Heaven Dou City.

The meeting hall of the Royal Palace.

The height of the main hall is astonishing, and the huge dome seems to hang down from the sky. The dome is not a simple arc, but is made of fine gold outlining the complex star trails, and the imperial emblem - the soaring snow-white Swan. In the center of the dome is a huge piece of Deep Sea Moonlight Stone with a soft halo, like an artificial moon, illuminating the entire hall brightly but not dazzlingly.

On the nine-step jade platform is the Swan throne, which symbolizes Tiandou's absolute imperial power.

Behind the wings of the main hall of the Council Hall, there is a thick alloy door engraved with the secret pattern of the empire, with the words 'Senate Hall' written above it.

Stepping inside, a more condensed and solemn atmosphere arises spontaneously than in the main hall. The light here is more concentrated, the dome is relatively low but still grand, the decorative details are denser and more elegant, and every inch of space is only for the empire's core decision-makers.

Inside the hall.

A huge rectangular table lies in the center of the hall, long enough to accommodate dozens of key officials lined up on both sides.

Lin Mengmeng was dressed in white, with a feminine and enchanting temperament, sitting on the seat on the left side of the desk. His slender fingers touched the armrest of the seat. Wherever he passed, a slight natural warmth came from his fingertips.

His royal red eyes were slightly focused, and the main body of the seat was actually made of the top material Earth Core Fire Copperwood!

Looking at the desk, the overall tone is dark gold, and the edge of the table is finely carved with mithril and fine gold. The tabletop is as smooth as the surface, and you can clearly see the complex star patterns in the jet black color below. The main body should be made of the extremely rare Ten Thousand Year star pattern ebony wood.

The thick and soft snow-white carpet on the ground should also be made of high-end soul Beast Hide hair tanning.

When he first came in, the touch felt great when he stepped on it. Even if he didn't deliberately maintain it, it was silent.

So rich!

But this is the royal family after all, so luxury is not surprising at all. Lin Mengmeng smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth.

Luxury is good, money is good!

"Mr. Lin, the Emperor is ill. Today, our tripartite talks will be hosted by me, Xue Xing, with full authority."

"Let me first introduce the people present. On my left are His Highness Xue Qinghe, the eldest prince of Tiandou, and Pang Hong, the Imperial Finance Minister. On my right are the prince Dai Lingchen who came all the way from the Star Luo Empire and Duke Mobis, who is in charge of the finance of Star Luo. In this way, the three of us can discuss the compensation matters you mentioned."

Opposite the desk, the person who spoke was none other than Prince Xue Xing, who was dressed in a luxurious gold-red robe and wore a jeweled crown.

Next to him, Prince Star Luo Empire, Dai Lingchen, was wearing gorgeous light armor, with an iron-blooded look.

Tiandou The Chancellor of Finance is an old man with white hair and beard, and he is energetic. The Duke Star Luo Empire is a middle-aged man. Both of them are wearing formal attire, but the temperament of one is noble, while the other is fierce and majestic.

They all carry the arrogance of those in power.

First Prince of Tiandou Xue Qinghe was dressed much more simply. He was just wearing an elegant gown with a gentle and harmless smile on his face. Although he was simple, his temperament was not inferior to anyone present, and no one dared to look down upon him.

Behind these five people, there are two expressionless old men in black robes sitting by the wall. Judging from the faint Soul Power fluctuations they emit, there is no doubt that they are two Soul Douluo guards!

Lin Mengmeng looked at the seven people opposite, and his eyes stayed on the two black-robed old men behind him for a second longer. He nodded in greeting and introduced his companions, "Life Reaper Xiao Kong, my fourth brother, I believe everyone has investigated and heard about my name Blizzard Squad, so I won't say more."

Unexpectedly, Duke Mobis next to Prince Star Luo Empire chuckled and said, "Life Reaper, hum, I think it's more than enough to collect debts. Blizzard Soul Sage is really good at business. He can come up with ways to make money for our two empires to compensate for the trivial things and trivial things. I really admire him."

Facing the other party's sarcasm, Xiao Kong's eyes revealed a dangerous look, staring at Mobis as if he were staring at a prey.

"With your junior Soul Emperor cultivation, with the distance between you and me, before Soul Douluo reacts behind your back, I can let you see blood and taste what it feels like to be Life Reaper."

"Fourth brother, don't be impulsive!" Lin Mengmeng held Xiao Kong down before he finished speaking.

A gust of breeze passed by, Xiao Kong curled his lips, but failed to make a move. If it weren't for Lin Mengmeng, he would have already made a hole in the opponent's shoulder.

He will not be used to these nobles, even if it is in Tiandou's territory. If he dares to make provocations, he will pay the price!

Mobis, who was sitting opposite, suddenly felt a chill in his heart when the breeze blew by. He narrowed his eyes slightly, but he didn't expect that the other party was really ready to take action.

However, it seems to be a good idea to induce the other party to deal with the loss.

Just when Mobis was thinking this, his eyes somehow subconsciously met Lin Mengmeng's strange pair of red eyes that pierced people's hearts.

In just a moment, he felt a strong dizziness coming over him.

"You! Mr. Ouyang!!"

Mobis covered his head in great discomfort. Soul Douluo behind him heard the shout and immediately stood up, emitting a powerful Soul Power aura belonging to Soul Douluo.

"The famous Blizzard Red Demon actually made a sneak attack. I'm afraid it's inappropriate." The old man, who was called Mr. Ouyang, said in a hoarse voice.

Lin Mengmeng withdrew his red-eyed gaze and said with a smile, "Don't be nervous, Your Excellency. I'm just giving your master a warning. I hope that the Duke will understand the current situation and prevent it from happening again."

"Since I attended this tripartite negotiation meeting, I think I must have become aware of the whole incident. I don't want to waste my energy on having a war of words with uninformed fools."

Being insulted in person, Mobis's face turned livid, and the dizziness in his mind dissipated. He originally just wanted to give the other party a blow, but he didn't expect that not only was that Xiao Kong rampant, but this Lin Mengmeng was even more domineering!

The anger in his heart could not go away, but Dai Lingchen spoke.

"Okay, everyone, take a step back and get to the point as soon as possible. Mr. Lin, we Star Luo Empire are willing to participate in the Shadow Dragon Hall operation for the imperial general and make compensation for the assassination of the elder son Demon Bear. Please tell us your requirements."

"Of course, let's talk it over first. I, Star Luo Empire, agreed to compensate based on my apology for the traitor in the country, rather than admitting my involvement in this matter. Yaqi's behavior was entirely his own will. The Yaqi family has been removed from the Star Luo Empire. This is my Star Luo Empire's sincerity. I hope everyone knows."

At this time, Xue Xing also said, "Prince Dai and I agree. The Cardo Snake family has also been removed from Tiandou. This is also Tiandou's sincerity in apologizing for this robbery and murder. So, Mr. Lin, please state your request."

After listening to the speeches of the two princes, Lin Mengmeng nodded and said, "The empire did not disappoint, so I will recount the whole incident again and verify my opinions."

"One year ago, Death Desert Shadow Dragon Hall dispatched a powerful lineup of one Title and two Soul Sage to rob and kill me Spirit Hall Gold Rank, the number one genius elite, my eldest brother Demon Bear Douluo's only son, and the Pope's direct disciple Xu Huxiao. Among the participants were Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan hidden Title Shadow Dragon One of Yu Yuanying and Star Luo Twelve Generals, Yaqi and Tiandou, whose surname is Marquis Cardo Snake. Fortunately, the elders of our palace Ghost Elder and Purple Scorpion were able to resolve the situation, so that the robbery and murder of the Shadow Dragon Hall could not be successful. The main culprit in this robbery and murder was Shadow Dragon Hall, Tiandou and Star Luo Empire. It is suspected that high-level figures from the two empires were involved. He is a spy for the Shadow Dragon Hall, and the empire is responsible for the oversight. According to the opinions of the two elders of our palace, Demon Bear and punishment Chrysanthemum and Ghost, the top priority is to eliminate Shadow Dragon Hall, the cancer of Soul Master World. The empire and Spirit Hall should not have conflicts over this matter, so they proposed to resolve the matter with compensation from the empire, as evidenced by the elders' documents and warrants."

"Do you agree with the above that each of the two princes represents the empire?"
