Blazing Sun Douluo

It's such a pity about Sister Na, sigh...

After gaining the ability to fly on a sword, only Hu Liena and Huo Wu had ever ridden the Heavenly Frost Cold Qi together. At this moment, Yu Tianshuang felt the soft warmth coming from behind her, and couldn't help but feel a little distracted.

The way Huo Wu and Hu Liena wrapped their arms around his waist didn't give him this kind of experience. Among the girls he had been intimate with, only Ye Lingling could do this. However, Zhu Zhuqing was really strong. Lengleng probably didn't have her level of skill.

"Huh... what's that?"

The two people flying on their swords in the sky quickly arrived at the territory of the Star Luo Empire at the speed of Yu Tianshuang's sword flight. At this moment, below them, two cavalry units were actually charging and fighting. The leaders of one of the cavalry units were Zhu Zhuqing's sister, Zhu Zhuyun, and Dai Weisi.

"Dai Mubai?"

The people opposite them were also familiar faces— Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun. Although their cavalry force was about the same strength as Dai Weisi's, each wounded cavalryman ate a sausage and quickly regained his fighting ability.

"Let's go down..."

Seeing that their cavalry had quickly lost more than half of their strength, Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun became somewhat agitated. The food-type Soul Master on the other side was providing far too much of a boost to the battlefield, and if this continued, their side would soon be wiped out.

"Martial Soul Fusion Skill: Hell White Tiger!"

As commanders, Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun possessed abilities that Dai Mubai lacked: the power to single-handedly change the course of a battle. Dai Mubai waved his hand, signaling the cavalry to halt, and looked at the enormous Hell White Tiger opposite him, his eyes filled with jealousy and resentment. The position of Crown Prince of the Star Luo Empire should have been his from the start, given his performance in the Soul Master Tournament. However, those old fogies in the royal family insisted on making him and Dai Weisi compete because he couldn't unleash his Martial Soul Fusion Skill alone. Zhu Zhuqing, it's all your fault!

"Why..."

It was always the same. After seeing the two of them unleash their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Dai Mubai would retreat. His purpose was clear to Dai Weisi: to use the food-type Soul Master's abilities to gradually wear down their cavalry. If his side had to fight desperately with their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, they would retreat. This tactic was actually quite underhanded, but very effective. Now that they were retreating, he couldn't pursue them alone, so he had to maintain the Hell White Tiger state until they had completely retreated before dispelling the Martial Soul Fusion Skill. Looking at Zhu Zhuyun, who was also somewhat helpless, he sighed deeply.

"Elder sister!"

At this moment, a cold female voice suddenly appeared in the sky. Zhu Zhuyun and Dai Weisi looked up and saw two people standing on a long sword. They were Yu Tianshuang and her sister, Zhu Zhuqing.

"Zhu Zhuqing? What are you two doing here?"

After their heart-to-heart talk during the Soul Master Tournament, the misunderstandings between the two sisters had long been resolved. Upon landing, Zhu Zhuqing instantly rushed into her sister's arms. The sisters, reunited after so many years, should have been a heartwarming scene. However, their unusually large figures created a rather awkward distance between them as they embraced, making their hug somewhat strange...

"What just happened? Zhu Zhuqing and I were watching from the sky. The Star Luo Empire is having a civil war? If I'm not mistaken, that person over there should be Dai Mubai, right?"

Yu Tianshuang felt a little embarrassed seeing the "grand scene" of the two women embracing. She turned her head and asked Dai Weisi, who also looked somewhat unnatural.

"Since the Soul Master Tournament ended five years ago, Zhu Yun and I returned to the Star Luo Empire. My father originally intended to make me the crown prince, but the royal family members suggested that Dai Mubai, who had better performance, should be made the crown prince instead. Over the years, the two factions have been arguing endlessly, and the position of crown prince has remained undecided until recently when Dai Mubai returned. What you just saw is the struggle between the two sides for the position of crown prince of the Star Luo Empire."

"Fortunately, Dai Mubai alone cannot unleash the Hell White Tiger, otherwise this battle wouldn't even be necessary..."

After saying all this, Dai Weisi glanced at Yu Tianshuang with some gratitude. If he hadn't "kidnapped" Zhu Zhuqing, given Dai Mubai's current twisted personality, if he had really become the crown prince, his and Zhu Yun's fate would probably have been...

"I see. Zhu Zhuqing and I came to the Star Luo Empire mainly because of the Clear Sky Sect and the Star Luo Empire. You must already know about the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. In order to prevent the two great empires from joining forces, Zhu Zhuqing and I came here."

Bibi Dong's instructions were not very specific, but she had only one request: that the two great empires not be allowed to join forces to prevent the Clear Sky Sect from emerging from seclusion.

"This matter has also had a huge impact on the Star Luo Empire. Father's attitude towards the Heaven Dou Empire and the Spirit Hall is actually more inclined towards the Heaven Dou Empire. After all, the two empires have been at odds for so long, and neither has been confident of unifying the continent. They have always been divided and ruled. However, the actions of your Spirit Hall some time ago have indeed made Father wary. Dai Mubai's return now is not only for the position of Crown Prince of the Star Luo Empire, but also brings the Heaven Dou Empire's desire to unite against the Spirit Hall."

Regardless of who ultimately becomes the crown prince, Dai Weisi himself held the same view. Even if Dai Mubai becomes the crown prince, he does not want to see his empire reduced to dust by the Spirit Hall.

"I understand your thoughts, but personally, I believe that submission is the best option. To be honest, with the strength of the Spirit Hall, unifying this continent is only a matter of time. Resisting will only lead to more deaths and displacement of the people. War is always cruel."

Although Dai Weisi didn't express his own thoughts, Yu Tianshuang understood from his tone that he also agreed to join forces with the Heaven Dou Empire.

"Aren't you being a bit too confident? If the Spirit Hall is really that powerful, why have the two great empires still ruled the continent for so many years? You have to understand that both the Heaven Dou and Star Luo Empire Empires have at least a million soldiers under their command, while the Spirit Hall, with its limited territory of just one city, how many troops can it possibly have? You have to remember that waging war is not something that one or two Titled Douluo can do."

Dai Weisi inwardly scoffed at Yu Tianshuang's words. Perhaps this young man was a very talented Soul Master, but his understanding of war was far too simplistic.

"What you're saying now might be true at this moment, but I want to tell you that in the future, those who will dominate the war will be Soul Master. The Spirit Hall's strength far exceeds your imagination. How about this, let's make a deal. Zhu Zhuqing and I can help you win the position of Crown Prince. In return, what you need to give up is that after you take control of the Star Luo Empire, you will choose to submit."

Ultimately, Dai Weisi's understanding was limited by his limited perspective. He may have been very talented in leading troops and politics, but his understanding of true power and strength was too superficial.

As soon as Yu Tianshuang made her suggestion, Dai Weisi wanted to refuse, but seeing Yu Tianshuang's confident appearance, he swallowed his words. His intuition told him that choosing to trade with Yu Tianshuang might be the right thing to do, but with his knowledge, he simply couldn't believe that the Spirit Hall really had the strength to unify the continent.

"You can think about it carefully. Don't rush to give me an answer. Of course, I personally hope that you make the right choice. After all, your words now may be the key to whether the Star Luo Empire can still exist in the future. From an empire to a vassal kingdom, it doesn't really change anything for the people of the Star Luo Empire. It doesn't matter who rules them from the top, as long as the people can live better, that's what matters, don't you think?"

Seeing Dai Weisi deep in thought, Yu Tianshuang knew that he was unable to make a choice at this moment, so she was not in a hurry.

"Let's go, Zhu Zhuqing, to the Clear Sky Sect. You sisters can have a good chat when we get back."

"Okay, Brother Tianshuang."

It's unclear what these two incredibly attractive women were talking about. Zhu Zhuqing's face was flushed, and her usually soft and aloof voice made her seem even smaller, like a kitten.

"What did you two talk about? You look so serious."

Zhu Zhuqing watched her sister, Yu Tianshuang, leave on her long sword, feeling somewhat reluctant to part. After watching them disappear into the horizon, she looked at Dai Weisi, who was silent and had a very serious expression, and asked him curiously.

"Zhu Yun, do you think what he said is true? Is the Spirit Hall really that powerful? With millions of soldiers from the two great empires combined, I can't imagine what the Spirit Hall can rely on to unify the continent in the future."

Dai Weisi repeated Yu Tianshuang's words to Zhu Zhuyun verbatim. In fact, Zhu Zhuyun made the decisions most of the time, while he was more like a general leading troops into battle.

"Hmm... Actually, I don't think we need to rush into a decision. We can take it one step at a time. But the crisis we're facing right now is very real. Our troops are being decimated too quickly. That food-type Soul Master in Dai Mubai's team is just too strong against the main force. It won't be long before we're wiped out. Speaking of which, I've always had this feeling that Zhu Zhuqing has always trusted Yu Tianshuang so much. Maybe we can't see it clearly now, but in the future, perhaps it really is as he said: Soul Master are the key to dominating the battlefield. Right now, a single food-type Soul Master has tipped the scales of this war. What about the future? We can't always use the past as our standard."

Hearing Zhu Zhuyun's words, Dai Weisi's heart wavered even more. This was what he was going through. This battle was originally not in any suspense. With his and Zhu Zhuyun's Hell White Tiger, the battle should not have turned out like this. But just one food-type Soul Master had tipped the scales of the war. Perhaps Yu Tianshuang was right.

"Brother Tang Xiao, it's been many years! You're still as dashing as ever, and the fame of the Clear Sky Twins is even greater!"

At this moment, inside the Clear Sky Sect, Yu Yuanzhen laughed and said to Tang Xiao, who was sitting in the main seat of the hall.

"Sect Master Yu, may I ask what brings you to my Clear Sky Sect? Let's get straight to the point..."

"Here's the thing... That's why I've come here today hoping that the Clear Sky Sect will step forward and join forces against the Spirit Hall. Now the Spirit Hall's claws have begun to extend across the continent. If we remain closed off, we'll only be defeated one by one by the Spirit Hall. So, Brother Tang Xiao, what do you think?"

Yu Yuanzhen's words made Tang Xiao fall into deep thought. After so many years of seclusion, had the Spirit Hall's power actually grown to such a terrifying level? The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was also one of the Upper Three Sects. The incident back then forced the Qian Xunji Clear Sky Sect to go into seclusion and expel Hao Di. It was expected that the Spirit Hall would fall into decline after Qian Xunji's death, but unexpectedly, they now dared to openly attack the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, threatening to annihilate them if they did not submit. This made Tang Xiao, who had been living in seclusion behind the mountain gate for many years, feel somewhat incredulous.

"I have a question about this matter. You said that your sect's second sect master was killed by his own grandson, a traitor to your sect, a mere Soul Emperor?"

With Tang Xiao's strength, it wasn't hard for him to sense the old tyrant's current cultivation level. Even if the Spirit Hall sent two Titled Douluo, it was still hard for him to accept that Yu Yuanzhen would kill Yu Luomian, especially since it was the Soul Emperor who killed him.

"That's right. Although I'm reluctant to admit it, that traitor, Yu Tianshuang, possesses talent, aptitude, and strength that I have never seen before in my life. To put it bluntly, even your sect's Tang Hao is no match for this young man. Given time, he will undoubtedly become a major threat to us."

"Report! Sect Master, someone is climbing the mountain from below. The message is that they are from the Spirit Hall!"

Tang Xiao, who was about to say something, was suddenly interrupted by the intruding disciple. After glancing at Yu Yuanzhen, he spoke:

"Let Elder Tang Lie go and meet with the people from the Spirit Hall first. I will arrive shortly after. Sect Master Yu, please wait here for a moment."

At this moment, at the foot of the Clear Sky Sect Mountain, a group of disciples wielding Clear Sky Hammer glared resentfully at Yu Tianshuang and Zhu Zhuqing and said:

"People from the Spirit Hall, leave immediately! We do not welcome people from the Spirit Hall here!"

As the younger generation of disciples, they had grown up listening to the legends of the Clear Sky Twins. They deeply admired Tang Hao, who was expelled from the sect because of the Spirit Hall. However, the fact that this man and woman claimed to be from the Spirit Hall made them furious.

"I need to see your sect leader. I think you'd better go and inform him."

Yu Tianshuang was prepared for the unfriendly attitude of these Clear Sky Sect disciples, and still spoke calmly.

"Is the sect leader of my Clear Sky Sect someone you, a lackey of the Spirit Hall, someone you can just meet whenever you want?"

Just as the leading disciple was about to speak, a very domineering voice came from the sky. As soon as the voice fell, a giant hammer Entanglement in flames fell down, instantly smashing a deep crater into the ground.

"You lackeys of the Spirit Hall, how dare you show your face here? If you want to see our sect master, you'll have to get past the Clear Sky Hammer in my hand first!"

The newcomer was none other than Tang Lie, the seventh elder of the Clear Sky Sect, whose title was Lieyang.
