Princess goes to Find Daddy

"Daddy!!"

The petite girl with long lustrous hair cried out as she burst into the throne room. At this moment, only the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire, Dai Tianling, and his loyal subordinate, the Holy Dragon Douluo, En Ci was in there.

None of the guards of the throne room dared to stop this girl. They knew that if they did, their careers were over.

Dai Tianling was surprised at his daughter's sudden intrusion into the throne room as she ran into his arms. Noticing the state of his daughter, a dark expression appeared on his face before it was quickly hidden facing his daughter.

"Yun'er, what happened? Why are you crying?"

The girl, who was actually the most beloved princess of the Star Luo Empire, Dai Yun'er looked up in the arms of her father.

"Imperial Father, someone bullied me today! They even broke the arm of one of my guards!"

"WHAT!?!" shouted Dai Tianling in anger. However, knowing the mischievousness of his daughter, he quickly calmed down in order to know the real story before he took any action.

"Yun'er, can you explain how they bullied you?"

Dai Yun'er nodded her head with a pitiful expression on her face. She briefly described the situation that occurred previously, almost bursting out in tears once again as she did so.

A sigh emerged on Dai Tianling's lips. "Those guards of yours… they're really stupid." he said in exasperation. His expression quickly hardened again as he continued. "However, that doesn't mean that any random hilly-billy has the right to besmirch the authority of the kingdom. Yun'er, what does the person who injured your guard look like?"

Dai Tianling didn't really care about the guard since that guard was a complete idiot for attacking someone in broad daylight for no reason anyways. That was merely an excuse for him to help get justice for his daughter.

"He had really striking red hair and red eyes, Imperial Father! He's at least 186cm tall, has a muscular stature, and is very handsome!" Dai Yun'er said in one quick breath.

A weird expression appeared on Dai Tianling's face hearing how vivid his daughter was about that person. She usually didn't give a crap about the appearances of most people.

Just as Dai Tianling opened his mouth to answer, a sharp hiss was heard from En Ci, who was standing at the side.

"Is there anything wrong?" Dai Tianling asked as he instantly shifted his gaze towards En Ci. Anything that could cause a reaction from a Rank 98 Hyper Douluo surely couldn't be anything minor.

In a serious voice, En Ci spoke with a sigh, "Her description of that person sounds similar to what that man looked like…"

At those words, an expression of abject horror appeared on Dai Tianling's face. His face paled considerably as he turned his head back to look at Dai Yun'er with shock clearly on his face. "You mean the person who appeared yesterday?!"

"Yes. If it really is him, then you should count your blessings that he didn't outright incinerate her. Although I don't think that he's a match for me, I can say with certainty that I probably wouldn't be able to stop him from escaping if he wanted to."

Dai Yun'er, confused by their words, chose to speak up at this time. "Are we talking about the same person, the Imperial Father? It can't be right? He looks no older than I am."

One of Dai Tianling's eyebrows rose. "Then maybe it's a coincidence that they look similar?"

"It may be possible…" En Ci answered slowly.

Dai Tianling let out another sigh. "In any case, you should stay in the palace for the time being, Yun'er. The Green Skull Renegades are getting active again and now there's a renegade Titled Douluo on the loose."

"I understand, Imperial Father." answered Dai Yun'er with teary eyes.

"As for that boy, I'll send someone to investigate him for a bit. I want to see just what type of person dares to bully my Yun'er!"

Dai Yun'er burst out in a bright smile hearing this. "Hehe, thank you Imperial Father."

It was rather unfortunate that this group of people didn't understand that there were crouching tigers and hidden dragons in this world.

Two days passed in a flash. Everyone from Shrek Academy grew familiar with the city. On the third day, the Shrek Group was notified that the Emperor of Star Luo would receive the delegation that evening with a banquet following. They were advised to dress in their best for the event.

Huang Yu couldn't help but think of that girl he met three days ago when he was informed of this event by Wu Zhangkong. That girl should most likely be there since she was a princess after all.

Huang Yu wasn't worried about the Emperor doing anything. He wasn't in the wrong anyways and even if the Emperor was willing to ruin his own image and the relationship between the Star Luo Continent and Douluo Continent just for the sake of his daughter, Huang Yu was strong enough to sink the entire continent they were located on, so naturally, he didn't care.

Once evening fell, limousines pulled up to the front of the hotel to pick them up.

The Star Luo Imperial Palace stood in the centre of the city. As the Shrek Academy group arrived, trumpets sounded, playing the Empire's anthem. A red carpet rolled out of the palace to the entrance for the guests.

Huang Yu hummed a very fitting song whilst he strode down the red carpet with Gu Yue standing next to him like nobody's business.

Gu Yue had asked him what he was humming, and his reply to that was,

"It's a song perfect for an Imperial March."

Gu Yue was left very confused by Huang Yu's answer.

Unfortunately, the Shrek Academy group was asked to stop to wait for the anthem to finish before going for the banquet. Looking around, Huang Yu saw Tang Wulin sleeping, while standing up no less!

'I wish I knew how to do that back when I was in my old world…' Huang Yu grieved internally.

Huang Yu also saw Romario and Xiao Chen standing there. As the two of them sent him a discreet spiritual message, Huang Yu wanted to groan.

Those guys actually made a pool filled with highly toxic jellyfish spirit beasts and dumped those scrubs guarding that princess girl in it!

For fucks sake, they even wasted money to help those guys recover, just so that they could be dumped in it again another tens of times!

Maybe it wasn't such a great idea to ask his bishops to come to this place…

Huang Yu also spotted Dai Yun'er standing behind the Emperor. When their gazes met, Dai Yun'er scowled at him while he gave a wave in return.

The rest of the anthem was pretty boring, The only interesting part was when Tang Wulin suddenly woke up screaming murderer. Huang Yu had chuckled quite a bit at that as he saw Tang Wulin freak out.

Gu Yue, of course, had swiftly dodged each and every Bluesilver Emperor Tang Wulin released and arrived next to Huang Yu once more.

Tang Wulin was reprimanded for his actions a bit before the Emperor decided to 'graciously' forgive Tang Wulin.

Yeah, it wasn't like Dai Yun'er was the one who spiritually attacked him right? No siree!

At this moment, Dai Yun'er also took the chance to whisper something to the Dai Tianling. Raising an eyebrow, Dai Tianling shifted his gaze to look at Huang Yu.

Huang Yu definitely noticed this as he looked at the Emperor straight in the eyes. The Emperor couldn't help but feel slightly nauseous at this moment before he was forced to look away.

When he looked back, he saw Huang Yu with a smirk on his face. Dai Tianling didn't understand what had happened at this moment. Yet he could feel that every instinct in his body was screaming at him that the boy he was looking at was horribly dangerous!

What happened was actually very simple to explain. If you stare at the abyss, the abyss stares back at you.

And compared to Dai Tianling, Huang Yu's existence was truly like a bottomless abyss.

On a giant cliff, stood three tall figures who radiated powerful auras. Two of them were Di Tian and Bi Ji, while there was another man standing behind them.

"Xiong Jun!" Di Tian said imperiously.

Hearing this, the previously unnamed person, now known as Xiong Jun sneered. "What do you want, Di Tian?"

"That boy that her highness is so engrossed in, he's in this city."

A fierce gleam flashed in Xiong Jun's eyes. "Oh?"

"I want you to search for a chance where that boy isn't in the city nor near our king. When you do find one, kill him immediately. If you dare to play around with that boy, don't blame me for being ruthless towards you if our king finds out about this."

A snort left Xiong Jun's lips before he disappeared in a flash.

"Di Tian, are you sure that this is the right thing to do?" Bi Ji asked, standing next to Di Tian. "We came here in order to help her highness obtain the Dragon God's Core. Will she not be furious if she finds out all the things you're doing behind her back?"

Di Tian shifted his gaze towards her before it softened slightly. "Our king is merely confused because of her excessive contact with humans at this moment. As soon as her last connection towards humanity is severed, I believe that our king will return to normal and lead us to our salvation."

"What if Xiong Jun fails and the boy escapes, though? We still don't know that boy's true capabilities."

A laugh left the Beast God's lips. "There is no way that he could survive as long as Xiong Jun catches him alone. That bear may be foolish, but he's still at the level of a Limit Douluo. No matter what that boy has up his sleeve, he still cannot escape something like that without that spirit fusion that he could use with our king."

Bi Ji turned her head down and sighed. "If you say so…"
