Douluo: My martial spirit is Xuanyuan Xia Yujian
Chapter 338 People’s hearts are broken
The duel between Hu Liena and Dugu Yan was not hidden from everyone. In the sight of both armies, the two of them used their own methods and fought a fierce battle in full view of everyone.
The result is self-evident. Hu Liena was defeated and tried to escape, but was stopped and eventually taken prisoner.
Ju Douluo and Ghost Douluo failed to rescue effectively and were also captured.
At this point, the three Titled Douluo who came to the Spirit Hall to resist the attack of the Heaven Dou Empire were all defeated, the morale of the Spirit Empire army plummeted, and some were defeated or surrendered. The Spirit Empire, which had been established for less than two years, collapsed, and all the territories that originally belonged to the kingdoms and duchies of the Heaven Dou Empire were taken back, and the original kingdoms and duchies were abolished and directly became provinces under central management.
There were also a number of principalities and kingdoms in the Xingluo Empire that joined the Wuhun Empire. When the empire collapsed, the Xingluo Empire took advantage of the situation and took back some of the kingdoms and principalities.
But the offensive of the Tiandou Empire did not stop. The army directly entered the territory of the Xingluo Empire, captured two kingdoms, and turned them into provinces of the Tiandou Empire.
Then the Tiandou Empire took a temporary break, and the armies of the two countries confronted each other on the front line.
Star Luo City.
boom!
Dai Tianfeng angrily smashed the jade seal in his hand to the ground, "What is the Tiandou Empire going to do? The two countries joined forces to defeat the Wuhun Empire, and they didn't stop, and dared to invade my Xingluo Empire? Are they going to tear up the alliance and start a war?"
The ministers in the hall had different thoughts and no one spoke.
Isn't it obvious what the Tiandou Empire wants to do? With its invincible military force, how can it be on equal footing with you?
Not to mention that the Xuanyuan Emperor of the Tiandou Empire and the Xingluo Empire still have a deep feud, and he has the motive to destroy the Xingluo Empire.
As for the alliance between the two parties?
That was even more of a joke. Although they had joined forces to fight against the Spirit Hall before, that was also done through the Haotian Sect, and the Xingluo Empire did not contribute much and did not play any role. Not to mention that the Haotian Sect had broken up with the Tiandou Empire, and Tang Hao and Tang Chen were killed one after another. Wasn't it ridiculous to mention the dream agreement?
As for this alliance to deal with the Wuhun Empire, it is even more funny.
It was obvious that the Xingluo Empire took advantage of the Tiandou Empire's defeat of the Wuhun Empire and took back the kingdoms and duchies that had originally surrendered to the Xingluo Empire.
The Tiandou Empire worked so hard to defeat the Wuhun Empire, how could it be possible for the Xingluo Empire to snatch the benefits? It would be strange if they didn't come to fight you.
The hall was unusually gloomy, with Dai Mubai and Davis standing in the front row. Dai Mubai's face was heavy, while Davis showed a mocking, neurotic smile.
Dai Tianfeng was furious when he saw Davis' smile, and said coldly: "Davis, what are you so happy about? Are you happy that the Tiandou Empire is coming to attack our Xingluo Empire? Don't forget that you are the eldest prince of the Xingluo Empire. If the nest is overturned, there will be no eggs left intact. If the Xingluo Empire is destroyed, you will not have a good ending either."
Davis bowed perfunctorily and said without much respect: "Your Majesty, I am wondering how this long-lasting, world-shaking war was initiated. Shouldn't the people who caused all this be held responsible? If our country was destroyed, it was caused by Dai Mubai, and it has nothing to do with me."
Dai Mubai's face darkened and he said coldly: "The Tiandou Empire is ambitious and has the heart to unify the continent. Who can't see that? What does this have to do with me?"
"Why is it none of your business?"
Davis sneered and said, "I don't know whether the Tiandou Empire has the intention to unify the continent, but this war was caused by you."
Dai Mubai said: "Don't spit blood at me. I don't have the ability to start a war between the two countries."
Davis sneered, "It has nothing to do with you? If you hadn't gone to the Tiandou Empire and arrogantly destroyed Canghui College for personal grudges, would you have aroused the anger of those women?"
"Don't you know that women are petty, vindictive, and emotional? Before that, the Tiandou Empire showed no signs of starting a war. Emperor Xuanyuan was not in the country, so those women would not meddle in other people's business. It was you who rushed to provoke them and attracted their attention."
"And then Tang San, still not knowing how to live or die, went on to destroy Blazing Academy to avenge his personal vengeance. You knew that Huo Wu, the daughter of the president of Blazing Academy, was Xuanyuan Qingli's wife, yet you still tried to provoke her. What was the result?"
"Then Tang San and Tang Xiao were blocked in Blazing Fire City. If Tang Chen hadn't stepped in, Tang Xiao would have died at that time."
"It would have been fine if Tang Chen hadn't stepped in. But as soon as he stepped in, he tried to kill those women in Tiandou Palace. This aroused their great murderous intent, and they joined forces to kill Tang Chen and Tang Xiao at all costs."
"Then the Empire was involved in the cause of this incident. The Haotian Sect and the Xingluo Empire are allies. Now the Haotian Sect's headquarters is in the Xingluo Empire. No matter how you look at it, the Empire is a participant. Isn't it normal for them to attack you out of revenge?"
Davis's speech caused many ministers to talk about it.
Except for a few people, most people don’t know about these things, or at least they don’t know them in such a comprehensive and detailed way.
"So, it is really the Third Prince and Tang San and the others who caused this series of events out of personal revenge, and even Tang Xiao and Tang Chen, the grandfather and grandson, were involved? Our Xing Luo Empire has suffered an unprovoked disaster, and the Third Prince should be held responsible for this."
An official who was against Dai Mubai immediately began to point the finger at Dai Mubai.
"That's right. The Third Prince hasn't even become the Crown Prince yet, but he has already caused a devastating disaster to the empire. If he becomes the Crown Prince, won't he cause the empire to fall?"
More officials followed suit, talking about it and criticizing Dai Mubai, Tang San and others.
They are not necessarily all opponents of Dai Mubai, they are just a part of the people.
A considerable number of people are afraid of the Tiandou Empire and want to push Dai Mubai out as a scapegoat to appease the anger of the Tiandou Empire.
There are also some officials who truly believe that Dai Mubai brought disaster to the empire and should be held responsible.
"Your Majesty, I believe that peace is the most important thing. The Empire should ask for peace from the Tiandou Empire to avoid war between the two countries and the loss of lives."
An official said with a righteous look on his face.
The Luo family's ancestor, Marshal Luo, sneered, "You're asking for peace before the fight even starts. Where's the dignity of the empire? My Xingluo Empire has been suppressing the Tiandou Empire. How can we not dare to fight because of the pressure from a few women? If we ask for peace now, we don't know what price we will have to pay."
The official was Prime Minister Wang Huizhi. He was not afraid of Marshal Luo and sneered, "Marshal Luo, I know you have a grudge against the Tiandou Empire. Your dandy grandson was indeed killed by Emperor Xuanyuan, but haven't you killed enough people from the Tiandou Empire? What qualifications do you have to hate them? Aren't you afraid that you will become part of the price? Why, when it's your turn to contribute to the empire, you start to act so righteously? Why don't you consider His Majesty and the empire's destiny?" "You..."
Marshal Luo was furious and wanted to take action without any hesitation.
"That's enough. This is the court, not a place for you to fight."
Dai Tianfeng scolded Marshal Luo with a dark face, and said coldly: "If we go to ask for peace now, will the Tiandou Empire agree? Those women don't seem to be easy to talk to."
Wang Huizhi said: "Your Majesty, this will require the Empire to pay a price. The main instigator of this war was the Haotian Sect. It was Tang San who insisted on destroying the Blazing Fire Academy, which aroused Huo Wu's hatred, so they chased Tang Xiao. Later, Tang Chen wanted to kill them to avenge his grandson, which led to them killing Tang Chen in return and taking their anger out on the Empire. Therefore, all this was caused by the Haotian Sect, and we don't have to take the blame for the Haotian Sect. We only need to hand over the Haotian Sect and return all the territories that originally belonged to the Wuhun Empire to the Tiandou Empire. I think we should be able to calm their anger."
Wang Huizhi's words immediately aroused a crowd of approval. The official who had previously criticized Dai Mubai was named Jia Daquan, and he added: "Your Majesty, after all, the Third Prince was involved in this matter. If you want to truly calm the other party's anger, the Third Prince should also be punished."
Dai Mubai was furious, his eyes were like knives, slashing at Jia Daquan fiercely.
Jia Daquan was not afraid. He was originally sent by the eldest prince. He had offended Dai Mubai badly in the past. Now he wanted to turn around and join Dai Mubai but was humiliated. From then on, he became the vanguard of opposition to Dai Mubai.
If he doesn't get rid of the third prince, Jia Daquan will have no good life in the future. If he lets the third prince become emperor, he will die without a burial place.
Dai Tianfeng said: "Mu Bai is my only remaining son, the future crown prince and emperor, how can I punish him? There is no need to talk about this matter anymore. As for Haotian Sect, Tang Chen and Tang Xiao are dead, and the remaining five Titled Douluo are also very powerful. We have no way to hand them over."
The implication was that he had no objection to handing over the Haotian Sect. If peace could be achieved, the Haotian Sect would be sacrificed. But the key was that they could not capture the people of the Haotian Sect and hand them over!
Hearing Dai Tianfeng's words, Davis' eyes flashed with resentment. He was still alive and well, but in Dai Tianfeng's eyes, he had been expelled from the ranks of his sons? In Dai Tianfeng's eyes, he was as good as dead?
"Okay, okay, I want to see who dies first."
Davis thought resentfully.
Prime Minister Wang Huizhi said: "Even so, we should send an envoy to make our attitude clear. First of all, we must cut ties with the Haotian Sect and never let the Tiandou Empire think that we are on the same side as the Haotian Sect."
Dai Tianfeng asked: "Who is willing to be the envoy?"
No one among the ministers answered. Wang Huizhi sneered in his heart and said, "Your Majesty, since no one is willing to go as an envoy, I am willing to go."
Dai Tianfeng sighed: "Strong winds reveal strong grass, and turbulent times reveal loyal ministers. You are truly a loyal minister!"
After the court was dismissed, Wang Huizhi went to the border of the empire to ask for peace, while the other officials continued to do their own things.
When Dai Mubai returned home, Ma Hongjun, Oscar and others saw that he looked gloomy and surrounded him to ask him what was wrong.
Dai Mubai told Yu Tianheng what happened in the court. Yu Tianheng said coldly, "Now the Emperor has not agreed to hand you over, but if the Tiandou Empire puts pressure on you, it's hard to say. In other words, when the pressure is great enough, you will almost certainly be handed over to appease the other party's anger."
Dai Mubai's face turned pale, and he said in a trembling voice: "I don't have any deep hatred with those women. They won't kill me, right? Just for Canghui College?"
Yu Tianheng said: "In fact, I think that handing over the Haotian Sect is the most foolish thing to do. The enemy is already powerful, and we should concentrate all our strength to deal with them. How can we sell out our allies just for the sake of temporary peace? This is tantamount to cutting meat to feed the tiger. Even if you feed the tiger for a while, the price is that you will become weaker. When the tiger comes again, you will not even have the strength to resist."
Dai Mubai said, "It's like drinking poison to quench thirst. There's nothing we can do about it. We're almost out of power now, so who cares about the future? The Tiandou Empire is too strong. Even the once invincible Tang Chen was killed by them, and even Emperor Xuanyuan didn't do anything. There is no force or person in the world who can contend with them. Even if the Haotian Sect is added, how much effect can it have? The five elders combined, not to mention Tang Chen, I'm afraid they can't even beat Tang Xiao. The Xingluo Empire is now living one day at a time, and its fate of extinction is almost certain."
Yu Tianheng's eyes flashed, and he suddenly said: "Your Highness, since the empire is doomed to perish, you have to think more about the future. The prince and the emperor are all empty titles. If the empire is gone, who will care about these titles?"
Dai Mubai's eyes flashed, and he said expressionlessly: "You mean..."
Yu Tianheng said calmly: "That's what you mean. I can help you contact my aunt. Of course, you can also contact Xiao Zhufei. Although there is no actual entanglement between you, you did have some relationship back then. Strictly speaking, she is still your cousin."
Dai Mubai looked gloomy and coldly looked at Yu Tianheng, "Do you want to defect? Do you think the Xingluo Empire ship is going to sink, and want to switch to a bigger and better ship? I never thought that I would treat you as a brother, but you would be the first one to betray me."
Yu Tianheng said calmly, "Don't say such harsh words. I have never been your subject, nor am I from the Xing Luo Empire. Since I have no obligation to be loyal to you, how can I be considered a betrayal? I just want to go home."
Dai Mubai sneered, "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking, but do you think others will accept you if you defect? Don't forget, you pursued Dugu Yan in the past. You are the love rival of Emperor Xuanyuan. Why do you think others won't just kill you?"
Yu Tianheng said, "I did pursue Empress Dugu, but that was a long time ago. A gentleman always seeks a beautiful lady. There were countless people who pursued Empress Dugu, which only proves how outstanding she was. And she chose Emperor Xuanyuan among so many people, which just proves her vision and the excellence of Emperor Xuanyuan. Why should I worry? Nothing happened between Empress Dugu and me, I gave up long ago, and my aunt is also a royal concubine, how could Emperor Xuanyuan care about such a small matter? I also pursued Xiaowei, didn't you tolerate me?"
Dai Mubai said: "Even so, is there still room for you in the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Sect? The current young leader is Yu Tianxin, your opponent back then. And your parents and grandfather all died at the hands of the Spirit Hall, but the Spirit Hall and the Heaven Dou Empire were in collusion, and the Spirit Empire was destroyed, and those elders just stood by and watched. Do you still want revenge?"
Yu Tianheng was silent for a long time, with pain in his eyes and veins on his hands exposed. After a while, he calmed down and regained his calm expression: "So what? Even if the Spirit Hall surrendered to the Heaven Dou Empire, it doesn't mean that I can't take revenge. When I cultivate to become a Titled Douluo, I will naturally get back at those who attacked me back then. As for the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Sect, it is now in decline and needs talents. I will not compete with Yu Tianxin anymore. What reason do they have to shut me out?"
Dai Mubai laughed sarcastically, "Wait for you to become a Titled Douluo and take revenge. I think it's better to do nothing and wait for time to take revenge for you. Under the influence of time, a Titled Douluo must die."
However, he despised Yu Tianheng for not being able to become a Titled Douluo, and he had already given up hope of revenge. The so-called becoming a Titled Douluo and then taking revenge was just a fig leaf for himself.
Yu Tianheng's expression turned very cold, without any warmth, "Whatever you say. If you don't want to listen to my advice, that's fine. I just hope that when you are about to die, you won't blame me for not helping you."
After saying that, Yu Tianheng walked straight outside.
"Boss Dai..."
Ma Hongjun, Oscar, Jing Ling, and Huang Yuan all looked at Dai Mubai with complicated expressions. The ship of the Xingluo Empire was destined to sink. Shouldn't they also think about their way out?
"Brother Tianheng, come back first, and let's have a good chat."
Seeing Yu Tianheng about to walk out of the door, Dai Mubai finally couldn't help but call him. (End of this chapter)
