Douluo Continent: Huo Yuhao's Dual Transmigration into the Peerless Dragon King

Chapter 349 I may grant you the title of Prince!

Dai Tianling smiled and took Huo Yuhao's hand, leading him to the sofa area on one side of the study: "Come, come, Yuhao, come and sit down, don't stand there talking."

After the two sat down on the sofa, Dai Tianling spoke again, his tone full of unreserved admiration: "You're the top-ranked young genius on the Federation's list, and the Spirit Pagoda even made an exception for you by granting you the title of 'Spirit Pagoda Master.' Your name is renowned throughout the Star Luo Empire."

Huo Yuhao remained calm and composed, merely nodding slightly and politely replying, "Your Majesty flatters me. I merely gained some empty fame by chance, which is not worth mentioning."

Dai Tianling's interest was not diminished by Huo Yuhao's indifference at all; on the contrary, her smile became even more enthusiastic.

"Yuhao, you're too modest. Xingluo can also see the video footage of your battles in the Federation."

"Although I'm not exactly a top-tier expert, I still have some discernment—"

Outside the study, Dai Yueyan was still standing at the door, not having left.

He placed his hands naturally at his sides, his face expressionless, but his ears were perked up like a rabbit's, listening to every word of the conversation in the study.

As he listened, a strange look gradually appeared on his handsome and dashing face.

Because no matter how he listened, he felt that his father, the Emperor of Xingluo, was being far too kind at that moment.

Huo Yuhao maintained a lukewarm attitude throughout, basically just repeating the three-piece set of "Hmm," "Yes," and "Your Majesty is too kind."

But Dai Tianling's enthusiasm did not diminish at all, and his praises flowed like a never-ending river.

In such a stark contrast, his eager and enthusiastic manner seemed almost ingratiating.

Huo Yuhao patiently listened to Dai Tianling's flattery for a while, and finally found an opportunity to interrupt him during a breather.

"Your Majesty, please speak frankly about why you have summoned me here today."

Dai Tianling was about to say something but was forced to swallow it back. He paused for a moment, then a smile returned to his face.

He stopped beating around the bush, and his tone became more serious than before: "Since you've put it that way, Yuhao, then I won't beat around the bush either. But with your intelligence, you should be able to guess why I've summoned you here, right?"

Huo Yuhao glanced at the portrait on the wall that looked exactly like him, and said in his usual calm tone, "Because of my name, because of my appearance."

Dai Tianling quickly added, "It's also because of your martial spirit."

Huo Yuhao showed no surprise upon hearing this. It was entirely expected that the other party could obtain video footage of his previous battles and knew about his Spirit Eye Martial Soul.

Dai Tianling's smile finally faded. He placed his hands on his knees, leaned forward slightly, and his tone was no longer filled with the empty pleasantries and formalities of before. Instead, he went straight to the point.

"If it's just a matter of physical resemblance, it could perhaps be explained as a coincidence."

"But not only do you look exactly like that ancestor, your martial soul is also the Spirit Eye, a rare talent only seen once in ten thousand years. Do you know what that means when you combine the two?"

Huo Yuhao raised his eyes and met Dai Tianling's gaze calmly, but did not answer.

Dai Tianling took a deep breath, his chest rising and falling slightly, and then said, word by word, "This means that you are very likely a direct descendant of Lingbing Douluo Huo Yuhao."

"This means that you share the same bloodline as the White Tiger of the Star Luo Royal Family."

Despite Dai Tianling's increasingly excited and even slightly trembling tone, Huo Yuhao still showed no obvious emotional fluctuations.

He simply gazed silently at the already moved Star Luo Emperor before him, and after a moment of silence, said in a still calm tone, "Even so, so what?"

"So what?"

Dai Tianling clearly hadn't expected Huo Yuhao to react so nonchalantly. He subconsciously repeated his question, then his voice suddenly rose a few decibels.

"Yuhao, as long as you are willing to come to the Star Luo Empire, I can give you the title of Prince, making you second only to the Emperor in the Star Luo Continent."

"The resources accumulated in the royal treasury over thousands of years are at your disposal, and all cultivation secret realms are open to you."

"You will be the person I trust most, and the entire Star Luo Empire will be your strongest support!"

Dai Tianling's excitement was not due to any blood relation; he was simply drawn to Huo Yuhao's talent.

In his view, as long as Huo Yuhao doesn't perish prematurely, he is destined to become a Limit Douluo in the future.

The ultimate martial force of Limit Douluo, capable of single-handedly changing the outcome of a war, is precisely the top-tier combat power that the Star Luo Empire currently lacks most.

Therefore, he would naturally not let go of such a peerless genius who might have the blood of the White Tiger lineage, after all, this was also an excellent opportunity to make the Star Luo Empire great again.

However, Huo Yuhao remained unmoved by Dai Tianling's sincere invitation.

He slowly began, "Your Majesty, I am doing very well at the Spirit Pagoda, and I have no shortage of cultivation resources—"

"Is the Spirit Pagoda a good place?"

Dai Tianling interrupted Huo Yuhao directly, her tone carrying a profound meaning: "You were in the academy during that catastrophe at Shrek Academy, and you almost perished under the fixed-position soul-guided cannon."

"The Spirit Pagoda is not a monolithic entity; factional struggles have never truly subsided."

"You are the disciple of Tianfeng Douluo Leng Yaozhu, and Tower Master Qian Gu Dongfeng may not be willing to watch you grow up peacefully."

Even without evidence, some things are clear to anyone with discerning eyes.

Although Dai Tianling did not explicitly name Qian Gu Dong Feng as the mastermind behind the scenes, the implication in his words was quite clear.

After a long silence, Huo Yuhao said, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. I will always remember this regard."

"9

"But I was an orphan since I was a child and was raised by my teacher. I am a member of the Spirit Pagoda and will not come to Xingluo."

Seeing the unwavering determination in Huo Yuhao's eyes, Dai Tianling opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something more to persuade him to stay.

But after a few moments, the words turned into a helpless sigh, and he didn't press the matter any further.

He genuinely admired this young man and truly wanted the Star Luo Empire to have another future Limit Douluo to oversee it.

But since the other party had made up their mind, he, as an emperor, could not lower himself and beg them to stay.

However, just as Dai Tianling was filled with disappointment, Huo Yuhao smiled slightly and took the initiative to speak, saying, "Your Majesty, although I am unwilling to leave the Spirit Pagoda to come to the Star Luo Empire, I have no ill intentions towards Star Luo."

"If there is an opportunity in the future, I am willing to help Your Majesty to the best of my ability, so as to repay the kindness of Your Majesty's invitation today."

These words made Dai Tianling's eyes, which had dimmed, suddenly light up again.

If Huo Yuhao can truly grow up smoothly, with his talent and the strong support of Leng Yaozhu behind him, it is not entirely impossible for him to seize the position of Tower Master of the Spirit Transmission Tower from the Ancient Clan in the future.

As a colossal structure spanning three continents, the Spirit Pagoda holds a pivotal position in the Douluo Federation.

If the future master of the Spirit Pagoda can establish good relations with the Star Luo Empire, it would be far more meaningful for Star Luo than obtaining a Limit Douluo.

Dai Tianling let out a long breath, and a relieved smile returned to his face: "Since that's the case, then I won't force you anymore. But Yuhao, remember this: no matter when or where, the gates of the Star Luo Empire will always be open to you."

Huo Yuhao smiled, then changed the subject: "Thank you again, Your Majesty, but I do have a favor to ask. I would like to ask Your Majesty for a help."
