Chapter 158 Kong Deming Falls into the Trap.
At this moment, the Sun and Moon Emperor clearly attaches great importance to what is happening within their Sun and Moon Empire.
Therefore, he immediately summoned Kong Deming.
It must be said that Kong Deming is indeed the strongest combat unit that he can summon at will.
Although Liu Yuan is now a member of their Sun Moon Empire, his situation is somewhat special.
On the one hand, the Emperor of the Sun and Moon never dared to order Liu Yuan around at will.
On the other hand, as Liu Yuan's status within the Sun Moon Empire rises higher and higher, the Sun Moon Emperor is beginning to face a situation where he has nothing left to bestow titles upon. After all, he is now a duke in their Sun Moon Empire, so if he were to perform any more extraordinary feats, the Sun Moon Emperor would be in a somewhat awkward position, as he would have little to reward him with.
Therefore, the Sun and Moon Emperor had always been very cautious in his use of Liu Yuan. This time was no exception, so he chose to summon Kong Deming for assistance.
Upon learning of the Emperor's summons, Kong Deming immediately stopped his work and came to meet him.
"Your Majesty, what has happened?"
Although he didn't know exactly what had happened, he could tell from the guards' anxious attitude that the Sun and Moon Emperor was very eager to see him. So as soon as he arrived, he went straight to the point and asked the Sun and Moon Emperor the questions that had been bothering him.
"Master Kong, please look at this."
Seeing this, the Sun and Moon Emperor did not say anything more to Kong Deming. Instead, he took out the letter he had obtained earlier and handed it to Kong Deming.
After seeing the letter that the Sun and Moon Emperor handed to him, Kong Deming naturally accepted it with both hands, and then, under the Sun and Moon Emperor's signaling gaze, began to carefully examine it.
He carefully examined the contents of the letter, but the more he read, the more his anger and solemnity grew. Finally, he couldn't help but lose control of his emotions: "Those despicable bandits, how dare they attack the civilians of my Sun Moon Empire?"
He immediately cupped his hands to the Sun and Moon Emperor before him and said, "Your Majesty, I request permission to lead the troops to suppress this group of Soul Masters! I will not be able to quell my hatred until I have captured them all and executed them by slow slicing in front of the people of my Sun and Moon Empire!"
This was clearly what the Sun and Moon Emperor wanted to see, so upon hearing Kong Deming's words, he immediately agreed, replying, "Alright!"
"Elder Kong, I have gathered the troops. I have assembled a total of one hundred level eight Soul Masters, and I have also found two more level nine Soul Masters to accompany you! I hope you can suppress these madmen who are destroying my Sun Moon Empire as soon as possible, so as to prevent the harm to the civilians from escalating further!"
Upon hearing this, Kong Deming immediately agreed: "Yes! I will do my utmost and will absolutely not let these people get away with it!"
After saying this, he bowed to the Sun and Moon Emperor again, then hurriedly walked out of the Sun and Moon Palace. After counting the number of people, he led this mighty army out of the Sun and Moon Imperial City and headed towards the city where the Soul Masters of the Douluo Three Kingdoms had caused a disturbance.
"Someone come here! Bring Old Liu to see me!"
The Sun and Moon Emperor then immediately summoned another important official.
He summoned this official to have him prepare money, so that the royal family could allocate funds to help the people overcome their difficulties.
After all, the people suffered enormous losses this time, both mentally and physically. The Emperor of the Sun and Moon certainly couldn't compensate them all, but at least he had to settle the civilians down first.
Therefore, after Emperor Sun and Moon ordered Kong Deming to send troops, he immediately made arrangements for all the follow-up matters.
Meanwhile, outside the Sun and Moon Imperial City.
Xuanzi and the others, who had been hiding in the shadows, had now discovered that Kong Deming had led his troops away from the Sun and Moon Imperial City.
After witnessing this scene, Yan Shaozhe asked Xuanzi, "Elder Xuan, Kong Deming is gone. Should we attack now?"
Xuanzi shook his head: "Shaozhe, it's not the right time to strike now."
"After all, they haven't fully engaged in combat yet. If we attack now, they'll simply turn back, leaving us surrounded and putting ourselves in a dangerous situation."
Yan Shaozhe was slightly taken aback upon hearing this: "Indeed, it seems that I was negligent."
What surprised him even more was that Xuanzi was so intelligent now. According to Yan Shaozhe's understanding of Xuanzi, if it were the old him, he might have already made a move.
"Elder Xuan, you have become very wise now!"
Upon hearing this, Xuanzi simply chuckled softly: "People always have to grow up!"
They continued to wait where they were.
Meanwhile, after a long journey, Kong Deming and his group finally arrived at their destination.
The instant they arrived at their destination, multiple signal flares were fired.
Upon witnessing this scene, Kong Deming felt a strong sense of crisis: "Signal flare, wait, could this be a diversionary tactic? Is their real target His Majesty the Emperor?"
Kong Deming immediately realized the seriousness of the problem and planned to return to the Sun and Moon Imperial City immediately.
But at this very moment, all the Soul Masters hidden throughout the city charged out.
The leading Soul Master looked at Kong Deming with a smug look in his eyes: "Since you're already here, why not leave?"
Kong Deming immediately unleashed his level 10 soul tool: "Get out of my way!"
But these Soul Douluos and Title Douluos were not afraid at all, because they had prepared to sacrifice themselves before they came.
"We admit that our strength is certainly inferior to that of Kong Deming and your forces, but it's impossible for you to pass through here easily. You'll just have to stay here obediently. By the time the time comes, the Sun and Moon Emperor should already be dead!"
After they finished speaking, they launched attacks on Kong Deming and the others one by one.
Although Kong Deming and his group were stronger, their opponents were also elite troops. Their real goal was to hold them off, not to fight them to the death. Therefore, for the time being, Kong Deming and his group were unable to break through.
This made Kong Deming's expression turn even more unpleasant: "It seems we can only rely on you, Professor Liu Yuan!"
