Douluo Continent: My life is ruined, but I become stronger by taking on disciples.

Chapter 153 War!

However, Dai Yutian's decision to send his own titled Douluo to intercept the titled Douluo of the Heavenly Dragon Empire became his biggest blunder.

Because the Star Luo Empire has a vast territory, news of the battle reports from several days ago is only now emerging.

Just as Dai Yutian was eagerly waiting, a blood-soaked and disheveled flying soul master scout stumbled into the palace.

Finally, he collapsed to the ground with a thud, his voice trembling.

"Your Majesty! Something terrible has happened! The people of the Heavenly Dragon Empire have broken through our western defense line and are only eighty miles from the capital! Several titled Douluo generals have been killed in battle, and we have suffered a crushing defeat!"

Upon hearing this, Dai Yutian swayed violently and almost fell over.

Zhu Yali, who was standing nearby, reacted quickly and stepped forward to help him up.

However, upon hearing this news, her face turned deathly pale.

"How is this possible! The defenders of the western line are all elite troops, with eight Title Douluos in command. How could they be so easily defeated?"

Dai Yutian roared, his voice filled with disbelief and rage.

The scout replied tremblingly, "Your Majesty, we have all been deceived by the Heavenly Dragon Empire. Their Title Douluos have not divided their forces at all; they have remained together."

We saw the figures of Title Douluos from the Heavenly Dragon Empire elsewhere, but that was only the soul skill of one of their Title Douluos.

Dai Yutian's vision went black, and he collapsed onto the dragon throne.

The reason he dared to send someone to intercept him was because he was confident in his own strength as a Title Douluo and his understanding of the Star Luo Empire.

Now he's being told that they didn't split up at all; they were just trying to catch him off guard.

Including the previous counterattack, the Star Luo Empire has lost more than a third of its thirty-odd Title Douluos.

Zhu Yali frowned and said anxiously, "Your Majesty, now is not the time to be distressed. They are about to besiege the city. Quickly bring back the generals who have been sent out to intercept them."

Dai Yutian understood the urgency of the situation, gritted his teeth, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

"Pass on my order: recall all available troops from the area surrounding the capital and defend it to the death! Also, contact the generals who are lying in ambush and have them return to the capital immediately!"

The scout struggled to his feet, accepted the order, and hurriedly left.

Dai Yutian turned to look at Zhu Yali, his eyes filled with weariness and worry: "Empress, if the Star Luo Empire is destroyed this time, how can I face our ancestors?"

Zhu Yali held Dai Yutian's hand tightly, her tone firm.

"Your Majesty, our Star Luo Empire is stronger than ever before. All our setbacks were simply due to being caught off guard by the Heavenly Dragon Empire."

"If the two armies were to engage in direct combat, our Star Luo Empire might not necessarily lose!"

Dai Yutian nodded emphatically. Although they had lost a third of their Title Douluos, they still had a dozen or twenty left.

As long as they stay put and unite, even if all the people from the Heavenly Dragon Empire arrive, it will take a lot of effort to defeat them.

At this moment, more than twenty towers stood in the air above the vast plains sixty miles from the capital of the Star Luo Empire.

At the very front of the group was a graceful figure in black; that person was none other than Zhu Zhuqing.

The twenty-odd figures behind her were titled Douluo dispatched by the Heavenly Dragon Empire.

Zhu Zhuqing looked at this familiar place and said coldly, "The imperial city of the Star Luo Empire is just ahead!"

She felt no sense of belonging to the Star Luo Empire, only hatred.

The twenty-odd figures remained silent, for they were all assassins, powerful assassins.

At this moment, on the plains where the imperial city was located, soldiers of the Star Luo Empire surged out like a tide, a vast, dark mass, numbering as many as a million.

Although the number of soldiers from the Star Luo Empire was enormous, at this moment every soldier had wide eyes, a pale face, and their throats were involuntarily bobbing.

Clearly, they are afraid.

After all, they were just ordinary people. How could they not be afraid when facing a powerful and infamous Title Douluo?

However, they dared not desert because of the several titled Douluo from the Star Luo Empire behind them.

Because they knew perfectly well that if they chose to desert, they would be executed immediately, and their families would also be implicated.

So they had no choice but to stand here, even though it wouldn't do them any good.

However, at this moment, the titled Douluo of the Star Luo Empire looked solemn.

They knew of their previous crushing defeat, but their eyes still burned with an unwavering fighting spirit.

Among them, a titled Douluo with tiger-like eyes and sword-like eyebrows, and three old scars across his face, stepped forward to speak.

This person is one of the titled Douluo of the Star Luo Empire, named Fu Yunshi.

A level 93 Douluo of the Power Attack type, with the Martial Soul Cloud Lion.

"Soldiers! Today, we are not only protecting the imperial city, but also the dignity and glory of the entire Star Luo Empire! For our homeland, for our loved ones, fight!"

Fu Yunshi raised his arms and shouted, his voice powerful and resounding through the sky.

"War! War! War!"

The soldiers of the Star Luo Empire roared in unison, their voices rising like a tidal wave, soaring into the sky.

A cold glint was hidden in Fu Yunshi's eyes. He had just activated his soul power to dispel the fear in the hearts of those mortal soldiers.

"That's right, exactly. Your mission is to die, to hinder the advance of the Heavenly Dragon Empire's Title Douluos with your fearless spirit!"

At this moment, the excited Star Luo Empire soldiers were unaware that they had already been regarded as expendable pawns.

Seeing this, the titled Douluo of the Heavenly Dragon Empire scoffed disdainfully, "A stubborn resistance, utterly overestimating your own strength!"

Before the words were finished, several figures shot out like black lightning, appearing in the sky above the Star Luo Empire's army in an instant.

Some of them wielded curved swords, others used daggers; in short, they possessed a wide variety of strange and unusual weapons.

They don't make a move unless they're absolutely sure of it, but when they do, it's astonishing!

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

As these Title Douluos attacked, multicolored slashes tore through the sky, illuminating it with dazzling brilliance.

In an instant, violent explosions echoed throughout the Star Luo Empire's army.

The once orderly formation was torn open with huge gaps, and many soldiers were blown to pieces during the attack.

The soldiers of the Star Luo Empire did not back down; they quickly sprang into action to fill the gaps in the defenses.

However, these mortal soldiers did not give up, while the titled Douluo of the Star Luo Empire stood by and watched.

Fu Yunshi, in particular, seemed to ignore the tragic deaths of the ordinary soldiers of the Star Luo Empire.

Moreover, they retreated behind the main army and quietly watched everything unfold.

When they did this, the Titled Douluo of the Tianlong Empire, who was also an assassin, had already sensed something was amiss and immediately started communicating.

"Those bastards from the Star Luo Empire are really decisive. In order to delay us, they are willing to send a million mortal soldiers to their deaths."

"Hmph, so what? A mere million? Slaughtering them is as easy as killing chickens!"

"That's right. Since they're all so eager to die, we assassins won't show any mercy!"

After the exchange, the titled Douluo of the Tianlong Empire launched an even more ferocious attack, and hundreds or even thousands of mortal soldiers died in an instant.

Looking at the speed at which the mortal soldiers were dying, Fu Yunshi cursed under his breath, "What a bunch of trash!"

"Moo!"

Just as he was wondering what to do, a loud horn sounded in the distance, immediately attracting everyone's attention.

Suddenly, terrifying figures appeared on the horizon, and they attacked the titled Douluo of the Heavenly Dragon Empire without hesitation.

It turned out to be the combined forces of Seagod Island and the Spirit Hall, who had arrived.

Rather than saying they arrived, it's more accurate to say they finally decided to show themselves.

They originally wanted the Star Luo Empire and the Heavenly Dragon Empire to fight to the death, so they could reap the benefits in the end.

However, the Star Luo Empire's indifference disrupted their plans.

After weighing the pros and cons, they chose to reveal themselves and form an alliance with the Star Luo Empire while it still had the strength to do so.

"Brothers of the Star Luo Empire, do not despair! My Seagod Island is here to lend you a hand!"

"The Spirit Hall is the same!"

Before the Title Douluos from the Spirit Hall and Seagod Island could finish speaking, they attacked the Title Douluo from the Heavenly Dragon Empire.

Their target was very clear: the weakest figure in the sky, Zhu Zhuqing.

In an instant, the few remaining Title Douluos around Zhu Zhuqing were also restricted.

That's why Dai Mubai found an opportunity to rush towards Zhu Zhuqing.

A glint of madness and excitement flashed in his eyes as he roared, "You slut, prepare to die! Today is your death day!"
