Douluo Dalu: Immortal Dragon Clan

No matter how much the Sun and Moon Empire tries to block things, some things will still leak out in different ways.

Inside the Star Luo Empire's palace, Xu Jiawei, whose body was extremely fragile, was looking at the news sent back by the Sun Moon Empire's informants.

"A crisis has occurred in the Sun Moon Empire!"

These eight words alone were enough to make Xu Jiawei's heart clench. Since his injury, his health had been declining, and seeing this news now made his already fragile heart tighten even more.

Why is the Star Luo Empire stronger than the other two countries? It's simply because they place greater emphasis on soul tools than the other two countries.

This is why the Star Luo Empire constantly sends spies to infiltrate the Sun Moon Empire, exchanging various resources and benefits for the latter's soul tool technology and finished products.

Even though they couldn't obtain the latest soul tools, the Star Luo Empire never let go of the old soul tools that the Sun Moon Empire had discarded, collecting them all like treasures.

It can be said that the "trash" that the Sun Moon Empire had just discarded was regarded as a treasure by the Star Luo Empire.

"Cough cough cough..." Xu Jiawei suddenly coughed violently.

Wang Xian'er appeared beside him instantly, helping him suppress his injuries while advising, "Your Majesty, you need to rest well. Your body really can't take any more strain."

"I'm fine, Wang Xian'er, please." Xu Jiawei forced himself to sit up and ordered outside, "Go and call Jiu Jiu here. Oh, and Miss Wen Yu too. Tell them I have urgent business with them!"

The upheavals in the Sun Moon Empire made him, the emperor of the Star Luo Empire, feel vaguely uneasy.

Unlike the people from the other two countries or Shrek Academy, he didn't disdain soul tools—he knew all too well how terrifying they were.

The development speed of soul tools is far beyond what the hidden weapons of ten thousand years ago could achieve.

The hidden weapons of the Tang Clan ten thousand years ago were quite formidable, right? Yet, ten thousand years later, they were completely replaced by soul tools.

Soul tools actually existed ten thousand years ago, but at that time, there were only a handful of storage soul tools in the Douluo Continent.

It wasn't until a thousand years ago, when the Sun Moon Continent and the Douluo Continent collided and merged, that the Soul Guidance Device truly revealed its powerful strength.

Xu Jiawei had speculated more than once that the scattered soul tools that appeared ten thousand years ago might have been transmitted from the Sun Moon Continent.

That's why he values ​​soul tools so much—even if they're just "junk" discarded by the Sun Moon Empire, he enjoys it nonetheless.

At least in this way, the Star Luo Empire will not lag too far behind in the field of soul tools.

"By the way, has Brother Dai Haoxian returned yet?"

Xu Jiawei summoned a guard responsible for monitoring the White Tiger Duke's mansion and asked him a question.

"Yes, Your Majesty. But..." The guard looked troubled, unsure of how to phrase it.

"What's wrong? Speak freely!" Xu Jiawei noticed the guard's unusual behavior and immediately asked.

After a moment's thought, the guard slowly said, "Your Majesty, it is true that the Duke of Baihu publicly beat up his second son, Dai Huabin, yesterday."

As for the reason... it's a complicated matter.

"What's the reason? Tell me!"

"Yes!"

The guard then began to recount what had happened at the White Tiger Duke's mansion the previous day.

Rewind to last night, when Dai Hao was returning to the Duke's mansion, he suddenly received an item containing a video of a soul tool.

At first, he thought it was an enemy attack, so he immediately ordered his guards to surround the object while he cautiously approached to investigate. But the moment his fingers touched the object, a video started playing instantly.

The content was a picture of Tang San and his second son, Dai Huabin.

The video also fabricated a so-called narration: saying that ten thousand years ago, Tang San and Dai Mubai had a very good relationship. When Dai Mubai met Tang San, a like-minded teammate and brother, he felt that they were a match made in heaven...

Dai Mubai finally gave up.

The narration absurdly claims that this gene has been preserved for tens of thousands of years, and it was fully awakened in Dai Huabin's generation.

When Dai Hao saw those disgusting images, he almost fainted.

The soldiers around him, as well as the nobles who came to welcome his triumphant return, had only one thought when they saw this scene: This unofficial history is too outrageous, so outrageous that it is just "history"!

Only then did Dai Hao finally understand what Bai Yu and Hei Yu had said earlier—damn it!

His second son wasn't going to Shrek Academy at all; he actually...
He tried to destroy the soul-guided device that was playing the video to stop the image from spreading further, but no matter how he tried, it was to no avail.

Finally, he simply activated his Martial Soul True Form and rushed straight back to the Duke's mansion.

Then, he took out a "Seven Wolves" cigarette and dragged Dai Huabin, who had just fallen asleep, out of bed and started beating him.

That beating made Dai Huabin spin like a top.

That night, the spinning top never stopped, nor did the screams.

Duchess Baihu tried to stop them, but Dai Hao grabbed her and whipped her along with him—leading to a "mother and son spinning top competition."

After hearing the guard's account, Xu Jiawei burst into laughter: "Hahaha! I thought it was just a rumor, but it turns out it's true!"

"With Hao as my son, I feel much more at ease!"

Xu Jiawei has always been most afraid that the descendants of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion will become stronger and stronger, which will threaten the royal status of his Xu family sooner or later.

Now that this has happened, Dai Huabin's reputation has spread so far that it will be difficult for him to rise to prominence again—tsk tsk, this is truly a stroke of luck for him.

“Wang Xian’er, do you think Dai Huabin has offended someone? Otherwise, why would he be being tormented like this?” Xu Jiawei, being the emperor, quickly sensed that something was amiss.

This could not possibly be a coincidence; it must have been a carefully orchestrated scheme.

"He was arrogant and domineering, and this is what he got. Unlike my apprentice Wen Yu, who is both intelligent and gentle, and never causes trouble."

Wang Xian'er gave her answer, and while speaking, she didn't forget to praise her apprentice, Miss Wen Yu.

These words left Xu Jiawei speechless, unsure how to respond. He had asked about Dai Huabin, so how did it suddenly escalate to Wen Yu?

Oh, right, he suddenly remembered that Dai Huabin had once tried to pursue Wen Yu, Wang Xian'er's apprentice.

This made Xu Jiawei wonder: Could it be that Wang Xian'er, the temple's protector, secretly set a trap for Dai Huabin?
But when I thought about it again, I thought it was impossible.

Wang Xian'er is a well-known gentle retainer in the Star Luo Empire. Her character is as kind as her martial spirit, and she would never do such a wicked thing.

As for Wen Yu, that's even more impossible.

It is said that like master, like disciple. Wen Yu is usually an extremely kind girl, so why would she plot against Dai Huabin?
