I've already been given the title of Douluo, and you want me to be reasonable?

Chapter 169 The Asura God King Arrives Again
Lin Yuan frowned slightly, a hint of disgust flashing across his face. He never expected that the Star Luo Empire would resort to such despicable means.

"Get up. I have no interest in your affairs and have no intention of pursuing them. Go back."

Lin Yuan lifted the teacup on the table and shook it slightly, his cold and stern face showing almost no emotion.

Zhu Zhuyun slowly stood up, her eyes filled with grievance and helplessness, and said, "Your Majesty Lin Yuan, I know this is absurd, but I really have no other choice. His Majesty said that if you do not agree, the entire Star Luo Empire will be in crisis, and Davis... he also acquiesced to this."

At this point, Zhu Zhuyun's eyes reddened slightly, and her voice choked with emotion, as if she were in great pain, after all, Davis was her fiancé.

If even he no longer speaks up for himself, then who in this world will speak up for him?
Lin Yuan remained silent for a moment, then sneered inwardly, thinking that for the sake of power and profit, they were actually willing to give away their own Crown Princess as a bargaining chip.

"Go back and tell the emperor of the Star Luo Empire that as long as they don't cause trouble, I will not take action against the Star Luo Empire. But if the Star Luo Empire keeps this up, I don't mind destroying the entire empire."

Zhu Zhuyun bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Your Majesty Lin Yuan, His Majesty also said that as long as you agree, he will offer half of the Star Luo Empire's national treasury and cede ten border cities."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan couldn't help but sneer, "Does he think these things can sway me? Wealth and cities are nothing but external things to me, as are soul rings and soul bones."

"Go back, and don't come back."

Zhu Zhuyun lowered her head and sighed inwardly, knowing that this mission was likely to fail.

"Then... Your Majesty Lin Yuan, how should I reply to His Majesty?"

Lin Yuan slowly stood up, looked at the curvaceous Zhu Zhuyun, and said, "Go back and tell your emperor that in three days, the Imperial Soul Master will personally go to the Star Luo Empire to talk to him face to face."

"As for other matters, let the Star Luo Empire and the Heaven Dou Empire discuss them. I will no longer concern myself with other matters."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuyun nodded quickly, for preserving her chastity was the most important thing.

"Yes, I will certainly convey this to Your Majesty truthfully."

"Wait a minute." Lin Yuan called out to her, then swirled the teacup in his hand. "You and Zhu Qing are sisters. She suffered a lot during her years at Shrek Academy. As her older sister, you were the one who hunted her down back then, weren't you?"

Zhu Zhuyun stopped, her expression complicated. She took a deep breath and said, "I... I have no choice. That's how it is in the Star Luo Empire's royal family. In order to become stronger, the only way is to kill your own brothers and sisters to... survive."

The Star Luo Empire has always been like this; in order to improve their own strength, it is understandable that they would even kill their own siblings.

If Dai Mubai were strong enough, the ones being hunted down now would probably be Zhu Zhuyun and Davis.

Lin Yuan didn't say anything more. He waved his hand and said, "Go, go back. I have no interest in you. As for the Star Luo Empire, let the experts of the Heaven Dou Empire discuss it."

Zhu Zhuyun didn't say anything more after hearing this, and turned to leave. She was somewhat puzzled; could it be that her looks and figure weren't enough to seduce Lord Lin Yuan? Or had Lin Yuan become indifferent to women?

Zhu Zhuyun glanced at Lin Yuan behind her out of the corner of her eye, and only after confirming that the other party was not paying attention to her did she turn around and leave.

Lin Yuan remained calm and composed, and said with a disdainful smile, "Zhu Zhuyun is truly a scheming woman. To think she could make me fall into that kind of state is utterly laughable."

Just as Lin Yuan was about to speak, a powerful energy locked onto the area. If he wasn't mistaken, it should be the Asura God King from the City of Slaughter.

Lin Yuan dusted off his shoulders, raised his head, looked at the void before him, and bowed slightly, saying, "Junior Lin Yuan greets Senior Asura God."

As Lin Yuan's voice fell, the void in front of him was torn apart, and at the same time, the God King Asura God, who was a member of the God Realm Committee, stepped out.

The Asura God looked at Lin Yuan before him and said coldly, "Boy, you have been away from the City of Slaughter for many years. Haven't you decided when to inherit my divine power yet?"

Lin Yuan nodded and smiled, gesturing for him to proceed, saying, "Senior, please don't be offended. There have been many things going on at the academy recently, and I haven't been able to leave. Therefore, I haven't been able to inherit Senior Asura God's divine power."

The Asura God frowned, a strange look flashing in his eyes. "Even without going to the City of Slaughter, I can still let you directly inherit the Asura God's divine status. It just depends on whether you have the time."

At this moment, the God of Asura was also eager to make Lin Yuan his successor. After all, his martial soul was the Asura Demon Sword, and he was a junior whom he had watched grow up. If he became the successor of other god-level powerhouses, it would really be a loss.

Lin Yuan took a sip of tea and said softly, "Don't worry, Senior Shura God. Since I promised you, I will not go back on my word. Besides, there is still more than a month before the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition. I really don't have time to accept your divine inheritance."

Hearing this, the Asura God frowned slightly, clearly annoyed by the matter. After all, Lin Yuan's talent was undeniable, and if other cultivators were to take notice of him, the consequences would be unimaginable.

That's why the Asura God was rather impatient, hoping that Lin Yuan would accept his divine inheritance as soon as possible.

The Asura God frowned, a faint aura of malevolence surging around him. He said in a deep voice, "A little over a month won't delay your acceptance of the inheritance. This inheritance should be done sooner rather than later. Once you miss the best opportunity, it will be detrimental to your cultivation path in every way."

Lin Yuan swirled the teacup in his hand and replied with a smile, "Senior Shura God, I understand your good intentions. However, the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition is just around the corner. The students I've trained are also preparing to participate, and as their teacher, I cannot leave at this crucial moment."

The Asura God's gaze was sharp as he stared intently at Lin Yuan, seemingly trying to discern Lin Yuan's true thoughts from his eyes.

After a moment, the Asura God King slowly stood up, put one hand behind his back, and said calmly, "Fine, since you have made up your mind, I will wait for you for another month or so. But you must remember not to disappoint me, the matter of the inheritance cannot be lost."
