Dai Tian glanced deeply at Qian Renxue and Bai Wanwan, then took a few steps forward. He first ordered the troops outside the city to retreat, and then took out paper and pen from his Storage Soul Tool to begin drafting the decree.

The first decree was to dissolve the engagement between the Third Prince the Star Luo Imperial Family and the Second Miss of the Nether Duke.

After writing the decree, Dai Tian didn't even look at it before tossing it towards Nether Duke.

The decree fell into the hands of the Nether Duke, without any hesitation, knelt on one knee before Dai Tian to express his gratitude.

Dai Tian had no intention of paying any attention to the Nether Duke's bow; he was currently very angry with the Nether Duke.

Although 80% of his anger stemmed from Bai Wanwan and Qian Renxue, given the current situation, even if he was extremely angry, he couldn't vent it on Bai Wanwan and Qian Renxue. Therefore, Nether Duke naturally became the target of his anger.

Moreover, Dai Tian remembered that when he gave the signal earlier, Nether Duke pretended not to see it.

Picking up his pen again, Dai Tian began writing the second imperial decree.

Qian Renxue and Bai Wanwan were conferred the title of Dukes of the Star Luo Empire, with Kangxin City as their Fief. Everything in Kangxin City belonged to the two dukes, and the royal family was not allowed to interfere.

After the decree was written and stamped with the exclusive seal of the Star Luo Imperial Family, Dai Tian picked it up. He seemed about to throw it over as before, but when he noticed the gaze of the Evil Emperor, Dai Tian silently took the decree to Qian Renxue and Bai Wanwan.

Bai Wanwan accepted the imperial decree and watched it together with Qian Renxue.

Upon seeing that there were no problems with the imperial decree, they all wore satisfied smiles.

"Your Majesty has nothing better to do; how about staying in the Nether City for a few more days?"

"The scenery in the Nether City is quite beautiful."

Bai Wanwan put away the imperial decree, stood up from her seat, and revealed a half-smile.

Dai Tian did not answer immediately, but his expression darkened further.

His gaze swept behind him, and he saw the Evil Emperor with his arms crossed, staring Youyou at him.

Meanwhile, Ling Yuan, on the other side, also crossed her arms and gazed at Dai Tian.

Under their watchful eyes, Dai Tian silently withdrew his gaze.

"Can."

"Why don't we let the Grand General enter the city as well, and then station the main army outside?"

Dai Tian spoke softly, but his gaze was fixed on Nether Duke was still kneeling on the ground.

As for Qian Renxue and Bai Wanwan, he was powerless to do anything about it, having to Dai Tian head under their roof.

But what could he possibly do against the Nether Duke?

Having been wronged, one naturally needs something to vent, and in Dai Tian's eyes, the Nether Duke was a perfect fit.

"These matters can be arranged by Your Majesty."

Bai Wanwan smiled, took Qian Renxue's arm, and walked with her down to the city wall.

The Evil Emperor, Ling Yuan, and the others followed behind them.

Watching the figures of the group gradually disappear into the distance, Dai Tian coldly glanced at Nether Duke was still kneeling on the ground.

What are you still kneeling for?

"Why haven't you arranged for the army outside the city to be resupplyed yet, and also let the Grand General enter the city?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Dai Tian flicked his sleeves and strode to catch up with Qian Renxue, Bai Wanwan, and the others.

Dai Tian was well aware of Qian Renxue and Bai Wanwan's motives for having him stay in Nether City temporarily; they simply didn't trust him. Therefore, Dai Tian wisely refrained from any underhanded tactics.

After Dai Tian had gone far away...

Nether Duke silently rose from the ground.

"Damn it!"

"You've been caught, what can I do?"

"If you're so tough, take it out on me. Why don't you take it out on those two?"

Nether Duke thought to himself silently, but did not show it on his face.

The reason is simple: they just don't dare.

After brushing the dust off his clothes, Nether Duke strode forward, preparing to carry out Dai Tian's instructions.

"Hmm~"

"Zhuqing seems to have a good relationship with the two Your Highness. Zhuyun's situation is stable, but we can't completely let go of Zhuqing's side. Perhaps we could try to ease the tension with Zhuqing."

"In case anything changes in the future, we can also get in touch with the two Your Highness through Zhuqing."

Nether Duke walked forward, lost in thought.

On the other side.

The Nether City.

On the bustling street, Qian Renxue and Bai Wanwan each held a drink, savoring it while glancing at the stalls on both sides.

Whenever their gazes lingered on an item for more than three seconds, Dai Tian would wave his hand without hesitation, ordering someone to wrap the item up, and then say, "Put it on Nether Duke's tab."

Hmm~

Since it wasn't his own money, Dai Tian was exceptionally generous.

When they arrived at the Duke's Mansion, apart from Qian Renxue, Bai Wanwan, and Dai Tian, Evil Emperor, Ling Yuan, and the others were already carrying large and small bags full of things.

We have just entered the Duke's Mansion.

Then Zhu Zhuqing's somewhat aloof voice reached their ears.

"Wanwan, about this..."

Zhu Zhuqing's words came to an abrupt end.

He stared blankly at Dai Tian, who had entered the Duke's Mansion with Bai Wanwan and the others.

"Star... Star Luo Emperor..."

Looking at Dai Tian ahead, Zhu Zhuqing's gaze seemed somewhat vacant.

"It's solved!"

"We reasoned with His Your Majesty for a long time, appealing to his emotions and logic, before Your Majesty agreed."

Bai Wanwan winked playfully at Zhu Zhuqing.

Qian Renxue reached out and tapped Bai Wanwan on the head, but didn't say anything.

"Really... really?"

Zhu Zhuqing looked at Bai Wanwan with some disbelief.

Although she never doubted that Bai Wanwan could handle her own affairs, Zhu Zhuqing was still somewhat skeptical of any attempts to persuade her with reason and emotion.

After all, Yang Wushuang was present when she came to report, so she naturally knew that Dai Tian was leading an army of 100,000.

Just looking at the fact that Dai Tian brought an army of 100,000, Zhu Zhuqing didn't think this was something that could be resolved through persuasion.

A ruler's word is his bond.

Dai Tian glanced at Zhu Zhuqing and silently uttered four words.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing was stunned for a moment, then reached out and hugged Bai Wanwan.

Thank you~

"Wanwan, thank you~"

Zhu Zhuqing hugged Bai Wanwan and whispered in her ear.

"Cough~ cough~"

"No need for that, Zhuqing."

Bai Wanwan coughed lightly and gently pushed Zhu Zhuqing away with a serious expression.

Standing next to Bai Wanwan, Qian Renxue rolled her eyes imperceptibly.

Hmm~

She suddenly remembered what she had said to Bai Wanwan when she was young.

If Bai Wanwan were a boy, he would definitely be skilled at charming girls.

In the Heaven Dou Empire, there is a Xue Ke.

Now Zhu Zhuqing has come along. If we strike while the iron is hot, it might just be a success.

"Zhuqing, watch your image."

His Your Majesty is still here.

Qian Renxue took a step forward without making a sound, standing between Zhu Zhuqing and Bai Wanwan.
