Chapter 262: The Law-God Knows the Law but Breaks It, Threatening a Mother with His Despicable Actions!
After the live stream revealed the situation through the communication between the Star Luo Empire soldiers, the camera quickly zoomed in.
In the blink of an eye, it arrived at the royal palace of Star Luo Imperial City.
At this moment, the palace's grand hall was eerily quiet.
At the highest throne, a middle-aged man dressed in imperial robes appeared exhausted, his face pale, lips cracked, with dark circles under his eyes.
It was evident to everyone that the pressure he was facing was immense.
Within the hall, there were quite a few people present.
Most of them were unfamiliar to the viewers, but there were some familiar faces as well, such as the Taotie Douluo Xuan Lao who appeared in a previous live stream.
Also present were some Shrek Academy students like Bei Bei, Tang Ya, Xu Sanshi, He Caitou, and Jiang Nannan.
These were all from Shrek Academy.
Apart from them, the civil and military officials of the Star Luo Empire were also in the hall.
The Emperor, sitting on the throne, seemed to have lost hope of defeating the Sun Moon Empire. A faint, self-deprecating smile appeared on his lips. After a deep sigh, he waved his hand, signaling everyone to leave Star Luo Imperial City quickly.
The situation had become irreparable, and there was no need for unnecessary sacrifices. As the emperor of the Star Luo Empire, he would live or die with the empire, but the others had no reason to die with it.
Many of the ministers were moved to tears, expressing their desire to stay and die with the empire.
However, the Emperor merely sighed and shook his head, telling them not to deceive themselves and to leave as soon as possible.
Afterward, the Emperor instructed Duke Baihu, Dai Hao, to open the two gates of the southeast of the Star Luo Imperial City, allowing the citizens to escape and avoid being slaughtered by the Sun Moon Empire's army.
Seeing that the Emperor truly meant for everyone to leave, though many ministers were loyal to him, most had families behind them.
Even if these ministers wanted to stand with the Star Luo Empire, considering their families, they eventually left the palace with tears in their eyes.
In the blink of an eye, the palace was almost empty.
The Emperor then instructed Xuan Lao to preserve some of the seeds of Douluo Continent.
If the Sun Moon Empire were to force Douluo Continent to change its name and merge with the Sun Moon Continent, Xuan Lao was to make sure those seeds remembered they were from Douluo Continent and that one day, they would restore its name.
Xuan Lao, deeply moved, choked up and promised to follow the Emperor's orders, for he too was from Douluo Continent.
Just then, a booming voice came from outside.
"By the decree of the Empress of War, within three days, hand over Duke Baihu Dai Hao. If the Star Luo Empire surrenders, there will be no bloodshed, no plundering, and everything in Star Luo Imperial City will remain as it is. Otherwise, not even the dogs and chickens will be spared!!"
The Star Luo Empire was furious at the Sun Moon Empire's orders, but they did not understand why.
The Sun Moon Empire now held such a huge advantage; could they still be afraid of Duke Baihu?
However, those in the live stream already understood the situation.
Previously, when the camera had focused on Orange, the live stream had shown that Orange's enemies weren't just the Star Luo Empire, but mainly Duke Baihu Dai Hao.
Despite the Sun Moon Empire's demand, the Star Luo Empire did not choose to surrender and hand over Duke Baihu Dai Hao. Instead, they placed their hope of defeating the Sun Moon Empire on a Soul Guidance device that Xuan Ziwen was working on.
Then, the camera shifted to another location.
This was the Sun Moon Empire's camp, where Orange, dressed in bright red battle armor, was standing outside a tent, silently gazing at the walls of Star Luo Imperial City in the distance.
At that moment, the live stream played Orange's inner thoughts.
She was hoping that the Star Luo Empire would hand over Duke Baihu Dai Hao and surrender. If that happened, she could reduce the bloodshed and fulfill the promise she made to Huo Yuhao.
However, after waiting for a long time, there was no response from the Star Luo Empire.
This angered Orange, who immediately ordered the Sun Moon Empire's army to begin an assault on Star Luo Imperial City.
As the Sun Moon Empire's legions approached the city, waves of dark green light shot up from within Star Luo Imperial City, exploding in the sky and emitting a bright green glow.
These green bursts swept toward the Sun Moon Empire's forces, causing confusion in their ranks.
The Soul Guidance screen Orange had been using to monitor the battlefield malfunctioned, and Xuan Ziwen's mocking laugh echoed through the scene.
At that moment, everyone in the live stream understood.
It turned out that the Sun Moon Empire's strength came largely from the interconnected functionality of their Soul Guidance devices. These devices, using similar energy waves, could be guided to attack or defend.
The Soul Guidance device Xuan Ziwen had created could disrupt this wave, neutralizing the Sun Moon Empire's coordinated attacks.
With this trump card, the Star Luo Empire launched a sudden counterattack, dealing significant damage to the Sun Moon Empire's forces. To minimize further losses, Orange reluctantly ordered a retreat.
However, after the Sun Moon Empire regrouped, they eventually regained control of the situation.
Taking advantage of the Star Luo Empire's overconfidence and lack of defense, the Sun Moon Empire struck decisively and destroyed the Star Luo Empire's forces.
With that, the Star Luo Empire was officially defeated in this war!
After the victory, Orange issued another order for Star Luo Empire to hand over Duke Baihu Dai Hao and then surrender.
Having no hope of victory, Duke Baihu Dai Hao left the Star Luo Empire's army and came before Orange.
Orange coldly mentioned her hatred for Dai Hao, but Duke Baihu Dai Hao, unconcerned, said that death was inevitable in war and that he didn't even remember killing Orange's father.
This enraged Orange, and she threatened to massacre everyone in Star Luo Imperial City!
Hearing this, Duke Baihu Dai Hao finally showed anger.
Seeing this, Orange felt some satisfaction. Her earlier threats had been empty words.
However, after seeing Duke Baihu Dai Hao's anger, Orange coldly declared that she would kill him to avenge her father.
At this point, although the Sun Moon Empire seemed to have an overwhelming advantage, everyone in the live stream understood that Orange was bound to fail.
After all, Huo Yuhao was the child of destiny in Douluo Continent, and Dai Hao was Huo Yuhao's father. Since Huo Yuhao stood with the Star Luo Empire, Orange would certainly fail.
It was like how, in a previous live stream, Tang San, despite being at a disadvantage, managed to defeat Bibi Dong.
But everyone was curious about how Orange would fail. Would it simply be Huo Yuhao showing up and defeating the Sun Moon Empire?
For what was to come, Lin Yu couldn't help but sneer.
Because what would happen next wasn't just Huo Yuhao's appearance; it was also the arrival of Tang San, the Law-God of the Divine Realm, who would descend to Douluo Continent, breaking the law to intervene.
Then, despite knowing everything, he would pretend to be a benevolent figure and ask why Orange had to reveal the truth, making it look as if Huo Yuhao had wronged Orange.
His actions were truly disgusting!
Afterward, Tang San, as a god, would attack Xu Yunhan, a child, and use him to threaten Orange, forcing the Sun Moon Empire to return Star Luo Empire's territory and rename it the Heaven Dou Empire.
This was the so-called "gods can't interfere with Douluo Continent," which was utterly laughable!
A god who breaks the law, bullying the weak, and using a child to threaten a mother—he was nothing but a despicable god!
The God of Destruction should have crushed this hypocrite, Tang San, long ago!
