Douluo Continent: Starting with a Tom Cat

Page 216

Lingluan Douluo simply pursed her lips; she hadn't expected things to develop so smoothly.

Shen Angang injured Yu Yuanzhen with a single sword strike, and Yu Luomian decisively jumped in and personally took charge to clear the way for the Spirit Hall.

They thought it would be a major battle with some twists and turns, but in the end, none of their men died, and there wasn't even a trace of injury.

All she could do was sigh, "Yu Luomian, what a good dog!"

Chapter 316 Ambition to Establish a Nation, Shen An Approaches the Sword Sect

Under the manipulation of the traitor Yu Luomian, a purge occurred within the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family.

At the same time, Yu Luomian made it clear that he would uphold the leadership of the Spirit Hall, with an expression that suggested he would support Yu Long even unto death.

This second-in-command practically wore his loyalty on his sleeve.

Lingluan Douluo was very satisfied; this was definitely a great achievement.

Therefore, Shen An asked him to take all the Soul Masters away first, while he himself stayed in the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan for the time being.

Oh, it should now be called the Blue Lightning Branch of the Spirit Hall.

Yu Luomian sat on the throne that originally belonged to his elder brother, his expression revealing infatuation. Now, he was the absolute person in charge of this family.

However, a figure quickly appeared in front of him.

Dressed in white robes and wearing a jade crown, he possessed an extraordinary and distinguished air.

"It's just a chair, is it really that comfortable to sit on?"

Yu Luomian's expression immediately changed. He quickly rose from his throne, his old face plastered with a smile:

"Please forgive me, sir. This is just a wish I've always had. Actually, sitting on it is nothing special."

Shen An curled his lip. "So-so? Just now, that Jade Crown was practically moaning from enjoyment."

"Sir, is there anything I can do for you?"

Yu Luomian spoke respectfully, his posture so humble that even Shen An was amazed.

Judging from what we just saw, this second-in-command is absolutely obsessed with power; he can be so happy just sitting in a chair.

Even though Yu Yuanzhen is gone, isn't the Spirit Hall still keeping him in check?

Shen An simply shook his head and stopped thinking about it, only saying that everyone wants different things.

"I've come to bestow upon you a great fortune," Shen An said with a smile.

The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex clan had been defeated and subdued by him, so naturally he couldn't let them submit to Bibi Dong for nothing. Wouldn't that be aiding the enemy?

Yu Luomian looked at Shen An in confusion. Great fortune? What great fortune?

He instinctively sensed something was wrong and was about to refuse when he saw Shen An naturally place his hand on his shoulder, and a surge of sword energy flowed naturally within his body.

The power unique to the number one beast martial soul in the world was frantically retreating.

"Don't rush, let me explain it to you in detail, and then think about it carefully," Shen An said with a smile.

Yu Luomian felt the power within his body and said solemnly, "You flatter me, sir. It is my honor to serve you. In any case, I will do it."

"Haha, I knew Patriarch Yu was a smart man."

Shen An's face was full of smiles, and Yu Luomian also laughed along, but his smile was somewhat bitter.

An hour later, Shen An also left the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Clan, leaving Yu Luomian alone on the spot with an uncertain expression.

-

Shen An flew back to Wuhun City on his sword, only to bump right into Ghost Douluo and his group.

Looking at the gloomy faces of Ghost Douluo and his group, he knew that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was without worry.

Seeing Shen An's leisurely expression, Ghost Douluo could guess that the other party had definitely completed the mission perfectly, which made Ghost Douluo even more depressed.

Wouldn't they look useless when compared to an excellent employee?

"You~"

Just as Ghost Douluo was about to ask a question, a Soul Douluo hurriedly flew over.

"Your Holiness, His Holiness the Pope invites you."

Now, Ghost Douluo could only swallow his questions and had no choice but to bite the bullet and go ahead.

Inside the Papal Palace, Bibi Dong listened to Ling Luan Douluo's report with a look of joy on her face.

"Excellent! Yan Chixia truly lives up to my high regard."

The Ghost Douluo group, who had just entered, couldn't help but tremble upon hearing Bibi Dong's laughter.

Bibi Dong was clearly in high spirits, so how could he possibly speak?

Bibi Dong's gaze also fell on the seven Title Douluos, led by Ghost Douluo.

Then, she noticed that the seven titled Douluo all looked slightly unpleasant.

Bibi Dong felt a sense of foreboding instantly. With seven Title Douluos and ten thousand Soul Masters, even the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School couldn't possibly turn the tide.

She asked tentatively, "How's it going with you?"

The seven titled Douluo bowed their heads and remained silent, which undoubtedly fueled the strangeness in Bibi Dong's heart.

"Speak quickly!"

The six titled Douluo, including Yue Guan, all stepped back, leaving only Gui Mei to face Bibi Dong.

Ghostly: ......

Damn! As a titled Douluo specializing in agility and attack, he was actually the slowest one at this moment.

Ghost had no choice but to say, "Your Holiness, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is willing to submit to the Spirit Hall."

Bibi Dong's expression softened slightly, but she looked at Gui Mei with displeasure. Wasn't this good news?

"But this was the result of an agreement between the other party and the Hall of Offerings. When we arrived, the Second Elder was chatting and laughing with Chen Xin."

Bibi Dong: ? ? ?

At this moment, she almost lost control of her soul power and coughed heavily. This was the injury that Qian Daoliu had left on her body earlier, which had not yet healed.

The extreme highs and lows in my mood further stirred it.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's allegiance to her and its allegiance to the Offering Hall are two completely different concepts. Everyone knows that she and the Offering Hall are now at odds.

"you!"

Bibi Dong's face turned ugly. She instinctively wanted to reprimand him, or even hit him, but she ultimately held back.

First, we are in need of personnel right now, and arbitrarily punishing people could shake morale.

Secondly, the Hall of Offerings and the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School secretly discussed something that no one knew about, so the fault certainly did not lie with these people.

Bibi Dong slowly closed her eyes and exhaled a breath of pent-up frustration.

She sat on the papal throne, looking somewhat weary.

"The surrender of Qibao is nothing compared to the fact that the Spirit Hall's core territory is still under my control. Qian Daoliu has already attacked me once; there's absolutely no way he'll do it again."

Bibi Dong opened her eyes again and said coldly, "Alright, this time it's not your fault. You may all leave now. Yan Chixia and Lingluan, stay here."

The seven ghosts were also relieved; the extremely shrewd pope hadn't held them accountable.

"It is His Holiness the Pope. I will certainly make amends in the future."

After some polite words, the seven ghosts left.

At this moment, Lingluan Douluo was secretly glad that he had been assigned to Shen An, and the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan was simply lying down and doing nothing.

Although Bibi Dong said she didn't care, she might have secretly written down all the mistakes of those seven people.

With this thought in mind, Lingluan Douluo couldn't help but look at Shen An, who resembled Yan Chixia.

'This Tenth Elder is indeed outstanding. He's young, but his cultivation is exceptional. I'm only a few decades older than him, so it wouldn't be bad if we could become partners.'

At this moment, only Bibi Dong, Shen An, and Ling Luan were in the vast Papal Palace.

The pope looked at Shen An and then smiled slightly: "Yan Chixia, you did very well. You are indeed worthy of being my confidant."

"In that case, I have another task for you. Over the next three months, you will travel to the Lower Four Sects to the Lower Three Sects on my behalf."

Bibi remembered the Black Tiger Sect, whose entire sect had been wiped out, so she changed her words.

Shen An looked over with a hint of doubt. Why go to the three lower sects?

"Now that Qibao and Landian are no longer obstacles, I intend to gather the soul master forces on the continent within three months."

"Although the three lower sects have long since submitted to the Spirit Hall, it would be better to show their strength and suppress them further."

"Yan Chixia, also tell them that in three months, the ranking of the upper three sects and the lower four sects will be re-established."

"In this way, the seven major sects will all be our forces. At that time, I will put the power of the Soul Masters group in the hands of the Spirit Hall."

"And this will be the beginning of my building a brand new empire and ascending the throne as emperor!"

"The great cause of the Martial Soul Empire begins with me!"

Bibi Dong's tone suddenly rose as she stood up, striking the ground with her scepter. Her eyes gleamed with an undisguised ambition.

Even the Spirit Phoenix Douluo couldn't help but submit to Bibi Dong's current aura.

'She wants to establish a kingdom and become empress. No way, I have to find a way to intercept her,' Shen An thought to himself.

Then he saw Bibi Dong staring at him expectantly, as if waiting for praise.

"His Holiness the Pope will surely unify the continent, reigning for millennia, and be the sole ruler of all time," Shen An said, his lips twitching as he echoed.

Bibi Dong nodded in satisfaction.

"Rest assured, when I become the emperor of the mortal realm, you two will be my greatest contributors and share in my glory." Bibi Dong generously painted a rosy picture.

-

That night,

In the Hall of Offerings, apart from Golden Crocodile Douluo who was temporarily staying at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the six Grand Masters engaged in a heated discussion.

They never expected that Bibi Dong would actually declare herself emperor. How could that be allowed? If anyone should be emperor, it should be Qian Renxue.

"Seniors, it's a perfect opportunity that Bibi Dong has asked me to visit the three lower sects."

"I am confident that I can make Xiaoxue use all the power of these three sects."

"When the seven major sects hold their re-election, the Spirit Hall will be at the height of its prestige. Then, we can have the seven major sects jointly petition for Xiaoxue to ascend the throne, catching Bibi Dong off guard."

Shen An smiled and said that Bibi Dong was too cautious. When the seven major sects were re-selected, the Spirit Hall was at its most prestigious, but she still wanted to take over the power of the folk spirit masters first.

Since that's the case, then he'll seize her foundation and disrupt Bibi Dong's base of operations.

Qian Daoliu nodded slightly. What Shen An said was excellent. The Martial Soul Hall should take the lead in re-electing the seven major sects, and then the seven major sects should jointly submit a petition to invite Qian Renxue to ascend the throne.

In this way, Bibi Dong could only watch helplessly. If she tried to stop it, she would suffer a backlash from the entire Spirit Hall.

At the moment when the palace was transformed into a country, everyone only cared about their future status, and no one cared whether the leader above them had changed.

Furthermore, the fact that the seven major sects stood together speaks volumes, doesn't it?

"The three lower sects have long been subservient to Bibi Dong. Can they be persuaded by you so easily?" Guangling Douluo asked doubtfully.

Shen An smiled slightly: "All the people in the world are driven by profit."

"Since Bibi Dong asked me to go down to the three major sects and show them my skills, it means that these three major sects are not absolutely loyal."

"As long as we have enough power, and we make a big promise—no, I mean a great commitment—they will naturally side with the stronger party."

All the worshippers nodded in agreement; when it came to power, the fist of their worship hall was the strongest.

Qian Daoliu also tossed over a token: "Although you are strong, they will not easily submit to you on your own. Show them this token, and they will naturally know who is behind you."

Shen An accepted it without ceremony. Although he was confident in his unparalleled combat power, he was definitely no match for Qian Daoliu, who had lived for hundreds of years, in terms of deterrence.

However, when the seven major sects re-select their representatives, another huge amount of fame points will be waiting for him, and he hasn't participated in the lottery for a long time.

-

The next day, Shen An set off for the Lower Three Sects with the cat and the mouse.

The three lower sects are now the Elephant Armor Sect, the Wind Sword Sect, and the Fire Leopard Sect. Their sect leaders are all Soul Douluo-level powerhouses, and some are even stronger than ordinary Title Douluos in certain areas.
