Douluo: Peerless Sky Eye Yuhao
Chapter 441 The gods have their own plans
After Shrek and his group returned, the defenders and civilians of Yuming City were still cheering for repelling the enemy's attack.
Without attracting the attention of most people, the group returned to the hotel.
When Xu Jiujiu and Nebula Douluo arrived, they saw a group of elders with solemn expressions, and Huo Yuhao, who was sitting on the sofa with a weak breath.
Xu Jiujiu, who didn't understand what was going on, was startled. He walked forward and asked, "What's the situation?"
"I failed to kill him." Wang Qiuer folded her arms across her chest, leaned against the wall, and said in a cold tone.
He looked at her for a long time and thought to himself what a pity.
"May I ask all the seniors, who is the evil soul master who secretly controls the magic circle?" As Xu Jiujiu's personal bodyguard, Nebula Douluo saluted respectfully to Old Song and the others.
But a scene that surprised Nebula Douluo and Xu Jiujiu happened. The elders did not reply, but all looked at Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao took a deep breath and looked up at the two of them: "I want to see His Majesty."
Xu Jiujiu was stunned for a moment, frowned and asked: "I can take you to the palace to find my brother, but I want to know what happened?"
Huo Yuhao said in a serious tone, “The evil soul master who secretly controlled the magic array was the leader of the Holy Spirit Sect, Zhongli Wu. We had already surrounded him and were about to kill him, but he was saved by the Saint Lord of the Abyss.”
Abyss… Xu Jiujiu didn’t react at first, but suddenly, her pupils contracted violently, and information about the abyss flooded into her brain. She said in horror: "Saint Lord of the Abyss?"
"That being whose cultivation is comparable to that of a god?"
“It’s him.” Huo Yuhao endured the pain and stood up. His eyes were cold as he said, “The abyss is invading the sea. I guess it’s all chaos over there, but I think it’s only a matter of time before it’s all chaos on land.”
"As the strongest being in the Abyss Plane, the Abyss Saint King has been able to break through the plane barrier, release the projection, and forcibly take Zhongli Wu away. This means that his real body is not far from our Douluo Continent. I even suspect that if it weren't for the restrictions between planes, he would have already arrived. But in any case, a disaster that can destroy Douluo Continent is about to come."
Xu Jiujiu's breathing tightened, realizing the seriousness of the problem: "Then we will set off immediately to return to Xingluo City. By the way, Yuhao, are you okay?"
“It’s okay.” Huo Yuhao waved his hand.
Elder Song stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "The rest of the elders and priests of the Holy Spirit Church are missing, and we have not met them, so the others will not leave Yuming City for the time being. I will follow you to Xingluo City."
"Okay." Xu Jiujiu looked serious.
It came quietly and left quietly. The matter of the abyss did not spread to Yuming City, nor did it disturb the joy in the city.
Under the leadership of Elder Song, Huo Yuhao and his group quickly rushed back to Xingluo City.
……
"I'm afraid that Zhongli Wu's position has been exposed and he is being hunted down by those people from Shrek Academy."
After returning to the Mingdou Mountain Range base, Fire Phoenix Douluo and the other offering Douluos were all in the commander's tent, and everyone was looking at Orange who had his back to them.
At this moment, she was reading the military intelligence sent by Xu Tianyuan, the leader of the Imperial Dragon Soul Instructor Group.
When this matter was mentioned, Starry Sky Douluo was filled with indignation. "If the Shrek people really went to hunt them down, it would be a good thing. This damn evil spirit master is really untrustworthy. There was no large-scale uproar in Yuming City. Those legion commanders came to ask this worshiper several times. How should I answer them? They said that the bodies of the dead soldiers had been handed over, but the evil spirit master stood them up?"
Inside the commander's tent, the faces of the top brass turned more or less ugly because of this sentence.
"I'll give them an explanation."
Juzi turned around, glanced at everyone, and suddenly smiled: "Xu Tianyuan sent a message saying that they have arrived in Xingyun City."
"Nebula City?"
Everyone looked at each other in confusion.
On the contrary, Fire Phoenix Douluo suddenly widened his eyes a little, quickly came to the map, and looked at it, his eyes suddenly brightened: "Good, good, good, Xu Tianyuan is really a good operator."
Starry Sky Douluo asked hurriedly: "Is there anything special about Nebula City?"
Fire Phoenix Douluo smiled as he explained, "Nebula City is one of Xingluo City's satellite cities, located ninety kilometers south of Xingluo City. In other words, their three Beast King-level Soul Instructor Groups are less than a hundred kilometers away from the capital of the Xingluo Empire."
Hearing this, everyone present suddenly felt a sense of surprise.
The distance of less than one hundred kilometers is as close as it can be for these three soul guide teams equipped with the empire's most powerful soul guide devices.
However, it also indirectly shows that the Xingluo Empire devoted itself to the defense of Yuming City and indeed neglected the supervision of the southern border.
"Seeing that they are about to make a contribution, I don't know why, but I feel a little uncomfortable." Fire Phoenix Douluo joked, "As the old saying goes, I am afraid that my brothers will suffer, and I am also afraid that my brothers will become rich."
"Hahaha."
Everyone laughed in unison, diluting the shadow of the Holy Spirit Church having stood them up.
Juzi put away the letter and said with a faint smile: "Delaying Yuming City is also a great achievement, and His Majesty will reward you generously."
No one objected to this point, but nodded silently to show their agreement.
Juzi's smile faded, and he said in a deep voice, "Since Xu Tianyuan and his men have already arrived in Xingyun City, it means they are ready to decapitate the Xingluo royal family. Listen to my orders. Tomorrow morning, launch a full-scale attack on Yuming City. My only request is that you make as much noise as possible."
"As ordered."
Everyone spoke loudly.
...
Zhongli Wu felt dizzy and opened his eyes with difficulty. He suddenly woke up and the soul power in his body surged wildly. However, the pain in his meridians made him gasp.
"woke up?"
A plain female voice came from not far away.
Zhongli Wu endured the pain that remained in his body after releasing Blood Escape and being attacked by Old Song, and looked forward.
This was a not-so-big room, with dim lights, making the dark red carpet on the floor look like dried blood. The walls were flat and clean, but there were no windows, and the air was unusually not turbid like that of a closed space, but rather very fresh.
At the long table, a woman in a brown robe was grinding something, but the words were exactly what she said.
Seeing the woman, Zhongli Wu's eyes flashed with surprise, and he saluted quickly and respectfully: "Mother."
The woman did not reply and continued to grind. Zhongli Wu stood up and stepped forward: "Mother, you saved me?"
Ye Xishui stopped grinding and poured the powder into a bowl of water. Then he turned around, looked at Zhongli Wu with deep eyes, and handed over the bowl: "Drink it."
Zhongli Wu didn't hesitate at all, he picked up the bowl and drank it all in one gulp.
His body became extremely warm and all the pain disappeared in an instant. A hint of surprise flashed across Zhongli Wu's eyes.
Seeing him drink it, Ye Xishui turned around silently and asked, "What happened?"
Zhongli Wu's face was gloomy as he recounted his experiences. At the end, his tone became serious:
"Mother, the elders and the priests in the church have all disappeared mysteriously. I couldn't find any trace of them even with the help of the death spiral formation. It's as if they disappeared in Douluo Continent. There is no sign of survival."
Ye Xishui said calmly, "I remember you once said that in that flower sea space, Moon's disciple summoned the undead. This time, a group of Shrek people suddenly found your location and chased you. What is the connection between them? Guess."
Zhongli Wu's expression suddenly changed, and he blurted out: "Was it that little bastard who moved Feng Ling and the others away?"
Ye Xishui said calmly: "You have to remember that from today on, they are no longer elders or worshippers of the Holy Spirit Church."
Zhongli Wu exuded a gloomy aura. He understood what his mother meant. It was simply that these elders and priests would most likely surrender to Huo Yuhao in order to save their lives.
"In the next period of time, you will practice with your Uncle Long, and strive to break through to the Limit Douluo as soon as possible. The godhood is not for show." Ye Xishui's tone became stern.
"My son understands."
Zhongli Wu was already afraid of his mother, so he quickly agreed.
"Go ahead." Zhongli Wu originally wanted to continue asking who the owner of the hand that saved him was, but Ye Xishui seemed to have guessed it and directly asked him to drive him away.
Zhongli Wu opened his mouth and respectfully left the room.
boom.
The sound of a door closing was heard.
In the small room, a vortex quietly condensed, and a slightly lazy voice sounded: "If I were you, I would devour this so-called son and enjoy the throne of God alone."
Ye Xishui said coldly: "Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. Although I'm not a good person, I also understand these principles. Let's stop talking nonsense. How long will it take for you to come?"
"It should be soon. Remember to find suitable space nodes, as many as possible. Oh, and happy cooperation." A faint laugh echoed in the room, and the vortex dissipated quietly again.
Ye Xishui remained silent, but sneered in his heart.
You are plotting against me, but little do you know that I am also plotting against you.
When natural disasters occur, the God of Disaster appears!
Those gods who are high above have their own plans.
...
Xingluo City, as the largest city in the Xingluo Empire, is a place where travelers and merchants from all over the world merge with the locals, giving rise to many stories, and everything seems to be thriving.
Shouts, laughter, the aroma of delicious food, and the clatter of horse hooves through the streets create a lively daily picture.
Yuming City is in a state of war, but Xingluo City is not.
But compared to the hustle and bustle of the outer city and the inner city, the atmosphere in the palace was a little stagnant.
Royal study room.
Xu Jiawei listened to the story of Huo Yuhao and his group with a worried look on his face.
It was already annoying and troublesome enough that the Sun-Moon Empire declared war on them, but who knew that the Abyss Saint Lord, who was more threatening than the Sun-Moon Empire, would appear.
No matter how cruel the Sun-Moon Empire was, that was a matter between humans. As for the Abyss, any dog passing by would be slapped twice, the earthworms in the soil would be cut into four pieces horizontally, and the eggs in the house would be shaken apart.
Oh, no, it should be the abyss that passes by, and not a single hair will be left.
"Royal brother, please issue the edict as soon as possible and inform the world, otherwise it will be too late." Xu Jiujiu was more anxious than Xu Jiawei. He shook his royal brother's arm and said repeatedly.
"Girl, how could your royal brother not know the seriousness of this matter?" Xu Jiawei patted Xu Jiujiu's hand and signaled her to calm down.
Xu Jiujiu knew the limits and quickly returned to sit on the sofa.
"I wonder what your hospital's plan is?" Xu Jiawei asked Huo Yuhao and his group in a deep voice.
Elder Song spoke first, saying, "Elder Mu has already alerted the Tianhun Empire and the Douling Empire. Currently, both royal families have taken action. Every day and night, soul masters will patrol remote rivers and mountains, and try to investigate those sparsely populated areas."
"When the abyss first appeared, it was in a sparsely populated area. We were worried that they would hide and gather together. Otherwise, by the time we discovered them, it would be too late."
As she spoke, she sighed, "The abyss is secretive by nature. Apart from this method, we can't think of any other way."
Everyone nodded silently. This was the most difficult point to deal with. You knew the abyss would come, but you didn’t know where it would come from. It was an obvious threat.
"After all, Douluo Continent is too big. Even if there are soul masters patrolling, it is difficult to cover everything."
At this time, Huo Yuhao interrupted, attracting everyone's attention, and said:
"If they gather from the wild and start to spread and devour, the first ones to suffer will be the villages or towns in the remote areas. It is difficult for us to take care of these places. We are afraid that the abyss has slaughtered them all without us knowing. So, Your Majesty, you can issue an edict to let the people in the villages or towns leave, or at least move to places with more people."
Xu Jiujiu frowned and said, "But the cost of doing so is too high. I don't think it will be successful. After all, the transfer of people involves a huge amount of financial expenditure and whether these people are willing to leave. Moreover, the abyss is too horrifying, and I'm sure many people will not believe it."
Huo Yuhao agreed with what he said and nodded: "You are right, this aspect needs to be taken into consideration."
"In addition, I also suggest that, starting immediately, any city with a population of more than 100,000 people should start increasing their grain storage. If the abyss arrives, farming will become a hassle. Of course, we can't rush to increase grain storage, lest it cause merchants to drive up prices, causing a sharp increase in grain prices among the people and causing unrest."
The larger the city, the less food people tend to store. On the contrary, families in remote areas tend to store a lot of food.
This involves a special point of Douluo Continent.
Let me put it this way, the grain yield in Douluo Continent is incredibly high.
No matter whether it is rice or wheat.
This is true of all four empires.
In addition, the weather was good every year. Except for ordinary people whose food was relatively monotonous and they could only eat meat once a month, it was rare to hear of anyone starving to death in an ordinary family.
But as to why there are still bandits escaping into the mountains and beggars begging on the roadside, that involves the issue of the nobility.
Although the land is vast and the yield is high, most of it does not belong to the common people.
The issue of grain circulation depends mainly on the wishes of the nobles.
Huo Yuhao continued to speak, and Xu Jiawei listened to the entire thing, memorizing it meticulously.
Speaking of which, the outbreak of the war gave Xu Jiawei a reasonable excuse to store grain.
Finally, after Huo Yuhao finished giving a few suggestions, Xu Jiawei immediately signaled Xu Jiujiu to call the Prime Minister and other high-ranking officials of the empire to discuss the matter.
After Xu Jiujiu left, Xu Jiawei looked concerned and asked, "Yuhao, I noticed that your breathing is a little disordered, are you injured?"
“Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. It’s just a small matter.” Huo Yuhao said with a smile.
"Being injured is no small matter. I will immediately ask His Majesty the Medical Immortal Douluo to heal you." Upon hearing this, Xu Jiawei could no longer sit still. He quickly picked up the communication soul guide and started to call for help.
Huo Yuhao paused, and seeing that he was so serious, he did not refuse.
"You don't need to go to Yuming City. After you rest up, find some time to visit Le Xuan and the others." Old Song said jokingly.
Huo Yuhao scratched his head. He really thought so.
After accompanying his girlfriends to deal with the scattered evil soul masters of the Holy Spirit Church, he planned to look for other hundred thousand year soul beasts that could quickly improve his cultivation.
Wang Qiuer smiled and said, "That's just right. During your recuperation period, you can accompany me to eat some local delicacies. I never know when I will be rescued."
Huo Yuhao complained, "Why did you become a foodie?"
Wang Qiuer said righteously: "I can tolerate it when I haven't eaten it before, but who can tolerate it now that I have eaten it?"
Huo Yuhao nodded repeatedly: "Okay, you convinced me."
"Hey." Wang Qiuer chuckled.
Xu Jiawei looked at the two of them with great interest, and occasionally couldn't help sighing in his heart. If he had known this would happen, he should have let Jiujiu go to Shrek Academy to practice.
Wouldn't it be wonderful if I could find such a brother-in-law?
cough cough.
As for Mr. Song, he had a strange expression on his face as he watched the two people having such an intimate conversation.
She knows Wang Qiuer's true identity.
"Oh, Yuhao, don't forget to check." Old Song suddenly remembered something and quickly sent a voice message to remind Huo Yuhao.
"Yeah." Huo Yuhao narrowed his eyes and nodded. (End of this chapter)
