Chapter 131: Stellar Turmoil

"Alright, it's just a mu of medicinal field, I'll give it to you."

Qin Xiao's response was affirmative.

In fact, after the immortal grass of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was taken away, he no longer placed much importance on this place.

After all, he was not like Dugu Bo, who took poisoning and medicine refining as a hobby, a typical person who couldn't live without a medicinal field.

"Hehe, I didn't expect you, young man, to be so loyal and righteous."

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo couldn't help but tease.

Qin Xiao huffed annoyedly, "Stop talking nonsense, let's save the person."

"Don't worry, I, Dugu Bo, have taken on this matter. With this girl in my hands, even wanting to die will be difficult."

"Just wait here for a moment, I'll go prepare the antidote and come right back."

Having said that, Dugu Bo hurriedly left.

Elsewhere.

In the Star Luo Imperial City.

In the imperial palace's main hall, the Star Luo Emperor was reviewing the latest memorials when he suddenly heard a rush of footsteps from outside the hall.

A servant, in a great hurry, entered the main hall and, without waiting for the Star Luo Emperor to ask, hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, there is a letter from the Third Prince."

The Third Prince?

Mu Bai?

The Star Luo Emperor raised his eyebrows, hummed authoritatively, "This coward who lacks courage, has he finally deigned to send a letter to his father?"

"Bring it here."

As the voice fell, the servant stepped forward and respectfully handed the letter to the Star Luo Emperor.

The Star Luo Emperor took the letter from the envelope and only glanced at it twice, his entire being seemingly petrified.

[Respected Father Emperor:

When you read this letter, I should already be dead.]

These few lines directly shocked the Star Luo Emperor's heart.

"Dead?!"

"How could he be dead, who dares to kill my son!"

The Star Luo Emperor's eyes reddened, immensely furious.

However, wanting to know what exactly happened, he continued reading with suppressed anger.

Gradually, the Star Luo Emperor trembled all over.

He had come to know the cause and effect.

According to Dai Mu Bai's letter, after Zhu Zhuqing found a wild man to support her, she went to forcibly annul their engagement with Dai Mu Bai using force.

Dai Mu Bai had also tried to resist.

The result was tragic.

His fingers were chopped off, and his manhood was also ruined by Zhu Zhuqing.

Thus, Dai Mu Bai, unwilling to give in, hired a soul master to take action against Zhu Zhuqing.

The result
must have been a failure.

Because this letter was written by Dai Mu Bai well in advance. And he informed the messenger that if no message from him was received within three days, to deliver this letter to the Star Luo Imperial Palace.

"Zhu Zhuqing, you really have some nerve, daring to collude with outsiders and harm my son."

"Although he was inept, timid, and cowardly, he was, after all, my child, a prince of the Star Luo Empire, your betrothed. Even if he were to die, he should only die at the hands of his brother, Dai Weisi, not so unclearly."

The Star Luo Emperor was incredibly annoyed in his heart.

Dai Mu Bai's death was a significant blow to him.

Of course, this blow was not much emotional; the Star Luo Emperor cared more about the loss of royal dignity and face.

The prince being broken off an engagement, being ruined, and finally dying dishonorably was something the Star Luo Empire could not afford to lose face over.

"It's just that the man's strength is somewhat troublesome"

"A Title Douluo level powerhouse, and not just any Title Douluo, such a combat power, the Star Luo Empire really shouldn't provoke."

Gradually, the Star Luo Emperor found himself in a dilemma again.

Dai Mu Bai's letter also mentioned this Title Douluo level powerhouse named Qin Xiao. Clearly, this was not someone their Star Luo Empire could easily handle.

"Hmph, Qin Xiao, I may not move against you for now, but this grudge, my Star Luo Royal Family will remember. One day, I will make sure Qin Xiao pays the price."

"As for now, I can think of a way to collect some interest. Even if I can't directly handle Qin Xiao, I can't let him have an easy time."

Before long, the Star Luo Emperor devised a plan.

He ordered a servant at a lower position: "Summon Duke Zhu here, tell him His Majesty has urgent matters to discuss."

"Yes."

The servant agreed and withdrew.

After a long while.

Outside the imperial palace hall, a voice sounded.

"Your Majesty."

The Star Luo Emperor looked towards the outside of the hall, seeing a handsome middle-aged man waiting respectfully.

Without a doubt, this person was Duke Zhu.

The leader of the Zhu clan.

"Come in and speak."

The Star Luo Emperor spoke faintly.

His voice contained immense authority.

Duke Zhu immediately felt a considerable pressure.

He couldn't help muttering in his heart, "It seems something significant has happened."

His heart suddenly tightened.

Step by step.

Duke Zhu walked forward a few steps, finally entering the main hall.

"The doubts in your heart, hold them for now, read this letter first before speaking."

The Star Luo Emperor said, tossing the letter in his hand to Duke Zhu.

Without a doubt, this letter was personally written by Dai Mu Bai.

"Yes."

Duke Zhu agreed, then opened the letter.

Just at first glance, his face showed shock.

"This is the Third Prince Dai Mu Bai's will!"

His voice was filled with unrest.

"Hehe, Duke, you might as well continue reading."

The Star Luo Emperor sat on the throne, smiling faintly.

"Yes."

Duke Zhu continued reading, his expression growing increasingly ugly.

"It's Zhuqing."

He was completely at a loss for words.

"Hehe, Duke, you've indeed raised a remarkable daughter, daring enough to collude with outsiders and strike against the imperial prince."

The Star Luo Emperor said coldly, "Indeed, very commendable. I just don't know whether it's your daughter who's rebellious, or if you, Duke Zhu, also harbor ulterior motives."

Thump.

Duke Zhu knelt on one knee, his face full of fear, "Your Majesty, please discern, my Zhu clan harbors no ill will towards the royal family, there must be some misunderstanding. Yes, it must be a misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding?"

The Star Luo Emperor snorted coldly, "Whether it's a misunderstanding or not, I am not clear, but what I am sure of is that Dai Mu Bai is now dead."

Duke Zhu said, "Your Majesty, please remain calm, concerning the Third Prince's matter, there's too much that's suspicious, I believe there must be more to this."

"Suspicious, hidden truths?"

The Star Luo Emperor coldly said, "Fine, in that case, I'll give you a chance. Within half a month, you're free to investigate. After half a month, give me a satisfactory answer."

"Thank you for your magnanimity, Your Majesty."

Duke Zhu's face showed joy.

The Star Luo Emperor added, "Don't celebrate too early. If after half a month, your answer is weak, then the Zhu clan will be punished for the crime of rebellion."

After hearing the Star Luo Emperor's words, Duke Zhu nodded heavily, "Rest assured, Your Majesty, I will certainly provide a satisfactory answer."

The Star Luo Emperor waved his hand, "Leave now."

"Yes." Duke Zhu, as if pardoned, immediately left.

Once Duke Zhu had completely disappeared from sight, the Star Luo Emperor spoke again: "Someone come."

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.

Upon his command, three figures dressed in black appeared in the hall.

"From now on, you three keep a close watch on Duke Zhu and the movements within the Duke's residence. If there's any hint of rebellion from the Zhu clan, report to me immediately."

"Yes."

The voice of the Star Luo Emperor fell, and the three responded in unison.

Elsewhere.

In Tian Dou City.

Outside Yu Luo Mian's room, the door was suddenly knocked on.

"Who is it?"

Yu Luo Mian frowned, calling out to the outside.

"It's me."

A voice, both familiar and strange, came from outside.

"Er Long!"

Yu Luo Mian's eyes filled with surprise.

Creak.

He quickly opened the door, seeing Liu Er Long standing outside, dressed in a simple long skirt.

Yu Luo Mian said with some joy, "I knew it, you would choose to see me."

"Do you really want me to speak here?"

Liu Er Long asked Yu Luo Mian, somewhat irritably.

"Come in, quickly come in."

Yu Luo Mian said, hastily making way at the door.

Liu Er Long gracefully walked in.

"Actually, I came here to tell you something."

Liu Er Long glanced around the room and then fixed her gaze on Yu Luo Mian.

Yu Luo Mian was initially startled, then said with some excitement, "Does that mean you're willing to tell me about Qin Xiao?"

"Great, this is really great. Knowing both ourselves and the enemy, we will never be defeated in a hundred battles. With the information you provide, I believe we will definitely find a way to deal with Qin Xiao."

As he spoke, he excitedly waved his fists.

However, Liu Er Long shook her head helplessly.

Hopeless.

She truly felt that Yu Luo Mian was beyond saving.

"I'll only tell you two things, and you'll have to figure out the rest on your own."

Liu Er Long said, raising a finger, "First, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is in a deep alliance with Qin Xiao, being loyal allies."

Yu Luo Mian was startled, "Qin Xiao has this kind of relationship with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"

This was beyond his expectations.

Didn't this mean that to deal with Qin Xiao, they would also have to confront the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?
Unconsciously, he frowned.

This was somewhat troublesome.

At this moment, Liu Er Long raised a second finger, "The second thing is that the Hao Tian Sect has been annihilated by Qin Xiao and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect working together. It's said that among the Hao Tian Sect, five Title Douluo elders were all killed in battle, and none survived. The sect's gate was also destroyed."

"What?"

Yu Luo Mian's face changed drastically, "You're saying Hao Tian Sect was annihilated, and its gate was destroyed?"

Without a doubt, Liu Er Long's words were like a heavy hammer, smashing hard on Yu Luo Mian's heart.

He never imagined that Hao Tian Sect, one of the top three sects, was gone.

Even more disastrously than their Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon Clan.

Just who exactly is Qin Xiao, to be so heaven-defying? Yu Luo Mian was truly shocked.

"Now that I've said what I needed to, what you do next is up to you."

"However, I will say this: if you're not yet tired of living, then don't provoke Qin Xiao."

"Take care."

With that, Liu Er Long pushed the door open and left.

"Wait."

Suddenly, Yu Luo Mian called out to Liu Er Long.

Liu Er Long slightly turned her head, "Is there anything else?"

Yu Luo Mian hesitated for a moment, then somewhat awkwardly rubbed his hands, "I wanted to ask, what exactly is your relationship with Qin Xiao?"

Liu Er Long was stunned for a moment, then a flush appeared on her face.

"That's none of your business."

She left him with those words and turned to leave.

"Ah, the elder daughter doesn't stay at home."

After Liu Er Long left, Yu Luo Mian sighed.

But the next moment, he thought differently.

"At Er Long's age, she shouldn't be staying either. If it were a few years later..."

"Being so close to this Qin Xiao might not be a good thing."

"Sigh."

Thinking over it, he sighed again.

Not to mention, the relationship between the Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon Clan and Qin Xiao was very tense.

If Yu Yuanzhen really returned from the clan's forbidden land, a great battle with Qin Xiao was inevitable.

At that time...
"The outcome is unpredictable."

Yu Luo Mian suddenly felt torn.

On one side was his family and elder brother; on the other was his daughter, and he truly didn't know whose side to take.

"Let it be, there's always a way out of the mountains. For now, let's not think too much about it and wait until they really come to blows."

Muttering to himself, Yu Luo Mian also left the room.

He needed to return to the Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon Clan and tell the sect disciples to stay indoors for the time being.

They couldn't afford to provoke Qin Xiao, but they could at least hide from him.

"Your Highness."

Beside the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Meng Yiran slowly opened her eyes.

The first thing she saw was Qin Xiao's handsome face, her eyes filled with emotion.

This man had saved her once again.

"You're still recovering from severe injuries, don't speak for now."

Qin Xiao cut off Meng Yiran's words.

He looked at Dugu Bo beside him, frowning, "Dugu Bo, why is Yiran still so weak?"

Dugu Bo replied irritably, "Do you think I'm a wishing star, where wishes come true instantly?"

"I'm telling you, this girl was already poisoned throughout her body when she was brought here. It was already not easy to save her life. If you want her to recover completely, I need to carefully prepare several more medicines and another three to five days of recuperation at least."

Qin Xiao nodded, "That sounds reasonable."

Dugu Bo huffed, "What do you mean 'sounds reasonable'? Your words make me feel distrusted."

"Uh, was it that obvious?"

Qin Xiao was somewhat surprised, "I thought with your intelligence, you wouldn't notice."

Dugu Bo: "."

Right now, he really wanted to send Qin Xiao away with one word, Scram!

This kid's mouth was really too venomous.

Three days later.

Above the ruined gate of Hao Tian Sect.

Three figures descended from the sky.

Without a doubt, these were Tang San, Tang Hao, and Tang Chen.

"My Hao Tian Sect, how could it have become like this!?"

It must be said, even prepared, seeing the ruined gate in front of him, Tang Chen's heart was indescribably sorrowful.

This place held too many of his memories.

The construction of Hao Tian Fort also involved too much of his effort.

But now, decades of effort had gone up in smoke, all becoming a fleeting dream.

He could no longer hold back, looking up to the sky, he roared, "Qin Xiao, you truly deserve to die."

"I, Tang Chen, swear in this life to slay you under my sword, using your blood and head to comfort the spirits of my Hao Tian Sect!"
