Worwick wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, please calm down, it's a misunderstanding! All of this is a misunderstanding! Elder Ju didn't mean to."

Dai Pojun didn't speak but looked at Davis to the side. Davis instantly understood that it was his turn to step forward.

"Heh heh heh, Your Excellency Bishop, what you say is simply laughable. You killed so many people from my Star Luo Empire, and you think a single word of 'misunderstanding' will make this matter pass? I'm afraid it's not that easy.

If everyone were as thick-skinned as Your Excellency Bishop, then tomorrow I would go to Spirit Hall City and kill hundreds of your soul masters, and I would also say that it was all a misunderstanding.

Would Your Excellency Bishop agree to that? If Your Excellency Bishop agrees, we will release Title Douluo Ju right now, and then deploy troops to the border for a good 'misunderstanding'."

"This..."

Worwick was in a difficult position. If it really escalated into a war between Spirit Hall and the Star Luo Empire, no matter the outcome, he wouldn't have a good end.

If the Star Luo Empire won, Dai Pojun already disliked him and would definitely chop him down with a single strike; and if Spirit Hall won, then with Bibi Dong's personality, he would also be made a scapegoat and executed.

Once the war started, no matter the result, he would only face death.

Before he could speak, Davis continued, "Moreover, under our interrogation last night, Title Douluo Ju has already confessed everything!"

"Ah? All, all confessed?"

Worwick couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard this, anxiously thinking: Could it be that Elder Ju has already revealed the assassination of Yang Wudi? No, this Elder Ju is too unreliable, isn't he?

"That's right! Ju and Gui Douluo came to my Star Luo City to drink and drown their sorrows, which was originally a good thing, and my Star Luo Empire welcomed them.

Who would have thought that the two of them would go crazy after getting drunk, killing so many Star Luo warriors, and even daring to fight my imperial father in public? This is truly unbearable! If the uncle can endure it, the aunt cannot!

Title Douluo Ju's actions have already touched the bottom line of the Star Luo Empire. If he isn't beheaded and displayed to the public, it will be difficult to appease the public anger!"

"Ah? Drunk and causing trouble? What's going on..."

Worwick was taken aback for a moment, but having lived for more than sixty years, he was also an old fox, and he quickly understood the key.

Elder Ju must have deliberately said that he was drunk in order to conceal his true purpose. After all, with a Title Douluo's soul power, he could completely dispel the alcohol if he wanted to.

At this moment, Bishop Warwick couldn't help but admire Yue Guan's wit, actually thinking of using this method to conceal his true purpose.

Although this was just a clumsy lie, as long as Dai Pojun and the others couldn't figure out their true intentions, there would still be room for maneuver.

Seeing Bishop Warwick's confused expression, Davis sneered in his heart, and then changed the subject, coldly saying, "Oh? What? Could it be that what I said isn't the truth? Or is it that Your Excellency Bishop knows some hidden secrets?

Could it be that Ju and Gui Douluo didn't act rashly after getting drunk, but did it on purpose, to assassinate the ministers of the Star Luo Empire and even assassinate the Star Luo Emperor?"

Swish!

When the civil and military officials heard this, they all turned their gazes to Bishop Warwick. If Ju and Gui Douluo were just making trouble while drunk, then there would still be room for redemption.

But if it was assassinating ministers and assassinating the emperor, this crime would be too great. Ju Douluo would definitely die, and the Star Luo Empire would definitely seek an explanation from Spirit Hall!

"Hmph, if that's the case, Ju and Gui Douluo should be exterminated! Your Excellency Bishop, I hope you will go back and inform Her Majesty the Pope that Ju and Gui Douluo intended to assassinate the Emperor, and according to the law, their nine generations should be exterminated. I hope she will send their nine generations to Star Luo City.

Speaking of Her Majesty the Pope, she is the direct superior of Ju and Gui Douluo. Could it be that the one who ordered them to assassinate my imperial father was the Pope..."

"No no no! Absolutely not! Absolutely not! It was really Elder Ju and Elder Gui acting rashly while drunk! Acting rashly while drunk!"

Before Davis could finish speaking, Bishop Warwick hurriedly admitted that it was Ju and Gui Douluo acting rashly while drunk. If he were allowed to continue speaking, it would inevitably escalate into war, which was something no one wanted to see.

"After this humble subject returns, I will definitely ask Her Majesty the Pope to criticize the two of them more to prevent similar incidents from happening again. It's just that Elder Ju is, after all, an elder of my Spirit Hall, and also Elder Gui's brother and partner, and also a favorite of Her Majesty the Pope.

If he dies, the higher-ups of Spirit Hall will definitely be furious, and it is very likely that it will escalate into a war between Spirit Hall and the Star Luo Empire. The Upper Three Sects and the Heaven Dou Empire are eyeing us covetously. If a war breaks out at this time, it will not be beneficial to any of us.

For the fallen Star Luo warriors, Spirit Hall is willing to offer compensation. I hope His Majesty the Emperor and His Highness the Crown Prince will be merciful and spare Elder Ju's life."

Hearing this, Davis couldn't help but nod lightly. His goal had been achieved. Ever since he learned that Yue Guan could help him cultivate, he had no intention of killing Yue Guan. Wouldn't it be good to keep him as his charging treasure?

"Your Excellency Bishop, what you just said is quite sincere. Indeed, war is not what we want to see. Since you are willing to represent Spirit Hall to offer compensation, then let me state my conditions."

Seeing that there was still room for negotiation, Warwick hurriedly said, "Your Highness, please speak."

Although Spirit Hall had a deep foundation, it didn't have many ten-thousand-year soul bones. Didn't you see that Yue Guan, as an elder, didn't even have a single soul bone?

"What? Does Your Excellency Bishop feel troubled?" Davis smiled and said, "Alright then, let's make it four ten-thousand-year soul bones and forty million gold soul coins then!"

"Your Highness! You..."

Before he could finish speaking, Davis waved his hand to stop him.

"Your Excellency Bishop, if you say another word of nonsense, I will continue to increase the price. I am different from others. Other people's bottom lines are lowered again and again, but I am not the same.

The more you refute me, the more my bottom line will increase. I hope you can reorganize your words!"

"This... This is such a big matter that this humble subject cannot make the decision alone. How about this, please give me some time to discuss it with the Pope, and then we can talk about it, how about that?"

"No problem!" Davis agreed, and then said again, "But I will only give you one month. If I don't see the soul bones and gold soul coins after one month, I will definitely let the people of the world witness Ju Douluo being executed!"

In one month, Dai Pojun estimated that he could break through level ninety, and at the same time, Dai Tianxing would also have a chance to break through level ninety-two.

"Yes, yes! This humble subject understands!"

After saying that, Bishop Warwick left the palace in a dispirited manner, and then went non-stop to Spirit Hall City to convey Davis's meaning to Bibi Dong.
