Chapter 57 You Haven't Graduated Yet

Old Ancestor Dai has been a powerful figure for decades and has seen many titled Douluo.

There are quite a few people stronger than him, but surely their physical abilities aren't so overwhelmingly different?

He's gripping Danheng's shoulders with all his might.

But the other person didn't move an inch, giving him the feeling that...

An ant trying to shake a tree!

That's why he raised this fundamental question.

Dan Heng shook his head slightly and said, "I don't have time to mess around with you. Please move aside."

He also needed to hurry up and avenge his wife before going to the realm of gods to retrieve some medicinal herbs to cure her illness.

Old Master Dai quickly loosened his grip on Dan Heng's shoulder.

Although Dan Heng did not show any fierce expression on his face when he spoke, his tone was also very calm.

But it gave him the feeling that he would die if he didn't obey.

In that case, he would have no courage left.

It's not that he's afraid of death, but Dan Heng's aura... is very strange.

Following beside Dan Heng, Elder Dai's relaxed expression vanished as he asked, "Um... what exactly is your identity? Why did you come to the palace? Who are you seeking revenge against? Are you leaving after this?"

Dai Laozu, who was the previous emperor of Xingluo, was known for his iron-fisted nature and always kept his word.

But now, while following Danheng, his attitude has completely changed, and his tone is unusually gentle.

There was no way around it, he was scared!

The sudden infiltration of such an unparalleled expert as Dan Heng into his hometown suggests that his strength is unfathomable.

Once it erupts, it will be an absolute catastrophe for the Star Luo royal family, who are currently completely unprepared!

How could he not panic?!

If a nuclear bomb were placed at your doorstep, you'd be lucky to not utter a sound, let alone tremble!

"Leave after you've taken your revenge."

Dan Heng frowned and quickened his pace.

……

The central pavilion in the Imperial Garden.

Empress Zhu brought Davis and the Zhu sisters to this place to cool off and admire the colorful flowers.

Just now in the room, Zhu Zhuqing actually talked back to me.

Although Empress Zhu did not say anything on the spot, she was very displeased.

The palace maids on both sides fanned them, and Empress Zhu looked at Zhu Zhuqing, who was standing to the side like a silent gourd, and a thoughtful look flashed in her eyes.

Zhu Zhuqing actually defied her own mother-in-law, the Empress, for the sake of a man from another family.

This indicates that the two must have a very close relationship.

"Zhuqing, have you had any insights into your cultivation lately?" Empress Zhu asked calmly.

Davis and Zhu Zhuyun both looked at Zhu Zhuqing. It was clear that Empress Zhu was going to give Zhu Zhuqing a warning, and they could just watch the show.

Zhu Zhuqing snapped out of her daze and replied:

"have."

Empress Zhu waited for a while, but Zhu Zhuqing did not respond. Her fake smile was about to crumble.

Sure enough, she still found it hard to like this little niece!

"Auntie, speaking of which, Zhuqing has become quite bold these days, even daring to challenge me to a duel," Zhu Zhuyun said with a smile, trying to smooth things over for Zhu Zhuqing.

Empress Zhu smiled dismissively upon hearing this, glanced at Zhu Zhuqing, and shook her head.

"That's good. At least your teacher... gave you the courage to face the gap. That courage is the best result he could achieve."

Hearing Empress Zhu's disdain, Zhu Zhuqing was displeased.

In her heart, the teacher is the best!

What gives you the right to evaluate a teacher?

Zhu Zhuqing said calmly, "My teacher also taught me this..."

As the sound was emitted, three spirit rings rose from beneath Zhu Zhuqing's feet, with the last purple spirit ring appearing at the same time.

The smile on Empress Zhu's face vanished immediately.

According to their calculations, Zhu Zhuqing would have to wait until she was at least thirteen years old to break through to the Soul Venerable realm.

But what's going on now?

Zhu Zhuqing not only reached the Soul Master realm, but the color of her soul rings also seemed to be darker than those of her contemporaries!

A look of shock flashed in Zhu Zhuyun's beautiful eyes.

No wonder her younger sister dared to challenge her; it turns out the two of them were already at the same level!

But why?

Zhu Zhuqing is only twelve years old!

Davis's expression turned somber. Zhu Zhuqing's increased strength meant that his chances of winning the selection were lower.

Moreover, Zhu Zhuqing has become so strong, wouldn't her younger brother, who disappeared from her sight for more than three years, be even stronger?

Just as everyone fell into an eerie silence.

A sound of footsteps approached quickly.

The guards who had been hiding in the shadows suddenly rushed out and surrounded the pavilion.

A few seconds later, a disheveled figure approached.

It was Charles who had hastily fled from the mansion.

He ran up to him, and as the "head of the royal bodyguards," his face was still recognizable.

The guards didn't act immediately; they just kept a watchful eye on him.

Empress Zhu's attention was drawn to this, and she asked in a cold voice, "What's going on? Charles, what's with this flustered behavior?"

Charles knelt on the ground, his face pale, and said urgently:

"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened! That woman's husband is no ordinary person. He... he's terrifying! He'll definitely kill me! He..." Charles stammered, as if he had been frightened by something.

Empress Zhu frowned. "Make him quiet!"

Immediately, a guard stepped forward and slapped Charles twice.

After recovering from the pain, Charles began to recount the events that had transpired.

Of course, he would definitely have to hide some issues.

For example, it might not be that he was attracted to Murasaki's beauty, but rather that he noticed something was wrong with Murasaki and that her sudden approach might be intended to harm the royal family.

Through his elaborate scheme, Dan Heng was indeed portrayed as a treacherous schemer.

Empress Zhu pondered for a moment, then looked at Zhu Zhuqing and said knowingly, "I understand. Zhuqing, you've been deceived. Your teacher is no ordinary person; he wants to use you to achieve his ulterior motives against the Xingluo royal family."

"???" Zhu Zhuqing blinked.

Teacher...would you go to so much trouble to do so many things?

It's not that Zhu Zhuqing is slandering her teacher; it's just that Dan Heng is truly a "salted fish"!

"No wonder, he pretended to be lazy at the time, he was so cunning!" Zhu Zhuyun recalled, a look of lingering fear on her face.

If Dan Heng had been hostile to him at the time, it would have been very difficult for him not to fall into his trap!

And Zhu Zhuqing, who brought them this danger, became a breakthrough point...

All eyes turned to Zhu Zhuqing, their eyes filled with a hint of resentment.

It was all because Zhu Zhuqing acted on her own initiative and actually took a man from another family as her teacher that the other party was able to take advantage of her!

"Charles, be quiet. He can't possibly have come all the way to the palace, can he?"

Empress Zhu frowned.

Charles, however, could not remain calm, even though Dan Heng had not said anything threatening to him.

But he had a feeling that Dan Heng would definitely come!

"Your Majesty, please listen to me, he..."

"Who goes there?!"

The guards suddenly shouted at a small path.

All eyes turned to him, and a figure was walking quickly toward him, his target being Charles!

"He's here!!!"

Charles shouted, then collapsed to the ground, unable to move.
