Wuhun Xuanming Turtle? Bullshit, this is the sacred beast Xuanwu

Nanfu could clearly feel that Xu Zong's soul power had increased at this moment.

That wasn't a minor improvement, but a crucial step, a reaction that only comes from breaking through constraints.

Xu Zong has broken through!

Although he has put these things aside over the years, they have always remained buried in his heart.

Now, seeing with his own eyes the sacred beast Xuanwu released by his son, he understands that his persistence was correct.

At this moment, the knot in his heart that had troubled him for many years was untied once again. For many years, he had been in a state of giving up, pretending to be an alcoholic and a good-for-nothing.

But now he doesn't need to be a good-for-nothing, nor does he need to pretend to be an alcoholic!
At this moment, the knot in his heart that had been tied up for many years was untied, and his soul power began to circulate once again.

"Double happiness."

Nanfu looked at Xu Zong with a somewhat animated expression.

"Yes, it's a double celebration."

Xu Zong also spoke up with a smile.

……

"Ling Xiao!"

Xu Lingxiao had just broken through to the Soul Saint realm and wanted to go out for a walk. He didn't need to tell anyone about it, since when he released his Martial Soul True Body, not only the entire Duke's mansion, but also the entire Heaven Dou City could probably see him, given his height of over a hundred meters.

Moreover, the soul power he unleashed should be felt by many high-level soul masters. It is estimated that within Heaven Dou City, anyone above the Soul Emperor level knows that he has broken through.

He had just arrived in the hall when, in the next instant, a fiery red figure suddenly rushed in front of him.

"Oh, is that Senior Xiaotao?"

Xu Lingxiao was also somewhat surprised when he saw the figure.

Ma Xiaotao is not from the Heavenly Soul Empire. Since returning to Shrek Academy some time ago, she has been cultivating in the inner courtyard of Shrek Academy.

However, to Xu Lingxiao's surprise, he actually sneaked out again.

"I've arrived at just the right time. I didn't expect to run into you just as I arrived. Congratulations!"

Ma Xiaotao raised an eyebrow and spoke with some surprise.

"Yes."

Xu Lingxiao smiled slightly.

He has been cultivating for a long time.

Today I finally broke through to the Soul Saint level.

"Ling Xiao."

Just as Xu Lingxiao was about to say a few more words to Ma Xiaotao, another person suddenly walked in from outside the hall.

This person's identity is quite extraordinary.

He was dressed in a golden outfit and wore a crown on his head.

Two teams of men were also following him to protect him.

Even Poison Undying was present.

"Your Majesty, Imperial Advisor."

Upon seeing the two, a hint of surprise flashed in Xu Lingxiao's eyes, but he quickly bowed slightly to them, saying, "Why didn't you have a servant announce your arrival?"

"What, we've known each other for so many years? You still complain about my sudden visit?"

Mu Xue wore a faint smile.

Mu Xue has changed quite a bit over the years; now, a hint of authority has crept into his expression.

He still retains the decisive and ruthless aura he had when he was a general.

He possessed the unique aura of an emperor on horseback.

Moreover, Mu Xue is no longer as naive as she once was; she is now an emperor with considerable judgment and decision-making ability in the court.

"You little rascal, you really are..."

Du Bu Si looked at Xu Ling Xiao with a rather surprised expression, "I know you're a genius, but I never imagined you could be this talented."

Poison Undying stroked his chin.

Keep in mind, only a little over a year has passed!
This kid, he became a Soul Saint just like that?
This kind of talent is extraordinary, no matter where you are. Keep in mind, he's only 19 years old!

Ma Xiaotao of Shrek Academy is a top genius of Shrek Academy, and can even be said to be a first-class genius in the entire continent. However, his current cultivation level is only 71, the Soul Saint!

Keep in mind that Ma Xiaotao is already 24 years old!

At 24, Xu Lingxiao was already a genius admired and awed by everyone on the continent, but his achievements were even higher than Ma Xiaotong's.

"Mild praise, ridiculous praise."

Xu Lingxiao smiled faintly, "By the way, I wonder why His Majesty and the Imperial Advisor have come here this time?"

"We have such a good relationship, we've known each other for so many years, why do you still call me Your Majesty? Can't you change how you address me?"

Mu Xue gave a somewhat helpless smile.

He looked at Xu Lingxiao and spoke slowly.

"There is a distinction between ruler and subject."

Xu Lingxiao remained silent for a moment, then managed to utter a sentence.

"you……"

A deep sense of disappointment flashed across Mu Xue's face.

Over the years, he had mentioned it to Xu Lingxiao countless times, but Xu Lingxiao never once changed his mind.

This left them feeling somewhat disappointed.

"You kid!"

Du Bu Si looked at Xu Ling Xiao with a hint of mockery in his eyes.

"By the way, why don't you tell him what you were thinking when you came here?"

Du Bu Si glanced at Mu Xue and reminded her to get to the point.

"it is good,"

Mu Xue nodded slightly. He was now a very mature emperor, and he could quickly suppress the emotions that caused him to be troubled by personal feelings and private matters.

"First of all, congratulations on becoming a Soul Saint."

A Soul Saint is a top-tier expert across the entire continent.

Even those forces that are willing to spend heavily on money must do so within their own territory.

Let alone a sect like the Xuanming Sect, even a top-tier sect like the Body Sect would value a Soul Saint highly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Xu Lingxiao smiled faintly.

Upon hearing this, a barely perceptible hint of resentment appeared in Mu Xue's eyes.

However, it only lasted for a moment.

"By the way, the reason I came to see you this time is to discuss the future development goals of our empire."

As soon as Mu Xue spoke, Xu Lingxiao's expression immediately became extremely serious.

The development goals of an empire are obvious; for an empire, the greatest development goal is undoubtedly expansion!

As for where to expand, both sides are tacitly aware of that.

Dou Ling Empire.

"The empire definitely needs to be developed properly."

Xu Lingxiao said with a serious expression, "However, now is not the best time for us."

Xu Lingxiao's current strength is indeed very impressive; he can even easily suppress ordinary Soul Douluos.

However, this battlefield is definitely not one that a Contra-level player can dominate.

Therefore, the Heavenly Soul Empire still needs to find a way to develop properly.

"In my opinion, the development of soul tools in China is indeed somewhat slow at present."

"Let's start developing in this area first." (End of Chapter)
