Chapter 354 Revenge (10,000 words long chapter, monthly votes requested~)

"Your Highness, the Iron Dragon Corps has assembled and can set off tomorrow morning."

Outside the window, rays of sunlight shone into the room through the window, and the clear breeze blew up the thin pure white velvet curtains. Imperial Marshal Ge Long knelt on one knee and reported to Xue Qinghe behind the desk in a slightly restrained manner.

The original owner of this room was named Xue Ye, and a week ago, its owner became Xue Qinghe.

Xue Ye handed the scepter to Xue Qinghe, seemingly only asking him to deal with the matter of Tang Hao. But in fact, from that moment on, Xue Qinghe was the person who actually exercised the administrative power of the Tiandou Empire.

As a result, the owner of this study room dedicated to handling government affairs also changed from Xue Ye to Xue Qinghe.

The antique calligraphy and painting wall that used to attract people's attention has disappeared, replaced by a tall bookshelf that occupies an entire wall. Books of various types fill the space of the bookshelf. From the severely worn cover on the outermost side, it can be seen that these books have been read more than once, twice, or three times.

All the rare treasures on the desk for the emperor to play with disappeared, and were replaced by various documents. From the military affairs that all previous emperors paid more attention to, to the livelihood policies that the previous owner did not pay much attention to, there are all kinds of documents.

The layout of the desk shows that Xue Qinghe is trying his best to organize it, but due to the busy business and too much work, it still looks a bit messy.

"Get up."

Xue Qinghe put the documents he had just processed on a shelf beside him, looked at the respectful Ge Long, and asked calmly: "Are there any more resistances in the Power Clan?"

"No now, Your Highness." Ge Long shook his head, "The two riots on the first day made us exhausted. When His Majesty Du Douluo heard about this, he found me and said that he had prepared a poison and asked us to feed it to the people of the Power Clan, and then give them the antidote regularly every day."

"?"

Xue Qinghe was a little curious about what Dugu Bo had done to make Ge Long, a tough soldier, look pale, and even a little horrified when he talked about him.

As for why Dugu Bo took action, Xue Qinghe didn't care, because there was no need to think about it, it was 100% related to Gu You.

It was Gu You's suggestion to detain all the members of the Power Clan, and he must have expected the unrest of the Power Clan. If he had expected it but had not prepared countermeasures, it would not be Master Gu You but the former master.

Sensing Xue Qinghe's curiosity, Ge Long's eyes twitched, and he explained reluctantly: "The poison prepared by His Majesty the Poison Douluo will cause the poisoned person to feel numb and itchy in the ribs for more than an hour every day, and at midnight, the top of the head and the soles of the feet will feel a needle-like tingling that lasts for at least half an hour."

"Although these are not fatal and will not leave any sequelae. But every day when the poison attacks, the poisoned people will be tortured to death, and would rather faint from the pain."

"It only took three days for the hardest bones of the Power Clan to soften, and they used obedient every day to exchange for the antidote."

When saying this, Ge Long's face was as stiff as a stone, and he seemed to hear continuous screams in his ears again.

In order not to scare the elegant prince, he even secretly hid some not-so-good clips.

Ge Long had never thought that in order to relieve pain, someone would bang their defenseless head against the wall, just to faint and get through the difficult attack time. The more extreme ones who couldn't faint would grind their legs with sharp stones with bloodshot eyes, trying to relieve the pain by sawing off their legs.

It's a pity that Dugu Bo left after poisoning people, otherwise I would definitely laugh out loud.

Young people, your willpower is not good. I have been tortured for decades and I didn't have a mental breakdown. How come you only lasted three days.

"."

Xue Qinghe was dumbfounded. Is Dugu Bo, who ranks last among the titles, so scary?

To be honest, after being undercover for so long, Xue Qinghe has never looked at Dugu Bo, the only titled Douluo related to Tiandou, a few times.

After all, for a young spirit master who grew up in a pile of titles and knows only those who are above level 95, and whose grandfather is even at level 99, a titled Douluo who has not even reached level 91 is indeed a bit too ordinary.

It’s not that I look down on Dugu Bo’s strength, but he is just like a passerby in the title, and it’s not worth paying attention to.

‘So that’s it, is this your plan? ’

Unless it evolves into a real poisonous dragon, it is difficult for the poison attribute to play a role in high-end games. But when the scene changes to a crushing game, the poison attribute can produce a terrifying suppression force far beyond other attributes.

No wonder Gu You would make friends with Dugu Bo, he must have seen through his true value early on.

Once again amazed at the foresight of Gu You (non-existent), Xue Qinghe tapped the table with his index finger and said with a smile: "Every time we talk about production, Cast Iron City complains about the lack of mining workers. I guess the Li family, who are good at casting, can also shine in mining."

Ge Long couldn't help laughing and echoed: "I think so, Your Highness."

"Hahaha" x2

Just when the monarch and his subjects were in harmony and peaceful, there was a knock on the door.

Dong-Dong-Dong-

The familiar knock on the door sounded every day during this period. Hearing this sound, the two closed their mouths at the same time. A smile appeared on Ge Long's face, and Xue Qinghe, the owner of the room, had a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

After waiting for a while, without waiting for the owner's response, there was another knock on the door.

Dong-Dong-Dong-

The sound was crisp, and it was obvious that the knuckles were used instead of the palm or fist. The rhythm was neat and not too fast or too slow, which also reflected that the person knocking on the door was very cultured. Coupled with the gentle and delicate footsteps, the person outside the door must be a lady from a noble family.

Dong-dong-dong-

The person outside the door was persistent, and Ge Long lowered his voice and said: "Your Highness?"

As if moved by the persistence of the person outside the door, Xue Qinghe could only say helplessly: "Please come in."

The door was pushed open, and a young and beautiful woman with both proud and playful charms walked into the room. Seeing the two people in the room, the woman pulled up her skirt with both hands and opened it to both sides, bent her knees slightly, smiled and bowed her head and said: "Good afternoon, brother, marshal."

"Good afternoon, princess." Ge Long smiled in response. On the other hand, Xue Qinghe did not have such a good attitude as Ge Long. She did not hide her dislike for her and said, "Little sister, what are you doing here again?"

The visitor was Xue Ke, the younger sister of Xue Qinghe and Xue Beng. Compared with the princess who spent several years in Yuexuan to cultivate court etiquette and was carefully sculpted in the original work, Xue Ke, who was only thirteen years old, was in the prime of youth and vitality.

"Supervise you to rest."

Abandoning the aristocratic etiquette for outsiders, Xue Ke closed the door with her backhand and jumped behind Xue Qinghe. Noticing that there were more government documents on the table than yesterday, there was no reduction, but more government documents, and a trace of heartache flashed in her eyes.

A huge empire will have countless problems every day. Most of them are not important and will disappear by themselves if left alone. Only a very small part of them has practical significance and needs to be handled and decided by the emperor himself.

However, this does not mean that those unimportant government affairs can be left alone. If there is valuable information in it, once it is missed, the empire may have big problems.

It cannot be completely left alone. It is too time-consuming to deal with all of them seriously. The final result is that the emperor uses people he trusts to form a cabinet, and asks them to go through government affairs every day, and take out the valuable ones for the emperor to deal with separately, and give suggestions for the emperor to copy the others.

Xue Qinghe obviously does not meet the conditions for forming a cabinet. First, she is not the emperor yet, and second, her special status that cannot be seen in the light leads to her having no one she trusts in the Tiandou Empire.

In addition, she is not at ease to let others do many things. There is no way, she can only work harder every day.

Compared with the second and third brothers who are no longer alive, and the fourth brother who is of similar age but can't talk to each other at all, Xue Ke prefers to be with the gentle and elegant eldest brother Xue Qinghe who is like a prince charming. Therefore, Xue Ke stretched out ten fingers, kneaded the top of Xue Qinghe's head gently, trying to use her own method to relax the eldest brother from the heavy official duties.

Xue Qinghe did not stop Xue Ke, and closed his eyes as if enjoying it. Seeing the scene of brother and sister in front of him, Ge Long bowed slightly and turned away quietly.

As the youngest and only daughter, Xue Ke is deeply loved by Emperor Xue Ye. Her presence here represents Xue Ye's attitude to some extent, which means that Xue Ye is not afraid of that incident, but is happy to see Xue Qinghe succeed to the throne.

It is said that the Emperor Xue Ye, who has not appeared, took Prince Xue Xing to the palace by the sea for vacation, and his health seems to have improved. I don't know whether it is true or not.

The loyal Ge Long is happy to see the smooth transition of imperial power. Now, he should continue to do his business.

As for the fourth prince Xue Beng who is ignored in the corner, who cares.

After rubbing for about a quarter of an hour, Xue Ke was tired. When Xue Qinghe found that the action stopped, he opened his eyes and smiled lightly: "Little sister, it's useless for you to please me. You must go to Yuexuan."

"Big brother~"

Xue Ke wrinkled her small nose and was angry like a hamster. The lovely sister came to comfort the tired heart of the big brother with good intentions, but the big brother turned around and said this.

As the best and only aristocratic etiquette training institution in Tiandou Empire, Yuexuan has a significant influence in the aristocratic circle of Tiandou Empire. Its graduates are praised as true aristocrats and can be regarded as the golden signboard of aristocratic status.

Therefore, as long as they can afford the high training fees, almost all the nobles in Tiandou City will choose to send their children to study.

The current prince is a model graduate of Yuexuan. In addition, according to gossip, Emperor Xue Ye has some special relationship with the owner of Yuexuan that cannot be spoken out. If you have the opportunity to get in touch with the royal family, it may come in handy one day.

Yuexuan only recruits 100 students each year. For these 100 places, the nobles of Tiandou Empire almost fight for them every year.

However, as the rulers of the empire, the Xue family naturally does not need to fight for places. Xue Ye greeted Yuexuan and successfully got Xue Ke's admission quota for next year.

It's a pity that all this has no appeal to Xue Ke. Even if it is a place worth thousands of gold, the value in Xue Ke's eyes is about the same as a gold soul coin.

Even lower.

Isn't it just that she is a little arrogant, a little conceited, pointing at other noble children and calling them trash? She didn't waste the treasury's money. As a princess, this is normal. Those people are not strong, don't work hard to practice, and don't look as handsome as her elder brother. Why should she be kind to them?

Besides, there is nothing wrong with her noble etiquette. Why should she waste three years to review it?

Since you, Xue Qinghe, are unkind, don't blame me, Xue Ke, for being unjust. Xue Ke didn't want to rub it anymore, and fought back: "Don't just blame me, when will you find a sister-in-law to bring back?"

"Sister-in-law?"

Xue Qinghe's indifference disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye. On the other hand, Xue Ke showed an expression of watching a good show and said: "Father, I told you before I went out that you should find a princess to come back as soon as possible. Please also ask me to be more kind." Pay attention and see if any of your classmates have a suitable introduction.”

Xue Qinghe touched his nose and said slightly embarrassed, "There's no need to be in such a hurry."

"Of course it's necessary!"

Those who have the upper hand naturally have to pursue the victory. As the saying goes, if the opportunity is too good to miss, it will never come again. Xue Ke said quickly: "Brother, you are no longer a child. Fourth brother, he knew how to visit the palace maids at the age of ten, and he also robbed people on the street. .”

"Wait, rob?" Xue Qinghe raised his hand to interrupt Xue Ke's speech, his eyes as sharp as an eagle, and asked: "No, how do you know that my fourth brother was blessed with a palace maid at the age of ten?"

"He used to drink too much and brag to those gangsters, and I happened to hear him passing by."

'avalanche! ! ! ’

Xue Qinghe was furious in his heart, wishing he could tear Xue Ke's avalanche into pieces. But on the surface, he still maintained a gentle look, but became a little more serious and said, "Little sister, don't listen to your fourth brother's nonsense. He is bragging after drinking too much."

Of course Xue Qinghe knew that Xue Ke was telling the truth, because she knew about the rape of civilian girls. And according to Xue Beng’s character, she can really do the thing of being a lucky palace maid at the age of ten.

As for why Xue Qinghe only knew that Xue Beng had raped a common girl but not that he was a favored palace maid, then it depends on what method my dear Uncle Xuexing used.

Counting the time, the favored palace maid should have awakened her martial soul under the auspices of the nearest martial soul hall.

Maybe it's because I see another possibility of myself in Xue Ke, the possibility of a carefree life. Xue Qinghe usually takes good care of Xue Ke, even to the point of being obedient.

Xue Qinghe didn't want the juicy cabbages he had worked so hard to raise to suddenly be splashed with large portions by some disgusting guy.

“So that’s how it is”

Xue Ke believed it without a doubt. Between the two options of believing in Xue Qinghe and believing in Xue Beng, normal people knew who to choose.

Moreover, she herself knew little about the so-called "Lin Xing", and she was not a vassal of the Zhu family next door, so she needed to learn relevant knowledge early to serve the Dai family. Xue Ke, who grew up in the palace and had the Xue Qing River to protect her from wind and rain, even heard the word "Lin Xing" from Xue Ye, Xue Beng and some precocious classmates. The specific content is not clear yet.

"Okay, it's getting late, you go out and play."

After finally getting over the matter of the Crown Princess, Xue Qinghe quickly took this opportunity to see off the guests and drive them away. If Xue Ke were allowed to continue talking, it would probably last three hours.

"Great, then I want to leave the palace."

"Yeah, sure. Remember to bring a team of guards."

"Got it~"

Listening to the footsteps gradually disappearing, and confirming that Xue Ke had completely left, the gentleness at the corner of Xue Qinghe's mouth instantly collapsed, and he let out a helpless sigh.

"Alas~"

In the past, he was just a prince, and Emperor Tiandou was Xue Ye. The existence of the prince's concubine was dispensable, and even if she didn't, there wouldn't be a big problem.

But now that he has become the quasi-Tiandou Emperor who has not yet ascended the throne, the position of the Crown Princess is very important.

Everyone wants to become a relative of the emperor, and several nobles have come over to inquire about whether they are interested in his daughter and whether they want to spend some time together. Now with Xue Ke coming over to play straight ball, Xue Qinghe was a little overwhelmed.

If she were a man, this problem would probably not exist. But she's a woman, so that's why it's a big problem.

In fact, you can just find a commoner woman and start a long-distance love affair underground. It wasn't until recently that the relationship finally came to fruition. Then he used the wealthy life of a nobleman as a bargaining chip to secretly threaten her not to tell the truth.

As long as there is a trace of greed in your heart, you don't have to worry about betrayal by a common woman.

You can also ask the woman to send a female soldier who can withstand the investigation. The operation is the same as the former, except that the threat is removed.

As for the nobleman and soul master Xue Qinghe, he had not considered it. The former had connections and was more likely to spill the beans. The latter has personal strength and may choose to betray out of boredom.

Moreover, with the presence of a princess, new problems will arise.

Marry a wife and have children. Marry a wife and have children. Once you have married a wife, it’s time to have children.

The empire needs an heir, but Xu Tianran, the future emperor of the Sun and Moon Empire, worked very hard to find an heir, and even died because he had no heir.

If Xu Tianran had an heir, he would not have forced the tangerine to be planted with the prince of the Sun and Moon Empire, in order to give birth to the crown prince with the purest blood of the Sun and Moon Empire. If Orange was not forced to borrow someone he didn't like, Orange would not borrow Huo Yuhao, let alone betray him, and join forces with Huo Yuhao to kill Xu Tianran.

As a result, the Sun and Moon Empire's surname was Xu, but in fact, its surname was Dai, and it was lost to the grandma's family.

Of course, this is a problem for the future. Xue Qinghe doesn't know what to do now, so he can only take one step at a time.

I don’t know what Tiandou people think about homosexuality. If you can accept it, maybe you can ask Gu You to sacrifice a little to help.

Emperor Tiandou and Master Guyou got married?

After confirming that no one was around, She Long, who was hiding behind the screen, walked out and whispered: "Young Master."

"Elder She Long," She Long suddenly appeared and interrupted Xue Qinghe's wandering thoughts. He did not look back, twisted his stiff neck, bent down at the desk and continued to frantically type out the files on the desktop, "What did that woman say?"

"The Pope agreed." She Long lowered his eyes, "But she has a request, saying that you need to use your identity as the crown prince of the Tiandou Empire to negotiate with her before she will agree to send more manpower to further blockade the Haotian Sect."

She Long looked a little tired. He was traveling non-stop to and from Tiandou City and Wuhun City, which was not very friendly to his attack type. In the past, she could be lazy and take her time, but this time the situation was urgent, and She Long could only rush forward with all his strength.

Fortunately, the Martial Spirit Snake Spear, as a weapon Martial Spirit, also provides the powerful physical body of the Beast Martial Spirit, otherwise it would not be possible to run back and forth like this.

"I see."

Xue Qinghe's expression was calm, and it seemed that Bibi Dong's answer did not cause any mood swings in her. She Long noticed carefully that the young master's hand paused for a moment, and then he started writing a little faster, and the tip of the pen seemed to be about to punch a hole in the paper.

She Long has been with the young master for a while. It seems that the young master and Bibi Dong have nothing to do with each other, but from the name to the attitude, this is obviously not the case. In addition, Bibi Dong disappeared for no reason for a while when she was still a saint.

We don’t dare to say it, and we don’t dare to ask it either.

"By the way, young master." She Long quickly changed the subject, "My subordinate has something unclear."

"explain."

"Why did Master Guyou arrange for the sinners of the Force Clan to go to the Cast Iron City?"

Although She Long and Ge Long both have dragons in their names, the difference in strength and identity allows She Long to ask many questions that Ge Long cannot.

The whereabouts of the Force Clan is one of them.

With the characteristics of the Force Clan, there is nothing wrong with letting them go into the mines. In addition to iron ores, there are many veins of rare ores near the Cast Iron City. Compared with ordinary people, they who are strong and physically strong can undoubtedly dig much more mines in the same time.

The Keli clan is better at forging. From the perspective of the Tiandou Empire, only by arranging them to forge weapons and equipment can their value be maximized. At the same time, it can also allow Gelong's Iron Dragon Legion to escape from it and facilitate other tasks.

Without skilled blacksmiths, no matter how much ore there is, it will be useless.

"Elder She Long."

"Yes, what are your orders, young master?"

Xue Qinghe asked calmly: "How do you think the weapons and equipment forged by Titan compare with the power of your snake spear?"

"Back to Young Master, it's not even half as good as the Snake Spear."

She Long's voice was not filled with pride, but rather with the shame of being looked down upon. When can the weapons and equipment forged by a mere blacksmith be compared with a martial spirit that has been tempered thousands of times?

"That's right, no matter how good the blacksmith's skills are, the weapons and equipment he forges cannot be as good as the soul master's martial soul that can add soul rings."

Xue Qinghe took out a palm-sized object from the soul guide and threw it to She Long behind him without looking back. "So Master Guyou gave me a suggestion, a suggestion that could change the world."

She Long took it and took a look and found that what Xue Qinghe handed him was an octagonal badge.

The feel and weight indicate that this is made of ordinary steel. It felt strangely warm when I first took it, and the slightly rough surface was engraved with a red dragon-shaped pattern.

The only special thing is that the dragon's eyes are made of a small red gem. His title-level observation ability allowed him to find traces of precision processing inside.

"This is?"

"Dragon Talisman, a small sample given to me by Master Gu You." Xue Qinghe explained: "The way to use it is to input soul power. As for the effect, you can try it yourself."

"Remember, don't hurt my study."

Xue Qinghe's words were meaningful, but it was a pity that She Long did not understand Xue Qinghe's meaning. He played with the iron lump in his hand, not understanding how this would change the world.

The pattern is not very pretty, and the paperweight used when writing or drawing will probably cost you money. The red gem should be some kind of low-level fire-attribute natural material and earthly treasure. The heating of the iron is due to the effect of the red gem, not the specialness of the iron itself.

As for more, She Long couldn't tell.

Finally, he decided to input the soul power as the young master said to see what was special about this thing.

boom!

A ball of fire hit She Long in the face unexpectedly, almost burning his well-tended hair into curls.

"Pfft"

"?"

She Long turned his gaze to Xue Qinghe, who was working at the desk, and asked, "Young Master, did you laugh just now?"

"No." Xue Qinghe shook his head. This is definitely unacceptable. A considerate boss cannot embarrass his subordinates.

Besides, she didn't expect that She Long would be so upright and point the Dragon Talisman right in her face.

"I've tried it, what's your opinion?"

"."

She Long opened his mouth, wanting to speak and devaluing this thing as worthless. But there was a voice in his heart reminding him not to underestimate this seemingly toy.

Not hearing She Long's answer, Xue Qinghe said as he expected: "Weapon soul guide - Dragon Talisman, a weapon soul guide made of ordinary iron ore and flame red stone. As long as you input soul power, you can shoot fireballs. attack."

She Long was shocked and asked eagerly: "Weapon soul guide? And the Holy Sword of Light?"

"Exactly the same." Xue Qinghe confirmed She Long's guess, and gave him an even greater shock: "The current level of the Dragon Talisman is not as good as the Holy Sword of Light, but this is a brand new one completed by the cooperation between him and Tang San. Weapon soul guide."

"Remember, it's a brand new weapon, the soul guide."

"What a terrifying talent. Unparalleled knowledge of martial arts theory, unrivaled political layout, and long-lost soul guidance device manufacturing technology. Is there anything he can't do?"

Xue Qinghe couldn't help but sigh, while he was still complacent about his innate level 20 soul power and the Seraph Martial Spirit, Gu You had actually begun to seek power other than the Martial Spirit to recreate the glory of ancient civilization.

This truth made She Long dumbfounded. He didn't want to know the truth that would destroy his Taoist heart.

"Now you understand why he arranged for the Force Clan to go mining."

"Yes, I understand."

She Long was convinced. Rather than letting the force clan forge weapons and equipment that were meaningless in the eyes of the soul masters, it was undoubtedly more important to let them mine rare ores for making powerful weapons and soul guides.

At this moment, the blood-piercing figure of Agedis Douluo suddenly appeared in the room. And beside him, there was a beautiful woman who should not have appeared.

"Young Master, we are back." Qixue lowered his head, while the woman bowed slightly. This time Xue Qinghe put down the pen in his hand, raised his head and asked, "Have you made any new discoveries, Elder Bloodthorn, Nightingale."

That's right, the one who was following Cavaliers Douluo was Nightingale who was having a great time catching fish in the Spirit Temple of Tiandou City. One second she was eating apples and singing, and the next second she was being wooed by Douluo the Agouti for no apparent reason.

Considering multiple trump cards and multiple paths, Qian Renxue ordered Lianxue to go to Wuhun Palace to find Platinum Bishop Saras on her way back to the palace, and explain her identity and Wuhun Palace's plans to him, in order to prevent Unexpected changes occurred in the palace.

However, this idea was stopped by Gu You.

All joking aside, there is a high probability that an angel fanatic like Salas would immediately call upon the followers of Wuhun Palace to rise up and join the palace to serve as King Qian Renxue after learning about the identity of the orthodox heir to the Seraphim Qian Renxue.

What? Bibi Dong’s plan to seize power peacefully?

Find someone else and don't let our angelic heirs do this dirty work.

Qian Renxue was convinced. She had also heard about Saras's fanatical belief, and she could indeed do such a thing. Finally, under Gu You's suggestion, Lan Xue found Nightingale as a trump card in the Spirit Temple of Tiandou City.

Nightingale: Guyou, you actually repaid kindness with hatred!

Gu You: Sister Nightingale, I can’t even catch fish, how can I let you fish alone? Just work overtime for me, Jie Jie Jie.

The above conversation was just a joke. Nightingale was from the hidden force of Wuhun Palace under Ghost Douluo, and was very good at snooping for information and conducting infiltration investigations. No matter whether the result of forcing the uterus is success or failure, this kind of talent can be used under Qian Renxue.

Seeing that Xie Xue had no intention of speaking, Nightingale said with discernment: "Back to Young Master, we haven't found the missing Tai Lung yet, and there are no new discoveries at the battle location."

As the Romans do, Nightingale now calls Qian Renxue her young master. Although I couldn't see the true appearance of "Xue Qinghe", it was impossible for the Seraph Martial Spirit and the two Martial Spirit Hall elders to be fake.

This answer obviously did not satisfy Xue Qinghe. She frowned and said, "Guyou's attack severely injured Tailong into a coma, and he showed no sign of waking up until he left. Today Dou City is still under lockdown to restrict entry and exit. In such a state, can he escape with a seriously injured body and avoid layers of guards? "

"No, young master," Nightingale denied Xue Qinghe's guess. "My subordinates believe that an unknown third party took Tai Long away."

The next day, Tiandou City.

"Extra number! Extra number! Tiandou City will be unblocked tomorrow, Tiandou City will be unblocked tomorrow!"

The newsboy holding the latest issue of "Tian Dou Bao" shuttled through the streets and alleys, hoping that the news would attract passers-by to take out soul coins to buy the newspaper in his hand.

"Kid, give me the newspaper."

Soon, a roadside pork vendor bought the newspaper from the newsboy and started reading it quickly.

Tiandou City was closed for a week, prohibiting any non-official personnel from entering or exiting, and a curfew was imposed at night. The inventory in the hands of the hawker has almost been sold out. Although he took this opportunity to make a fortune, if he continues to seal it, he is afraid that he will starve to death even though he is rich.

Since he couldn't leave the city, the soul master's soul hunting activities were forced to drink tea instead. In a beautifully decorated teahouse at the corner of the intersection, soul masters gathered in twos and threes to chat and drink tea.

"Hey, have you heard that the big hammer and the big snake in the sky are Haotian Douluo's Clear Sky Hammer and Poison Douluo's Jade Scale Snake respectively."

"We have no grudge against Haotian Douluo, right? Why would he attack us?"

"Who knows, he even dares to kill the Pope. Killing ordinary soul masters like us is probably as easy as drinking water."

"Wow, this is crazy."

"Rumors say that His Highness the Crown Prince is now in charge of the overall situation because Emperor Xueye suddenly passed away."

"?" "?" "?"

"Don't believe it, Emperor Xueye has always been in poor health. The battle between Tang Hao and Poison Douluo Mianxia caused him to suddenly become ill. The imperial doctor could not save him, so His Highness the Crown Prince had to deal with it."

".That makes sense." x3

"I really hope His Royal Highness can ascend the throne as soon as possible. I can't wait to call you Emperor Xue Qinghe."

"The bastard of the Force Clan has finally been punished. I have long disliked that guy named Titan."

"I heard that they were arranged to mine for five hundred years. I don't know if the empire is just pretending."

"Don't talk nonsense, this is an order from His Highness the Crown Prince. His Highness the Crown Prince will do what he says, and he also asked Marshal Ge Long to lead the Iron Dragon Legion to personally supervise it. There will definitely be no less than one year in these five hundred years."

"As expected of His Highness the Crown Prince, he is even more courageous than Xue Ye who is He Xini."

"It is rumored that His Highness Xue Qinghe plans to meet with the Spirit Hall's Platinum Bishop Salas in the palace tomorrow to discuss how to deal with Haotian Douluo."

"Is this true? The royal family hasn't communicated with the Spirit Hall for a long time. And the Platinum Bishop, why don't you say that the Pope is here in person."

"Really, my eldest brother is doing odd jobs in the Spirit Hall, and this matter has spread in the Spirit Hall."

"I tell you, the Haotian Sect is a group of lunatics. I have known for a long time that they are a group of lunatics!"

"Keep your voice down! Sorry, sorry, he drank too much, I will pull him away immediately."

"Don't pull me, hiccup, they are just a group of crazy people who smash and smash! Those who use the Haotian Hammer are crazy!!!"

"Miss, you haven't closed your eyes for three days, you really need to rest."

On the third floor of Yuexuan, Tang Gui half-forced Tang Yuehua away from the window and pulled the curtains to prevent the outside sound from entering the room.

There were only him and Tang Yuehua in the room, so he changed his address to Tang Yuehua from Yuexuan's wife to the eldest lady of Haotian Sect.

"It's not like that, Haotian Sect is not like that."

Tang Yuehua looked devastated and fell down on the sofa helplessly. The soft and comfortable sofa did not relax her as usual, but the feeling of no support became stronger.

Yuexuan had stopped classes, so she didn't have to worry about being seen by outsiders. She slowly slid down on the sofa, muttering: "You misunderstood, Haotian Sect is not like that."

It took only a week for Haotian Sect to go from being a respected upper three sect to a hammer sect full of crazy people. It was so fast that Tang Yuehua couldn't react. This trend had already taken shape and intensified.

Everyone hated Haotian Sect, and everyone rejected Haotian Sect. It seemed that hating Haotian Sect was politically correct in Tiandou City.

Obviously, Gu You's plan worked.

First, let Xue Qinghe block Tiandou City on the grounds of public safety, so that the people of Tiandou City could only hold back their complaints. After a few days, by selectively spreading some news, the blockade will be directed at Haotian Sect and Tang Hao, and the people of Tiandou City will vent their frustrations and even strengthen this cognition in the communication.

The result is that the favorability of Haotian Sect in the hearts of the people of Tiandou City plummeted, and there was almost no voice opposing the cooperation between the Tiandou Empire and the Spirit Hall to deal with Haotian Sect. Some people even proposed that the Iron Dragon Legion assist the Spirit Hall to block the gate of Haotian Sect.

As for "Why did the Power Clan disappear when the Tiandou Empire and Haotian Sect fought?", no one cared.

That's right, this is all learned from studying journalism. If it weren't for the fact that Haotian Sect really had weapons of mass destruction, Gu You would have wanted to reproduce the classic laundry detergent.

Tang Yuehua didn't understand why Tang Hao suddenly attacked the child, and she didn't know that the miserable situation of the sect was the crazy revenge of this child. In her heart, her brother Tang Hao was a great hero who stood tall and upright, and Haotian Sect was the strongest and greatest sect on the continent. She would never allow Haotian Sect to be misunderstood by outsiders.

But she was insignificant and her ninth-level soul power could do nothing. She wanted Tang Gui to go back to the sect and tell her brother Tang Xiao about this, so that Tang Xiao could help revive the reputation of Haotian Sect.

It was the prince Xue Qinghe who ordered the blockade of Tiandou City, not the emperor Xue Ye who was rumored to have a relationship with her. Tang Yuehua knew that Xue Ye had improper thoughts about her, but if she couldn't find Xue Ye, she couldn't use her improper thoughts.

Xue Qinghe didn't see outsiders. Even if she found many students' connections as the owner of Yuexuan, she couldn't send people out of Tiandou City in advance. Now the situation is set, just waiting for Xue Qinghe to open the floodgates and let this anti-Haotian Sect storm sweep the entire empire.

"Miss, please have a good rest, I'll go out and find out more."

Since her own eldest lady was useless, Tang Gui was very perceptive and took the initiative to go out to find out information. After a simple request, he changed into simple clothes and walked out of Yuexuan, heading towards the mixed market.

The situation in the market was even worse than near Yuexuan. Soul masters at least respect their status and don't swear easily, but civilians don't care about this, and all kinds of vulgar words are thrown at the head of the Haotian Sect.

Considering that the blockade has a greater impact on civilians, Xue Qinghe ordered the opening of the granary to help civilians and ensure that everyone can have enough food. But just like relief food, no matter how good the relief food is, it can't compare to a normal meal, and the quality of life of civilians cannot avoid continuing to decline.

This account was naturally counted on the head of the Haotian Sect and Tang Hao.

Tang Gui glanced at the crowd with contempt. They were just ants, and they were only worthy of talking. When the Haotian Hammer really hit them, these people would be scared to death.

"Humph."

While no one was paying attention to him, Tang Gui turned and walked into the alley next to him. He passed through several alleys and finally stopped in front of one of the doors.

In the room next to him, an old lady carrying a bucket just came out. Seeing Tang Gui, she was surprised and said, "Hande? When did you come back?"

"I came back a long time ago, Aunt Susan." Tang Gui greeted the old lady gently.

Han De was his pseudonym here. His public identity was the guard of the caravan, which was convenient for him to hide that he was not at home all day. The people living here were of low status and it was almost impossible for them to appear near Yuexuan. So Tang Gui did not disguise himself, and no one found out that Han De was the high-ranking Tang Gui supervisor in Yuexuan.

After a brief greeting and a few complaints about Haotian Sect, Tang Gui said goodbye to Susan and walked into the room.

The room was very dim, and the thick curtains blocked out the sunlight. The layout inside was also simple, with a table, a chair, and a small bed, which perfectly matched the character of a bachelor who had been away from home for a long time.

The premise is to ignore the humanoid creature wrapped in bandages like a mummy and locked with thick iron chains on the bed.

Tang Gui pulled the chair to the bedside and pulled off the rag stuffed in the mouth of the humanoid creature. He smiled and said, "Awake?"

"."

There was no answer, Tang Gui didn't care, and continued, "Grandpa died, Dad was seriously injured, the tribe was arrested, and the most admired Haotian Sect was slandered by ants. It feels very uncomfortable."

"."

The heavy breathing became heavier, and it was obvious that Tang Gui's words hit the pain point in his heart. He just couldn't move or speak, but his ears were not deaf. The thousands of ducks nearby had already told him everything that had happened in the past few days when they were chatting.

"Who are you?"

The mummy opened his eyes and stared straight at the person he had never seen by the bed. The voice was dry and hoarse, obviously he hadn't drunk a drop of water for a long time.

"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that someone is trying to take away everything you cherish."

"What do you need me to do?"

Tang Gui smiled with satisfaction and took out a book called "The Book of Awakening" and placed it next to his pillow.

"Take away everything from him."
