Chapter 206 Arrest
Facing the Soul Emperor's oppressive aura, Huo Yuhao calmly replied, "I am."
The middle-aged man said coldly, "You are suspected of assaulting and injuring a member of the royal family. Come with us to assist with the investigation."
As he spoke, he took out a pair of golden handcuffs. The fluctuations of his soul power noticeably increased. If Huo Yuhao dared to resist, he would immediately be attacked by the combined forces of the six.
Huo Yuhao smiled calmly, extended his hands, and said, "I am an exchange student from Shrek Academy. Please inform our supervising teachers. Otherwise, you may not be able to bear some responsibility."
However, the middle-aged man ignored Huo Yuhao's suggestion. With two clicks, the golden handcuffs instantly fastened to Huo Yuhao's wrists, and a powerful restraining force emanated from the handcuffs.
Seeing Huo Yuhao restrained, Wang Shaojie strode up to Huo Yuhao, his eyes filled with malice.
"To reiterate, as an exchange student, Master Hongchen has an obligation to ensure the personal safety of exchange students. I advise you to stop being so naive."
However, before Huo Yuhao could finish speaking, Wang Shaojie grabbed Huo Yuhao's hair and slammed his right fist heavily into Huo Yuhao's abdomen.
hiss……
Huo Yuhao gasped, his body suddenly curling up as if he had suffered a severe injury.
After all, to someone unaware of the situation, it would seem normal that Huo Yuhao, being only a third-ring cultivator, couldn't withstand an attack from a fifth-ring cultivator.
Taking a deep breath, Huo Yuhao said sarcastically, "Didn't you eat?"
It should be noted that Huo Yuhao's physical attributes are at the Soul Saint level. Wang Shaojie's punch was practically like a tickle, and in fact, it didn't even break through Huo Yuhao's defense.
However, he still had to act out the part he was supposed to. Huo Yuhao wasn't the type to suffer losses easily, and being too quiet at this point would be inappropriate.
This naturally angered Wang Shaojie, who then proceeded to punch and kick Huo Yuhao again.
Huo Yuhao, "bound and sealed by handcuffs," was naturally powerless to fight back and could only curl up on the ground to minimize the damage he suffered.
After fighting for a while, Huo Yuhao didn't suffer any serious injuries, but Wang Shaojie stopped punching and kicking first, panting heavily.
"You think you're so tough? What good is being tough? In this world, you need connections and strength. I'll show you the power of the Ten Great Tortures of the Sun and Moon! Take me away."
A smug look finally appeared on Wang Shaojie's cold face.
In fact, Wang Shaojie hoped that Huo Yuhao would resist. In Wang Shaojie's view, if Huo Yuhao dared to attack the royal guards, then even if he was killed here, no one could say anything.
However, Huo Yuhao did not put up any resistance, which greatly disappointed Wang Shaojie.
At this moment, Huo Yuhao's voice rang out again: "The strength is not bad, it feels quite comfortable..."
"you!"
Wang Shaojie's face turned ashen, and he was about to continue his attack when the middle-aged man in the lead stopped him, saying in a deep voice, "I'll take this man back to the disciplinary team and teach him a lesson. But not here. Don't forget where you are."
"Yes. Cousin, you have to be ruthless. I'll go with you."
Wang Shaojie rubbed his hands together, eager to give Huo Yuhao a good beating. He felt that the punches and kicks he had just received weren't enough, and he wanted to personally torture Huo Yuhao.
The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "No. You'd better stay at the academy. That way, you can say this has nothing to do with you. You're not a child anymore, how can you still be so brainless? Even the Red Dust Hall Master has spoken up for this kid, and the higher-ups have agreed. If you get involved any more, do you want to be punished? Just be honest and pretend you don't know anything about this. I know what to do."
"Alright." Although Wang Shaojie was somewhat reluctant, he still agreed; after all, he wasn't completely stupid. He glanced around to make sure no one was watching, then quickly left.
The middle-aged man approached Huo Yuhao, smiled calmly, and said, "Sorry, young brother, you're just unlucky. Do you think you can mess with members of the royal family? You're from Shrek Academy, right? Let's go back and have a good talk."
The middle-aged man's tone seemed gentle, but it concealed a chilling coldness.
"I just hope you won't regret it."
A Soul King next to him slapped Huo Yuhao on the head and said coldly, "You still dare to act tough in front of our Royal Guard. I think you're tired of living. Captain, go back and hand him over to me."
The middle-aged man, whom Wang Shaojie called his cousin, waved his hand and said, "Let's go, we'll talk about it when we get back."
The two Soul Kings shoved Huo Yuhao forcefully, and Huo Yuhao cooperated by following them outside. His expression was somewhat indifferent, but he was not flustered at all.
The Royal Guard is not open to the public on a regular basis; its main function is to monitor members of the royal family and various events occurring within the imperial city. They report directly to the royal family of the Sun Moon Empire.
The captain of this special envoy is named Xu Mochen, whose father is a prince who oversees the imperial clan and wields considerable power. He is a true direct descendant of the royal family. Someone like Wang Shaojie, on the other hand, is merely a collateral member of the royal family. He was only invited because of some connection with Xu Mochen.
Xu Mochen's appointment as captain of the Royal Guard wasn't solely due to family connections; his own cultivation was also quite impressive. Furthermore, he was a Soul Master, a Soul Master skilled in using Soul Tools, not just a Soul Master. This was because he possessed a powerful Martial Soul from the direct lineage of the royal family. Within the Royal Guard, his strength could be considered among the top tier.
As Huo Yuhao was about to step out of the gates of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, seeing that the other party still hadn't sent anyone to inform Jing Hongchen, he had no choice but to speak again:
"Think it over. If I hadn't told you the specifics, you could have gotten away with attacking me. But I've revealed the power behind me, and you still attacked. That's disrespecting those people, and it's not something you can easily fool."
Looking at Huo Yuhao's calm expression, Xu Mochen felt a little uneasy. After all, this young man was from Shrek Academy.
When Wang Shaojie found him, he said that he had been ambushed by a teenager from Shrek Academy. The teenager seemed to be a rare spirit-type soul master. Under the ambush, he didn't have time to use his own abilities, and the other party's cultivation level was only around three rings.
Shrek Academy's reputation as the top academy on the continent carries immense influence in any country. Xu Mochen's trip was partly out of curiosity; he wanted to see just how outstanding Shrek's students were. Otherwise, he wouldn't have bothered with Wang Shaojie's affairs.
Huo Yuhao did look very young, but Xu Mochen clearly sensed that this young man was not simple.
He remained calm despite facing so many people. Although he had made threats, he did not curse after being hit by Wang Shaojie. He was composed and even had the mood to make sarcastic remarks. He must have something to rely on. Perhaps this guy who was only a third-ring fellow was not so simple.
Thinking of this, he became more cautious and said to one of his subordinates, "Go and tell the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy that we have brought this student named Huo Yuhao back to assist in the investigation."
His subordinates were somewhat puzzled, but seeing Xu Mochen's cold gaze, they dared not ask any further questions and hurried off.
