In Douluo Continent, his martial soul mutated into Blue Silver Grass.

Chapter 271 Lin Hai's Design, Avalanche's Exile

The original timeline's plan for Qian Renxue to invade the Heaven Dou Empire failed, and Bibi Dong was partly responsible for it. Thinking about it now is chilling.

Lin Hai had long harbored a bold prediction: in the end, the one who would truly influence whether Qian Renxue could seize power in the Heaven Dou Empire would be none other than Bibi Dong.

Bibi Dong, that love-obsessed woman, is terrifying; her thoughts are terrifying too.

"That's settled then. You don't need to do anything now, just focus on your job and leave the rest to me!"

"I will utterly ruin Avalanche's reputation!"

Don't say Lin Hai is cruel. If you think about it carefully, Xue Beng has committed many evil deeds over the years. If he weren't the fourth prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, he would have died countless times over.

"I understand!" Qian Renxue, having been involved in politics for many years, knew that at this time, saying or doing more would only lead to more mistakes!

"Fourth Prince, what are we going to do today?" Beside Xue Beng was another son of a noble family in Tian Dou City. Because he was not destined for a title, he was also a playboy. Especially after following Xue Beng, the Fourth Prince of Tian Dou Empire, he has reached the peak of his life.

"We already ate at Tianxing Restaurant yesterday, let's try something different today!" They were already used to this kind of free meal.

"Alright!" The spoiled brats who followed the avalanche instantly understood.

The phrase "changing their tastes while wearing masks" was actually a coded message understood by this group of spoiled brats. "Changing their tastes" meant finding respectable women or pretty girls on the street—the latter part of the so-called "bullying men and women" scheme.

Such terms are common among this spoiled brat group. For example, being hungry means finding a high-class hotel to dine and dash; pointing at someone and saying "that kid" means he's about to take advantage of them; "this stuff is good" means he's interested in something and won't pay. There are many other such slang terms specific to this group. Naturally, street bullying is a frequent occurrence.

Lin Hai followed this group of people, watching them and waiting for the right opportunity.

What kind of timing?

You were obviously drunk when Avalanche was at that point, so it's normal for him to do some offensive things.

Day 1, no results! The spoiled brats led by Xue Beng went off to bully men and women.

The next day, they went out to make a ruckus in the bustling city and indulge in a feast.

On the third day, Lin Hai finally got his chance. On this day, Xue Beng and the other playboys went to a brothel.

When it was time to leave late at night, everyone was completely drunk. Well, what man who drinks at brothels doesn't drink until two or three in the morning?

Supported by a group of dissolute young nobles and ministers, Xue Beng staggered towards the Heavenly Dou Imperial City of the Heavenly Dou Empire.

When the guards saw Xue Beng and his group of spoiled brats slowly approaching, their faces remained expressionless, showing neither surprise nor joy; in fact, a hint of disdain flashed in their eyes.

That's it? And he's the fourth prince of the Heaven Dou Empire? Hmph! He's a disgrace to the Heaven Dou Empire!

The guards stepped aside to let Xue Beng in. Xue Beng's lackeys in the imperial city had been waiting for him for a long time. They immediately took Xue Beng and helped him up.

Although the avalanche was in a daze, for some reason, it suddenly looked up to look at the moon, only to see the contempt in the guard's eyes.

An avalanche surged within him!

"What kind of look is that?!" Avalanche shouted angrily.

"You're just a lowly guard, how dare you look at me like that? Don't you know who I am?!"

"You lowly commoner!" Xue Beng cursed, still not satisfied, and in a daze, he came to the guard and kicked him.

"unlucky!"

Then the avalanche swaggered away, leaving the guard speechless.

"Ha, as expected, your sins are grave. Then I shall be your retribution!"

After the Seventh Ring Road, Lin Hai's mental energy entered a completely new realm.

As Xue Beng was helped slowly towards his palace in the Heavenly Dou Imperial City, Lin Hai began to make his move.

Lin Hai's spiritual power spread out silently.

Before long, the avalanche, which was already in a daze, became even more dazed.

However, Lin Hai did not directly use his mental power to take control of Xue Beng's thoughts. Lin Hai only subtly influenced Xue Beng's ideas, similar to creating a dream, and aroused the desires in Xue Beng's heart.

"Get out of the way!" With that, Avalanche pushed away the two lackeys who were supporting him.

"Fourth Prince, Fourth Prince, are you alright?"

"Hehehe, in this Heavenly Dou Imperial Palace, who dares to lay a hand on me!" Xue Beng's words stunned the two lackeys who were originally worried about him.

"This prince is going for a stroll. You two lowly servants, get out of my way and don't spoil my good mood. If you dare follow me again, I'll break your legs."

"Avalanche," he mumbled drunkenly, before slowly walking forward.

This scene was also etched into Lin Hai's memory of the avalanche.

Lin Hai's spiritual power ignited the primal beast within Xue Beng's heart.

Then, guided by Lin Hai's every move, the avalanche was caught in the trap.

Following its primal instincts, the avalanche headed towards one of the palaces of the Emperor's favorite concubine.

……

The atmosphere in the Heavenly Dou Empire was somewhat somber the following day.

"..." Emperor Xueye sat on his high seat, his breathing quite rapid.

This was unusual for him; he usually just lay in bed recuperating. This time, he was genuinely angry.

He knew his good-for-nothing fourth son was a scoundrel, but he never imagined he had become this bad.

They actually committed adultery in the harem!!!

He's still alive on that snowy night! This unfilial son is already so impatient!

Just last night, an avalanche broke into the palace of Xueye's most favored concubine and, with extreme force, took advantage of her.

It was already morning when they were discovered. A maidservant of one of the concubines, during her daily wake-up call, found the scene. The avalanche and the concubine were both sprawled on their beds, their clothes scattered around them.

The palace maid, who was seeing such a scene for the first time, was also frightened and involuntarily let out a scream.

Then this shameful affair, which could have been covered up, became known to more and more people, and eventually reached the Snow Night Emperor.

Xue Ye was immediately enraged and forcibly pulled himself out of his confinement.

When he actually arrived at the place and saw that scene, Emperor Xueye almost exploded.

However, it's absolutely impossible to say that Lin Hai didn't interfere. After all, because of Emperor Xue Ye's health, most of the palace's attention was focused on Emperor Xue Ye and Crown Prince Xue Qinghe.

……

"snort!"

"Avalanche, do you know your crime!" At this moment, Xueye appeared very calm and did not seem very angry. His cold voice rang out.

With a loud "bang!", Avalanche, who had been kneeling on both knees and looking at Emperor Xueye in fear, instantly turned into a full prostration, and the banging was quite loud.

Besides Emperor Xueye and Xue Beng, Prince Xue Qinghe and Prince Xue Xing are also here.

These are the only four left. Even though news of the avalanche has spread, the royal family's reputation still needs to be protected.

"Father, spare my life!" Xue Beng said in fear.

It was a foregone conclusion that he would be caught in bed by Emperor Xueye. When he opened his eyes in the morning and saw Emperor Xueye, he was first shocked, after all, he hadn't seen Emperor Xueye in his palace for a long time.

However, he gradually regained consciousness and soon realized that this was not his bedroom.

When he saw his father glaring at him, Avalanche looked around and then he knew what he had done the night before.

"You beast, how dare you do such a heinous thing!"

"Your old man isn't dead yet!"

Even though he hadn't said more than a few words, Emperor Xueye was still furious.

"Guards, take this beast away! I will personally behead him!"

How could Emperor Xueye not be furious! As the supreme emperor of the Heavenly Dou Empire, he had been majestic and domineering for centuries, yet in his old age, he was betrayed by his own son. His illustrious reputation was ruined by this useless son. Emperor Xueye's decision not to kill Xue Beng on the spot was already out of consideration for their bloodline.

Tap tap tap tap~

At the Emperor's command, the guards outside, who were at a distance, ran towards the palace.

Just as the guards entered the hall and were about to attack Xue Beng, Xue Qinghe stopped them. He then turned and knelt on one knee before Emperor Xue Ye, saying, "Father, although my brother has committed a grave crime, please spare his life for the sake of his bloodline!"

This is what Lin Hai taught Qian Renxue: after Xue Beng is captured, she must plead for mercy.

Lin Hai also explained the reason to Qian Renxue. Currently, the only male bloodlines left in Xueye are Xue Qinghe, disguised as Qian Renxue, and the Fourth Prince Xue Beng. These are the only two people left in the royal bloodline. And that's only one of them.

Secondly, Xueye is old. In the last ten years or so, his second and third sons have died. Even a fierce tiger will lick its cubs, let alone an old Xueye! So even if Xuebeng's actions were excessive, Xueye will eventually forgive him. Or rather, he will spare Xuebeng's life. However, it is unnecessary to predict what punishment Xuebeng will suffer before he is spared.

Thirdly, if Qian Renxue pleads for Xue Beng, it will reduce Emperor Xueye's suspicion of Qian Renxue and make him wonder if Xue Beng was orchestrated by Qian Renxue, who is actually Crown Prince Xue Qinghe.

Qian Renxue's actions could distance her from the relationship and reduce suspicion. In addition, her previous well-behaved behavior could greatly reduce Emperor Xueye's suspicion.

Emperor Xueye was just a prince back then. How could Zong not know the inside story of how he eventually became the emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire?

As expected, Qian Renxue's plea actually left Emperor Xueye somewhat bewildered.

"Could it be that the boss really wasn't behind this?" Emperor Xueye wondered to himself.

"."

A moment later, Emperor Xueye waved his hand and said, "Take him away!"

"Spare me, Father! Father... Father~" The sound of the avalanche gradually faded into the distance.

"Father..." Just as Qian Renxue was about to say something more, Emperor Xueye waved his hand to interrupt her.

"No need for further words! Hmph!" After saying this, Emperor Xueye stood up and left the place.

Prince Xuexing glanced at Qian Renxue with complicated emotions, then followed Emperor Xueye and left the place.

Prince Xuexing never expected that the person he had been wary of would plead for Xue Beng in the end.

……

"So what should we do next?"

"Wait!" Lin Hai replied calmly.

Lin Hai's eyes were filled with wisdom. He had already anticipated Emperor Xue Ye's actions.

If nothing unexpected happens, Avalanche will be exiled, though it's uncertain whether he'll be exiled to the north or the south.

After Xue Beng committed such a disgraceful act, it is unlikely that he can stay in Tian Dou City. However, Xue Ye will probably consider that Xue Beng is his offspring and will not actually kill him.

However, the Snow Night Emperor would never want to see another avalanche.

"However, I suspect that Emperor Xueye will most likely exile Xue Beng to the north."

"Is that so? Most of the southern territories are connected with the Star Luo Empire. The south can indeed threaten this offspring of Emperor Xueye."

"There's one more thing, this should also be considered a backup plan set up by Emperor Xueye!"

"In the north, there is also the Heaven Dou Empire's reserve army, the Northern Army led by Golong. If the Heaven Dou Empire ever encounters any threat, Avalanche will be the continuation of the Heaven Dou Empire's bloodline."

"However, when Avalanche leaves Heaven Dou City, that will be the moment for his atonement."

Lin Hai's prediction was correct. Emperor Xue Ye exiled Xue Beng. Of course, it was more like a different kind of enfeoffment than an exile. Xue Beng completely lost his right to compete for the throne while Xue Ye was alive.

After Xue Beng was driven away by Xue Ye Dadi, Lin Hai did not choose to take action immediately. His advice to Qian Renxue was to go to Xue Ye Dadi again to persuade him, and at the same time, not to do anything else, but to do her own job well.

Qian Renxue did indeed do just that, and as a result, Emperor Xueye became even more satisfied with Crown Prince Qian Renxue.

Despite his resolute attitude towards the avalanche, after calming down, he would also worry about the avalanche, one of his only two offspring.

Even tigers don't eat their cubs; no matter how cruel the royal family may be, this is still the case.

About two weeks after the avalanche and his guard left, Lin Hai disappeared for a period of time.

Twenty days later, devastating news arrived. As the Fourth Prince, Xue Beng, marched north, his first long journey, especially into the icy wilderness, proved too much for the pampered Xue Beng. He kept stopping and starting, slowing his progress. This slowing, coupled with his actions, led to an attack by spirit beasts. They had the ability to break through, but due to Xue Beng's own shortcomings, they failed. Xue Beng's shouting and misguided commands resulted in the deaths of many guards, ultimately wiping out almost the entire group except for five or six scouts who had gone ahead to explore. From among them, a few still breathing individuals were found.

They then came back to report!
