Douluo: Lin Dong Travels Through Huo Yuhao

Chapter 110 Lin Dong’s “Gift” to the Zhu Family

The fight just now ended so quickly that she didn't even have time to stop it.

She was just waiting for Lin Dong to die after Wang Zhong drained all his soul power. Who could have thought that the battle situation would change so drastically in just a moment.

Zhu Ji stood there in a daze, unable to utter a word for a long time. The two people participating in the competition were the elites trained by their family, yet they were defeated so easily by the other party.

She now clearly realized how terrible Lin Dong was. Thinking of the grudge between Zhu Ling and Lin Dong, she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart. If this boy wasn't eliminated, the Zhu family might not be able to live in peace for long!

But now he has three level nine soul masters protecting him closely. Let alone the Zhu family, even if the whole country were to mobilize, they probably wouldn't be qualified to keep this kid. Not to mention that Xu Jiawei would never make such a decision that would cost him a lot of money.

Lin Dong walked down the stage calmly. Xiao Hongchen looked at Wang Zhong, whose face was completely ruined and whose chest was sunken, and spat, saying in a cold voice:
"Shrek's genius? How dare you act so arrogant in front of this genius? I'm going to fight Shrek!"

Zhu Ji's expression kept changing due to Xiao Hongchen's words. After a while, she said with an unpleasant expression:

"Everyone, aren't you going to the next place?"

Jing Hongchen glanced at her slowly and said indifferently:
"I thought Madam Zhu would want to call us to task. Haha, thank you Madam Zhu for forgiving our team members for being so eager to win. I think so. After all, you are also the Earl of Xingluo, and you should know something about the rules of the game."

Zhu Ji was choked by his sarcastic words and didn't know what to say, but the other party was so powerful that it would only take a moment for him to destroy her Zhu family. She could only force out a smile that was uglier than crying:
"Master Hongchen, you are joking. We all know the rules of accepting defeat. I will escort you all out now."

Lin Dong glanced at her calmly. This woman didn’t seem that stupid. He just wondered whether she knew about the affair between him and that vicious woman. If she did, then this woman in front of him was quite tolerant.

However, Lin Dong knew that the hatred between the two sides had reached an irreconcilable point. After all, Zhu Ling was Zhu Ji's biological daughter, and the Zhu family would be held responsible sooner or later.

The only difference is which one, it or the Duke's Mansion, will be more miserably harmed by Zhu Ling. Perhaps it is both.

As if noticing Lin Dong's gaze, Zhu Ji looked at him and forced a smile:

"Young man, you are really promising at a young age. If you are given time, you will definitely become a giant on the continent. Master Hongchen is so lucky."

When these words came out, even Jing Hongchen couldn't help but be stunned. Could it be that the person who assigned the Zhu family servant to assassinate was someone else? He glanced at her coldly:
"You finally said something that made sense. Stop talking nonsense. We are leaving now. You don't have to see us off."

Lin Dong was also somewhat confused by her sudden words. Could it be that Zhu Ji really didn't know his true identity? That shouldn't be the case. What about those Zhu family retainers? Or was this woman more cunning than he thought?
What Lin Dong didn't know was that the Zhu family retainers that Zhu Ling had called upon were mainly used to deal with enemies. As for why they had made enemies, it was because Zhu Ling didn't want more people to know about his ugly jealousy.

Zhu Da didn't even bother to explain in detail, and Zhu Ji didn't bother to ask. After all, this kind of thing was not uncommon. But who knew that she would get herself into so much trouble!
After sending Lin Dong and the others away, Zhu Ji walked back to the living room and angrily said, "Zhu Da, come out here. How did the young lady become an enemy of such a young child?"

Zhu Da knelt on the ground, his eyes rolling. After hesitating for a while, he replied in a deep voice: "Madam, the young lady has told us not to leak this matter."

Zhu Ji's originally ugly expression was distorted by anger. She swung her palm and hit Zhu Da. The latter groaned in pain. Zhu Ji then said coldly:

"As long as I am alive, it will not be her turn to be the head of this family. Who do you plan to listen to?"

Zhu Da immediately kowtowed several times and replied in a hurry:

"Reporting to the master, Lin Dong's original name was Dai Yuhao. He was the illegitimate son of the White Tiger Duke and a maid. The mistress occasionally made things difficult for them in the mansion. After the maid passed away, she sent several of us close officials to hunt down Lin Dong many times."

Even though he had expressed the matter very tactfully, Zhu Ji, an old monster who had lived for decades, knew what was going on as soon as she heard it.

Lin Dong and Zhu Ling are now sworn enemies, so the difficulties they cause must not be accidental. Moreover, the death of Lin Dong's mother is most likely related to Zhu Ling.

Just when she was feeling a little worried, a huge explosion was heard. Zhu Ji was stunned for a moment and quickly rushed out of the room. Looking at the mess in the Zhu Mansion, she couldn't help but curse:

"The people of the Sun-Moon Empire are indeed war maniacs. I have been so humble, but they still attacked our Zhu Mansion!"

A maid ran over tremblingly and reported:

"Master, we were just attacked by three Eight-Fixed Soul Guided Cannonballs. Although the Great Elder and the Titled Douluo of the Royal Family each blocked one, one still exploded in the Zhu Mansion. We suffered quite a few casualties in our mansion."

Zhu Ji screamed in anger: "Do you still need to tell me? Do you think I'm blind?"

"I dare not, but the other party said it was a gift for us, and asked us to study it carefully. It is much more useful than those rubbish on the black market."

Zhu Ji was so angry at these words that her blood rushed to her head and she almost fainted. She trembled and yelled, "Get out! Get out!"

After seeing the maid leave, Zhu Ji's eyes gradually became extremely fierce, and she gritted her teeth and roared:

“Lin Dong, just wait for me. Don’t let me catch you alone. My Zhu family’s shadow guards will be like leeches on the tarsal bone. When they find an opportunity, they will kill you with one strike.”

After seeing the dusty royal representative again, he forced out a wronged smile:

"Mr. Envoy, you must report this to His Majesty. My Zhu family has done a lot for the empire. We can't deny us the cultivation resources promised to us just because they sacrificed their lives for the country." The envoy's face twitched, and he nodded slightly and smiled:

"No problem, Marquise. I see the Zhu family's patriotism and I will give you nothing less."

"Thank you very much, Your Excellency the Envoy."

On the other side, looking at the flames rising from the Zhu Mansion, Lin Dong's eyes were indifferent. Since they would be mortal enemies sooner or later, although the other party's attitude was very servile, he always felt a little uncomfortable leaving like this, so he simply let Jing Hongchen and the other two add some incentives to the other party first.

Xiao Hongchen pulled the corner of his mouth excitedly:
"It has to be you, Lin Dong. Once your automatic perspective is turned on, even the soul guide of a fool can hit accurately. That old woman thought that we would not beat her up just because she said a few nice words. She is overthinking."

Meng Hongchen looked at Xiao Hongchen who was getting a little carried away, and spoke quietly as usual:
"It wasn't you who fired the shot, why are you so excited?"

Xiao Hongchen was already immune to this, so he ignored Meng Hongchen's complaints, turned around and looked at Lin Dong and asked:

"So where are we going next, Lin Dong?"

Lin Dong was stunned for a moment and then smiled faintly: "Why are you asking me? Ask the dean."

"Grandpa will definitely say that whatever you say is what it is, so I might as well ask you directly."

Jing Hongchen patted him on the head heavily: "You little bastard, you still dare to make fun of me now?"

"I'm not wrong, Grandpa."

Looking at Xiao Hongchen's resentful eyes, Lin Dong smiled softly and said:
"Since Emperor Xingluo is avoiding fighting, why don't we go directly to the Douling Empire? Emperor Xingluo has experienced the last competition, so he probably doesn't have many outstanding students. We shouldn't waste time here."

Jing Hongchen nodded: "In that case, I will write a letter to disgust this dog emperor."

The next day, when Lin Dong and his party arrived at the Douling Empire, a letter written by Jing Hongchen himself was delivered to the Xingluo Palace.

Xu Jiawei opened the envelope and stared at it. The faint ink on the letter made him furious:
"I am personally writing to the Emperor Xingluo. My Sun Moon student Zhufu has returned with a great victory in the competition. I understand that your country is eager to win the Douling Spirit Competition, which has led to a decline in talent. In addition, the competition schedule is tight, so I am going to the Douling Empire to seek advice. Don't worry about it."

"Asshole! Provocation! Naked provocation! This damn Jing Hongchen, is he saying that I have no one available in Xingluo and that he will end up losing more than he gains? Damn it! Someone, deliver the urgent message to Shrek.

You must find Xuanzi. These three level nine soul masters of Sun and Moon, no matter how much it costs, I am determined to let them stay in their original three kingdoms forever."

A man who looked like an envoy knelt down, kowtowed, said "yes", and quickly ran out of the hall.

The Prime Minister then stepped forward and reminded softly, "Your Majesty, please take care of your body. Do we really want to keep these three level nine soul masters? Do you know how much this will cost? The Sun Moon Empire might even go to war with us."

Xu Jiawei snorted coldly: "As long as we can get Shrek's support, we may not be able to keep them all. Moreover, as long as we can kill them all, do you think Sun and Moon still have the courage to start a war?
Peace cannot be achieved by praying. We must make the Sun and the Moon lose the ability and courage to go to war. I have made up my mind and there is no need to persuade the Prime Minister anymore.

As long as Shrek agrees, we will immediately organize a secret recall of 80% of the Titled Douluo on the front line, and cooperate with the Shrek elders to kill the Sun and Moon people with thunderous means. "

The Prime Minister's dry face trembled slightly. He did not expect Xu Jiawei to be so decisive. It seemed that the Sun Moon Empire pushed him too hard, causing him to want to fight to the death. He could only nod and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty is wise."

Xu Jiawei's eyes flashed with a fierce cold light, and he murmured in a low voice:
"You guys pushed me too hard. I'm afraid it's not my turn to be the king of a fallen country."

Douling Empire, Lingdou City.

Lin Dong and the others put away their flying soul guides and looked at the people in the lead. They could vaguely sense how powerful the other party was.

The leader was an old man with a lively look, followed by four middle-aged men with extraordinary strength and elegant clothes.

Lin Dong took a quick glance and found that the four people were at least at the level of Titled Douluo. They probably wanted to show off their national strength to shock the Sun and Moon people.

Jing Hongchen walked forward slowly and nodded gently: "Tianyang Douluo."

"Dean Hongchen, and Starry Sky Douluo, Director Jiayi, His Majesty is busy with state affairs and government affairs. I hope you three will not think that I, Douluo, am neglecting you."

Jing Hongchen smiled politely and waved his hand:
"How could that be? With Tianyang Douluo's status in the Douluo Empire, how could he neglect us? We are just here to exchange ideas."

Tianyang Douluo nodded, and after exchanging pleasantries with Ye Yulin and Lin Jiayi, he looked at Lin Dong and the others behind him and said with a smile:
"Haha, these three must be the geniuses of your country. They are indeed young and promising. At this age, they are already outstanding. Dean Hongchen is so lucky."

Lin Dong and the other two looked at him and bowed politely. After all, it was still a peaceful time and they did not have many grudges with the Douling Empire, so they naturally had to observe proper etiquette.

"You are too polite, Tianyang Douluo. Let's talk about the competition. Where are your contestants? It's time to bring them out for us to see."
