Several days later, Dai Yueyan and the adjacent Ultimate Douluo finally broke through the Array and returned to the Xingluo Empire Palace...
Seeing his appearance, the leading Daijin smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, you finally came back!"
The others also did not hide the look of concern on their faces...
Dai Yueyan glanced at them and asked in confusion, "I only left for a few days. Why do all the Daijins look so terrible? Has something happened?"
Upon hearing this, the Daijins looked at each other with a mutual understanding of helplessness in their eyes...
They all promptly said, "Your Majesty the Emperor, the thing is, after you left that day, the representatives of the three major powers felt extremely dissatisfied. They waited for several days, but you still did not show up."
"Therefore, in a fit of extreme anger, the federation decided to declare war on our Star Luo Empire!"
"While the other powers did not say much, their hostility was clearly more pronounced!"
"Your Majesty, the most important thing now is that the federation has already gathered a considerable number of Soul Masters and Soul Instructors, and they are about to launch an attack on the Xingluo Empire soon. Should we also summon our army and prepare for battle?"
"Hmph, if they want to fight, then we'll fight. Is our Star Luo Empire afraid of them?"
If it were all the powers of Soul Land jointly attacking the Star Luo Empire, the outcome would undoubtedly be clear!
But with only the federation and without the use of God-killing soul-guided missiles, the Xingluo Empire still had a chance to fight!
Dai Yueyan shook his head resolutely, dismissing those suggestions, "No, there's definitely a misunderstanding here, we can't fall for the Holy Spirit Cult's Evil Soul Master's trap!"
Damn it, who would have thought that in just a short time away, such a huge debacle would arise!
After calming down for a few seconds, he then said, "Now, immediately summon the Super Douluo level powerhouses within the Xingluo Empire, as I have important matters to declare to them!"
Soon enough, all of the high-end martial power of the entire Xingluo Empire gathered in the great hall...
Seeing these powerhouses nod slightly, they respectfully said, "Your Majesty the Emperor!"
Dai Yueyan spoke softly, "No need for formalities, to turn danger into safety, the Xingluo Empire shall need the help of all present here!"
"Your Majesty the Emperor, please speak, guarding the Xingluo Empire is the duty of all of us!"
The speaker was none other than the Imperial Tutor of the Xingluo Empire, the Dean of Monster Academy, and also the strongest individual in the Xingluo Empire!
The Saint Dragon Spirit, En Ci!
Dai Yueyan nodded and seriously said, "All right, I'll get straight to the point. Due to the Holy Spirit Cult's Evil Soul Master attacking a federation team in one of the cities within the Xingluo Empire, the relationship between the two has deteriorated, and war is about to break out."
"For this reason, I hope that you all lead our forces to defend the cities of the Xingluo Empire, but do not initiate any conflict with the federation's teams on your own!"
"At the same time, the royal household will negotiate with the federation and try to end this farce as soon as possible!"
Upon hearing this, the powerhouses began to speak one after another, "We understand now. We'll take care of this matter, Your Majesty!"
"As long as the federation does not initiate an attack, neither will we. However, if they do, they will have to taste some hardship and see who owns this territory!"
"You are right. The Xingluo Empire does not fear war; we just don't want unnecessary sacrifices!"
Dai Yueyan let out a sigh of relief, "Good. Now, Your Excellency Saint Dragon, please stay for a moment while the rest of you go and prepare."
After the Super Douluo level powerhouses had left, Dai Yueyan then turned his attention to En Ci, "Dean, it's been a long time since we've seen each other!"
For this Dean, who once was a student at Monster Academy, he naturally maintained an attitude of deep respect!
En Ci stroked his speckled beard, "Yes, it's been quite some time since you and Yun'er left Monster Academy, indeed a long time without a meeting!"
Seeing this, Dai Yueyan said once more, "Please take a seat first..."
Without any pretense, En Ci immediately sat down in the adjacent chair...
It could be said that in the entire Xingluo Empire, only he could sit on equal terms with His Majesty the Emperor!
Dai Yueyan asked curiously, "President, do you have any idea how Long Yue is doing now?"
En Ci pondered for a moment before replying, "That boy Long Yue has always been devoted to training at the Monster Academy. I'm afraid... it won't be long before he breaks through to Titled Douluo!"
As his favorite disciple, Long Yue's talent was naturally exceptional!
Dai Yueyan remarked with emotion, "I see, that really fits Long Yue's character."
En Ci seemed to have thought of something and calmly spoke, "Your Majesty, may I ask how you plan to ease the crisis the Xingluo Empire faces this time?"
Dai Yueyan pursed his lips, "President, you can just call me by my name."
It was in the court that the other party addressed him as Your Majesty to give him full respect.
But now, with just the two of them, there was no need for such formalities!
En Ci did not refuse and said, "If that's the case, then I will call you as I used to."
Only after that did Dai Yueyan begin to say, "I plan to personally go to the federation and clear up this misunderstanding."
Because he hadn't appeared in person before, it was likely that all major powers thought that the Xingluo Empire's Emperor had become a puppet of the Holy Spirit Cult!
No sooner had he spoken than En Ci rebuffed him...
"No, even with an Ultimate Douluo strong enough to protect you by your side, once the Holy Spirit Cult sets their sights on you, it's still very dangerous!"
Especially that Demon Emperor, an ordinary Ultimate Douluo would not be able to stop him if he took action personally!
Dai Yueyan clenched his teeth, "But, there are no other options available!"
Aside from going to the federation in person to negotiate, he could not think of any other way to stop the war!
En Ci's voice was soft and soothing as he comforted, "Yue Yan, you don't have to worry too much. Even if the federation launches an attack, it will just be minor skirmishes to vent their dissatisfaction."
"I have my ways of dealing with this matter!"
...
The Federation!
Upon receiving the news that Dai Yueyan had summoned all the strong ones of the Star Luo Empire, many high-ranking officials showed rather ugly expressions.
"Damn it, the Xingluo Empire has actually gathered all the strong ones from the whole empire. Are they really intending to fight to the death with our federation?"
"I said before that going to war to express dissatisfaction will only cause unnecessary trouble!"
"So what do we do now? We've already declared war on the Xingluo Empire! We can't possibly go begging for forgiveness now, can we?"
"Damn this Xingluo Empire's Emperor, all he had to do was offer an apology and a gesture of regret to end this. Does he really want to start a war?"
The man in charge swept a cold gaze over them and scolded, "What a bunch of trash, when has the federation had such spineless cowards?"
It appeared that it was time to clean up the federation's upper echelons!
Just as tensions rose, a federation soldier suddenly burst in, his face full of panic as he reported, "Report, gentlemen, Elder Xu from the Sea God's Pavilion has come again!"
The man in charge's expression darkened, "Elder Xu from the Sea God's Pavilion? What's he doing here now?"
They were all still angry about the theft of the Life Force and Destruction Force from the last time!
