Douluo: The Road to Invincibility Begins with Bibi Dong

Chapter 331 Why Did You Run Into the City?

After a night of fighting, Li Ling finally woke up at noon the next day.

There was no one around me. Bibi Dong had long disappeared. Only a faint fragrance on the quilt and pillow remained.

"Buzz~~~"

On the bedside table, the phone, which was set to vibrate mode, began to buzz.

Li Ling rubbed his sleepy eyes, reached for the mobile phone on the bedside table and glanced at it.

The incoming video call displayed Zhu Zhuyun’s profile picture.

"Hey."

Li Ling answered the video call, said something casually, then closed his eyes and lay down again.

"It's already noon, why haven't you gotten up yet? Which woman did you spend the whole night with?"

Zhu Zhuyun looked at the room in the video curiously through her mobile phone.

"The bedroom looks quite luxurious. You are not in the home of some noble lady in Tiandou City, are you?"

Li Ling didn't even raise his eyelids: "You called me so early in the morning just to check on me?"

When Zhu Zhuyun heard this, he stopped smiling and said seriously, "I came to you to borrow Zhuqing and Xiaowu from you. I want them to come and help me for a while."

"The Xingluo Emperor is critically ill and will not last for many days. Now all parties are beginning to stir up trouble. I am a little worried."

"I know you're a busy person and may not have time to come and help me. Xiao Wu and Zhu Qing don't have much to do in the academy anyway, so why not let them come and help me for a while?"

"Huh?" Li Ling opened his eyes and looked suspicious when he heard that.

"Isn't Emperor Xingluo in good health? How come he is suddenly critically ill? Could it be that Dai Mubai has done something?"

Davis is still in his mirror world. To the Xingluo royal family, his life or death is unknown and his whereabouts are unknown.

Since Zhu Zhuyun chose to go back and take charge personally, he should have already thought of how to respond to the Xingluo royal family and the various forces that support Davis.

The only person who might take advantage of Davis's disappearance to take action against Xing Luo Emperor could only be Dai Mubai.

Zhu Zhuyun chuckled and shook her head: "I did it. I got the drug from Dugu Bo before I left the academy. It is colorless and odorless. I have also cleared out the person who poisoned it. No one will suspect me."

"The only thing I'm worried about now is the power hidden in the dark by the Xingluo royal family. But if you can get Zhuqing and Xiaowu to help me, then I won't have to worry."

"Wait until I have dealt with the matter here, then send Davis over. By the way."

"Do you have any way to control Davis? All you need is for him to be able to attend the succession ceremony like a normal person when the dust settles."

"I believe this shouldn't be a problem for you."

Zhu Zhuyun's current soul power level is 87. Judging from the apparent strength of the Star Luo Empire alone, she can be said to have already squeezed into the ranks of the top group of powerful people in the Star Luo Empire.

However, Zhu Zhuyun didn’t believe that the Xingluo royal family only had the power it appeared on the surface.

Judging from the apparent power of the Xingluo Empire, it would be difficult to understand how they could suppress the Zhu family, let alone the various forces within the Xingluo Empire.

Zhu Zhuyun would feel more at ease if he could get Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing to his side as helpers.

Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing are now both level 99 peerless Douluo. As long as they don't become enemies with Li Ling, Zhu Zhuyun is very confident that he can take down the Xing Luo Empire.

"You did it?" Li Ling's eyes showed a hint of surprise.

This woman was really impatient. She hadn't even dealt with Dai Mubai yet, but she had already set her sights on the throne of the Xingluo Empire. However, based on his understanding of Zhu Zhuyun, he knew that she was not an impulsive woman. She must have been more or less confident before she did such a thing.

"Yeah." Zhu Zhuyun responded.

It seems that this woman wants to take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of Dai Mubai as well.

Dai Mubai had already been defeated in the Soul Master Elite Competition, and had lost the support of Zhu Zhuqing and the Zhu family. It could be said that he had already lost the qualifications to compete.

Now Davis' whereabouts are unknown, and only Zhu Zhuyun is left in Xingluo to take charge of the situation.

Under this circumstance, Dai Mubai does have an opportunity to turn the tables, and he is the most likely suspect.

As long as the crime of murdering Emperor Xingluo is pinned on Dai Mubai, and then Davis appears at the right time, he can succeed to the throne naturally.

Dai Mubai will also completely lose the chance to turn the tables, and may even be hunted down by the entire Xing Luo Empire.

What we are worried about now is that many forces in the Xingluo Empire have probably been secretly bought off by this woman.

"No need, Xiaowu and Zhuqing. I just happen to have nothing to do recently, so I'll go over and take a look."

Li Ling hung up the video call, went to the Pope's Palace to say hello to Bibi Dong, then got on the carriage and headed towards the Xingluo Empire.

The carriage traveled slowly on the road for half a month and finally arrived at Xingluo City, the capital of the Xingluo Empire.

The bluestone city walls are towering and majestic. After countless years of test, they are still as strong as ever.

The carriage drove slowly into the city, and what came into view was a wide and straight avenue with shops lined on both sides, which was very bustling.

The buildings in the city are well-arranged with different architectural styles, including quaint and elegant wooden lofts and magnificent buildings that incorporate some modern elements.

Li Ling was sitting in the carriage, admiring the scenery and customs along the streets when Zhu Zhuyun called him via video.

After the video call was connected, Zhu Zhuyun's beautiful face came into view.

In the video, behind Zhu Zhuyun seems to be a quiet and elegant courtyard with rockery, flowing water, lush vegetation, and occasional bird calls, which makes the place seem very peaceful and harmonious.

"See? Do you know where this is?"

Li Ling turned the camera of his mobile phone towards the busy street outside the car window and spoke first.

Zhu Zhuyun laughed dumbly and said, "You just want to say that I didn't go to pick you up. I'm in the courtyard outside the city now. I knew you were coming, so I personally brought people to decorate this courtyard that is rarely used on weekdays."

"The person I sent to pick you up should have been waiting for you at the city gate."

"Why did you go to the city? Didn't he pick you up?"

"That shouldn't be the case. I showed her your portrait. She should be able to recognize you."

"Also, looking at the background in the video, did you come here in a carriage?"

Zhu Zhuyun really didn't know what to say now.

A level 99 peerless Douluo actually has to rely on a carriage to travel.

Why don't you just fly over here?

Who can recognize you sitting in the carriage?
