Douluo Dalu: Tiger Roars in the Universe

Chapter 226: Cleaning up the inside and killing the running dogs
Afterwards, the Xingluo Empire acted directly according to the previous plan. The first thing was to publicly announce to the entire continent that the new emperor of the Tiandou Empire, Xue Qinghe, was impersonated by the daughter of the previous Pope of the Spirit Hall, and even the way she impersonated was revealed.

The Spirit Hall possesses six inherited soul bones whose quality is infinitely close to the 100,000-year level. One of them has the ability of camouflage. The daughter of the former Pope of the Spirit Hall used the camouflage ability of that soul bone to successfully impersonate the Crown Prince Xue Qinghe. The real crown prince of the Tiandou Empire died more than ten years ago.

That's not all. Ever since Qian Renxue successfully impersonated Crown Prince Xue Qinghe and infiltrated the Tiandou royal family, it wasn't long before she killed the second and third princes one after another. As for the recent death of Emperor Xue Ye, it was also planned by Qian Renxue herself. Later, she was even planning to persecute Prince Xue Xing and Emperor Xue Ye's only surviving son Xue Beng. If Dugu Bo hadn't stepped in at the critical moment, all of Emperor Xue Ye's sons would have been murdered by Qian Renxue.

As soon as the Star Luo Empire made this announcement, the entire continent was in an uproar. The Tiandou Empire was of course the first to refute it, and pointedly stated that the Star Luo Empire wanted to overthrow the Tiandou Empire and it was completely untrustworthy.

Although the Tiandou Empire has vigorously denied this, most people with discerning eyes know the truth. They know that what the Xingluo Empire said is probably 80% true.

After Xue Qinghe inherited the throne, the relationship between him and the Spirit Hall became too close.

It's not that being close to the Spirit Hall is not okay. As an emperor, it is very normal to have a tendency to get close to a certain force. However, the key point is that Xue Qinghe's process of getting close to the Spirit Hall was too abrupt, and there was no buffer in between.

Logically speaking, no matter how inclined one is to get close to a certain force, there should be a process of development in between. However, Xue Qinghe's situation was different. As soon as he came to power, there was no process in between. He inexplicably became close friends with the Spirit Hall, and they even joined forces to encircle and suppress the two major sects.

In this situation, it is obvious that before Xue Qinghe became emperor, he had already been in contact with the Spirit Hall for a long time, but it was only exposed after he ascended the throne. Then the situation is very likely as announced by the Star Luo Empire. He is most likely impersonated by the daughter of the former Pope of the Spirit Hall.

After this suspicion arose, the Tiandou Empire suddenly became turbulent.

In the past, some forces within the Tiandou Empire were willing to support Xue Qinghe because he was the crown prince. However, if he was impersonated by someone from the Spirit Hall, the situation would be different.

There are also some forces that don't care who the crown prince or the emperor is. They are just wary of the Spirit Hall's big moves and don't want to be swallowed up by it, so some resistance has emerged.

Anyway, various situations were mixed together, making the situation inside the Tiandou Empire extremely chaotic. In this regard, the Spirit Hall had to help Qian Renxue to maintain the stability of the Tiandou Empire and suppress various resistance forces in the country.

In this situation, the Spirit Hall got involved, which made the Star Luo Empire's announcement more authentic. Although the Tiandou Empire officially stated that there was no problem with the emperor's identity, no one believed it.

It has basically been confirmed that Tiandou Emperor Xue Qinghe was impersonated by the daughter of the former Pope of the Spirit Hall.

For the Spirit Hall, they had finally brought the Heaven Dou Empire under their control, so naturally they wanted to make sure that the Heaven Dou Empire could be used stably. Therefore, during this period of time, most of the Spirit Hall's attention was still focused on the Heaven Dou Empire, and the Star Luo Empire could just take this opportunity to rectify its internal situation.

The first thing the Xing Luo Empire had to do was to eliminate the lackeys of the Spirit Hall in the country, and the first to be hit were the three of the lower four sects headed by the Holy Dragon Sect.

The lower four of the seven major sects can be said to be the most loyal lackeys of the Spirit Hall. If possible, they must be wiped out as soon as possible. That is why one of them, the Elephant Armor Sect, is not located in the Star Luo Empire, otherwise it would definitely be on the Star Luo Empire's elimination list.

The lower four sects are considered to be relatively powerful sects in the soul master world, second only to the upper three sects, so they have relatively many disciples. Basically, there are thousands of soul masters in each sect.

With such strength, if the Xing Luo Empire relied on itself alone, it would naturally have no problem annihilating them, but the losses would probably not be small, so in this case, it would be better to seek help from other forces, such as the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect that had just relocated.

The hatred between these two sects and the Spirit Hall can be said to be as deep as the sea, so they are also very concerned about the matter of encircling and wiping out the lackeys of the Spirit Hall. In addition, the Star Luo Empire promised them that they would give them the territories of the lackeys they wiped out, which made the two major sects agree with both hands and agreed without hesitation.

Therefore, the Xing Luo Empire directly handed over the two lackeys of the Spirit Hall to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect to deal with, while the Xing Luo Empire itself only had to deal with the Holy Dragon Sect, the leader of the three. Only having to deal with one sect did not put much pressure on the Xing Luo Empire, and it could deal with it calmly, ensuring their destruction while minimizing the losses it would suffer.

As for the other two, the Star Luo Empire believes that the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect can handle them perfectly. As for the Holy Dragon Sect, which is directly under the charge of the Star Luo Empire, it is more interesting to talk about.

The inherited martial spirit of the Holy Dragon Sect is the White-Armored Earth Dragon. I remember that when Dugu Yan and his friends formed the Fighting Spirit Team, they fought with the disciples of the Holy Dragon Sect, so they had some interactions with them.

Not only that, it was a coincidence that before the four single-attribute clans united to form the Siji Sect, the Poyi Clan's territory was in the same city as the Shenglong Sect. So in the past, the Poyi Clan had suffered a lot of oppression from the Shenglong Sect. When they heard that the Xingluo Empire was going to take action against the Shenglong Sect, Yang Wudi had already expressed his stance, saying that their Siji Sect was willing to do their part to wipe out the Shenglong Sect.

Of course, the Xing Luo Empire had no objection to this, as more forces would definitely be a good thing, so they agreed to the Four Extreme Sect's request and, while they were already prepared to encircle and suppress the Holy Dragon Sect, they also added troops from the Four Extreme Sect.

Including the personnel from the Four Extreme Sect, the Star Luo Empire has assembled nearly five thousand soul masters this time. Although it cannot compare with the previous encirclement and suppression of the two major sects by the Spirit Hall, it is still very impressive.

Five thousand spirit masters were sent to encircle and suppress the Holy Dragon Sect, which had just over a thousand people and no Titled Douluo yet. This was already a great respect for the Holy Dragon Sect.
