Volume 45, Chapter 614.2: You Dare! (1/2)

The commanders, especially the legion commanders from the different soul engineer legions, had originally wanted to question Ju Zi’s orders. After all, the soul engineer legions had lost many soul engineers in yesterday’s battle.

However, after seeing how Elder Kong had nodded in agreement with her proposal, no one dared to raise any objections.

Because the War God Empress had the support of Elder Kong, no one dared to challenge Ju Zi’s decision. It was also precisely because of Kong Deming that Ju Zi was able to rule the entire Sun Moon Empire comfortably.

“Spread the War God Empress’ orders! The great Sun Moon Empire has decided to show mercy on the innocent lives within the Star Luo Empire. As long as the Star Luo Empire surrenders the White Tiger Duke, Dai Hao, the Sun Moon Empire will allow the Star Luo Empire to surrender. If the Star Luo Empire dares to show any form of resistance, we will massacre every single person within the city!”

The orders were projected by a sound amplifying soul tool in the direction of Star Luo City. Very quickly, the entire city learned what the Sun Moon Empire had proposed.

Xu Jiawei, who was standing above the city walls, lowered his head and remained silent. He clenched his fists before speaking softly, “Brother Dai, I will definitely accompany you when I join you in hell.”

At this very instant, there were no longer any other options. He knew that even he would not be able to stop Dai Hao from saving the millions of lives within Star Luo City. This was a fact of life that everyone understood.

A heavy silence fell upon the people above Star Luo City’s walls.

All the commanders suddenly dropped to their knees. Very soon, the soldiers and then the civilians followed suit. Everyone from above the city walls and within the city were all kneeling at that instant.

The White Tiger Duke slowly turned around as he revealed a faint smile on his rugged face. He exclaimed with his deep voice, “I, Dai Hao, have spent my life on the battlefield fighting loyally for our empire. Today, there’s no reason why I wouldn’t give my life for the millions of lives of our Star Luo Empire. Take care, everyone! I, Dai Hao, shall take my leave!”

After finishing his sentence, he turned around and leaped into the air.

At this instant, a figure suddenly pounced onto him and hugged him tightly around his waist. “No, Father! You can’t go!”

The person who had pounced onto him was his personal guard, who was also none other than his youngest son—Dai Luoli.

Because of his bravery and a multitude of military achievements, Dai Luoli had already become a commander. He commanded the personal guards who protected the White Tiger Duke. Right now, tears were already streaming down his face as he tried to keep his father from leaving.

Dai Hao sighed gently and stroked his head. “My dumb son, there’s no need for you to stop me. Let’s not make our family look bad. Yaoheng, pull him away.”

Yaoheng immediately strode over as he dragged Dai Luoli away from his father. Dai Huabin had also come over to help Yaoheng control his brother.

“Let go of me! Let go of me! Do you all really want to see Father die just like this?” Dai Luoli’s eyes were now red as he tried his best to break free from his brothers. However, his cultivation was not as high as that of his brothers. No matter how hard he struggled, Dai Luoli simply could not free himself.

Dai Yaoheng suddenly slapped Dai Luoli. His eyes were also equally red. “Dumbass, do you think I want Father to die? Huabin, take care of him. Both of you will have to make sure our Dai family doesn’t die out. We must never forget what the Sun Moon Empire has done to us.”

Following which, he suddenly turned around to face Dai Hao and said, “Father, I am the eldest son in our family. Please allow me to join you to demonstrate the loyalty we have for our empire.”

As he spoke, he suddenly moved his palms and planted them on Dai Huabin’s and Dai Luoli’s necks. Because of this, both his brothers fell unconscious, and collapsed to the ground.

Following which, Dai Yaoheng turned around and bowed to Elder Xuan. Without saying anything, he strode towards Dai Hao.

His bow was simply a gesture to thank Elder Xuan in advance for taking care of his family, since he would not be returning to Star Luo City with his father.

Dai Hao stared at his son and spoke, “You are truly a man from our Dai family. You are a good child!” Following which, he raised his hand and brought Dai Yaoheng into his embrace. It was clear that he was very proud of his son.

However, his hand suddenly moved towards Dai Yaoheng’s neck. Similarly, Dai Yaoheng froze before he fell unconscious. He would never have expected his father to use the same method on him.

Dai Hao turned around to face Elder Xuan and pleaded, “Elder Xuan, I will need you to take care of my sons for me.”

Elder Xuan sighed and replied, “White Tiger Duke, you can rest assured that as long as Shrek City is still around, I will not let anyone hurt them.”

“Alright!” After hearing Elder Xuan’s promise, the White Tiger Duke seemed to have no more worries. He leaped upwards and released a deafening howl. “The White Tiger Duke is here. Come and take my life if you dare! Hahahahaha!”

He suddenly ripped apart the armor and shirt he was wearing to reveal his muscular physique. His body seemed to possess a perfect balance between strength and aesthetics. His powerful aura infected all of Star Luo City.
