Douluo: Star Crown Glory

Chapter 109 Dai Zhu has never had an engagement
Xu Mingjie was sitting cross-legged on his bed in the dormitory practicing, when he suddenly heard some noise coming from outside. He came out of his practice and sighed.

He knew that it was most likely the eldest prince of the Star Luo Empire who had come again. One of them was the captain of the regular team, and the other was the captain of the reserve team. They would see each other every day.

Moreover, the other party's identity was too special, and it was difficult for him to refuse. The strength of the Xingguan Sect could not be exposed now, otherwise it would definitely be targeted by the Spirit Hall. Qian Daoliu could no longer watch the Xingguan Sect living in seclusion in a corner like now.

Xu Mingjie adjusted his expression in front of the mirror, opened the door, walked out, and greeted Davis with a gentle smile.

Standing next to Davis were his fiancée Zhu Zhuyun and the descendants of some great noble families of the Xingluo City Empire. They all walked together towards the lively area of ​​Xingluo City, playing and joking, and seemed to be getting along very harmoniously.

"Brother Mingjie, does your Xingguan Sect have a commercial street like Xingluo City?"

"No, our place is a remote mountain, and our tribesmen don't often come into contact with the outside world. We are basically self-sufficient."

"Really? That sounds good, Brother Mingjie. The one who got the treasure at sea that's being rumored all over Xingluo City seems to be someone from your Xingguan Sect. Have you heard of it?"

"I've heard this rumor, but I haven't been back to the sect for a long time, so I don't know the details."

"Really? Brother Mingjie, let me take you to the biggest den of money-losing in Xingluo City. It's really fun there."

"Okay, let's go."

Xu Mingjie was dealing with Davis. Of course he knew the specific situation, because they were his grandfather and brother. However, he only knew these things to himself. If he revealed them just to show off for a moment and affected the sect's plan, he would really be the biggest sinner of the Xingguan Sect.

Davis and the children of the great nobles nearby would talk about the Xingguan Sect from time to time, seemingly expressing their admiration, but who knew what they were thinking in private.

After they left, a talented young man who had awakened his martial spirit just over a year ago suddenly walked out from the shadows of a street behind them, looked at their backs and clenched his fists.

"Davis is six years older than me, and now he has won over the largest sect in the Xingluo Empire. Do I still have a chance here?"

After hesitating for a moment, he turned his gaze to the north of the Xingluo Empire, which was the direction of the Tiandou Empire. Going there would be much easier, whether it was to win over external forces or to avoid being hunted down.

At this time in the Zhu Mansion, there was a little girl whose martial spirit had not yet awakened. She was fantasizing about her future husband in the garden. What a great and upright man that husband would be.

If the children of the White Tiger Dai family and the Nether Spirit Cat Zhu family both awaken their family martial spirits and possess the martial spirit fusion skills, they will be born to be together.

However, before the martial soul is awakened and the innate soul power is confirmed, in order to prevent any accidents, the two parties will not have an engagement and will not meet.

……

Within a few days, news spread in the palace that the third prince Dai Mubai had escaped from Tiandou. The head of the Zhu family immediately went to visit the Queen of Xingluo and received a reply.

Dai Mubai will not get engaged to anyone from the Zhu family, nor will he allow anyone to interfere with his future. Although the head of the Zhu family is very unhappy about this, he has no other choice.

He told the news to Zhu Zhuqing, who was about to awaken her martial spirit. Seeing her distraught, he turned around and left, leaving her alone crying in the room.

After a while, the crying in the room stopped. The young Zhu Zhuqing wiped away her tears, cheered herself up again, and began to exercise. Since the third prince Dai Mubai, the Emperor and Empress Xingluo had no children. Since her husband was unreliable, she could only rely on herself.

After leaving the room, the head of the Zhu family sat in the hall thinking. The Zhu family got its start through marriage. Since it is impossible to marry into the royal family, is it possible to choose a powerful husband's family for Zhu Zhuqing?

He looked through the Zhu family's intelligence on all the major forces in the Xing Luo Empire. Due to his position, he first excluded all the sects and families that had defected to the Spirit Hall.

Secondly, in order to avoid the emperor's suspicion, he could not make this choice. In this way, the forces he could choose from that met the demands of him and the Zhu family would be much smaller, and the most obvious one among them was only one.

"Someone is coming."

"Master, what are your orders?"

"Go to Xingluo Royal Academy for me and invite the team captain Xu Mingjie to my Zhu Mansion for a chat. Remember, your attitude must be sincere."

"Yes, my subordinate will do it now."

After the head of the Zhu family arranged everything, he began to discuss with the think tanks in the mansion how to make Davis more secure in becoming the crown prince of the Star Luo Empire. This was their top priority at the moment.

At this time, Xu Mingxi, who was far away in the Sunset Forest, did not know that although his younger brother did as he expected and would inevitably come into contact with various forces after joining the Xingluo Royal Academy, the result was completely different from what he expected and he would be caught in a vortex of disputes.

He is now busy hiding behind the woods and spying on the soul beasts eating.

Looking at the hundred thousand year old roaring tiger in front of him gnawing at the corpse of the giant bull, he recorded its location in his notebook.

Xu Mingxi searched in the Sunset Forest for several days, but found nothing except some rare herbs. It was not until today that he heard a deafening roar.

He rushed over to check it out with joy, but was greatly disappointed. The soul beast was a hundred thousand year old soul beast, but it was not what he needed. He could only register it and keep it for Xu Mingguang and the others as the ninth soul ring.

"Forget it. This Sunset Forest should only have this 100,000-year-old soul beast in front of us. I think Dugu Bo should have been dealt with."

Muttering to himself, Xu Mingxi returned to the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire. Dugu Bo had already picked all the herbs and was waiting there with Dugu Yan.

He gave the Blue Silver King's soul bone to Dugu Bo, and asked him to take it and the medicinal herbs back to the Xingguan Sect and hand all these things over to the sect master.

Xu Mingxi was not worried at all that Dugu Bo would run away. His son and daughter-in-law were still in the Xingguan Sect. Moreover, knowing the strength of the Xingguan Sect, would he dare to run away?

After bidding farewell to Dugu Bo, Xu Mingxi did not delay any longer and left the Sunset Forest directly. There was nothing good to be obtained here for the time being, and he had other more important things to do.

After leaving the Sunset Forest, Xu Mingxi looked at the map in his hand and headed towards the southern part of the Tiandou Empire.

In just three days, the dusty Xu Mingxi raised his head and looked at the plaque hanging high above the city gate. The three big characters "Soto City" on it told him that they had arrived at their destination.
