Dai Mubai's face was filled with shock and panic, but when he saw Zhu Zhuqing looking at Lin Chen with adoration, an inexplicable jealousy instantly rose in his heart.
" Zhu Zhuqing is mine!"
Sixth Soul Skill: White Tiger Destruction Kill!
As soon as he finished speaking, his Soul Power formed a huge white tiger that charged directly at Lin Chen —his strongest attack!
Lin Chen scoffed and casually unleashed a Soul Skill: " First Soul Skill, Startling Swan!"
Bang! Boom boom boom...
A single sword aura shattered Dai Mubai's strongest trump card, and the white sword aura continued its relentless attack towards Dai Mubai's main body.
"What?!" Dai Mubai's face paled in shock, and he quickly retreated, unleashing his Fifth Soul Skill: " White Tiger Demon God Transformation!"
His Fifth Soul Skill not only more than doubles his attack power, but also enhances his defense, making it a level stronger than his Third Soul Skill, White Tiger Vajra Transformation.
It was precisely because of this Soul Skill that Dai Mubai was able to withstand an ordinary Soul Saint.
Bang! Splat!
Even with his defense more than doubled, he was still pierced through the shoulder by Lin Chen's Soul Skill, spitting out a mouthful of blood. His Martial Soul dissipated, and he staggered to the ground.
One move!
This genius prince of the Star Luo Empire was defeated in a single move!
"Heh..." Lin Chen slowly walked up to him, saying expressionlessly, " Zhu Zhuqing and Dailisi are mine from now on."
Upon hearing that he dared to insult his mother, Dai Mubai instantly flew into a rage. " Lin Chen, I'll kill you!"
Snap!
"Shut up!"
At that moment, the blonde beauty suddenly appeared in front of him and slapped him hard across the face. "Who gave you the audacity to disrespect the Emperor?"
Dai Mubai was slightly taken aback, looking at her with a wronged expression. "Mother, he just said something about you..."
Snap!
"Shut up!" Dailisi slapped him again, then forced a smile and said, " Your Emperor, Mubai lost the match, which has affected his mood. Please don't take it to heart."
At this moment, she was afraid that Lin Chen would get angry and kill Dai Mubai directly, since the Star Luo Emperor would not risk offending the Spirit Hall for the sake of a prince.
Lin Chen surveyed her mature, beautiful, and noble figure, then said meaningfully, " Empress Dailisi, rest assured, I have important matters that require your attention, so I won't make things difficult for him."
"Hehehe..."
After saying that, he turned and left, then casually put his arm around Zhu Zhuqing's slender waist, and the latter leaned against him, looking weak and boneless.
Lin Chen said calmly, "Great Emperor, don't forget your promise. Tonight, I will be at the Spirit Hall Branch, awaiting Empress Dailisi."
Star Luo Emperor's lips twitched violently, his face turning green with anger, but he dared not utter a word of dissent, even forcing a smile, "Understood."
"Then I'll take my leave. No need to see me off."
Star Luo Empire Inner Palace, Imperial Bedchamber
Snap!
Upon returning to his bedchamber, the Star Luo Emperor, enraged, slapped Dailisi across the face and roared, "Who told you to agree to his request?! Do you know how much shame you've brought upon me and the Star Luo Empire Imperial Family today?!"
Dailisi's beautiful face was already slightly red and swollen, clearly indicating that her opponent hadn't held back at all. Hearing his words, she couldn't help but sneer, "If the Great Emperor didn't want this, why did he agree to the promise he made?!"
Snap!
The Star Luo Emperor slapped her again, coldly shouting, "You shameless woman, you still dare to be stubborn?! Believe me, I'll depose your empress!"
"Ugh..." Dailisi let out a low, magnetic moan, then sneered, "In my humble opinion, Your Majesty has long wanted to depose me, hasn't he?"
Her family's power in the Star Luo Empire is growing stronger, but her son Dai Mubai is a good-for-nothing who can't be helped. Therefore, the Star Luo Emperor does not want to support Dai Mubai to ascend the throne, but wants the eldest prince Dai Weisi instead.
In that case, Dailisi will certainly not give up easily and will definitely forcefully support Dai Mubai to take the throne, which will endanger Dai Weisi's life, something that the Star Luo Emperor will not allow.
Today's incident was merely a trigger, which led Star Luo Emperor to utter the words of dismissing the Empress.
There was no longer any affection between them; all that remained was a struggle for interests and power...
The Star Luo Emperor, exposed without flinching, declared, "Guards, keep an eye on the Empress! She's not allowed to go anywhere today!"
"Yes!"
At the entrance of the hall, two golden-armored guards entered the hall, knelt down in salute, and then stood guard at the entrance.
A short while later, Star Luo Emperor Xingluo turned and left, while Empress Dailisi was imprisoned in the imperial palace and deprived of her freedom.
Deep within the inner palace, Star Luo Empire Forbidden Ground.
This place is heavily guarded, with sentries every three steps and guards every five steps, and many members of the Star Luo Royal Guard patrolling back and forth. It is extremely well-protected and is a forbidden area of the Star Luo Imperial Palace. No one except the Emperor, even the Empress and princes, are qualified to enter.
Tap tap...
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Star Luo Emperor walked into the main hall of the forbidden area with a blank expression, then wandered around Doudou a long time before finally stopping in front of a side hall.
"The current Star Luo Emperor, Dai Yutian, requests an audience with all the venerable ancestors!"
After a long silence, the side hall door slowly opened, revealing three ancient figures dressed in simple clothes sitting cross-legged in the main hall.
The elderly man in the center said expressionlessly, " Yutian, didn't I tell you not to disturb us unless it's a matter of life and death?"
The Star Luo Emperor immediately knelt down, weeping as he pleaded, "Three Ancestors, I, the Star Luo Emperor, am now facing a life-or-death crisis. Today, that Emperor from the Spirit Hall came to our Star Luo Empire Palace as a guest, and I treated him with utmost hospitality. Not only did he forcibly abduct my daughter-in-law, but he also publicly provoked my Empress, demanding that she dance for him in private, or else... or else he would have the Spirit Hall annihilate us!"
"This junior really can't handle it."
The Star Luo Emperor's embellished report instantly enraged the three Star Luo Empire Ancestor. They had long since withdrawn from worldly affairs and devoted themselves to cultivation, and would not show themselves until the Star Luo Empire faced a life-or-death crisis.
"Hmph! Outrageous!" The old man living there sneered, "Third brother, go out and support Yutian. My Star Luo Empire is not like Heaven Dou; we are not to be trifled with!"
"Understood, brother."
All three were from the same generation as Dai Yutian's grandfather, while none of his father's generation had broken through to the Titled Douluo and had long since passed away.
Third brother. " Yutian, how do you plan to resolve this matter?"
Dai Yutian quickly said, "Third Grandfather, I won't let Dailisi go to him tonight, but he definitely won't let it go easily. Tomorrow, I'll trouble you to deal with the Evil Soul Master and reveal your strength Titled Douluo. Then he'll have to think twice before trying to turn against me again!"
Third Grandfather nodded in satisfaction. "Hmm~ You've made progress!"
"Alas, the Spirit Hall's power is far greater than ours. Your great-grandfather only sent me out to help you protect the Star Luo Empire. We absolutely cannot become their enemy!"
" Yutian understand!"
