Xingluo Empire!!
When Dai Yueyan arrived outside the palace where Dai Yun'er was held, several soldiers in charge of guarding the place bowed their heads and respectfully said, "His Majesty the Emperor!"
The former gave a slight nod and asked, "Where is Yun'er??"
One of the soldiers responded truthfully, "Her Royal Highness the Princess is currently inside the palace and has not left voluntarily during this time!!"
Dai Yueyan expressed understanding and then waved his hand, "Mm! You all may withdraw!"
He did not want anyone else around while he talked with his sister!
The group naturally did not dare to defy orders, "Yes, Your Majesty!!"
With that said, they swiftly left...
At this moment, Dai Yueyan lightly knocked on the door, "Yun'er?"
It didn't take long before Dai Yun'er's calm voice came through, "Is it brother? Come in!"
Upon entering after opening the door, the first sight was Dai Yun'er sitting in front of her dressing table, showing no emotion at all...
Dai Yueyan swallowed and was the first to speak, "Yun'er, it seems you have calmed down!"
Upon hearing this, Dai Yun'er turned her beautiful eyes toward him and said word by word, "I was calm from the very beginning!"
Dai Yueyan chuckled slightly and pursued, "Yun'er, are you angry with me?"
Unexpectedly, the former replied with a somewhat sarcastic tone, "How would I dare, you are the emperor of Xingluo Empire, who can imprison or even execute people as you please!"
Noticing the confrontational intent in her words, Dai Yueyan did not get angry, "It is indeed my mistake to have you imprisoned here, Yun'er!"
"So please..."
Before he finished speaking, Dai Yun'er interrupted, "Enough, if you've come just to explain this, there's no need!"
Dai Yueyan clenched his fists and spoke again, "Although that is one aspect, the main reason I came this time is to discuss your previous suggestion."
Indeed, thinking about his sister leaving, and possibly not seeing her again in the future, still made him reluctant...
Dai Yun'er's beautiful eyes flickered, seemingly moved...
It was as if she was saying the three words, "Go on."
Dai Yueyan sighed, "Simply put, I agree to let you leave the Star Luo Empire Palace!!"
Upon hearing this, Dai Yun'er immediately showed a look of joy, "Brother, is what you say true??"
Seeing the former's appearance, Dai Yueyan only felt his heart ache...
Yun'er, leaving the Star Luo Empire Palace brings you such happiness?
Perhaps the State Preceptor was right, my so-called protection of her is nothing but self-deception!
However, he still replied solemnly, "It's true! You can leave the Star Luo Empire at any time now, no one will stop you!"
"You can even sever all ties with me as your brother!"
Dai Yun'er was stunned, her gaze a bit dazed, "Brother..."
She left the Tiandou Empire Palace entirely because she lost interest in her royal identity and just wanted to live the rest of her life simply...
However, she never really wanted to completely sever ties with the former!
Blood is thicker than water; such bonds cannot be erased with mere words!
Seeing the struggle within the former's sea of consciousness, Dai Yueyan chose to take a step back, gently explaining, "Yun'er, don't worry about me. Go freely and pursue what you want to do!"
"Of course, if you ever feel tired, come back for a visit. The position of Her Royal Highness the Princess of Xingluo Empire will always be yours!"
At that moment, Dai Yun'er's heart trembled...
Tears began to stream down uncontrollably, "Brother, I'm not leaving! I'm not leaving!"
Being forcibly made to stay in the Star Luo Empire Palace under the guise of "protection" by Dai Yueyan, she felt imprisoned...
However, until the former was genuinely willing to let go and agreed for her to leave...
It felt as if she had lost everything, becoming utterly alone...
Dai Yueyan pursed his lips, reaching out to touch her cheek, closing his eyes and suppressing the pain, "Yun'er, I know you're confused right now, but my initial intention was still for you to be happy!"
"Staying within the Star Luo Empire Palace, you'll never find true happiness, go, pursue the life you want!"
...
Xie Xie saw Tang Wulin standing dumbfounded and reminded, "Wulin, don't just stand there, quickly check on Uncle to see if he's okay!"
This sentence immediately brought the latter back to his senses, quickly rushing to Tang Ziran's side and removing the cloth from his mouth...
"Father, you..."
But the latter interrupted him without hesitation, anxiously saying, "Wulin, quickly, order the passengers on the Soul Guidance Train to evacuate immediately; the Holy Spirit Cult has planted tons of soul cannonballs here!"
"Once detonated, everything within a kilometer radius will be razed to the ground!"
This sentence shocked the members of the Shrek Seven Monsters, "What??"
They chose to trust Tang Ziran's words because when the Holy Spirit Cult's evil Soul Master intercepted the Soul Guidance Train, it was through explosions!
Yue Zhengyu slammed a fist onto the wall, cursing, "Damn it! These insane evil Soul Masters never intended for the passengers on the Soul Guidance Train to survive from the beginning!"
Ye Xinglan forced herself to stay calm, "We must immediately evacuate the passengers on the Soul Guidance Train, otherwise... everyone will die here!"
Xie Xie squinted his eyes, "I'll go inform the other passengers, you guys start evacuating right away!"
Given his speed, escaping beyond a kilometer in a short time was not a problem!!
Yuanen Yehui disagreed, "No, relying solely on you is not enough!"
Xie Xie gave her a thumbs-up, "Yehui, trust me, with my speed, it will be enough!"
Although the situation was critical, hearing words of concern from Yuanen Yehui still warmed his heart...
After speaking, Xie Xie rushed out of the compartment without waiting for the others to respond...
Xu Xiaoyan took a deep breath and reassured, "Yehui, don't worry; if Xie Xie says so, he must be confident. Let's evacuate the Soul Guidance Train first!"
Xu Lizhi nodded in agreement, "Mm, if we're any later, we might not make it!"
Tang Wulin nodded slightly, then crouched down, "Dad, please get on my back, I'll take you out of here!"
Tang Ziran, however, weakly uttered, "Cough, cough... Wulin, there's no need. Ever since the Holy Spirit Cult's evil Soul Masters captured me, they fed me poison, which I fear now has penetrated deep into my bones..."
After saying that, purplish-black blood oozed from the corner of his mouth...
Seeing this, Tang Wulin, with eyes reddened, reached out and grasped his father's shoulders firmly, "No, Dad, you'll be okay, Lizhi, quickly, Recovery Meat Bun!"
Tang Ziran was his last relative on the Douluo Continent and could not be allowed to have an accident!
Xu Lizhi quickly nodded, releasing his soul skill to create a Recovery Big Meat Bun and letting Tang Ziran consume it...
However, the latter's face remained pale, his skin rapidly decaying, and in the blink of an eye, it began emitting a putrid odor...
