Douluo Dalu: The Eyes That Defy Fate

Chapter 211 The Beginning
The Snow Empress was so shocked by Lin Po's new pupil technique that her face paled, and she asked Lin Po in disbelief:
"'Words become law'?! Is that what I understand it to be?!"

"If there is no other explanation, then that's it."

After Lin Po finished speaking, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye suddenly became quiet.

There was no way around it; the meaning behind those four words was simply too heavy, so heavy that even the Snow Emperor couldn't easily regard them as normal.

Needless to say, even with Lin Po's current strength, using this eye technique would be enough for him to kill an ordinary Title Douluo in just a few words.

He could certainly have done this before, but in a head-on battle, he would at least have to shatter the ninth soul skill of a Title Douluo before he could kill him.

In contrast, now Lin Po only needs to use his words.

Seeing Xue Di's dazed expression, Lin Po immediately realized that she had overestimated the power and burst out laughing.

"Don't think too far about this ability. At least for now, it's not as powerful as you imagine."

The sudden sound brought Xue Di back to her senses, causing her to turn her head to look at Lin Po, wanting to hear his explanation.

Lin Po naturally wouldn't keep anything from her and explained it softly.

"The emperor's privileges are based on the emperor, and the upper limit of his abilities is also determined by him."

To what extent I can achieve through privilege depends entirely on the 'emperor's' resources and influence.

"For example, now that I have fully grasped your understanding of the power of ice and snow, I can use my privileges to directly command all ice and snow power that does not exceed the limits of this understanding."

"Similarly, if it is an ability that I have never encountered before, such as time, I cannot use privileges to drive these powers. I must analyze and integrate the relevant abilities before I can give them orders."

"Simply put, only things under my control can be driven by me, just like the Star Luo Emperor can't interfere with the affairs of the Heavenly Soul Empire."

Xue Di was no fool; how could he not understand such a simple and clear explanation?

However, looking at the smug young man in front of her, Xue Di felt the urge to punch him for the first time.

That's so annoying! He was clearly very satisfied with the ability, but he deliberately pretended to be regretful when explaining it to her.

Even with its great limitations, it is still a power that everyone covets, including the gods of the divine realm.

She didn't believe that those gods could achieve what Lin Po had done.

Having barely suppressed the urge to hit someone, Xue Di asked the question again.

"So what are you planning to do next? Continue analyzing Hyotei's spirit rings? Or are you going to leave the Spirit Realm and continue your plans in the human world?"

Lin Po, who had already made up his mind about this issue, did not hesitate at all and stated his decision.

"I'm not in a rush to get Ice Emperor's spirit rings. I plan to analyze them all together after I've acquired a few more."

There are still many unresolved issues on the Douluo Continent side that must be dealt with as soon as possible. I won't be able to rest easy until they are settled.

Lin Po's answer did not surprise Xue Di. She asked about this simply because she wanted to understand her lover's thoughts better.

"In that case, I guess I'm in the Spirit Realm."

"Hmm? You're not leaving with me? Although you're no longer a being of Douluo Continent, you won't be rejected as long as I'm here."

Upon hearing this, Xue Di shook her head, got up to straighten Lin Po's clothes, and softly told him about her plans.

"I won't go. Bing'er is in a deep sleep and can't be left unattended. Even if I have the authority, I'm not at ease."

The Starry Sky Forest also needs someone in the Spirit Realm to coordinate with it to prevent major chaos.

I also need to improve my own skills as soon as possible so that I can better help you in the future.

Looking at the woman before him, her eyes filled with affection, Lin Po found it hard to believe that she was the same aloof Snow Empress who once sat aloof amidst the frost.

"That's fine. With you helping to manage the spirit world, I feel at ease."

After saying this, Lin Po upgraded Xue Di's authority to a higher level, making it easier for her to move around in the Spirit Realm. After spending some more time with Xue Di, Lin Po knew the timing was inappropriate and didn't linger any longer. He left the Spirit Realm as his beloved watched her see her husband off.

. . .

Lin Po, who had disappeared for three months, reappeared in Mingdu in a very brazen manner, which really shocked the forces that were preparing to sit back and watch the situation change.

After all, they expected Lin Po to be able to protect himself before returning to Mingdu, so how come he showed up after only three months?

The leaders of many forces are not fools, and they also believe that Lin Po, who was able to win over Kong Deming and Jing Hongchen, is no fool either.

After a brief analysis, a simple yet unbelievable answer was presented to them.

Lin Po's decision to return means he now has the ability to protect himself within Mingdu!

Could it be that he has already become a level nine Soul Master?!
As a genius recognized by all forces, they naturally didn't consider that Lin Po would do something as foolish as wasting his talent by choosing to take drugs to improve his cultivation.

Therefore, the vast majority of forces became greedy for the secret of Lin Po's sudden increase in strength almost at the same time, and once it appeared, they could no longer suppress it.

Sure enough, Lin Po had only been on the main street of Mingdu for a short time when he immediately sensed that no fewer than fifty people were watching him.

"You people are really fearless, the royal family, nobles, Mingdu forces, and the military."
But have I done something strange lately?

While Lin Po sneered, he couldn't help but wonder what could possibly make these forces disregard the threats posed by Kong Deming and Jing Hongchen and send people to monitor him.

This goes beyond just courting death; there must be some special reason behind it.

Left with no other choice, Lin Po had to go to the Kong residence as quickly as possible to ask Kong Deming if something unusual had happened recently that had caused them to go to such lengths.

At the same time, Lin Po also wanted to take this opportunity to see the cultivation results of Zhang Lexuan and the others during his absence.

Before long, Lin Po and Kong Deming stood side by side on the balcony of a six-story building, looking down at the group of people training enthusiastically below.

However, Lin Po's face showed no relief, only helplessness towards his teacher.

"What you mean is that the teacher's unexpectedly bad idea has worked surprisingly well, to the point that Xu Tianran's position as crown prince is now unstable."

And other major powers also want to profit from this royal turmoil? Is that why they disregarded your warning and tried to attack me, trying to seize the 'secret' to rapidly increase my cultivation?

Kong Deming nodded expressionlessly, agreeing with Lin Po's summary.

The unexpected development caught Lin Po off guard, but he couldn't blame his teacher.

To be honest, he was really angry at that time, and he begged Zhongli Wu to help him vent his anger.

But Lin Po never expected that Zhongli Wu would be so good at playing games.

A dignified Limit Douluo would actually go to Star Luo City to find aphrodisiacs and follow Xu Tianran around the clock, drugging him.

Zhongliwu even dragged Kong Deming, an upright old man who had lived an honest life, into the mess, making him an accomplice.

Thinking of this, Lin Po finally couldn't help but burst out laughing, which immediately angered Kong Deming, who glared at him as if he was about to fight Lin Po to the death.

Seeing this, Lin Po quickly and awkwardly changed the subject, fearing that the old man might suddenly make a move.

"Ahem, let's not talk about that now. Elder Kong, how are your preparations going?"

After giving Lin Po a disapproving look, Kong Deming began to explain the issue.

"Nearly two-thirds of the ninth-level Soul Masters of the Sun Moon Empire, the two Soul Master legions of Evil Monarch and Terror Claw, and a few other forces of varying sizes within the Sun Moon Empire—this is all the power I can bring together."

But these aren't for you, they're for Le Xuan! Only she can command them!

Lin Po was very satisfied with Kong Deming's gains, and he subconsciously ignored the final warning.

"That's enough. If all goes well, we might not even need to use these resources!"
