Chapter 170: The Star Luo Emperor Loses His Composure, What Sin Has He Committed_1
Xingluo Empire.
Within the imperial palace.
The Star Luo Emperor was uncontrollably furious, "Useless, all useless! So many assassins entered the palace, and not a single one was captured?"
"Your Majesty, please calm your anger."
"Yes, Your Majesty, it's not that we're too weak, it's that the enemy is too powerful."
"..."
At the lower head of the table, the ministers were in disarray.
"Forget it, relying on you, I might not even know how I'd die."
The temper was out, but the Star Luo Emperor gradually calmed down.
"You don't know who the assailant is, but I know.
"Among the assassins a few days ago, there were at least five or six strong members of the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan."
"You say, what should we do now?"
After saying these words, the Star Luo Emperor looked at the ministers in the great hall and fell silent.
In response, his words caused quite a stir.
"Who? The Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan?"
"Aren't they neutral? How did we anger them?"
"Isn't this just misfortunes piling up?"
'...'
For a moment, exclamations echoed one after another.
They all knew that the Xingluo Empire had provoked a formidable enemy and lost many strong warriors. Now they were targeted by a powerful force like the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan, how could there be any good outcome?
Such misfortune.
"Silence!"
The Star Luo Emperor grew even more irate, "Will panicking solve the problem?"
The hall became quiet once again.
After a short while, someone finally spoke.
"Your Majesty, I believe we should first communicate with the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan to see where the problem lies. Then, resolve it..."
"I also think... "
"What this colleague says makes sense..."
As these words were spoken, many began to reconsider.
Communicate, solve the problem, isn't this just wanting to beg for peace? The Star Luo Emperor's eyes flickered with angry flames, "Enough! Does your emperor need to consult you to beg for peace?"
The crowd: "..."
In fact, the ministers were speechless.
They thought the Star Luo Emperor wanted to beg for peace but couldn't lose face, expecting someone else to voice this proposition to give himself a way out.
"Your Majesty, now that the Xingluo Empire is facing strong enemies from outside, we no longer have the strength to deal with the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan. At this point, only if the Hao Tian Clan that supports our Xingluo Empire takes action can we thoroughly resolve the issue."
Another minister suggested.
Hao Tian Clan, but they haven't paid any attention to me... The Star Luo Emperor fell silent for a long time before asking, "Then, is there any other way?"
No one among the seated ministers could answer.
An answer my hammer, when we're outmatched, lack strong allies, and don't want to concede, isn't this just being stubborn?
The Xingluo Empire seemed to be on the brink.
"Alas."
A long time later, the Star Luo Emperor slowly sat down on the throne. At this moment, he seemed to have aged ten years...
"Who is willing to take a trip to the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan? I want to know why they resorted to assassination."
"I am willing..."
"I am also willing."
....
Half a month later.
The envoy returned with a message.
"The Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan has sworn to be at odds with the Star Luo Royal Family, refusing any form of reconciliation."
When the Star Luo Emperor heard this message, he was completely broken.
"Truly, what a catastrophe!"
"What kind of grudge is this that they want to be irreconcilable with my Dai family?"
He racked his brains but couldn't understand what was happening.
"Father, what should we do now?"
The once prince, now Crown Prince Davis of Star Luo, asked cautiously.
"What can we do?"
After a long time, the Star Luo Emperor sighed, "Prepare to leave the Imperial Capital of Star Luo at any time. This place is no longer safe."
...
Five months later.
The Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan.
"Grandfather, now that more than half of our clan's disciples have been killed or injured, do you still plan to attack the Star Luo Royal Family?"
Yu Tianxin approached Yu Luomian with a solemn expression and asked.
"Tianxin, once it has started, there is no turning back."
Yu Luomian let out a long sigh.
In fact, what he meant by starting wasn't that he ordered the attack on the Star Luo Royal Family. It was from the moment Yu Xiaofeng decided to help Yu Tianheng, there was no turning back.
"However, the price to fight the Star Luo Royal Family to the bitter end with our power is so great that I can hardly bear it."
What surprised Yu Luomian was the strength of the Star Luo Royal Family was still formidable.
The Hell White Tiger, with the support of the Star Crown, was not an opponent he could face. Although the Star Luo Royal Family didn't have many powerful individuals, they still possessed a considerable number of Soul Masters.
If Yu Yuanzhen had not died, if Qin Xiao hadn't slain hundreds of disciples from the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan, their battle with the Star Luo Royal Family would have been easy...
Alas, there are no ifs.
"Grandfather, then you still say there is no stopping now..."
Yu Tianxin did not understand.
"What grandfather finds difficult to achieve, doesn't mean that no one else can."
After listening to Yu Luomian's words, Yu Tianxin had a vague sense of his intentions, "Grandfather, are you saying we need to find help?"
"Exactly."
Yu Luomian nodded heavily, speaking with a hint of resignation, "Indeed, I plan to ask your aunt to take action."
"My aunt?"
Yu Tianxin was stunned.
If Yu Luomian, a true Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan Soul Douluo couldn't solve the problem, what use would there be in enlisting Liu Erlong, a variant fiery dragon?
However, Yu Luomian clearly didn't intend to seek Yu Tianxin's opinion, leaving only the words, "In my absence these days, you take charge of the sect," before he vanished.
...
Time flies.
Nine months later.
The Hao Tian Clan.
"Hahaha, I did it, I, Tang Chen, did it!"
As laughter burst forth, a red light shot out of the cave and hovered above the ruins of the entrance to the Hao Tian Clan's mountain.
His crimson cape whirled chaotically behind him.
