Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 342: The entire continent was slaughtered (8K)

The big boss?

Everyone's expressions were strange.

Isn't that the Star Luo Emperor?

So, they messed up and felt embarrassed, so they came to Yuhao to cover it up?

Huo Yuhao turned his gaze to Wang Yan.

After exchanging glances for a moment, Wang Yan said, "In that case, we won't wait for you. We still need to prepare for tomorrow's match. Go back to the hotel as soon as you're done."

After saying that, Shrek and his group turned and left through the secret passage, while Huo Yuhao remained seated steadily.

He had only been sitting for a short while when the door opened, and the first person to walk in was Princess Xu Jiujiu, who had changed into a golden palace dress.

The young man following behind her was none other than the Star Luo Emperor – Xu Jiawei.

Upon seeing the two appear, Qingya immediately knelt down on one knee to pay her respects, and the two maids knelt down on both knees as well.

Xu Jiawei waved his hand slightly, and the three of them immediately stood up, quickly left the room, and closed the door behind them.

Behind Xu Jiawei stood an old man with sparse hair and a malicious look on his face; this was none other than Du Busi.

The old man, who had been hiding in the shadows, immediately appeared, staring at Du Busi, fearing that the other party would try to take him away again.

"Hello."

Huo Yuhao stood up, nodded to Xu Jiawei, and then sat down again on his own.

It's highly unlikely that he would perform any grand ceremony for the Star Luo Emperor; simply behaving properly would be sufficient.

Two monarchs have died at Huo Yuhao's hands, so it's indeed difficult for Huo Yuhao to have any sense of awe or respect for the monarchs of his country.

Xu Jiawei was slightly taken aback.

He hadn't met someone so calm and collected on their first meeting in a long time, especially since the other person was just over twelve years old.

Under the long and shocked gazes, Xu Jiawei smiled slightly, and without putting on any emperor-like airs, he sat down on the sofa next to Huo Yuhao.

Elder Xuan and Du Busi silently pushed open the door and left, no one knows what they were talking about.

Xu Jiawei stared at the calm-faced young man before him and chuckled, "You don't seem surprised at all by my arrival? You know I'm the big boss here? Was the feeling of being spied on that Senior Poison-Slaying came from you?"

Huo Yuhao nodded: "More or less, but the fact that you are the current emperor wasn't something I deduced through my observation. Besides the royal family, who else could use, and who would dare to use, a princess of the current dynasty as an auctioneer?"

Xu Jiawei nodded first, then shook his head with a smile.

Although this little guy kept calling Huo Yuhao "Your Majesty," his words and actions showed no respect for the emperor. If Du Busi hadn't noticed that Huo Yuhao was looking around, this kid probably would have dared to openly spy on him, the Star Luo Emperor.

However, how did this kid see our side? Box number seven is so far away from box number one, and there are several layers of walls mixed with pure purple gold in between.

interesting.

"So, what exactly do you want to see me about?"

Huo Yuhao sat up slightly from the sofa.

Xu Jiawei said, "I came to meet you, this prodigy, and also to thank you for your reminder about the Ice Jade Scorpion's left arm bone, which prevented the Starlight Auction House from suffering a loss of reputation. I just took the opportunity to verify it, and it is indeed as you said, that only the finest ice can melt it."

With such a casual remark, at least one life was lost.

Just in those two hours.

It's unclear who Xu Jiawei had experiment with on this soul bone.

No matter how approachable he may appear on the surface, his identity is still that of a monarch, and his hands are stained with countless lives.

Huo Yuhao raised an eyebrow: "I thought you really intended to use this soul bone to instigate a war with the Sun Moon Empire."

Upon hearing this, Xu Jiawei could only shake his head.

"After six thousand years of development, the Sun and Moon Empire's strength is not only not narrowing compared to four thousand years ago, but has become even greater. Even if the siblings' talents are so formidable that they inspire fear, we cannot take action against them."

Xu Jiawei's tone contained no reluctance, only regret. For Xu Jiawei, it was nothing to let such a girl suffer the filth of politics.

"Jiujiu, you should go out first."

"Yes, elder brother."

After a long pause, he looked intently at Huo Yuhao before turning and leaving the private room.

This man had already left a deep impression on her for the third time. He spoke eloquently in front of a level nine soul master, shone brightly in the continent-wide advanced soul master competition, and remained neither arrogant nor humble in front of the emperor of the Star Luo Empire, treating everyone with composure.

After the door to the private room closed again, Xu Jiawei flipped his wrist, and a beautifully packaged soul tool container appeared on the table.

A chill emanated from the container, condensing into a thin layer of white frost.

Above the soul guide container, there was a beautifully crafted red card carved from an unknown gemstone, with gold trim around the edges and a starlight pattern inlaid on the front.

"This is the left arm bone of the Ice Jade Scorpion. After you reminded me, I kept it."

Xu Jiawei pushed the soul guide container to the side.

"It is better to give a fine sword to a hero than to leave it gathering dust in a storeroom; it is a good thing to do so."

Huo Yuhao was not in a hurry to accept the soul bone. Free things are always the most expensive. Shrek Academy treated him so well because Huo Yuhao had very simple interpersonal relationships, excellent talent, and was suitable to be cultivated as the next successor of the Sea God Pavilion.

But what did Xu Jiawei want to get from him by giving him a top-tier soul bone worth at least 15 million?

"His Majesty?"

Huo Yuhao looked at Xu Jiawei slowly and deliberately.

Seeing Huo Yuhao's completely uninterested expression regarding the soul bone, Xu Jiawei felt somewhat helpless.

As expected of the most outstanding student in this year's Shrek Academy reserve team, his vision and composure are something that cannot be lost with just a ten-thousand-year-old soul bone.

Xu Jiawei chuckled and said, "I heard from Elder Xuan that you registered your birthplace as the Star Luo Empire at Shrek Academy. You're practically one of my subjects, so why let the good stuff go to outsiders?"

Huo Yuhao thought to himself that whether someone is a subject or not has no binding force on him. Ethically speaking, he is still a subject of Ashina Isshin and Ashina Genichiro. Look at how he didn't hold back when he swung his sword at those two people.

However, Huo Yuhao also understood Xu Jiawei's unspoken meaning. He only intended to invest in advance so that Xu would owe him a favor and be able to help Xingluo in the future.

However, Huo Yuhao did indeed want to befriend the Star Luo Empire so that he could have the opportunity to visit their imperial library in the future. He lacked information about the Sea God. After all, the Star Luo Empire was a great empire with a history of tens of thousands of years, and perhaps they really had some records of the Sea God's abilities.

We must strive to gain every possible force; our enemy is too powerful, so powerful that it is almost impossible to imagine any countermeasures.

Unless Huo Yuhao can harden his heart and slaughter the entire continent, and then use the cries of the entire continent's lives to forge the divine status of the God of the Dead for himself, these powers must be something Huo Yuhao has to strive for.
