47: Chapter 47 The End of the White Tiger Duke”Report, General! A secret letter has arrived from His Majesty, ordering you to immediately head to the Imperial Capital. People from Shrek Academy have come looking for you.”

A soldier ran into the main tent, knelt before General Dai Hao, and held the intelligence report above his head with both hands.

General Dai Hao felt something was wrong. According to the intelligence he had received, Shrek Academy had already been destroyed by a mysterious powerhouse, so why were they coming to him now?

Could they want me to send troops to help Shrek Academy eliminate that mysterious powerhouse?

General Dai Hao took the intelligence from the soldier’s hands and began to read it.

”Damn it! How dare they imprison my two sons!”

After finishing the report, General Dai Hao threw it on the ground in a rage. The report stated:

The destroyer of Shrek Academy had imprisoned the two sons of Duke White Tiger because they had offended him. Now, Shrek Academy was in imminent danger and had come to the Star Luo Empire for reinforcements, hoping that Brother Dai Hao would return to the Imperial Capital as soon as possible to discuss how to mobilize troops to help Shrek Academy.

”What a troubled time this is.”

General Dai Hao paced back and forth in the tent, anxious. He didn’t know whether he should go to the Imperial Capital; his intuition told him there was a conspiracy.

However, he hadn’t heard any news about his sons for a long time, and he couldn’t be sure if they were truly imprisoned.

”I’ll risk it. Even if Emperor Xu Jiawei wants to kill me, those venerated elders won’t agree. Besides, I have already broken through to Titled Douluo; even if they try to surround and kill me, I can still escape.”

General Dai Hao’s gaze gradually hardened. He had to go to the Imperial Capital to see if the information from the escapees of Shrek Academy was correct. If his sons were truly imprisoned, he would risk his life to save them.

He only had these two sons with great talent, and they were the hope of the Duke White Tiger Manor. If they died, the Duke White Tiger Manor would be completely finished.

He would not allow the Duke White Tiger Manor to fall into ruin under his watch!

”Immediately pack up and follow me to Star Luo City!”

”From now on, the White Tiger Army is left to you. If I die, then I must have fallen into a treacherous plot by Emperor Xu Jiawei, and you may directly lead the troops to attack Star Luo City!”

After giving instructions to his deputy general, General Dai Hao took three Soul Douluo with him, used flying soul tools, and flew toward Star Luo City.

Along the way, his heart could not settle, as if reminding him to be careful.

Traveling at full speed, they arrived at the outskirts of Star Luo City in one day.

”Greetings, Duke White Tiger!”

The gate guards bowed as soon as they saw Duke White Tiger.

But General Dai Hao was in no mood to deal with them; he rushed toward the Imperial Palace in a hurry.

”Miss Ju Zi, General Dai Hao will arrive soon. Are you ready?”

Emperor Xu Jiawei sat on the throne, looking down at Ju Zi, and said indifferently.

”Your Majesty, rest assured. As long as General Dai Hao dares to step in here, I will immediately activate the killer move given to me by that adult, and General Dai Hao will be slain in one strike.”

Ju Zi looked at the golden longsword in her hand, her face flushed and her whole body trembling. The day for her to avenge her parents had arrived, and Duke White Tiger would also pay the price for his actions!

”Report, Your Majesty, Duke White Tiger requests an audience!”

A voice came from outside the palace doors, and Emperor Xu Jiawei quickly replied: ”Announce him in.”

Outside the door, General Dai Hao looked at the closed gate, a sense of nervousness rising in his heart, and fine cold sweat appearing on his forehead. Hearing Emperor Xu Jiawei’s voice from inside, General Dai Hao slowly stepped forward and raised his hand to push open the door.

In that instant, a flash of golden light streaked by.

”Wait, wasn’t I pushing the door? Who is that headless corpse standing there?”

The moment General Dai Hao pushed open the door, Ju Zi activated the sword given to her by Chen Yang. It was fast, too fast. It was so fast that General Dai Hao, a Titled Douluo, didn’t even have time to react before he was directly beheaded.

”Thud!”

General Dai Hao’s head fell to the ground, making a sound. The three Soul Douluo looked at the wide-eyed, disbelieving General Dai Hao, a chill enveloping their hearts.

General Dai Hao had actually died in an instant!

”General! Emperor Xu Jiawei, how dare you kill Duke White Tiger! Die!”

The three Soul Douluo finally reacted. They unleashed their Martial Spirits and charged into the hall, but what awaited them was a golden longsword. Under the slaughter of the longsword, the three Soul Douluo couldn’t even make a ripple before they were killed directly.

The golden longsword seemed to know its mission was complete and turned into golden light spots, disappearing from the hall.

Emperor Xu Jiawei looked at the dissipating longsword, shocked. Those powerhouses who destroyed Shrek Academy didn’t even need to come in person; with just a sword, they could casually kill a Titled Douluo. This was too strong.

Such a figure must absolutely not be offended. Emperor Xu Jiawei immediately said to Princess Xu Jiujiu in a deep voice: ”Jiujiu, you must treat such a peak powerhouse well.”

”Jiujiu understands, Brother, don’t worry.”

Princess Xu Jiujiu also quickly replied. Serving such a powerhouse was a stroke of good fortune for her.

Emperor Xu Jiawei slowly walked down from the imperial throne, looking at General Dai Hao’s corpse with emotion: ”Brother Dai Hao, don’t worry. I will definitely ensure the Duke White Tiger Manor perishes!”

”Hahaha...”

Now that the only obstacle had been removed, the Star Luo Empire finally belonged only to his Xu family. Without General Dai Hao, the Duke White Tiger Manor couldn’t stir up any trouble at all.

Even those loyal to General Dai Hao were purged overnight, and the White Tiger Army was firmly grasped in Emperor Xu Jiawei’s hands.

It was renamed — Star Luo Army!

”...”

Shrek Academy.

Ten days had passed since Chen Yang began refining the Eighth Grade Pill. The number of people watching below was decreasing, but Zhang Lexuan, Wu Ming, Han Ruoruo, Ma Xiaotao, as well as Princess Xu Jiujiu and Ju Zi who had returned from the Star Luo Empire, were still there.

Even Meng Hongchen was beside Ju Zi, looking curiously at the figure in the sky.

Originally, when she heard that her grandfather wanted to send her to someone else, she was very unwilling, even if that person was a peerless powerhouse.

As everyone knew, I, Meng Hongchen, was a fan of good looks. If he wasn’t handsome, I wouldn’t like him, no matter how strong he was. But she still couldn’t refuse her grandfather and agreed to come to Shrek Academy to serve him alongside Ju Zi.

However, looking at the man full of masculine energy in the sky, she stopped resisting in an instant. He was so handsome, only slightly worse than the readers, but he still captured Meng Hongchen’s heart.

She felt she had already fallen in love with this man: black clothes, black hair, closed eyes, plus a chiseled face and a handsome figure. Loved it, loved it.

”Sister Ju Zi, when do you think he will refine the pill? I really want to talk to him.”

Meng Hongchen pouted, hugging one of Ju Zi’s arms and acting spoiled.

Ju Zi smiled slightly, looking at the figure in the sky with eyes full of love.

”I don’t know either, but I guess it will be soon. It’s already been over ten days.”

”I heard that what he is refining is some Eighth Grade Pill, the kind of pill that can trigger Pill Lightning. I don’t know if there is Pill Lightning on the Douluo Continent.”

Since killing General Dai Hao, the knot in Ju Zi’s heart had completely disappeared. Now, she was incomparably happy every day; she only wanted to live for Chen Yang.
