When the kiss ended, he Xu Jiujiu pulled away a little, his eyes still glistening with tears, but a relieved smile playing on his lips.
Huo Yuhao gazed at her, his voice gentler than usual. " Jiujiu, this is a bit sudden... Can you give me some time to think it over? The situation is tense right now, and I need to focus on dealing with it. But I promise you, I will give you a clear answer."
Xu Jiujiu nodded gently. "You don't need to answer me right away. After this assassination plan is over, Yuhao, I hope you can give me a real answer."
"Good"
" Yuhao, that guy, he's really got a lot of luck with women," Du Busi, stroking his chin.
"I really didn't expect that he could even attract Princess Jiujiu of the Star Luo Empire. Such charm is truly admirable." Heavenly Sun Douluo shook his head and chuckled, his tone half admiring and half teasing.
Standing a little further away, Dai Luoli's eyes lit up. "My idol is amazing! But if Princess Jiujiu becomes his girlfriend, should I call him brother-in-law?"
After witnessing all of this, the crowd slowly dispersed.
Huo Yuhao also breathed a sigh of relief.
The operation began the following day.
Du Busi and his men are fully prepared; now is the time to begin their operation.
The Sun Moon Empire's detection Soul Tool was no longer of any use to Huo Yuhao. To be honest, he could have simply torn through space to leave and carry out his mission, but with so many people around, he could only reveal a Sisi it.
In Mingdu, all sorts of detection Soul Tool were constantly emerging, and Huo Yuhao vaguely remembered how he had infiltrated last time.
However, this time the spatial jump was performed directly near Mingdu.
Du Busi said to Huo Yuhao in surprise, "I never expected, Yuhao, that you could actually do this."
Heavenly Sun Douluo solemnly echoed, "Indeed, Spirit Ice Douluo lives up to his reputation."
Huo Yuhao simply smiled faintly, "Gentlemen, there's no need to be so polite. Those who need to disguise themselves should do so. We arrived too early; we need to wait for a better opportunity to avoid arousing suspicion."
The two nodded.
The two Titled Douluo powerhouses successfully disguised themselves as inconspicuous figures, looking like their own bodyguards or attendants.
Whatever it is, this step is now complete. As long as it's inconspicuous, that's fine.
Huo Yuhao, on the other hand, has changed his appearance slightly. He now has black hair and blue eyes, with long hair draped over his shoulders. Although his appearance is a little more ordinary than before, it is by no means ordinary, because his original aura is now unstoppable.
The Heavenly Soul Empire has now been occupied by the Sun Moon Empire. Although Huo Yuhao played a part in this, it was mostly due to Ju Zi's efforts.
Empress Ju Zi's fame in the Sun Moon Empire has now surpassed that of Emperor Xu Tianran.
However, there is another matter, the matter of Du Busi. He died by self-destruction in his previous life, and he may be able to escape this life. As the sect leader of the Body Sect, Du Busi is not a bad person, but he cannot be called a good person either.
He can only be described as a morally ambiguous person, just with a different stance from himself. Du Busi has clearly already regarded Huo Yuhao as a friend.
Why? Because Huo Yuhao is loyal, a good friend, and a friend of Princess Vina. In addition, he is already Titled Douluo at such a young age. Therefore, Du Busi only admires Huo Yuhao.
As for his feelings towards Mu En, it was resentment, because if it weren't for Mu En, his older brother wouldn't have died.
Inside the hotel, there was a place that served as a meeting room, which was actually a room.
Du Busi said to Huo Yuhao, " Yuhao, actually, coming to Mingdu isn't just about assassinating Xu Tianran. We have another mission, but I can't tell you about it."
Huo Yuhao smiled slightly, "To prevent the Sun Moon Empire from continuing its invasions of other countries, they need to blow up the arms depot, right?"
Bombing an arms depot isn't inherently a problem, as long as there aren't any casualties. Besides, being a bomb-crazed maniac and Mingdu serial killer wouldn't be good for one's reputation.
Du Busi slowly shook his head, his voice lowering slightly. "No, Yuhao, it's not like that."
Huo Yuhao instantly understood. He thought to himself, "Damn it, this old bastard is trying to hurt my Ju Zi! Ju Zi is due to give birth today. What is this old bastard up to? My son and my wife are in danger!"
Actually, I was somewhat at ease with my clone over there, but now, I'm not at all at ease.
Huo Yuhao raised his head and said coldly, " Old Poison, I don't care about anything else, but this mission of yours absolutely cannot harm any weak person. I understand what you want to do."
Du Busi frowned. " Yuhao, you..."
Huo Yuhao interrupted him, each word seemingly ground out from between his teeth. "Sorry, Old Poison, killing Xu Tianran is fine, but if it involves harming a mother about to give birth, then don't blame me for turning against you."
Du Busi's eyes were somewhat unfocused.
Huo Yuhao sneered and continued, "I can understand who could have proposed this task, the White Tiger Duke, right? Dai Hao is a bastard. Ask him if he even has a mother; how could he do something like this?"
"Now, I can tell you, Old Poison, whether you harmed them, mother and son or mother and daughter, then even if it were you, I wouldn't show any mercy. You wouldn't want your Heavenly Soul Empire to lose two Titled Douluo in a row, would you?"
Du Busi finally couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "What exactly is your relationship with that Ju Zi? Why are you protecting her like this?"
Huo Yuhao merely smirked, "Regardless of whether we're related, whether the crimes are heinous or countless, the only thing I can do for you is eliminate Xu Tianran and then slaughter his remaining brothers."
"I will spare Xu Tianzhen's life. After all, if only the Empress is in power, then there is practically no time to launch an invasion."
Du Busi stared at Huo Yuhao's cold, piercing gaze and said, " Yuhao, you really are righteous. Logically speaking, we Titled Douluo shouldn't do such things, but our country has no other choice; we've been driven to the brink."
His voice was hoarse, "Since White Tiger Duke has made the suggestion, this idea has also come to our attention."
He shook his head, as if mocking himself, yet also feeling helpless. "I didn't expect you to give me such a good talking-to."
Huo Yuhao's expression remained unchanged. He simply said, "I will not let a child be without a mother, nor will I let a mother be without a child, and I will certainly not let a mother and child die before they have even met."
"If Heaven had feelings, it too would grow old; the vicissitudes of life are the true path of humanity."
"You don't understand, you Old Poison. I lost my mother once, and I buried her before my very eyes. I will never let you harm them. Now, even if the gods from heaven came, it wouldn't make a difference."
P. S.: This is definitely a bit of a sloppy piece, guys. I'm feeling a bit out of inspiration. Should I kill a duchess next? Come to think of it, I almost forgot about her. I don't want her to die before I get my revenge.
That would be a real disaster. Consider it a preemptive revenge. After all, the White Tiger Duke's side has no way of knowing who it is. When the time comes, just use Necromancy to change appearance, put on a black robe, and who will know?
