Douluo: The Unrivaled Evil Nightmare Devil

Chapter 327 Speak! Look at my eyes!

Xu Jiawei was in a bit of a headache.

One second, he was on the golden beach next to Hanhai City, drinking iced coconut juice and sunbathing on the beach. The next second, he was dragged back to Xingluo Palace, having traveled thousands of miles in the same spot.

The brother-in-law was confused and very dissatisfied.

However, when he saw the person in front of him who was holding his sister, and whose features were slightly different but whose identity he could recognize at a glance, he was about to open his mouth to say something like "birds sing and flowers bloom," but he kept his mouth shut.

Can't be bothered, can't be bothered.

The fact that this person could make his younger sister, a Limit Douluo, act so submissive, coupled with the fact that he could drag him back to the palace from across half of the Star Luo Empire while he was sunbathing by the sea, shows just how powerful he is...

In this way, Xu Jiawei couldn't help but recall the words he had said when he first met Ye Qing, who was using the alias 'Ye Xuan'.

"His demeanor is quite good, but his strength is..."

That's way too outrageous!
Since Ye Qing didn't speak, his brother-in-law, who hadn't seen him for almost twenty years, was unsure of the situation and turned his questioning gaze to his empress sister.

Xu Jiujiu didn't let him down and helped him out of the predicament.

It's this enclosure...

Xu Jiawei preferred not to understand.

"Brother, your vacation is over," Xu Jiujiu said with a smile.

"Hmm?" Xu Jiawei was slightly taken aback, then his expression immediately became wary. "Jiujiu, what do you want this old man to do now? Let me tell you, my brother has already abdicated and is now just a wealthy old man who likes to travel."

"Don't expect me to handle state affairs for you. Your sister-in-law is still waiting for me to return to Hanhai City!"

Then, the next second, a middle-aged woman dressed in a conservative swimsuit, along with a boy and a girl also dressed in swimsuits, fell out of the torn space rift once again.

Xu Jiawei: ...

"Brother, look, Sister-in-law and the others are back. Can we rest easy now?" Xu Jiujiu's sweet and charming smile looked like a hideous grotesque face to Xu Jiawei at this moment.

"Do I still have the right to refuse?" Xu Jiawei sighed.

"No." Xu Jiujiu uttered the two most heartless words in the gentlest tone.

Next, Xu Jiujiu first had her sister-in-law take the two children away, and then she told Xu Jiawei about Ye Qing's thoughts and how she needed to find a way to become a god and would not have time to continue dealing with court affairs.

"So, Your Majesty, this throne can only be returned to you. Xiao Ling is not yet capable of succeeding to the throne. You don't want our Star Luo Empire to fall into turmoil because of an unstable throne, do you?" Xu Jiujiu said with a smile.

"...It's possible, but Jiu Jiu, isn't there something off about what you're saying?" Xu Jiawei smacked his lips and suddenly felt a soreness in his teeth.

Of course, just kidding.

After pondering for a while, Xu Jiawei nodded in agreement without much hesitation: "I can tell the priorities of things. Compared to your matters, the throne of the Star Luo Empire is important, but it can be put on hold for a while."

"Since that's the case, then you may go. But don't pass the throne to me. There's no precedent in the Star Luo Empire for handing the throne over to the previous ruler. I'll take over for a while, and once Xiao Ling has grown up, I'll pass it on to him directly."

Xiao Ling is Xu Jiawei's son, the direct descendant of the eldest prince. His real name is Xu Xingling. His martial soul is naturally the pure Star Crown, and his innate soul power is level nine. Although it is not full innate soul power, it is still not bad.

On the contrary, his younger sister, Xu Yingjing, not only possessed the same Star Crown Martial Soul, but also had higher innate soul power than her brother, being at full innate soul power. However, in Xu Jiawei's view...

Even if Xu Yingjing has better talent, the most suitable person to inherit the throne in the end is still Xu Xingling. Even with Empress Xu Jiujiu as a shining example, there is only one like her.

Xu Jiawei wasn't confident he could find another god-like son-in-law for his daughter.

Unless... Tang San possesses him!
cough cough...

The transition of imperial power was very smooth.

After all, the person who became the 'Regent' was the former emperor of the Star Luo Empire, and he was already very familiar with the noble ministers of the Star Luo Empire. He quickly settled into a normal relationship between the emperor and his ministers.

Or rather, these nobles and courtiers actually preferred spending time with Xu Jiawei to Empress Xu Jiujiu.

Xu Jiawei will also take into account the issues of conflicting interests and power struggles, and spend some time balancing them to create a relatively stable situation.

In Xu Jiawei's view, this is what emperors do. To stabilize imperial power, it is necessary to delegate power and make concessions appropriately. If a problem can be solved in a gentle way, it should not cause too much turmoil. This is how emperors throughout history have solved problems.

But Xu Jiujiu is different!

With both power and a powerful backer, she learned some of her brother Xu Jiawei's imperial strategies from their daily interactions, but her approach to things was far more radical than Xu Jiawei's.

For example, there are two forces that have become unbalanced for some reason.

If Xu Jiawei were faced with this situation, he would choose to weaken the one with higher weight slightly, then place the weakened one on the side with lower weight, give the weakened side a sweet treat, and then strike back at the side that benefited.

But if it were Xu Jiujiu, she would have to tell the story of an empress.

As long as they don't cause trouble, the Empress will pretend she didn't see it. But if they annoy her, she'll cut them both down until the balance of power on the scales is restored, until neither side dares to cause any more trouble.

The main reason is that after she cut off the profits, a portion of the profits would be distributed to other meritorious officials, directly saving the royal family a large sum of money.

They used the money of court officials to reward those high-quality cattle and horses.

what?
You're not happy about it?

Come on, look at my level 99 cultivation, and say it again, are you willing or not?

Speak! Look into my eyes!

While dealing with an empress like this might prevent trouble if they don't cause any, they would definitely miss Xu Jiawei, who was gentler and would provide them with better fodder when necessary!

Therefore, after Xu Jiawei returned to the familiar court, he found that his ministers seemed to have become more reasonable and agreeable.

Ye Qing and Xu Jiujiu arrived in Shrek City together.

Since the goal is to help Xu Jiujiu become a god, it's impossible to overlook Zhang Lexuan. Helping one is the same as helping two, there's no difference. In any case, he needs time to integrate and absorb the power of the Dragon God's position.

Let's just use this transition period to train them all into goddesses.
