Chapter 128 Extortion!

An inexplicable silence suddenly descended upon the magnificent mansion of Duke Baihu. Even the wind chimes in the most ordinary Fengling Courtyard seemed to hold their breath and remain silent.

Dai Hao's forehead muscles tensed, and his eyes, which had been filled with joy, were instantly clouded with anger. His pleasant expectations were ruthlessly destroyed.

His angry voice echoed through the wide forecourt:

"Who dares to cause trouble at my White Tiger Duke's mansion!"

The sound reverberated through the layers of bluestone corridors, and nine agile and lustrous spirit rings slowly rose from beneath Dai Hao's feet, alternating in yellow, purple, and black, demonstrating his supreme strength as a Title Douluo.

What followed was an undeniable aura that quietly spread throughout the ornately decorated mansion, as if it were about to take over every corner.

The servants held their breath and remained motionless in the face of this awe-inspiring aura. The oppressive feeling made them even cautious about breathing, knowing that the owner of the aura was in the midst of a thunderous rage.

However, just as the sound waves stabilized, a disdainful retort broke through this encirclement of power:

"What? Is the White Tiger Duke's Mansion really that arrogant?"

Then came an even more compelling accusation.

"No wonder he was able to raise a son who hired someone to commit murder."

Suddenly, a dark green light appeared in the sky. This light was like a shooting star or a swift arrow. It approached from afar, and its speed was too fast to catch. The next moment, the cold and handsome figure had already entered everyone's field of vision.

Dai Hao's pupils constricted, and upon closer inspection, his heart surged like a turbulent sea, unable to calm down. The charisma he had already displayed was silently withdrawn.

He slowly clenched his fists, bowed slightly without arrogance or haughtiness, and said in a deep voice:

"So it was Your Majesty in your true form. I was being presumptuous just now."

A barely perceptible sense of awkwardness and unease hung in the air, he added further,

"I wonder what brings Your Majesty to my humble abode?"

Poison Undying snorted coldly, glancing at the scene out of the corner of his eye:

"What brings you here?"

"Your good son, Dai Huabin, instigated his servants at Shrek Academy to assassinate my disciple."

"What do you think we should do about this?"

"If you find it difficult, then I'll do it for you."

After saying that, the dark green light on Du Busi’s body suddenly rose up, as if he was about to carry out what he said he would “do”.

Dai Hao immediately broke out in a cold sweat, thinking to himself, "How could this be? Although Dai Huabin is ruthless and violent, he's not very bright. It's unlikely that he would hire someone to kill someone."

Could it be a deliberate slander?

Are you trying to cause me trouble using this?

Thinking of this, Dai Hao felt a surge of dissatisfaction. Did they really think that he, the God of War of the Empire, the White Tiger Douluo, was easy to bully?

He said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, you say my son instigated his servants to assassinate your disciple. Do you have any evidence?"

"evidence?"

Why should I need evidence to do my things?

"I disdain lying; whether you believe me or not is up to you."

Poison Undying spoke with utter disdain. As a Super Douluo, he possessed a certain arrogance and wouldn't just make up a reason.

Seeing the way Du Bu Si spoke with such certainty, Dai Hao felt a chill in his heart. It seemed that this matter was most likely true.

If you want to target the White Tiger lineage, you can simply take action directly; there's really no need to come up with a special reason.

What a rebellious son! All he does all day is cause trouble for his father. Has he lost his mind?

Dai Hao muttered to himself, "No matter what, Dai Huabin is still my son."

My son made a mistake, and now that people have come knocking on our door, we should try to resolve it if we can.

Moreover, the opponent is the Sect Master of the Body Sect, someone they can't afford to offend.

"Your Majesty, since that's the case, I apologize on behalf of my son."

"Once he returns to his family, I will personally take him to the Body Sect to apologize. You can handle everything then."

Dai Hao forced an awkward smile and said cautiously.

"Your attitude is good, as expected of the White Tiger Duke. Since you're so sincere..."

Upon hearing this, Dai Hao smiled slightly, and the next moment...

"In addition to the conditions you just mentioned, add two more 50,000-year-old soul bones, and this matter will be settled."

Dai Hao's face stiffened; he knew this matter was not going to end well.

These people from the Body Sect are truly the type who won't act until they see a clear benefit.

He originally intended to just make an empty promise, since his son was at Shrek Academy and it was uncertain when he would return.

Maybe they'll forget about it themselves by then, and that won't be his problem.

Poison Undying sneered inwardly. Who cares about your apology? If you don't produce something real, then the White Tiger Duke has no reason to exist today.

As for why we don't want a 100,000-year-old soul bone?

I really don't think they have the ability to kill poison; just look at the spirit rings on Dai Hao's body.

The ninth ring is all black; there isn't a single 100,000-year spirit ring.

The White Tiger Martial Soul is indeed good, but it's not actually that powerful.

Many beast spirits can surpass them.

The fact that the head of a clan only has black spirit rings is a telling sign.

Their foundation is very weak, far inferior to Shrek Academy and the Body Sect.

Dai Hao remained expressionless and said in a deep voice:

"Your Majesty, aren't these conditions a bit excessive?"

"Two 50,000-year-old soul bones are quite a burden for our family."

Poisonless's eyes lit up. "It's just a burden, that's fine then."

It seems they do have some resources.

"This is the bottom line, and it absolutely cannot be changed."

"If you don't give it to me, I don't mind helping you go look for it."

"If this huge mansion gets damaged during the search, please bear with us."

blackmail!

This is blatant extortion!

Dai Hao was instantly enraged. If Du Bu Si were allowed to search the mansion at will, what would become of the White Tiger Duke's mansion's reputation?

However, he couldn't withstand the power of the poison-ineffective poison, and no matter how unwilling he was, he could only accept it with a heavy heart.

"A wise man doesn't suffer a loss in front of him; a hero is one who understands the times."

Dai Hao tried to comfort himself, then looked at the First Madam beside him.

"Madam, are those two pieces of soul bone still in our manor?"

Dai Hao pulled his wife aside and they began to whisper to each other.

However, this commotion could not escape the notice of Du Busi, whose expression grew increasingly strange as he listened.

After a while, Dai Hao finally pulled the First Madam back over.

Looking at the Poison Undying in front of him, Dai Hao said with some frustration:

"Your Majesty, I do indeed have two 50,000-year-old soul bones in my residence, and I am willing to offer them up."

"I hope this matter can be dropped."

After saying that, he produced two silvery, bone-like objects in his hands.

"These are two soul bones of the Crimson Flame Black Tiger, both leg bones, one on the left and one on the right, both aged 50,000 years. Today, I present them to Your Majesty."

With a touch of reluctance, Dai Hao handed the two leg bones to Du Busi, knowing that these were originally intended for his eldest son, Dai Yueheng.

We were planning to let him absorb the knowledge when he graduated and came back, and now it's all good.

They've all been given away.

"Yueheng, I can only think of a way for you another day."

Seeing the satisfied smile on Du Busi's face, Dai Hao felt as if he had eaten shit.

But all he could do was smile, a forced, ingratiating smile.

As a dignified military god of the empire, the Duke of White Tiger, second only to the emperor, when had he ever felt so humiliated?

"Fine, seeing how sincere you are, let's just let this matter go. If this happens again, your White Tiger Duke's Mansion will cease to exist."

"snort!"

With a flick of his sleeve, Du Busi was enveloped in a dark green light and vanished from the spot in the blink of an eye.

About two minutes later, Dai Hao's expression suddenly turned ugly.

He couldn't help but growl in a low voice:

"Someone, bring that unfilial son Dai Huabin back to me. I'm going to teach him a lesson about family discipline."

"Relying on his family's power, he's been causing trouble outside, and now he's gotten himself into this huge mess."

The thought of losing two ancient soul bones made Dai Hao feel terrible.

These two ten-thousand-year-old soul bones are extremely precious to their family.

Now he's been completely taken advantage of by Dai Huabin. If I had known, I should have just left him on the rape machine that night and let him fend for himself.

"Brother Hao, calm down."

"Hua Bin is still young, so he might have been instigated to do something like this."

"He's still our son, and he's currently studying at Shrek Academy. Isn't it inappropriate to bring him back now?"

The First Madam, who was standing to the side, couldn't hold back any longer. She hadn't dared to say a word when Poison hadn't died right next to her.

Now that he's gone, she suddenly couldn't hold back her emotions.

In her view, her son had done nothing wrong.

He was just too young and made some mistakes that nobles often make, plus he was a bit unlucky and assassinated the wrong person.

If it had just been an ordinary student, none of this would have happened.

"You just spoil your son all you want, huh!"

What he said just now was obviously just an angry outburst. Dai Huabin really can't come back right now; he has an important mission at Shrek Academy.

Just as the First Madam was about to say something more...

You'll sleep alone tonight.

Dai Hao snorted angrily and walked away without looking back.

Upon hearing this, the First Madam's smile froze, and she stomped her foot in a hint of anger. She then lifted her skirt and hurriedly followed Dai Hao.

"Brother Hao, wait for me."

--------

Star Emperor Hotel.

Han Yu and the others were packing their things, preparing to return to the Body Sect, when a burst of laughter came from behind them.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Poison Undying's figure suddenly appeared in the living room.

"Teacher, you seem so happy. Did you have a good harvest?"

Han Yu naturally knew what Du Busi was up to; it was he who had told Du Busi.

Now that we've come to Star Luo City, and given what happened at Shrek Academy, it's time to settle accounts one by one.

Some things always have to be paid for by someone, otherwise, wouldn't he become someone who is easy to bully?

Poison Undying walked to the sofa with his hands behind his back and sat down with a smile on his face.

"It's alright, I managed to get two tiger-type soul bones that are about 50,000 years old, and they're only from the legs."

"What a poor bastard, not even a single 100,000-year-old soul bone."

"Poison Never Dies" said with a hint of disdain.

"Come on, teacher."

"Who are you trying to fool with that 'you got a good deal but are still acting innocent' attitude?"

"We're all on the same side, so there's no need for this formality."

Han Yu said somewhat speechlessly, "A 50,000-year soul bone is really good. It's basically the first choice for most Soul Douluos to become Title Douluos."

A soul bone from 100,000 years ago?

This is something you can only dream about; aside from some top-tier forces, most forces don't actually have it.

What kind of power is the White Tiger Duke's Mansion now?

To put it bluntly, it's just a second-rate family power.

Above that are top-tier sects like the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, and above that are top-tier forces like Shrek Academy.

Han Yu was quite surprised that they could produce a soul bone of this level.

"Hahaha!"

"That's true, not everyone can have the kind of foundation our sect has."

"Let's go, it's time to return to the sect."

"You all performed well this time. I will reward you handsomely when we return to the sect."

Du Bu Si laughed and led the group towards the outside of the Star Luo Empire.

There were still many people in Xingluo Square at this moment, after all, the Soul Master Competition had just ended.

Some merchants and Soul Masters from various places still remain here.

Han Yu and his companions slowly walked out of the Star Emperor Hotel.

"I've been here for a month, it's finally over."

Long Aotian, who was walking behind, let out a breath of stale air with some relief.

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in unison.

The atmosphere of the competition was very oppressive, and even they couldn't help but feel a little irritated.

The game is finally over, and everyone has a smile on their face.

"Speaking of which, there are quite a few incredibly talented people in this competition."

"If it weren't for the young sect leader, we would have had to pay a considerable price to win the championship."

Long Aotian said with some lingering fear.

Having witnessed the disgusting nature of soul tools, he clearly no longer dared to underestimate them.

He was particularly impressed by the invincible shield; it was incredibly powerful.

No matter how powerful its attack is, that thing will unconditionally block you for three seconds.

I'll just ask you if you're angry or not, that's all.

Moreover, before closing the distance, they could only be beaten mercilessly.

They really have no temper at all.

Fortunately, it was only on the arena; if it were on the battlefield...

Long Aotian didn't know how much power they could unleash.

Han Yu smiled slightly:

"Brother Aotian, soul tools do have some advantages."

"Our sect's disciples may not need to learn it, but they must learn how to use it."

"So as not to fall into the trap of a Soul Master in the future."

"Besides, I quite like that invincible shield."

"If you have the chance, you should definitely get ten or eight of them and carry them with you. That way, you'll immediately feel safer."

Han Yu said something with a hint of sarcasm.

It's worth noting that Long Aotian was killed in the Battle of Tianhun Empire.

If only he could have configured several invincible shields at that time.

He wouldn't have died such a tragic death; I've given him a heads-up.

Whether he can understand or not depends on himself.
