Chapter 104 The Twin Dragons are Dead, the Hidden Dragon Should Not Be Used.
"The two dragons are dead; the hidden dragon should not be used."
"Are the Twin Dragons dead?"
Dai Mubai's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he immediately had a bad feeling.
Sure enough, screams erupted a few seconds later.
"His Majesty has passed away!"
A voice filled with terror rang out.
Then came another wail.
"Weiss!"
Dai Mubai followed the sound and found his sister-in-law lying on his brother's corpse.
Davis's eyes were closed, and there was a deep wound on his neck.
"How is that possible!"
Dai Mubai clenched his fists, staring incredulously at the scene before him.
Who on earth could assassinate both his father and elder brother in one night?
However, a question arose in his mind.
Why were his father and elder brother assassinated, while he remained unharmed?
There were even notes on their own door.
Could it be something left by the murderer?
His father and eldest brother were stabbed, his second brother died young, and his other brothers were also incapable of being of great use.
In this way, he would be the only one left who could accept the throne.
Dai Mubai leaned against the door frame, his brows furrowed.
He didn't understand why the killer was doing this.
If the murderer wanted to destroy the Star Luo Empire, with his strength he could have easily slaughtered the entire palace, why would he have targeted only his elder brother and father?
"Your Highness, please put it on."
A general clad in armor strode quickly from a distance, carrying in his hands the imperial robe and the scepter symbolizing power.
"General Zhang, what exactly happened?"
Dai Mubai did not accept the yellow robe, but stared at the general in front of him with a solemn expression.
He just took a nap, how did things turn out like this?
He has defeated his elder brother and has been made the Crown Prince of Xingluo.
If the murderer wanted to take over the position, why would he kill his father and elder brother?
"You go and speak to the Crown Prince."
General Zhang made way for Dai Mubai, and a beautiful woman who was crying came into view.
The beautiful woman was the same one who had been next to Emperor Xingluo last night, and she still hadn't recovered from her shock.
"Your Highness! You must catch the murderer!"
The beautiful woman clung to Dai Mubai's right arm, tears streaming down her face.
"Consort Yu, could you describe what happened at that time?"
Dai Mubai frowned slightly and asked patiently.
Upon hearing this, Consort Yu took out a handkerchief to wipe away her tears and began to recall the scene from last night.
But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't remember what the killer looked like.
After a long while, she finally stammered:
"Suddenly a dark figure appeared, and then His Majesty was pierced by a sword."
"sword?"
Dai Mubai muttered to himself thoughtfully.
He hurriedly asked, "What color is that sword?"
Consort Yu replied, "The sword emitted a golden light, and the blade itself seemed to be golden as well."
"gold?"
Dai Mubai frowned, overturning his previous idea.
The strongest swordsman in the world was Sword Douluo Chen Xin, but he died a year ago.
Besides Chen Xin, the only swordsman Dai Mubai could think of was Su Mo.
According to the Empire's intelligence, Su Mo's current cultivation level is at least that of a Title Douluo.
But Dai Mubai had seen Su Mo's sword before; its blade was even redder than blood.
It has absolutely nothing to do with gold.
At this point, Dai Mubai was completely at a loss.
"Mu Bai, you must stand up for your elder brother!"
Zhu Zhuyun's eyes were filled with tears, and her tone was almost pleading.
She loved Davis deeply, and if the murderer hadn't yet been found, she would have already committed suicide to meet him.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will."
Dai Mubai said with a solemn expression.
He sighed and took the scepter and imperial robe from General Zhang.
Now, only he can take over this mess of the Star Luo Royal Family.
His face was full of exhaustion. Although he did not have a good relationship with his father and older brother, he did not want them to die.
He dragged his weary body through the handover ceremony and officially became the new Emperor of Xingluo.
Inside the main hall, Dai Mubai held his first court assembly since ascending the throne.
"Your Majesty, the Spirit Empire has declared war on the Heaven Dou Empire. Should we join the war?"
A minister said with a solemn expression.
Although the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire have been locked in a standoff for many years, if the Spirit Empire were to truly annex the Heaven Dou Empire, the Star Luo Empire would be the next to suffer.
As he listened to the minister's report, Dai Mubai suddenly remembered the note from a few days ago.
He finally understood the meaning of "a hidden dragon should not be used".
A profound sense of powerlessness washed over him, causing him to lean back on the throne.
He had already guessed that the assassin who killed his father and elder brother must be one of the elders of the Spirit Empire, or even Bibi Dong herself.
Perhaps only Bibi Dong herself possesses such power, but Bibi Dong's martial spirit is not a sword at all.
This candidate was immediately overturned by Dai Mubai.
He didn't know what to do. If he attacked the Spirit Empire, his head would be hung on the city wall tomorrow.
With his death, the Spirit Empire will inevitably take advantage of the situation.
He took a deep breath and looked at General Zhang standing beside him.
He then asked, "General Zhang, what is your opinion?"
General Zhang cupped his hands in a respectful gesture and said:
"I am a military general and do not understand politics."
Dai Mubai frowned slightly and said sternly:
"Speak if I tell you!"
"Even if you are wrong, I will not make things difficult for you. Please speak freely, General Zhang."
Upon hearing this, General Zhang breathed a sigh of relief and boldly expressed his opinion.
"In my opinion, Your Majesty should join forces with the Heavenly Dou to fight against the Martial Soul Empire."
"Although Xingluo has always been at odds with Tiandou, both countries are deeply rooted great powers. Now that a new great power has been established, it should be directly annihilated."
"Although the Spirit Empire has several Title Douluos, and even Super Douluos."
"But our Star Luo Empire also has a million-strong army. After joining forces with the Heaven Dou Empire, we will surely be able to defeat the Martial Soul Empire."
Hearing General Zhang's plan, Dai Mubai was immediately filled with excitement.
With such a capable general, what do I have to fear from the Martial Soul Empire?
Coupled with the hatred for his father's murder, Dai Mubai really wanted to fight the Spirit Empire himself!
"Then we shall obey General Zhang and declare war on the Martial Soul Empire immediately!"
Dai Mubai's expression was sharp, and he spoke firmly.
"Your Majesty is wise!"
The ministers echoed his sentiments.
Meanwhile, Tang San has returned to the Clear Sky Sect to acknowledge his ancestors and has subdued all four single-attribute families.
He is now level 67 and has obtained the 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone.
He originally intended to find his companions and use the fusion technique to take revenge on Su Mo.
However, the news of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's destruction forced him to take a longer-term view.
Several days later, in Tiandou City.
Ma Hongjun, Zhu Zhuqing, and Tang San arrived at the gate of Shrek Academy without prior arrangement.
Dai Mubai has already become the emperor, so naturally he won't come again.
Ning Rongrong and Chen Jian were already dead, and Oscar's whereabouts were unknown.
"You're back?"
Zhao Wuji walked out of the academy, his expression not good.
He looked at the three of them with mixed feelings, seemingly lost in thought.
"Teacher Zhao."
The three of them called out respectfully.
