Hearing Qian Daoliu’s questioning tone, Emperor Xu Jiawei was stunned.
The corners of Dai Hao’s mouth also twitched involuntarily.
Even the people hiding in the shadows couldn’t help but walk out, scolding Qian Daoliu: “You fellow, it’s one thing to never address Your Majesty from the beginning, but what is the meaning of this now?”
Qian Daoliu glanced sideways.
He saw two people walk out from the corner.
A man and a woman, both looking quite old.
One was an old man of about sixty, with a resolute face and eyes as sharp as an eagle’s.
He wore a dark blue martial outfit, and faint purple spatial fluctuations lingered around his body.
The other was an old woman with white hair and a wrinkled face, wearing a plain white robe and a white headscarf.
Qian Daoliu paid special attention to the old woman.
Because he sensed a familiar Angel Martial Soul aura from her.
Qian Daoliu said indifferently: “What is the meaning?
Naturally, it means exactly what it says.”
“In this vast Star Luo City, there are countless hidden Evil Soul Masters.”
“As the ruler of a nation, is it considered wise to allow Evil Soul Masters to run rampant like this?”
Emperor Xu Jiawei’s fingers curled slightly.
He felt as if he were being pointed at and called incompetent.
But he was an emperor, after all.
He was used to hiding his emotions, so he suppressed his anger and asked: “Brother Qian, why do you say that?”
“Although I may not be the best emperor in history, I have always strictly controlled Evil Soul Masters.”
“You say there are countless hidden Evil Soul Masters in Star Luo City, but do you have proof?”
“If you are fabricating lies to frame me, even if you are a Titled Douluo, you will not be able to leave the palace today.”
Qian Daoliu’s expression remained calm.
He glanced at the old man and the old woman again.
He did not believe these two level-95 Titled Douluo could pose any threat to him.
“Proof, this old man truly cannot provide any at this moment.”
Emperor Xu Jiawei’s eyes flashed with anger upon hearing this.
He thought Qian Daoliu was mocking him.
An emperor’s dignity cannot be offended.
He was already prepared to take action.
Although Dai Hao had mentioned earlier that Qian Daoliu was confirmed to be a Titled Douluo, his exact level was unknown.
But in his view, he couldn’t be that strong.
He had two level-95 Titled Douluo by his side.
Plus other retainers, how could they not take down this person?
Soon, Qian Daoliu’s voice sounded again.
“However, this old man can lock onto the locations of those Evil Soul Masters.”
“Whether it is true or false, why not come with me and take a look.”
“But remember to act quickly; do not give the other Evil Soul Masters a chance to react.”
Emperor Xu Jiawei narrowed his eyes.
He strongly suspected that Qian Daoliu was stalling for time, but he couldn’t find any evidence.
He snorted coldly.
“Very well, I will accompany you.”
Subsequently, Qian Daoliu unfolded his six wings and flew out of the side hall first.
His golden wings bloomed with Holy Light, and he transformed into a streak of light.
In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from the hall.
Seeing this scene, Emperor Xu Jiawei, Dai Hao, the old man, and the old woman all flashed with surprise.
The same question popped into their minds.
What kind of Spirit is this?
Especially the old woman.
She felt her Healing Angel Martial Soul being suppressed at this moment.
And it was a suppression from the root.
At this moment, the old woman had a faint guess in her heart.
Emperor Xu Jiawei reacted: “Follow him.” After saying that, he immediately flew out of the side hall.
Dai Hao, the old man, and the old woman followed closely behind.
In the following time, Qian Daoliu, based on the locations of the Evil Soul Masters he had previously determined, led the four of them to find several hideouts hidden on the outskirts and further away.
These hideouts were very scattered.
Some were hidden in abandoned civilian houses, some were hidden deep in cellars, and some were even disguised as ordinary shops.
However, Qian Daoliu never made a move.
The old man and the old woman solved all the Evil Soul Masters.
The two cooperated tacitly, and their strikes were clean and neat.
They didn’t give those Evil Soul Masters any chance to react.
And after doing all this, Emperor Xu Jiawei finally believed it.
His expression became incomparably grave.
“Very well, these Evil Soul Masters actually dared to operate under my nose.”
“And no one noticed it the entire time.”
“Is it the incompetence of certain people, or was it done deliberately?”
Emperor Xu Jiawei clenched his fists, gritting his teeth, with some bad guesses emerging.
His eyes were full of killing intent.
He took a deep breath, looked at Qian Daoliu, and then solemnly cupped his hands and bowed.
“Brother Qian, I was wrong just now; I shouldn’t have doubted you.” Emperor Xu Jiawei’s words were a true expression of his feelings.
He even changed his self-reference to ‘I’.
The old man also cupped his hands to apologize at this time.
“This old man’s title is Star-Shattering, Star-Shattering Douluo.” Then he introduced the old woman.
“This one’s title is Medicine Immortal, Medical Immortal Douluo.”
“Previously, thank you for the reminder, Brother Qian.
Otherwise, I’m afraid if we had waited for these Evil Soul Masters to develop for a while longer, Star Luo City would definitely have suffered heavy casualties, and it might have even shaken the Foundation.”
Qian Daoliu waved his hand: “Don’t stand on ceremony.”
“There is more than one Evil Soul Master hideout.
While they haven’t reacted yet, we must solve them all as soon as possible.”
“Otherwise, it will certainly harm innocent people.”
Emperor Xu Jiawei nodded repeatedly.
“Right, right, right.”
But soon he realized one thing.
He frowned and asked: “Brother Qian, Star Luo City covers an area of over ten thousand square kilometers.
How can we quickly find the hideouts of the Evil Soul Masters?”
Qian Daoliu said: “Give this old man a detailed map of Star Luo City.”
Emperor Xu Jiawei didn’t understand why.
But he still took out a map from his spirit tool and handed it to Qian Daoliu.
Qian Daoliu took the map and unfolded it.
Then, while sensing the locations of the Evil Soul Masters in the city, he pointed them out on the map.
Every time his fingertip fell, it left a golden light spot on the map.
He pointed out over a hundred locations in a row.
“These are the specific locations.”
“Later, you should find more people to lie in ambush nearby, then act at the same time.
Don’t let any Evil Soul Master escape.”
Seeing this, Emperor Xu Jiawei was stunned on the spot.
Dai Hao was also stunned.
Star-Shattering Douluo and Medical Immortal Douluo were both dumbfounded at this moment.
In the ten thousand square kilometer Star Luo City, Qian Daoliu was actually able to accurately provide the locations.
This meant that Qian Daoliu’s mental force covered the entire Star Luo City.
They had never heard of such mental force strength.
For the first time, they intuitively realized Qian Daoliu’s strength.
Possessing such mental force, his cultivation level must not be low.
He is one hundred percent a Limit Douluo!
But that’s not right either.
They could be sure they had never seen Qian Daoliu before, nor had they even heard of him.
Where did this Limit Douluo pop out from?
Emperor Xu Jiawei knew the priorities.
He knew now was not the time to investigate Qian Daoliu’s identity.
So he hurriedly said: “Senior Star-Shattering, Senior Medicine Immortal, please quickly go and gather experts above the level of Spirit Emperor.”
“Today, we must eradicate the Evil Soul Masters in the city!”
Star-Shattering Douluo and Medical Immortal Douluo came back to their senses.
They took a deep look at Qian Daoliu.
They nodded in unison.
“Understood.” Then they disappeared from the spot.
Emperor Xu Jiawei also spoke to take his leave.
“Brother Qian, leave the following matters to me.”
“Take this.”
He took out a golden token and handed it to Qian Daoliu.
The token was the size of a palm, made entirely of refined gold, with the character ‘Xu’ engraved on the front and the royal emblem of the Star Luo Empire on the back.
“Seeing this token is like seeing me in person.”
“With this token, Brother Qian, not only can you enter the Library at any time, but you will also possess Duke-level authority throughout the Star Luo Empire.”
