Transmigrating into Douluo Continent as Dai Mubai, a mutated Gengjin White Tiger

Chapter 77 The Situation in Xingluo

Meanwhile, fierce conflicts had erupted within the Star Luo Empire's court.

After all, Davis and Zhu Zhuyun were beaten so badly that his supporters began to criticize Dai Mubai.

The King of the Star Luo Empire originally did not want to get involved in this matter, since it was an ancestral rule that whoever won would inherit the throne.

However, he was somewhat displeased when he learned that Davis had lost his fertility as a result, especially considering Dai Mubai's overwhelming advantage.

Injuring or even seriously injuring others is common in the Star Luo Empire's past battles, but to go to such lengths and openly kill the team leader only added fuel to the fire.

After all, in his eyes, regardless of whether it was a crime committed by the Star Luo Royal Academy, they could be apprehended first, and then he would interrogate them or give orders on how to deal with them.

Dai Mubai's actions made him feel that his authority had been challenged, so Emperor Dai Yutian of the Star Luo Empire looked at the crowd below who wanted to criticize Dai Mubai and made the final decision.

"The Second Prince has gone too far in this matter. I will make a decision on his own when he returns."

Those in the imperial court were satisfied with Dai Yutian's words, as they had achieved the result they desired.

Dai Yutian, on the other hand, thought he could use this incident to teach Dai Mubai a lesson, after all, no matter how outstanding his talent was.

Since he is currently only a prince, not even the crown prince, Dai Yutian intends to properly train Dai Mubai in order to demonstrate his imperial power.

After the court session ended that night, a worried voice came from a prince's residence in the darkness.

"Your Highness, that good-for-nothing Davis has fallen, but Dai Yutian's stance on the matter seems rather unclear. What should we do?"

The man referred to as the Prince is none other than Dalyn, the current representative of the royal family who supports the Davis family.

The prince, dressed in a magnificent golden robe, exuded an air of authority. Though he appeared to be only middle-aged, he was actually close to eighty years old.

His own cultivation level has reached the Title Douluo level. Although he is not as good as Dai Yutian, his current cultivation level is still 92.

"We don't need to worry about this good-for-nothing. Dai Mubai's seemingly complete transformation in the past year is indeed suspicious. However, since Dai Yutian has given Dai Mubai a warning, we don't need to rush. We can just go with the flow. Whether he can stay in jail as the crown prince depends on whether we agree to it."

After explaining the situation in a deep voice, Dai Lin dismissed the person in front of him. Dai Lin then looked at Dai Mubai's experiences over the past year again, and couldn't help but clench the documents tightly, muttering to himself with greedy eyes.

"Heh, with such strength, I don't believe there's nothing fishy going on behind your back. If I can get the secret you hold, I might also have a chance to get involved in that field."

Seven days later

"Boss, we should be able to get to your territory tomorrow, right? Hehe, how about you bestow upon me a dukedom for fun?"

Ma Hongjun longed for Xingluo City and couldn't help but fantasize about what it would be like to become a duke.

"Do you think I'm going back to inherit the throne? And your lifelong goal is just to become a duke?"

Dai Mubai couldn't help but roll his eyes at Ma Hongjun's whimsical idea, and then felt somewhat helpless about Ma Hongjun's ambition. Why would a genius soul master have such a pointless ambition?

"Hehe, I was just kidding. My goal is, of course, to get my account banned."

Seeing this, Ma Hongjun smiled and changed his ambition again.

"Is having a high-ranking title really that impressive? Your goals are disproportionate to your talent."

At this moment, Gu Yuena spoke coldly, as a titled Douluo was nothing to her, and she and Dai Mubai expected Ma Hongjun to be at least a first-level god.

Upon hearing this, the crowd looked at Gu Yuena in disbelief, as if a titled Douluo was nothing more than a common cabbage in her mouth.

When she met everyone's gaze, Gu Yuena realized that, given the current situation and the lack of sufficient divine positions, what she had said was indeed somewhat awkward.

"What Gu Yuena means is, Fatty, do you want to be one of the nine who can be defeated by Tang Hao alone, or do you want to be a top-tier Title Douluo who can easily defeat Tang Hao?"

Dai Mubai noticed Gu Yuena's embarrassment and quickly came to her rescue.

However, this also shows that Gu Yuena is increasingly trusting the group, which is why she speaks so casually about certain things.

Everyone nodded in agreement. After all, even though they were all titled Douluo, with their talents, who would want to be one of the nine who were knocked away?

Seeing this, Gu Yuena gave a grateful smile, a scene that made Zhu Zhuqing think more deeply.

Although Dai Mubai had explained it before, Gu Yuena's tendency to only smile when facing Dai Mubai still made him somewhat worried.

Time flew by, and a day later they arrived at Xingluo City, the capital of the Xingluo Empire.

The cultivation levels of the soldiers guarding the city and the patrolling soldiers, as well as the martial atmosphere within the city, are completely different from those in Xingluo City.

Seeing the atmosphere so different from that of Tiandou City, everyone couldn't help but sigh. Zhu Zhuqing smiled and gently introduced Xingluo City to everyone.

Just then, a line of soldiers rushed up to them, their eyes seemingly harboring ill intentions, leaving everyone bewildered.

After all, their own troops included the current prince and princess, so why were these soldiers looking at them as if they were criminals?

It was the leader who spoke first and explained the situation to everyone.

"Your Highness, His Majesty has been waiting for you for a long time. Please come with us to the palace first."

Even the most clueless among them realized that this was a demand for retribution for Dai Mubai's killing of a teacher at the Star Luo Royal Academy.

Seeing this, the crowd looked at the soldiers with hostility, and the atmosphere between the two sides became tense.

This commander showed no fear of the Shrek Seven Devils. Not only was he a Soul Saint, but his act of fighting the Star Luo Empire's commander in the street was enough to punish them.

Dai Mubai nodded and coldly questioned him.

"And where is your token? And the certificate my father gave you that allowed you to take a prince away on the street?"

Dai Mubai's questioning caught the commander somewhat off guard, since he belonged to Dai Lin's side and was simply acting according to the rules.

Seeing this, the commander's expression turned somewhat unpleasant, but he still stubbornly insisted on his position.

"Your Highness, I am only following the rules. Please do not make things difficult for me."

"Besides my father, whose orders would be enough to allow you to arrest a prince in the street? I'd like to see."

Dai Mubai did not back down at all, and coldly questioned them, and for a moment the two sides seemed to be on the verge of fighting again.

"This commander probably takes His Majesty's orders very seriously, so he forgot to bring a few things. How about we let our companions settle down first, and then we can prepare ourselves before going to see His Majesty? After all, it would be impolite to go to see His Majesty in such a travel-worn state. What do you think, Commander?"

Zhu Zhuqing spoke at the right moment, easing the tense atmosphere between the two sides. Her words also made the commander back down.

"Alright, then we'll do as the Third Princess Consort says. However, we'll wait patiently, and we invite you both to go see His Majesty together when the time comes."

After speaking, the commander followed behind Shrek Academy and his group, and Dai Mubai settled everyone in his manor outside.

"Mu Bai, it seems that the people behind Davis are eager to punish us because of that incident."

Zhu Zhuqing sighed and spoke. Although she had enjoyed what Dai Mubai did at the time and supported him, she was now worried that Dai Mubai's lack of preparation might lead to others trying to make things difficult for him.

"What are you afraid of? If all else fails, just call His Majesty Dugu over and we'll break out!"

Upon hearing this, Ma Hongjun slammed his fist on the table in dissatisfaction, his anger rising as he declared that he was prepared to take a desperate gamble.

"Fatty's right, my grandpa has decided to come!"

Dugu Yan also voiced her support for Ma Hongjun's plan.

"There's no need for that. At least for now, facing it head-on is the most rational approach. After all, if we really fall out, we'll be losing more than we gain by incurring the wrath of the entire Star Luo Empire."

Oscar immediately stepped in to help everyone analyze the pros and cons.

"That's right. Don't be too hasty right now. This alone is not enough to punish a prince like me. Besides, he was in the wrong first. Let's go and see him first."

After comforting everyone, Dai Mubai took Zhu Zhuqing's hand and whispered to reassure her again, telling her that she would face it herself when the time came.

Zhu Zhuqing felt a warmth in her heart upon hearing this, and gained confidence in the situation. Moreover, she had no intention of letting Dai Mubai face this alone.

The two then followed their commander and soon arrived at the Star Luo Imperial Palace.

At this moment, two middle-aged men were playing chess. After the man with the crown on his head finished his move, he looked at Dai Mubai and spoke coldly.

"You're finally back."
