Chapter 148: Look Down on Third Prince

Translator: Misty Cloud Editor: Misty Cloud

"You're injured by someone?" Nangong Lie seemed as if he's heard some fairy tale and his entire body perked up to look at Baili Jia Jue's direction with disbelief.

When had the person known as Ghost Palace's Third Prince ever been hit?

Even if he'd lost martial qi.

Nobody dared to even make noise in front of him.

It's not because of any other reason except that this person's methods were too cruel!

So ruthless that even those people from the four great clans didn't dare to act without thinking.

Moreover, he knew how to hold a grudge!

He didn't like to immediately put things in order, but would later slowly make up for it knife by knife!

Those shadow secret guards who tried to assassinate him were a specific example.

Don't be deceived by how calm and unhurried he seemed when he was at Armament City.

After he returned, he'd visited the palace, merely a visit like that had alarmed the four great clans and eight influential families.

He didn't say who sent out those secret guards and only said that he'd find the evidence among these people. This made those people totally dumbstruck, but could only look on helplessly as he investigated them one by one.

Each time a family was investigated, a little something would always be revealed.

The leaders of the four great clans had no choice but to spend more money to take care of matters. What they wanted was face, especially for their offsprings. There were some things which, if people in the capitol knew, it'd undoubtedly become the common people's laughingstock. That would be more unbearable than to suffer a beating.

Right now, none of them dared to visit the brothels, precisely because they feared that Third Prince might be unhappy and directly send people to those beds!

Forget thinking that the Third Prince was as aloof as a god and wouldn't interfere with these matters!

By this time, there'd already been two elders who were investigated in this way, investigations which traumatized them so much, they could no longer get a hard on no matter who their partner was!

Think about it. Fundamentally, in the midst of happily performing the act was when a man felt ecstasy, also when his guard was down, yet at exactly that moment, a sword suddenly appeared at his head, also with countless numbers of shadow guards motionlessly floating in the air. Even though they haven't touched a single hair, and they only watched with lingering gazes, merely thinking of this scene was enough. Nangong Lie's body filled with goosebumps.

That's why he couldn't believe that this kind of man would take a beating.

You could kill him and he'd still feel it's impossible!

There must be something going on!

Based on his understanding of Ah Jue, the guy must be up to something!

Nangong Lie watched his friend's calm appearance, and was just about to open his mouth, when he was interrupted by Baili Jia Jue. "There were four of them and only one of me, is it strange that I'm injured?"

"Of course...:

Nangong Lie originally was going to say 'it's too strange', but after he saw the look, his adam's apple couldn't help but shake as he stiffly changed his words. "Not strange."
