Douluo's Soul Power increases by two levels every year

Chapter 545 Sweet Talk by Old Bai

Putting aside Dai Mubai's predicament, even if they dawdle for nine months, the Star Luo Iron Cavalry should have reached the outskirts of the capital by now.

Looking at the magnificent palace before him, Dai Mubai rolled his eyes and strolled leisurely toward the main hall. The Kingdom of Mengdao was not powerful, but it had a big reputation. The extravagance and decadence of the capital city were like two different worlds from the poverty of the people in other parts of the Kingdom of Mengdao. Just this kingdom alone made Dai Mubai almost think it was the imperial capital of an empire!

However, Dai Mubai did not want to say anything about it.

To put it simply, the territory of the Mengdao Kingdom already belongs to the Xingluo Empire. There's no need to destroy this magnificent and luxurious palace; that would be too wasteful and too formalistic. Dai Mubai would rather transform the kingdom into a leisurely palace for the future.

Anyway, the Kingdom of Mengdao is far on the edge of the continent, so it can be considered a place that is not subject to worldly strife!

It has to be said that the Mengdao Kingdom is truly disaffected. Along the way, Dai Mubai has not seen a single decent noble minister. Those who could run away have already run away, leaving only palace maids and guards who are incapable of leaving the palace on their own.

Of course, the reason why not a single noble minister could be seen was that, apart from those who had run away, most of them had already been made an example of by the Star Luo Iron Cavalry!

Especially those royal families, they were wiped out long ago.

There's nothing to feel aggrieved about. Born into the royal family of Mengdao, they are naturally superior to others and enjoy the most comfortable environment and resources in the entire kingdom. They should be prepared to be buried with them. Even if they are truly innocent, Dai Mubai did not leave any survivors!

Cutting the weeds completely—that's the source of their self-destruction!

Now, only King Mengdao remains of the royal family within this vast palace!

This king was quite principled; he neither begged for mercy nor fled. Even when the Star Luo Iron Cavalry breached the capital, he remained seated on his throne.

Of course, this was also because he knew that running away was useless. At least waiting to die here would preserve some dignity. Otherwise, the King of Purple Gold would be his example, dying under a hail of knives!

At least if he stays here obediently, he still has a chance to meet the Crown Prince of Xingluo!

At the same time, Dai Mubai had already arrived outside the palace hall, but before he could even step inside, a frenzied roar came from within: "Star Luo people! You have no right to kill me! I am the King of Mengdao! As long as I live, the Mengdao Kingdom will not be destroyed! You lowly commoners have no right to raise your swords against royalty!"

Knowing his death was imminent, King Mengdao was no longer afraid. In front of the many Star Luo Iron Cavalry, he shouted recklessly, displaying an air of arrogance.

The key point is just as he said. According to the rules of Douluo Continent, when two countries are at war, even the king of the defeated country can only have his life or death decided by the supreme ruler of the victorious country. In the present, only Dai Mubai and the Star Luo Emperor can decide the life or death of the King of Mengdao!

As long as King Mondo follows the rules, no one else may overstep them before his death!

Therefore, no matter how angry King Mengdao's words made the Star Luo Iron Cavalry, they could only watch helplessly as he arrogantly roared and shouted.

Dai Mubai, standing outside the hall, raised an eyebrow, but showed no anger.

To hold a grudge against a dying man is rather petty. Dai Mubai just felt that this King Mengdao was a bit too bold!

The reason why the Star Luo Iron Cavalry did not attack him was not because of any unwritten treaty on the continent—there was never any such rule, written in black and white, that soldiers of the victorious nation could not kill the king of the defeated nation!

The reason why the Star Luo Iron Cavalry did not move against the King of Mengdao was not because of some vague treaty, but because of their respect for Dai Mubai!

Since Dai Mubai wants to see King Mengdao, King Mengdao should live until Dai Mubai appears!

But King Montauk knew he was doomed and had no qualms about dying.

In order to make the common people of the Mengdao Kingdom submit as soon as possible, Dai Mubai had already made it clear that the King of Mengdao was going to die. The King of Mengdao had no intention of begging for mercy. Rather than being cut down silently, he might as well go crazy one last time. At least after he died, when he saw his princes and grandsons, he could shamelessly say that he had once single-handedly driven back dozens of Xingluo Iron Cavalry, scaring no one in Xingluo into daring to take a step forward!

"Royal blood flows in my veins; this is my kingdom, or else I will be buried with it!"

King Mengdao continued his frenzied roars, but this time, one of the Star Luo Iron Cavalrymen finally couldn't hold back any longer!

They respect Dai Mubai, not some damned Mengdao royal family!

In the Star Luo Empire, the royal family of the Mengdao Kingdom is not even as powerful as a baron!

This Star Luo Iron Cavalryman, clad in Star Luo black armor, didn't make any big moves. He simply grunted and slammed his broadsword on the ground. The gleaming blade flashed across King Mengdao's face, instantly extinguishing the king's arrogance. His once haughty body slumped onto the throne with a thud, his face filled with terror!

In the end, King Mengdao was just a good-for-nothing. What confidence could he have in the face of a group of iron cavalry with a murderous aura?

Seeing King Mengdao's pathetic state, the Star Luo Iron Cavalry let out mocking laughter.

Amidst a chorus of laughter, King Montau, his old face flushed crimson, felt insulted and suddenly screamed, "Sarah! Kill them for me! This is my final decree!"

At this moment, Dai Mubai, who was outside the palace, noticed that there was a young girl beside King Mengdao.

This girl, however, caught Dai Mubai's eye!

It wasn't that the girl was particularly amazing; even if she were, Dai Mubai wouldn't care about her now. It was just that the girl's talent made Dai Mubai take notice—she looked to be under twenty years old, yet she was already a level forty-three Soul Master. In the remote and impoverished Mengdao Kingdom, this was like a phoenix rising from a chicken coop!

It's clear that this girl didn't receive a very good education in the Kingdom of Mengdao, which means that her talent is no less than what she appears to be!

However, this girl seems to have been brainwashed by King Mengdao. It's hard to say whether to call her loyal or foolish, as she has remained by King Mengdao's side until now.

At this moment, King Montau gave the order, and the girl named Sarah trembled all over, her eyes filled with hesitation.

She didn't know what to do. On one hand, she was grateful for King Mengdao's past kindness and had grown to respect him over time. On the other hand, she was afraid of death, which made her unable to make up her mind for a moment. Even if a young girl's mind was immature, she could see that King Mengdao was already a dying man!

If she had listened to King Mengdao's words, she wouldn't have been far from death!

"An incompetent king uses worldly power and empty titles to make you obey his every command; the Star Luo Empire will make you stand up!"

Just as Sarah was hesitating, the man with the target stepped into the hall, and a calm voice slowly rang in Sarah's ears.

Having gone through so much, Dai Mubai is no longer the naive boy who only knew how to stay at the Rose Hotel with the twins. Since he wants to bewitch people, he naturally needs to be prepared!

Dai Mubai didn't think he had the same ability as Han Feng to manipulate emotions with simple words, so he cleverly used the power of the Heavenly Fiend in this voice.

In a sense, malevolent energy can also influence a person's character!

Dai Mubai didn't do anything; he just amplified Sarah's murderous intent towards King Mengdao with his murderous aura!

Sure enough, the moment that voice rang out, Sarah was startled, her eyes became unfocused, and her hesitant gaze gradually hardened, turning into a boiling murderous intent!

As Dai Mubai drew closer, he smiled with satisfaction.

He raised his hand and summoned a Gengjin Heavenly Fiend Halberd, throwing it in front of Sarah. His demonic voice rang in her ears once more: "Take it! Kill this incompetent and tyrannical king, pledge allegiance to the Star Luo Empire, pledge allegiance to me, and be reborn in glory and freedom!"

With Dai Mubai's arrival, the entire hall fell silent, with only Dai Mubai's voice echoing in the air!

Even the once arrogant King Mengdao dared not utter a sound!

Even though Dai Mubai was inciting Sarah to kill him, King Mengdao didn't dare say a word!

An invisible pressure enveloped everyone, as if countless heavenly blades were hanging overhead!

Clang!

Two breaths later, the girl named Sarah decisively picked up the golden halberd surrounded by baleful energy in front of her, turned around and walked towards King Mengdao!

At the same time, Dai Mubai grinned, revealing a satisfied smile!
