"The eldest prince wants to come and plead for that idiot?"
Before Xue Qinghe could speak, Dugu Yan spoke first.
"It's not really a plea." Xue Qinghe sat down.
"What Bars did yesterday was indeed wrong."
"But Poison Douluo rarely walks outside, and there is not much discussion about him in the spirit master world. The Jade Phosphorus Snake spirit is so rare, they really didn't mean to offend you."
Dugu Yan is Dugu Bo's granddaughter. This fact is only circulated among the soul masters in Tiandou City, and it gradually spread from the Tiandou Royal Academy. It has not been reported nationwide. Even if the outside world knows about Poison Douluo, they don't know that he has a granddaughter.
Even though Dugu Yan revealed her identity at the time and said that her grandfather was Poison Douluo, but when it comes to registration numbers, not everyone will believe you just because you say it.
If someone randomly jumps out on the street and says he is the descendant of a Spirit Hall elder, would everyone believe it?
Bars was an arrogant man and was angry at the time. As for his guards, they only knew how to obey orders.
What's more, how many Titled Douluo are there in the entire continent?
It is really hard to believe that this kind of legendary figure has never been heard of, and no important person has come out to prove his existence.
"So, they can be forgiven?" Dugu Yan said.
"That's not what I meant." Xue Qinghe said.
"Bars seldom goes out and has been spoiled since childhood. It was his first time in Tiandou City and he was indeed a little naughty."
"I have already taught him a lesson, and he has realized his mistake and sincerely wants to apologize to you."
"Sincerely?" Dugu Yan raised her eyebrows.
"Why doesn't he come himself, but instead asks you, the eldest prince, to help him lobby?"
"Of course he is here too." Seeing that Dugu Yan showed signs of giving in, Xue Qinghe quickly stood up, waved to the outside of the store, and called in Bals who was waiting outside.
"After Bars knew that he had offended Senior Poison Douluo, he became very anxious. However, after what happened just now, he did not dare to rush to your house to apologize. He could only ask me to introduce him to you."
"I was indeed reckless in what happened yesterday, but I really had no intention of offending Poison Douluo. I hope Miss Dugu will forgive me." Bars nervously lowered his posture to the lowest level.
Dugu Yan was unmoved, his expression remained cold, and he didn't even bother to pay attention.
Seeing this, Xue Qinghe had no choice but to speak again, "Yanzi, Bars is also my cousin. I am also responsible for him coming to Tiandou City and doing this. I apologize to you here."
As he spoke, Xue Qinghe bowed solemnly.
"Crown Prince, you..." Dugu Yan hesitated.
After all, it was Xue Qinghe who stepped forward to help them yesterday, otherwise, I really don't know what would happen next.
However, she couldn't let go of this guy just like that!
"Yanzi, I'm not trying to excuse Bars. He did something wrong. It's up to you whether he gets beaten or punished today. I just ask you to spare his life for my sake and not tell Poison Douluo about this." Xue Qinghe pleaded.
He could still plead for Dugu Yan, but if he reported the matter to Dugu Bo, he would be completely finished!
Everyone knows what kind of person Dugu Bo is. Once he knows that Dugu Yan was bullied and almost got into trouble, there is absolutely no way that Bals will survive!
"This..." Dugu Yan hesitated for a moment and turned to look at Xuan Ming.
"What do you think we should do?"
Xuan Ming was stunned. "Do I still have a say in this matter?"
"Of course, I escaped danger yesterday. I was just scared at most. This idiot didn't know my grandfather's name, so it can't be considered an intentional offense. The eldest prince saved us, so for his sake, I will not pursue the matter." Dugu Yan said.
"But you were badly injured yesterday because of this guy."
"What do you think we should do with him?"
Hearing this, Bals, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, became nervous again.
Xue Qinghe had nothing to say at this time. He had already reached his limit by persuading Dugu Yan to give him face. If he said more, it would be too much.
"Are you sure you want me to say it?" Xuan Ming aske
"My words are rude."
"No matter how unpleasant it sounds, he has to listen." Dugu Yan glanced at Bals.
The latter quickly lowered his head.
"Well, it's not about taking any action, but I have a question." Xuan Ming said.
"Just now, the eldest prince and this prince have been saying that what happened yesterday was ultimately because they didn't recognize the Green Phosphorus Snake spirit and didn't know the name of Poison Douluo."
"They are apologizing because of Poison Douluo and because you are Poison Douluo's granddaughter, not because of what happened yesterday."
"They feel that they were wrong. They were wrong for provoking you, the granddaughter of a Titled Douluo, not for what they did yesterday."
"If what happened yesterday happened to two children from ordinary families, then it would be correct, right?"
"This..." Dugu Yan was stunned.
Ye Lan and others in the store were speechless for a moment.
After all, even though it sounds harsh, it's the truth.
"In that case, I don't have a noble birth, and I'm not a relative of Poison Douluo. I have a low status, so it doesn't matter even if I'm beaten to death. Why do you ask me such a thing?" Xuan Ming said.
"I have no right to speak here."
"That's not what I meant." Dugu Yan said quickly.
"But that's what they mean." Xuan Ming said.
"They were looking for you and Poison Douluo, not me, yet you asked me to decide what to do."
"You've already said you won't pursue the matter, what can I say? What can I dare to say?"
"Although I almost died, what else can I say except to forgive His Royal Highness generously?"
"Could it be possible to kill him?"
"I..." Dugu Yan was a little anxious, but didn't know how to start.
"Miss Dugu has already given up on the matter. Who do you think you are and why are you being so aggressive here?" Bals couldn't help but say.
"You are just a slave, don't take yourself too seriously..."
"Bars!" Xue Qinghe interrupted heavily.
"Apologize to this little brother."
"I apologized to him?" Bals looked incredulous.
"Qinghe, are you serious?"
"Apologize!" Xue Qinghe was almost unable to hold back his curse.
Slave? Are you a pig brain? ?
Whether it was the strange field yesterday or Dugu Yan's embarrassing attitude now, it showed that this kid couldn't be a slave! Moreover, Dugu Yan had been in Tiandou City all the time, and there was no record of her leaving the city recently.
This kid who suddenly appeared had a close relationship with her, which meant that this kid was most likely brought back by Dugu Bo! Even if she didn't take this kid seriously, she had to give Dugu Bo enough face!
"Okay." Bals looked at Xuanming very reluctantly.
"I..."
"Alright." Dugu Yan's face turned completely cold.
"Your Highness, you have seen his attitude. I think there is no need to continue talking."
"I remember your kindness in saving me."
"Similarly, my grandfather will know what he did."
