Douluo Dalu: Ice Demon Yuhao

“What conspiracy?”
“They are training evil soul masters in secret.”
“Evil Soul Master?”
Xu Jiujiu was shocked and said, “They can actually do such a heinous thing. Their civilians are so unfortunate.”
Huo Yuhao shook his head: “They may not necessarily use their own civilians to support these evil soul masters.”
Xu Jiujiu was stunned for a moment: “That is…”
“What if they deploy these evil soul masters to the Xing Luo Empire and the other two countries?”
“What did you say?”
Xu Jiujiu stood up suddenly, with a look of disbelief on his face.
Nebula Douluo standing by also looked unhappy: “Aren’t you afraid of being scorned by the Sun-Moon Empire for doing this?”
Huo Yuhao said: “All of this is just my speculation, but if this is true, Xing Luo may not be able to deal with it.”
“Send a few evil soul masters to wreak havoc in those cities where the garrisons are weak. You in Xingluo City will be unable to provide support even if you want to.”
Xu Jiujiu’s expression became increasingly ugly.
Nebula Douluo was about to say something, when at this moment, a soul-transmitting device on her body suddenly lit up with a flashing red light.
Her face changed slightly, and she said to the two of them, “Jiujiu, my friends, please come with me.”
Xu Jiujiu looked at the soul transmitter on her body and said, “Grandma Manyi, what happened? Is this a summons from the Royal Worship Hall?”
“There’s something urgent. You all should come with me.”
Huo Yuhao said: “I don’t need to go… It has nothing to do with me…”
Nebula Douluo Manyi shook his head: “No, my friend, you come with me too.”
After saying that, Nebula Douluo Manyi disappeared into the room with the two of them.
……
After the Soul Fighting Competition ended, the huge crowds of spectators around Xingluo Square had basically dispersed. If someone looked carefully in the direction of the Imperial City, they would be able to see an old man sitting on the top of the city wall.
The man was none other than Old Xuan, who was drinking from a large gourd, emitting a non-targeted yet strong aura of oppression.
In the air in front of him, two national defenders, Tiansha Douluo Huang Jinxu and Giant Strength Douluo Cheng Gang, were hanging in the air with solemn expressions.
In addition to the two of them, there are two Titled Douluo watching here in secret.
Because Master Xuan seemed to have bad intentions.
This is the imperial city of the capital of the Xing Luo Empire. Allowing outsiders to appear here is truly an insult to the imperial majesty.
After a long while, Tiansha Douluo asked, “Senior Taotie Douluo, the Soul Fighting Competition has ended, and the Shrek team has left Xingluo. May I ask if you have any instructions?”
Elder Xuan took a sip of wine and said calmly, “Nothing, one of my students got lost in your Xingluo City, and I hope you can help find him.”
Hearing this, Tiansha Douluo breathed a sigh of relief and said respectfully: “Senior Taotie Douluo, may I ask the name of this student? We Xingluo are naturally obliged to help find him.”
Elder Xuan said: “You should all have an impression of this student. His name is Huo Yuhao.”
Tiansha Douluo raised his eyebrows. He was indeed familiar with this name, because Huo Yuhao’s performance in the competition was indeed eye-catching.
He didn’t think anything of it since he didn’t know Huo Yuhao, but Cheng Gang, the Great Strength Douluo standing next to him, had a changed expression.
Cheng Gang knew that Huo Yuhao had quit Shrek for some unknown reason, and would basically enter Xingluo Royal Academy next.
Although he didn’t like this kid, he couldn’t just hand him over since Master Xuan just came to his door and asked for him.
After thinking it over, Cheng Gang said, “Senior Taotie Douluo, you don’t know that Huo Yuhao is originally from Xingluo. He is very familiar with this Xingluo City. It is impossible for him to get lost.”
“I guess he went out to play by himself. When he gets tired, he will naturally go back.”
Cheng Gang didn’t dare to offend Master Xuan and just wanted to get the matter over with as soon as possible.
Elder Xuan glanced at him, his casual eyes carrying a fierce pressure: “Oh? From your tone, you seem to know this student. Perhaps you are old acquaintances?”
Cheng Gang’s face fell immediately.
Judging from Master Xuan’s attitude, this matter may not be so easy to handle.
“The two of you, plus the two in secret, even if all four of you attack me, you are still no match for me.”
Mr. Xuan snorted coldly.
“I know that this student is related to your Xingluo royal family. I advise you to hand him over on your own initiative, otherwise don’t blame me for getting angry.”
“Humph.”
Tiansha Douluo and Jili Douluo were both only at level ninety-one or ninety-two, and they were completely powerless against Master Xuan.
Tiansha Douluo said cautiously: “Senior Taotie Douluo, Xingluo City is so big, with millions of people. It may not be easy to find someone.”
Elder Xuan said in a deep voice: “Two hours, I will give you two hours. I hope to meet the missing student of Shrek. Otherwise, I will destroy this Xingluo City.”
The two Nation Protectors both looked grim, this was an obvious threat from Master Xuan.
Old Xuan is now feeling anxious. He must bring Huo Yuhao back to Shrek as soon as possible.
One reason was Huo Yuhao’s Ultimate Ice Martial Soul, and the other was that Ma Xiaotao’s martial soul had mutated into a black phoenix, and she needed Huo Yuhao’s Ultimate Ice to help her suppress the evil fire.
At the same time, in a room in the imperial city.
A majestic voice asked, “What do you think of the Taotie Douluo on the top of the city?”
Chapter 152 Shrek’s Hands Are Too Long
The room was big, but not crowded, with only about a dozen people sitting there.
The first one was a handsome old man, sitting dignifiedly. Although he had a head full of white hair, he did not look old, but rather had an air of immortality.
Even the Xingluo Emperor Xu Jiawei only sat on his left, and the Xingluo Princess Xu Jiujiu didn’t even have a seat, she just stood behind Xu Jiawei.
On his right hand side was a white-haired old woman.
Everyone present, except for the brother and sister Xu Jiawei and Xu Jiujiu, were actually Titled Douluo level masters.
Xu Jiujiu’s face was solemn. This was the royal worship hall of the Xing Luo Empire. Meetings were only organized when important matters occurred.
Huo Yuhao naturally had no right to come in and was waiting in a room far away outside.
The old man sitting in the first seat is the head of the Star Luo Empire’s Royal Worship Hall, the strongest man in the Star Luo Empire, and a Super Douluo.
“The Taotie Douluo and I are old acquaintances. Why did he come to our Xingluo Imperial City with such fanfare to ask for someone?”
The old man spoke calmly and glanced at Xu Jiawei on his left.
As the king of a country, Xu Jiawei also said respectfully at this moment: “Tianlao, he came here for a student. Let Jiujiu tell you the details.”
Xu Jiujiu behind him saluted and said, “Grandpa Tian, that student is Huo Yuhao. He represented Shrek Academy in the Soul Fighting Competition and won the championship, but for some reason he chose to quit Shrek and has now joined Xingluo Royal Academy.”
The old man named Tian Lao said calmly: “Oh, it’s him. I seem to have some impression of him. He is just a student. Just give it to him.”
Xu Jiujiu said: “But, Grandpa Tian…”
Tian Lao looked indifferent: “Why? Do you think that the Xing Luo Empire needs to have a quarrel with Shrek Academy because of a student?”
“You know, that Taotie Douluo had already reached level 98 decades ago. He wants to snatch people from our Xingluo City. Can we stop him?”
“Or do you want us to become enemies with Shrek Academy because of a student?”
Tian Lao looked at Xu Jiujiu with a sidelong glance. Xu Jiujiu didn’t dare to say anything more, but just lowered his head silently.
Xu Jiawei said: “Then we will hand over the student to Taotie Douluo now?”
Tian Lao said calmly: “Who said we are going to hand it over?”
After a long time, he looked up and stared at Tian Lao in a daze.
The white-haired old woman sitting on Tian Lao’s right smiled and said, “Do you think it’s worth holding such a meeting just for a student?”
While she was in a daze, the old man glanced at everyone and said, “Since everyone is here, I will get straight to the point.”
A Title Douluo below offered: “Tianlao, there are still two people who haven’t arrived yet.”
Tian Lao said calmly: “The two of them have some connection with Shrek Academy. What I want to say today is not for them.”
“There are no outsiders here now, so I’ll get straight to the point.”
“Do you think Shrek’s hand is too long?”
The other priests were a little stunned, because Shrek Academy was truly the best academy in the continent, with many outstanding students, and Tian Lao’s words seemed to be a kind of accusation.
A worshipper asked, “Tianlao, do you mean that Shrek Academy wants to interfere in Xingluo’s national affairs?”
Tian Lao said calmly, “State affairs? Shrek Academy is very smart and knows what to intervene in and what not to intervene in.”
“They always remain neutral, do not have private armies, and have no sense of crisis towards any country.”
The worshipper asked: “Tianlao, how can you …”
Tian Lao said: “But they have their own ideas.”
“They don’t need to directly intervene in the affairs of other countries, but the students who graduate from Shrek will go to other countries to take up important positions. Shrek Academy only needs to issue a call at the right time, and those students will naturally open the door for them.”
“Think back to four thousand years ago, when Shrek Academy was able to rally the three empires together to fight against the Sun-Moon Empire.”
“Now, they don’t need everyone to respond, it’s enough for them to get a lot of benefits.”
Tian Lao looked at Xu Jiawei and asked, “How many of Xing Luo’s officials and generals are graduates of Shrek now?”
Xu Jiawei replied respectfully: “At least a hundred people.”
In fact, he, the emperor of the Xingluo Empire, also studied at Shrek Academy when he was young.
“Humph. As far as I know, these students from Shrek Academy have formed factions and support each other, which is quite impressive. Jiawei, am I right?”
“Now that this Taotie Douluo has forced his way into my Xingluo Imperial City to demand someone, I’m afraid those Shrek disciples will applaud, right?”
Xu Jiawei nodded solemnly.
Tian Lao pondered for a while, then said calmly: “I think it is necessary to check and balance Shrek Academy. What do you think?”
“This……”
All the worshippers were shocked when they heard this.
