  Tang Wulin nodded solemnly. “The Holy Spirit Cult was able to destroy our Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect’s headquarters. Then, they brought the same chaos to many other places as well.” While he was speaking, his gaze swept across the decor of the rear courtroom. There was no need to use words to explain what he was thinking.

  Dai Yueyan could not stop himself from saying, “Tang Sect Master, are you trying to alarm us with your fantastic claims? Even if the Holy Spirit Cult were to slip into our empire, their main forces should still be in the Douluo Federation.”


  Tang Wulin spoke, “We should still be cautious in everything we do. Chaos is most beneficial to the Holy Spirit Cult. It’s difficult to tell if they’re aggravating the conflict in this war. According to the newest information, the Federation has sealed the entire shoreline and every form of radar detection. Moreover, they’re carrying out surveillance on a large scale. No one has any idea of when the federal fleet will appear at sea. Thus, we rushed here as soon as we could, hoping that Your Majesty could make a decision soon.”


  Everything that he needed to say, he had already told Dai Yueyan yesterday. It was actually more important for him to wait for the emperor’s decision at present or proposed terms from Tang Sect’s compromisation.

  The Tang Sect was not simply dealing in arms, as its most important request was that any use of these weapons must first receive the Tang Sect’s permission. The weapons could only be utilized when necessary and not used to initiate a war.

  For that, the Tang Sect would be encrypting all the weapons and equipment provided by them so that the weapons could only be used with the passcode provided by the Tang Sect itself. This was an enormous restriction. Those that purchased the equipment were not allowed to use it at will, which was quite limiting. Otherwise, there was no reason for the Star Luo Empire or the Dou Spirit Empire to reject the purchase of powerful soul weapons.

  Dai Tianling looked at Tang Wulin with a burning gaze. He said, “Tang Sect Master, it is truly quite difficult for us to accept the Tang Sect’s request no matter how you see this. However, we do genuinely need this batch of weapons if a war can possibly happen at any time right now. Why don’t we place a bet?”


  The whole time he spoke, Dai Tianling remained smiling.

  A bet? Tang Wulin found it absurd that such a word come out from the mouth of the ruler of a great empire! Moreover, this was related to the empire’s safety.

  “A bet? What does Your Majesty wish to bet on?” asked Tang Wulin while maintaining his composure.

  Dai Tianling replied, “I believe that the Tang Sect Master is aware of the harshness of your terms. Thus, we shall place a bet on this. If we lose, then we shall agree to all of your terms, and not only that, we shall increase the purchasing price by ten percent. If you lose, then you shall abolish the restrictions.”


  Tang Wulin frowned deeply. “Your Majesty, this is not the time for childish games.”


  Dai Tianling spoke, “Of course, this is not a game. These are my precious words and all that I say is of the utmost importance.”


  Tang Wulin spoke, somewhat mockingly, “Your Majesty, that’s not what I mean. You should understand what I’m saying.”


  Dai Tianling spoke calmly, “I’m sorry, Tang Sect Master. This is our final decision. How about this? Why don’t you listen to the terms of our bet? Perhaps there’s another method that we can adopt if we choose not to go through with it. I only have one requirement and if you can promise to abide by it then not only will we consent to everything that the Tang Sect has asked for, we will increase the total purchase price by twenty percent as a gift to you, Tang Sect Master.”


  Increase by twenty percent? It did not sound like much but the total value of such a massive amount of fixed soul weapons was astronomical. The number of weapons prepared by Tang Sect to be delivered to the Star Luo Empire was four times more than what they had sent for the Dou Spirit Empire. The increase Dai Tianling was proposing would be enough to arm a mecha troop and still have some left over.

  As soon as Dai Tianling made the offer, even the Smiley Face Douluo Hu Jie had a change of countenance as he became more focused on the discussion.

  Though he had an intimate relationship with the royal family, as the mediator of the Tang Sect in the Star Luo Empire, he had no idea as to what the royal household’s intentions were at this time. He had only learned about the Star Luo Empire’s plan at this very moment. If the price was increased by twenty percent, the money could be converted into resources in the Star Luo Empire and the Dou Spirit Empire which would be immensely helpful for the Tang Sect’s development.

  “What are the terms of Your Majesty’s request?” Tang Wulin looked toward Dai Tianling and his heart felt ill at ease. If this request would increase the total value by twenty percent, one could only imagine how difficult it would be.

  Dai Tianling smiled. Even En Ci, who was sitting by his side, cracked into a smile.

  “The request is not that difficult actually. Moreover, there’s no need for the Tang Sect to pay any price. Most importantly, it’s your personal choice, Tang Sect Master.”


  As he was speaking, he turned his head to the side and looked at Dai Yun’er, who had been standing by his side all along.

  In that split second, a bad premonition surged into Tang Wulin’s mind. In the next moment, Dai Tianling confirmed exactly what he had feared.

  “I only have one precious daughter and I have spoiled her since she was young. Even though she can’t possibly inherit the throne as a woman, almost the entire royal household knows that, in my heart, she is more important than any son of mine. As the royal household’s princess, I have been lenient to the point that she is not restricted by any rules of the royal family and there’s no need for her to be enthroned in a political union by marriage. Everything I did is because she is my beloved daughter. I’m not only an emperor but also a father. As a father, I can only hope that my precious daughter can be happy.”


  “Years ago, both of you were already acquainted with one another when you came to the Star Luo Empire. I don’t know what actually happened between the two of you, but there is something that I can be certain at least. That is that my precious daughter has taken a liking to you. Tang Sect Master, if you are willing to become my son-in-law, then we are considered a family. Nothing would be an issue anymore. Moreover, I don’t need you to become part of the household. It’s fine as long as you make my daughter your lawfully wedded wife. There’s no need for you to even stay in the Star Luo Empire. A good man is ready to realize his aspirations anywhere in the world. The Star Luo Empire shall be the strong supporter at your back.”


  Tang Wulin was feeling a little stunned while Dai Yun’er turned her head to the side as her charming face blushed scarlet.

  She had asked Long Yue and En Ci to put all their efforts into persuading her father to this, to seize this opportunity.

  If Gu Yuena were still by Tang Wulin’s side, perhaps she would not be doing this. However, Gu Yuena was not around while the rest of Tang Wulin’s companions remained. This signified that something might have happened between them.

  Dai Yun’er was well aware that Tang Wulin was truly magnificent, so there would definitely be more than just one or two people that had fallen for him. She would probably never get another chance like this for the rest of her life. She would definitely not give up this opportunity so easily.

  She had always understood her own mind ever since she was young. She knew exactly what her ideal relationship and lover would be. She would certainly find someone she loved, but not someone who loved her.

  The other six Shrek Monsters sitting by Tang Wulin’s side had a change of countenance at once. They had once witnessed Dai Yun’er professing love to Tang Wulin at the Sea God’s Fated Date Festival with their own eyes, yet they had never expected that when they were engaged in such a serious negotiation that could affect the Star Luo Empire’s future, the emperor would actually make such an unbelievable proposal.

  However, one would discover that this trick of his was truly ingenious and unsurpassed upon careful consideration.

  It was not as simple as killing two birds with one stone.

  If Tang Wulin were to marry Dai Yun’er, then it would result in the Tang Sect’s Sect Master and Shrek Academy’s Sea God Pavilion Master marrying the Star Luo Empire’s princess. Tang Wulin’s current status and positions definitely made him a worthy match of Her Highness.

  Once the marriage was finalized, the Star Luo Empire would only need to give a little publicity of this matter to tie Tang Wulin to the Star Luo Empire. Additionally, his identity as the Tang Sect’s Sect Master would naturally strengthen the Star Luo Empire’s relationship with the Tang Sect till it surpassed Dou Spirit Empire’s.

  Even though, on the surface, the Tang Sect had lost much of its influence in the Federation, the Star Luo Empire understood how profound the sect’s inner secrets were. If the Tang Sect was willing to spare no effort in supporting the Star Luo Empire, sharing all the results of their research into soul technology, then the Star Luo Empire could certainly catch up to the Douluo Federation in the future.

  They had considered all of this when they hatched this scheme. At the same time, all of this showed what their ulterior motives were that made winning Tang Wulin over so vital.

  They could take a step back and say that even if Tang Wulin was relieved off his position as the Tang Sect’s Sect Master by the sect’s high-ranking officials after consenting to the marriage, he was still a powerhouse with the potential of becoming Limit Douluo. Dai Tianling’s daughter married a Limit Douluo, bringing him into the empire. This alone would still be quite a feat!

  Thus, Tang Wulin’s marrying Dai Yun’er would certainly be a great boon for the Star Luo Empire from any angle.

  What’s more, Dai Yun’er already had feelings for Tang Wulin. Dai Tianling’s daughter would be delighted if this matter succeeded. This single stroke could achieved so much, Dai Tianling felt very satisfied with himself the moment he proposed it.
