Several streaks of light flew towards the imperial palace.

The road was filled with cries of despair; most of the western district of Ming Capital had been looted by the Holy Spirit Cult army.

" The War God Temple and the Federal Council, almost all of them perished in the West Mountain Range?!"

Leng Yaozhu covered her mouth and gasped in surprise.

Yun Ming's gaze darkened as he said, " The War God Temple has two Quasi-God, Chen Xinjie and Guan Yue. If they both die in Ming Capital West Mountain, then their souls will be Holy Spirit Cult..."

Long Zijin interjected, " Chen Xinjie is not dead; he's currently near Sea God Lake."

Yun Ming didn't doubt it, but calculated, "Of the eighteen War Gods, only Begonia Douluo should be left now, because he came to see you on your blind date last night, so he escaped the disaster."

" Of the Sun Moon Imperial Family, only Xu Hutong, whom you resurrected, remains. Apart from the White Tiger Douluo who was killed in the explosion, all the other members were devoured by the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King."

Long Zijin, his eyes deep and thoughtful, said, "You've really gone to great lengths."

" The Soul Fighting Beast's fortune is hidden in the Three-Eyed White Tiger's Spirit Eyes and will only be passed on to its blood relatives."

"But if we kill the White Tiger Douluo and eradicate all those with the Three-Eyed White Tiger bloodline, then this share of fortune..."

"Then we will return to the Star Dou Forest," Di Guangming continued.

Yun Ming asked, "But what if we were intercepted on the way back, or what if this fortune was originally inside the womb of a woman or a female beast?"

Di Guangming answered directly, "If this woman consumes enough princes of the White Tiger Lineage within a certain period of time, enough to grant her a trace of the Three-Eyed White Tiger bloodline, then this fortune will belong entirely to that woman, transforming from forest fortune to ocean fortune."

" The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King will also take this opportunity to become Auspicious Beast."

Although there is a world of difference between Auspicious Beast and Three-Eyed Golden Lion, the imperial fortune is mainly embodied in Huo Yuhao.

However, this body was passed down to Xu Yunhan.

If the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King could obtain a portion of the Emperor's Luck, it would be enough to increase her chances of becoming a god.

Yun Ming said with lingering fear, "Fortunately, you saved the Crown Prince of Sun Moon and Moon this morning, otherwise the fortune of the eldest son of Spirit Ice Douluo would have all gone to the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King."

An unintentional act led to a major plot by the Holy Spirit Cult.

Leng Yaozhu pondered, "That means Xu Hutong, as the only prince of the royal family, will successfully inherit the fortune of the White Tiger Douluo and become the one with the greatest fortune."

"If he is swallowed by the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King again, then the fortunes of the Sun Moon and Moon Prince and the Sun Moon Monarch will merge into one and completely belong to the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King."

With that explained, the logic becomes clear: The Holy Spirit Cult will try every possible means to abduct Xu Hutong and feed her to the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, while they will do the opposite and protect Xu Hutong at all costs!

Tang Wulin couldn't help but complain: So I have to protect my love rival now?

"By the way, what about the Sun Lineage?" Long Zijin suddenly asked.

Yun Ming thought for a moment and replied, "When Kong Yunhua and Yu Guanzhi led us to clean up the palace, we did not sense the aura of Sun Soul Master."

Little Mountain, who had been silent and pondering his father's divine skills, suddenly spoke up, "Have the secret chambers and underground passages of the palace been searched?"

Yun Ming shook his head and said, "No, because I received news of the theft of the Eternal Heaven, I quickly accompanied Lily to send the refugees out of the city."

"Moreover, the palace has a strict structure with numerous mental energy isolation arrays, making it impossible for us to probe the details of the underground buildings."

"No wonder." Little Mountain hesitated, then stopped himself from speaking.

Finally, he leaned down and whispered a few words in dragon language into Long Zijin's ear.

"Is that so?" Long Zijin suddenly realized.

Ahead lies the imperial palace, the heart of Ming Capital.

The style remains the linear beauty of the mechanical age. Ever since Xu Tianran used all the palaces as an array to kill two Limit Evil Douluo, the style of the Sun Moon Imperial Palace has remained in that era and continues to this day.

A gap was pushed into the west wall of the palace, but there was no sign of spatial rupture in the sky, proving that the level eleven Soul Tool Shield protecting the palace had never been activated.

It's still a case of internal malfunction and external intrusion, a coordinated attack from within and without.

Following the direction indicated by the Little Mountain, Long Zijin descended towards the Sun Moon Hall, where the emperor used to hold court.

The stench of blood was overwhelming; crimson human figures were imprinted all over the palace walls, yet no corpses remained...

On the ground, you could even see strands of hair stuck to the scalps of the palace maids after they were dragged by their hair.

The main hall doors were open; even without using spiritual power, a simple glance inside was enough to see—

At the highest and deepest part of the main hall, two purple and gold curtains hung down.

A middle-aged man dressed in magnificent robes, with graying temples, sat upright on the imperial throne.

"A level 93 Titled Douluo?"

Yun Ming and Leng Yaozhu frowned simultaneously, because when they came to search, they clearly found no survivors.

Some hidden hideouts, such as basements, were precisely located and breached by the Holy Spirit Cult, where members of the royal family and nobility who had been hiding there met a tragic end.

Unless this person is a member of the Holy Spirit Cult left behind.

This is the first point of doubt.

The second point of doubt is:

How long has it been since the Sun Moon Hall, which should have been in complete disarray and in ruins, was transformed?

The carved beams and painted rafters have been completely transformed!

This is something that one person cannot accomplish in a short period of time unless a large group of people come in to clean up and then evacuate in time before Yun Ming and the others arrive.

As for the third point of doubt...

"The head of the Sun Lineage?"

Leng Yaozhu, who worked at the Spirit Pagoda, immediately recognized this colleague.

"That's not right." Yun Ming frowned even more deeply.

"Under the suppression of the White Tiger Lineage, it is absolutely impossible for the Sun Lineage to produce Titled Douluo, except for that woman from the Dragon Clan who supported the Sun Lineage a few years ago."

"So, who are you?"

Faced with the stern rebuke, the middle-aged man remained calm. Instead, upon seeing Long Zijin enter the main hall, he quickly rose from his throne and bowed respectfully.

"Sigh..." Long Zijin waved his finger, indicating, "You may all step back. Let me speak to him."

"But..." Leng Yaozhu hesitated, but seeing the respectful attitude of the man in fine clothes towards Long Zijin, she followed Yun Ming and silently withdrew from the entrance of the main hall.

"I want to stay," Tang Wulin suddenly said, his eyes filled with determination.

"Very well." Long Zijin sighed softly, "There are some people and some things you really should see clearly."

"Waaah--"

"Bang!"

The main hall doors were closed, and two rows of ever-burning lamps illuminated the Sun and Sun Moon Hall with Youyou atmosphere.

The middle-aged man in the magnificent robes straightened up from his bow, parted the beaded veil covering his face, and said in a slightly trembling voice, " Divine Ancestor, young friend Tang."

Tang Wulin exclaimed in surprise, "Uncle Xu?!"

Isn't this Uncle Xu who has fed him for ten years?

"Are you the emperor?"

"Wait a minute! "Tang Wulin exclaimed. "Didn't His Majesty the White Tiger Douluo just pass away this morning?"

"Yes and no, hahaha." Councilor Xu gave a wry smile, tinged with self-deprecation.

Long Zijin interrupted abruptly, "Is it true or not!"

Councilor Xu immediately straightened his hat and said solemnly, "Yes!"

"The 'Sun' in 'Sun Moon ' represents my Sun Family!"

"The 'Huang' in 'Royal Family' is the 'Huang' in 'Royal Dragon Soul Engineer ' and the 'Huang' in 'Purple Brilliant Heaven Destroying Dragon '!"
