Chapter 276 Orange's Plan
The power of the Extreme Douluo is so terrifying. Even though Ye Xishui's second martial soul does not have any soul rings attached, the soul power of the Extreme Douluo makes the martial soul itself possess extremely powerful power.
When Ye Xishui used her power without reservation, ordinary people would be swallowed up by her power even if they just came into contact with it.
In order to break the high-energy compression array soul guide shield, Ye Xishui used all his strength. Facing the full force of an Extreme Douluo, even though Xu Tianran was still wearing a humanoid soul guide, he was still affected by the residual power of Ye Xishui's attack when he could not muster up soul power to defend himself.
Orange, who was standing next to her, was also wearing a bright yellow humanoid soul guide. When she saw what was happening, she seemed to have just reacted. The mask on her face opened, and two lines of tears flowed from her eyes.
"His Majesty--"
"His Majesty!"
The light of the soul guide shield faded, and everyone saw Xu Tianran lying on the ground in Orange's arms. They no longer paid attention to where Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao were going.
Kong Deming in the air arrived next to Xu Tianran almost in the blink of an eye. When he swept his mental power over him, his face became a little uglier.
Xu Tianran was originally physically weak. Even though his cultivation had reached the level of Titled Douluo, he could not compare with a normal soul master. Other Titled Douluos could still rely on their bodies to withstand the attack, but Xu Tianran could not withstand such power.
As a tenth-level soul engineer, he was very familiar with the high-energy compression array soul guide device. This was the place that protected the imperial palace and was inspected every day. How could a flaw appear at this time? Moreover, even if the people who maintained the soul guide shield thought Ye Xishui was dead, they would not have withdrawn in a hurry before confirming it.
Taking a step back, even if there was a mistake, the humanoid soul guide on Xu Tianran was not an ordinary item. Ye Xishui was not attacking him. With his cultivation as a Titled Douluo, how could he be so easily harmed by fatal injuries?
I'm afraid there's something else behind this.
Over the past one hundred and fifty years, Kong Deming has witnessed too many changes in the royal family. Compared to other people around him who seemed a little panicked, he seemed much calmer.
His eyes swept over the orange, and Kong Deming spoke slowly, "I beg the Queen to accept my condolences. The most important thing right now is Ye Xishui's whereabouts. Evil soul masters have no bottom line in their actions. Now that we have completely torn our faces with Ye Xishui, I am afraid..."
Juzi raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face when she heard this. "Mr. Kong is absolutely right. I will issue an order to have the entire country search for soul guides day and night, and to put Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao on the wanted list."
"In addition, order the leader of Mingde Hall, Jing Hongchen, to lead people in a nationwide search to eliminate evil soul masters." As he spoke, Juzi stood up. His face had calmed down a lot, and he had some of the demeanor of the commander-in-chief of the three armies.
"But from now on, the prince and I will have to rely more on Mr. Kong's help."
"Since I have already accepted the prince as my disciple, this is what I should do."
Kong Deming nodded slightly, but at this moment, his eyes suddenly changed and looked at Orange.
There must be some hidden story behind Xu Tianran’s death, but what if no one investigates?
Juzi was just near Xu Tianran. Even she could block Ye Xishui's remaining power, let alone Xu Tianran.
She once commanded the three armies, and Kong Deming didn't believe that she didn't see something fishy, but she didn't say a word about it.
Kong Deming looked at Juzi again and saw that she was looking at him in the same way, without any fear in her eyes.
The emperor of the Sun-Moon Empire passed away, the crown prince was young, and the other princes had been eliminated in the previous rebellion. Except for Orange in front of him, there was no suitable person to take charge of the affairs for a while.
Although Juzi's cultivation level was not high, Kong Deming still looked up to her.
I don't know if she just went with the flow or if everything was driven by her. Now all the affairs of the Sun Moon Empire fell on her, and the first order she issued was to eliminate the evil soul masters. Once this order was issued, the people who didn't know the inside story would naturally be inclined to her. As for Xu Tianran's death, it can be pushed onto Ye Xishui. Even if some people suspect that she was unharmed under Ye Xishui's attack, it can be explained by the reason that she was protected by Xu Tianran. After all, Xu Tianran's loyalty is well known to everyone, and there is only Juzi in the entire harem.
Moreover, although this apprenticeship banquet was only for the purpose of bringing Ye Xishui into the palace, the fact that he accepted the prince as his apprentice was also a fact, and the person standing behind them mother and son was none other than the "Father of Soul Guidance Devices."
If all this was planned by Orange, she even took herself, a tenth-level soul master, into account.
In a flash, Kong Deming's mind was filled with a thousand thoughts. Looking at the oranges in front of him, he finally sighed in his heart.
As he said, he has lived for more than 150 years and has seen countless changes of the throne. He doesn't care who sits on the throne. As long as that person is from the royal family of the Sun-Moon Empire, it is enough.
As the night ended and the day dawned, Juzi, dressed in palace attire, looked at the prince in her arms in a daze.
She no longer had to worry about Xu Tianran's erratic personality, which made her feel a little more at ease.
Now, she is in power.
When she followed Xu Tianran, who loved war, besides the hatred for her parents, did she also have a little ambition in her heart?
On the other side, Ye Xishui had already brought Long Xiaoyao back to the Holy Spirit Church headquarters in the Demon Forest.
After all, this is the territory of the Evil Emperor. He has an agreement with the Holy Spirit Church and can protect the Holy Spirit Church. Even though Kong Deming is already a tenth-level soul engineer, he still has to be cautious when facing the Evil Emperor, who has cultivated for nearly 800,000 years.
"Xiaoyao, how are you?"
An expression that had never appeared on Ye Xishui's face before appeared, and her eyes were full of concern as she looked at Long Xiaoyao.
Kong Deming's attack, which was beyond his limit, was finally blocked by Long Xiaoyao and Ye Xishui.
The power of the two Extreme Douluos, plus Ye Xishui's second martial soul that had never been displayed, allowed them to survive Kong Deming's attack.
Long Xiaoyao opened his eyes. At this moment, Ye Xishui no longer had the evil aura of the past. On the contrary, she exuded a faint glow, which made the whole room a little warmer. The vengeful spirits here turned into nothing as soon as they approached her, as if they were ignited.
"Cough cough." Long Xiaoyao coughed violently a few times, and a blush appeared on his face.
Ye Xishui hurriedly hugged him and used her soul power to heal his wounds.
"Xishui, I'm fine." Long Xiaoyao's voice was a little hoarse, but he still forced a smile.
"What a great Sun Moon Empire." Seeing this, Ye Xishui breathed a sigh of relief, but her brows were still tightly furrowed. "Xiaoyao, I want to go to Jialing Pass."
"What are you doing there?"
"I will definitely not forget what the Sun-Moon Empire did today, but before that, I also need strength that exceeds my limits."
