander, the insults... I have remembered every single word."
"I endured it all, cursing right along with you, but do you know how much my heart ached?"
"Do you know how much I wanted to hack you to pieces and feed you to the dogs?"
Tuoba Xiangtai spoke faster and faster, his expression becoming increasingly ferocious.
Tuoba Ashina and the Eldest Prince watched him with faces full of terror.
Aside from the shock of never having seen Tuoba Xiangtai with such a look, there was an even more important question...
Wasn't having Tuoba Xiangtai marry Empress Xiao Mingzhao just a scheme of their barbarian tribe?!
How...
How could there be this kind of affection between Tuoba Xiangtai and Xiao Mingzhao?
Even if there was affection, it shouldn't be like this!
The people of Yu knew that a real man should have three wives and four concubines.
Their grassland nobles naturally knew this as well.
It was just a woman!
Meant either to be used for exploitation, or to be worn like a mere garment.
How...
Could he be so insane over one?
"Now, my wish has finally come true!" As if he had finished venting, Tuoba Xiangtai's expression gradually returned to normal. His tone was calm, and he wore a smile.
"Those people are all dead!"
"And those who aren't, I remember them all."
"One by one, I will use the most brutal punishments on the grasslands to let them know the consequences of insulting my woman!"
"After that, I will go to the capital."
"The capital of Great Yu!"
"To marry Luan'er!"
As if thinking of something wonderful, a look of profound happiness appeared on Tuoba Xiangtai's face.
"I will marry Luan'er in the capital!"
"With ten miles of red dowry, and the empire as a betrothal gift!"
"I can imagine such a scene!"
"Once Luan'er and I are married..."
Tuoba Xiangtai continued to describe his beautiful future like a sleepwalker, his tone filled with an intense sense of happiness, smooth and steady.
"I will bind Luan'er with iron chains and imprison her within the imperial palace. I'll make her my obedient little puppy, so she will stay by my side forever!"
"If she tries to run, I will break her legs so she can never escape."
"I also want to gouge out her eyes, so that in her eyes, there will only be me!"
"I won't mistreat Luan'er."
"Whatever Luan'er wants, I will give her!"
"If she wants the barbarians and the people of Yu to form an eternal alliance and the world to become one family, I will grant it to her."
"As long as she is willing to stay obediently by my side, I will satisfy her every wish!"
"In the past, I lacked the power and couldn't give her what she wanted, but now, I have it!"
Tuoba Ashina and the Eldest Prince both looked utterly horrified.
They knew they were in a situation where death was certain.
Their lives were hanging by a thread, and they no longer cared about living or dying.
But looking at Tuoba Xiangtai's current state and hearing him say these things so calmly, they only felt constant shudders in their hearts.
Almost simultaneously, a single word popped into both of their minds.
Psychopath!
How could there be such a psychopathic freak in the bloodline of their barbarian tribe?
And to think that such a freak had become the Lord of the Grasslands?!
Tuoba Ashina couldn't help but want to disgust him, wanting to let out a cold sneer, but no matter how hard he tried, his voice still trembled.
"Tuoba Xiangtai, stop dreaming."
"Right now, you only have a mere tens of thousands of men. Our barbarian forces have just suffered a crushing defeat and barely have time to rest and recover, yet you still want to go to the capital?"
"You're just going to your death!"
"I'll be waiting in the underworld for you to meet your doom!"
Tuoba Xiangtai didn't mind in the slightest.
He merely waved his folding fan and chuckled softly, "Father, this is where you don't understand."
"The Great Yu's eight-hundred-year empire is like a centipede that dies but never falls. If we were to fight them head-on, let alone fifty thousand men, what use would even five hundred thousand be?"
"We wouldn't even be able to breach Shanhe City!"
Saying this, Tuoba Xiangtai smiled again. "Getting into the capital has never been about how large the army is, but rather..."
"Whether someone is willing to open the gates for me!"
Tuoba Ashina and the Eldest Prince were both stunned for a moment.
Then, they realized a terrifying fact.
Empress Xiao Mingzhao was waiting with a ten-mile red dowry!
Could this rebellious son truly enter the capital?
"Father, Brother!" Tuoba Xiangtai said softly again, "After talking with you for so long, I've pretty much poured out all the secrets in my heart."
"I feel much better now."
"Thank you for giving me a chance to vent!"
"However, I still have to send the two of you to heaven!"
"Who told you to..."
"...insult Luan'er in the past?!"
After speaking, Tuoba Xiangtai sat back down on his tiger chair, gently fanning himself. Then, the frantic curses of Tuoba Ashina and the Eldest Prince came to an abrupt halt!
Two corpses fell to the ground.
Tuoba Xiangtai didn't even spare their corpses.
He ordered, "Chop them into pieces and bury them right here!"
"Since you insulted Luan'er, you should serve as an example to everyone, letting them know the consequences of disrespecting Luan'er!"
Soon, everything was cleaned up.
Tuoba Xiangtai still wore that unperturbed face, so plain that it barely held any expression, and indifferently ordered: "Pass down the command to assemble all the troops!"
"We..."
"...are preparing to march south to celebrate my grand wedding with Luan'er!"
...
