Chapter 80 - Princess goes to Find Daddy (1/2)

”Daddy!!”

The petite girl with long ŀustrous hair cried out as she burst into the throne room. At this moment, only the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire, Dai Tianling, and his loyal subordinate, the Holy Dragon Douluo, En Ci was in there.

None of the guards of the throne room dared to stop this girl. They knew that if they did, their careers were over.

Dai Tianling was surprised at his daughter's sudden intrusion into the throne room as she ran into his arms. Noticing the state of his daughter, a dark expression appeared on his face before it was quickly hidden facing his daughter.

”Yun'er, what happened? Why are you crying?”

The girl, who was actually the most beloved princess of the Star Luo Empire, Dai Yun'er looked up in the arms of her father.

”Imperial Father, someone bullied me today! They even broke the arm of one of my guards!”

”WHAT!?!” shouted Dai Tianling in anger. However, knowing the mischievousness of his daughter, he quickly calmed down in order to know the real story before he took any action.

”Yun'er, can you explain how they bullied you?”

Dai Yun'er nodded her head with a pitiful expression on her face. She briefly described the situation that occurred previously, almost bursting out in tears once again as she did so.

A sigh emerged on Dai Tianling's lips. ”Those guards of yours… they're really stupid.” he said in exasperation. His expression quickly hardened again as he continued. ”However, that doesn't mean that any random hilly-billy has the right to besmirch the authority of the kingdom. Yun'er, what does the person who injured your guard look like?”

Dai Tianling didn't really care about the guard since that guard was a complete idiot for attacking someone in broad daylight for no reason anyways. That was merely an excuse for him to help get justice for his daughter.

”He had really striking red hair and red eyes, Imperial Father! He's at least 186cm tall, has a muscular stature, and is very handsome!” Dai Yun'er said in one quick breath.

A weird expression appeared on Dai Tianling's face hearing how vivid his daughter was about that person. She usually didn't give a crap about the appearances of most people.

Just as Dai Tianling opened his mouth to answer, a sharp hiss was heard from En Ci, who was standing at the side.

”Is there anything wrong?” Dai Tianling asked as he instantly shifted his gaze towards En Ci. Anything that could cause a reaction from a Rank 98 Hyper Douluo surely couldn't be anything minor.

In a serious voice, En Ci spoke with a sigh, ”Her description of that person sounds similar to what that man looked like…”

At those words, an expression of abject horror appeared on Dai Tianling's face. His face paled considerably as he turned his head back to look at Dai Yun'er with shock clearly on his face. ”You mean the person who appeared yesterday?!”

”Yes. If it really is him, then you should count your blessings that he didn't outright incinerate her. Although I don't think that he's a match for me, I can say with certainty that I probably wouldn't be able to stop him from escaping if he wanted to.”

Dai Yun'er, confused by their words, chose to speak up at this time. ”Are we talking about the same person, the Imperial Father? It can't be right? He looks no older than I am.”

One of Dai Tianling's eyebrows rose. ”Then maybe it's a coincidence that they look similar?”

”It may be possible…” En Ci answered slowly.

Dai Tianling let out another sigh. ”In any case, you should stay in the palace for the time being, Yun'er. The Green Skull Renegades are getting active again and now there's a renegade Titled Douluo on the loose.”

”I understand, Imperial Father.” answered Dai Yun'er with teary eyes.

”As for that boy, I'll send someone to investigate him for a bit. I want to see just what type of person dares to bully my Yun'er!”

Dai Yun'er burst out in a bright smile hearing this. ”Hehe, thank you Imperial Father.”

It was rather unfortunate that this group of people didn't understand that there were crouching tigers and hidden dragons in this world.

Two days passed in a flash. Everyone from Shrek Academy grew familiar with the city. On the third day, the Shrek Group was notified that the Emperor of Star Luo would receive the delegation that evening with a banquet following. They were advised to dress in their best for the event.

Huang Yu couldn't help but think of that girl he met three days ago when he was informed of this event by Wu Zhangkong. That girl should most likely be there since she was a princess after all.

Huang Yu wasn't worried about the Emperor doing anything. He wasn't in the wrong anyways and even if the Emperor was willing to ruin his own image and the relationship between the Star Luo Continent and Douluo Continent just for the sake of his daughter, Huang Yu was strong enough to sink the entire continent they were located on, so naturally, he didn't care.

Once evening fell, limousines pulled up to the front of the hotel to pick them up.

The Star Luo Imperial Palace stood in the centre of the city. As the Shrek Academy group arrived, trumpets sounded, playing the Empire's anthem. A red carpet rolled out of the palace to the entrance for the guests.
