This remark left Lu Yuan feeling quite helpless. He shook his head slightly, a hint of speechlessness on his face.
Zhu Zhuyun is definitely a good older sister, at least she is definitely a good older sister to Zhu Zhuqing.
The two sisters could say that only one of them could enjoy freedom, and she gave it to Zhu Zhuqing without hesitation.
"I will take good care of her, and I hope we can work together happily from now on."
How could Lu Yuan possibly refuse such a simple request from Zhu Zhuyun?
Moreover, based on what Lu Yuan knows now, Zhu Zhuqing is doing quite well; she has even become Bone Douluo's disciple.
Bone Douluo is undoubtedly one of the most powerful figures in the Eight Treasure Glazed Tile School. As Bone Douluo's disciple, Zhu Zhuqing's status is second only to a few people. Even if Lu Yuan doesn't take special care of her, Zhu Zhuqing will definitely not have a bad life.
But since this was Zhu Zhuyun's request, Lu Yuan certainly couldn't refuse.
To ensure that Zhu Zhuyun would not be noticed anything amiss, Lu Yuan decided to make the act as realistic as possible, and if that was the case, then pretending to be unconscious was no better than actually being unconscious.
With the shock of mental power surpassing that of an ordinary Super Douluo, Zhu Zhuyun immediately fainted without any ability to resist.
Having done all this, Lu Yuan immediately disregarded his surroundings, unfurled his golden wings, and transformed into a golden streak of light, disappearing into the horizon.
Ray excels in absolute attack and speed, while Gaia excels in superhuman defense and attack.
In terms of speed, the Gold Wing's bonus is quite significant.
At this point, returning to Tiandou City from the Echoing Plains wouldn't even cost a single day.
Not long after Lu Yuan left, the soldiers who had been knocked unconscious by the mental shock began to open their eyes.
Lu Yuan didn't exert much mental power on these soldiers; it was just a normal shock, without even any aftereffects.
As a large number of soldiers awoke, they were all filled with terror, for the murderer who killed the eldest prince had vanished without a trace.
That's a prince!
Just when all the soldiers were filled with fear and unease, a piece of good news brought them hope: the eldest prince's fiancée, Zhu Zhuyun, the eldest daughter of the Zhu family, had not perished.
As the saying goes, as long as someone is at the forefront, all pressure is no longer pressure.
Now that Zhu Zhuyun is alive, she is the best person to bear all the pressure.
Moreover, the soldiers also learned the true name of the murderer who killed the eldest prince and the third prince from Zhu Zhuyun.
He was actually Lu Yuan, the champion of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament two years ago!
Chapter 204 Assassination, the Star Luo Emperor's Resolve
Star Luo Palace
The current Star Luo Emperor angrily slammed his palm into the armrest of the golden throne, leaving a deep handprint. His entire body was now exuding an extremely terrifying aura.
At this moment, he was completely enraged, muttering to himself that this was outrageous.
"Dugu Bo and Lu Yuan are nothing more than a mere Title Douluo and a junior with some talent, yet they dare to show such contempt for my Star Luo Empire!"
"Damn it, they all deserve to die!"
The Star Luo royal family decided on the next emperor by raising Gu poison, but now all his sons are gone. This completely broke the Star Luo Emperor, who had been so confident and seemed to have the whole situation under control.
Now that he is already seventy years old, it is almost impossible for him to have another prince at this age, or even to engage in the traditional practice of raising Gu poison.
It can be said that Lu Yuan directly broke the royal tradition that had been passed down for many years in the Star Luo Empire. How could he not be angry? Especially since the other party even stole the divine breath that only appears once every five hundred years, which made the Star Luo Emperor even angrier and more resentful.
If it weren't for the Spirit Hall's interference, he would have loved to lead a million troops to intimidate the Heaven Dou Empire and force them to hand over the murderers who killed his two sons.
Although Poison Douluo is very intimidating, with a million soldiers, even Poison Douluo could not inflict devastating damage on him.
Even the Star Luo royal family is not without experts. Although they do not have a Super Douluo, they can still find ordinary titled experts.
Since Poison Douluo despises Star Luo so much, it's time to let the continent know what an empire really is!
Thinking of this, a pure killing intent flashed in the eyes of the Star Luo Emperor. With a wave of his hand, an old eunuch emerged from the dark corner.
"His Majesty!"
"The Empire has been supporting those guys for so long, it's time for them to do their part for the Empire. I want to see Dugu Bo and that Lu Yuan's heads placed in front of me before the election of the seven major sects of the Spirit Hall."
“If they cannot do it, I think the empire will no longer need to support them or their families in the future.”
"Notify the Star Crown Sect and ask them to send one person to assist them in completing the mission."
Both empires have many hidden sects. Although the number of hidden sects in the Star Luo Empire is far less than that in the Heaven Dou Empire, there are still a few sects with considerable strength.
The Star Crown Sect was one of them, and ten thousand years later, it directly seized power and became the ruler of the Star Luo Empire, even reducing the Dai family to a mere duke.
The fact that the Star Crown Martial Soul can be passed down for many years and even directly seize power to become the ruler of the Star Luo Empire in the future is enough to show the extraordinary nature of this Martial Soul.
The Star Crown Martial Soul lies between control and support, possessing not only extremely powerful crowd control but also decent support capabilities.
With the Star Luo Emperor ordering the Star Crown Sect to take action, it signifies the Star Luo Empire's determination to deploy all its top-tier combat forces and go all out to eliminate Lu Yuan and Dugu Bo.
After he finished speaking, the old eunuch disappeared silently once again.
"You may leave. Davis's death was due to his own lack of strength. In this world, only strength is the foundation of everything."
After doing all this, Emperor Xingluo finally turned his gaze to Zhu Zhuyun below.
His gaze was somewhat complicated, but after a long while he shook his head, showing no intention of making Zhu Zhuyun and Davis perish with him.
For an emperor, profit is everything, and since his son Davis is dead, he is completely worthless.
Since that's the case, there's no need to fall out with the Duke of the Underworld for a dead piece of trash; it's really not worth it.
"Your Majesty, you must avenge Weiss! Lu Yuan is simply provoking the entire Star Luo!"
"You must make that annoying guy pay the price!"
Zhu Zhuyun's gaze was earnest, her eyes blurred with tears.
It has to be said that women are the best actors. Even though she was already an undercover agent planted by Lu Yuan, her acting skills were so perfect that outsiders might really think that she was showing her true feelings.
"Rest assured, all those who provoke and despise Xingluo will pay the price!"
Emperor Xingluo looked at Zhu Zhuyun. Although his tone did not change much, his face became more gentle.
After leaving the palace, Zhu Zhuyun went straight back to the Zhu family home, where she took out a letter and wrote down what had happened that day.
She didn't know if anyone was watching her, but with the Zhu family's power and connections, they could naturally deliver the letter to Lu Yuan, who was far away in the Tiandou Empire, without anyone noticing.
Lu Yuan returned to Tiandou City in just one day after leaving the Echoing Plains.
Upon returning to Tiandou City, Lu Yuan immediately discovered that only Dugu Yan remained of the entire Dugu family.
Because the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex clan's territory needed to be renovated and repaired, Dugu Bo had already led a large number of members of the Yu clan on their journey.
Lu Yuan had only just returned to Tiandou City and hadn't even had a chance to rest when the Crown Prince's residence sent people over impatiently.
"Our Crown Prince is still so interested in you. If he weren't a man, I might really suspect that he has developed some interest in you."
"But even though he is the Crown Prince, Xue Qinghe seems to have had no children all these years. Could it be that he is unfortunate?"
Looking at the carriage sent by the Crown Prince's residence, Dugu Yan finally couldn't help but complain.
She had practically grown up with Lu Yuan since childhood, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she knew everything about how Crown Prince Xue Qinghe would frequently ask Lu Yuan to have a chat with him.
This time, they sent someone to invite him as soon as Lu Yuan returned.
She hadn't even had a proper chance to get to know him properly.
"This one?"
"He probably hasn't thought about having children yet. I'll go over and check on him. If everything's alright, I'll come back. You just stay home obediently."
Lu Yuan felt a little embarrassed listening to Dugu Yan's mutterings.
How could it be possible for Xue Qinghe to have a child now, after all, that was Qian Renxue?
Even if she really wanted offspring, someone would need to be able to touch her while under the watchful eyes of two Title Douluos.
Even if they could bypass the Serpent Spear Douluo and the Porcupine Douluo, they would then be facing Qian Daoliu, an almost invincible being on the continent.
After exchanging a few words with Dugu Yan, he boarded the Crown Prince's carriage and set off directly towards the Crown Prince's residence.
Although he didn't know why Qian Renxue wanted to see him, he had some guesses in his mind.
After all, it is said that Qian Renxue has completely taken control of the power of the Tiandou Empire, and it can be said that the physically weak Emperor Xueye has completely lost power.
Qian Renxue is now practically one step away from successfully seizing the country.
I owe you one chapter; I'm a bit sleepy after drinking.
Chapter 205 Qian Renxue: I will destroy the Haotian Sect!
Heavenly Dou City, Crown Prince's Residence!
Lu Yuan finally saw Qian Renxue, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
Having already seized most of the power in the Heaven Dou Empire, Qian Renxue no longer does things personally. Instead, she has moved behind the scenes, secretly controlling all the power in the Heaven Dou Empire.
Today, Qian Renxue is not only more beautiful than before, but also more dignified. Her phoenix eyes give people a sense of authority without anger just by glancing at them.
Her fair skin shimmered with a porcelain-white and holy light under the sunlight, captivating anyone who saw it.
"You came back and didn't even let me know you were safe. I had to ask someone to look for you."
"Do you even consider me a friend?!"
Upon seeing Lu Yuan walk in from outside, Qian Renxue's face immediately showed a hint of displeasure.
In Qian Renxue's view, she and Lu Yuan were the only two people on the continent who had the potential to become gods in the future, and they should have been the best partners and friends.
After learning that Lu Yuan had returned to Tian Dou City, she thought he would come to her door soon. However, after waiting day after day, she found that Lu Yuan had left Tian Dou City again, this time even going directly to the Star Luo Empire.
This made Qian Renxue feel like a clown, so ridiculous, as if she had a round, red nose.
"Uh, I've been so busy lately that I forgot."
I'll definitely be more careful next time.
"But you specifically asked someone to come here today, surely it couldn't be just for this one thing?"
Seeing the complaining look on Qian Renxue's face, Lu Yuan couldn't help but show a bit of embarrassment.
Lu Yuan had always regarded Qian Renxue as a like-minded friend. It was indeed a bit unfair of him to leave without even seeing her after returning to Tiandou City.
However, in Lu Yuan's opinion, it was impossible for Qian Renxue to send someone to summon him over such a trivial matter.
Therefore, there must be other things happening today, and he had some guesses as to what they might be.
"Hmph, seeing that your attitude is somewhat sincere, I'll let this matter drop for now."
"I do have a few other things I'd like to discuss with you today."
Qian Renxue's expression turned serious, and her tone became authoritative, as if she were discussing serious matters. As she spoke, the entire hall was immediately filled with a heavy sense of authority.
Having been high and mighty since childhood, and now secretly controlling the entire Tiandou City, it's perfectly normal for Qian Renxue to possess such an aura.
"Hmm, the fact that you've come to me for advice does pique my curiosity. If I'm not mistaken, you're already a Soul Saint!"
Lu Yuan could now sense that Qian Renxue's soul power was roughly the same as his own, so it was highly likely that her soul power was also around the Soul Saint level.
He had once heard Qian Renxue say that the six-winged angel descendants of the Qian family of the angel clan could generally begin the divine test at the Soul Saint level.
At this moment, there was a human-shaped angel pattern on Qian Renxue's forehead, which clearly indicated that she had successfully started the divine test.
That is the Nine Trials of the Angels, and they are destined to become angel gods in the future.
Given Qian Daoliu's status, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Qian Renxue is guaranteed to become a god.
Lu Yuan was genuinely curious about what Qian Renxue was discussing with him, and he spoke up at that moment.
Without further hesitation, Qian Renxue immediately told everything she wanted to say in detail.
"You mean that Emperor Xueye's body is completely failing now, and that you will soon become the true master of the Heaven Dou Empire."
"So, to prevent any disturbances, you want me to help you eliminate the hidden enemy."
"Even the reclusive Haotian Sect has obtained their exact address!"
When Lu Yuan spoke of the Clear Sky Sect, a hint of killing intent flashed in his eyes. Now that Tang San had returned to the Clear Sky Sect, this so-called number one sect in the world had inevitably become his enemy.
Since they are enemies, we should annihilate them with overwhelming force.
"Indeed, recently, because of Bibi Dong's decision to re-elect the seven major sects, the Haotian Sect seems to have lowered its guard somewhat."
