Chapter 2: 292
Chapter 292 Black Robe "Jie Jie Jie", the Continent is Unified
Dai An stood up suddenly, with a gleam of disbelief in his eyes: "Zhu family? How dare they?!"
The Soul Emperor was trembling all over, obviously having gone through a tough battle. "Your Majesty, I don't know when the Zhu family colluded with the Wuhun Empire. When we were confronting the Wuhun Empire, they suddenly attacked from behind and occupied many important places in our country! Now, the Xingluo Empire has fallen into internal and external troubles!"
Davis' face turned pale, and he clenched his fists. "The Zhu family is a traitor! How dare they betray Xing Luo!"
He took a deep breath and tried to calm his anger and panic: "What happened and what is the current situation? How powerful is the Zhu family rebel army?"
The Soul Emperor glanced at Davis standing beside him and said tremblingly, "Zhu Zhuyun of the Zhu family imprisoned his father, usurped his throne, and joined forces with the Wuhun Empire to attack our country's hinterland with a surprise attack.
On the battlefield, all the soldiers petitioned collectively, and the people around her put a crown on her head, a dragon robe on her head, and respected her as the new emperor.
Zhu Zhuyun said that she had suffered a lot, but she gladly accepted the supporters. The cavalry trampled through the royal capital and now has completely occupied the core area of the Xingluo Empire. All important buildings including the royal palace have been under their control.
With the support of the Wuhun Empire, Zhu Zhuyun talked about the benevolent policies that would be implemented in the future and the benefits promised by the Wuhun Empire. Many regions chose to surrender out of fear and confusion. "
He swallowed, looked at Davis and Diane, who had uncertain expressions, and continued, "The strange thing is that most of the people in the capital have no intention of resisting. Now she is the orthodox, and we... are labeled as rebels.
Zhu Zhuyun used the power of the Wuhun Empire to not only control the military, but also gain the upper hand in public opinion, portraying us as criminals who attempted to subvert the peace of the country."
At this point, he looked at the long-defunct mountain in the distance with some horror, "That mountain was towering into the clouds, and it was shattered by the blow of Saint Lin Feng. The scene of its collapse was spread as if it were a miracle, and the people of the capital believed that it was the power of divine punishment.
They believed that it was your Majesty and the Crown Prince who were determined to be enemies with the Wuhun Empire, which led to such a disaster. They were unable to defeat the enemy but insisted on doing so, wasting the country's strength and disregarding the lives of the people. Now, Zhu Zhuyun followed the will of heaven and took over the throne.
This is the letter of persuasion that Zhu Zhuyun gave me."
As he spoke, he took out a secret letter from his pocket with shaking hands and presented it to her with both hands. Diane took the letter, quickly read it, then sighed heavily and handed the letter to Davis.
After reading it, Davis's face became even gloomier. In the letter, Zhu Zhuyun stated the so-called "facts" in a victorious manner and "implore" them to give up resistance and surrender for the future of the Xing Luo Empire and the peace of the people.
"This Zhu Zhuyun, what a cunning bitch!" Davis was furious and punched the table. "How dare she be so bold as to collude with foreign enemies and usurp the throne! I treat her well, can't she just be her Crown Princess peacefully?!"
"The Zhu family and all the women in the world are nothing more than reproductive tools, and are merely vassals of my Dai family's martial soul fusion technique. How dare they complain!!!"
"Father, we can't just sit there and wait for death!" Davis' eyes were blazing with anger, "We must fight back and take back everything that belongs to us!"
He was only one step away from ascending the throne, but in the end he ended up making wedding clothes for others! Davis was filled with resentment and anger. He could not accept such a fact, and he could not tolerate Zhu Zhuyun's betrayal.
"Your Highness, I have something Zhu Zhuyun wants me to tell you, which is..." The Soul Emperor stammered, feeling extremely conflicted.
"Go ahead, what else does she have to say?" Davis said coldly, his eyes revealing a strong murderous intent.
The Soul Emperor gritted his teeth and said quickly, "Zhu Zhuyun said that the so-called selection system of the royal family is nothing more than a game of the strong bullying the weak. It is just the 'bloodline shackles' of her Zhu family. The emperor takes turns to sit on the throne, and this year it is her family's turn."
Davis laughed when he heard this, "What a great way to have the emperor take turns to sit on the throne. This year it's her turn! Does Zhu Zhuyun really think she can sit firmly on the throne?"
Just as he was about to say something, suddenly, the tent of the camp was opened, and a figure flashed in like a ghost, bringing a gust of cold wind. The man was wearing a black robe, his face hidden under the shadow of the hood, revealing only a pair of eyes that were gleaming with a faint light.
"Who?!" Davis and Diane exclaimed at the same time, subconsciously pointing their weapons at the person who came.
The man in black robe smiled slightly, lifted his hood, revealing a young and handsome face, it was Lin Feng.
"Prince Davis, Her Majesty Diane, how are you?" The voice of Saint Lin Feng was calm and indifferent, as if he was watching an insignificant drama.
Dai An swallowed his saliva. He witnessed with his own eyes how Lin Feng shattered the mountains with one blow and how the remaining power shocked his army. He couldn't help feeling a chill in his heart.
"We have surrendered. What do you want to do here?"
Davis looked at his father beside him in disbelief. This humble and cowardly attitude made him angry and ashamed. Is this still his father, the Titled Douluo who looked down on the world?
Lin Feng noticed Davis's eyes and glanced at him.
"Plop——"
Davis knelt on the ground and stammered, "Meet the Holy Son."
The strong contrast made Lin Feng stunned for a moment, with a look of surprise on his face. He stroked his chin and asked Dai An, "Am I scary?"
Diane was speechless. Why are you wearing such a black robe and cloak? You were almost laughing, looking like a villain.
Davis was furious when he saw him kneeling and trembling on the ground, but now he could only think that his own son was a wise man who knew the times.
He forced a smile and replied respectfully, "Your Excellency the Holy Son is well-known and powerful, so we are naturally in awe of him."
Lin Feng nodded, not caring about their reactions. He slowly walked to the center of the tent, his eyes sweeping over everyone present, finally stopping on the letter of surrender.
"I came here for nothing else but this letter," Lin Feng gently raised the letter of persuasion in his hand, "I really didn't expect her to act so quickly and so decisively, so I didn't tell you before, but now I will tell you.
Zhu Zhuyun is mine, do you understand what I mean?"
Diane and Davis were both stunned when they heard this, their eyes full of shock and confusion. Davis even raised his head and looked at Lin Feng, clenching his fists, his nails almost digging into his palms, and he trembled in his heart and complained: "No wonder she always refuses me when I want to be intimate with her. This bitch has already found a real master."
Lin Feng frowned. He didn't sense Davis's strange thoughts, but he sensed the murderous intent.
"snort!"
Lin Feng snorted coldly, flashed to Davis' side, and took a light step, which seemed to be as heavy as a thousand pounds, and crushed Davis to the ground.
"Gada——"
"ah!--"
"Don't have the wrong thoughts. This time, I'll cripple both of your legs. Next time, I'll take your life!"
The action was so fast that Diane, a Titled Douluo, only felt a flash before his eyes. He had no time to react before Davis' legs were broken by Lin Feng. His miserable screams resounded throughout the tent.
Dense cold sweat continued to seep out of Dai An and the Soul Emperor. They looked at the scene in horror as if they were frozen in time. Their hearts were filled with unprecedented shock and fear. They had no doubt that as long as Lin Feng had a thought, they would die!
Lin Feng slowly retracted his foot.
"Diane, I hope you can understand that Zhu Zhuyun is mine, and all her actions are carried out under my instructions." Lin Feng's voice was calm and cold, but with unquestionable majesty.
"You only have two choices now. One is to surrender all your rights, acknowledge Zhu Zhuyun's status, and obey her orders. The other is..."
He looked at Dai An and said, "The strength of the Titled Douluo is still too high." As he said that, he shot out a faint light that went straight into Dai An's body, sealing his soul power cultivation.
Dai An's breath suddenly dropped, and it was not until Soul Sect stopped.
Lin Feng said nothing more and turned away, "After three days, I want to see Xing Luo return to peace."
Diane was shaking all over, watching Lin Feng's back as he left, and an unprecedented feeling of powerlessness surged in his heart. He knew very well that he and Davis had completely lost the chance to resist, as Lin Feng was too powerful and they were simply unable to contend.
The Soul Emperor also looked pale, his legs were weak, and he almost collapsed to the ground. He had never seen such a terrifying strength and such a domineering style of behavior, and he was filled with deep fear of Lin Feng.
Isn't it said that this Saint Son cares about the world and is kind and gentle? How can he be so cruel and ruthless, and act so decisively? He is obviously a black-bellied person.
The Soul Emperor muttered to himself, but did not dare to show it. He looked at Dai An, and saw that the former emperor also looked confused and helpless, as if he had aged a lot.
Davis lay on the ground, almost fainted from the pain, but his consciousness was still tenaciously supporting. His heart was filled with regret and unwillingness. He regretted that he had not seen Zhu Zhuyun's ambition earlier, regretted that he had lost his mind and dared to kill her, and was unwilling to lose his legs and become a useless person.
The atmosphere in the tent was heavy and depressing. Davis's painful groans were intermittent, like a sad song about the fate of the Star Luo Empire.
Diane slowly stood up and walked to his son, his eyes showing both pity and determination. From this moment on, everything has changed. They, father and son, and even the entire Star Luo Empire, will usher in a new era.
A comeback? That was just a pipe dream. In the face of absolute strength, any resistance seemed pale and powerless.
Their own cultivation was sealed, and the situation was hopeless. They had no choice at this moment. He gently patted Davis's shoulder, with a hint of helplessness and comfort in his tone: "Child, bear the humiliation. Although we have lost everything, as long as we are alive, there is hope."
Davis' eyes flashed with stubbornness. Although his body was in unbearable pain, his eyes were still burning with unwilling flames: "Father, I...I won't give up!"
Diane sighed. How could he not be unwilling to accept this? But the reality was cruel and they had to accept it. "We have to accept this no matter how unwilling we are. This is our fate. Now, the only thing we can do is wait for the right opportunity. Maybe one day, we will find a chance to turn things around."
After that, Diane helped Davis up, and the two slowly walked out of the tent. The sun was still bright outside, but the sky of the Xingluo Empire was already covered with haze. The emperor and the prince who were once high and mighty were now like dogs that had lost their homes, which was very sad.
Three days later, the Xingluo Empire had indeed returned to peace as Lin Feng had wished. Zhu Zhuyun successfully ascended the throne with the support of the Wuhun Empire and became the new empress. However, Dai An, Davis and other members of the Dai family were placed under house arrest in a remote palace, losing all their freedom and power.
A few years later, there were several more corpses in the Dai family's ancestral tomb, and they ultimately did not have a chance to turn the tables.
Since then, the world situation has changed drastically, and the Wuhun Empire has unified the entire Douluo Continent.
This war of unification, which people had thought would be a bloody, protracted war, ended unexpectedly and quickly under the iron-fisted measures of Saint Lin Feng. The rise of the Wuhun Empire was like an unstoppable torrent that swept across the entire Douluo Continent.
The two great empires of the past were completely destroyed, countless sects and families either surrendered or went into hiding, and the entire continent entered an unprecedented era of unification.
There is no longer any Tiandou Empire, no Xingluo Empire, and no more those principalities.
In the entire Douluo Continent, there is only one country, the Wuhun Empire.
The two former empires, as well as several principalities and provinces, were re-divided into twelve administrative provinces by the Wuhun Empire. Each administrative region had a Wuhun branch hall at the sub-main hall level, and at the same time, governors and soul master armies directly appointed by the Wuhun Empire were stationed there to ensure absolute control over each place.
Tiandou and Xingluo are special, and are divided into several important administrative provinces by the Wuhun Empire.
Among them, the more important ones are Beichen Province centered on the former Tiandou City, Nandou Province centered on the former Xingluo Imperial City, and Tianxing Province covering a vast area bordering the two empires.
Tianxing Province has a key geographical location, connecting the north and the south, and is the real center of Beichen and Nandou politics.
Here, with Wuhun City as the core, the politics, economy, culture, and transportation of the north and the south are firmly controlled under their own noses.
Under Lin Feng's instruction, Tianxing Province and Wuhun City began large-scale construction and reform. The Wuhun Hall was expanded into a large-scale Wuhun Holy Temple, becoming a holy place for soul masters to practice and communicate, and a symbol of the authority of the Wuhun Empire.
The towering spire of the temple points straight to the sky, as if it is about to touch the end of the sky, and a huge soul stone is inlaid on the top of the tower. At night, the soul stone emits a soft light, illuminating the entire Wuhun City.
Two and a half weeks later.
Bibi Dong, wearing a gorgeous imperial robe and a dazzling crown, announced her new policies and vision for the future in front of everyone in the central hall of Wuhun City. The sunlight shone on her body, coating her with a layer of golden light, making her look more solemn and sacred.
"The whole world is united. From today on, I, Bibi Dong, will lead Douluo Continent to a more prosperous future in the name of the Queen."
Lin Feng stood at the highest point of the Spirit Temple, a smile on his face, his eyes penetrated the layers of clouds and mist, saw Bibi Dong, and listened quietly to her declaration.
It must be said that Bibi Dong, who was dressed in the emperor's attire, had an indescribable charm at this moment. Bibi Dong seemed to feel his gaze and smiled at him. A voice transmission came, "Tonight is the emperor's time."
