Chapter 113: The Star Luo Emperor, borrowing the tiger's might

"If there is nothing else, then stop while you can."

The Sea God's voice ceased; he was waiting for Qian Qianji's answer.

Qian Qianji was indeed not prepared to go to war with the God Realm at this moment.

His side was severely lacking in high-end combat power; if they were to go to war with the God Realm, the final outcome would likely be nothing more than having to leave the Douluo Continent.

Qian Qianji thought for a moment, and through the unique connection of the Sea God's Soul Control Seal, he replied: "Sea God, it is more appropriate for you to step forward in this matter than me."

"Very well," the Sea God agreed, then immediately asked: "Qian Qianji, if you win in the future, you won't kill the donkey the moment it leaves the mill, will you?"

Qian Qianji immediately swore: "Sea God, rest assured. I stake my character on it: if I win against the God Realm in the future, I will absolutely not kill you."

"After all, you are a great contributor to our side, and you have played an indispensable role in this."

"With that, I am at ease." The Sea God's voice fell completely silent.

Qian Qianji also entered a state of cultivation once again.

……

God Realm, Sea God Hall.

The Sea God cast his gaze toward the Douluo Continent.

Between rescuing the Star Luo Emperor and seeking out Qian Renxue, the Sea God chose to rescue the Star Luo Emperor first, and then go to negotiate with Qian Renxue.

……

Douluo Continent, Star Luo Empire.

The first line of defense.

At this moment, the Star Luo Emperor was beyond tears; he had lost even his last shred of hope. He simply had no ability to escape from the hands of Snake Lance and Demon Bear.

Demon Bear and Snake Lance had already forced the Star Luo Emperor into a valley, completely blocking any possibility of his escape.

The Star Luo Emperor was filled with extreme unwillingness; he was the ruler of a nation, and he never imagined that one day he would fall into such a plight.

He still fantasized about leaving the Douluo Continent, heading overseas to find an island, and living the life of his own small empire.

Consequently, he spoke to persuade them: "Snake Lance, Demon Bear, why must you push so hard? As long as you two let me go today, I will surely bring out a vast amount of treasures to thank you."

"Furthermore, I will leave the Douluo Continent immediately and not cause you any more trouble."

"How about it?"

Snake Lance laughed disdainfully: "Treasures?"

"You surnamed Dai, you are truly naive. If we kill you and annex the Star Luo Empire, won't the treasures be ours anyway?"

"Besides, let you go?"

"You are a great achievement; how could we possibly let you go?"

"Just obediently accept your fate today."

"Snake Lance, Demon Bear, I am not a pushover either. Must you force me to death today?"

"Have you considered the consequences?"

"One of you might die because of this!" The Star Luo Emperor's eyes were extremely sinister.

"You surnamed Dai, trying to scare me?"

Snake Lance mocked with extreme disdain: "Even if you, surnamed Dai, were smashed to pieces today, Demon Bear and I would be fine."

"Demon Bear, let's go. Let's go in and show this guy some color."

"I have the same intention." Demon Bear followed Snake Lance's pace into the valley.

"Since you push me so hard, even if I die today, I will not let you have it easy." The Star Luo Emperor became completely ruthless, once again unleashing his eighth soul skill, advancing instead of retreating, and charging at Snake Lance and Demon Bear with a roar.

At this moment, Demon Bear had already unleashed his martial soul avatar, and his hundred-meter-tall body was directly suppressing the Star Luo Emperor.

Snake Lance assisted from the side, not giving the Star Luo Emperor any chance to fight to the death.

The Star Luo Emperor felt hatred in his heart! Just as he was about to be suppressed by Demon Bear, the Sea God appeared.

"Stop, all of you."

Snake Lance and Demon Bear frowned, looking at the Sea God with wariness.

Although they did not know who the stranger before them was, both knew that the person in front of them was unfathomable.

But as soon as Snake Lance and Demon Bear thought of the Angel God behind them, they instantly regained their confidence.

Snake Lance asked: "Who are you, and why do you block us from capturing the one surnamed Dai?"

"I am the Sea God. You two mortals should hold the corresponding respect for me."

"Your Wu Hun Empire has already annexed the Heaven Dou Empire; you should know when to stop, rather than continuing to provoke war without cause."

"Stop now, and have your Wu Hun Empire soldiers retreat back to the Wu Hun Empire."

"This is not a negotiation, but an order." The Sea God looked at Snake Lance and Demon Bear with majesty.

The faces of Snake Lance and Demon Bear were very ugly; they had deeply experienced what it meant for a cooked duck to fly away.

The Sea God saw the difficulty of Snake Lance and Demon Bear and continued: "I know, it was Qian Renxue who issued this order."

"I will speak with Qian Renxue personally; she will not hold you two accountable."

Snake Lance and Demon Bear stood where they were, not moving.

The Star Luo Emperor, however, began to borrow the tiger's might at this moment. He shouted loudly: "Snake Lance, Demon Bear, why haven't you rolled back to the Wu Hun Empire yet? Do you even want to defy the orders of a god?"

"Do you two want to defy my orders?" The Sea God pressured them with divine might.

Snake Lance and Demon Bear found it hard to breathe.

Both understood that even if they added all the soldiers on this expedition, they would not be the Sea God's match, so there was no need for meaningless sacrifice.

"Since it is the word of the Sea God, I shall naturally return and report to our Emperor."

"Withdraw the troops, return to the Empire."

Snake Lance shouted, his voice spreading across the first line of defense of the Star Luo Empire.

Although the soldiers of the Wu Hun Empire were very confused as to why they were withdrawing when they were on the verge of a complete victory, they followed orders strictly; even though they were extremely confused, they chose to stop and turned back to return to the Wu Hun Empire.

Snake Lance and Demon Bear did not waste words either, following closely behind the army, intending to report today's events to Qian Renxue as soon as possible.

The Star Luo Emperor watched the retreating Wu Hun Empire army, feeling very fortunate in his heart, believing that he had received the protection of the Sea God and would no longer have to fear the Wu Hun Empire.

He also did not need to flee the Douluo Continent and head overseas.

He was still the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire.

The Star Luo Emperor looked at the Sea God with a fawning expression and said: "My respected and great Lord Sea God, thank you so much. Fortunately, I had you; if it weren't for you, I would surely have faced certain death today."

"Rest assured, I will order people to build statues of you in every town of the Star Luo Empire, so that everyone in the Star Luo Empire will believe in you."

"It is enough that you have this heart. I still need to make a trip to the Wu Hun Empire." After the Sea God finished speaking, he disappeared directly.

The Star Luo Emperor felt slightly regretful; he had wanted to invite the Sea God to sit in his imperial palace and discuss with the Sea God whether there was any possibility for him to become a god.

Now it seemed there was no such opportunity.

However, thinking that the Star Luo Empire had received the protection of the Sea God, the Star Luo Emperor was happy from the bottom of his heart, and he returned to Star Luo City first.

……

Douluo Continent, Star Luo Empire.

The Clear Sky Sect.

"Sect Master, good news, great good news! We don't have to leave, we don't have to leave!" Tang Feng knocked on the door of Tang Hao's bedchamber.
