229. Chapter 228 Negotiation


Chapter 228 Negotiation
The story of all this can be traced back to the battle for important positions between the Star Luo Empire and the Green Skull Organization half a year ago.

It was a mountainous area with dangerous terrain, and the fierce battle between the two sides was at its peak. The soul-guided cannonballs streaked across the sky like meteors, and their power was so great that they flattened the towering mountain peaks. In the cruel picture of modern warfare, such a scene is not surprising. The power of various advanced weapons cannot be underestimated.

However, in this smoke-filled mountain range, the soldiers of the Star Luo Empire unexpectedly discovered a mysterious stone carving of a phoenix.

The carvings are lifelike and seem to contain infinite treasures. Unfortunately, before they could take a closer look, the carving shattered. The broken stone debris instantly turned into countless nine-color light spots, twinkling in the air like bright stars. Immediately afterwards, these light spots quickly converged, forming a nine-color phoenix shadow.

The nine-color phoenix shadow exudes a mysterious and powerful aura, as if an ancient god has descended into the world.

The soldiers of the Star Luo Empire were stunned by this sudden sight. For a moment, the noise on the battlefield seemed to be covered up by this shocking scene.

At the same time, the Green Skull resistance organization on the other side also discovered this magical scene. They knew that this phoenix shadow must be an extraordinary thing, so the two sides launched a fierce battle around this mountain peak. The war was raging and smoke was filling the air, and the soldiers on both sides tried their best.

In the end, it was the Star Luo Empire that relied on its slight advantage to successfully repel the Green Skull organization's attack.

But at this time, the nine-color phoenix shadow had disappeared, leaving only a pair of nine-color wings in its place.

After these nine-color phoenix wings were obtained by the Star Luo Empire, after careful confirmation, there was no doubt that they were an artifact.

Artifacts, in this world, are enough to make all the major forces crazy. It represents powerful power and endless possibilities, and can be used as a foundation for a force. However, the Star Luo Empire failed to discover the use of Phoenix Wings after many attempts. Perhaps it can be said that no one among them is qualified to use this artifact.

Later, the incident spread like wildfire. After the Beast King Palace learned the news, they immediately sent people to negotiate with the Star Luo Empire. The Beast Emperor's Palace has an extremely strong desire for this artifact. It has negotiated with the Star Luo Empire many times regarding soul communication, and has already reached a preliminary agreement. Therefore, Lin Xiuran was sent here for further negotiations this time.

Lin Xiuran quickly arrived at the gate of the Star Luo Empire's palace. After all, this is Xingluo's palace, which is heavily guarded, and the guards at the door are all powerful. They wore fine armor and held sharp weapons. Their eyes revealed firm belief and fearless courage. Lin Xiuran had just been observing for a while when he saw the two figures in front of him. They were the people from the Star Luo Empire who came to contact him this time.

Coincidentally, Lin Xiuran could still name these two people. One of the bald and strong men was none other than Long Yue, the Mountain Dragon King. He was tall and muscular, standing there like an iron tower. The bald head sparkled in the sunlight, adding a bit of majesty. The other ordinary-looking girl was Xu Mier from the inner courtyard of Shrek Academy. Although she looks plain, her eyes reveal a kind of perseverance and intelligence.

About a year has passed since Poseidon Fate. Long Yue ended his one-year exchange student career and wanted to return to Star Luo Continent. Xu Milier also happened to go there with him to have a look, which was equivalent to meeting his family. After all, the two are already together. However, no one expected that their departure would usher in the destruction of Shrek Academy. As a student of the inner courtyard of Shrek Academy, how could Xu Mier not feel trembling in her heart? Faced with this sudden disaster, she broke down emotionally several times. But she also understood that no matter how painful she was, she could not change this cruel ending. She wanted to return to Douluo Continent and Shrek City immediately countless times. However, they were all stopped by Long Yue in the end. After all, if the current Shrek Academy students appear in Douluo Continent, they are likely to be attacked again by the evil soul masters of the Holy Spirit Sect. Reason told her that the current situation of Shrek Academy was very critical. What she can do now is to do everything possible to contact the students who graduated from Shrek Academy and those who were not in Shrek Academy at the time and survived, that is, those inner academy students who happened to be out. Only by accumulating strength and uniting all forces that can be combined can it be possible to rebuild Shrek Academy. Therefore, she has stayed in Xingluo Continent. Originally, now that the situation in Douluo Continent was stable, she was ready to go back. However, today's reception with Long Yue saw Lin Xiuran.

"Here." Long Yue waved. Since he and Lin Xiuran had met before, they were the ones responsible for the reception this time. Lin Xiuran nodded slightly to signal the two of them, without saying anything more. Xu Milier hesitated to speak, but in the end he just gave Lin Xiuran a complicated look. She knew some of the inside story about Poseidon's Fate back then, so it was difficult for her to talk to Lin Xiuran today. There is no doubt that Long Yeyue's decision back then was terribly wrong. If Lin Xiuran was still a student of Shrek Academy today, perhaps with the relationship between Shouguang Store, Shrek Academy's reconstruction and other matters would be easy. Of course, there are no ifs. After all, if he was still a student of Shrek Academy, he might have died in that disaster.

Xu Mier did not enter the Xingluo Palace with Long Yue and Lin Xiuran. This is the palace after all, and you can't just come in casually.

"Brother Lin, there is no need to be formal. You are a distinguished guest of our Xingluo. Let us show you our friendship as a landlord." Long Yue smiled boldly and seemed very happy about Lin Xiuran's arrival.

He himself is a strong man, and the strong admire the stronger. He has a good impression of Lin Xiuran, and the fact that Lin Xiuran is stronger than him is also the strength that he is most proud of.

Therefore, based on this alone, Long Yue admired Lin Xiuran very much.

Lin Xiuran nodded calmly: "I'm not that open-minded."

They walked through the long corridor and passed several long halls. Finally, they arrived at the main hall of Xingluo Palace.

This is usually where the emperor meets with foreign guests and ministers to discuss the state of the country.

Long Yue took Lin Xiuran into the main hall and saw Emperor Xingluo sitting on the throne with deep and majestic eyes.

The emperor nodded slightly and motioned for the two of them to come forward.

Long Yue saluted respectfully and said: "Your Majesty, Lin Xiuran, the envoy of the Beast King Palace, has brought you here."
