"Yes, everyone was surprised by this. No one would have thought that after so many years of fighting on the battlefield, the Duke would end up capsizing in a ditch."
Lord Zhang shook his head and sighed, "The Duke died at the hands of his closest relatives."
"A close relative?" The Duchess and Dai Yueheng both had question marks on their foreheads.
"Sir, besides us, does the Duke have any other close relatives?"
Dai Yueheng couldn't help but ask.
"Yes..." Master Zhang hesitated for a moment and said, "It's Huo Yuhao."
"According to the news from the military camp, we know that Huo Yuhao requested to see the Duke alone, and the Duke finally agreed to see him.
No one expected that Huo Yuhao would launch an attack, nor did anyone expect that Huo Yuhao would launch an attack that would threaten the Duke.
That’s how the disaster happened.”
“Huo Yuhao! It’s actually that bastard Huo Yuhao!”
The Duchess's expression became ferocious.
At this moment, she seemed like a devil.
"Yes, it's Huo Yuhao. His performance is truly surprising." Lord Zhang shook his head and said, "Dame Duchess, these behind me are His Majesty's rewards to you. Please don't be too sad."
"I don't want these rewards, I just want that bastard dead!" The Duchess asked with gritted teeth, "Then, Your Majesty, when will you avenge my husband?"
"Your Majesty has not yet found a suitable person to lead the border troops. Duchess, don't worry. When His Majesty makes a decision, he will inform you."
After Mr. Zhang finished speaking, he turned around and left.
The Duchess and Dai Yueheng stood there in silence for a long time.
"Mother, the wind is blowing. Let's go back first."
Dai Yueheng tried hard to keep him calm.
"Wow, wow..." The Duchess burst into tears.
She could no longer be strong, "Yue Heng, you kill him. You must kill him!"
At this moment, she didn't know who else to rely on except Dai Yueheng.
Dai Yueheng clenched his fists, "Mother... Don't worry, I will make Huo Yuhao pay the price."
...
the other side.
The Sun-Moon Empire Royal Soul Instructor Academy.
In the laboratory.
Qin Xiao was constantly busy.
In front of him was the badly damaged humanoid soul guide.
"I didn't expect it to be so severely damaged. At least one-third of the magic circle was damaged. It's really a huge project."
He complained to himself.
of course.
I'm not saying this to myself.
On the side, Xuan Ziwen stood up helplessly.
Coming to Qin Xiao's side, he said, "I say, you guys should stop being so ungrateful. You killed so many powerful people at once with this humanoid soul guide. In the end, you even killed the Duke of White Tiger. With such a brilliant record, you only suffered one-third of the damage. You made a fortune, okay?"
He felt that Qin Xiao was being Versailles.
He's being sarcastic on purpose.
Qin Xiao was very surprised when he heard this. "Is that so? But if you put it that way, I think it makes sense.
So, I've made a lot of money?"
Xuan Ziwen snorted unhappily, "Just be happy in secret. If I could create such a powerful soul guide, I would wake up laughing even in my dreams."
Because, that means he will become a ninth-level soul mentor.
"Hahaha, brother, don't underestimate yourself. You are just a little bit away from becoming a ninth-level soul mentor."
Qin Xiao laughed and comforted Xuan Ziwen.
"Okay, stop laughing. Tell me what you want me for?"
Xuan Ziwen asked again.
He knew that Qin Xiao definitely didn't ask him to come just to appreciate the humanoid soul guide.
"It's like this." Qin Xiao rubbed his hands and said, "I think it's necessary to upgrade this humanoid soul guide. As you saw before, most of the magic arrays on it are low-level.
The only core array is the ninth-level core refined for me by Dean Hongchen. In addition, there is also an eighth-level core that you refined for me.
However, whether it is a level 8 or 9 soul guide, it puts a heavy load on the humanoid soul guide. If some low-level magic arrays are replaced with level 7 or 8 magic arrays, the output capacity of the humanoid soul guide can be greatly increased.
By then, even without relying on various soul guides, he will be able to unleash powerful combat power."
Xuan Ziwen frowned, "Good fellow, you have quite a bit of ambition."
"If you really succeed, it means you actually possess a Titled Douluo-level clone. Rather than relying on various soul cannon output to reach this level..."
"Hehe, that's right." Qin Xiao nodded with a smile.
Xuan Ziwen is worthy of being Xuan Ziwen, and he knew what he was thinking in an instant.
He wanted to engrave various magic arrays on the humanoid soul guide.
Speed, strength, or attack and defense, etc...
By that time, the combat effectiveness of the humanoid soul guide will increase dramatically.
"What you said is very difficult." Xuan Ziwen said: "The materials for making an eighth-level soul guide are not much even I have."
"If it weren't difficult, I wouldn't have asked you." Qin Xiao said, "In the entire academy, I believe you're the only one who can do it. As for the materials, I don't think it's a problem. I'll go ask Dean Hongchen for them now.
After all, I've done such a great thing, beheading the Star Luo Empire's commander-in-chief, the Duke, who is second only to the emperor. You should at least give me some reward, right?"
"Is it okay for me to ask for some materials?"
Xuan Ziwen nodded. "Not excessive. Not excessive at all. I think it would be unreasonable for the Empire to not give you three hundred million, five hundred million, seven hundred million, or eight hundred million."
He was not agreeing with Qin Xiao, nor was he mocking him, nor was he exaggerating.
But the White Tiger Duke of the Xingluo Empire is worth this price.
"Brother, I'm sorry to bother you here. I'm going to ask Dean Hongchen for money now."
Qin Xiao counted on his fingers as he walked, "Three hundred million plus five hundred million plus seven hundred million plus eight hundred million... Hmm, a total of two billion three hundred million."
"???"
Xuan Ziwen immediately stopped Qin Xiao and said, "Wait a minute, how much do you want?"
"Twenty-three billion, as you requested."
Qin Xiao said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will definitely convey your request clearly."
"I'm not, I didn't, please don't try to trick me." Xuan Ziwen waved his hands repeatedly.
Qin Xiao is such a dishonest guy.
Even myself was cheated.
however.
Qin Xiao didn't take his words to heart at all.
...
dong dong dong.
There was a knock on the office door. Jing Hongchen was stunned for a moment, then frowned.
"Who?"
"It's me. Dean Hongchen, I have something I want to discuss with you."
Qin Xiao?
Why are you so polite today?
Jing Hongchen frowned slightly.
If someone shows you kindness without any reason, he is either a traitor or a thief.
He was certain that Qin Xiao was looking for him for no good reason.
He yelled, "I'm not here, come back later."
Outside.
Qin Xiao: "..."
Chapter 470 Kong Deming was stunned
duang!
Qin Xiao kicked the office door open.
He couldn't stand such a perfunctory excuse.
"You, how can you be so angry?"
Jing Hongchen was startled.
"I have something urgent to talk to you about."
"what's up?"
"I need money and materials to make an eighth-level soul guide..." Qin Xiao thought for a moment and added, "A lot."
Jing Hongchen: "..."
He snorted in annoyance, "You really just say what you want. Do you think money and materials will just blow in the wind?"
Qin Xiao shook his head, "That's not the case. I just think that I have made great contributions to the Sun Moon Empire by killing the White Tiger Duke. Shouldn't I be rewarded?
Besides, he is my blood relative, not only should I be rewarded, but he should be given double the reward."
Jing Hongchen: "Then how much do you want..."
Qin Xiao said, "Twenty-three billion... Well, if you round it up to three billion, it won't be a problem."
"..." Jing Hongchen was silent, "Do you really think that money comes from the wind?"
"He's asking for 20 to 30 billion..."
...
"Dong dong dong."
There was a knock on the laboratory door, and Xuan Ziwen couldn't help but frown.
No one likes to be interrupted when they are concentrating on doing something.
So is Xuan Ziwen.
He hated being interrupted when he was concentrating on studying soul guides the most.
However, he still put down what he was doing and came to the door.
When he opened the door, the impatient look on his face froze instantly.
Outside the door was a serious old man.
"Teacher, why is it you?"
The unhappiness on his face was quickly replaced by a smile.
That's right.
The person outside the door was none other than Kong Deming, the most powerful soul mentor of the Sun-Moon Empire.
"Why can't it be me?"
