Douluo: Law of Heaven and Earth

Chapter 745 Two years have passed in a flash! Li Ai is desperate!
In the blink of an eye.

Two years passed quickly.

Zhou Qing, Tang San, and Xiao Wu also officially graduated from Notting Junior College, but——

They are still students + teachers of Notting Junior College, but most of their time is spent on building their power.

But even so, under the joint planning of Zhou Qing, Tang San and others, Notting College developed in an orderly manner.

Two years later, many soul masters with strength at the Soul Master level or above joined Notting College.

To the outside world, it is already a real intermediate soul master academy, but this intermediate soul master academy also has the responsibilities of a primary soul master academy, and the teaching method is also different from that of most soul master academies. In addition to martial soul training, students also need to study the cultural courses compiled by Zhou Qing. If they fail the cultural courses, they cannot graduate successfully.

After graduation, most students will stay or return to their hometowns to transform and practice the ideas taught by Zhou Qing.

Of course, during this process, there must be people who just want to learn more profound methods of cultivation.

But that doesn't matter.

But for Zhou Qing, as long as someone is willing to change and make some changes to the Douluo Continent, it would be good.

In addition, we will recruit more talents to build a new Holy Soul Village together, making the Holy Soul Village better than before.

However, in the past two years, various remarks against Zhou Qing and others have appeared in the outside world, especially in places farther away from Holy Soul Village, Notting City, Falling Star City and surrounding areas.

Such as:
What Zhou Qing and others established was actually an evil group of degenerates!
The people in Holy Soul Village and Notting City are all Fallen!
Does any of this sound outrageous?

It must be outrageous.

But there are always people who believe it.

However, in the villages and towns on both sides of the road at the junction of the two empires, except for some nobles, most people believed in Zhou Qing and others.

The reason is simple?
Opening up roads, building water conservancy projects, establishing transportation and markets, and building schools gave children without innate soul power the opportunity to learn knowledge and exercise their bodies.

But it was Zhou Qing and others who were doing it!
Who do civilians trust?

There is only one answer.

Zhou Qing?

Tang San?

neither.

But -

The power established by Zhou Qing and his partners!
Perhaps, ordinary civilians are indeed more cowardly, but that doesn't mean we can stop treating them as human beings.

The Tiandou Empire does not treat them as leeks.

But Zhou Qing really treated them as his own people.

"Fools! A bunch of fools!"

Li Ai was furious when she found out that her methods were useless and instead made the civilians closer to Zhou Qing and his gang.

Two years ago, he, Li Ai, accepted the order from Emperor Xue Ye and secretly targeted Zhou Qing and others.

To the outside world, slander.

There is no doubt that this works.

But not big.

The locals still go their own way and trust Zhou Qing, Tang San and others who sincerely want to give them a good life.

In fact, Li Ai did think about starting from the inside and breaking up the forces established by Zhou Qing and others. But Zhou Qing and others were united in their determination to do so, which was nothing but a pipe dream. Instead, some spies and undercovers from other empires and forces that already existed inside were willing to contact Li Ai in order to gain benefits later, or to prepare for future plans.

As for the group of people who controlled the power, Zhou Qing, Tang San, Romantina, Xiao Wu, Wang Sheng, Bu Yi, Xiao Lan and the other young men and women trained by them, were as solid as a rock. No matter how hard he tried, it was difficult to achieve any results.

"Those rubbish under my command are useless. I have to take action myself."

Li Ai realized that if this continued, Zhou Qing's power would grow again.

In the past two years, the Xiangjia Sect, one of the four lower sects, has also had frequent dealings with Zhou Qing.

Build civil engineering projects, dig mountains and carve caves.

Even after Huyan Zhen broke through to the Titled Douluo level, he still let his grandson, Huyan Li, and some of the disciples of the Elephant Armor Sect stay in the Holy Soul Village to work as laborers for Zhou Qing.

He even received news that Zhou Qing and Tang San had finished their basic tasks and would go to Gengxin City in the Xing Luo Empire within the next month to visit Lou Gao and cooperate with him.

Li Ai didn't know much about Gengxin City. He only knew that it was a city built on a plain with rich mineral resources and was known as the City of Blacksmiths.

But he knew that Lou Gao, the legendary master craftsman, was only interested in forging...
But Tang San was also a master forger. In the past two years, he had forged many excellent works, and his skills were known to the outside world as a miracle.

If Lou Gao values ​​talent and is willing to cooperate with him——

Li Ai could already imagine the future: the large group of civilians led by Zhou Qing, Tang San, Romantina and others would not be holding hoes and shovels, but would be wearing sophisticated armor and holding sharp spears.

There are even rumors that Tang San from the Holy Soul Village is still researching soul-guided weapons!
In other words, Li Ai cannot find absolute evidence at present. Otherwise, based on this point alone, he can report to Emperor Xue Ye and directly send the Tiandou Royal Knights to cause trouble for the Holy Soul Village!
Would it be too serious to send down the Royal Knights?
But Zhou Qing and others are soul masters!
Moreover, he is a soul master who can fight above his level, so no matter how rigorous he is, it is not too much!

Besides.

Will the Xing Luo Empire also attack the Holy Soul Village, or will it establish a cooperative relationship?

It is also an unknown.

But this kind of matter is not something he, a civil servant, should consider. It would be better to let the senior officials of the Tiandou Empire handle it.

Li Aike was unwilling to place his hopes on the enemy countries of the Tiandou Empire, so he had to take the initiative.

first step.

He went straight to Nottingham and dismissed Romanak from his position as mayor without any explanation.

The second step.

Increase agricultural taxes on surrounding villages.

That's right.

This is the move of Emperor Xue Ye!
Li Ai finally understood why Xue Ye was the emperor of Tiandou and he was just a subject.

It turns out that's the gap!

The simpler the trick, the more effective it is!
On the contrary, all my hard work for two years was completely useless!
In fact, it is not completely useless.

At the very least, his tactics made the local people more trusting of Zhou Qing, and even indirectly helped him find members in his faction whose wills were not so firm.

After all, even with Romantina around, it is hard to read people's minds, but if people act secretly in private, they cannot escape her mental detection.

Therefore, whether in Holy Soul Village and the surrounding villages, or in Notting City, all undercover agents and spies have been marked, and members with weak beliefs have also been marked:
Then test them -

Zhou Qing once said that human hearts can never withstand any test.

So just mark it and keep an eye out, just in case.
