People in Douluo, the mastermind behind the scenes

With this idea in mind, Ning Peiya revealed the true nature of this world in front of Chen Ning. No matter whether it was the Poseidon Pavilion, the Tang Sect, the Spirit Pagoda, the Sun and Moon Empire, the Temple of the God of War, or the Poseidon Family, they should not engage in internal fighting, but have a common enemy, called... the Tang Family.

After a moment of silence, Chen Ning said thoughtfully, "Sister Xiaoya, why don't you report this matter to the Sea God Pavilion? Let everyone see the true nature of this world and fight against Tang Wulin and Huo Yuhao together, right?"

“It’s not as simple as you think.” Ning Peiya said helplessly, “There are always people who like to gain something for nothing. They think that even if they eradicate the Tang family, they can’t compete with others. They might as well continue to serve the Tang family as dogs and lick Tang Wulin and Huo Yuhao in order to exchange for a ticket to the God Realm like the original Shrek Five Devils.”

As she was talking, Ning Peiya suddenly realized that something was wrong. If... Chen Ning was the Tang family's bootlicker, then what was the difference between her action and a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth.

Thinking of this, Ning Peiya hurriedly put her arms around Chen Ning's neck, looking like she was ready to start a fight if they had a disagreement.

"Hey! Sister Xiaoya, why are you doing this?"

Chen Ning shook her head and said bitterly, “You don’t have to worry that I will become a lapdog for Tang Wulin and Huo Yuhao. A lapdog is always a lapdog. No matter how hard you try, you can’t turn over and become the master. It’s better to die of old age in the lower realm than to be a slave in the God Realm for a lifetime. I am still very confident in my own talent.”

Chen Ning's attitude made Ning Peiya very worried, but she had no choice but to trust him.

Who made her so talkative and say things that she shouldn't?

……

Seven days passed in a flash, and soon it was the day for the Sun-Moon Empire to hold its coronation ceremony.

As the continent's number one "absolutely neutral" academy, it was natural for them to send representatives to observe this grand ceremony.

The student representatives undoubtedly fell on Ning Peiya, Le Zhengyin and their team. The representatives of the two teams were all genuine members of the Poseidon Pavilion. The top leaders of the Poseidon Pavilion in Mingdu could naturally feel at ease with them as the leaders of the student representatives.

There was nothing wrong with this arrangement, but the strange thing was that some idiot suggested in the Poseidon Pavilion meeting room that the current arrangement was not appropriate. The captains of the two teams were all from the younger generation of the Poseidon Pavilion, which undermined the fair character of Shrek Academy. A group that did not belong to any force should be arranged to represent Shrek Academy in the mission to Mingdu.

Just like that, Huo Yuhao was honored to become the representative of Shrek Academy. He led his team members and followed Ning Peiya and Le Zhengyin's team to board their exclusive train.

As the soul guide train started moving, Chen Ning hurriedly pulled Ning Peiya aside, leaned over to her ear, and whispered, "Sister Xiaoya, we all know how the Sea God Pavilion usually acts. Given their domineering nature, it is unlikely that they would go to such lengths to temporarily arrange for Huo Yuhao and his party to follow us to Mingdu. This should be the so-called plot effect, right?"

Ning Peiya pondered and said, "That should be the case. Something unexpected will definitely happen at this coronation ceremony..."

"What plot effect, what unexpected thing, what are you talking about?"

As a clear female voice rang out, the two of them felt their hearts tremble and turned around hurriedly, looking for the source of the voice.

All they saw was... Le Zhengyin was blinking her big, sparkling eyes and looking at them with curiosity.

Ah this...

Ning Peiya said with a guilty look on her face: "Zheng, Sister Zhengyin, is there anything you want to talk to us about?"

Le Zhengyin curled her lips and said unhappily, "What's the matter? Ning Peiya, did you get kicked in the head by a donkey? Didn't we agree before we got on the bus? It's boring during the ride, so let's play a game of Three Kingdoms for a while." "Wait, don't make jokes here. You just said that something unexpected would happen on this trip to Mingdu. Where did you get this information?"

Ning Peiya: “…”

Chen Ning: “…”

Le Zhengyin still had some sense of propriety and lowered her voice to a level that only the three of them could hear, so as not to alarm Xu Yucheng and Luo Guixing who were in the same carriage.

At this moment, Chen Ning wanted to slap himself!

Is she being controlled by the plot? Can she talk about this topic directly? Why not communicate through voice transmission?

The scene was very embarrassing.

After a long silence, Ning Peiya finally spoke up to explain: "Sister Zhengyin, well... the Sun Moon Empire has many enemies, and there will definitely be some enemies who will come to sabotage this coronation ceremony. Isn't this unexpected?"

Le Zhengyin: “…”

Are you treating her like a child?
Seeing that Ning Peiya didn't want to talk, Le Zhengyin didn't ask any more questions. He came and sat down opposite the two of them, and took out a collector's edition of Three Kingdoms from his arms.

"Kill with a knife."

Le Zhengyin threw out a bamboo leaf card and pointed in the direction of Chen Ning.

"I'll dodge." Chen Ning threw out a bamboo leaf card, glanced at Le Zhengyin's pretty face, and couldn't help asking, "Sister Zhengyin, why do you think the Sun Moon Empire wants to restore the imperial system? In essence, the imperial system is not much different from the federal system, and the rulers are still the same people."

Le Zhengyin said unhappily, "I'm not a worm in their stomachs, how can I possibly know what they're thinking?"

"But... then again, the five major families have been causing a lot of trouble recently, and have eliminated some of the Holy Spirit Church's strongholds in Douluo Continent."

"They are building momentum for the emperor's ascension to the throne. After a while, things will definitely return to their original state." Ning Peiya frowned and said, "It is said that a new official will start with three fires. The emperor named Xu Tiandu will definitely cause endless trouble after he ascends the throne. They are doing the righteous thing, but I am afraid that the days of Poseidon Pavilion and Shrek Academy will not be easy."

Le Zhengyin echoed, "That's what I mean. The whole world belongs to the king. The federation and the empire have different systems. As a member of the Sun Moon Empire, the emperor has issued an appointment decree to the dean of the outer school of Shrek Academy. Will you accept it or not?"

At this moment, the three of them finally realized that the five major families were eager to restore the imperial system in order to allow Poseidon Pavilion to establish itself without bloodshed.

Once Poseidon Pavilion can no longer withstand the pressure of public opinion and is forced to set up its own organization, their ambitions will be completely exposed to the world.

What they mean by "devoting all their efforts to benefiting the world of soul masters" is just a joke. The real purpose of the Sea God Pavilion is to become the emperor of all forces in the Douluo plane! (End of this chapter)
