Chapter 190 The Metamorphosis of Youheng
Her cheeks flushed crimson in an instant. Almost instinctively, she met Dai Youheng's gaze. The question that had been swirling in her mind, which she was preparing to ask about the current level of his martial soul purification, seemed so superfluous and pale at this moment.
Some things don't need lengthy explanations; a change in aura and state can reveal the truth at a glance.
She had wanted to confirm whether he had truly succeeded in taming the terrifying Abyss Demon Tiger Martial Soul, but at this moment, the answer was clearly written on him.
The young man before me stood tall and straight like a pine tree, his demeanor calm and serene like a mountain. He was no longer aloof or sinister, but instead possessed a clear and bright demeanor, like the sun after the clouds had parted, and an inner and outer confidence. Compared to when he left, he had not been worn down by difficulties, but had instead gained a more profound and unfathomable charm and a captivating charisma.
If that Abyss Demon Tiger were truly the source of evil, violence, and corruption, it could never be so upright and radiant, as if it had completely controlled and used all power for its own purposes.
All doubts vanished instantly, and the longing that had been forcibly suppressed for nearly half a year could no longer be endured. After a long while, her lips parted slightly, and the name she uttered carried a gentleness, emotion, and a barely perceptible sob that she had never expected, "Youheng—"
These two short words contain so much emotion.
Just as Dai Youheng and his predecessor were almost two completely opposite extremes, Xu Jiujiu's attitude towards these two Dai Youhengs was also worlds apart.
What used to be annoyance at clinginess and disdain for incompetence has now transformed into appreciation for strength, admiration for wisdom, and an unconscious growing admiration and care.
"Ahem." Xu Jiawei, sitting on the throne, coughed lightly twice at the opportune moment. The sound was not loud, but it successfully interrupted the ambiguous atmosphere that was quietly spreading in the hall, and also reminded his sister to pay attention to her royal status and the occasion.
He turned from the light to Dai Youheng, his expression regaining the majesty and prudence of an emperor, "Youheng, it's good that you've returned safely."
Now that you've returned, the accusations made by Shrek Academy need a clear explanation. This matter concerns your innocence and the reputation of the Empire; it cannot be ignored. Let me see for myself.”
Dai Youheng remained calm and nodded, saying, "Youheng understands. Please examine it, Your Majesty."
With a slight thought, he ceased suppressing the immense power within him. In an instant, a profound, majestic, and pure aura emanated from his body, instantly filling the entire hall and even causing the light within to dim slightly.
A massive phantom of a demonic tiger solidified behind him. The tiger's body was agile and fluid, with dark purple stripes flowing across its surface as if it were alive. Its eyes did not hold rage and slaughter, but rather an endless majesty and power. The pressure emanating from its martial soul quality already surpassed that of the Star Luo royal family's proud direct-lineage martial soul, the Star Crown!
Immediately afterwards, six spirit rings rose one after another from beneath his feet, their dazzling brilliance breathtaking: purple, purple, purple, black, black...
red!
The fact that there are three thousand-year-old purple spirit rings that exceed the optimal ratio is already astonishing, but the blood-red spirit ring that floats at the bottom and exudes a terrifying and powerful energy is even more frightening!
Although they had already learned all this from Ling Ya's report, the dual impact of seeing and experiencing it firsthand, both visually and spiritually, still left Xu Jiawei and Xu Jiujiu with an uncontrollable look of shock in their eyes.
The sixth ring is equivalent to the 100,000-year level. In the history of Soul Masters, only Tang San, the Sea God who became a god, has ever achieved this. You should know that even the Dragon God Douluo Mu En and the original body Douluo Du Busi only reached the 100,000-year level at the seventh ring.
Xu Jiawei took a deep breath, suppressing the turmoil in his heart, and waved his hand. Two Soul Saints of the Light Attribute, who had been waiting at the side, stepped forward. Their expressions were solemn, and their bodies emanated a gentle and pure Light Soul Power, which carefully enveloped Dai Youheng and the majestic Abyss Demon Tiger phantom behind him like searchlights.
The power of light is most sensitive to darkness and evil; no trace of filth can escape its detection.
The pure, luminous soul power flowed like mercury through Dai Youheng's meridians, probing the origin of his martial soul and even touching his soul aura.
The process lasted about the time it takes to brew a cup of tea. The expressions of the two Light Soul Masters gradually changed from initial caution to surprise, and finally to complete certainty.
They withdrew their soul power, exchanged a glance, and then turned to the throne, bowing respectfully in response, "Your Majesty!"
After careful investigation, we have confirmed that Young Master Youheng's martial soul is indeed of the evil attribute, possessing a vast and unparalleled power. However, its aura is pure and refined, its foundation is solid, and the power of light flows through it without any stagnation or conflict. Furthermore, there is not a trace of evil or violent energy attached to it. Although it possesses evil attributes, it is definitely not an evil martial soul!
After listening, Xu Jiawei finally showed a genuinely relaxed and satisfied smile. He looked at Dai Youheng and praised her without reservation, "Good! Good! Good! Youheng, you have indeed not disappointed me! To be able to control such a martial spirit to such a high level of proficiency is truly a genius!"
His expression immediately turned solemn. He turned to the chief eunuch standing beside him, his tone deep and resolute, carrying the decisiveness of an imperial ruler: "Immediately send someone to Shrek Academy's headquarters in Star Luo City to inform them that Dai Youheng has been found. Three days later, I will hold a royal trial in the Imperial Palace, awaiting the arrival of all Shrek members for their 'judgment'!"
The emperor's voice wasn't loud, but it resonated clearly in the empty hall. Every word carried a metallic quality, containing a strong tone and a hint of mockery.
"They want to interrogate me? Then let them interrogate me thoroughly! If You Heng is indeed an evil soul master, and the evidence is conclusive, my Star Luo Empire will not protect or tolerate him, and will allow them to deal with him according to the Continental Convention!" Xu Jiawei's gaze swept across the hall, becoming sharp. "But if not, even if he is from the continent's top academy, he cannot arbitrarily slander and trample on the innocence and dignity of my Star Luo Empire's candidate for duke without any evidence!"
The discussion with Emperor Xu Jiawei came to an end, and the tense atmosphere in the hall eased slightly. Xu Jiawei gave the two of them a meaningful look, then excused himself, saying he was busy with state affairs, and got up to leave the hall, leaving them alone.
After a long pause, he took a deep breath and walked up to Dai Youheng. His clear eyes held a complex mix of emotions: concern, determination, and a hint of persistence.
"Youheng." She spoke, her voice softer than usual, yet carrying an undeniable force, "For the next few days, you should not return to your previous residence. Stay at my princess's residence to avoid any ill-intentioned people trying to scheme against you."
