Chapter 8 Domineering Protection of Her Husband! Capturing the Empress, Reward: The Number 1 Beast Martial Soul in the World!!_1

Outside Pope Hall, the Silver Armor Soul King didn't dare to act rashly, standing there waiting respectfully.

Luo Yu, however, started to stroll around, admiring the surroundings, nodding from time to time.

His hands weren't idle either, rubbing the fluffy ears of the Soft Bone Charming Rabbit.

Little did he know that the rabbit's pink eyes were already muddled with emotion, covered in a layer of mist, and her pearly teeth were biting her thin lips.

'Is my benefactor really treating Da Wu as a pet, or is he deliberately teasing...'

Da Wu was now feeling incredibly shy, with a tingling sensation continuously surging through her heart, a little conflicted but not daring to voice any objections, only able to scold coyly in her mind.

'Benefactor, don't keep touching my rabbit ears, it's too sensitive there. Why don't you touch somewhere else!'

Da Wu tried to move, adjusting her position, but Luo Yu's fingers gripped her ears firmly and continued without letting go.

The Soft Bone Charming Rabbit's pink eyes were almost dripping water, and she eventually gave up struggling.

'Forget it... it's just ears~'

'If my benefactor wants to touch, let him touch.'

'Da Wu can bear with it...'

'It feels weird and bashful, but it seems kind of comfortable...'

Luo Yu continued to enjoy himself here.

On the other hand, the Silver Armor Soul King felt completely out of sorts.

Watching Luo Yu leisurely stroll around, he subconsciously touched his face that had swollen up like a pig's head, and a look of malice flashed through his eyes as he couldn't help saying sarcastically:

"This is Pope Hall! Do you know nothing of the rules, strolling around like that, acting like this place is your own backyard?"

Luo Yu paused in his tracks, took a glance at him with a sidelong look, and smiled.

"Are you—"

"Teaching me how to conduct myself?"

"Ah!!!"

Luo Yu's dismissive gaze, haughty demeanor, and contemptuous tone.

Nearly drove the Silver Armor Soul King mad!

He trembled with rage, his face contorting menacingly: "Not even Martial Soul Hall is in your eyes, you've truly gone too far!!"

Luo Yu yawned, "Don't overthink it, Martial Soul Hall is fine, it's just you personally that I look down upon."

"You're presumptuous!"

The Silver Armor Soul King felt his sanity explode, fury burning in his heart, his rationality fading.

"It's 'presumptuous', not 'presumptuous'!" Luo Yu slowly corrected, "If there's a draft coming through your teeth, talk less!!"

"With your mouth shut, no one would know you're toothless."

"Ah!! You're the shameless one." The Silver Armor Soul King's eyes bloodshot, his lips quivering with anger, his five rings surging forth as the Fierce Tiger Martial Soul enveloped his body.

"Sigh." Luo Yu sighed and shook his head, "Do you know what's written on your face right now?"

The Silver Armor Soul King touched his face and then snickered repeatedly, "Do you really think I'm stupid? There's clearly nothing there."

"No, there are clearly five characters written."

Luo Yu affirmed, nodding, saying word by word: "Begging for abuse, begging for a lesson!"

"You're courting death!!" The Silver Armor Soul King was livid.

Luo Yu beckoned with a hook of his finger, his eyes growing colder.

"Honestly, if you charge at me now, I'd count you as a real man, only daring to rant and not to act, what are you, really?"

The venomous Silver Armor Soul King roared: "Brat, don't be too arrogant, when my uncle comes out, your death will be upon you, I can already hear your pitiful wails and screams before you die, hahaha."

Luo Yu sighed, "Poor child, perhaps, what you're hearing is your own screams."

The Silver Armor Soul King revealed a ruthlessly confident smile, "Boy, make it clear whose turf this is, let's wait and see who lives and who dies!"

"Swoosh!"

Palas, with his eight rings, came whistling over, arriving in an instant.

The Silver Armor Soul King quickly asked, "How did it go, Uncle?"

Palas smiled cruelly, "What problem could there be when I personally take action? Her Majesty the Empress is in a thunderous rage, this brat can go to his death."

The Silver Armor Soul King rubbed his hands together, "Hehe, boy, your time to die has come."

"Oh?" Luo Yu raised an eyebrow.

With a fierce expression on his aged face, Palas's vast Soul Power roared, "Still putting on airs at the brink of death, the Empress must not be insulted, come with me at once to meet your doom!"

"Weren't you supposed to say good things about me?" Luo Yu said in surprise.

"Foolish boy, did you really believe that? You dare to clash with me, to strike my nephew, no matter what your background is, how could I let you live in this world?"

"Now, I shall personally capture you and bring you before Her Majesty the Empress to face death!"

"Boom!"

Palas's palm was covered with blue scales, bringing a fishy wind straight at Luo Yu's throat.

"Die, you arrogant fool!" The Silver Armor Soul King watched with exceptional schadenfreude and excitement.

Palas reached Luo Yu.

Just as he thought he was about to succeed, a huge pink Domain suddenly enveloped the entire area, directly shattering his Soul Power, immobilizing his figure firmly.

The smile on the Silver Armor Soul King's face froze, and he stood there stupefied.

"How... how is this possible?" Palas's face showed horror; he struggled fiercely but it was futile.

What just happened? He was a Soul Douluo, a powerful being. Why was he suddenly like meat on the chopping board, at the mercy of someone else?

Luo Yu's eyes lost their playful glint, revealing a cold hue.

"Slap!"

With a raised palm, he slapped the ghastly, astonished old face repeatedly, producing crisp sounds.

"Did you think you were so clever?"

"Do you think everyone should just be manipulated by you, waiting for your applause?"

"How do you feel now, is it fun?"

The Silver Armor Soul King collapsed to his knees on the ground, his eyes void, "Impossible, it can't be possible!"

Luo Yu couldn't hide the disgust in his eyes.

If it had been someone else, they would have certainly been played to death by these two scoundrels.

"Swoosh!"

A sudden wind arose as the elegant and noble silhouette of the Empress approached from the sky.

Her golden tight-fitting dress wrapped around her graceful and perfect figure, her slender long legs in high-heeled boots studded with jewels, her impeccable face of beauty filled with endless majesty.

"Clack, clack, clack!"

Empress Bibi Dong walked toward him, her shapely and slender legs moving gracefully with each step.

"Kid, the Empress is here," she said, "Let's see how arrogant you can be now."

"Your majesty, please save me!" Palas cried out desperately as if he had seen his savior.

But Bibi Dong did not look at him, her phoenix eyes firmly fixed on Luo Yu.

The Silver Armor Soul King came crawling and tumbling over, wailing, "Your majesty, this man is outrageously bold. He not only showed contempt for the Martial Soul Hall but also used profanities to belittle you. He deserves to die a thousand times over!"

"Get lost!"

Bibi Dong's brows came together as she produced a purple light in her palm.

"Bang!"

With a scream, the Silver Armor Soul King turned charred and was blasted away.

The Empress's gaze never left Luo Yu, completely indifferent to everything else.

She came close to Luo Yu, her delicate body beginning to tremble.

"Your majesty, you hit the wrong person," he pleaded, "It's this kid who has been verbally insulting you non-stop."

Bibi Dong ignored him, her eyes fixed solely on Luo Yu as she parted her lips to ask, "What's the matter?"

Luo Yu thought seriously for a moment, then spread his hands and replied, "Nothing much, I just said you were my wife and he didn't believe me, so he wanted me dead."

"How dare you! You're insolent! How could you insult her majesty?" Palas roared in anger.

"Boom!"

"You're the one being insolent!"

Bibi Dong turned her head with a cold voice of rebuke as the Spider Emperor Soul Shadow appeared instantly, bringing an overwhelming presence and a dense aura of murder aimed straight at Palas.

Palas began to tremble, almost scared out of his wits.

What... what's going on here, where did things go wrong?

He felt like crying.

Your majesty, whose side are you on?

Luo Yu smiled slightly, "Palas, you like to tattle, please continue your performance."

Palas's gums bled from biting too hard, "Your majesty, this kid is insulting you, didn't you hear it?"

The Empress glanced coldly at him, "I'm pleased by it! What concern is it of yours?"

"This... this man is a madman," Palas said, his voice trembling as he forced himself to speak.

The Empress's expression turned stern, her majestic presence fully revealed. "This is my man. Are you worthy to talk about him?"

"What???"

Palas's eyes bulged, almost shocked to death.

It couldn't be, it's impossible. How could the high and mighty Empress have anything to do with this kid?

The Empress is known for shunning men, how could she possibly fancy this guy? It made no sense.

"Thump!"

In his shock, Palas was hit by an energy blast and sent flying with blood mist bursting from his veins—an extremely gruesome sight.

And the one who made the move was none other than the Empress he'd always relied upon.

"Sigh."

"Self-inflicted, cannot live," Luo Yu shook his head. Why bother?

Only man and woman were left in the area. The man's appearance was divine, like a banished immortal joining the mortal world, and the woman's beauty was ethereal, an icy queen with an imposing presence.

Handsome young man and beautiful lady, eyes met eyes.

Bibi Dong's amber-like eyes misted over, gazing at Luo Yu foolishly.

She reached out to touch the man's face, then hesitated and pulled back, shy like a girl with a budding crush.

"You stinky man, you've finally deigned to return," she said.

Luo Yu shook his head with a smile, "Didn't I tell you before that I was going to transcend calamity?"

"You've changed," Bibi Dong shed her aloofness and royal demeanor, becoming gentle like a warm stream, turning into a charming lady.

"Changed where?" Luo Yu asked with a gentle smile.

Bibi Dong's cheeks flushed, her eyes twinkling,"You seem handsomer and more alluring."

"Tsk, tsk, I can hardly take such praise from the great Empress," Luo Yu teased.

At Luo Yu's jest, Bibi Dong spat lightly, "Who's the Empress? Don't tease me. With you, I'm forever Dong'er in need of your protection."

"Tsk, tsk, if these words got out," Luo Yu mused, "I fear I'd have to face the knives of too many jealous ones."

Bibi Dong pouted her red lips, "With your strength, who could be your match?"

Luo Yu spread his hands, "Right now, I don't really have any strength."

"What's going on?" Bibi Dong's expression changed instantly as she moved closer, her hand gripping the man's wrist anxiously.

The smooth and cool touch of her hand sent Luo Yu's thoughts adrift.

For Bibi Dong, too, her cheeks blushed with shyness. All these years, Luo Yu was the only man who had touched her.

"Your cultivation level, where is it?"

Luo Yu shook his head, "It's a long story. All in all, it's not a big problem. It's a good thing to break and then stand."

"Then I can protect you in the future!"

"Whoever dares to bully my man! I will take his damned life!!" Bibi Dong's voice turned cold and full of murderous intent as she spoke.

"Who's your man, don't claim people randomly," Luo Yu raised an eyebrow.

Bibi Dong paused, then stubbornly pouted her lips, "You promised me back then, to let me be your fiancée, and you just said it again."

"That was someone in your hall spinning lies," Luo Yu flatly denied.

"You're being unreasonable!" "I clearly heard it."

Bibi Dong pouted her red lips, her charmingly petulant appearance was breathtakingly beautiful, intoxicating to one's heart and mind, but it was a view only Luo Yu could appreciate.

Luo Yu just smiled, without a word.

Bibi Dong summoned her courage and boldly took the man's hand, declaring defiantly, "I don't care, now that you're back, I'm your fiancée!"

At that moment, following Bibi Dong's confession, a series of notifications sounded in Luo Yu's mind.

[Ding! Empress Bibi Dong's fondness for the host has reached 100.]

[Ding! The host has successfully captured the Empress's heart.]

[Current mission progress: 100%.]]

[Mission Reward, True World's Number One Beast Martial Soul: Ancestor of Ten Thousand Dragons, Dragon God!!]]

However, the system notification was far from over…
