Even the blood in his body, which belonged to the angel clan and was supposed to be holy and bright, stagnated at this moment.
She was silent for a moment, and finally relented.
"Your soul guide shouldn't leave any copies, right?"
If there is only one physical photo, then even if things get out of control, there is still room for recovery.
But if that soul guide can copy photos infinitely, then she must be here today and smash it to pieces.
"Don't worry, it's one-of-a-kind." Yan'er explained immediately, "The soul guide doesn't record images through soul power, but rather through a special mineral. After using it once, the mineral will completely shatter into powder, and it can't be reproduced."
As he spoke, Yan'er opened a small drawer on the side of the photo box and poured out some shiny mineral powder from it to prove that what he said was not a lie.
Seeing this, Yu Mengdi felt a little relieved, but she still held out her hand and said, "Even so, leave that thing with me for safekeeping until this is over."
Yu Mengdi's pretty face flushed slightly, and she felt a little ashamed for her behavior that violated the rules of the angel clan.
"Okay~" Seeing her agree, Yan'er immediately handed her the photo with a smile on his face, then affectionately took Yu Mengdi's arm, "But Mengdi, we agreed, don't forget to help me when the time comes."
……
dong dong dong-
There was a knock on the door, and a moment later, the door was opened from the inside.
Xu Jiujiu was still wearing the gorgeous evening gown. Her beautiful eyes looked at Huo Yuhao from top to bottom with a meaningful look, and there was a hint of teasing in her tone.
"I thought you weren't planning on coming tonight."
Huo Yuhao looked a little embarrassed. He didn't respond and just walked into the room.
Before coming over, he took a lot of effort to send Meng Hongchen, who was still a little agitated, back to the rest area where the Sun and Moon Empire team was.
Only after she repeatedly assured him that she would not do anything out of line again did Huo Yuhao rush over.
After passing through the elegantly decorated living room, Xu Jiujiu stopped in front of a mahogany door and knocked gently.
"Please come in."
A calm and majestic voice came from inside the door.
Xu Jiujiu pushed open the door, turned sideways and gestured for Huo Yuhao to come in.
After entering the room, Huo Yuhao sorted himself out and then bowed slightly to the middle-aged man sitting on the sofa in the room.
"Shrek Academy Huo Yuhao, greetings to His Majesty."
Xu Jiawei was wearing a dark golden casual robe. His face was somewhat similar to Xu Jiujiu, but his eyes were much deeper.
He raised his hand to support her, with a gentle smile on his face.
"No need to be so polite, please take a seat."
As he spoke, he personally picked up the teapot on the coffee table and brewed a cup of hot tea for Huo Yuhao. When Huo Yuhao sat down opposite him, Xu Jiawei's eyes were filled with undisguised admiration and he took the initiative to bring up the topic.
"As expected of a top disciple of Shrek Academy, now that I see him, he is truly a rare talent."
Previously, she had only heard Xu Jiujiu describe her thoughts after meeting him, but now seeing him up close and personal, with the instinct derived from his astrological talent brought by his Star Crown Martial Soul, she truly felt the extraordinary nature of this young man.
It is a kind of introverted yet bottomless potential.
He could almost conclude that with the other party's potential, it would be easy for him to reach the realm of Super Douluo in the future, and he might even be able to touch the realm of Extreme Douluo.
Not to mention, there was a ninth-level soul engineer standing behind the other party.
If we can win over these two people and make them work for the Xingluo Empire, it will be a real blessing for the country.
Thinking of this, Xu Jiawei became more enthusiastic.
"Your Majesty is so complimentary."
Looking at Huo Yuhao's neither humble nor arrogant appearance, Xu Jiawei remembered what Xu Jiujiu said, about the girl from the Hongchen family who seemed to fall in love with Huo Yuhao at first sight.
He picked up the teacup and took a sip, his mind already pondering something. However, he didn't show it on his face, and continued slowly, "I should have mentioned this to you before. Regarding Master Lingbing, our Xingluo Imperial Family is very sincere."
We can hire him directly as the dean of the Soul Guidance Department of our Xingluo Royal Academy, and all the rare metals in our royal treasury will be available to him without limit. As long as he can establish an effective Soul Guidance training system for our Soul Guidance Department."
Huo Yuhao's eyes flickered slightly.
Ling Bing was just an identity he used externally, and it was even more impossible for him to serve as the dean of the Soul Guidance Department of Xingluo Royal Academy, so he responded in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. My teacher has always been obsessed with the research of soul guides and I'm afraid he is not interested in a position like the dean. However, I don't think he would refuse a normal business transaction."
Xu Jiawei's face showed a hint of regret when he heard Huo Yuhao's words. But he was the ruler of a country after all, so he quickly calmed down and changed the topic.
"That's true. I can't force it. But as the Emperor of Xingluo, I'm always worried about domestic affairs."
Xu Jiawei sighed, his eyes filled with worry.
"I heard earlier that Dai Huabin, the second son of the White Tiger Duke's mansion, had someone assassinate a disciple of a Sea God Pavilion elder. Now, the White Tiger Duke's eldest son, Dai Yueheng, has been seriously injured and is likely unable to participate in this Soul Master Competition.
As Dai Hao's older brother, I'm genuinely worried, fearing that the Duke's Mansion, the cornerstone of our Xingluo Empire, will never recover. Yuhao, do you have any opinions on this? Or, in other words, do you have any solutions?"
Before Xian Lin'er arrived, Xu Jiawei would naturally not be so eager to discuss these national affairs with a child.
But judging from the information currently available, Huo Yuhao's importance to Shrek Academy is probably far beyond anyone's imagination.
The only thing he couldn't understand was why Dai Huabin and Dai Yuheng, the two sons of the White Tiger Duke, would both want to deal with him.
Do they all feel that their lives are too smooth and they have to make things more difficult for themselves?
Huo Yuhao picked up the teacup, took a sip of the tea, and looked at the worried look on Xu Jiawei's face, but he didn't rush to speak.
For him now, with Gu Yuena around, it would be easy for him to wipe out the White Tiger Duke's Mansion from this world. No one would even know who did it afterwards.
But the result of doing so is just leaving behind a huge mess.
The silent disappearance of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion will inevitably have a direct impact on the Western Army Group, which has been firmly controlled by the Duke's Mansion.
If a problem occurs on the border, it will probably directly lead to unrest within the Xingluo Empire. Coupled with the Sun and Moon Empire, which has been eyeing it covetously, the chain reaction will only implicate countless innocent people.
Huo Yuhao would naturally not be so cruel as to reach that level.
If there was a simple and safe way to solve the problem of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, he would naturally choose to do so.
The only thing we need to understand now is what the attitude of the Xingluo Emperor is.
Is he really worried about this as he said, or does he have other ideas?
After figuring this out, Huo Yuhao put down the teacup in his hand. Instead of answering Xu Jiawei's question directly, he asked:
"I heard that the current emperor of the Sun-Moon Empire is seriously ill and has long lost the vigor of his early years. He also advocates peace in diplomacy, and even the majority of his people do not want war.
But strangely, the people of the Sun-Moon Empire still seem to harbor considerable hatred for the Star Luo Empire. It can even be said that they regard the Star Luo Empire as their number one imaginary enemy."
Chapter 153 There are two suns in the Xingluo Empire
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's sudden question, Xu Jiawei's expression froze.
As the Emperor of Xingluo, how could he not know what was going on?
It was that fellow Dai Hao. In order to gain merit and consolidate his position in the Western Army Group, he would secretly stir up trouble from time to time, harassing the border towns of the Sun and Moon Empire and forcing the other side to forcibly recruit civilians to join the army for resistance.
As the Emperor of Xingluo, he couldn't say much about this behavior.
For the soldiers of the Western Army Group, being able to gain military merit through war is an important channel for their promotion.
As for the people in the Xingluo Empire, they only knew that Duke Baihu had once again led his army to victory against the Sun-Moon Empire.
Over time, Dai Hao's prestige among the army and the people steadily surpassed that of the emperor himself. Even on the western border, there was a ridiculous situation where people only knew about the Duke of White Tiger but not the Emperor of Star Luo.
As for the Duke of White Tiger, he just has to think about provoking the Sun and Moon Empire from time to time, and as the Emperor of Xing Luo, he has to consider a lot.
If it weren't for that ancestor of his who had a sudden idea to give the White Tiger family the title of hereditary duke, he wouldn't be so restricted as he is now. He would have sent the National Protector Douluo to shake up the White Tiger Duke's Mansion long ago.
Now that he saw that the White Tiger Duke's Mansion was showing signs of decline, Xu Jiawei naturally wanted to sound out more information from Huo Yuhao and see what Shrek Academy, which was behind him, thought about this.
After all, Shrek Academy is a problem that all three Douluo empires have to face, but the White Tiger Duke's Mansion is something that his Xingluo royal family has to deal with alone.
Being able to use Shrek Academy to resolve the issue of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, he, as the Emperor of Xingluo, naturally applauded.
Thinking of this, Xu Jiawei's eyes flickered slightly, and then he sighed softly and said, "Yuhao, I shouldn't have said too much about these things to you. Our Xingluo Royal Family's foreign policy is naturally based on peace.
But you should also know that imperial power is difficult to extend to the countryside. Although I am the Emperor of Xingluo, I need to stay in Xingluo's capital. Naturally, my control over the various borders is not as strong as that of the local army group leaders.
Often, as soon as we receive news of tense military situation at the border, the war will break out on the second day, or even end on the third day. This is one of the reasons why we want to invite Master Lingbing.
I hope he can develop a soul guide for the empire that can communicate over long distances, so that my message can be delivered quickly and accurately to the heads of the various army groups."
Huo Yuhao naturally understood the meaning of Xu Jiawei's words.
Although he did not specify who it was, anyone with a little understanding of the internal power structure of the Xingluo Empire would understand.
The east and south of the Xingluo Empire are both coastal areas, and the army is mainly composed of the Western Army Group and the Northern Army Group.
Among them, the Western Army Group responsible for resisting the Sun-Moon Empire was firmly controlled by the White Tiger Duke's Mansion.
In addition, the Xingluo Empire still uses outdated communication methods such as scouts.
Even if he, the emperor, sent a Titled Douluo to deliver the message, it would take one or two hours to travel a distance of thousands of miles.
In the previous life, the Sun-Moon Empire, after developing satellite soul guides, could transmit information freely within a range of 500 miles.
By connecting multiple satellite soul guides in series, even long-distance communication of tens of thousands of miles is not difficult.
Xu Jiawei's words vaguely pointed out that there are two suns in the Xingluo Empire, and he, the Xingluo Emperor, has suffered in the White Tiger Duke's Mansion for a long time.
After understanding Xu Jiawei's attitude, the next things naturally became much simpler.
Huo Yuhao didn't want to argue with him any further, so he took out a dagger from the storage space and placed it on the coffee table.
"I think Your Majesty is not unfamiliar with this. By the way, I now have the same last name as my mother."
Xu Jiawei looked at the special-made White Tiger Dagger, his eyes flashed with brilliance, and his breathing stagnated.
"So that's how it is. I should have thought of it earlier..."
The Xingluo royal family, who had secret guards stationed in the Duke of White Tiger's mansion, naturally understood what this dagger represented.
But he never imagined that the young man with spiritual eyes who was only at the first level of innate soul power back then could grow to this level now.
Judging from the information obtained from Shrek Academy, the martial soul displayed by Huo Yuhao should be of ice attribute, which is why he was unable to connect the two together at the first time.
No wonder the two brothers, Dai Yueheng and Dai Huabin, would simultaneously decide to deal with Huo Yuhao.
It turns out that this is still the ancestral tradition of your Dai family.
