Chapter 264: Driving the tiger and swallowing the wolf
After more than two years, Huo Yuhao's height has caught up with Wang Nan, and his face has become more mature. However, he was still a little shy when he saw Wang Nan and showed a simple smile.
"By the way, Brother Wang, I brought you a gift this time."
As Huo Yuhao spoke, he had already taken out a pair of arm armor from the storage soul guide.
"I made this based on the humanoid soul guide of the Sun-Moon Empire. This pair of arm armor has reached the level of a ninth-level soul guide, and it was made based on Brother Wang's martial soul. It should be able to cooperate with your martial soul like a humanoid soul guide."
Huo Yuhao said as he touched the back of his head with an embarrassed look, "It's just that my soul power is not enough now, so I can't make a complete humanoid soul guide. This pair of arm armor still needs to rely on the soul master's own soul power to drive it."
"Once I obtain the ninth soul ring, I should be able to make a complete humanoid soul guide. By then, I can equip it with a sealed energy-charging soul guide to greatly save soul power."
Wang Nan took the arm armor and examined it carefully. There were dragon scale patterns engraved on it, and a light golden glow was flowing slowly. As his soul power circulated, the aura on the arm armor also fluctuated accordingly, and it seemed that it did echo his own abilities.
Huo Yuhao must have spent a lot of time on this pair of arm armor, and from what he said, it is possible to make a complete humanoid soul guide based on it in the future. It must be said that he is indeed very talented in soul guides.
"Thank you Yuhao, I like it very much."
"As long as Brother Wang likes it."
“No matter when, Yuhao always acts like a child when he sees this human being.” Ice Emperor’s voice sounded faintly in Huo Yuhao’s sea of consciousness.
"Alas, Yuhao had a hard time when he was young. In his heart, this big brother Wang is indeed different from others." Tianmeng's tone became frivolous again, "Just like you, Bingbing, treat me."
"roll!"
From the depths of Huo Yuhao’s spiritual sea, an old voice let out a sigh that no one noticed.
If someone had been able to save his relatives when he was a child, perhaps he would have taken a completely different path.
"Brother Wang, shall we set off now?"
Ignoring the daily conversation between Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Ice Emperor in the Sea of Spirit, Huo Yuhao looked up at Wang Nan.
"Well, let's go now. We'll meet up with the others after we cross the border."
Wang Nan glanced at Huo Yuhao meaningfully.
It is not known whether the Star Luo Empire did not tell Huo Yuhao the entire plan, or whether Huo Yuhao was keeping something from Ma Xiaotao, but the letter from the Star Luo Empire mentioned more than just Wang Nan and Huo Yuhao.
A place that can hold a ninth-level soul engineer must be extraordinary, and the Xing Luo Empire does not want to see its own people in danger.
The four great priests of the Temple of Worship, Broken Star, Xuan Ji, Nebula and Giant Hammer, went out together as the main force, assisted by Huo Yuhao who was able to detect the enemy situation and conceal his whereabouts, and followed by Duke Dai Hao of White Tiger who led a corps of soul masters at the border, and supported by Wang Nan who had outstanding combat power.
It can be said that he values this Conferred God Douluo very much.
……
"Cough cough."
In Mingdu, in a study room in the imperial palace, Xu Tianran coughed twice.
The defeat in the continental war made the disabled Xu Tianran look a bit sick. Because he lost his legs, his vitality was greatly lost. Even if his cultivation reached the level of Titled Douluo, the imperial physician of the Sun Moon Empire still diagnosed that Xu Tianran's life span would not exceed a hundred years. Now that the war was lost, and the royal riot was suppressed only recently, his face also looked a bit more tired.
Reaching out and patting Ju Zi's hand on his shoulder, Xu Tianran slowly said, "Ju Zi, do you think the Xing Luo Empire will send someone?"
"I will definitely do that." Ju Zi thought as she massaged Xu Tianran's shoulders. "The Xing Luo Empire is vigorously promoting soul guides. They have no reason to give up a ninth-level soul guide. Even if they find this news too coincidental, they will definitely send someone to test it out."
"Yes." Xu Tianran nodded slightly, "That's the best. Since the end of the war, the appetite of that group of evil soul masters has become bigger and bigger, and their secret activities have become more frequent. Now that the royal turmoil has been suppressed, there is no point in keeping them."
"During the war, they collected souls from the battlefield and transported them to Dongyang City. Now I want to see what they are doing there."
Xu Tianran looked back at Ju Zi and said, "Thanks to you, Ju Zi, for coming up with this idea. A traitor can attract the Xing Luo Empire to come and help us find out what those evil soul masters are hiding. It's a good trick to drive the tiger to devour the wolf."
"It's a pity that you were physically disabled during the battle on the mainland. Otherwise, if you led the imperial army, how could you have fallen into Shrek's trap like that loser Xu Tianyuan?"
When talking about what happened in the past, a hint of coldness flashed in Juzi's eyes, but his hands did not change at all, and Xu Tianran in front of him was unaware of anything.
"Your Majesty, the Holy Spirit Church still has Death Douluo and Dragon Emperor Douluo. If we just tear our faces apart, I'm afraid..."
"It's okay." Xu Tianran waved his hand gently.
Juzi looked at Xu Tianran's calm and composed appearance, and recalled an old man whom he had met in the palace before.
Even for her, Xu Tianran was still a little wary, as there were still forces in the Sun and Moon Empire that she did not understand.
It seems that we need to consider it in the long run.
"Your Majesty, since you intend to have people from the Xing Luo Empire come here, should we relax the investigation within the empire a little?"
"No need." Xu Tianran gently closed his eyes. "It seems that you are also careless sometimes. Only if we don't make any changes at this time can we make the Xingluo Empire completely believe that they got this news by themselves. If we deliberately let down our guard, it will be easier for them to notice something is wrong."
"Yes, it was Orange who neglected it."
Juzi stopped what he was doing and knelt in front of Xu Tianran, as if he had really been inconsiderate.
"You have been too tired during this period. Go back early today and spend more time with the prince."
"Yes." Orange nodded again.
"What else?" Xu Tianran asked when he saw Juzi still kneeling there.
"Your Majesty, although the prince is still young, his education should be put on the agenda as soon as possible, so I want to find a good teacher for him."
Xu Tianran thought that Juzi loved his son too much, and after a little thought, he nodded gently, "Okay, you and I both know the prince's talent, and the Sun Moon Empire will be handed over to him in the future."
"How about this, I will let the prince and Mr. Kong meet again some other day."
"Yes." Hearing the words "Mr. Kong", Ju Zi's eyes flickered, but she lowered her head so Xu Tianran wouldn't see, "I'll take my leave."
