Douluo: Martial Soul Nine-Tailed Fox, I am the White Fox Emperor

"This Douluo Continent will ultimately belong to you."

Xue Qinghe stood up and bowed slightly to Hu Bai.

This bow marked the end of the Heavenly Dou Empire.

"I... no, I will draft the abdication edict and handover documents right now."

"Tian Dou City, we are willing to surrender."

Hu Bai stood up, his face showing no arrogance of a victor, only a calm acceptance.

He walked up to Xue Qinghe and patted the last emperor on the shoulder.

"Wise choice."

You'll find that today's decision is the best thing you've ever done in your life.

"correct."

Hu Bai turned around and walked towards the door.

"I will be staying at the Martial Soul Branch Hall in Heaven Dou City for the next few days."

"Remember to bring it over once your paperwork is done."

"in addition……"

"Don't try anything funny."

"My spiritual power covers the entire city."

"Nothing can escape my notice."

After saying that, Hu Bai, along with the snake spear and the porcupine, disappeared into the night.

Xue Qinghe was left alone, standing in the empty imperial study, looking at the waning moon outside the window.

"Tian Dou is doomed."

"But the Xue family still exists."

"Perhaps, this really is the best ending."

……

three days later.

Emperor Xue Qinghe of the Heavenly Dou Empire officially issued "A Letter to All Citizens".

To avoid widespread bloodshed, the Heaven Dou Empire announced its unconditional surrender and annexation into the Martial Soul Empire.

The original Tiandou City was retained and replaced by the "Tiandou Special Autonomous City".

Xue Qinghe relinquished his imperial title and changed it to "King of Heavenly Struggle," a title that would be passed down through generations.

The news caused a global uproar.

Some people condemned Xue Qinghe as spineless and a traitor who sold out his country for personal gain.

Some people breathed a sigh of relief, glad that they would finally be free from war.

But regardless of what others say.

In the north of this continent, the swan banner that had flown for thousands of years was finally slowly lowered.

Instead.

It was the golden six-winged angel flag of the Martial Soul Empire, and the nine-tailed celestial fox flag that symbolized the majesty of the Holy Son!

The upheaval in Tiandou City was like a Category 12 hurricane, instantly sweeping across the entire Douluo Continent.

The Heavenly Dou Empire, which had stood for thousands of years and possessed a million-strong army, was gone overnight?
No, to be precise, it has become the "Tiandou Autonomous City".

Although Xue Qinghe is still in power, and although the Tiandou royal family still exists.

But it's clear to anyone with eyes that the sky over this continent has completely changed color.

The territory of the Martial Soul Empire expanded wildly in just a few days, directly swallowing up half of the northern lands.

The mastermind behind all this, the enigmatic Holy Son of the Spirit Hall, Hu Bai, was currently flying in the air, his gaze fixed on the distant south.

That place is the last tough nut to crack in the Douluo Continent.

……

Star Luo Empire.

"Your Highness, the border of the Star Luo Empire is just ahead."

Serpent Spear Douluo She Long stood behind Hu Bai and respectfully reported.

At this moment, he had complete admiration for Hu Bai.

Originally, it was thought that they would go on a killing spree in Tiandou City, but it turned out that His Highness the Holy Son just went to have a chat and wiped out an entire empire.

This method is even more ingenious than His Holiness the Pope's.

Is this one of the benefits of good looks?
Hu Bai nodded, feeling the even hotter and more scorching air from the south.

“Xingluo…”

"Dai Mubai's hometown."

A playful smile appeared on Hu Bai's lips.

Compared to the delicate swans of the Heaven Dou royal family, the Evil-Eyed White Tiger of the Star Luo royal family is a genuine top-tier beast martial soul.

The local people are fierce and respect force.

You can't get them to back down just by talking.

We need to teach them a lesson.

"accelerate."

Hu Bai uttered two words in a low voice.

"Go directly to Xingluo City."

"I think that Emperor Xingluo must be getting impatient by now."

……

Xingluo City, the Royal Palace.

The architectural style here is completely different from the luxurious and exquisite Tiandou City.

Everywhere you look there are cold, hard lines, huge stones, and ubiquitous tiger sculptures.

The entire palace resembled a massive military fortress, exuding an aura of iron and blood.

But at this moment.

The master of this fortress, Emperor Dai Yutian of the Star Luo Empire, was sitting on his iron-blooded throne, his face so gloomy it could drip water.

"boom!"

He slammed his palm hard on the armrest, leaving a handprint on the iron armrest.

"waste!"

"That good-for-nothing Xue Qinghe!"

"Just because they don't want their country to perish, they're willing to become slaves of a conquered nation?!"

"Tiandou Autonomous City? That's utterly ridiculous!"

Dai Yutian roared, his voice echoing throughout the hall, causing the assembled officials below to tremble in fear.

He never expected that the Heavenly Dou Empire, which had persevered for a year even when it was at a disadvantage, would surrender so readily.

This left the Star Luo Empire instantly isolated and helpless.

Furthermore, it gave the Spirit Empire immense legitimacy on moral grounds.

"Your Majesty, calm down..."

Below, there is a middle-aged man wearing black armor.

He is the representative of the Duke of Youming's mansion and the current head of the Zhu family.

"The current situation is very unfavorable to us."

"Once the Heavenly Battle descends, the army of the Spirit Empire can be freed up to march south with all its might."

"and……"

After a moment's hesitation, the Zhu family head said, "According to intelligence, Hu Bai, the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall who facilitated the surrender of Heaven Dou City, has already left Heaven Dou City."

"His next target is very likely to be..."

"It is I!"

Dai Yutian snorted coldly, his eyes flashing with a fierce light.

"Let him come!"

"I want to see just how powerful this so-called Holy Son is!"

"In my Xingluo, there are only emperors who die in battle, not cowards who surrender!"

The voice just fell.

"Pah, pah, pah."

A burst of crisp applause suddenly rang out at the entrance of the main hall.

"well said."

"There is only death in battle, no surrender."

"Emperor Xingluo is indeed much more courageous than Tiandou."

The sound wasn't loud, but it clearly penetrated through layers of guards, exploding directly in everyone's ears.

"Who?!"

Dai Yutian suddenly stood up, and his soul power erupted instantly.

Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black.

Eight spirit rings pulsed beneath his feet, and a gigantic white tiger phantom roared behind him.

The empress beside him also revealed her martial spirit, and a nimble ghost cat attached itself to her back.

They're both eight-ring Soul Douluos!

All the Imperial Guards and Soul Masters inside the main hall instantly assumed battle stances.

All that could be seen was the entrance to the main hall.

The sunlight was blocked by a tall, slender figure.

Hu Bai, dressed in a platinum robe, strolled in leisurely.

Behind him, the two titled Douluo, Serpent Spear and Porcupine, stood like two guardian deities, radiating a suffocating pressure.

"You audacious scoundrel! How dare you trespass into the imperial palace!"

A commander of the Imperial Guards, who was also an eight-ring Soul Douluo, roared and charged directly at Hu Bai.

"Take him down!"

Hu Bai didn't even lift his eyelids.

He simply snapped his fingers.

"Certainly."

hum!
An invisible wave spread out instantly.

Million-Year Ice Dragon King's Left Leg Bone Skill - [Absolute Zero - Time Freeze]!
Although Hu Bai only used a small amount of his power, and it was only aimed at that commander.

But the effect is immediate.

The Contra warrior remained in his charging stance, his entire body instantly freezing in mid-air.

His expression remained one of anger, but his body was as still as an insect encased in amber.

Even the air around him was frozen into visible ice crystals. "Hiss!!"

The whole audience gasped.

one move!
No, he didn't even make a move!
Just one word was enough to instantly kill a Soul Master?!
What method is this? !

Dai Yutian's pupils suddenly contracted, and a storm raged in his heart.

This is no ordinary soul skill!

"You are Hu Bai? The Holy Son of the Spirit Empire?"

Dai Yutian stared intently at Hu Bai, his muscles taut to the extreme.

"Exactly."

Hu Bai smiled and waved his hand casually.

The frozen commander instantly thawed, fell to the ground gasping for breath, his eyes filled with terror.

Hu Bai ignored the commander and walked straight to the center of the hall.

Wherever he went, the courtiers on both sides seemed to be pushed aside by an invisible aura, automatically making way for him.

"Your Majesty Xingluo."

Hu Bai stopped at the steps below the throne and looked up at Dai Yutian.

Although he was looking up at the emperor, his aura completely overwhelmed him.

"I'm in a hurry, so I won't waste time."

"You should already know about the Heavenly Battle."

"I've come to give you the same 'gift'."

"Gift?"

Dai Yutian sneered, the tiger claw in his hand gleaming coldly.

"Do you want me to end up like Xue Qinghe, handing over the ancestral legacy to others?"

"dream!"

"I would rather fight to the last man with the Star Luo Empire than live a life of dishonor!"

"Roar!"

With a tiger's roar, Dai Yutian and the Empress unleashed their Martial Soul Fusion Technique: Netherworld White Tiger!
He knew that any probing was pointless when facing a powerhouse of this caliber.

Only by fighting desperately!

A gigantic, white tiger over ten meters long, exuding a chilling killing intent, pounced directly on Hu Bai.

This is a full-force attack comparable to that of a Title Douluo!
"Tsk."

Hu Bai shook his head helplessly.

"I already said we were in a hurry, why did you have to resort to violence?"

He didn't hide.

He didn't even release his martial spirit.

He simply raised his left arm.

A layer of crimson light shone forth.

Million-Year Fire Dragon King's Left Arm Bone Skill: [Lava God Armor]!
Of course, it's not necessary to use your full strength to deal with a Netherworld White Tiger whose strength is comparable to level 93 or 94.

He simply wanted to test the power of a divine-level soul bone.

A thin layer of red light shield appeared in front of him.

"boom!"

A huge tiger claw came down.

Smoke and dust were everywhere.

The officials scattered in terror and fled.

However, when the smoke and dust cleared...

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Hu Bai remained standing in the same spot, not even the hem of his clothes was ruffled.

The red light shield in front of him remained completely still.

The Netherworld White Tiger was directly thrown back.

"what?!"

Dai Yutian was greatly alarmed.

And just then.

"Snapped."

Hu Bai gently placed one of his hands on the forehead of the giant Netherworld White Tiger.

This hand looks fair and slender, but lacks any sense of strength.

But at this moment, Dai Yutian felt as if an ancient divine mountain was pressing down on him!
"Get down."

Hu Bai said calmly.

boom!
The enormous Netherworld White Tiger couldn't withstand the terrifying pressure; its limbs went limp, and it was forced to the ground!

The ground cracked instantly, creating a huge crater.

"you……"

Dai Yutian wanted to struggle, wanted to roar.

But to his horror, he discovered that the soul power within his body had been completely sealed off by an extreme force of ice and fire!
Their royal family's prized Netherworld White Tiger was as fragile as a kitten in front of this young man!

"That's the gap."

Hu Bai looked down at him.

"Your Majesty Xingluo."

"Do you think you can succeed based on yourself, or on the vast army behind you?"

"Can you stop me?"

The entire room fell silent; everyone was stunned by what they had just witnessed.

Their emperor was actually knocked down in one move?

This is so dreamy!
Hu Bai released his grip and took a step back.

The oppressive feeling vanished instantly.

Dai Yutian and the other person returned to human form, panting heavily, their faces as pale as paper.

But he was, after all, a powerful and ruthless man, and his eyes remained stubborn.

"You are strong."

"Absolutely ridiculously strong."

"I admit, I am no match for you."

"but……"

Dai Yutian gritted his teeth and stared intently at Hu Bai.

"Even if you kill me, kill my princes."

"The people of Xingluo will not yield!"

"Our White Tiger clan only has headless corpses, not bent backs!"

"it is good!"

Hu Bai clapped his hands.

"I admire your toughness."

Hu Bai walked to a chair and sat down, gesturing for Dai Yutian to sit as well.

"Now that we've fought, and you've seen our strength, that's enough."

"Now can we have a proper talk?"

Dai Yutian snorted coldly, straightened his disheveled dragon robe, and sat back on his throne.

The loser does not lose the formation.

"What do you want to talk about?"

"Should we talk about surrendering? No way!"

Hu Bai smiled.

"We will not discuss surrender."

"Let's talk about inheritance."

“Inheritance?” Dai Yutian frowned.

"Yes."

Hu Bai pointed to the Zhu family head below, and then to Dai Yutian.

"White Tiger Martial Soul, Netherworld Cat Martial Soul."

"And your Martial Soul Fusion Skill—Netherworld White Tiger."

"This is the foundation of the Star Luo Empire, and it can be considered a treasure of the Soul Master world."

Hu Bai's voice became somewhat low: "Your Majesty, have you ever thought about this?"

"If you really choose to perish together with the enemy."

"After you die, the White Tiger lineage will be completely wiped out by the Martial Soul Empire."

"At that time, there will be no more Evil-Eyed White Tiger in this world."

"That powerful Netherworld White Tiger will also become a cold passage in the history books."

"you……"

Dai Yutian's expression changed.

He wasn't afraid of dying, but he was afraid of losing his legacy!
I fear that when I reach the afterlife, I will have no face to face my ancestors!

Hu Bai continued, "I know you're not convinced."

"Perhaps you think that as long as the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan and the Clear Sky Sect still exist, you have hope."

"but……"

Hu Bai chuckled dismissively.

Do you think they can save you?

"The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan only has one Yu Yuanzhen, level 95."

"Although the Haotian Sect has some foundation, it's nothing special."

"And my Martial Soul Empire..."

Hu Bai held up five fingers.

"The Hall of Offerings has nine enshrined officials, all of whom are at least level 96!"

"The Elder Hall, with over a dozen Title Douluos!"

"Not to mention……"
