Douluo: Soul Devouring Spider King

Chapter 98: Set off to Wuhun City! Proposal!

"What you said makes sense, but if your Royal Highness is staying in the palace all night, how can you make excuses?"

"This... even if we stay here, it doesn't mean anything..."

"That's right! It's just a temporary stay, nothing happened! My princess is still pure and innocent!"

"What if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sneaks into Her Royal Highness the Princess's bedroom in the middle of the night?"

"Ah this... Spreading rumors about the prince is no small matter!"

"Spreading rumors? This matter was spread from within the Crown Prince's Palace, and not just from one person! Many servants saw and heard it!"

"Heard?"

"What do you think? Not only did they sleep together for a whole night, but the princess's enchanting voice rang out for most of the night!"

"It is said that when His Royal Highness gets up early, he can't even walk steadily!"

"After all, it's the first time I've tasted the forbidden fruit, so it's normal to not know how to control myself!"

"Shut up! It's all fake! My princess must still be Bingqing..."

Some people expressed that they found it hard to accept, especially the guy with sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes. His flaming eyes stared at the rumormonger, but the guy just sneered at this.

"Pure as ice and jade? Unfortunately, she was no longer like that last night. In the morning, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince not only walked out of the house in dishevel, but also held a bloodstained bed sheet in his hands!"

"Don't ask me how I know this. My aunt is in charge of doing laundry for everyone in the Crown Prince's Palace. She personally took over the laundry from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince this morning. Hum~"

“This… this… is impossible…” Seeing the rumor monger’s serious look, the sword-like brows and star-like eyes began to be moved. Was the heroine really taken away by someone else?

Prince Tiandou? Damn it!

"Don't resist. I actually think there's nothing wrong with Your Highness being the Crown Princess!"

"Yeah, ever since I saw the photo of the two of you together, I knew this was destined to happen."

"Those who hold opposing views, you are not dreaming of having Her Royal Highness become your mistress, right?"

"Shh~ Stop talking. Don't you see that the murderous intent in the eyes of those pretentious males is becoming more and more frightening?"

However, the spread of the news would not stop because of the anger of the sword-like eyebrows and star-eyed people, but instead intensified. The vast majority of people in Tiandou Imperial Capital and the surrounding towns had already believed that the princess was going to be the Crown Princess. Only a very few were still fighting back, but they were soon driven to despair by an event that shocked the imperial capital!

Prince's Palace!

Xue Xing, who was already prepared, led a large team of 300 people including many followers, guards, and powerful soul masters. With the sound of gongs and drums and trumpets, they headed towards the city gate with many fully loaded carriages.

This very lively team immediately attracted everyone's attention. They wanted to quietly inquire about it, but Xue Xing carried out the emperor's will very well and took the initiative to reveal the purpose of the team's travel and the team's mission. When everyone knew it, they were dumbfounded on the spot:

bride price!?

The Tiandou Empire is going to Wuhun City to propose marriage, hoping to have two children! ?

"This……"

"So Tiandou is going to form an alliance with Spirit Hall???"

"Has it been officially confirmed? It's not just a rumor?"

"Hahaha~! It should have been done long ago!"

"How joyful! How joyful!"

After a brief moment of shock, the people of Tiandou Imperial Capital and its surrounding areas were completely shocked!

Everyone rushed to tell each other this earth-shattering good news!

The major aristocratic forces, such as the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, immediately convened emergency meetings of their clan leaders to analyze the pros and cons of Emperor Tiandou's actions.

The middle-sized nobles were stunned. Is the old Emperor Xue Ye so decisive?

And this is too sudden! It was fine two days ago, everything was calm, and now in the blink of an eye... No... Isn't this pace too fast?

It’s so fast that there’s not even any time for everyone to react!

After hastily coming to their senses, the medium-sized nobles also began to urgently summon their clansmen, or go door to door, and those closely-related families directly contacted the heads of the families to get together to discuss future matters and how to gain benefits from this great event.

Instead, the small nobles (families) and commoners were watching the fun, especially those Tiandou students who had joined the Royal Knights and obtained the Princess Order, who were even more proud and raised their chins 90 degrees wherever they went.

Those small nobles who missed the opportunity could no longer sit still, and tried to find Xue Avalanche of the Princess Knights to discuss joining the organization. However, they learned that Xue Avalanche was under house arrest. They had no choice but to turn to the small families who had already married into the Spirit Hall, and told them that everything could be discussed. These small families also used the name of the Spirit Hall princess to collect various benefits, and some even took the opportunity to expand their own power and transformed themselves into medium-sized nobles!

Apart from anything else, this point alone allowed the students of the Royal Knights to enjoy enough benefits, and their favorability towards Xiaodong increased by about 10 points. More than half of them reached above 50, and a few even approached 60 kcal.

In short, the entire Tiandou Imperial Capital was filled with undercurrents, people were in panic, and everyone was singing and dancing throughout the morning!

In addition, after the delegation left Tiandou Imperial City, a piece of news also quietly spread:

"The Pope and the High Priest are at odds, there will be a war between the two!"

Wuhun Temple.

"Did you take all these photos?!"

Salas looked at his subordinate with a gloomy face. If it were in the past, this subordinate would have thought that he was in a good position and accidentally did something bad, and then begged for punishment in fear and trepidation. However!

Ever since he hooked up with Her Royal Highness, this guy stood with his hands behind his back, looking directly at Sarath with neither servility nor arrogance:

"Yes, Bishop, Her Highness gave me an order yesterday, ordering me to follow and protect her secretly after the welcoming ceremony, and to take photos. She also specifically told me to take more photos if Crown Prince Dou shows up that day."

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"This is an order from Her Royal Highness the Princess."

The implication is that Xiaodong ordered this, why should I tell you, an old man? Do you dare to meddle in the affairs of the princess?

It's against you!

"..." Salas' facial muscles twitched violently, and he stared coldly at this ignorant idiot. If it were in the past, he would definitely uphold the principle of decisiveness and kill to get rid of this idiot directly.

But now... in fact, it's not just him. At least half of the subordinates in the Spirit Temple have turned into traitors and defected to Xiaodong!

The reason is simple. After the welcoming event, those minor nobles can join the princess's direct camp, so why can't they, the regular staff of the Spirit Hall who have a legitimate family background, join the camp?

What? Will it anger Sarath?

Fine, fine, fine~ Just lick that old man's stinky feet! Forget about that, I'm going to be Her Royal Highness's dog, so get out of the way.

Sarath stared at the 25-year-old for a few seconds, then waved his hand calmly, "Go down."
