Du Busi Bowed His Head to Me. Who Else Objects?

"You..."

Seeing that the young man before him had stopped there and made no further attack,

Du Busi had nothing to say.

The old fellow had originally intended to avenge his disciple,

and, while he was at it, put the Heavenly Soul Empire's imperial family in its place.

But he hadn't expected reality to slap him viciously across the face.

This young man, only at level 91, had actually trounced Du Busi before everyone's eyes.

If word got out, it would probably shake the entire Douluo Continent!

"What is it, senior? Haven't you had enough fighting?"

"Or do you still have some trump card you haven't played?"

Perhaps seeing the conflicted expression on Du Busi's face,

Luo Feng decided to help him work through it.

In fact, let alone the Mountain Dragon King, who was above level 90,

even if Luo Feng were still only a Soul Saint,

Du Busi couldn't defeat him if he attacked with all his might.

"Alas!"

"The waves behind drive the waves before them along the Yangtze!"

"It seems an old wave like me really is going to die on the beach!"

This was only human nature.

Du Busi knew very well

that if they had really fought to the death just now, using every trick they had,

the one who fell in the end would probably still have been...

"All right. This old man keeps his word!"

"From now on, we of the Body Sect will no longer interfere in your engagement to the princess!"

"What's more, the Body Sect has close ties with the imperial family. When the time comes, we'll present you with a lavish gift!"

Who could have imagined it?

The strongest body cultivator in the Heavenly Soul Empire, a level 98 expert,

had actually bowed his head to a young man before everyone's eyes.

Just what kind of heaven-defying sight was this?

"A Feng!"

"You're truly amazing!"

"I knew the man I chose was the child of destiny!"

Seeing Du Busi bow his head

and prepare to slink away with his subordinates,

Princess Vina was overjoyed.

To reward her husband,

the beautiful princess did something that made everyone's cheeks flush and hearts race.

She hurried straight up to him,

wrapped her arms around her lover's neck,

and kissed him in front of everyone!

Although it wasn't the first time,

the people present were all the most prominent figures in the empire.

There were even elders from the major sects there to watch the excitement.

Under the circumstances, the princess's actions spoke volumes.

"Uncles, please bear witness for me. In this lifetime, I will marry no one but him!"

Well, all right then!

Seeing the empire's princess hand out dog food so openly,

several old fellows nearby couldn't help turning their backs.

It wasn't because they felt awkward or embarrassed,

but because they felt ashamed of their own inferiority!

Who among those present hadn't been young once?

Who hadn't had all sorts of fantasies?

But it seemed Luo Feng was the only one who had actually made those fantasies a reality!

Who knew why this man was so charming?

He could drive human beauties wild for him and make beautiful Soul Beasts submit to him!

"Shouldn't we strike while the iron is hot and form an alliance led by the Tianwen Empire?"

Seeing the looks on the faces of those around her,

Princess Vina made an unexpected suggestion.

Originally, there had been three great empires on the Douluo Continent, with the Star Luo Empire the strongest among them.

At the same time, relying on Shrek Academy's ability to rally support,

everyone had joined forces to defend against the Sun Moon Empire.

But in truth, this alliance was not a solid block of iron.

The Heavenly Soul Empire and the Dou Ling Empire had originally split from a single empire,

so they instinctively resisted the Star Luo Empire.

If the new alliance were led by one of these two long-established empires,

things might be much better.

Hearing the princess's proposal,

many people present immediately began whispering among themselves.

"I'm afraid that won't work!"

"The Dou Ling Empire would be easier to deal with. We still have a little contact with each other!"

"But the Star Luo Empire definitely won't be so easy to persuade!"

"And what about Shrek Academy? Who would coordinate with them?"

Just as everyone was talking at once,

a hearty laugh rang out.

Then someone appeared whom no one had expected.

"Hahaha!"

"The Star Luo Empire agrees!"

"The Heavenly Soul Empire and Mr. Luo have shown us hope for the alliance!"

Who could have imagined it?

The person who said this was none other than the White Tiger Duke, Dai Hao.

This old friend had been in the tent the whole time.

He had been waiting too,

wanting to see whether Luo Feng had the strength.

The Star Luo Empire revered martial strength above all else.

It had been that way since ten thousand years ago.

And after seeing Du Busi bow his head, the White Tiger Duke could no longer hold back.

He stepped straight back into the second rank, willingly serving as a green leaf.

Of course, the White Tiger Duke wasn't stupid.

He had made this proposal partly to ease the pressure on the Star Luo Empire.

For so many years,

the Star Luo Empire had always stood at the very front,

and so it had suffered the greatest losses in every respect.

Now that the Heavenly Soul Empire had risen as a new force,

there was nothing wrong with him playing a supporting role in the room!

"Brother Dai, how come you're here?"

Luo Feng was somewhat surprised to see the White Tiger Duke appear,

but he soon understood.

"Brother Luo, it's only been a few months since we parted at the border, and you're already a Titled Douluo!"

"I can give up the position of alliance leader with peace of mind!"

The White Tiger Duke was quite crafty.

He had said all the right things.

"Hahaha, excellent!"

"Since even the White Tiger Duke has said so, we of the Body Sect agree too!"

Seeing the former alliance leader bow his head to their side,

Du Busi, who had been full of resentment, immediately relaxed his knitted brows.

In fact, Du Busi hated the Sun Moon Empire more than anyone present.

But because he lacked the strength,

he had never gained the upper hand in any of their clashes.

And now Luo Feng, this rising star, had appeared.

According to intelligence, he had even dared to drive Long Xiaoyao away.

If they put this young man in the highest position,

perhaps he really could bring a fresh outlook to the alliance of the three great empires!

"Sect Master Du, now that both our sides have agreed, we only need the Dou Ling Empire to agree..."

Seeing that Du Busi had suddenly become reasonable as well,

the White Tiger Duke smiled with satisfaction.

This was exactly the result he wanted!

"Husband, we'll handle the coordination with Shrek. I'm a prominent figure in the inner court, after all!"

Seeing the White Tiger Duke and Du Busi shake hands and make peace,

Ma Xiaotao also jumped in to make her presence known.

As someone receiving special attention and training in Shrek Academy's inner court,

Ma Xiaotao did indeed have the standing to speak.

Now, with the addition of an incredible figure like Luo Feng,

she could surely get all of Shrek Academy to give this new alliance serious consideration!

"And me! I can also represent the Clear Sky Sect in joining your alliance!"

"I can do my part with Shrek Academy too!"

Hearing Ma Xiaotao state her position,

Wang Dong stood up as well.

With these two girls joining them, it really felt like adding wings to a tiger!

"All right. Next, we'll go to the Dou Ling Empire first, then settle things with Shrek!"

"We'll make the Douluo Continent great again!"
