Chapter 178 Gods Don’t Favor Fools
Feeling the cold gaze of Emperor Xue Ye, Xue Beng felt disheartened.
"Tell me, why are you here?" Emperor Xue Ye asked in a deep voice.
Xue Beng came to his senses and saw the changeable expression on Emperor Xue Ye's face, and his mood gradually calmed down.
Emperor Xue Ye did not scold him right away, but instead asked him why he appeared here.
Xue Beng was no fool, and he quickly realized that Emperor Xue Ye did not want to directly label him as an evil soul master.
This concerns the reputation of the royal family. A prince associating with an evil soul master is a major blow to the dignity of the royal family.
After figuring this out, Xue Beng felt a glimmer of hope in his heart, and he quickly ran to Emperor Xue Ye, knelt down and cried, "Father, I just want to contribute to the prison break case, so I am here."
"I thought that those evil spirit masters were able to ransack our royal prison, so I'm afraid they won't let go of the Spirit Hall's prison either, so I came here!"
Xue Beng spoke with great emotion, and his poor acting made Emperor Xue Ye's mouth twitch slightly.
Emperor Xue Ye knew very well what kind of person Xue Beng was, and his lies were full of loopholes.
"Is that so? Next time you want to contribute to the royal family, you must be well prepared! Otherwise, being regarded as an accomplice of the evil soul master like you are now will really undermine the dignity of the royal family!" Emperor Xue Ye responded to Xue Beng's words.
The platinum bishop Sarath sneered and said, "The emperor may think that our Wuhun Hall is a three-year-old child?"
"We saw with our own eyes that Xue Beng and the evil spirit master were in league with each other. Could it be that the emperor wanted to kill the evil spirit master suddenly?"
Emperor Xue Ye's expression turned gloomy when he heard this, but he still lied with his eyes open: "Bishop Sarath is joking. Although Xue Beng is a playboy, he is not the kind of person who would associate with an evil soul master!"
"Really? Then it shouldn't be a problem for us to search Avalanche's soul guide, right?" Salas said coldly.
Emperor Xue Ye narrowed his eyes. He didn't know whether Xue Beng was really in league with the evil soul master, nor did he know whether there was anything shameful in Xue Beng's soul guide.
Sarath's request was not excessive, but Emperor Xue Ye was unsure.
"Now it's our Spirit Hall's prison that has been robbed. Xue Beng is the most important suspect at the scene. Could it be that the Emperor doesn't even dare to let me check the soul guide?" Salas pressed on.
Emperor Xue Ye's expression became increasingly ugly. After a long while, he said to Xue Beng, "Show your soul guide to Bishop Sarath!"
Upon hearing this, Xue Beng's face turned pale. Seeing this scene, Emperor Xue Ye's heart sank.
"Prince Avalanche? Are you feeling guilty?" Salas looked at Avalanche with a scrutinizing look in his eyes.
"Father! I really didn't..." Xue Beng wanted to argue.
"Take out your soul guide!" Emperor Xue Ye interrupted Xue Beng with an angry shout. His cold eyes froze Xue Beng.
A few seconds later, Xue Beng took out his soul guide in a daze.
There contained the blood demon ritual given to him by the original god.
That was his reliance on becoming emperor, but now it is pushing him into the abyss.
Sarath took the soul guide and quickly found the Blood Demon Ritual.
After turning the pages and seeing the contents inside, Sarath's expression became serious. He also saw the words "Original God".
"Emperor Xue Ye, I didn't expect that Prince Xue Avalanche was also involved in the evil soul master gang that has been robbing the prison recently."
Sarath sneered as he handed the Blood Demon Ritual to Emperor Xue Ye. "Blood Demon Ritual, a sacrifice to the so-called Original God. It seems that the Original God Cult that has been making a lot of noise recently is also related to Prince Xue Avalanche!"
Emperor Xue Ye took the book handed over by Sarath and glanced through it.
The sacrificial rituals involving flesh and blood, as well as the so-called original god, left him completely unable to refute.
"Xue Beng! I thought you were just a bit of a dandy, but I didn't expect you to dare to do such a treasonous thing!" Emperor Xue Ye was furious. Xue Beng was completely panicked at this time. He knew that if he was identified as an evil spirit master, he would have no chance of becoming the emperor.
Not only that, he will probably have to spend the rest of his life in prison. The Spirit Hall will not let him off easily, and Emperor Xue Ye will not protect him.
The more Xue Beng thought about it, the more desperate he became. In a trance, he looked at the book in Emperor Xue Ye's hands and suddenly thought of the Original God.
Suddenly, he seemed to have found a life-saving straw.
I am the messenger chosen by the original God, and God will never abandon his apostles!
Under the shocked gazes of Emperor Xue Ye and Sarath, Xue Beng simply prostrated himself on the ground, knocking his head repeatedly and shouting:
"Original God! Please save me, I am your messenger! You can definitely save me!"
Neither Salas nor Emperor Xue Ye reacted for a while. For a long while, Salas looked at Avalanche lying on the ground with a somewhat ridiculous look.
He never believed in the so-called original god. The Spirit Hall only believed in angel gods!
Emperor Xue Ye's face turned red, and he wished he could slap Xue Beng to death.
The strange looks from all around would fall on him and Xue Beng from time to time, as if wondering why Emperor Xue Ye would give birth to such a shameful prince.
Just when Emperor Xue Ye wanted to stop the avalanche, the avalanche stopped by itself and looked ahead with an ecstatic look on his face.
In Avalanche's sight, the dark figure appeared before him.
God really came to save him!
"Original God! You really came to save me!" Avalanche shouted.
Emperor Xueye and Sarath both looked in the direction where the avalanche was looking, but there was nothing there.
The avalanche crawled towards the black shadow, and just when the avalanche was about to touch the black shadow, the black shadow disappeared.
Xue Beng stood there in a daze, and then he panicked the next second.
"Where is God? Why did he disappear?" Avalanche shouted like crazy.
"Enough!" Emperor Xue Ye roared in intolerance.
Avalanche came to his senses and saw everyone around him looking at him as if he were a clown.
"Emperor Xue Ye, Xue Beng is involved with the evil spirit master forces and has robbed the prison of our Spirit Hall. We must take Xue Beng away and find out the truth!"
Salas called on a group of Spirit Hall guards to directly lift up the avalanche, and then he looked at Emperor Xue Ye who had an extremely ugly expression.
"It shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Emperor Xue Ye clenched his fists and nodded with a grim face.
With the approval of Emperor Xue Ye, the guards left with the avalanche.
"Let me go! I am the one favored by the gods! The future emperor of the Tiandou Empire! How dare you do this to me!" Xue Beng roared at the top of his lungs.
The guards ignored it and did not stop what they were doing.
Xue Beng still wanted to struggle, but at this moment, a voice sounded in his heart, "The gods will not favor a fool."
Avalanche's struggle stopped instantly. The voice was exactly the same as that of the "God".
"The gods do not favor fools..." he muttered to himself, and at this moment he seemed to understand the truth.
The so-called gods never existed from the beginning, and he was fooled.
