Chapter 37: The Frustrated Xingluo Royal Family



In a mansion of the imperial palace in the Xingluo Empire, Davis and Zhu Zhuyun were waiting for news. Several days had passed since the strong men they had sent out before, but there was no news.

"Reporting to His Highness, something terrible has happened. The White Tiger Guards and Elder Zhu Chang of the Netherworld Duke's Mansion have all been killed."

At this moment, an old man brought explosive news, which stunned Davis and Zhu Zhuyun.

"What? The whole army was wiped out?"

"Two Soul Emperors and four Soul Kings are gone just like that. How did they die?" Davis' head was buzzing when he heard the news. It was like a bolt from the blue.

"Ah! This..." Zhu Zhuyun was so frightened that she turned pale and fell directly onto the stool.

"Your Highness, judging from the situation at the scene, there is no sign of a fight. They were all killed instantly without any resistance. It seems that their bodies were pierced by something, leaving a big hole. There is no weapon left behind. This is different from the cause of death of those people last time."

"Your Highness, I suspect that a Titled Douluo may have taken action."

This old man was Davis's subordinate and also a Soul Emperor. After seeing that his White Tiger Guards never returned, Davis sent him to investigate the situation.

“Pah…”

"Zhu Zhuyun, who on earth did you offend? Just for Zhu Zhuqing, we lost so many strong men, two Soul Emperors, seven Soul Kings, they are all my trusted confidants."

Davis slapped Zhu Zhuyun in the face, causing her to fall to the ground. For this woman, he sacrificed half of his White Tiger Guards.

"Weiss, wasn't I just trying to preserve the royal family's reputation? Who knew that boy could be so terrifying?"

Zhu Zhuyun covered her face, feeling very aggrieved and deeply frightened at the same time. If she targeted the young man like this, she would definitely not be able to escape if the other party attacked her in the future.

"Don't cause me any trouble in the future. Be careful or you might lose your life one day." Davis was also scared. What kind of force did the other party belong to? How could he be so terrifying?

Everyone in the world knows that the Dai family and the Zhu family have been intermarried for generations. If the little girl from the Zhu family really gets together with that young man, it would be a slap in the face of the royal family of the Xingluo Empire and would be laughed at by the whole world.

Two Soul Emperors and seven Soul Kings died at once. Such a big event also alarmed the Star Luo Empire Emperor Dai Tianfeng and Queen Zhu.

"Your Highness, Crown Princess, His Majesty has summoned you."

At this time, a eunuch brought a message asking Davis and Zhu Zhuyun to go to the palace.

In a hall in the imperial palace, Dai Tianfeng, Queen Zhu, Zhu Tianlie, the head of the Zhu family, and other senior executives of the two families were all there. Everyone looked at Davis and Zhu Zhuyun. After all, it was they who were responsible for this incident.

"Tell me! What happened? Who killed so many of our strong men?" Dai Tianfeng stared at Davis and Zhu Zhuyun and asked coldly.

"Father, according to Zhu Yun, the other party is just a handsome boy, but he has the ability to kill a Soul King in seconds. I sent out the White Tiger Guards to find out the truth, but they were completely wiped out."

Facing the Iron-Blooded Emperor Dai Tianfeng, Davis did not dare to hide anything.

"Marshal Zhu, how could that little girl Zhuqing know such a terrifying person?"

Dai Tianfeng spoke to Zhu Tianlie, the head of the Zhu family, and said that this matter was also caused by that little girl.

"Your Majesty, I don't know either! That little girl Zhuqing has been at home all these years. She doesn't know anyone at all."

Zhu Tianlie was also confused. He had no idea who his little daughter had met! "An unknown boy and that girl Zhu Qing were together. This was a blatant provocation to the dignity of our Xing Luo Empire."

As the Emperor of Xingluo, Dai Tianfeng watched his youngest son's fiancée run away with an unknown boy. What kind of thing was this? If this were to get out, it would become a joke for the world. How could he put his face aside?

"Father, please calm down. I think the matter should be suppressed."

"According to Zhu Yun, when the young man killed the guards, no one saw how he did it. As a result, all five guards died, but the young man was not hurt at all. This kind of strength is simply unbelievable. Afterwards, all the people we sent out were wiped out. According to the on-site investigation, they were also killed instantly without any resistance."

"I suspect that there is a Title Douluo-level expert behind that young man, and he is very powerful. We should not provoke him for the time being."

As the first heir to the throne, Davis has a clear mind. Everyone around him was almost killed by others. If he continues to cause trouble for them, wouldn't that be asking for trouble?

For a little girl from the Zhu family, he sacrificed all his people. Only a fool would do such a loss-making business.

"Marshal Zhu, you really raised a good daughter." Dai Tianfeng looked at Zhu Tianlie.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will take care of this matter."

Zhu Tianlie responded perfunctorily on the surface, but he was thinking in his heart that if Zhu Qing really met a peerless genius, it would be a good thing. In this way, she would not have to kill her sister in the future.

"Let's leave it at that. Don't mobilize the royal family's power without knowing who the other party is."

Dai Tianfeng exchanged opinions with the senior executives, and finally reached a consensus to put the matter aside for the time being.

Although this incident made the royal family of the Xingluo Empire very upset, facing this unknown fear, the royal top leaders were confused for a while and could only give in.

In a small courtyard of the Netherworld Duke's Mansion, a beautiful woman learned about Zhu Zhuqing's incident and wondered if the little girl had met that young man. If that was the case, then it would be great. The little girl had finally escaped the cage of fate.

The Zhu Zhuqing incident was so unbelievable that the Xingluo royal family suffered a loss and had to admit defeat. If Ye Liangchen knew the reaction of the Xingluo Empire, he would definitely give himself a Best Director Award.

On this morning, Ye Liangchen and Zhu Zhuqing came to Nottingham. They walked on the street, admiring the customs and culture of the city.

"Kitty! Have you ever been to Nottingham?"

"No, this is my first time in the Tiandou Empire, how about you, Brother Chen?"

"I haven't either. I was still young a few years ago and lived in Tianshui College. Aunt Lan and the others wouldn't let me out."

"Your Aunt Lan and the others are also trying to protect you!"

"Let's go! Let's find a hotel to stay in and then have a good meal."

"Okay, Brother Chen."

The two chatted in low voices as they walked. When they arrived in Notting City, of course they had to stay in the most luxurious hotel. So Ye Liangchen asked passers-by and learned that the most luxurious hotel in Notting City was actually the Rose Hotel.

Oh my god! The Rose Hotel even has a location in a small city like Nottingham.

The two of them took many turns and arrived at a Rose Hotel near the main street. The reason why Ye Liangchen chose this hotel was because the road next to the hotel led to the Holy Soul Village, which made it convenient to observe the situation.

"Boss, please give us two of the most luxurious rooms. We are going to stay here for ten days."

Arriving at the lobby counter of the Rose Hotel, Ye Liangchen used the pseudonym Lan Chen and generously booked two of the most luxurious upper rooms. After all, he was not short of money.

"I'm sorry, dear guest, but the most luxurious room only has one."

The lobby manager was a man in his 30s. When he saw that Ye Liangchen was next to a stunning woman, he immediately understood what he meant and said that there was only one room, with a meaningful smile on his face.

"Boss, there's something wrong with you!"

"Don't worry, handsome guy. The room is big enough. It has two bedrooms and a living room. It will definitely satisfy you and this lady." The lobby manager also boasted to Ye Liangchen about the various benefits of the Rose Hotel.

"I'm not short of money, just get me two rooms." Ye Liangchen directly took out two bags of gold soul coins.

"Brother Chen, we can just stay in one room and save some money."

"Boss, just open a room."

When Zhu Zhuqing heard that there were two rooms, she interrupted Ye Liangchen and asked the lobby manager to open a room. She also took up another bag of gold soul coins and stuffed them into Ye Liangchen's hand.

"Okay, ma'am, this is the most luxurious room card on the top floor. I hope you enjoy your stay with this handsome guy."

The lobby manager handed the room card to Zhu Zhuqing with a smile. For young couples, the service tenet of the Rose Hotel has always been to match them up if possible.

"Thank you, boss."

Zhu Zhuqing took the room card and thought it was nothing. Before, she and Ye Liangchen sometimes lived in the same tent in the forest of the border mountains. Their relationship now was that of good friends and besties, and they could develop further at any time.

"Brother Chen, let's go." Zhu Zhuqing looked at Ye Liangchen who was still in a daze. She was very happy. She pulled his hand and walked straight to the top floor.

"Kitty! Isn't this bad for us?"

Ye Liangchen felt that something was wrong with this little cat. If it continued like this, he felt that he would be controlled by this girl at any time. Are all the women in this world so bold?

"Brother Chen, don't worry about it. I don't dare live alone in this unfamiliar city."

Zhu Zhuqing deliberately found an excuse just to get closer to Ye Liangchen. This man was too outstanding. If she didn't take the initiative now, she might not have a chance in the future.

The two have been together for nearly ten days, and Zhu Zhuqing has gotten to know Ye Liangchen very well. He is handsome, kind-hearted, gentle and considerate, with a sunny and cheerful personality. Most importantly, he respects women very much. In this world where men are superior to women, he is simply an outlier.

Zhu Zhuqing had never met a gentleman like Ye Liangchen before. Even if the two of them were in the same room, nothing would happen. Now she was no longer on guard against him.

Zhu Zhuqing felt that with Ye Liangchen's help to her, as well as his extremely high appearance and strength, even if she were to marry him, she would have made a fortune. Sometimes she felt that she was not worthy of him.

When Zhu Zhuqing was six years old, she had seen the three bodyguards around Ye Liangchen. All of them were extremely beautiful. They would definitely arrange important events in life for this guy, and they might be childhood sweethearts.

Now Zhu Zhuqing no longer cares about those things. Anyway, she must enter Ye Liangchen's world, and nothing else matters.

"Kitten! I feel like something's wrong with you."

Ye Liangchen was speechless as Zhu Zhuqing held his hand all the way. Although they had a very good relationship, there was no need to be like this!

"Brother Chen, I've said before that I'll go wherever you go. I hope you don't dislike me. Let's go eat first."

"Okay! You have the final say."

Seeing that the kitten was becoming more and more clingy, Ye Liangchen had no choice but to let her be. Who could resist a gentle and quiet kitten?

Walking into the most luxurious suite on the top floor, the two of them tidied up their respective rooms, then went to the restaurant downstairs in the hotel, ordered the most luxurious private room, and had a delicious meal.

"We have been cooking for ourselves for so many days. Now we can finally have food provided for us. Eat more, little kitty."

"Brother Chen, you eat too."

It was a warm lunch that felt like a couple's meal and made the two of them very happy.

After lunch, Ye Liangchen returned to the room, took a comfortable hot bath, and prepared to have a good sleep.

“Knock knock…”

"Brother Chen, open the door."

Just then, there was a knock on the door, and the sound of a kitten was heard.

After opening the door, he saw Zhu Zhuqing standing at the door with a slightly red face. Then she excitedly threw herself into Ye Liangchen's arms and kissed him on the face.

"Brother Chen, my soul power has broken through level 30."

At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing felt that happiness came too suddenly. When she first met this man, her soul power was only level 28. With his help, she had broken through to level 30 in just ten days.

"Brother Chen, thank you."

Zhu Zhuqing was very excited, and tears of happiness flowed down her rosy cheeks. At this moment, she was really like a kitten, lying quietly in Ye Liangchen's arms, hugging him tightly, afraid that he would run away.

"You're taking advantage of me again, little kitty."

Ye Liangchen was speechless now, and felt that this girl was getting more and more crooked. Was she still the cool little kitten? "Ah! Brother Chen, stop talking, you are so bad."

Zhu Zhuqing immediately understood what this guy meant, and her pretty face instantly turned red like a red apple.

"Kitty! You're so happy just at level 30. When you reach level 40 or 50, you'll be flying high!"

"Don't rush to get the spirit ring now. Continue to polish your body. After about 10 days, I will take you to get the third spirit ring."

"Go out now! I need to rest."

Ye Liangchen looked at the excited girl, shook his head helplessly, and quickly pushed her away. If she continued like this, something bad would probably happen.

This little cat is so clingy, I wonder if you can handle it? I can't handle it anyway.

"Brother Chen, I will follow your arrangements in everything."

"You should have a good rest. I will come to call you for dinner in the evening."

Zhu Zhuqing is now completely obedient to Ye Liangchen and does whatever he arranges.

"Kitty, remember to combine work and rest, don't let yourself get too tired."

Ye Liangchen ignored the clingy little cat and just lay down on the bed and started to rest.

Judging from the kitten's current appearance, she has probably fallen. In fact, Ye Liangchen also understands that this girl met a cheater like him when she was most desperate in her life. It was like meeting a guiding light. She could only hold on to this only opportunity.

"I understand, Brother Chen."

Looking at Ye Liangchen's ungraceful sleeping posture, which looked very cute, Zhu Zhuqing could not help but chuckle. Then she walked out of Ye Liangchen's room, gently closed the door, came to the sofa in the hall, sat down cross-legged, and began to practice.

Zhu Zhuqing had already made up her mind that after canceling the royal engagement, she would work hard to pursue this man. If she didn't seize the opportunity to meet such a good man, wouldn't she be a fool?
