Chapter 44 The Emperor's Expedition
"Yu Tianzhen, it seems you still haven't grasped the situation."
Dugu Bo suddenly sighed, looked at Yu Tianzhen who was covered in blood, and said. There was still a hint of pity in his dark green eyes.
"Old poisoner, what are you trying to say?"
Yu Tianzhen looked at Dugu Bo, frowned, and asked.
"Sigh. What I mean is, you've already made a grave mistake, there's no going back, yet you're completely oblivious! Breaking into the palace at night and attacking the prince's residence—what kind of incident is this? What is its nature? This is treason! This is rebellion! This is treason that will destroy your entire family!"
Dugu Bo looked at Yu Tianzhen and spoke slowly and deliberately. Yu Tianzhen felt a slight tremor in his heart, clenched his fists, and cold sweat dripped down his back.
If someone had said such things to him before, he would have simply scoffed. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect, nominally a sect of the Heaven Dou Empire, actually considered itself one of the true masters of the Heaven Dou Empire. What royal family? They were merely a group of major sects, placed on the table as representatives to rule the common people. What did the Heaven Dou Empire dare to do? Did the Heaven Dou Empire have any right to interfere?
However, now, with Zhongli's terrifying strength, at least, almost no sect can threaten the safety of the royal family. Their greatest confidence used to be that no matter how much the Heavenly Dou Royal Family possessed—vast empires and millions of troops—what could they do? Killing them, changing the dynasty—was as easy as taking candy from a baby.
No matter how powerful your Xue family is, you are essentially just a bunch of weaklings.
But now, everything is different. This Fifth Prince, Xue Li, is simply a monster; who can kill him? Now, the major sects should be praying that he doesn't raise his killing spear.
What's more, he's only thirteen! A mere boy, yet he's already this strong. If we wait until Xue Li grows up further, if we wait until he's twenty or thirty...
On the entire continent, who else could stop him? Who else would dare to defy his will?
In a daze, he seemed to see the army of the Heaven Dou Empire surrounding one after another the once high and mighty Soul Master sects, with countless rock spears obscuring the sky.
Could it be that this era truly belongs to Xue Li? This young man is destined to rule the world; while they, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan, stand in opposition to this man.
"Gentlemen, please set off on your journey in peace. I will also pay a visit to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan."
Zhong Li said calmly. Before Yu Tianzhen could say anything more, a large number of gun shadows had already enveloped them.
"Pfft pfft pfft"
The last few corpses fell. The entire prince's residence finally fell silent once more. Dugu Bo looked at Zhongli, who stood quietly in place, his magnificent black suit not even stained with a single drop of blood.
"Your Highness, are you really going to attack the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex?"
Dugu Bo looked at Zhong Li and asked probingly.
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan is, after all, one of the three upper clans, with deep roots and immense power. Even if the Spirit Hall were to take action against the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan, it would be a momentous event.
If things go wrong, it could lead to catastrophe and widespread destruction. Although the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan has suffered a devastating blow, it still possesses many powerful Soul Masters. In particular, the strongest member of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan, the current Blue Lightning Douluo Yu Yuanzhen, is a level 95 Title Douluo who still resides within the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan.
Moreover, with the financial and material resources accumulated over the years, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan is more than capable of confronting the Empire. There is a duchy that was originally a province of the Empire, but later one of the four lower clans supported a local nobleman who rebelled against the Empire. He defeated the Empire's army several times, and in the end, the Empire had no choice but to recognize its independent status.
If it were the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan, the destruction and chaos they could cause would be far greater than what they did back then. Furthermore, if they were to collude with the Star Luo Empire, the situation would become even more dire.
"It's not that I want to lay a hand on them. It's just that they've already rebelled. Sometimes, if you strike once, you can withstand a hundred blows."
Zhong Li shook his head and said calmly.
Dugu Bo's heart skipped a beat. The next moment, his gaze also became intense.
Well done, what spirit! A truly bold move! One punch unleashed, a hundred punches in return! As for myself, I'm getting old, too hesitant and indecisive, unlike the young master who sees things clearly.
If this battle were to be a fatal blow to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan, sealing their fate, then from this day forward, the Empire's prestige would be unparalleled. After this battle, the Heavenly Dou Empire would truly belong to the Heavenly Dou family! This vast land would then truly be the Empire's magnificent land!
"We'll set off in seven days. Our target is Blue Tyrant Peak. Everything must be settled before the competition begins."
--------------------------------
Looking at the tall, blue-purple plaque before him, a hint of emotion flashed in Dugu Bo's eyes. Five domineering characters were written on the plaque: "Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex," accompanied by the clan emblem of a Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, its mouth open in a roar, exuding an aura of dominance.
This badge, appearing anywhere on the continent, in any corner, inspires respect, even fear. And this magnificent gate before us is something countless people on the continent yearn to visit, yet are utterly unworthy to even enter.
"Sizzle!"
A blade of light, crackling with lightning, swept across the scene. The next moment, the imposing gate split open and collapsed with a deafening roar.
"Who goes there!"
"How dare you!"
Several fierce bolts of lightning suddenly roared from behind, accompanied by several shocked and furious roars.
"Thump"
Several incredibly powerful bolts of lightning struck the shield formed by the pale golden light, instantly turning into wisps of electricity and dissipating.
"The Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan, defying the Empire and utterly depraved, invaded the Imperial Palace and raided the Prince's residence with a large number of Soul Masters, intending to overthrow the country and harm the royal family. Their crimes are unforgivable!"
Dugu Bo unleashed his formidable soul power and proclaimed in a loud voice. In an instant, under the soul power of a Title Douluo, his chilling voice resounded throughout the entire mountain peak and the entire Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan.
"Well, how dare you! I didn't come looking for you, but you've come to my door."
Deep within the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect, an elderly man with white hair and beard suddenly burst out of a quiet room, his eyes wide with rage, and crackling electric currents coiling around his body. Under the terrifying pressure he unleashed in an instant, some of the younger disciples around him uncontrollably knelt on the ground, cold sweat pouring down their foreheads.
"Lord Sect Master!"
"Hmph. If I hadn't come out of seclusion, you'd all be getting attacked! I'd like to see just what kind of abilities this Heavenly Dou Empire has that they actually dare to invade my Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex territory!"
The old man laughed angrily, looking towards the sect's gate in the distance. With each step he took, a new soul ring appeared around his body, and his body swelled up.
After taking nine steps, the old man transformed into a giant dragon over twenty meters long, flapping his wings and soaring into the sky. His blue-purple eyes were filled with only awe and rage as he looked down at the battle below.
At this very moment, royal knights clad in silver armor and elite soul masters of the Heaven Dou royal family in white and gold-embroidered robes were already engaged in fierce combat with the disciples of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. However, many of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan disciples were struck by swarms of crossbow bolts and sharp weapons before they could even get close, letting out screams of agony as blood splattered on the spot.
"So this is a mechanical weapon? Hmph."
Looking at the scene before him, the old man's gaze grew increasingly somber.
