The Abyss Exposed, the Shadow Legion's Might!

"Do it!"

As the leading duke of the Wang Clan gave the order, figures dressed in black robes, hidden among the audience, stood up in the already noisy Star Luo Stadium.

"The emperor must have been misled by Jiang Xiu. Now, I urge you all to join me in removing these corrupt officials from the court!"

It was unclear whether it was the man in black robes who shouted first, but the atmosphere inside the Star Luo Stadium instantly became even more tense. The already angry Star Luo Empire citizens were about to rush forward and attack Jiang Xiu.

"Where are the Imperial Guards?!"

Upon seeing this, Dai Tianling's expression instantly turned grim; this was practically pushing the Star Luo Empire into a fire pit.

"Your Majesty, you wish to defect to the Sun Moon Federation, but we do not. Only when the waters turn muddy will we have a chance to negotiate with the Sun and Sun Moon Federation!"

The Duke of the Wang Clan watched this scene with a sinister and cunning look in his eyes.

Their ambush wasn't just inside the Star Luo Stadium Star Luo Stadium; they also had 800 men waiting outside. Things are probably in chaos now...

"Senior Dai, let me handle this. After all, the Star Luo Empire has already submitted to the Sun Moon Federation."

Just as Dai Tianling was directing the palace guards forward, Jiang Xiu raised his hand to stop them.

"Jiang Xiu, what are you planning to do?" Dai Tianling, somewhat puzzled, since there were no Federation troops within the Star Luo Empire at the moment.

Jiang Xiu remained silent, only offering a slight smile.

As Jiang Xiu raised his hand with its distinct knuckles, a series of powerful figures stepped out of the shadows, their scarlet eyes fixed on those dressed in black robes.

"What... what is this? Who are they?"

Dai Tianling was taken aback when he saw this. He was not a tyrant. In his youth, he had been trained in the military camp. He could tell at a glance that these people were not ordinary Soul Master, but more like a disciplined army.

Just then, the Ant Emperor appeared, wielding Soul Guidance Thunder Electric Baton. He looked at the people dressed in black robes and roared:

"These are no longer ordinary people; we must strike hard!"

At this command, the Shadow Legion instantly mobilized, their Soul Guidance Thunder Electric Baton crackling with blue lightning.

Before the black-robed figures could react, the Shadow Legion members were already in front of them, their Soul Guidance Electric Baton swung down instantly.

"The first blow is to the leg to prevent escape, the second to the mouth to prevent begging for mercy, and the third to the head to prevent resistance!"

The Ant Emperor muttered to himself as he swung his Soul Guidance Electric Baton, leaving afterimages in its wake.

But six strikes per second wasn't his limit; he just wanted his the Master to see it clearly.

In a short time, the riots inside the Star Luo Stadium were suppressed at an extremely fast pace.

Outside the Star Luo Stadium, eight hundred Soul Master dressed in black robes were attacking the Star Luo Stadium.

Their goal was not to kill Jiang Xiu, nor Dai Tianling, but to incite public anger among the people of the Star Luo Empire, so as to negotiate terms with the Sun Moon Federation.

"Eight hundred it is, follow me!"

The leader shouted and prepared to lead his men into the Star Luo Stadium.

But just then, a tall figure slowly blocked their way.

"A bunch of inferior creatures, where do you think you're going?"

In an instant, a pair of scarlet dragon eyes lit up with excitement...

Inside Star Luo Stadium.

"Ahhh! Stop hitting me! Stop hitting me!"

"I am a citizen of the Star Luo Empire, please stop fighting!"

The once agitated Star Luo Empire people instantly sobered up after the black-robed man was dealt with and he was beaten a few times.

"Great, great, youth is wonderful, you can fall asleep as soon as your head hits the pillow."

The Ant Emperor looked at the black-robed figures who had been captured, and with a wave of his hand, he put them into the Monarch Domain, preparing to let them join the evolution of light.

"Jiang Xiu, tell these people to stop! The riot has been dealt with."

Seeing the continuous wails at the Star Luo Stadium, Dai Tianling quickly said.

"Senior Dai, it seems there are some ambitious people within your Star Luo Empire," Jiang Xiu said meaningfully, gazing at Dai Tianling.

Dai Tianling's face stiffened, his expression shifted several times, and he sighed, saying:

There are always some people who don't understand the situation and are unwilling to give up their current wealth and status.

"Then why not leave it to me to handle?" Jiang Xiu chuckled.

"Well... well, that's fine too." Dai Tianling paused for a moment, but finally agreed.

"Shadow Legion, withdraw!"

Looking at the now calm Star Luo Stadium, Jiang Xiu's lips curled into a smile. He then gave the order, Shadow Legion vanished instantly amidst the gazes of tens of thousands.

This unpredictable scene made everyone present tense again, and they dared not act rashly again.

"Gentlemen, the Star Luo Empire's return to the Federation is not a conspiracy, nor is it some form of coercion; it is simply the inevitable trend of the times."

Jiang Xiu a step forward, and his powerful Soul Power, mixed with his voice, instantly resounded throughout the entire Star Luo Stadium.

"Only by joining the Federation can the Star Luo Empire better develop and survive."

"Why... why is this?" a Soul Master asked, mustering his courage and puzzlement.

They dare not act recklessly now because Emperor Dai Tianling of the Star Luo Emperor is still alive, and Jiang Xiu has just won the Five Gods Duel.

However, without a real reason, many of them would be willing to go to war with the Sun and Moon Federation to protect the Star Luo Empire.

"Because we now share a common enemy: the Abyss Plane!"

Jiang Xiu spoke solemnly, enunciating each word clearly.

"The Abyss Plane? Wasn't that resolved more than six thousand years ago?"

"Could it be that the Abyss Plane has returned once again?"

"No way..."

Upon hearing this, many people from the Star Luo Empire began to discuss it.

Both the Federation and the Star Luo Empire recorded the great war against the Abyss Plane six thousand years ago as extremely tragic.

"A comeback?" Jiang Xiu shook his head upon hearing this, his gaze deep as he said:

"The Abyss Plane has never disappeared since the invasion began six thousand years ago!"

These words caused an uproar throughout the Star Luo Stadium.

"What! The Abyss Plane still exists!"

"Has someone brought the Abyss Plane back?"

Jiang Xiu ignored these discussions and continued:

"That's right, the Abyss Plane hasn't disappeared. From six thousand years ago to today, the Abyss Plane has been invading our Douluo Plane. Everyone is unaware of this simply because the Federation suppressed the news to avoid causing panic."

"But in these six thousand years, countless unsung soldiers have died guarding the Abyssal Passage. The peace and prosperity that everyone perceives is paved with the blood and lives of countless people."

"Now, the Federation has received the latest news that the Abyss Plane will launch a full-scale attack on the Douluo Plane, just as it did six thousand years ago. The Douluo Plane is now at a critical moment of life and death."

"This Five Gods Duel aims to peacefully connect the Star Luo Empire with the Sun Moon Federation."

Jiang Xiu's expression turned serious. He raised his Blood Eye and looked around the spectator stands, saying each word slowly and deliberately:

I would like to ask everyone here...

End the civil war and unite against a common enemy!
