Country!

"Unite against external threats!"

As Jiang Xiu solemnly finished speaking, the entire Star Luo Stadium fell silent instantly, and the Star Luo Empire citizens who had been puzzled and excited also fell silent.

It turns out that the Abyss Plane from back then was not dispelled or destroyed, but has been secretly invading their plane, always trying to destroy the place they depend on for survival!

Jiang Xiu looked up at the scene, his tone softening slightly.

"To be honest, my parents were also soldiers fighting against the Blood God Legion of the Abyss Plane. They sacrificed themselves to Guardian the Douluo Plane when I was very young."

Of all my expectations, all that came back were two badges.

I am honored to have such parents, and I will once again shoulder this responsibility and dedicate myself to the Abyss Plane.

The tens of thousands of spectators in the Star Luo Stadium fell silent upon hearing these words, and their gazes toward Jiang Xiu took on a different hue.

On dozens of Federation warships far out at sea in the Star Luo Empire, Dong Zi'an watched the events unfolding in the Star Luo Stadium. Even this iron-blooded Federation general sighed.

He knew clearly what had happened back then; if it weren't for Jiang Xiu's Martial Soul, Jiang Xiu would probably have died in the Abyssal Tide.

"But where is Xiao Xiu's shadow?"

Seeing that Jiang Xiu's tall and straight body was still completely bare, Dong Zi'an couldn't help but frown.

He knew that Jiang Xiu had acquired quite a few rare and precious treasures over the years, and he had tried many methods, but Jiang Xiu's presence seemed to have vanished from this world entirely...

Inside the Star Luo Stadium, Dai Yun'er listened to Jiang Xiu's words, her beautiful blue eyes suddenly trembling.

"So that's what his background was..."

She had also investigated Jiang Xiu's information, but it all came down to him joining the Body Sect after the age of six, with no information available about him before that.

"Xiao Xiu, your future aunt will treat you well..."

In the shadows, a hint of heartache flickered in Leng Yaozhu, phoenix-shaped eyes. Jiang Xiu had lost his parents at such a young age, and both of them were soldiers in the Blood God Legion. He probably hadn't even experienced maternal love...

"We need to give Jiang Xiu more resources from now on. How can my man be treated like this!" Gu Yue pursed her red lips.

"Gentlemen, I am not an isolated case. The Abyss Plane is now preparing for a full-scale attack on the Douluo Plane. We can no longer sit idly by and wait for our demise. The most important principle of a civilization is survival. If we cannot even survive, how can we talk about a contest between nations?"

Jiang Xiu's solemn voice rang in the ears of every audience member, so earnest and dignified.

"Shadow Lord is right. Without the Douluo Plane, where will we survive?"

At that moment, a deep voice rang out from the crowd.

"That's right! The Abyss Plane wants to seize our plane and exterminate our race. We must fight them!"

"This war must be fought, or our nation will perish and our race will be wiped out!"

"Abyss Plane, you have truly angered me!"

Immediately afterwards, different voices arose, all so united in their hatred of the enemy, all so full of anger.

In an instant, countless shouts resounded throughout the Star Luo Stadium, the sound booming like thunder.

"This Ant Emperor really wants to improve..."

Sage Emperor stood in the shadows, watching the Ant Emperor darting about among the audience and shouting "Down with the Abyss, give me back Douluo!" He couldn't help but sigh.

However, the Ant Emperor does indeed have a knack for manipulating emotions.

"Sage Emperor, we need to speed up our hunt for the Abyss King," said Scythe Emperor Sickle, licking his dry lips.

Since subduing the Ghost Emperor, he discovered that he also received a reward, and now he's incredibly motivated.

He also wants to improve; he also wants to break through to the God Level!

"You guys..." Sage Emperor shook his head, as if he had taken everything in stride.

He's indifferent to fame and fortune; all he wants is to travel in space. Of course, it would be even better if he had a travel companion to go with him.

On the competition stage, looking at Jiang Xiu's tall and straight figure in front of him, Dai Tianling's eyes showed a complicated expression. He did not expect that Jiang Xiu could divert everyone's hostility to the target with just a few words.

"But this is for the best. Perhaps after the Star Luo Empire merges into the Federation, the people of the Star Luo Empire will be able to achieve better development."

"Since that's the case, let me give you one more hand!"

Dai Tianling's heart was churning, but a resolute glint flashed in her eyes. She strode forward to Jiang Xiu, her gaze sweeping over her Star Luo Empire.

"I'm sure everyone is aware of the crisis we are all facing right now. I won't say much more, just one sentence."

At this moment, Dai Tianling seemed to regain his former imperial majesty, his voice carrying an undeniable authority and fervor:

"Although we, the Star Luo Empire Realm, have submitted to the Federation, it's because we share a common enemy. If the day truly comes Douluo Plane annihilation..."

"Anyone who can restore the mountains and rivers and save the people may take this vast and beautiful land of the Star Luo Empire for their own use and become the ruler of all people!"

"I only have this one sentence to say!"

"The Star Luo Empire realm may perish, but the world must not perish! The Douluo Plane must not perish!"

Qingfeng blew by, causing Dai Tianling's dragon robe to flutter slightly. But at that very moment, as Dai Tianling looked at his fellow Star Luo Empire shared his hatred of the enemy, he suddenly felt a sense of relief.

He was not a ruler who brought about the downfall of his kingdom...

Jiang Xiu listened to these words, his Blood Pupil flickering slightly, and he was even somewhat surprised.

He hadn't expected Dai Tianling to be so resolute and principled.

As Dai Tianling finished speaking, the people of the Star Luo Empire looked at their emperor and felt a surge of emotion welling up in their hearts, but they could not say anything.

"Jiang Xiu, I have high hopes for you!"

"Star Luo Empire didn't lose to the Federation; rather, it recognized your worth."

Dai Tianling turned and patted Jiang Xiu on the shoulder. This sound was not transmitted through sound, but was clearly heard by everyone in the Star Luo Stadium.

As soon as she finished speaking, Dai Tianling's figure disappeared from the competition stage.

Huang Zhengyang then began organizing the evacuation of the crowd inside the Star Luo Stadium.

"Sigh, I've owed someone another favor."

Jiang Xiu muttered to himself, but a slight smile appeared on his lips. Dai Tianling's last words were undoubtedly a golden signboard for him, propelling his reputation in the Star Luo Empire to its peak.

Furthermore, no one can take away the credit for subjugating the Star Luo Empire.

After the crowd at Star Luo Stadium gradually dispersed, Jiang Xiu approached Dai Tianling on the main stage.

"Senior Dai, you have even more courage than your ancestor." Jiang Xiu bowed slightly, showing the respect due to a junior.

"You don't need to tease me, kid. Huo Yuhao's ancestor was a symbol of unyielding strength throughout the entire Soul Master World. I simply made the right choice for the Star Luo Empire."

Dai Tianling shook his head and smiled, but he looked much more tired. No matter what, he was the one who gave away the Star Luo Empire.

"If you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can come to the Body Sect to find me," Jiang Xiu said softly.

"Alright, then I won't stand on ceremony." Dai Tianling looked up at Jiang Xiu, her expression a mixture of regret and admiration.

The last time I saw Jiang Xiu, Jiang Xiu was still competing in their Star Luo Empire. In just a few short years, Jiang Xiu has become a powerhouse capable of defeating Limit Douluo.

"Senior Dai, as for those who want to cause trouble, as we just said, leave them to me."

Jiang Xiu gave a brief explanation.

"If it's going to rain, it's going to rain; if a mother wants to remarry, let them be."

Dai Tianling paused for a moment, then waved his hand.

"Then please rest, I'll take my leave now."

Jiang Xiu nodded slightly, cupped his hands in greeting, and then strolled away.

"Oh, right." But just then, Dai Tianling suddenly spoke up:

"Jiang Xiu, may the indomitable spirit of your ancestor Huo Yuhao protect you as you fight against the Abyss Plane."

"Huh?" Jiang Xiu paused, his expression instantly freezing.

He and Dai Tianling have no grudge against each other, so why would Dai Tianling curse him?

At this moment, Dai Tianling continued:

"Oh right, since you'll be an official in the Federation in the future, you're bound to encounter some dirty dealings, so may the Ice-Pure and Jade-Clean spirit of the Sea God Tang San protect you!"

"..."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiu vanished instantly, leaving behind only afterimages.

If he were to be protected by these two, it would be an ominous sign.

"His Majesty..."

After Jiang Xiu left, the ministers who were guarding Dai Tianling wanted to say something, but couldn't bring themselves to say it.

"Everyone, please leave."

Dai Tianling watched this scene, chuckled, and waved his hand.

The ministers remained silent for a moment, but as one person stood up and left, many others followed suit.

In the end, less than one in ten ministers remained.

The Star Luo Empire's ship can't reach the other side; it's time for them to make arrangements for their own family's affairs.

"You may all go as well." Looking at the ministers who remained, Dai Tianling's expression softened, and he spoke again.

"His Majesty..."

Looking at Dai Tianling's unquestionable face, the ministers raised their mouths, but ultimately said nothing.

Dai Tianling sat at the head of the table, looking at the group whose shadows were stretched long by the light, and shook his head slightly, but his voice became authoritative and high-pitched again:

"Gentlemen, although the Star Luo Empire is gone, Star Luo Empire beautiful lands and rivers still exist, as do the Sun Moon, and stars. Please proceed with caution..."

Several ministers paused, knelt down in the direction of Dai Tianling, and then slowly disappeared.

"Born into the royal family, I competed with my brothers for the throne from a young age. Ultimately, with the guidance of my teachers, I ascended the throne before the White Tiger Gate."

"From the day I ascended the throne, I have worked diligently and devoted myself wholeheartedly to the Star Luo Empire. Under my rule, the Star Luo Empire has developed faster in the last few decades than it had in the previous century."

"However, even if I were to hand over the Star Luo Empire now, I cannot escape the responsibility I bear."

Dai Tianling looked at the sunlight streaming down from above and murmured to himself.

"Father! Father!"

But just then, Dai Yun'er and Dai Yueyan ran in from outside, looking somewhat anxious.

"What's wrong?" Dai Tianling asked, frowning.

"Father, there are over 100,000 Star Luo Empire gathered outside the Star Luo Stadium, a huge crowd chanting your name. Please go out and take a look!"

"Dai Yun'er said urgently."

"What?!"

Dai Tianling was taken aback, then a strange feeling welled up in her heart, and her tired expression instantly perked up.

"I am absolutely not a ruler who will bring about the downfall of his country! I am absolutely not a ruler who will bring about the downfall of his country!"

"When future generations mention me, they will certainly not describe me as a coward!"
