As soon as these words were spoken.
The expression on Quinn Ye's face froze.
Damn it.
Even if you are the Crown Prince.
There's no need to look down on people this much, right?
I, Quinn Ye, am at least a handsome and talented guy. Even if I'm just a commoner, there's no need to mock me to my face, is there?
Quinn was a bit displeased.
But given that the other party was the Crown Prince, he didn't dare say much.
It couldn't be helped.
Who asked him to be just an ordinary, unremarkable mortal?
Tiffany Chu's expression, however, changed drastically.
She first glanced at Quinn.
Seeing no sign of anger on his face, she breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Thank goodness Senior Quinn is broad-minded and hasn't lowered himself to his level.
But Tiffany still couldn't help but glare angrily at William Yang. "Crown Prince, please watch your words. Young Master Quinn is my friend!"
William Yang also looked a bit displeased.
"Princess, have you been deceived by someone?"
Tiffany was furious.
"William Yang!"
Seeing that the two were about to start arguing, Quinn quickly spoke up.
"Don't get so worked up. I'll be leaving now, you guys take your time chatting."
With that, Quinn hurriedly tried to leave.
It's just too dangerous.
The outside world is too dangerous.
I'd better hurry back to the mountain.
"Halt! Did this Crown Prince give you permission to leave?"
William Yang shouted angrily.
Immediately, several soldiers rushed over and blocked Quinn's path.
Quinn was somewhat speechless.
Who did I offend?
I just stepped out of the house and I run into this kind of thing.
William strode over.
Tiffany turned pale with fright upon seeing this.
"William Yang, what are you trying to do?"
William ignored Tiffany and instead stared fixedly at Quinn.
"Just who are you? What are your intentions in getting close to the Princess? If you don't confess the truth, watch your head!"
Quinn instantly felt a chill down his spine.
"I really don't have any intentions."
William raised a hand.
The soldiers immediately pinned Quinn down.
Seeing this posture, Tiffany's heart skipped a beat.
It's over, it's over!
Being treated like this, Senior Quinn will definitely fly into a rage.
When a transcendent being gets angry, a million corpses will fall!
Everything is doomed.
I'm going to be doomed along with it.
But to Tiffany's surprise, after being pinned down, Quinn only looked aggrieved and helpless, showing no sign of getting angry at all.
That pitiful look truly resembled an ordinary person without the strength to truss a chicken.
Where was there even a hint of a transcendent expert?
Tiffany froze for a moment, and then her admiration for Quinn grew even deeper.
Even after being treated like this, Senior Quinn still hasn't revealed his true strength, and is still dealing with it as a mortal!
It seems Senior Quinn has completely integrated into the mortal realm and has long reached that ultra-high state of being indifferent to the clouds and wind, letting his emotions flow naturally.
If Quinn knew what Tiffany was thinking, he would definitely want to cry but have no tears.
How the hell am I letting my emotions flow naturally and being indifferent?
I'm simply being pinned down and can't get up!
At this moment, The Rabbit in Quinn's arms felt a bit conflicted.
Should I make a move?
Or should I just watch?
The Rabbit was very torn.
If I act, I'm afraid of ruining the Master's state of mind while experiencing the mortal world.
But if I don't act, am I just going to watch this guy bully the Master?
Both options seem wrong.
And so.
The Rabbit simply rolled its eyes back and kicked its legs out stiff.
I'll just play dead for now.
The Master won't be in any real danger anyway.
"William Yang, release him immediately!"
Tiffany shouted sternly.
"Princess, I am taking this man away for interrogation. After I find out his background, I will hand him over for you to deal with."
William waved his hand.
"Take him away!"
Quinn was directly tied up and then tossed onto the back of a horse.
Tiffany grew anxious.
How can this be allowed?
At the same time, she thought, Senior Quinn hasn't shown any signs of resisting up until this moment.
Perhaps he is giving me a chance to perform.
If I don't act now, when will I?
Tiffany immediately made a move, preparing to rescue Quinn.
But William also had experts by his side.
A pale-faced middle-aged man dressed in red merely raised a hand and easily repelled Tiffany.
Tiffany's body staggered back continuously, looking at the red-robed man in shock.
"Golden Core Realm!"
This red-robed man was shockingly a Golden Core Realm expert.
Tiffany was only at the Source Gathering Stage.
How could she possibly be his match?
Tiffany had no options left.
She could only watch helplessly as Quinn was taken away.
Placed on the back of the horse, Quinn endured a bumpy ride the whole way, feeling absolutely miserable.
He almost threw up directly.
Not long after, Quinn was brought to William's residence.
Lintian City, located a hundred miles away from Cloud-Drifting Mountain.
The largest mansion within the city served as William's temporary residence.
Quinn was thrown into the courtyard.
William sat in front of him, his expression arrogant, his gaze cold.
"Boy, do you know why this Crown Prince brought you here?"
William took a sip of tea and spoke unhurriedly.
Quinn shook his head.
William let out a cold snort.
"Let me tell you, Tiffany Chu is the woman this Crown Prince has set his sights on. Not only is she the Princess of the Heavenly Martial Empire, but she is also the future Crown Princess and future Empress of my Profound Origin Empire!"
"A lowly commoner like you has no right to appear by her side!"
Quinn cried out in bitterness inwardly.
He truly felt wronged.
He had absolutely no ulterior thoughts about Tiffany; they were purely just friends.
"Uh, Crown Prince, actually, there is really nothing going on between me and Tiffany," Quinn explained.
William narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Are you telling me you actually wanted something to happen?"
"No, no, no, that's not what I meant."
Quinn hastily waved his hands.
William gave a soft humph.
"Originally, I wanted to just kill you directly, but now I've changed my mind."
"I'm going to take you back to the Profound Origin Empire and make you a eunuch in the palace."
Ah???
Quinn was completely dumbfounded.
Turn him into a eunuch?
How could that be acceptable?
Quinn felt a sudden chill in his crotch.
He hadn't even enjoyed life yet.
He hadn't even touched a woman since coming to this world, so why was he about to become a eunuch?
This was way too unjust, wasn't it?
"Uh, can I not be a eunuch? How about being an imperial chef? I'm actually pretty good at cooking," Quinn asked tentatively.
"To be an imperial chef, you must also be castrated."
Quinn: "..."
It's over!
My, Quinn Ye's, lifelong reputation is ruined; I'm going to end up a eunuch.
Boohoo!
Quinn wanted to cry but had no tears.
...
With Quinn taken away, Tiffany was extremely anxious.
She knew she couldn't rescue Quinn on her own, so she had to quickly find backup.
She first found Bella Bai.
Bella happened to be staying briefly at the Prince of the West's estate.
Upon learning of the situation, Bella was also greatly shocked.
"A massive disaster is about to happen!"
This was Bella's first reaction.
Quinn being captured without any resistance at all—this was already an incredibly dangerous signal.
Once William Yang did something out of line and thoroughly enraged Quinn...
No one could predict what would happen.
The most likely scenario was that in a fit of rage, Quinn would slaughter the entire Profound Origin Empire until it was empty.
Even the Heavenly Martial Empire might be implicated.
"Hurry and inform His Majesty Emperor Dominic! Just tell him Senior Quinn has been captured!"
"I need to quickly tell my Master too!"
