Hearing the question from the supporter, a wave of noise erupted in the plaza again. Countless screams were all directed at the Phoenix Holy Maiden on the high platform.
Gou Luanshi looked up at the sky, waved his palm, and laughed loudly.
"The auspicious time has arrived, the marriage proposal begins!"
At this moment, the festive atmosphere of the entire Sea God's Fate Blind Date Convention venue had undoubtedly reached its absolute peak.
"Chi!"
And just as the torrent of celebration erupted into the sky, a sharp sound of breaking wind suddenly resounded in the sky. Immediately, a blue light suddenly streaked across the space, shooting violently towards the front of the high platform.
The sudden sound of breaking wind immediately attracted the attention of the entire audience. As everyone was in astonishment, Gou Luanshi's face darkened. His figure flashed, and he appeared in front of the high platform. With a wave of his sleeve, a terrifying stream of energy surged out, and finally bombarded heavily onto that blue light.
"Clang!"
A clash of metal resounded. The blue light was repelled by Gou Luanshi, and finally, after spinning in mid-air, it was heavily inserted into the hard ground. Everyone's eyes swept over. It turned out to be a slender blue long blade.
"Hehe, Dog Luanshi, why be in such a hurry? Whether today's blind date event is a wedding or a funeral, it hasn't been decided yet!"
As the long blade landed, a young, clear laugh also slowly resounded through the sky.
Hearing the clear laughter echoing in the sky, countless gazes in the plaza instantly moved upwards. Immediately, they saw a figure in the distant sky, vibrating wings of resplendent jade, coming through the air, and finally, floating proudly in the sky.
The suddenly appearing figure also caused some commotion in the plaza, because they found that the soul power fluctuations emanating from the figure standing in the sky were only at the Soul Emperor level. This meant that the newcomer was actually only a six-ring Soul Emperor.
At the high platform, after hearing that laugh, Gou Luanshi's face gradually turned grim. He raised his head, his gaze as if seeing through space, staring directly at the young man in the sky vibrating his wings of resplendent ice. His cold voice resounded through the plaza.
"Hehe, a world-plaguing demon, you dare to speak such arrogant words? Huo Yǔhào, three years ago, you relied on a group of evil soul masters to bully my Shrek. Today, three years later, I will show you what it means for the tables to turn!"
Gou Luanshi's cold laugh immediately brought about a wave of astonished whispers in the plaza.
"That person is Huo Yuhao? The Demon King who leveled Shrek City with his own power back then?"
"Hehe, who else could it be but him? He has a blood feud with Shrek. Back then, he disappeared without a trace after severely injuring Shrek at the cost of being heavily injured. But no one expected this guy to come back three years later. However, his strength hasn't increased much, and he's only come alone."
"It is said that in the battle that decided the national power of the Heavenly Soul Empire not long ago, he defeated all the experts of the Body Sect. Even that old monster Du Busi was defeated at Huo Yuhao's hands. If this is true, then this Demon King is too terrifying, isn't he?"
"It seems Shrek is in big trouble today..."
"Hey, that's not necessarily true. Shrek has the behemoth of the Sun Moon Empire backing it now. If they really fight, I'm afraid Huo Yuhao's chances of winning alone won't be too high."
Huo Yuhao also heard some of the whispers from below. He smiled, his gaze sweeping towards Gou Luanshi, but his eyes couldn't help but become bone-chillingly cold, "Old dog Luanshi, with so many grievances from our past and present lives, I'm afraid nothing but that dog head of yours can wash them away!"
As the current dean of Shrek Academy, Gou Luanshi, to be called an old dog in front of countless people, probably only Huo Yuhao would dare. Therefore, even if his personality was gloomy, his face couldn't help but look a little ugly at this moment.
While his face was ugly, Gou Luanshi's gaze also slowly swept past Huo Yuhao. A moment later, it fixed on the faces of Xie Huanyue and the others below. He immediately sneered, "What? Huo Yǔhào, are you planning to contend with my Shrek with these unfledged brats this time? Where is the Holy Spirit Cult behind you?"
"Looks like you're very afraid of the Holy Spirit Cult, huh? Isn't my Holy Cult's Supreme Hierophant also working under you? Neither of us should talk about who's clean!" Huo Yuhao said with a smile.
"Haha, good, good, very good!" Hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Gou Luanshi immediately threw his head back and laughed, "I didn't expect that after just a few short years of training this motley crew, you would have such guts. Very good. Since you're here, then you don't have to leave today!"
As Gou Luanshi's laughter fell, a series of whistling sounds suddenly came from behind him. Immediately, light flashed, and streaks of powerful auras surged up from within the academy. Then, figures flashed in the sky. The many high-level soul engineers of the Sun Moon Empire, who had long been on standby, all showed themselves at this moment.
Seeing those high-level soul engineers who had flashed out, there was another commotion in the plaza. From the looks of it, a great battle seemed inevitable today.
"Huo Yuhao, today is the day of my grand-disciple's great joy. For you to lead people to my Shrek to cause trouble, aren't you being a bit too arrogant?"
At this time, the Dragon God Douluo Mu En's voice finally sounded.
"A marriage proposal? The bride is my woman. Such a marriage proposal, I'm afraid only a fool would take it seriously, right?" Huo Yuhao smiled, his eyes suddenly condensing. A terrifying spiritual fluctuation, like lightning, enveloped the entire venue. In just an instant, a violent collision occurred in a certain dark corner.
A sturdy figure soared into the air. The Dragon God Douluo Mu En had finally been forced out by Huo Yuhao.
"Huo Yuhao, for the sake of old times, this old man will give you and your companions one last chance. Surrender."
Looking at this middle-aged man who looked as if he were a hundred years younger, Huo Yuhao had some faint guesses about Long Xiaoyao's death.
At this moment, Mu En had clearly broken free from the shame of the Ultimate Douluo of the original timeline and had become a quasi-god expert in the true sense.
In a dark corner, Xu Tianran stood up, made a chopping motion with his hand towards Gou Luanshi, but his gaze swept back and forth over Huo Yuhao's body.
Gou Luanshi immediately understood, lowered his head, and said a word. Only then did Huo Yuhao see that at his collar, there was an inconspicuous walkie-talkie.
"Beep beep beep!" A piercing alarm suddenly sounded without any warning, spreading throughout the entire venue.
An incomparably powerful spiritual pressure, with Huo Yuhao's body as the center, suddenly released outwards. Within a thousand-meter radius, all the buildings actually turned into powder in the face of this terrifying pressure, quickly clearing out an open space.
Since the Sun Moon Empire was prepared to make a move against him, Huo Yuhao had no intention of showing mercy.
At this moment, four strong lights shot into the sky and rushed into the air. These four beams of light were incomparably strong and presented seven colors. After the light beams ascended, they quickly condensed towards the center, and then transformed into a huge light shield, completely enveloping the entire city tower. For a time, the bank of the moat was covered with a magnificent seven-colored light, as if it were shrouded in divine light.
This feeling was undoubtedly very wonderful, but Kong Deming, who was beside His Majesty the old emperor, instantly turned pale.
Although the area covered by the light was not small, it just so happened to stop its diffusion in front of the elevator platform where His Majesty the old emperor was.
As a near-Class 10 soul engineer, Kong Deming's attainments in soul tools were undoubtedly extremely profound. What's more, this light was so familiar to him.
How could he not recognize the high-energy compressed array soul tool? Precisely because he recognized it, he knew even better how terrifying the power of this high-energy compressed array soul tool was. That was the power that could protect an entire city!
However, this protection range did not include His Majesty the old emperor.
Only then did Kong Deming remember that His Highness the Crown Prince, Xu Tianran, had previously invited His Majesty the old emperor to come to the Sea God's Fate Blind Date Convention to observe this grand event in person.
In other words, Xu Tianran knew that the Demon King Huo Yuhao would most likely attack the venue, and that he himself would be protecting His Majesty the old emperor, yet he still made such an arrangement.
This was to use Huo Yuhao's hand to let His Majesty the old emperor pass away! More importantly, this move was clearly Xu Tianran's way of testing his own attitude!
If he successfully protected His Majesty the old emperor, then he would become a thorn in Xu Tianran's side, the biggest obstacle to Xu Tianran's ascension to the throne. If he deliberately failed and let His Majesty the old emperor meet with mishap, he would undoubtedly be heavily used by Xu Tianran, but he would also be tied to Xu Tianran's warship.
Sigh, Your Highness, this huge Sun Moon Empire will be yours sooner or later. Why must you be in such a hurry?
