Chapitre 584: Chapter 584: Three-Tailed Demon Fox’s Right Arm Bone and the Star Luo Royal Family
After Ning Rongrong's knives had wounded the three-tailed demon fox, she maintained her focus, carefully aiming her five sharp knives. They flew like streaks of lightning toward the wounded fox, which, sensing danger, suddenly flashed its pink-glowing eyes—using its charm ability!
Unfortunately for the fox, Ning Rongrong remained unaffected, and her five knives struck the vital points of the beast, piercing through its defenses.
Even as it died, the three-tailed demon fox couldn't comprehend why its charm ability failed on Ning Rongrong. Observing from the sidelines, Chen Xin and the others exhaled in relief. They had thought that the fox's charm skill might throw Rongrong off, giving it a chance to counterattack, but to their surprise, her knives hit their mark perfectly.
With a playful smile, Ning Rongrong felt satisfied with her performance, despite knowing her battle skills still had some room for improvement.
As for why the charm skill didn't affect her, it was simple—her spiritual power exceeded that of the fox.
"You did wonderfully, Rongrong!" Chen Xin praised without hesitation.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan had finally found a capable successor. Ning Rongrong was indeed growing stronger.
As Ning Fengzhi was about to remind her to absorb the spirit ring, he noticed a sudden intense glow emanating from the fox's body.
"This light… could it be a spirit bone?" Ning Fengzhi murmured in disbelief.
Chen Xin quickly approached the fox's body, extended a finger, and a spirit bone rose into the air, hovering before them.
Chen Xin chuckled, "Rongrong, you're truly lucky! It's a 30,000-year right arm bone from the three-tailed demon fox!"
Though she had expected it, Ning Rongrong couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement. This spirit bone was a perfect match for her abilities.
Ning Fengzhi smiled, "Go ahead, Rongrong. Absorb the spirit ring and the spirit bone; we'll stand guard for you."
Nodding vigorously, Ning Rongrong began the absorption process.
Meanwhile, in the Star Luo Empire…
Upon returning to the palace, Davis's group quickly reported the events of the Spirit Master Tournament to Emperor Xing Luo.
"What! You ungrateful fool!" Emperor Xing Luo roared, his gaze fixed on the now gray-haired, spirit-less Dai Mubai.
"Davis! Why did you bring him back? He's useless now; he'd have been better off dead than tarnishing our family name with his disgraceful pursuit of dark power!"
Davis internally sighed. He knew his father was speaking out of anger, but if he'd left Dai Mubai behind, he would have faced even worse consequences.
"Father, what should we do next? The power of the Spirit Hall is now undeniable, and it's clear that Star Luo alone may not be able to withstand them," Davis suggested.
Thinking of Su Ming's terrifying strength, he added, "If Su Ming has indeed inherited divine powers, we should avoid any direct conflict with him."
Hearing this, Emperor Xing Luo's frustration mounted. This situation indeed posed a serious dilemma for the empire.
"For now, let's set aside the matter of Su Ming and the Spirit Hall and observe the Heaven Dou Empire's response," he said. Turning to Dai Mubai, he continued, "And you, is there anything you'd like to say?"
Dai Mubai, still on his knees, raised his head defiantly. "I'm not satisfied!"
Emperor Xing Luo frowned, "What is it you're not satisfied with?"
Knowing he had no more hope of reclaiming the throne, Dai Mubai no longer held back.
"Hahaha…" he laughed bitterly. "I'm not satisfied with the way the royal competition works. Why should the loser be crippled and exiled?"
"Davis was born years before me; no matter how hard I tried, I never stood a chance!"
"Look at Davis's ruthlessness; I was forced to the edge! Did any of you think I wanted this? I had no choice!"
Despair filled Dai Mubai's eyes as he scanned the faces around him.
Emperor Xing Luo shook his head in disappointment. "Whether you had a chance or not is something you know best."
"Think back—when you fled to the Heaven Dou Empire, you spent your days indulging in debauchery, reaching only rank 25 by age 15. Who can you blame?"
"Joining that shabby Shrek Academy, with no resources—what were you thinking? This all stems from your own weakness."
"Guards! Take Dai Mubai away and lock him up. No one is to release him without my permission!"
The royal family was indeed ruthless. By sparing Dai Mubai's life, Emperor Xing Luo had already shown all the mercy he was willing to extend.
Looking over at the trembling Marquis Zhu, father of Zhu Zhuqing and Zhu Zhuyun, he asked, "So it's true that Zhu Zhuqing has joined the Spirit Hall and even become a disciple of Ghost Douluo?"
The emperor's gaze then fell upon the kneeling Marquis Zhu and Zhu Zhuyun.
"Your Majesty, my family bears deep guilt!" the marquis pleaded.
"Please, Your Majesty, have mercy!" Zhu Zhuyun added, bowing low.
Emperor Xing Luo remained silent, his gaze fixed upon them. Their reaction was so dramatic—it was just a question, not a judgment.
He had no intention of punishing them. If he ordered the execution of the Zhu family, his own head would likely be displayed at the city gate by Ghost Douluo within days.
Sensing his father's tension, Davis quickly interjected, "Father, the issue here isn't that Zhuqing was unworthy of Mubai but rather that we must now focus on our position with regard to the Spirit Hall and Heaven Dou. Everything else can wait."
Davis hoped to steer his father away from rash decisions that could provoke Su Ming and the Spirit Hall. He had a growing, instinctive fear of Su Ming that he couldn't shake.
Chapitre 585: Chapter 585: Return to the Spirit Hall and Future Arrangements
The Emperor of Star Luo heaved a heavy sigh, saying, "Stand up. Right now, we must think of a proper strategy."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The heads of the Zhu family and Zhu Zhuyun expressed their gratitude in unison.
In truth, the Zhu family head felt elated. Regardless of the final outcome, he was confident that, as long as they acted with restraint, they could ensure the family's survival.
Heaven Dou Empire, Imperial Palace
In the grand hall of the Heaven Dou Empire's palace, Emperor Xue Ye looked pale as he addressed Xue Qinghe weakly, "Crown Prince, send an envoy to the Star Luo Empire. We need to gauge if they have any interest in forming an alliance."
"Yes, Father," Qian Renxue responded respectfully, though her gaze betrayed a hint of false concern. "Father, with the continent in such turmoil, please take care of yourself."
"Cough… cough…" Emperor Xue Ye coughed slightly before responding, "I'm fine. Xue Beng's reckless behavior has just infuriated me. With some rest, I'll be well again. Keep close watch on the Spirit Hall and Star Luo Empire."
He added, "Also, send someone to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan. Even if Su Ming and the others have joined the Spirit Hall, we still need to understand the situation with Sect Master Ning's daughter. Whether Ning Rongrong left because of a dispute or for other reasons…"
Emperor Xue Ye's eyes flashed with worry and a glint of fear. He hoped things wouldn't take a turn for the worst.
Qian Renxue then reported, "Father, our scouts have informed us that Sect Master Ning, Sword Douluo, and Ning Rongrong have gone to the Star Dou Forest to hunt for a suitable spirit beast, leaving only Bone Douluo at the sect."
"A spirit beast hunt? Could it be that Ning Rongrong has reached rank 50?" Emperor Xue Ye was uneasy, yet he masked it as he said, "Very well. Once they return, invite Sect Master Ning to the palace."
Qian Renxue nodded in agreement.
Meanwhile, Su Ming and his companions made their way back to the Spirit Hall, arriving just five days before the ceremony. He had Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo arrange for their guests' accommodations, while he headed to the Pope's Palace.
"Da Ming, Er Ming, Ah Yin, follow me," he called to the trio.
Ah Yin looked puzzled. "Su Ming, why are we going to the Pope's Palace?"
Su Ming chuckled, "If you'd rather not appear, you can always stay in my mental space."
Da Ming and Er Ming exchanged excited glances. "Su Ming, will we finally get to see Xiao Wu's mother?"
"We should, though only for a few seconds. I need to discuss some plans with the Pope and ask you to assist Bibi Dong while I'm away."
Da Ming nodded thoughtfully. "Understood. After our time in the human world, we've learned quite a bit and can avoid causing any issues."
Er Ming scratched his head with a grin, "I'll be glad to help with any heavy lifting, but leave the brainy stuff to Da Ming."
Su Ming shook his head with a laugh, already aware of Er Ming's straightforward nature. He only hoped that Er Ming would keep his impulsiveness in check.
Pope's Palace
As soon as Su Ming and Da Ming and Er Ming stepped into the Pope's Palace, Bibi Dong appeared, immediately sensing the two powerful presences beside Su Ming.
"Su Ming, who are these two?" Bibi Dong asked with a raised brow.
Su Ming thought to himself, Let her keep up the act. He knew Bibi Dong had seen everything in his journal and the occasional live broadcast, so there was no way she didn't recognize Da Ming and Er Ming.
"Teacher, these two are called Niu Tian and Tai Tan. They were childhood friends of Xiao Wu in the Star Dou Forest and are also regarded as children of Xiao Wu's mother."
Bibi Dong looked at Da Ming and Er Ming in surprise. "Are you two the Hundred Thousand Year Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape from the Star Dou Forest?"
"But why do you appear in this form? Normally, after transformation, you'd be in the form of six-year-old children."
Er Ming's gruff voice echoed, "That's because we're Su Ming's spirit souls. With a spirit soul over a hundred thousand years, we can restore our true forms."
Bibi Dong looked at Su Ming with understanding, nodding thoughtfully.
"So, Su Ming, why did you bring them out of the Star Dou Forest?"
Su Ming explained, "Teacher, I've reached rank 70, and after the Spirit Hall's inauguration, I'll be heading to Sea God Island for trials. I plan to take Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo with me, so I'm leaving Da Ming and Er Ming here to assist you."
"Oh? Are you planning for them to undergo the Sea God Island trials as well?" she asked, her tone intrigued. "But they're both older, and their potential is mostly exhausted. Are you sure they can handle it?"
Su Ming replied confidently, "No need to worry, Teacher. I've already given both Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo each a celestial herb, bringing their strength up to rank 96, and Ghost Douluo's martial spirit evolved into the Ghost Emperor. Their potential is still strong enough."
"We're aiming for the red-level trial. Even if that proves impossible, they should be able to manage a black-level one."
"What's the difference between red and black-level trials?" Bibi Dong asked, puzzled.
Su Ming elaborated, "The red-level trial on Sea God Island grants all spirit rings an increase in age. If the participant passes every trial, their spirit rings gain an additional ten thousand years. It would be an immense advantage to the two elders' future strength."
He continued, "As we know, gods like Shura and Sea God aren't exactly fair. Even if we achieve godhood first, they might send high-ranking officials or tier-three gods to obstruct us."
"If Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo reach rank 99, their combined martial fusion technique may be vital in a critical moment. The odds are low, but it's worth attempting."
Su Ming knew ordinary spirit skills had no effect on divine beings.
