" I, Yu Luomian, pay my respects to Palace Master Xiao."
As soon as he was brought into the Heavenly Palace by Huo Yuan, Yu Luomian slid down and knelt under the throne on the high platform, and said respectfully to Xiao Mu.
When others said "Greetings" it was just a polite expression, but Yu Luomian actually knelt down.
Yu Luomian's behavior shocked Huo Yuan. Although she believed that the Palace Master was supreme and worthy of any respect and etiquette, she still did not expect Yu Luomian to be so direct.
Xiao Mu had a playful smile on his face.
As for the kneeling Yu Luomian, no one asked him to stand up, nor did they ask him any questions, as if he didn't exist.
Yu Luomian did not feel humiliated at all, nor did she have any impatience. She just knelt quietly with her head lowered to the ground, her body not shaking at all.
"Get up."
After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Mu's voice came from above.
"Thank you, Palace Master."
Yu Luomian stood up from the ground meticulously, still with his head bowed and his hands hanging down, appearing extremely respectful.
"You know my attitude towards the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan, right?"
Xiao Mu's voice was still emotionless.
Yu Luomian bowed with his hands clasped.
"The Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan brought this upon themselves, angering the Palace Master and deserving death. Every time I think of this, I am overcome with remorse. Even a thousand deaths for the entire Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan cannot atone for their sins."
"Alright."
Xiao Mu raised his hand.
"Tell me why you're here. If it's something unimportant, you should think about what will happen to you."
"Yes, I understand." Yu Luomian said hurriedly.
"Palace Master, I have the audacity to come here because a conspiracy against the Soul Palace is underway."
"Yeah?"
Although Xiao Mu asked a question, there was no doubt in his tone, but rather a hint of sarcasm.
Yu Luomian knelt down again.
"Palace Master, please forgive me. One of the masterminds of this conspiracy is my brother, Yu Yuanzhen, the leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan."
Then, Yu Luomian told everything he knew.
The origin of the matter can be traced back to the person who met Yu Yuanzhen alone.
After that day, Yu Luomian had been trying his best to figure out what happened that day, because Yu Luomian had a strong premonition that his stupid brother, the sect leader, was going to commit suicide again.
But it would be fine if Yu Yuanzhen was seeking death, but if he was implicated, he would die with regret.
Just seven days ago, he finally found out everything.
The truth of the matter also confirmed his guess. The idiot Yu Yuanzhen was really courting death, and his target was still the Soul Palace.
And this time he still wants to attack the Soul Palace directly.
The moment Yu Luomian learned about this, she wanted to smash Yu Yuanzhen's head open to see if it was filled with shit. How could he be so stupid and crazy?
The strength of the Soul Palace has been proven time and again, yet Yu Yuanzhen still dares to overestimate his own capabilities.
Xiao Mu said coldly, "You, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan, are truly courageous. This is the first time I've seen someone this foolish."
Yu Luomian kowtowed repeatedly, and his forehead, which was not protected by his soul power, was bleeding.
"Yu Yuanzhen deserves death, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan is equally to blame. I would rather die than allow this lunatic, Yu Yuanzhen, to continue offending the Soul Palace, so I came to inform the Palace Master in advance."
Xiao Mu didn't say anything, and Yu Luomian kept kowtowing as if she wanted to die here.
"Who was the person who went to see Yu Yuanzhen?"
Only when he heard Xiao Mu's voice again did Yu Luomian raise his broken head.
"That man is one of the masters behind all the fighting arenas in Douluo Continent, and he's also a Titled Douluo."
"Soul Fighting Arena?"
The Fighting Spirit Arena appears many times in the original Douluo Continent, but there is basically no mention of who its owner is and who controls it behind the scenes.
However, the fighting arenas are spread across the two empires, and they are doing a business that carries a lot of risks. It is conceivable that there are powerful forces behind them.
It is not impossible to have a Titled Douluo.
"With just a fighting arena and your Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan, you dare to attack my Soul Palace?"
Yu Luomian continued, "That's not all. The people in the Fighting Spirit Arena have also contacted other forces, including the Xingluo Empire royal family. As for more, I don't know everything."
"There are quite a few people gathered."
There may be other reasons why the Xingluo Empire royal family targeted the Soul Palace besides Dai Mubai's matter.
After all, Dai Mubai is not the eldest prince, nor is he the crown prince.
If Emperor Xingluo had not doted on Dai Mubai so much, he would never have done such irrational behavior.
The main reason is probably because the Soul Palace is located in the Tiandou Empire and is not far from Tiandou City.
The value displayed by the Soul Palace is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary sects and families.
The existence of elixirs has brought new changes to the entire Douluo Continent.
The Tiandou Royal Family, which is closer to the Soul Palace, faces unpredictable dangers, but also has huge benefits.
The existence of the Soul Palace has attracted countless soul masters to flock to the Tiandou Empire and even settle down there.
If even one percent of these soul masters would accept the recruitment of the Tiandou Empire, the strength of the Tiandou Empire would increase greatly, while the soul masters of the Xingluo Empire would continue to flow out.
The Tiandou Empire was able to gain the upper hand due to its proximity to the enemy, while the Xingluo Empire, which was far away, could only sigh in despair.
Whether it is purchasing elixirs or making friends with the Soul Palace, they are several steps behind the Tiandou Empire.
Even if the Tiandou Empire wanted to, it could find a way to stop the Xingluo Empire royal family from purchasing the elixir. Even if they bought it, it would be difficult for them to sell it.
Coupled with the incident of Dai Mubai, it became even more difficult for the Xingluo Empire to be on good terms with the Soul Palace.
Emperor Xingluo is a very ambitious man and absolutely cannot tolerate being left behind by the Tiandou Empire.
If this continues to grow while the other declines, it will be a question whether the Xingluo Empire can still exist as an empire.
If Emperor Xingluo wants to change this situation, there are many ways he can try.
For example, requesting the Soul Palace to move to the Xingluo Empire, or to the border between the two countries.
Or, before the gap in national strength between the two countries widens, he could take the initiative to provoke a war and destroy the Tiandou Empire in one fell swoop.
But Emperor Xingluo chose the most extreme method and joined forces with others to directly destroy the Soul Palace.
This method is the most direct, but also the most difficult.
"Since we've already discussed it, why haven't you started yet?"
Yu Luomian listened to Xiao Mu's light tone, without even a trace of anger, and knew that even if so many forces joined forces, the Soul Palace would not take them seriously.
"They were originally preparing to take action, but after Soul Palace's Yang Ziqi Tianzun single-handedly killed Clear Sky Douluo Tang Hao, they were intimidated and didn't dare to attack Soul Palace easily. Only recently have they become restless again and re-contacted Yu Yuanzhen."
I didn't expect that the battle between Yang Ziqi and Tang Hao would have so many other impacts.
Xiao Mu asked, "You know that even if you informed the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan of this news in advance, they wouldn't be able to escape the punishment of the Soul Palace, right?"
Yu Luomian continued to kowtow repeatedly.
"I understand. The majesty of the Soul Palace cannot be violated. Since I'm here, I'm prepared for the worst. My life or death is entirely up to the Palace Master."
