Chapter 1052 Sacrifice the Messenger!
Star Luo Empire, Star Luo City.
Huo Yuhao came to the capital of the Star Luo Empire again.
It is still prosperous here, but the sky over the city is shrouded in a bit of haze. The crisis of the Xingluo Empire has made it impossible for the residents of Xingluo City to remain indifferent.
The tragedy in Lingdou City has spread throughout the continent, making everyone in the other two empires feel insecure.
Now that the Sun and Moon Mission has arrived, many people in the Star Luo Empire have become nervous. Of course, there are also many heroic and tragic people who are willing to sacrifice their lives for their country, but they cannot interfere in national affairs at will. As for the request for peace, they can only sigh with regret.
When Huo Yuhao entered the capital, Xu Jiawei, together with Xu Jiujiu and all the civil and military officials, personally greeted Huo Yuhao outside the imperial city, showing their importance.
Huo Yuhao could not recognize all the nobles and officials of the Xing Luo Empire, nor could he count who had come.
But he could tell at a glance who was missing!
No one from the Duke of White Tiger’s Mansion came!
According to Huo Yuhao's intelligence, Dai Huabin has returned to the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, but has not received any punishment. After all, Dai Huabin is not the commander-in-chief on the front line, and the responsibility for the defeat is not great.
In addition, many people from the White Tiger Duke's Mansion died heroically, so Xu Jiawei could not punish Dai Huabin. Instead, he had to comfort him.
"Welcome to the Star Luo Empire, Master of the Sea God Pavilion, His Majesty the Ice God." Xu Jiawei warmly welcomed Huo Yuhao.
Ice God is Huo Yuhao’s title, which was given to him by the elders of the Sea God Pavilion.
“Your Majesty and everyone are very grateful to have come to greet you. It has been a long time since we last met, and Your Majesty is still as elegant as ever.” Huo Yuhao stepped forward and said politely with a smile on his face.
"Your Majesty the Ice God is a young genius with unparalleled charm." Xu Jiawei said respectfully.
The young man who was once looked down upon by Xu Jiawei now needs Xu Jiawei to actively please him, and everything changed in just six or seven years.
Both of them had smiles on their faces and seemed to have a close relationship, but in fact, not only were they not friends, but there was something dirty between them.
It was not a trivial matter like the one that happened during the Soul Master Competition.
Instead, Huo Yuhao once asked Xu Jiujiu to persuade Xu Jiawei to bring the Star Luo Empire to join him, but Xu Jiujiu failed to do so because Xu Jiawei did not agree.
This incident made Xu Jiawei realize part of Huo Yuhao's true face. He knew that Huo Yuhao was an ambitious person, different from the previous masters of the Sea God Pavilion.
Xu Jiawei could understand that if he had Huo Yuhao’s talent and background, he would be even crazier than Huo Yuhao.
But that doesn’t mean Xu Jiawei will recognize Huo Yuhao.
The matter was not exposed because of Huo Yuhao's strength and the power of the Sea God Pavilion. Xu Jiawei had already begun to suspect that Huo Yuhao's people existed in the Star Luo Empire. Before he was absolutely sure, Xu Jiawei did not dare to turn against Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao was somewhat dissatisfied with Xu Jiawei’s ignorance, but it was also understandable.
But because of the threat from the Sun-Moon Empire, the Star Luo Empire now has to rely on the power of Shrek Academy and Huo Yuhao.
How many emperors are willing to be subservient to others?
Huo Yuhao: No rush, just play with him!
After a simple welcome ceremony, Huo Yuhao was welcomed into the Xingluo Palace and entertained by a banquet hosted by the Xingluo Emperor himself.
Everyone in Xingluo City also knew about Huo Yuhao's arrival, which made the people of the Xingluo Empire excited, as if they had found their backbone again.
Shrek is here, and there is a blue sky!
With Shrek's arrival, the Xingluo Empire will be at peace!
This is the weight of Shrek Academy in Douluo Continent today!
Even though the Sea God Pavilion announced that they were only there to witness, everyone felt that if something really happened, Huo Yuhao would take action.
With such a reputation, which emperor would not be worried? Which emperor would not be afraid? Which emperor would be at ease?
Of course, people from other empires also knew about this, including the spies from the Sun-Moon Empire and the envoys from the Sun-Moon Empire.
This was also what Xu Jiawei did deliberately. He wanted to use this to arouse the fear of the Sun and Moon Empire and thus gain the upper hand in the negotiations.
The real negotiation results are never determined at the negotiating table, but in the competition outside the negotiating table. The negotiating table is only used to sign agreements.
But Xu Jiawei obviously couldn't figure out who the real master behind the Sun and Moon Empire was, so he misjudged the situation.
If someone else came from the Poseidon Pavilion, they would help the Star Luo Empire, but unfortunately, the person who came was Huo Yuhao.
In fact, the people from the Sun and Moon Mission are quite wary of Shrek Academy, Poseidon Pavilion and Huo Yuhao.
However, before coming, Orange sent them a secret letter, telling them not to care about the attitude of Poseidon Pavilion and just go ahead with the negotiations.
The delegation didn't know the reason, but chose to trust Orange and insisted on implementing the plan.
If you die, you may also record the five elements in history books and give titles to your wife and children!
In short, sacrificial diplomacy.
Moreover, the real purpose of the Sun and Moon Mission was not to reach any agreement, but to divert the attention of the top leaders of the Star Luo Empire.
……
night.
Huo Yuhao temporarily lived in the Xingluo Palace and rested in a palace for receiving guests. Xu Jiawei also provided him with many palace maid costumes.
The palace maids were all beautiful, many of them had spiritual power cultivation, and some of them did not look like palace maids at all, but rather like the eldest daughters of noble families.
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm knows all what the plan is.
"Brother Hao, why don't you try it?" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm asked doubtfully.
Huo Yuhao rolled his eyes in annoyance. “Brother Tianmeng, I just need a furnace to practice. I’m not really a sex-hungry ghost. Besides, most of the furnaces and cauldrons are not of much help to me now.”
Therefore, Huo Yuhao just stayed quietly in the palace without contacting anyone.
Similarly, Huo Yuhao did not see Xu Jiujiu who came to visit.
"Yuhao, it seems that the Xingluo Emperor has ulterior motives." Alex continued.
Holy Spirit Feathered Serpent also spoke up, "If what I expected is correct, then the Xingluo Emperor will use your reputation to negotiate with the Sun-Moon Empire, and in the process, he will do something to restrict you, Shrek Academy, and Poseidon Pavilion."
"This crisis may be an opportunity to break it down and then rebuild it. As long as we drag the Sea God Pavilion into the water, not only can the crisis of the Star Luo Empire be resolved, but the prestige of the Star Luo Empire can also be enhanced."
"Besides that, some of the pawns you arranged have probably been exposed, especially Xu Jiujiu. From her performance at the dinner tonight, it can be seen that she and Emperor Xingluo have already fallen out."
"But there is another possibility. This is a play they put on. They want to stage Infernal Affairs."
Huo Yuhao didn’t have a clear idea of most of the things analyzed by the Holy Spirit Feathered Serpent, but he also noticed the disunity between Xu Jiujiu and Xu Jiawei.
At the banquet, Xu Jiujiu was directly arranged to sit next to Huo Yuhao. Xu Jiawei and Xu Jiujiu did not communicate much, but his performance was already very obvious.
"Their methods are nothing more than some disgusting methods. However, the outcome of this war is already doomed."
"Since Xu Jiawei doesn't want to be respectable, then I will help him be respectable and take over the Xingluo Empire at the same time."
"Also, the matter with the White Tiger Duke's Mansion should have a conclusion."
It's dawn. It's time to destroy the Xingluo Empire~
