Capítulo 1935: Chapter 1889: Dai Yueyan's Succession (Please Subscribe)_1
Dai Yueyan's face darkened, "Do you ministers mean to say that you want me to give up resisting the Holy Spirit Cult and submit to them?"
He had figured it out; these ministers had already begun to fear the Holy Spirit Cult from the bottom of their hearts!
The ministers hurriedly explained, "Your Highness, that's not what we mean, but as it stands, our Xingluo Empire is indeed no match for the Holy Spirit Cult!"
"Moreover, according to information from the Soul Master we've planted within the Holy Spirit Cult, one of the Four Heavenly Kings, Dark Bell, has raised his soul power rank to the Ultimate Douluo!"
"That's right, once war breaks out, we will be facing tens of thousands of evil Soul Masters, as well as four to five Limit Douluo level powerhouses! With such strength, even the powerhouse-filled Shrek Academy would be no match!"
An Ultimate Douluo guarding Dai Yueyan's side also sighed...
Clearly, even he did not believe the Xingluo Empire stood the slightest chance...
Seeing this, Dai Yueyan gave the ministers a complex look and said word by word, "Gentlemen, I know what you're thinking, but if the Xingluo Empire is ruled by the Holy Spirit Cult, then the next one will definitely be the Soul Land. By then, no matter where you flee, it will be useless!"
"Therefore, no matter how great the disparity between us, we must never give up resisting!!"
After a pause, he continued, "Convey my orders, immediately recall all Soul Masters and troops who are out on assignments, and prepare for war against the Holy Spirit Cult!"
To let him, Dai Yueyan, hand over the Xingluo Empire to the Holy Spirit Cult, would be impossible!!
...
After concluding, Dai Yueyan came to the outer quarters of Dai's sleeping palace...
Before even entering, he could hear Dai Yun'er's words full of deep concern, "Father Emperor, your health is deteriorating rapidly. If this continues, it is very likely..."
That was followed by the extremely weak voice of Dai Tianling, "Yun'er, don't worry, I am still very robust! At the very least, I can hold out until Yueyan succeeds the throne! Cough cough..."
Dai Yueyan took a deep breath and gently knocked on the door...
"It must be Yueyan, come in!"
After receiving permission, he pushed the door open and walked in, to be met with the sight of Dai Tianling, who was lying on the bed, so emaciated he barely looked human anymore.
And standing by his side, with reddened eyes, was Dai Yun'er...
Dai Yueyan respectfully called out, "Father Emperor!"
Upon his arrival, Dai Tianling looked at Dai Yun'er, "Yun'er, you go out first. I have some words to discuss alone with your brother!"
Dai Yun'er nodded slightly, "Yes, Father Emperor!"
After indicating to Dai Yueyan with a glance, she then left the sleeping quarters...
Once she was gone, Dai Tianling coughed and said, "Yueyan, help me sit up!"
Dai Yueyan cautiously helped him up, clenching his fist and saying, "Father Emperor, has your health still not improved?"
Dai Tianling shook his head, "My time is probably not much longer..."
Before he could finish, Dai Yueyan immediately interrupted, "That won't happen, Father Emperor, you have to witness me assuming the throne!"
Dai Tianling merely smiled...
He was very aware of his own physical condition; it would be a miracle if he could last another month or two!
He then changed the subject, "Yueyan, I have heard about the words you spoke earlier in the great hall!"
Dai Yueyan was initially startled, then hesitantly said, "Father Emperor, do you think my actions are correct? Going to war with the Holy Spirit Cult could very well doom the Xingluo Empire!"
"If so, the citizens of the Xingluo Empire will suffer an indelible blow!"
Only by putting oneself in others' shoes can one realize the determination it took to make such a choice!
Upon hearing this, Dai Tianling spoke seriously, "No... Yueyan, what you're doing is correct, the Xingluo Empire will not submit to anyone!"
"Furthermore, you are becoming more and more like a worthy emperor, just this alone makes your father very relieved!"
"If the Xingluo Empire is fortunate enough to survive this calamity, you will be an outstanding emperor!"
Dai Yueyan's throat tightened, "Father…"
Dai Tianling clasped the latter's hands and whispered, "Prepare for the coronation ceremony in a few days!"
Dai Yueyan tried to pull away, "No… Your Majesty is still alive, how can I…"
Dai Tianling's tone grew increasingly stern, "Yueyan… This is your father's final request, do you intend to let me die with eyes wide open?"
Dai Yueyan's heart quivered violently, "Father, I—I…"
After much deliberation, he still closed his eyes in anguish…
"Father, I understand!"
...
A few days later, the Xingluo Empire successfully held the coronation ceremony, and Dai Tianling officially passed the throne to Dai Yueyan...
And it was unanimously agreed upon by all the Daijins!
In the following months, Dai Tianling had withered to skin and bones, and even with the combined efforts of multiple healing class Soul Masters, he did not pull through...
The once ruler of a nation, Dai Tianling, has fallen!
...
Spirit Pagoda!
Leng Yaozhu spoke, "Who would have thought that Dai Tianling, the ruler of a nation, would pass away so young, but it's fortunate that he passed on the throne to Dai Yueyan beforehand! Otherwise, the Xingluo Empire might have faced another uprising!"
Qiangu Qingfeng narrowed his eyes and said, "The last time I saw Dai Tianling, his health was even better than that of a normal Soul Master. Logically, he should have lived another twenty years without any problem!"
"There must be some other reason for this!"
Upon hearing this, Leng Yaozhu expressed her surprise, "Vice Tower Master, are you suggesting that Dai Yueyan has something to do with Dai Tianling's demise?"
If Dai Yueyan wanted to assume the emperor's position sooner, that would make sense.
However, Qiangu Qingfeng shook his head, denying this, "No, Dai Tianling as the emperor would have certainly been able to discern right from wrong. If Dai Yueyan truly harbored ill intentions, he definitely wouldn't have passed the throne to him!"
Leng Yaozhu rested her chin in her hand, "Then… it must be the work of the Holy Spirit Cult."
Qiangu Qingfeng neither confirmed nor denied, "Hmm, the mastermind behind this should indeed be the Holy Spirit Cult!"
"They probably wanted to use the death of Dai Tianling to demoralize the Xingluo Empire, but they didn't expect that he would make such a sudden move beforehand!"
Leng Yaozhu was resigned, "Anyways, Dai Tianling has fallen, and continuing to pursue these matters is pointless!"
"By the way, Vice Tower Master, how is that child Gu Yue doing?"
Qiangu Qingfeng replied immediately, "I sent people to investigate, and it seems she has joined the Blood God Army with Tang Wulin. She is currently a Lieutenant!"
Leng Yaozhu said appreciatively, "Worthy of being the successor I had in mind, she will not fall short wherever she goes!"
Qiangu Qingfeng glanced at her and said gravely, "However, what puzzles me more is why Elder Xu from the Sea God's Pavilion has also joined the Blood God Army!"
Leng Yaozhu casually said, "It's probably to protect those two children. After all, he's been instructing them since childhood!"
Qiangu Qingfeng spoke coldly, "I doubt that. This Elder Xu, he might well be there for the abyss!"
As for the specific purpose, that remains unclear!
