Soon, a figure in a black bodysuit appeared before Zhu Zhuyun, seemingly telling her something.
"Oh? You mean, the Holy Son of Spirit Hall has also arrived?"
Zhu Zhuyun narrowed her eyes, frowned, and said in a low voice, "If that guy also followed… it seems you need to be more discreet with your actions. Remember not to harm the Holy Son of Spirit Hall, and leave no evidence."
"It's best not to provoke Spirit Hall."
After the person in black left, Zhu Zhuyun smiled slightly: "My dear sister, I hope you like this welcoming gift I've given you. Consider it a surprise I prepared to welcome you back."
… "This Star Luo City is much more prosperous than Heaven Dou City." Kai and Zhu Zhuqing walked on the streets of Star Luo City. He looked around. Indeed, if some factors were excluded, just comparing the national power of the Star Luo Empire and the Heaven Dou Empire…
Then the Star Luo Empire would certainly be stronger.
"That's natural. All this time, it has actually been affected by Spirit Hall's checks and balances. Otherwise, the Heaven Dou Empire might have been destroyed by our Star Luo Empire long ago," Zhu Zhuqing explained from the side.
"Haha, how strong is the Star Luo Empire?"
Kai asked with some curiosity.
Even though he had some understanding of the original work, he wasn't very clear about the specific strength of the Star Luo Empire.
"The King of the Star Luo Empire, who is Dai Mubai's father, is only a Soul Douluo who has just reached that level. But the reason why the Star Luo Empire's combat power far surpasses the Heaven Dou Empire is not only because of the large number of Soul Masters, but also because of the cruel imperial struggle."
Zhu Zhuqing clenched her fists and said, "In the imperial struggle, only the victor is worthy of survival."
"Therefore, this also lays the foundation for your Star Luo Empire's overall combat power to be stronger."
Kai was thoughtful. Just a Soul Douluo.
With his current strength, killing a Soul Douluo was not a problem.
"Hmm, this kind of cruel imperial struggle makes me feel immense hatred." Resentment appeared in Zhu Zhuqing's eyes: "And why must my Zhu family always be a foil for their Dai family? Is our purpose just to allow them to have Martial Soul Fusion Skills…?"
As the two walked, all the surrounding lights suddenly went out.
Kai looked around and said disdainfully, "It seems your sister's welcoming method is quite unique."
"Just a Soul Saint."
Kai's gaze locked onto the front. A strange figure had appeared there at some point. The person was dressed in a black bodysuit, and a powerful spirit power instantly swept out from his body, locking onto Zhu Zhuqing.
The oppressive feeling of a Soul Saint, while it made Zhu Zhuqing feel pressure, she did not react like an ordinary Soul King.
Because Zhu Zhuqing is now considered an outstanding individual at the Soul King level, the physical enhancements brought by her two ten thousand year spirit rings are very significant.
Not to mention, there was also Kai's Immortal Herb.
"Swish!"
A black shadow swept past Kai and went towards Zhu Zhuqing.
Below his feet, one white, three yellow, and three black spirit rings appeared. spirit power condensed in his hand, releasing his Martial Soul, which was a uniquely shaped greatsword.
The greatsword condensed powerful spirit power, and at the same time, the Fourth spirit ring on his body lit up: "Fourth Spirit Skill, Overlord's Slash!"
Seeing Zhu Zhuqing standing still without dodging, the man also showed a smug smile, but soon he couldn't smile anymore. Kai had appeared in front of him at some point.
As the Chaos Splitting Axe condensed, the Overlord's Slash released by the black-robed man lost all its power the moment it touched the Chaos Splitting Axe.
"Boom!"
As the greatsword shattered into dust, the man flew backward, constantly spitting blood in mid-air, looking at Kai in disbelief, his eyes filled with terror.
Just a touch, and his Martial Soul actually shattered directly!
"Your Martial Soul… it's too powerful. It shattered his Martial Soul with just one strike," Zhu Zhuqing said with some surprise.
"No need to be surprised. What he possesses is merely a mutated cleaver Martial Soul. No matter how much it mutates, it's still a knife for cutting melons and vegetables. This Soul Saint your sister sent is very weak."
Kai walked forward expressionlessly, and a ray of light erupted from the Chaos Splitting Axe in his hand, instantly killing the man.
"Leave the body. Consider it a return gift for your sister."
Kai waved his hand and left with Zhu Zhuqing.
"I didn't expect her to still not let me go. If I had come back alone this time…"
Zhu Zhuqing sighed. Even though she had already joined Spirit Hall, she had no intention of competing with Zhu Zhuyun for imperial status, but the latter still refused to let her go. If she were alone, she might truly have gone and never returned.
"Speaking of which, do you think Dai Mubai has also returned to Star Luo?" Kai suddenly said with a smile to Zhu Zhuqing beside him.
Zhu Zhuqing froze for a moment and gave Kai an annoyed look.
Did he have to bring up that guy Dai Mubai?
"He…"
Before Zhu Zhuqing could finish speaking, she saw a drunkard staggering out of a brothel ahead, embracing a pair of scantily clad young women, his hands constantly exploring their bodies… "Oh, speak of the devil."
Kai was also somewhat surprised to see this person, then he just felt like laughing.
Has this Dai Mubai fallen so far now?
Perfect, let Zhu Zhuqing see for herself what kind of person this guy truly is… Zhu Zhuqing looked at Dai Mubai, who was embracing women on both sides, with a strange expression. She turned to Kai and said, "Let's go."
Kai shrugged and followed.
Dai Mubai did not notice Zhu Zhuqing and Kai, still engrossed in the bodies of the two young women.
Kai knew that Dai Mubai was completely ruined.
Even if he had good talent now, he only had the strength of a Soul Ancestor. With this strength, he couldn't contend for the imperial position.
So, his fate was predictable.
"Perhaps I should have killed him just now," Zhu Zhuqing suddenly said.
"His destiny is already set. Why would you dirty your own hands? Let's go, I'll accompany you to the imperial palace."
Kai and Zhu Zhuqing walked all the way to outside the imperial palace. Soon, a man and a woman came out of the imperial palace. Kai was very familiar with both of them, having met them before.
It was Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun.
"Zhuqing, why didn't you tell your sister you were coming back? That way, your sister could have sent someone to pick you up," Zhu Zhuyun said warmly, as if the matter of wanting to murder her own sister had nothing to do with her.
