"This is the capital of the Star Luo Empire, where all fighting among Soul Masters is strictly prohibited. Sir, surrender and come with us!"
Amidst the cold silence, words tinged with obvious wariness emanated from a dark aura. Then, a female Title Douluo with the Martial Soul of the Netherworld Cat slowly stepped forward, invoking the Star Luo Empire in an attempt to force Huo Yuhao to surrender.
After all, the White Tiger Clan and the Netherworld Cat Clan have been linked by marriage for generations. If she doesn't step in now, it will be embarrassing for both families in the future.
However, before she and the other Title Douluos could exchange glances, communicate, and then work together to capture the thug who dared to commit violence in Star Luo City, a sense of crisis suddenly arose.
Before she could instinctively disappear into the darkness and change her position, she was struck by Huo Yuhao's gaze, causing her to bleed from all seven orifices. Then, ice spread and froze her completely.
"Sorry, but who told you to be the Netherworld Cat and have the surname Zhu? Brother Evil Lord, Sister Snow Empress, Sister Ice Empress, Brother Titan, please help me."
As soon as he finished speaking, four figures, though their forms were illusory, none of them weaker than a Super Douluo, instantly burst out from Huo Yuhao's body, radiating their own auras and intimidating the other Title Douluos.
"Today, I am only here to address the White Tiger Duke's Mansion's violation of the Glazed Empire's prohibition by secretly attacking a transformed soul beast. If anyone disagrees... come and fight!"
The challenge resounded throughout the entire Star Luo Imperial Capital, igniting the fury of Emperor Xu within the Star Luo Imperial Palace, who clenched his fists.
After all, the Glazed Empire actually dared to arrest a duke from his Star Luo Empire! So next time, will they be able to arrest him too?
The emperor's anger at the perceived offense to the empire exceeded a certain threshold, causing him to glare down at the civil and military officials below with bloodshot eyes.
"My esteemed ministers, what should we do next? I don't need to say anything, do I?"
With a chilling tone and a fixed gaze on Dai Hao, who was looking down at his nose and inwardly lost in thought, even the White Tiger Duke, who commanded the imperial army, was second only to the emperor, and whose own level had already reached 95 Super Douluo, felt a chill.
He quickly knelt down and responded, then walked directly out of the council hall to personally capture the person who dared to challenge the imperial authority.
"One Super Douluo and four Title Douluos? The Star Luo Empire has also declined."
Amidst the shocked and angry gazes of the four Title Douluos surrounding the area, Huo Yuhao's soft whisper resounded throughout half of the ancient city.
With a smile, she turned around and looked at the beautiful woman in black who had finally emerged from the White Tiger Duke's mansion. Her figure and gait exuded elegance and nobility. She was tall, slender, and had a proud and graceful figure. Her noble demeanor was accompanied by a strong sense of fierceness.
"I never imagined that the little guy from back then would grow to this level. Does he think he's strong enough now and wants revenge?"
After carefully examining Huo Yuhao, the Duchess of Baihu, who saw in him some of the shadows of her husband and that hateful woman, felt a surge of anger again, but her expression remained impassive.
Ignoring the two children who were already double-injured, and ignoring the Netherworld Cat Girl, a titled Douluo who might be her older sister or aunt, she was completely oblivious.
The Duchess of White Tiger glanced at the shattered plaque of the White Tiger Duke's mansion at her feet, shook her head slightly, and then looked at Huo Yuhao, saying with a hint of regret.
"I really misjudged you back then. I thought that even with your original martial soul, you wouldn't go very far given your inherent flaws, but now..."
"However, you really shouldn't have come now..."
"But I still came, didn't I? And this time, I didn't come just for personal revenge. You sent people to capture those transformed soul beasts for these two good-for-nothings, right? To be honest, that's even more suicidal than going to the Star Dou Great Forest now."
Looking at his mother, who had devoted herself to her two sons, Huo Yuhao just wanted to have a good laugh. After all, let's not even talk about how much power those dozen or so transformed soul beasts could unleash when they were fighting desperately.
Take the method of creating a new dimension to live in, for example. I have only experienced it in the hands of the Emperor. From this, I can see what kind of power exists behind that group of transformed soul beasts.
And now, the White Tiger Duke's mansion has actually provoked such a terrifying being, it's truly...
"Heaven's sins may be forgiven, but self-inflicted sins are unforgivable! Your biggest mistake was reaching out to them. I'm giving you two a chance to use your Martial Soul Fusion Technique! Whether you kill me outright or severely injure me, it's a small compensation for severing ties with you!"
"Of course, if you're too weak, so weak that even I can't handle you, I'll point you in the right direction: go to the Glazed Empire and commit suicide. That should save your two stupid sons."
Although he was speaking to Duchess Baihu, his gaze was fixed on Duke Baihu, his biological father, Dai Hao, who had just entered the room.
"Yuhao, you..."
"Enough! I told you, use your Martial Soul Fusion Technique! Otherwise..."
The golden vertical eye between his brows opened, and his azure eyes shone brightly. His soul bone divine armor appeared on his body, and together with the four-word battle armor that had been forged and nurtured for many years, Huo Yuhao's aura was pushed to the limit of the Douluo realm.
Among the seven crimson streaks, the golden interwoven spirit rings gradually solidified from the ethereal. Then, with the seventh spirit ring as the main body, they began to merge with each other. When only a pale gold white gold spirit ring remained behind Huo Yuhao, Dai Hao and his wife, who had already both become Super Douluo, also felt a deadly crisis emanating from Huo Yuhao.
"Come, fight me!"
With icy blue mist rising from his palms, he made a simple stance and then looked at Dai Hao and Duchess Baihu with utmost seriousness.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he was humiliated by a son he had never met before. His wife's gaze, the serious injuries of his two sons, and the emperor's clear hints finally made this seasoned commander-in-chief make up his mind.
After exchanging a glance, the couple, who had grown up together and were childhood sweethearts, instantly came together. Then, the White Tiger Martial Soul merged with the Netherworld Cat, and a Netherworld White Tiger with an aura no weaker than Huo Yuhao's at this moment roared out from a rain of light and rushed towards Huo Yuhao, who was calm at the moment.
"Very well, after this day, all grudges will be forgotten..."
"Longing is useless, only separation is possible; if the date of separation is fixed, what is a thousand kinds of torment? Do not say that the soul is broken, for there is always light at the end of the tunnel."
"The Heart-Rending Palm..."
