Civilian Soul Masters in Douluo World

Chapter 457 Royal Lineage
In the eyes of the Crimson King, the importance of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm was beyond question, and no mistakes could be made.

Di Tian was the first to return to the Star Dou Great Forest, and the Crimson King and other ferocious beasts immediately organized the beast tide to retreat from Wuhun City.

As the army of soul beasts slowly receded, the soul masters all breathed a sigh of relief.

Faced with the beast tide, all sides suffered heavy losses. The Black Tiger Sect couldn't help but twitch as they looked at the fact that their sect disciples were less than half of what they had come with.

Fortunately, the most casualties were among low- to mid-level Soul Masters. Although the casualties were significant, they were still within acceptable limits.

The soul beasts that had originally flooded into Wuhun City were slowly retreating. A breach had been made in the city wall, and the casualties caused by the influx of soul beasts into Wuhun City were staggering.

On the six walls of Wuhun City, the six strongest martial spirits in the current soul master world are carved, each representing a powerful force.

However, now that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Blue Lightning Tyrant School have been wiped out by the Spirit Hall's Soul Extinction Plan, the six walls of Spirit City should have been replaced long ago.

“Bibi Dong, you…” Demon-Slaying Douluo had multiple burns on his body, and a hint of anger appeared in his eyes.

The Demon-Slaying Douluo learned that Bibi Dong had entered the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt 100,000-year-old soul beasts and believed that it was Bibi Dong's actions that had attracted the beast tide.

He wanted to question Bibi Dong, but was immediately stopped by Qian Daoliu.

"Shut up. As the Empress of the Spirit Empire, not just anyone can disrespect her." Qian Daoliu's voice carried a hint of intrigue.

Bibi Dong merely sneered inwardly; the Hall of Offerings was becoming increasingly disrespectful to her.

"Everyone follow me."

Qian Daoliu glanced at Bibi Dong, then left the battlefield with several retainers, leaving the mess to Bibi Dong to clean up.

Bibi Dong sensed something and looked in the direction of the Star Luo Empire. To think that they could take back their territory so easily was wishful thinking.

With the help of the three major sects, the Star Luo Empire's army successively recaptured cities. Fortunately, these cities originally belonged to the Star Luo Empire and had only been occupied by the Martial Soul Empire for a short time, so the civilians in the cities were all loyal to the Star Luo Empire.

Regaining control of the city proceeded smoothly without much trouble.

"Zors City, this was originally a great city that belonged to your Star Luo Empire." The one who led the Haotian Sect disciples to help the Star Luo royal family was the Sixth Elder. He knew that during the prosperous period of Zors City, the financial reports provided to the Star Luo royal family every year were excellent.

Yu Xinghe gazed at Zoers City from afar. One of the tasks assigned to him by the Star Luo Emperor was to recapture Zoers City as much as possible, as this prosperous metropolis would greatly boost the Star Luo Empire's economy.

The Star Luo Empire is currently lacking in everything, especially in terms of the economy. Money is needed everywhere and cannot be separated from it.

"Elders, how should we attack Zors City?" Yu Xinghe couldn't help but ask.

"Oh? Doesn't your army need rest?" Viper Sin chuckled.

Previously, the Star Luo Empire's army was still complaining about the rapid pace of their advance, as most of the soldiers were ordinary people who could not compare to these Soul Masters.

"Haha, Elder Viper is joking. I have severely punished those soldiers and can organize an army at any time to launch an effective attack."

The elders of the three sects, including Viper Xin, did not want to waste any more words on this matter. If the Star Luo Empire could recover 20% to 30% of its strength, it would be able to better restrain the Martial Soul Empire's army.

The Spirit Empire's goal is to unify the entire continent, and the Star Luo Empire and the Heaven Dou Empire are the Spirit Empire's primary targets that must be eliminated.

After eliminating the two great empires, the Spirit Empire's next targets were undoubtedly the Clear Sky Sect and the Thunder God Sect. These two transcendent spirit master forces threatened the Spirit Empire's rule and were thorns in its side; naturally, it would find a way to eradicate them. Having foreseen the Spirit Empire's intentions, it was clear that the Empire couldn't be allowed to develop so smoothly. Helping the Star Luo Empire was also helping itself.

The Thunder God Sect needs time, and so does the Clear Sky Sect. If the Star Luo Empire can recover some of its strength, it will delay the Martial Soul Empire's unification of the continent for as long as possible.

After a brief discussion, the three elders concluded that a direct frontal attack was the simplest and most effective method.

Like other cities, Zors is likely lacking military defenses, making it easy to breach the city walls and capture quickly.

When the disciples of the three major sects and the army of the Star Luo Empire appeared at the foot of Zors City, the soldiers on the city wall changed their expressions slightly, but did not panic or lose their composure.

This was very different from what he had encountered before, and Viper Xin suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Zors City, you were originally a city of the Star Luo Empire, but you were invaded by the Spirit Empire, which caused you a lot of humiliation. Now we have regrouped our army, repelled the Spirit Empire's army, and are bringing you back to the Star Luo Empire." Yu Xinghe shouted loudly towards Zors City, holding a megaphone.

"The Star Luo Empire? You say you're the Star Luo Empire's army? Hahaha, how can you prove you're the Star Luo Empire's army?"

A powerful voice came from within the city of Zors. Yu Xinghe was taken aback for a moment. This was the first time he had been asked how to prove that it was the Star Luo Empire's army.

Could someone possibly dare to impersonate the Star Luo Empire?

That's a ridiculous question.

Yu Xinghe sneered inwardly.

"Why prove anything? My Star Luo Empire has been passed down to this day and is one of the three great empires on the continent. Who would dare to impersonate me?"

"Passed down to the present day? Or a usurpation? The legitimate lineage of the Star Luo royal family is the White Tiger Martial Soul. Who are the Star Luo royal family members now? Soul Masters of the Star Crown Sect? Even the royal family is not legitimate, so how dare you call yourselves the Star Luo Empire?"

This is the current problem of the Star Luo Empire. Before the new emperor has made any achievements, it is difficult for the royal family's legitimate position to be recognized.

"The Dai family colluded with corrupt soul masters and harmed the people of the empire. The Star Crown Sect was acting in accordance with the will of Heaven to eliminate evil. It also became the Star Luo Imperial Family because the Star Luo Empire was leaderless. Their goal was to protect the Star Luo Empire's rule. How could it be considered a plot to usurp the throne?"

"But why do you keep questioning the legitimacy of my Star Luo Empire?"

At that moment, a figure stood atop the city walls of Zols, wearing a black tiger mask.

After attracting everyone's attention, he slowly removed the mask from his face.

It was none other than Dai Mubai, the third prince of the Star Luo Empire.

"Hahaha, you all recognized me, didn't you? I am the true heir of the Star Luo royal family, with pure royal blood flowing through my veins. Only I can represent the real Star Luo royal family."

Behind Dai Mubai was a woman, Zhu Zhuyun, who had saved him.

Dai Mubai's appearance attracted the attention of the imperial army. Most of the officers recognized Dai Mubai's identity as the Third Prince. How could they be wrong?

"Now I ask you, do you believe me, the third prince of the Star Luo Empire, or do you believe the Star Crown Sect?"
