Chapter 2388: Forget about Xu Sheng_1
Dai Yueyan pursed his lips, "It seems that the Imperial Tutor believes that we should support Soul Land, a thought coincidentally aligned with my own. So, what are your opinions, gentlemen?"
To his surprise, these ministers, who usually flattered and fawned on him, were extremely agitated, "No, I disagree. Our Xingluo Empire can safeguard itself completely. Even if Soul Land is destroyed by the Abyssal Creature Army, it will definitely weaken them indirectly!"
"Exactly, our Xingluo Empire should rather sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, waiting for Soul Land to be on the brink of collapse before we strike and deal with the Abyssal Creature Army, and then march toward the Douling Empire!"
"Correct, then the Xingluo Empire will unify the Continent and become the sole empire!"
Dai Yueyan ignored them and said, "It seems the Daijin have no objections. Therefore, Imperial Tutor, the matter of supporting Soul Land will be entrusted to you."
In the entire Xingluo Empire, apart from his own sister, Dai Yun'er, as well as the Ultimate Douluo always by his side—
only the present Imperial Tutor was the most trustworthy!
At these words, all the ministers were dumbstruck...
What did he mean by no objections?
Hadn't they just voiced so much, and had His Majesty the Emperor not heard them clearly?
One of the ministers, taking a risk, spoke up again, "That is, Your Majesty, I..."
"Hmm?"
The chilly gaze of Dai Yueyan swept over, immediately chilling the man to the bone...
Without any hesitation, he changed his tune, "I... I have no objections. Surely the other ministers must agree too, right... right?"
The other ministers quickly realized what was happening, "Right, right, right, since Your Majesty has decided to support Soul Land, then we, your ministers, naturally look only to your lead!"
"Anyone who opposes is questioning Your Majesty's decision, and deserves a thousand deaths!"
"Your Majesty's vision far surpasses ours and will certainly make the right choices!"
En Ci, seeing the ministers change their stance faster than flipping a page, couldn't help but reveal a hint of mockery on his face...
If it wasn't for still needing these ministers to manage various parts of the empire, perhaps they would have already been executed!
Only then did Dai Yueyan wave his hand, "Gentlemen, you may withdraw. Imperial Tutor, stay behind. I have other matters to discuss with you."
Soon, the ministers tactfully left the palace, fearing to provoke the former's wrath...
En Ci, with a tone of doubt, said, "Your Majesty, is there anything else you wish to command?"
Dai Yueyan nodded, "Yes, when the Imperial Tutor dispatches the reinforcements, you must pass on the information about the Holy Spirit Cult's Evil Soul Master!"
En Ci instantly understood the former's meaning, "Are you worried that the Holy Spirit Cult will make trouble from within?"
Dai Yueyan did not deny, "Correct. Apart from you and me, the entire Xingluo Empire, even the other two great empires, believe the Holy Spirit Cult has been eradicated!"
"But in fact, they are still active on the Douluo Continent, and that they have been quiet for so long, I fear they are brewing a huge conspiracy!"
I even suspect that the Abyssal Creature Army's invasion of Soul Land might be part of their plan!
En Ci responded, "I understand, Your Majesty. I will convey this message to the federation."
Just then, a light, spirited voice came from outside...
"Brother, may I come in?"
Although it was a question, Dai Yun'er had already entered into the palace...
"Your Majesty, then I will take my leave."
Seeing this, En Ci gestured to Dai Yun'er before turning to leave...
Dai Yueyan then turned to look at Dai Yun'er, puzzled, "Yun'er, what brings you here today?"
Dai Yun'er did not hide her reason, "I heard that several defensive lines established by the federation have been destroyed by the Abyssal Creature Army, so..."
Dai Yueyan, of course, saw through her purpose, "You are worried about the people from Shrek Academy?"
It seems, indeed, that Shrek Academy's treatment of Yun'er was quite good...
Dai Yun'er's cheeks were somewhat burning hot, "Mm, after all, they took me in..."
She was grateful to the people of Shrek Academy, but what worried her most was still...
Dai Yueyan spoke with a serious expression, "Since you're here, it's good to mention that Shrek Academy has been destroyed, and now only a small number of students and Elders of the Sea God Pavilion survive!"
Hearing this, Dai Yun'er exclaimed, "What? How is that possible? Shrek Academy had the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion in place, how could it be destroyed!"
Dai Yueyan sighed, "It was the doing of the Holy Spirit Cult's Evil Soul Master. At that time, the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion had already gone to the Blood God Army's garrison to combat the Abyssal Creature Army, leaving the academy undefended!"
When he had found out, he too found it somewhat unbelievable!
But after thinking about those powerful Abyssal Emperors, he quickly accepted it!
Dai Yun'er pressed again, "Brother, Xu Sheng is fine, right?"
Dai Yueyan paused, "Xu Sheng? Isn't that the man you confessed to at the Sea God's Matchmaking Festival?"
"Unfortunately, he too perished at the hands of the Abyssal Emperor!"
He hadn't expected that Yun'er would still be thinking about that man!
So many years had already passed...
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "Father, you shouldn't have allowed that man to come and teach Yun'er!"
In the blink of an eye, Dai Yun'er's expression turned haggard, and she murmured dumbly, "How... how could this be, Xu Sheng's strength, it was clearly not weaker than that of an Ultimate Douluo!"
In her eyes, Xu Sheng was the strongest!
Dai Yueyan gently rubbed her head with a touch of heartache, comforting her, "Yun'er, that man is already dead, forget him."
"Besides, our Xingluo Empire has so many excellent Soul Masters, all at your disposal to choose from!"
Even if they were unwilling, as the Emperor of Xingluo Empire, he would use every means to make them willing!
Dai Yun'er forced a smile, "Brother, I... I'm feeling a little unwell, I'll be leaving first!"
After speaking, she left the palace with a look of despair...
An Ultimate Douluo materialized beside him, inquiring, "Your Majesty, do you need me to..."
Dai Yueyan dismissed his offer, "No need, Yun'er has grown up; she won't do anything so childish."
Perhaps, this matter would also lead to some growth for Yun'er!
...
Inside the luxurious private room!
Unable to hold back, Ye Xinglan immediately expressed her dissatisfaction...
"Xie Xie, Zheng Yu, and Xiao Yan, why have you not mentioned anything about Wulin since you returned, it's been driving me crazy!"
Xu Lizhi echoed, "Yeah, what exactly happened?"
Even Yuanen Yehui, lying on the bed, appeared very curious...
Yue Zhengyu pursed his lips, "When I arrived, Wulin was already with Xie Xie, I'm not clear about the specifics!"
Xu Xiaoyan shrugged her shoulders, "Don't look at me, I have no idea either!"
This was when Xie Xie cleared his throat, "Ahem, let your lord here explain to you all!"
"Actually, the reason Wulin was able to survive is largely thanks to me!"
After speaking, his face brimmed with an "I'm waiting for praise" expression...
