Douluo: The Peerless Eye of Heaven Yu Hao

Dai Hao nodded, and soon the group of people returned to the mansion.

In the White Tiger Hall, Dai Hao sat in the main seat, where the table that was smashed by Dai Dianchen had been replaced with a new one.

Listening to Zhu Changming talking about how Zhu Yuhan and his two sons were able to fuse their martial souls, Dai Hao was a little surprised. In the past, Dai Yueheng had tried to test the blood fusion with Zhu's daughter, but without exception, he had failed every time. This time, he actually succeeded.

But obviously, Zhu Changming did not mention the series of quarrels that took place in the White Tiger Hall not long ago.

Thinking about this, Dai Hao looked at Dai Huabin with a gloomy face, then at Dai Yaoheng who was neither humble nor arrogant, and Zhu Yuhan who was feeling uneasy.

He frowned slightly. In fact, he didn't like the so-called Nether White Tiger, even though it was the White Tiger family's famous skill. But after all, the two families had been married for more than ten thousand years. In a sense, outsiders had already considered them together.

Dai Hao said calmly: "Since we have to choose a partner suitable for Yu Han from the two brothers, why not test the degree of martial soul fusion? This is fair enough."

Hearing this, several people's eyes moved slightly. Dai Yuheng agreed, while Dai Huabin was angry.

Only Zhu Yuhan bit her lip. Is this fair? It seems that she was not asked for her opinion.

But...it doesn't matter anymore, who would care about her?

She sighed silently in her heart. This was the fate of the Zhu family's daughter. If she accepted the family's resources, she must sacrifice herself for the family.

It’s not that marrying into the White Tiger family is a bad thing. After all, they are the top noble family of the Xingluo Empire. But for young people, who doesn’t want to find a love of their own?

But for her, Dai Yuheng is a suitable partner, better than Dai Huabin.

Zhu Changming analyzed the situation and made a quick decision, "This is a good idea, so we don't have to argue any more."

The Duchess also nodded in agreement.

A controversial issue was resolved in an instant.

Dai Hao glanced at Dai Yuheng, who understood and stood up. "Father has been traveling a long way. I will go and ask them to arrange a lunch. Huabin and Yuhan should come with me."

Perhaps due to the suppression of his father's blood, the gloom on Dai Huabin's face gradually faded. He stood up and took his leave, while Zhu Yuhan bowed to Dai Hao and Zhu Ruiying respectively, and then the three of them left together.

"What's the situation at the border?" Zhu Changming asked as soon as the three juniors left.

Dai Hao's brows were slightly tired, and he said, "It's still the same. The two sides are always in a standoff, with occasional small conflicts. However, they haven't harassed the border during this period. Perhaps they have considered the upcoming Fighting Spirit Competition. It is easy to cause public opinion if they mobilize troops at this time. It is for this reason that His Majesty ordered me to return and participate in the opening ceremony of this Fighting Spirit Competition."

Zhu Changming and the Duchess listened.

"By the way. Why did Hua Bin come home? I remember that he was not in the Shrek Academy's competition team."

Suddenly, Dai Hao reacted and asked Duchess Zhu Ruiying curiously.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Ruiying's face suddenly stiffened, and she swallowed her thoughts when she wanted to ask Dai Hao about the border situation.

"Did something happen?" Dai Hao saw something was wrong and asked quickly, his eyes becoming stern.

Zhu Ruiying was silent for a moment, and finally told Dai Huabin what he had done in Shrek Academy. If Dai Huabin was not at home, she could still keep it secret, but...

Upon learning that Dai Huabin had dared to kill Ming Feng Douluo's direct disciple in Shrek City, and even attracted the strong men from Shrek Academy to come and seek compensation, Dai Hao's pupils suddenly dilated with surprise, but soon, the surprise turned into intense anger.

"Shh."

Dai Hao stood up suddenly and walked out of the hall.

"Dai Hao, what are you doing?" Zhu Ruiying saw something was wrong and hurried forward to grab Dai Hao.

The couple had an average relationship, and Zhu Ruiying mostly called him by his first name.

"What?" Dai Hao glanced at Zhu Ruiying coldly. "How long ago did this happen? I'm still in the dark. This bastard dared to play tricks in Shrek City."

As he spoke, Dai Hao took off his belt from his waist, pushed Zhu Ruiying away, and rushed towards Dai Huabin.

"Dai Hao." Zhu Ruiying was pushed away, and before she could react, Dai Hao had already walked out of the hall.

"Not good." Zhu Ruiying, who knew Dai Hao's temper well, turned pale. If this fight continued, Dai Huabin would have to lie in bed for a month or two.

"Third brother, go and stop Dai Hao. I will go and inform Second Uncle and the others to persuade Dai Hao." Zhu Ruiying hurriedly said to the dumbfounded Zhu Changming.

Zhu Changming did not dare to delay and quickly caught up with Dai Hao. Zhu Ruiying anxiously went to ask his elders for help.

In the inner palace kitchen, Dai Yaoheng was instructing the chef to prepare a good lunch. Outside, Dai Huabin and Zhu Yuhan were silent, standing more than ten meters apart, each in silence.

Thinking back to what Zhu Yuhan had said before about marrying his eldest brother, Dai Huabin felt a surge of rage in his stomach.

He always felt that his life had not been smooth sailing since he met that bastard, and he suffered all kinds of setbacks.

Damn it, when I get back to college, I’m going to take it out on that guy Dai Luoli.

"Master of the house."

At this moment, several respectful shouts were heard, and at the same time, there was a voice of persuasion, "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, listen to my advice, this child has..."

Before the persuasion was finished, the next moment, Dai Hao, with a "kind" look on his face, walked into the kitchen from outside, without looking around.

Zhu Yuhan hurriedly stood up respectfully, but it was different for Dai Huabin. He found that his father was looking at him with cold eyes, holding an exquisite leather belt in his hand, and striding towards him.

Dai Huabin reacted without even needing to be reminded, with a hint of fear in his confusion.

Huabin, I’m going to be beaten.

"Kneel down."

Dai Hao has a low voice.

Dai Huabin's legs went weak, he swallowed, and then knelt down.

"Shh."

Without any hesitation, Dai Hao came behind Dai Huabin and swung a belt, hitting Dai Huabin directly on the back.

The contact between the belt and the body brought a crisp sound, and Dai Huabin felt the burning pain more clearly, as if his body was about to collapse.

The clothes on his body were directly torn to pieces, and the debris was scattered all over the ground.

Once is obviously not enough, we have to do it again.

Dai Hao swung out another belt, even increasing the force, but before the belt landed on Dai Huabin, he was caught by Zhu Changming who rushed over. Zhu Changming quickly advised: "Dai Hao, Huabin knows he was wrong in this matter. He has been punished by us a long time ago. We didn't inform you because we were worried that you would be affected at the border. Listen to my advice and spare Huabin."

Dai Huabin, who was kneeling on the ground, was still feeling some pain, but when he heard his third uncle's words, his heart sank. It was over, his ambush in Shrek City was exposed.

Dai Hao's expression was still cold, and he said, "Spare him? If this bastard really succeeded in killing him, do you know what the consequences would be? I have repeatedly emphasized that we must be prudent in doing things and think about the gains and losses of doing something. But he did the stupidest thing and was caught directly. If it weren't for Shrek Academy looking at Dai Mubai's ancestor's face, would this bastard still be able to come back alive?"

"But as long as you are a human being, you cannot avoid making mistakes. Didn't you make mistakes in the past?" Zhu Changming said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Dai Hao's heart was shocked, his eyes flickered continuously, as if he recalled something, his expression changed continuously, and finally he put down his hand.

Seeing this, Zhu Changming also breathed a sigh of relief.

On the side, Dai Yueheng, who walked out of the kitchen after hearing the sound, was stunned, and Zhu Yuhan was even more at a loss. If he watched it, he was afraid of getting into trouble, but if he didn't watch it, it would be quite interesting.

As for the servants who heard the noise, they all lowered their heads, as if they had not heard what had just happened.

"Whoosh whoosh."

Suddenly, several spirit auras flew in from afar and landed in the courtyard. The leader was Dai Dianchen, and he was followed by Dai Dianguang, Dai Dianfeng, and Zhu Ruiying. The fourth and sixth brothers did not come.

"Second uncle, third uncle, fifth uncle."

Dai Hao put away his belt and saluted the three people.

"Is there anything that can't be said behind closed doors? Besides, Hua Bin is going to participate in this tournament. If he gets beaten up by you and stays in bed, won't he have to waste five years before he can compete in the next tournament?"

Dai Dianchen said in a gentle tone.

Dai Hao took a deep breath and sighed heavily, "It's my fault after all. Blame me for staying at the border for too long and not educating the child well. Well, if I have the chance one day, I will go to Shrek Academy to apologize in person."

On the other side, Zhu Ruiying was observing Dai Huabin's injuries. Seeing that the injury was not serious, he was relieved and whispered to him, "Apologize to your father and calm his anger."

Dai Huabin gritted his teeth, turned around, and said respectfully: "I was wrong, father, I shouldn't have done those stupid things."

Dai Hao looked at Dai Huabin deeply and said, "Get up."

"Yes." Dai Huabin stood up, the pain in his back instantly spread throughout his body, and his face was distorted.

Dai Hao saw this and said, "Ruying, take the second brother to heal his wounds."

Zhu Ruiying nodded and left with Dai Huabin.

"This is not a good place to chat. Why don't we go somewhere else?" Zhu Changming said with a smile as he saw the atmosphere gradually stabilize.

Soon, everyone gathered outside the kitchen left together, leaving behind Dai Yaoheng and Zhu Yuhan.

……

Star Luo Palace.

Xu Jiawei sat upright on a soft chair, and in front of him, a middle-aged man dressed in Star Guard uniform was delivering messages to him in an orderly manner.

"Your Majesty, Duke Baihu has returned home. Should we start the action now, as we arranged the personnel earlier?"

The middle-aged man is a first-level Star Guard Commander, and his soul power level is as high as level eighty-five.

Xu Jiawei tapped the table with his fingertips and said, "Let's start the action. After these southwestern nobles spread the news, they will wait for my order to attack. Deal with the direct descendants of the four dukes. As for the other nobles, kill the mastermind and keep the rest alive. We will make arrangements for them later."

"If these southwestern nobles really secretly defected to the Sun-Moon Empire, even if the news leaked out, it would take a day or two. By the time the Sun-Moon Empire reacted and invaded my border, it would be a day or two after the start of the competition. By then, I would be able to control Dai Hao and insert my direct lineage generals into the Western Army Group to take back the military power."

The middle-aged man nodded. He didn't need to worry about the southwestern nobles being prepared after spreading the word. In fact, in the past few decades, every time the royal family wanted to take action against the southwestern nobles, the news would always be leaked in advance. It is estimated that this group of nobles have become accustomed to it.

What they may not know is that, although there were leaks during this eradication operation, those people have been replaced.

"I'll take my leave." The middle-aged man said respectfully.

"Yeah." Xu Jiawei nodded slightly.

After the middle-aged man left, Xu Jiawei raised his head again and looked straight ahead at the map of Douluo Continent hanging on the wall.

Looking at the Mingdou Mountains and the southwest border, the murderous intent of an emperor continued to emerge in his eyes. If the nobles in the southwest border really surrendered to the enemy, once they released the army of the Sun and Moon Empire from the southwest border, it would be too troublesome.

For this reason, in order to ensure the smooth implementation of the plan this time, he sent out eight Titled Douluo, seeking to end all unnecessary fights as quickly as possible.

Even the Lord of the Worship Hall, the ninety-eighth level Ice Crystal Douluo, was sent out by him.

As the day of the Soul Fighting Competition drew closer, Xingluo City was almost packed with people. The Xingluo royal family quickly dispatched more troops to maintain order and officially opened the newly built urban area of ​​Xingluo City.

This also barely alleviated the housing problem in the city.

Astonishing amounts of money continued to flow into Xingluo City. The royal family was smiling, the merchants made a fortune, the tourists had a great time, and everyone had a wonderful day.

Inside the Star Emperor Hotel, all 133 advanced soul master academies were present. Everyone was ready to go and had made all preparations.

The first round is the elimination round. Even the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy doesn't dare to be arrogant. It would be interesting if they were eliminated because of this.

Dai Yuheng returned to the team on the afternoon of the day Dai Hao returned, and Wang Yan immediately explained the rules of the game to him.

Dai Yuheng was smiling the whole time, and no one knew what happened to him at home.

As for Dai Huabin, he also left in the afternoon, but compared with his older brother, the expression on his face was not as good-looking.

The main reason is that a trace of Dai Yueheng's bloodline was also left behind, waiting for Zhu Changming to test Zhu Yuhan's bloodline. Once the degree of fusion between the two exceeds that of Dai Huabin, Zhu Yuhan will be his sister-in-law.

While Xingluo City was in high spirits, the scene in the southwest of the Xingluo Empire was quite different.

The southwestern region occupies almost one-fifth of the empire's territory and has a population of over 15 million. It has a total of four top dukes and nobles, and has a 4,000-year-long heritage. It is no exaggeration to call it a local emperor.

Their roots are so intertwined that they are extremely difficult to uproot, which is why successive Xingluo emperors have not dealt with them thoroughly. The issues involved are too big and could easily cause unrest in the country.

The unique location created a special growth environment for them. Even when the Xingluo Empire was in chaos, there was very little unrest here. Even when the Sun-Moon Empire invaded, the war never came.

Sea Breeze City is the largest city in the southwest with a population of over three million. Its west and south sides are close to the endless sea, and across the bay across the sea is the territory of the Sun and Moon Empire.

Dark clouds piled up in the sky, howling winds raged on the sea, the deep and dark sea water kept surging, and occasionally lightning streaked across the sky, leaving behind heart-pounding lines.

A strong wind came, and heavy rain was visibly about to fall.

The huge port was brightly lit, like soul-guiding lights standing on the edge of the sea. Countless ships were docked in the port and shivering. When the storm came, no ship dared to enter the sea to sail.

Even on the streets that are usually extremely busy, there are already few people walking around even though it is not yet eight o'clock in the evening.

There is a manor outside Sea Breeze City. It is very large and the building is magnificent. It is the residence of the Duke of Sea Breeze.

Hurried footsteps could be heard in the long corridor. Outside the glass windows, rain kept hitting the windows, trying to pour in. The straight trunks of the trees were bent by the wind.

In a bedroom filled with the scent of books, a white-haired old man leaned back on a soft bench, listening to the butler's report, slowly turning the pages, and savoring the contents of the book.

Everything continued until the butler finished speaking.

"Snapped."

The book was closed, and the white-haired old man turned his head calmly and looked at the butler, "Don't worry, just do it the same way as before. It's not the first time that the royal family wants to destroy us. Prepare some gifts by the way. We still need to do a good job of courtesy and reciprocity."

"As ordered."

The butler was also an old man. He left with a respectful look on his face. Since his master had given the order, he only needed to follow it.

Not only Duke Haifeng received the tip-off, the other three top dukes and nobles also received the tip-off at the same time. What was almost unanimous was that they did not take it seriously.
