Douluo: Divine Fire Xuanyuan

Chapter 168 The Decree of Emperor Sun and Moon

The Imperial Palace of the Sun and Moon Empire.

Meng Hongchen and others have reported all the important information about this competition.

If the 100,000-year-old embryo was only a loss for Mingdetang, then for Yuwen Tuo, it involved the royal family's reputation. He immediately came to the palace to meet His Majesty.

"Your Majesty, I, Jing Hongchen, pay my respects to you." Jing Hongchen bowed slightly to the Sun and Moon Emperor.

Although this is the Sun-Moon Continent, and not the previous Douluo Continent, the status of Titled Douluo is still noble. One does not have to kneel when meeting the emperor. Such a salute is already considered to be very respectful to the emperor.

Not to mention that Jing Hongchen is one of the only four ninth-level soul masters currently on the mainland. Although he is only level ninety-four, his combat power is comparable to that of a Super Douluo when he fights with the help of soul guides.

"My dear, please don't be so polite. I have come to the palace today on purpose. What is the important matter?" The Sun and Moon Emperor raised his hand slightly. He was quite polite to Jing Hongchen.

"Your Majesty, I am here regarding Yuwen Tuo's matter," said Jing Hongchen.

Emperor Sun and Moon subconsciously asked, "Who is Yuwen Tuo?"

"Your Majesty, you don't know?" Jing Hongchen was stunned. Although he knew that the emperor was not very wise, after investigation, he found that even Mingdetang, an external force outside the royal family, knew about it, but the emperor was completely ignorant of it. That was his own son.

It seems that Crown Prince Xu Tianran did not report to him in detail.

But this also means that his control over the court has been lost too much. Otherwise, even if Xu Tianran didn't say anything, there would always be other officials who would come to report.

"Your Majesty, Yuwen Tuo is the biological son of you and Princess Xu Yueran of Xingluo. He was abandoned by Xu Yueran in the Tianhun Empire when he was a child. Later, he awakened his fire martial soul and possessed a powerful talent as high as the innate level 20, but was captured by Shrek." Jing Hongchen told the whole story.

Now that Shrek’s persecution of Yuwen Tuo is known throughout the continent, there is no need to hide it.

"What? Flame martial soul, innate level 20?" The Sun and Moon Emperor was stunned. No one had ever told him that his son who was away from home had such a high talent.

No, not only is he talented, his combat ability is also extremely strong. Although he only has three rings, he was able to instantly defeat Xiao Hongchen, who has five rings, and suppress Ma Rulong, who has six rings, in the Soul Master Competition. He even broke Ma Rulong's seventh-level soul guide with one finger.

What a genius this is.

Xu Tianran had told him before that his son’s martial spirit was inherited neither from him nor from that woman, which made him think that he was being cheated on.

But although the Flame Martial Soul was not directly inherited by him, the royal bloodline of their Sun-Moon Empire already had the Sun Martial Soul inherited. It must be because of the interference of that woman's bloodline that the Sun Martial Soul was not completely inherited and turned into the Flame Martial Soul.

"My dear, where is my beloved son now?" The Sun-Moon Emperor said in surprise. "Hurry and have him come to see me. Those Shrek bastards actually dared to waste my beloved son for six years. As a father, I will definitely take care of this matter for him."

"Uh, Your Majesty, Yuwen Tuo didn't come to the Sun Moon Empire." Jing Hongchen said helplessly, "He followed Jiang Peng from the Sky Soul Empire. He must have chosen to join the Sky Soul Empire."

The Sun and Moon Emperor's eyes widened. "What? My son joined the Sky Soul Empire. Doesn't he know his own life experience?"

Jing Hongchen shook his head. "No, from his conversation with my granddaughter Meng Hongchen, he should have guessed something. However, he seems to have some aversion to our Sun Moon Empire."

"Asshole!" The emperor was immediately furious. "This unfilial son, having already guessed his own life story, actually refused to come to see me, his father, and even betrayed his country and joined the enemy. What a traitor! Ahem! Ahem!!"

As he spoke, the old emperor suddenly started coughing violently. His health had been getting worse in recent years, so power was gradually handed over to the hands of Crown Prince Xu Tianran.

Being angered by Yuwen Tuo immediately increased his anger by three points. If Yuwen Tuo was an ordinary guy, he might not be so angry, but the talent and combat power he showed at this moment were top-notch monsters even in Shrek Academy, and this was after he had been wasted for six years.

What if he had practiced perfectly for six years? I'm afraid there wouldn't be anyone among the younger generation on the mainland who could rival him.

But how could he not be angry when such a royal genius actually joined a hostile country?

Not only was he angry at Yuwen Tuo, he was also angry at Crown Prince Xu Tianran for his incompetence. He had been looking for someone for so many years without any results, and now he had released him to another country.

"My dear!"

"I'm here." Jing Hongchen replied.

"I have a favor to ask of you. Use the power of your Mingde Hall and do everything you can to get that, that..." Halfway through his words, the emperor seemed to have forgotten his son's name.

Jing Hongchen spoke for him, "Yuwen Tuo."

"Yes, yes, Yuwen Tuo, humph, what a lousy name! He chose it himself, right? Well, he's been living abroad and didn't know his own surname before. I won't blame him this time. When he returns, he'll change his surname to Xu. My dear, use the power of your Mingde Hall to bring him back to the Sun and Moon Empire."

This time the emperor was a little smarter and did not entrust the task to Crown Prince Xu Tianran.

It is obvious that Xu Tianran is not only unwilling to do this, but even pretends to obey it but actually disobeys it.

Nine years ago, he colluded with an evil soul master and slaughtered Yuwen Tuo's entire village in the name of looking for his brother. His purpose was probably to kill him.

Later, he instigated trouble in front of his father, the emperor.

If it were handed over to Xu Tianran again, even if Yuwen Tuo was brought back, he would only be a corpse.

"I can only try my best." Jing Hongchen didn't dare to agree too firmly.

After all, Yuwen Tuo is now in the Tianhun Empire, and the Sun and Moon Empire cannot reach such a long distance.

After asking to leave in front of the emperor, Jing Hongchen prepared to leave the palace.

But he didn't expect that as soon as he walked out of the inner city palace gate, he saw a man in a wheelchair being pushed towards him.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince!" Jing Hongchen bowed slightly to Xu Tianran.

"Master Hongchen, have you just come out of our father's study?" Xu Tianran asked.

"Yes, the Soul Master Competition has just ended. I failed to manage the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy well, which caused the academy to lose to Shrek again. Therefore, I came here specifically to apologize to Your Majesty." Jing Hongchen said.

"Oh, I heard that the reason for this defeat is that Shrek has a top monster named Yuwen Tuo. He can kill Xiao Hongchen in one move, fly like a dragon with one punch, and destroy a seventh-level soul guide with one finger. And he is my younger brother, right?" Xu Tianran was not as ignorant as the emperor. On the contrary, his information was very complete.

Moreover, he was too lazy to play along with Jing Hongchen, so he went straight to the point and revealed Yuwen Tuo's identity.
