Douluo: The Holy Radiance of the Dragon King

Chapter 203 Night Visit to the Imperial Palace, Zhang Geyang, is it because you don't want to raise your soul spirit to 100,000 years?

"I didn't hear everything from Zaixing, but that's roughly what happened: Hu Jie and Zang Xin were pressuring Enci to agree to join forces."

Han Tianyi's voice reached Feng Zaixing's ears, relaying what he had learned from secretly eavesdropping.

It would be a waste for someone at the Divine Origin Realm not to take advantage of their strengths at this time.

"I understand, that's not surprising." Feng Zaixing nodded slightly, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

I knew this day would come sooner or later. Come on, let all the enemies jump out at once. Let's see how many we can take down this time.

into the night.

In the side hall, Dai Tianling and Enci, who were looking worried, discovered that an uninvited guest had arrived.

"It is rather presumptuous of me to arrive so late at night. I hope Your Majesty and Your Majesty the Holy Dragon will not take offense."

Feng Zaixing bowed slightly to the two supreme rulers of the Star Luo Empire, dispelled the spiritual power that concealed him, and revealed his night clothes.

He observed their expressions and mentally compared the information they possessed.

Dai Tianling was momentarily taken aback, but then, displaying the composure of an emperor, he calmly said, "I am delighted that the Envoy of the Wind is willing to come to my palace to discuss important matters; however, I wonder what exactly the Envoy of the Wind wishes to discuss, as it is not appropriate to discuss such matters during the day?"

He was suspicious. Could it be that Feng Zaixing, who was rumored to be always righteous and hateful, was not even willing to wait a day and was in a hurry to kill the entire Green Skull family?

Feng Zaixing shook his head and said, "This matter has already been mentioned in public, why would I bring it up again in the middle of the night? Both I and the Federation delegation believe in His Majesty's royal promise."

"The main reason for this trip is for His Majesty the Holy Dragon."

His gaze fell on Enci, one of only two Limit Douluo in the Star Luo Empire, and the only four-word Battle Armor Master, and a smile appeared on his lips.

The opponent possesses the Holy Dragon Martial Soul. Before the age of thirty, his cultivation was slow, and he was only a Soul Venerable. After the age of thirty, he progressed by leaps and bounds. He became a Soul Emperor in five years, a Titled Soul in five years, a Super Douluo in five years, and a Level 98 Super Douluo in another five years.

Afterwards, he completed the three-word battle armor on his own, and after reaching the limit, he nurtured the three-word battle armor into a four-word battle armor, an experience that can be called a legend.

Enci looked confused, seemingly never expecting that he was the target, and asked with a smile, "What does the envoy mean?"

Feng Zaixing didn't want to beat around the bush and went straight to the point: "I know Shi Tang hates me to the bone. He will definitely be assassinated when he comes to Xingluo, and perhaps some people from the Spirit Pagoda, as well as the entire Holy Spirit Cult."

"The Star Luo Empire cannot remain unaffected and will inevitably be dragged into it; but I hope you can do your part without actually contributing; it would be even better if you could pass on some intelligence to me."

Enci's pupils contracted slightly, almost suspecting that his conversation during the day had been overheard. Suppressing his shock, he forced himself to remain calm and said, "The envoy is overthinking it. Our country has always upheld good neighborliness and friendship; how could we possibly do such a thing?"

Feng Zaixing raised his head and retorted, "Do you really want me to say that I have special channels to monitor the traitor Hu Jie?"

Enci was speechless for a moment:

This person is just like the legends say, unpredictable and doesn't play by the rules at all, giving no one a chance to play along.

Feng Zaixing said in a clear voice, "I dared to come because I am confident in dealing with them. This matter has nothing to do with Xingluo, so I do not want you to really get involved."

"Otherwise, while it would be more troublesome for me, it would be a catastrophe for you, giving the Federation a reason to start a war for nothing."

"Whether it starts early or late, it's still war. But since you've just taken over Shrek Tang Sect, you definitely hope the war will be delayed as long as possible, and ideally never happen."

Dai Tianling laughed and decided to be frank, saying, "That's right, we are very angry about the Tang Clan's actions, but just as the Tang Clan said, even if we do nothing, your assassination attempt will still become an excuse for the hawks to start a war."

"In the current Federation, the doves are practically non-existent, and even the neutrals have sided with you. You deserve a huge share of the credit for that, don't you?"

Feng Zaixing nodded, admitting it without hesitation: "That's right, I'm an expert in internal strife and external strife; I hate the doves' ideas the most, and I especially hate that they're mouthpieces that the Tang Clan has been supporting. What are we waiting for if we don't kill them?"

"You can blame everything the FBI does on me; because in my opinion, they are no less harmful than evil spirit masters."

"But you need not worry about whether my assassination will become a pretext for war."

Dai Tianling asked, "Why?"

Feng Zaixing looked at the other party and said, "My subordinates and I have not yet entered the high command of the military. If the military starts a war, we will not be able to gain military merits or benefits. Therefore, I will definitely prevent the military from starting a war quickly until I can take power."

"I'm a very rational person. You can think of me as a moderate among hawks. In my eyes, war is just a means to an end, not an outcome I want to pursue. What's the point of fighting a war that brings no benefit?"

"When I come to power and want to help my subordinates improve, I will have no excuse and will simply lead my men to attack."

As soon as he finished speaking, Dai Tianling and Enci's face twitched violently, their expressions frozen, their eyes wide open, unsure of what to say.

You really don't treat us like outsiders, you speak from the bottom of your heart!

After a moment of silence, Dai Tianling spoke again, looking speechless: "You've made yourself so clear, can I understand why I should help you? Just because you can help me kill Green Skull?"

Feng Zaixing shook his head and said, "You can make any conditions that aren't too unreasonable; in addition, I want to give you two a piece of advice. I am clear about my actions and grudges. I can understand that Xingluo was coerced, but if you do your best to help Shi Tang, then I will have no choice but to consider you my mortal enemies."

"When my military might leads me in the future, and my killing intent becomes unbearable, I will not stop certain people from taking radical actions; on the contrary, I will restrain certain madmen among the hawks and use the most gentle means possible to complete the unification of Douluo Star."

"Of course, you can take this as a threat; because if I wanted to, I could go back now and wipe out the Shen family, one of the four major military families, and seize control of the Federal Northern Navy Corps."

Dai Tianling and Enci fell silent once again, the dough moving back and forth, a myriad of emotions surfacing in their hearts.

Powerful, extremely powerful. Feng Zaixing gave them the feeling of a piercing sword, sharp and unparalleled in his strength.

After a long while, the Star Luo rulers and ministers, communicating with each other through mental power, reached a consensus. Dai Tianling said, "We can help you within a limited scope, but I have two conditions: first, you must join forces with us to defeat the Green Skull; second, I hope you can participate in the individual competition of our nation's Soul Master Tournament."

"The first condition is easy to handle. The main problem is intelligence. I don't know where the Green Skull headquarters is."

Feng Zaixing frowned, somewhat puzzled, and said, "It would be simpler for me to agree to the second condition, but do you really want me to participate? Not to boast, but there are very few people in the Star Luo Empire who are qualified to fight me."

Enci thought to himself that this kid was even more arrogant than Long Yue, and laughed, "Of course, but this is a friendly match. I would like to ask you to give my apprentice Long Yue some pointers without using your battle armor mecha."

Feng Zaixing gave him a deep look and said, "Alright, but I'm making it clear beforehand that I will only compete in the finals, and among the people I brought, there are quite a few who can fight against Long Yue."

"Don't worry, if Long Yue is defeated beforehand, I'll ask you to fight him privately," Enci said.

"Okay, I agree." Feng Zaixing readily agreed.

After the two parties agreed, Feng Zaixing took his leave.

An eerie silence fell over the palace, and a bitter smile of headache quickly spread across Enci's face.

"Your Majesty, I now understand why the Tang Clan insisted on eliminating him beforehand. This boy's talent is terrifyingly strong, and his arrogance is terrifyingly strong. He doesn't bother to hide his thoughts at all."

Dai Tianling clicked his tongue and said, "Not bad. I've seen plenty of arrogant geniuses with high talent, but he—he's perfected every aspect."

"When I talked to him, I even felt that I was not facing a young genius, but another powerful and ruthless emperor. It is hard to imagine that the Federation would have such a young man."

Enci sighed and said, "I observe that his spirit is restrained, which may be due to the cultivation of some kind of battle technique related to willpower, thus affecting his temperament; this is how he manifests himself, being strong and domineering, but with a bottom line."

"This kind of mentality is dangerous, but his talent is so high and his cultivation is so fast that this mentality can complement his cultivation; maintaining this mentality can allow him to cultivate by leaps and bounds, so he is unwilling to change it."

"Judging from his appearance, he even seemed to be hoping someone would assassinate him. How strange!"

Dai Tianling asked, "Then, to what extent should we help him?"

Enci said, "I have thought of a suitable candidate. Let him go out and deal with the Tang Clan. Secretly letting them win is one way."

Dai Tianling quickly realized who the other person was referring to, his pupils rolled, and he sighed: "Qilin Douluo, he was once a top genius—"

After bidding farewell to the palace, Feng Zaixing flew directly into the Spirit Pagoda branch, gave his name, and walked through the main gate.

Soon, he met the person in charge here, the deputy tower master of the Spirit Pagoda, the Netherflame Douluo Zhang Geyang.

"Haha, I've heard from Zhangting that you would be visiting our pagoda, but I didn't expect you to arrive so late."

Zhang Geyang's face showed a hint of surprise, and his smile was warm, but in the eyes of Feng Zaixing, who had exceptional mental strength, it was still a mechanical, fake smile.

Feng Zaixing replied softly, "The Xingluo royal family was too hospitable during the day and insisted that we stay. I couldn't refuse, so I had to come to see them in the evening. I hope you won't mind."

"Haha, not at all, not at all, please, please—"

Zhang Geyang immediately flashed an even warmer smile, inviting Feng Zaixing into the tower. However, in the instant he turned around, a fleeting hint of coldness appeared on his face.

Feng Zaixing noticed this and nodded secretly.

Clearly, Zhang Geyang's Spirit Pagoda was also a member of the assassination team. His help to Leng Yaozhu must have greatly displeased Qian Gu Dongfeng, who may also be considering suppressing the Spirit Pagoda once he grows stronger.

This old man cannot stay long. Feng Zaixing had thoughts that were very similar to those of the villain.

Having confirmed the Spirit Pagoda's stance, this trip wasn't a loss.

They went up the tower to talk, and tea and snacks had already been prepared. Zhang Geyang addressed him as "nephew" repeatedly, treating himself as if he were an outsider, and his expression was very enthusiastic.

"Both His Majesty the Heavenly Phoenix and the Lord of the Ancient Tower are on good terms with you, my nephew. It is said that His Majesty the Heavenly Phoenix was able to become a quasi-god largely thanks to your help. I will not hide it from you, my nephew, but I have been stuck at level 98 for a long time. I wonder if you have any advice for me?"

With the true intentions revealed, Zhang Geyang naturally had to carry out his elder brother Qian Gu Dongfeng's order to "collude with all parties, hide in secret, and do his utmost to eliminate Feng Zaixing and his geniuses." However, he also cared about the progress of his personal cultivation.

Of the three tower masters of the Spirit Pagoda, he is still hovering around level ninety-eight, which makes him unsuitable.

Feng Zaixing ate some snacks and said calmly, "I've heard that Tower Master Zhang's soul quality is even higher than that of the Ancient Tower Master. The Zhang family has a profound foundation, how could they not break through their limits?"

Zhang Geyang smiled wryly and said, "That's true, but my talent is not as good as the other two tower masters. My martial soul bloodline can't advance any further, and my potential is almost at its limit."

Those who can break through to the Limit Douluo level do so when they are young, and would not have to wait so many years. Zhang Geyang stared longingly at the Limit Douluo gate in front of him, but could not push it open no matter what, and could only sigh.

Upon hearing this, Feng Zaixing feigned ignorance and said, "The Spirit Transmission Tower has a Spirit Ascension Platform. I think Tower Master Zhang might try elevating the remaining souls to the 100,000-year level?"

Zhang Geyang's face suddenly turned ugly. Was he unwilling to increase the age of his soul spirit?
