Chapter 340: Power and respect are two different things!
Ying Heng's gaze was fixed upwards, a strange light flashing in his eyes, and a new plan had already emerged in his mind.
When Kaia returned, his face was filled with unconcealable joy.
The source of all this excitement was very simple: he had taken everything from a businessman!
At first, Kaia thought those items were worthless and planned to have his men destroy them all.
However, after taking a closer look at the goods, he immediately changed his mind.
It turned out that there were many interesting toys hidden in it. Kaia played with them for a while and became addicted to them.
It must be admitted that the goods of this Qin merchant are indeed excellent, especially the thing called Rubik's Cube, which Kaia never gets tired of.
On the other hand, being able to seize property from the Qin people also symbolized a kind of honor for him.
According to news from the palace, the second-in-command of Rome, Prince Kate, and the caravan he led suffered a disastrous defeat in an operation, and even the items they carried were looted by the Qin people!
Prince Kate's miserable appearance was undoubtedly a great humiliation for the Romans.
Kaia felt that he had saved face for Rome, but when he told his father about it, he was severely scolded.
The Duke of Rose obviously realized the seriousness of the matter. He warned his son:
"You have to understand that even the top caravan led by our empire's second most powerful man, Prince Kate, can't gain any benefit from Daqin. Do you think you can do it?"
"If the things of the Qin Dynasty were so easy to obtain, Prince Kate would not have come away empty-handed!"
Duke Rose looked worried and continued, "Are you really not sure? Are you sure that there is no one behind the caravan? If the Qin Empire sends out strong men, the relationship between the two countries will deteriorate because of this incident, and the consequences will be disastrous!"
Of course, the Duke of Rose did this just because he hoped his son would not act rashly.
As for the Qin caravan and the powerful forces behind it, he didn't really take them seriously.
The Duke firmly believed that Prince Kate's failure was mostly due to his stupidity.
Kaia retorted, "I think Prince Kate's defeat stems from his stupidity, not the strength of his opponent."
"You kid, be tactful with your words and don't always take yourself for granted."
"After all, Prince Kate is the second-highest ranked prince in the empire, and his strength is unmatched in Rome. Even if you don't respect him and think he's stupid, you should understand that his strength is enough to make him stand out from the crowd!"
However, although the Duke of Rose said this, he actually had other plans in mind.
Power and respect are two different things.
"Okay, go down and reflect on this."
Wait! There's a sound!
Even though he had decided to let Kaia leave, at this moment, he heard a mixture of laughter from men and women outside the window. The voices were frivolous and indifferent, as if they never took his castle seriously.
"This glass looks really insignificant and rough. It might break with a slight touch. If we move in in the future, we have to renovate the house and replace all of this!"
"As for the decorations of the castle, I think they are really ugly. If possible, I will replace them all and make it look brand new."
Then, two clear female voices followed closely and echoed.
"I think the castle needs a complete renovation so that it can look beautiful. It is indeed a good choice for a holiday."
"Yes, there is the sea nearby, and watching the sea will be a real pleasure."
The boy immediately responded: "Yes, I agree, this place is suitable as a vacation home."
Another woman said, "Then we should ask the people in the castle if they are willing to sell it to us."
The Duke of Rose was furious when he heard these comments about his castle.
This castle is a treasure passed down from generation to generation in his family. How could he allow others to slander it like this?
He immediately rushed out of the room and looked towards the source of the sound. Finally, he saw a young man followed by two maids, who were looking at his castle as if they were appreciating an exhibit, which made him extremely angry.
As the supreme duke of the Roman Empire, how could he tolerate such an insult?
Once upon a time, if someone looked down on the Duke of Rose, he would cut off the person's head without hesitation and use it as a toilet!
For him, dignity and honor as a Roman were above all else.
So he roared at the young man: "Who are you? How dare you be so presumptuous here!"
In the sky, the young man heard this and immediately turned around and looked directly at the Rose Duke in front of him. He was Ying Heng.
After learning the location of the Duke of Rose, Ying Heng brought his maid to investigate. He did not expect the castle to look like this, so he suppressed the urge to take action.
He originally thought that this duke was extremely powerful, perhaps a strong man in the realm of heaven and man, but he didn't expect that he was just a mediocre person.
After all, the strength of an early Heavenly Man Realm cultivator is not so different from that of a terrestrial immortal that it can be easily crushed.
Ying Heng felt that if he showed no mercy when taking action, this person would probably be reduced to ashes in an instant.
Since his strength is not worth mentioning, Ying Heng can just take this castle for himself and use it as his private residence.
After all, it was indeed inconvenient for the teacher to mingle with those rough people in the inn, not to mention that the smell on them made Ying Heng feel quite uncomfortable!
Besides, what man doesn't dream of owning a medieval castle?
Now that his dream has come true, he can also fight for the rights and interests of his own caravan, which is killing two birds with one stone. Naturally, Ying Heng will not miss it.
"Hello, I am an ordinary businessman from Daqin. I came here for a small profit. As far as I know, you seem to have moved my caravan members and caused a lot of economic losses. So I am here to claim compensation."
Ying Heng was smiling broadly, floating in the air.
Upon hearing this, the Duke of Rose realized that the young man came prepared.
His expression immediately turned serious, but Kaia beside him was just the opposite, appearing unusually arrogant.
He felt that the young man in front of him did not recognize his father's strength.
Kaia knew that his father was one of the strongest men in Rome.
Although the initial stage of the Heavenly Man Realm may sound weak, how many people in the Roman Empire could reach it?
It can be said that fathers are rare.
Kaiya looked up at Ying Heng in the sky and laughed out loud: "Haha! I didn't expect the Great Qin Caravan to send someone to look for me!"
"How dare you come here to ask for things? This is the dukedom!"
"Everything here belongs to us. It is an honor for you to come here to do business."
"Instead of appreciating this honor, you demand compensation from us! How shameless of you!"
Kaiya's eyes slid towards the two maids behind Ying Heng. They looked quite attractive to him, especially the woman in green, who was charming and behaved very elegantly.
He felt that such a woman would be perfect to be his maid.
Kaiya had imagined them serving him, and with a smile on his face, he looked at them and said:
"Two beauties in heaven! Are you interested in becoming my maids?"
"Our Rose Duke family is prosperous, and my father is a rare rival in the early days of the Roman Empire."
"As long as you are willing to become my maids, when we conquer Daqin in the future, I will give you precious land and let you have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life!"
Qing Yi and Zi Yi almost laughed out loud when they heard this. The early stage of the Heavenly Man Realm was like a laughing stock in their eyes.
After all, Ying Heng's strength has reached the level of a terrestrial immortal, and dealing with those in the celestial realm is as easy as cutting melons and vegetables.
