Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect: I, Huo Yuhao, join the Sun Moon Sect.

Chapter 741 Quickly go and ask Elder Mu to take action!
Soon, the guards stationed outside the palace immediately went to find the imperial physician.

Soon after, several imperial physicians arrived at the palace. After learning that Xu Jiawei had suffered a stroke due to anger and was vomiting blood, they conducted a thorough examination of his body.

After confirming that there was nothing seriously wrong, they used some soul skills to soothe his emotions and heal his injuries, which improved Xu Jiawei's condition.

Finally, the imperial physicians helped Xu Jiawei to the dragon bed to rest, and then left the palace.

Xu Jiawei sat on the dragon bed, looking at Zhao Zhehan with red eyes, and said, "Old Zhao, do you think Jiujiu will have a chance to come back?"

Although Xu Jiujiu was captured alive by Huo Yuhao, he went around persuading the allied forces to surrender and became the Marshal of the Gate, causing the Star Luo royal family to lose face.

However, no matter what, Xu Jiujiu was his younger sister who shared the same biological mother, and he still wanted to ensure that Xu Jiujiu could return home safely.

Zhao Zhehan looked hesitant: "Your Majesty, forgive my bluntness, but the possibility of Princess Jiujiu returning is extremely slim. As the Marshal of the Allied Forces and the Princess of Xingluo, she is undoubtedly a highly valuable bargaining chip in the eyes of the Sun and Moon leadership. The Sun and Moon leadership are not fools and will absolutely not let Princess Jiujiu return easily."

"What if we send someone to negotiate?" Xu Jiawei was still somewhat unwilling. He knew that with Xu Jiujiu's value, he would certainly not be in any danger to his life in the Sun Moon Empire.

However, the fact that their lives are not in danger does not mean that those Sun Moon people will not resort to some underhanded and despicable means against Jiu Jiu.

Zhao Zhehan frowned deeply and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty! The allied forces were already at a great disadvantage on the battlefield, and now they have suffered a major defeat with heavy losses."

If negotiations were to take place solely to bring Princess Jiujiu back, the Sun and Moon high command would undoubtedly make exorbitant demands, requiring the Empire to cede substantial benefits.

Can the empire truly bear the consequences of relinquishing such vast amounts of wealth? Your Majesty, I believe you have the judgment in your heart regarding the relative importance of the empire and Princess Jiu Jiu!

Xu Jiawei fell silent, feeling aggrieved.

However, due to another major defeat for the allied forces, the battle line has now been pushed back to the vicinity of the Star Rochino defense line.

To this day, in this war instigated by the Sun Moon Empire and sweeping across the entire Douluo Continent, the Star Luo Empire has not only lost a large number of people, but now a full six-sevenths of its territory has fallen into the hands of the Sun Moon Empire.

Therefore, the current national strength of the Star Luo Empire is simply insufficient to bear the consequences of relinquishing a large amount of benefits.

The once spirited and ambitious Emperor of Star Luo now seemed to have aged several years in an instant: "Elder Zhao, in your opinion, how should the Empire now deal with the Sun and Moon?"

"First of all, we must not publicly announce that Princess Jiujiu was captured alive by the Sun and Moon Army. In any case, we cannot admit that the Allied Marshal was captured alive by the Sun and Moon Army, otherwise the morale of the Allied Army will decline further, leading to a further weakening of the Allied Army's combat effectiveness."

"Princess Jiujiu's safety in the Sun Moon Empire is actually determined by how much trouble the allied forces cause to the Sun Moon army on the battlefield. If the allied forces can fight all the way to Mingdu, the Sun Moon high command will probably beg us to bring Princess Jiujiu back!" Zhao Zhehan said decisively.

Xu Jiawei nodded helplessly: "Okay!"

Seeing this, Zhao Zhehan pressed on: "Your Majesty, you should send someone to Shrek Academy to communicate with Elder Mu and ask him to take action. Given the current dire situation, if Elder Mu continues to cower in Shrek Academy and does not participate in the war, Star Luo City will be breached by the Sun and Moon Army sooner or later, and the Allied Forces will be in an even more difficult situation."

Upon hearing this, Xu Jiawei sighed, deeply agreeing: "Elder Zhao, it is indeed as you say. It's time for Elder Mu to make his move. The war has been going on for so long, yet this renowned Dragon God Douluo has been guarding Shrek Academy. If Elder Mu doesn't take action soon, this war will truly be impossible to fight!"

After saying that, Xu Jiawei arranged for the Star Luo envoy to go to Shrek Academy to discuss the matter.

The Spirit City of the Spirit Empire. Dark clouds gathered, and torrential rain poured down.

With a deafening roar of thunder, blinding flashes of lightning illuminated the pale face of the Fighting Spirit Emperor.

His eyes were red and glistening with tears as he stood on the steps outside the main hall, gazing at the sky.

The captain of the personal guards, who was standing nearby, erected a soul-guided shield to block the wind and rain, and subconsciously advised, "Your Majesty, your health is of utmost importance. Please return to your palace to rest!"

"I will not go back! I watched Elder Tian leave the palace and head to the front lines from this very step. Now Elder Tian is dead at Huo Yuhao's hands and will never return!" Emperor Douling roared.

Tianyang Douluo watched him grow up and was considered his elder. The two had a very good relationship. Now, upon hearing the news of Tianyang Douluo's death, he was naturally overwhelmed with grief and anger.

And an uncontrollable killing intent towards Huo Yuhao rose in his heart.

But when he thought about Huo Yuhao's achievements, he felt powerless.

Among the three great empires, the Douling Empire was the weakest, while Tianyang Douluo was the strongest in the Douling Empire, a pillar of white jade supporting the sky.

Now that the Douling Empire has lost Tianyang Douluo, who else can kill Huo Yuhao?

After a while, his emotions calmed down a bit. He looked at the captain of the personal guard and instructed him: "You must immediately arrange for people to go to Shrek Academy and have Ling Xun represent the Douling Empire to ask Mu En to come out of seclusion and go to the front line to resist the Sun and Moon Army!"

This old guy is clearly a Limit Douluo, yet he's been hiding in Shrek Academy, refusing to come out and make a move. Is he afraid of death? Mu En is making those weaker than him fight to the death on the front lines against the Sun Moon Army; doesn't he feel ashamed?"

Xue Lingxun has not yet returned to the Douling Empire, since Xu Sanshi is still at Shrek Academy and hasn't come back yet. The two haven't seen each other for a long time, so they naturally want to spend more time together.

"Yes, Your Majesty," the captain of the personal guard replied in a deep voice.

Shrek Academy.

Poseidon Pavilion.

The news that the allied forces had suffered a major defeat and that Xu Jiujiu had been captured alive by Huo Yuhao had already reached Mu En's ears.

He lay back in his chair, a helpless look on his face, and sighed, "Huo Yuhao's strength is even greater than I expected. He was able to fight four powerful Soul Masters all by himself and capture them alive for a long time in the midst of a large army. Even if he relied on a Soul Tool, his strength is something to be proud of."

Gong Changlong, standing to the side, said with a wry smile, "Elder Mu, now I finally understand why you asked the academy to vigorously develop soul tools back then. You were indeed farsighted. The development momentum of soul tools is becoming more and more exaggerated."

"Huo Yuhao, having just entered the Title Douluo level, was able to easily kill Senior Tianyang and the others using his soul tool. In Shrek Academy, only you can probably surpass him in strength. Even Elder Xuan couldn't have killed Senior Tianyang and the others so easily!"

Shrek City Lord Shi Xing sighed, "I never expected a twenty-year-old to have such strength. This puts even more pressure on the front lines, but we are helpless. It seems that the Star Luo Empire will soon perish."

"Why were such talented individuals seduced by the evil Sun Moon Empire and not allowed to join Shrek Academy?"
