Chapter 60: The Zhu Family's Shock
> "Only one spirit ring is missing?"
Yang Wudi was overjoyed. He hadn't expected Davis to bring such great news right after joining the Star Luo Empire.
Once Dai Tianxing and Zhu Lingyun became Titled Douluo, their strength would increase tremendously. And when the two of them used the Nether White Tiger Fusion Technique...
What kind of terrifying power would it unleash when cast by two Titled Douluo? Perhaps only a Peerless Douluo would dare to face such a fusion technique!
With Dai Tianxing and his wife becoming quasi-Titled Douluo, Yang Wudi saw hope—a chance to one day exact revenge on Spirit Hall.
---
Davis arranged accommodations in Star Luo City for Yang Wudi and planned to purchase an estate the next day so that the Po Yi Clan could relocate and settle there as soon as they arrived.
After saying goodbye to Yang Wudi, Davis returned to his mansion to rest and gave the Black Jade Divine Bamboo to Anna. Once she absorbed it, she would certainly undergo a powerful transformation.
Tomorrow, he would give the remaining two immortal herbs to Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing.
But at that moment, a palace maid found Davis and told him to settle Yang Wudi quickly, then head to the Zhu family mansion.
Davis understood immediately—his father, Dai Pojun, was about to inform Zhu Tianyu that the royal family's succession rules would be abolished.
As the eldest prince and future crown prince, he had to be there for such a monumental event.
---
No longer sleepy, Davis activated his martial spirit and dashed toward the Zhu family mansion. With his current strength, it took him less than five minutes to travel from the palace to the Zhu residence.
Upon arrival, he found that the entire Zhu family was waiting outside in formal attire to welcome His Majesty. Zhu Zhuyun, Zhu Zhuqing, and Anna were among them.
Davis was surprised to see Anna there, clearly cared for by the sisters while he had been away.
Zhu Tianyu and the elders of the Zhu family stood solemnly, whispering amongst themselves.
As soon as Davis appeared, Zhu Zhuyun's eyes lit up and she called out happily:
> "Weis!"
She ran straight into his arms, pressing her head against his solid chest.
Looking at the beauty in his embrace, Davis smiled and gently rubbed her hair:
> "It's been so long, wife. Did you miss your husband?"
> "Ugh! Don't say that! There are people watching!"
Zhu Zhuyun blushed furiously at the word "wife".
Davis had said it loud and clear—everyone around heard it, and Zhu Caiyun was even giggling in the background.
Zhu Zhuyun buried her face in his chest, wishing she could disappear into the ground.
> "Not bad, Zhuyun. Your soul power is already at the peak of level 41."
> "Of course! I haven't been slacking."
She smiled proudly and released her soul power to sense Davis's cultivation.
But to her shock, she found his strength unfathomable.
> "Weis, what level is your soul power now? You feel so... different."
> "Stronger, right?" Davis smiled.
> "Yeah."
> "Haha. I had a fortunate encounter with Senior Dugu, which helped my martial spirit evolve. My soul power has now reached level 56."
> "Level 56?!"
Zhu Zhuyun's exclamation stunned everyone present.
> "Level 56? Brother-in-law, that's incredible!"
> "Brother Weis, you're amazing!"
> "A 20-year-old Soul King with the potential to become a Soul Emperor before 22... Weis, you're truly the greatest genius in Star Luo Empire's history!" exclaimed Zhu Tianyu, deeply shaken.
No one had expected Davis to achieve such heights so quickly.
With this breakthrough, Davis's position as future crown prince was undeniable.
Amidst all the admiration, Davis grinned, took Zhu Zhuyun's soft hand, and said:
> "Wife, no need to be jealous. I've also prepared immortal herbs for you. If you absorb them successfully, you'll definitely break through to level 50."
> "Hehe, I knew you love me the most!"
The sweetness of the moment overwhelmed everyone, especially Zhu Zhuqing, who looked away awkwardly.
Davis glanced at Zhu Zhuqing and Anna. Zhu Zhuqing had reached level 27, while Anna's soul power was already at level 16—clearly benefiting from plant-based nutrients.
> "Zhuqing, Nana, I also have gifts for you. Your soul powers will improve quickly too."
Before Zhu Zhuqing could respond, Zhu Zhuyun pouted jealously:
> "Hmph, I knew it wasn't just for me. You're always thinking of all your 'sisters'!"
Davis laughed at her sarcasm:
> "Come on, I gave you the best herb."
> "That's more like it." Zhu Zhuyun smiled sweetly, then asked:
> "By the way, Weis, do you know what kind of edict your father is going to announce today? It's such a big deal!"
> "Haha, you'll find out soon enough," Davis winked. "But I promise you'll be very happy when you hear it."
> "Oh?" Zhu Zhuyun was now intrigued.
---
Soon after, the imperial sedan arrived.
Dai Pojun and Zhu Yaqin stepped out, and the entire Zhu family knelt down in respect.
> "Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"
> "Cousin Tianyu, cousin Caiyun, please rise. We're all family—no need for formalities."
> "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Once they stood, Dai Pojun took out three imperial edicts and handed them to a eunuch.
> "Xiao Li, read them!"
> "Yes."
Eunuch Li opened the scroll and read solemnly:
> "By the will of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims: To reward the eldest prince, Davis, for his outstanding service to the Star Luo Empire, he is hereby officially named Crown Prince!"
> "!!!"
The Zhu family was stunned.
No one expected Davis to be named Crown Prince so soon—he wasn't even 25 years old!
Zhu Caiyun glanced at Zhu Zhuqing with sorrow in her eyes. She knew what this meant.
If Davis became Crown Prince, then Zhu Zhuqing would either be killed or have her martial spirit sealed and imprisoned.
Zhu Zhuqing, however, stood silently, her gaze locked on Davis with firm belief.
She trusted him completely.
Zhu Zhuyun, on the other hand, reached over and pinched Davis hard on the waist:
> "This is the good news you mentioned? My sister is about to be abolished, and you're still smiling?!"
Davis felt her little pinch but didn't react—his current body was far too strong for it to hurt.
Eunuch Li continued with the second edict:
> "In accordance with the request of the Crown Prince, it is hereby decreed that the royal succession rules of the Star Luo Empire shall be abolished! From this day forward, all royal heirs shall live in harmony!"
Swish!
At that moment, the entire mansion erupted in excitement!
