Chapter 653: Do You Intend to Kill Everyone?

Chapter 653: Do You Intend to Kill Everyone?

It must be said that although Tuoba Yi is not a good person, he has a natural talent for inciting the crowd.

After his incitement, the surrounding citizens were thoroughly incited, and now they looked at the general's mansion as if it were the murderer of their fathers.

"I've always said that Tuoba Xiao is a naturally cold-blooded monster. Before, you blindly revered him, thinking that his strength allowed him to do whatever he wanted. Now, he even kills his own blood relatives. Who will still speak for this monster?" Manager Zhang exclaimed with righteous indignation.

Although he had never dared to say such things to outsiders before, he had admonished his son against revering Tuoba Xiao. However, his words had not earned his son's respect at the time. Now, he felt a strong sense of satisfaction.

The others also cooperated with him, each one fervently discussing.

"Such a monster must be handed over to the Heavenly Punishment Bureau!"

"Yes, we common folk cannot defeat him, but today we'll wait here for the officials to come and provide everyone with an explanation!"

As the uproar intensified and the expressions on their faces became more furious, Tuoba Yi narrowed his eyes and finally looked at the guards of the general's mansion: "What, even at this point, are you still going to pledge loyalty to that monster who even killed his own mother?"

The guards looked at each other, at a loss. Their duty was to guard the general's mansion, and they had never imagined encountering such a situation one day. Now, they were at a loss for what to do.

After all, they were the guards of the general's mansion, usually trained almost like soldiers, adhering to the principle that military orders are as firm as mountains. Now, without orders from their superiors, they naturally felt like headless chickens, not knowing what to do.

Even so, hearing that the master they served was a cold-blooded monster who even killed his own mother, their resolve began to waver.

Seeing their wavering thoughts, Tuoba Yi's eyes brimmed with satisfaction.

Among the Wolf Hunting Tribe, Tuoba Xiao had the protection of those stubborn elders, and only half of the tribe members supported them. But in the Holy Capital, the population here was a thousandfold that of the tribe. Once the public's fury was ignited, who could still protect Tuoba Xiao?

Even if the emperor came, he couldn't withstand the overwhelming public outcry!

Tuoba Xiao must die!

Just as Tuoba Yi finished this thought, he noticed the crowd before him suddenly fall silent, looking at him with a hint of fear. He turned around, sensing something, and sure enough, saw the young man he hated to the core, the one responsible for his father's death.

Just one glance at Tuoba Xiao made Tuoba Yi's soul quiver, both from a habitual fear of this person's danger and from an extreme hatred and jealousy.

Why is it that Tuoba Xiao, such a ruthless, cold-blooded monster who kills his own kin, still receives the favor of heaven, endowed with divine strength? Since childhood, he had only been trampled underfoot by Tuoba Xiao, and even though he was raised by beasts, he still received such protection from the elders!

Tuoba Yi, of course, couldn't understand. Under the intertwining of these intense emotions, he only wanted to cast this once-favored son into eternal damnation, to bring him crashing down and expose the ugliness beneath his facade!

"Tuoba Xiao, you dare to show yourself!" he immediately roared.

Seeing that Tuoba Xiao had cut off his long hair and changed it to short hair, he immediately felt as if he had discovered a new continent, excitedly shouting to everyone, "Did you see? I've always said he's a ruthless, cold-blooded, unfilial monster. The body's hair and skin are gifts from parents, yet he dares to cut his hair so casually!"

"Tuoba Xiao, if your father and mother saw you like this, they would probably regret ever giving birth to you. No, your mother probably regretted giving birth to you the moment you pushed her off the cliff to her death!"

The originally indifferent and weary young man's blue-green eyes suddenly turned into a shade of dark green, the soft blue almost disappearing. His eyes were like those of a wolf about to kill its prey.

"Tuoba Yi."

Just by calling Tuoba Yi's name, Tuoba Yi couldn't help but shiver. But thinking of the many people watching him now, he instantly gained some courage: "What, why are you calling me, Tuoba Xiao? Isn't it true that you killed your own mother? You also killed your uncle, my father, and now you want to silence me, your cousin? Do you have even a shred of humanity? Are you even human?"

As Tuoba Yi's words fell, the surrounding people's discussions grew louder. Some martial artists who had long disliked Tuoba Xiao couldn't help but say, "That's right, Tuoba Xiao, you're usually bloodthirsty, killing countless innocent people in secret, even your own mother and uncle. Even beasts aren't as bad as you. Today, do you still want to kill, disregarding the court, the law, the emperor, and so many people?"

Gradually, the voices condemning Tuoba Xiao grew more and more.

Just like Hu Sang back then, many people superficially submitted to Tuoba Xiao only because they were forced by his martial prowess and status. In fact, they had long been dissatisfied with him, just waiting for him to fall from power so they could swarm over and trample him underfoot.

Tuoba Xiao's expression darkened severely.

He was injured, so his body was already uncomfortable, and his mood was irritable. Adding to that, the image of Su Youyue repeatedly walking away with Xie Yuan without looking back kept replaying in his mind over the past two days, even invading his dreams. His emotions were already on the verge of madness.

Tuoba Yi, however, remained oblivious. Instead, seeing more and more people rallying behind him, he finally let out years of pent-up frustration, unable to suppress a surge of excitement.

After so many years, he finally had this day where he could publicly humiliate Tuoba Xiao to the point of speechlessness!

And this was just the beginning. Soon, Tuoba Xiao would realize that his era had come to an end!

"What if I kill you?" Tuoba Xiao suddenly raised his eyes, his thick, raven-like lashes exuding a murderous intent. "Your father tried to kill me, and I can kill you too."

"You!" Tuoba Yi, seeing that even in this situation, Tuoba Xiao remained as arrogant and domineering as ever, instantly felt the humiliation of being trampled underfoot by Tuoba Xiao countless times before.

He quickly composed himself, knowing he couldn't outwit Tuoba Xiao in words, so he immediately rallied everyone: "Tuoba Xiao, you can kill me, but you can't kill thousands of people. Now that you've committed such treacherous, unfilial, and ruthless acts, can you silence the voices of the masses? Or do you plan to kill everyone here?"
